Chapter 312: Impermanence in prison
After Xiaozhi answered David's call, he immediately drove to the police station where Impermanence turned himself in.
However, when Xiaozhi walked into the door of the police station and asked to see impermanence, he was sternly refused.
Xiaozhi was anxious, but there was nothing he could do. had to walk out of the police station and immediately called to hire a well-known lawyer for impermanence.
At about ten o'clock in the morning the next day, Xiaozhi received a call from his lawyer in the office. He told Xiaozhi that Impermanence refused the lawyer's intervention, saying that he was doing things alone.
The lawyer told Xiaozhi what he had learned concisely.
Impermanence went to the police station and took the initiative to admit that many years ago, when he was driving through an intersection, an elderly couple who ran a red light suddenly rushed to the front of the car. At that time, he didn't have time to brakeγγγγγγ after the incident, he saw that there were no cameras at that intersection, so he drove away.
The police listened to Impermanence's confession and immediately called up the case records of that year. At that time, it was a pedestrian passing by who called the police, and the pedestrian also called the emergency number and personally accompanied the two elderly people who were killed to the hospital. The pedestrian's name is Xue Zhi.
The police asked Impermanence for some details about the accident, and Impermanence's answer was vague, as if he could no longer remember the scene of the incident. Perhaps, this impermanence is not the real perpetrator at all.
However, Impermanence insisted that he was the perpetrator of the accident. The police looked puzzled, but could not find strong evidence.
The lawyer sent by Xiaozhi repeatedly claimed to the police that impermanence was not the perpetrator. He just happened to be passing by at the time, and he couldn't stop to treat the injured because he had something important to attend to that day. For this reason, he has not been able to forgive himself in his heart, and he has been suffering for many years. To turn himself in now is purely to deliberately punish himself in order to obtain the salvation of conscience.
Naturally, the lawyer's words cannot win the trust of the police. However, they could not find a loophole in the confession of impermanence. Two months later, Impermanence was handed over to a local prison and sentenced to three years in prison.
On the first day of his visit after Impermanence's sentencing, Xiaozhi hurried to the prison and finally saw Impermanence.
Impermanence was dressed in a prison uniform, his hair was all shaved, and his big purple and black face became more and more round. His figure, although still burly, has lost a lot of weight, and his original big belly has disappeared.
Xiao Zhi stared at impermanence through a layer of glass, his sword eyebrows tightly locked, and his face was full of anger and incomprehension. He reached out and slowly picked up the phone, his eyes never leaving impermanence.
Hey, Uncle Chang, can you tell me why? Xiao Zhi roared in a low voice.
Impermanence quickly glanced left and right with his eyes, and signaled to Xiaozhi with his eyes that there was a police guard in the house.
Xiaozhi's brows furrowed even more, and his eyes glanced gloomily into the room.
Why, Uncle Chang? Tell me! Koji lowered his voice slightly and asked with a little choked up.
Impermanence looked at Xiao Zhi lovingly, and said quietly and cryptically. No, it's just because I'm your Uncle Chang. Also, Xia Xue must have an explanation, otherwise, if you can't overcome this hurdle in γγγγγγ, it will be difficult for you to reconcile in the future. In her heart, she has always had this pimple, and she has been doubting it for a long timeγγγγγγ
Impermanence said this, the words stopped abruptly, and he gestured to Xiao Zhi with his eyes, and turned his lips towards Xiao Zhi.
Xiao Zhi immediately understood and said with a wry smile. It's me, right? She thinks that person is me! She didn't believe that I would pass by there by such a coincidence. If I had made it over that day, I might have stopped it!
No, Koji, it's not your fault that this matter. Blame them, blame them for being too greedy! For so many years, blackmail again and again, just by virtue of the handle of the matter they held in their hands. Therefore, although the eldest brother is inside, the brothers outside will not spare them easily. Impermanence whispered.
Xiaoji sighed helplessly and said. But Uncle Chang, no matter what, it won't be your turn to make such a big sacrifice.
Impermanence smiled and said. I hope you can live a good life with Xia Xue in the future. I will help her open this knot in her heart, otherwise she may doubt you for the rest of her life! Maybe one day I didn't feel happy, and I ran away againγγγγγγ
Koji looked at impermanence and smiled. Thank you, Uncle Chang! Koji said in a heavy tone. Uncle Chang, I will help you take care of your family outside, don't worry!
After a while, Koji said. The boss of the United States that your eldest brother helped still remembers his kindness back then! Who would have thought that when he helped that boss settle the troubles, he would be so coincidental and be seen by Xia Xue's parentsγγγγγγ
Impermanence immediately let out a few coughs, and tried his best to signal Xiaozhi with his eyes, don't say any more!
Koji nodded at impermanence, and the two of them put down the phone almost at the same time.
Impermanence turned and walked towards the door, his back slightly hunched, as he walked out of the meeting room with the policeman.
Xiaozhi walked out of the prison and looked back at the high walls. It's hard to imagine if impermanence can stand it in the past few years.
Xiaozhi walked alone to the highway outside, looked up at the blue sky and white clouds in the distance, and suddenly felt that all this was so precious. Being able to breathe and jump freely in the sun, and being able to see the sky at any time is not something that everyone can have.
Impermanence has now lost its most simple freedom. Xiao Zhi thought of the original intention of impermanence to do this, and his heart was both moved and uncomfortable, and a pair of beautiful eyes like the moon had already flashed with tears.
Xiaoji drove back to the company and walked into the office, which was already noon.
On the office dining table, a simple and nutritious lunch is placed. But Xiaozhi has no appetite at all, and he can't eat anything.
He leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes tiredly.
It wasn't until the secretary knocked on the door for a long time, but no one responded, so he had to push the door and approach him with broken steps, that he suddenly opened his eyes in alarm.
Seeing that Xiaozhi woke up, the secretary smiled apologetically and said. I'm really sorry, Mr. Xue, for disturbing your rest. However, a lawyer from the United States came to the company, saying that he was looking for you to discuss something.
Xiao Zhi stared at his worried eyes, raised his eyebrows, and asked. Lawyer in the United States? Came to me on purpose?
The secretary nodded emphatically and said. Yes, Mr. Xue, that foreigner is waiting outside the door.
Xiaozhi immediately sat up straight, cleared his throat, and commanded. Then let that man in and see what he has to do with me?" You go make two cups of coffee and have some snacks.
Okay, Mr. Xue, I'll go and prepare! The secretary bowed his head, turned around, twisted his slender body, and walked towards the door with agility and lightness.
A few minutes later, I saw a middle-aged man from the United States, wearing a brown suit and carrying a black cowhide briefcase, walking in with his head held high.
When the man walked in front of him, he and Koji looked at each other in surprise. After a moment of silence, both of them burst out laughing.
It turned out that they had met at the Grand Canyon. At noon that day, Xiaozhi and David went to Xia Xue's dumpling restaurant for dinner, and the lawyer happened to go there at that time, and he sat next to Xiaozhi and David.
Xiao Zhi unconsciously patted his head. What is this called memory? How did you forget about it?
You may be seated! Koji enthusiastically reached out to give up his seat.
The lawyer sat down in a chair in front of Koji's desk, holding his briefcase to his chest with both hands.
The secretary brought two cups of coffee, put them in front of Xiaozhi and the lawyer respectively, and brought down two plates of desserts from the dinner plate and placed them on the table.
Mr. Xue, do you have any other instructions? The secretary asked respectfully.
Not for the time being, you go and get busy first, and I'll call you if there's something. Xiao Zhi smiled indifferently at the secretary and said.
The secretary held the tray in one hand, turned around, and quietly walked out.
Only then did the lawyer speak. Dude, I'm sorry, I'm a little embarrassed by the purpose of my visit. I never thought that the person I was looking for would be you!
Xiao Zhi smiled calmly, leaned back on the back of the chair without care, and said. You have something to do, just say it, it doesn't matter. You have come from afar, and for whatever purpose, I will invite you to dinner in the evening!
The lawyer sighed softly, put the black briefcase on his lap, unzipped the middle, took out a document-like thing, and handed it to Xiaoji.
Koji reached out and picked up the thing, put it in front of his eyes and looked at it carefully. This document, Xiaozhi has already seen in the dumpling restaurant in the Grand Canyon. After reading it, Xiaozhi showed a wry smile on his face.
What do you think? Do you agree to a divorce? Xia Xue has already signed it. The lawyer shrugged his shoulders and asked bluntly.
Xiaozhi gently threw the divorce agreement on the table, got up and walked out from behind the table, and lit a cigarette for himself.
Koji held the cigarette between his fingers, took a puff, and then pushed the cigarette in front of the lawyer.
The lawyer waved his hand and said. Thanks, I don't smoke.
Koji walked up to the lawyer, raised one leg, sat leaning on the edge of the table, and said. Women are headstrong, and they don't know what kind of life they need. Only a man who is a husband can teach women some truths and common sense, so that they can see the world clearly with their eyes open! Without her husband's teachings, most women will confuse right and wrong, and even fail to withstand the temptation from the outside and commit some small mistakes.
The lawyer looked at Xiaozhi with interest, thinking seriously about Xiaozhi's words.
Do you love your wife very much? Xue Zhi. The lawyer asked. From the divorce agreement, he saw Xiaoji's name.
Of course, I love my wife more than my life! So, it's impossible for me to agree to a divorce. In a few days, I will go to the United States to accompany her to give birth, which is what I should do as a husband.
Now, she's just a little confused and not very clear-headed. When she returns to my arms, I promise to bring her back to her senses immediately and never think cranky again.
Xiao Zhi looked at the lawyer coldly and said slowly.
