In Shanghai, at a construction site under the cool sun, Yuan Abao and his co-workers took advantage of a short break at noon to hide in the shade of a tree and eat a boxed lunch. There are countless office buildings like the Zhucheng International Building, and the men and women working there come and go around them, but no one cares about Yuan Abao's existence, even if they have knocked down countless stumps in those buildings.

After eating, Yuan Abao and his co-workers rested against the trunk of the tree. The work had drained most of the water out of their bodies, everyone closed their eyes and conserved their strength, and no one had the idea of chatting.

Just as Yuan Abao's upper eyelids were glued to his upper and lower eyelids, his mobile phone rang. Because of the noise to the rest of the worker, everyone urged him to answer the phone quickly.

"Hello? Who? He didn't get angry to ask.

"Hello, is it Mr. Yuan Abao?" The other party's voice sounded like a young woman, and at Yuan Abao's age, because of the constraints in her pocket, she was not interested in the woman who took the initiative to send it to the door. But in less than a minute, the phone rang again.

This time he picked up the phone scoldingly, but the other party listened to him patiently, and then said, "Please go back to Zhucheng, it's best to hire a lawyer, we want to negotiate with you about the custody of your daughter Yuan Eucalyptus." ”

"What? What bullshit lawyer? Who will I negotiate with for custody of my daughter? ”

"Your other daughter, Yuan Shanshan."

In the largest conference room of Bohai Law Firm on the 36th floor of Zhucheng International Building, Lisa is cautiously reporting to Mr. Lin on the progress of her work.

In this case, Lin Zhiyi recommended himself to be Mr. Lin's assistant, and recommended Zhao Lilin and Lisa, who were studying at Shanghai Jiaotong University, to him. Before Lin Zhiyi revealed his identity, she left a good impression on him.

After all, Lin Zhiyi has not obtained a lawyer's practice certificate, and the main work is still handed over to Zhao Lilin, who already has a certificate.

After listening to her report, Mr. Lin nodded, "Okay, Lisa, Yuan Abao, you continue to follow up." It's best to arrange for him to go back to Zhucheng in the near future, and then talk to him and have more information. ”

"Lin Zhiyi, apart from you, does anyone else know about Yuan Abao's domestic violence against his two daughters?"

"Yuan Shanshan said that she still has her grandmother and her mother at home."

"Yuan Shanshan's grandmother passed away last year." Lisa added.

"Then contact her mother again."

"I've already called her, and she doesn't know anything, and she listens to her husband about everything at home." Lisa continued. "Teacher Lin, even if Yuan Shanshan's parents did not fulfill their obligation to raise her, at most they would only order corrections and fines, even if we can prove that Yuan Shanshan's father had domestic violence, the court will not deprive her parents of custody, and it is the responsibility and obligation of parents to raise their children. Unless ......"

"Yuan Shanshan's father's domestic violence has reached the point of abuse." Mr. Lin returned to Lisa's question. "But the court may award custody of Yuan to her mother if it deems it to be better for her upbringing."

"What we need to do now is to try to obtain evidence of Yuan Shanshan's father's domestic violence and consider whether there are abusive tendencies; Then investigate her mother and her to see what their strengths are. Lin Zhiyi, Yuan Shanshan's side will be handed over to you to be responsible, and Lisa will be responsible for Yuan Shanshan's parents. Let's deal with it as soon as possible. ”

"Got it, Dad."

"Okay, Mr. Lin." Lisa looked at Mr. Lin with adoring eyes, she would never have imagined that the not-so-intelligent intern in the printing room was his son. She is also grateful to Lin Zhiyi for giving her a chance to further learn from her idol. Even though this is only a small civil case, she strives to be perfect in every detail.

Mr. Lim also seems to be appreciative of her performance.

In order to repay Lin Zhiyi's recommendation, after she walked out of the office with Lin Zhiyi, she proposed, "Please go to dinner at noon." ”

But Lin Zhiyi rejected her kindness, and now he only thinks about discussing the case with Yuan Shanshan as soon as possible, with her current source of work income, I am afraid that it will leave a bad image for the court.

"Okay. After that, if you have the chance, you must let me treat you to a good meal. ”

Lin Zhiyi nodded perfunctorily, and just walked out of the door of the Zhucheng International Building, Qian Wenwen suddenly appeared in front of him, and he said in surprise, "Why are you here?" ”

"If you don't take the initiative to come to me, I can only take the initiative." Qian Wenwen took out the lunch she made for Lin Zhiyi from her bag, "No, I haven't eaten lunch yet." ”

Lin Zhiyi's heart was touched by Qian Wenwen's gentleness and thoughtfulness, so she agreed to eat together at noon. They found a bench on the side of the road and sat side by side to enjoy the bento together.

Qian Wenwen's cooking was a little stiff, and Lin Zhiyi didn't like it very much, so he barely stuffed a few bites.

"The internship at the law firm must be very busy. Have you lost weight? ”

"Fortunately, it's nothing compared to regular employees." Lin Zhiyi closed the lunch.

"Will you become a lawyer in the future?" Seeing that Lin Zhiyi didn't eat much, Qian Wenwen also lost her appetite, and these home-cooked dishes she made were probably not as good as the food of the eldest young master's family, she thought to herself in her heart, but she said something else.

This time, Lin Zhiyi no longer wanted to deny it as categorically as before, and Qian Wenwen vaguely felt that her dream of forming a band with him was about to be shattered.

"Sure enough, I will inherit my father's mantle. And what about the band? Is it that without Yuan Shanshan, you are not in the mood to form a band! ”

"What are you talking about, that's not the case at all!"

Qian Wenwen traced the source of her fault to Yuan Shanshan every time, and Lin Zhiyi was already tired of it. She always makes too many guesses, and she always thinks too badly of people's hearts.

Qian Wenwen also angrily took back her lunch box from Lin Zhiyi's hand, "I knew I would have upset you so much, so I wouldn't come." She packed her things and got up and walked in the direction of the subway station.

Lin Zhiyi chased forward to grab her hand, only to find that both of her fingers were wrapped in Bondi tape, "What's wrong with your hand?" ”

"I accidentally cut it while cooking. I knew you had this attitude, what else did I bother with! Qian Wenwen said aggrievedly.

As soon as Qian Wenwen was sad, Lin Zhiyi felt heartache. He was sometimes annoyed by his soft-heartedness.

He used all the sweet words he could think of at this time, after all, he was not like Au

the

That's how to coax girls, but after the two have been together for a long time, Lin Zhiyi has naturally learned something.

After coaxing Qian Wenwen, Lin Zhiyi rushed to Yuan Shanshan's new address, which was the contact information she took the initiative to leave for her lawyer.

During the day, Yuan Shanshan, who has made up for a short sleep, will accompany Yuan Eucalyptus at home to learn a little about the children's picture books she bought from the bookstore.

When Lin Zhiyi entered the door, Yuan Eucalyptus was reading the story of Snow White, and when she saw Lin Zhiyi, she pointed at him and said, "Prince, Prince!" ”

"Don't call people around, call me brother!"

"Oh." Yuan Yu picked up the picture book in frustration and returned to the room to continue to immerse herself in the beautiful world of fairy tales.

Yuan Shanshan poured Lin Zhiyi a glass of water, although the house in the old city was dilapidated, it was much cleaner than Yuan Shanshan's home he had visited before. He took a few sips of water and gave Yuan Shanshan a retelling of what Mr. Lin had told him in the morning.

Yuan Shanshan thought for a moment after hearing this, "Is there any difference between beating and abuse?" ”

"Abuse is much worse than teaching children in general, did your father do anything to permanently damage your body or mind?"

"He asked me to go to work when I was 12 years old. But it was of my own free will, because the money he gave us every month was not enough, and only when I went to work could the eucalyptus eat some meat. ”

Lin Zhiyi sighed and carefully recorded what Yuan Shanshan said in his work notebook.

"What else?" Lin Zhiyi felt that he was brushing away Yuan Shanshan's bloody scars layer by layer.

"He said that when we were older in the grade, we would marry and exchange the bride price. I've heard that he found a lame old man for Eucalyptus, and I'm not going to let her marry. ”

"Listen to whom?"

"Said a worker in our village who worked with him."

Lin Zhiyi hesitated, but still wrote down this article in his notebook, which was not very convincing about the contingencies that would happen in the future, and at most he could only win the sympathy of the judge. In this era, this kind of behavior is no less than selling daughters in the old society.

"Sister...... Sister ......", Yuan Eucalyptus took the picture book and asked Yuan Shanshan about the words she didn't recognize, but these words, Yuan Shanshan almost repeated them more than 30 times. She took Yuan to see a doctor, and the doctor said that she only had the intelligence of a six-year-old child, and even if her brain continued to develop, her intelligence would not improve much.

She patiently taught Yuan Eucalyptus, and she couldn't help but feel sour in her heart. At this moment, a dark cloud obscured the sun outside the window, and the room suddenly became dark.

"Boom!" The sudden sound of thunder frightened Yuan Eucalyptus straight into Yuan Shanshan's arms. "Well, eucalyptus is not afraid, eucalyptus is not afraid. Sister is here. ”

The torrential rain hit the roof of the old house violently, crackling.

Yuan Shanshan thought of the day Yuan Eucalyptus was born, and the rain was as heavy as hail.

She suddenly thought of something, and grabbed Lin Zhiyi's hand violently, startling him.

"What's wrong with you, Yuan Shanshan?"

"It's him, it's he who harmed the eucalyptus like this, is this abuse?"

Yuan Shanshan told Lin Zhiyi about what happened on the day Yuan Eucalyptus was born, she was still young at that time, and the specific situation was not clear, and she could only remember a few fragments. He threw the eucalyptus into the rain. I was soaking wet. He also scolded us for losing money, and I grabbed his foot, but he kicked it away. Eucalyptus had a fever for several days, and he didn't give his grandmother money to go to the doctor. The reason why the eucalyptus has become what it is now is because of his harm......"

Lin Zhiyi recorded the words of Yuan Shanshan word for word, and his heart was touched no less than the thunder that kept flashing outside the house. Yuan Eucalyptus is the best evidence to prove Yuan Abao's abuse of children.
