Chapter 14: It turned out to be a scapegoat
The next morning, a misty drizzle fell in the sky, enveloping the entire city of SZ in a hazy world.
Looking at the drizzle outside the window, Shangguan Yang's mood was extremely heavy, although he had been working hard to collect relevant evidence about Chen Delou's vehicle accident in the past few days, no matter how hard he tried, the evidence he could find was still very limited.
"Is there really no way?" Shangguan Yang gently pushed open the window, feeling the cool breeze blowing in from the window and the little drizzle in the wind, and asked himself secretly in his heart.
Since Shangguan Yang returned to the lawyer's club from the First People's Hospital, he has not closed his eyes all night, and his mind is full of pictures of Yang Shicheng being seriously injured in order to protect himself and the scene of the female teacher named Meng Lu who is still lying in the hospital.
"I thought there was nothing in this world that the law couldn't solve, why don't the bad guys still get the punishment they deserve, and it's always the good guys who are hurt and the ones who suffer!" Shangguan Yang closed his eyes, felt the wind and rain blowing in outside the window, and said slowly with a very helpless face.
In the five years since he became a lawyer, all the lawsuits that Shangguan Yang has won before are some bad guys who have no background identity, and now he meets Chen Delou, who can cover the sky with one hand, which makes Shangguan Yang feel a sense of powerlessness.
"Buzz~!"
"Buzz~!"
Just as Shangguan Yang was immersed in boundless remorse, the mobile phone in his pocket suddenly began to vibrate.
"Shanhe, what's wrong?" After Shangguan Yang answered the phone, he said in a calm voice.
"Shangguan, have you watched the news?" The excited voice of Guihai Shanhe came from the phone, which made Shangguan Yang a little curious in his heart.
"News? What's wrong? After Shangguan Yang heard Guihaishanhe's words, he hurriedly walked into the living room, turned on the TV, and looked at the news that was being played, his face suddenly became a little stunned.
"How so?" Shangguan Yang held the mobile phone in one hand and the remote control in the other, and said in a voice full of incomprehension.
At this time, the vehicle accident that caused the female teacher to be hit by a car was being broadcast on the TV screen, and the perpetrator was arrested by the police, and the perpetrator who was arrested by the police turned out to be the scar who wanted to plot against himself and Yang Shicheng yesterday.
"I don't know the specific situation very well, when I just saw the news, I thought I was wrong, so I made a special call to the Public Security Bureau to confirm the matter, what I didn't expect was that Chen Delou actually found a scapegoat!" Guihai Shanhe's voice at this moment also said with some anger and anger.
"What did the police do?" After Shangguan Yang heard Guihaishanhe's words, he hurriedly asked.
"I heard that a case has been filed and this fake perpetrator will be sentenced to five years in prison!" Guihai Shanhe told Shangguan Yang the inside story he knew.
"If I'm not mistaken, this should be a substitute ghost that Chen Delou spent money to find for himself, this matter has been filed by the police, and it is obviously Chen Delou who is also a ghost in it! Otherwise, the case wouldn't have been filed so quickly! The sound of returning to the sea and mountains sounded again.
"Okay! I know! After Shangguan Yang hung up the phone, after turning off the TV, the whole person collapsed directly on the sofa.
"Did I do it wrong in the first place? Hehe, I thought that I could do something for the people with my own knowledge, so that honest people would not suffer, but now it seems that he is vulnerable in front of power! Shangguan Yang said with a self-deprecating smile on his face.
Not long after the news was broadcast, Ouyang Xing, Ni Wenjing and others all knew about it, and when they saw that the perpetrator who was arrested by the police turned out to be a middle-aged man with a scar on his face instead of Chen Delou, they had already guessed the inside story in their hearts.
After Shangguan Yang left the lawyer's club, after buying some fruits and flowers on the road, he drove his white Volkswagen directly to an orthopedic hospital.
After entering this orthopedic hospital, Shangguan Yang went to the door of a ward on the second floor.
"Knock knock!"
"Please come in!"
Not long after Shangguan Yang rang, a very soft voice came from inside.
After pushing open the door, a young woman wearing a hospital gown with a plaster on her left leg looked towards Shangguan Yang.
The woman was about twenty-four or five years old, and although she was wearing a hospital gown, she still couldn't hide the bookish temperament she had.
"Who are you looking for?" The woman looked at Shangguan Yang and asked with some curiosity.
"Hello! My name is Shangguan Yang! Shangguan Yang looked at the woman and said with a gentle smile.
"It turns out that you are Shangguan's lawyer!" After the woman heard Shangguan Yang's words, a smile suddenly appeared on her face, and she hurriedly motioned for Shangguan Yang to sit down.
"I've heard my dad talk about you, and I'm so grateful for helping us!" The woman said to Shangguan Yang excitedly.
"You're welcome, in fact, you don't have to thank me for anything, I haven't been able to really help you in this matter, in fact, I should say sorry to you!" Shangguan Yang's face was full of guilt, and he looked at Meng Lu and said.
"Huh?"
"But I just saw a report on the news that the person who injured me before has been arrested by the police!" After Meng Lu heard Shangguan Yang's words, he couldn't help but look at Shangguan Yang curiously and said.
"The man who was arrested by the police is nothing more than a scapegoat, and the real perpetrator is still at large!" Shangguan Yang's voice was full of apologies, and he looked at Meng Lu and said slowly.
"Actually, it's nothing, how can people like us at the grassroots level go against those who are rich and rich? It's great that this matter has been solved for this part, thank you very much! Meng Lu raised her head and looked at Shangguan Yang with a smile on her face, and said softly.
"But~!"
"Lawyer Shangguan, it's really nothing!" When Meng Lu saw Shangguan Yang's appearance of wanting to speak and stopped, he raised his right hand, gently shook it towards Shangguan Yang and said with a smile.
"Thank you!" When Shangguan Yang saw Meng Lu's smile, his heart suddenly warmed slightly, he has been practicing as a lawyer for so long, it is rare for someone to be so considerate of himself. If it were someone else, knowing that his lawsuit had not been completely won, although he would not say anything, his expression and heart were still very dissatisfied, and Guan Yang had already known this.
"Lawyer Shangguan, I wonder if we can be friends?" Meng Lu looked at Shangguan Yang and said with a serious smile.
"Of course you can, being able to make friends with my teacher is something I've always dreamed of!" Shangguan Yang stretched out his right hand towards Meng Lu and said with a smile, "Nice to meet you!" ”
"Me too!"
"Nice to meet you!"
Seeing this, Meng Lu also stretched out his right hand and gently shook it with Shangguan Yang.
