Chapter 10: Assault

Xiao Xia hesitated whether to give up the case.

Not to mention that when she left the court for two days, there was no legitimate reason to change the defense lawyer or not, even if she herself could not pass the hurdle herself.

That's right, at the beginning, she wanted to stay away from this case because she was afraid, but it was various circumstances and coincidences that forced her to insist, and the purpose of insisting was to finally let go. But things have come to this point, although the director has returned, she has the idea that she must win this lawsuit. Because the ghost's torture of her made her angry, and because of her deep pity for Li Jingming.

She believed that Li Jingming must have been subjected to this ghost to do that kind of intolerable thing, but why did that ghost do that? And how did Li Jingming face the heavy sin of killing his family with his own hands? Is it really good to rescue him? What if the case is given to someone else? Should he be unjustly killed? What's more, even if she fights this lawsuit, how to fight it is a problem. Unless it is proved that Li Jingming was suffering from a mental illness at the time of the incident, which made him incapacitated and incapacitated, he cannot be exempted from liability. And the ghost body is not a mental illness anyway, and no one will believe in such a thing at all.

Of course, Wan Li tried to persuade her to give up the case, and she could understand that he was doing it for her good. But that Ruan Zhan spoke coldly to her, threatening that if she didn't give up, his attitude of ignoring anything in any mess annoyed her, and she wanted to do it well to show him, but she knew that it would not work without that indifferent and ruthless person. Because although he didn't say anything, she really felt safe since she lived with him, and there were no more nightmares and horrible hallucinations.

All sorts of thoughts made her mind confused, and she didn't make any decisions all morning.

"We'll decide after lunch." She gave herself an ultimatum and looked out the window. Only then did I find that the sky was as black as the bottom of a pot, and the wind was full of buildings.

The office door opened with a bang, and Xiao Wang poked his head in. "Sister Yue!"

"Huh?" Xiao Xia was taken aback. Recently, she has always been like this, and the slightest movement can make her heart tremble, and she still wants to handle ghost-related cases like this, and even she feels whimsical.

"Someone is looking for it."

"Oh, Dr. Wan came to me for lunch."

"Not Dr. Wan. It's an aunt who says it's your landlord. ”

"Landlord?" Natsu was surprised. What's the matter with her? Could it be that the War of the Century in her room was exposed the day before yesterday? Confused, she walked to the reception and saw the landlord standing at the window with his back to her.

"Aunt Liu? Are you looking for something with me? She asked.

The landlord turned around, his eyes flashing blue for a moment, and then he laughed silently.

Xiao Xia was stunned, and all the blood in her body rushed to her heart. It was the landlord, Aunt Liu, yes, but the stiffness, the weirdness, and the twisting of the muscles of that smile were familiar to Xiao Xia - in her nightmares, she had seen them when she bumped into ghosts. It's like the face of a funeral paper man, and the expression is all painted.

"Why did you seduce my husband?" The landlord said softly.

"Huh? Who is your husband? Xiao Xia was confused, but still rubbed a few steps towards the door.

"Why did you seduce my husband?" The landlord suddenly screamed, pulled out a sharp knife he had with him, and stabbed it desperately. "Vixen, I slaughtered you and let you seduce someone's husband! Coquette! ”

Because Xiao Xia had already prepared to escape, he narrowly avoided this fatal stab. But the landlord's madness frightened her, and she had to flee in a panic. She ran away in horror, and the landlord persevered in pursuit, causing the whole office to jump and alarm everyone. Some male lawyers tried to stop the landlord, but her strength was so great that she couldn't convince her at all.

"Vixen, I slaughtered you and let you seduce someone's husband! Coquette! She screamed mechanically.

Natsu tripped over a chair in a panic, and the pain in her ankle made her know that this was not a dream. She tried to get up, but the landlord had already arrived and raised the knife.

"I told you not to meddle!" Her expression suddenly ceased to be crazy, but to an indescribable gloom. "Retribution has arrived."

At this moment, Xiao Xia understood that the landlord was also possessed by that ghost, but she could no longer do anything but close her eyes in the face of the sharp knife that was swinging down.

However, the expected pain did not come, but instead I heard the unwilling roar of the landlord, who had been deformed. She opened her eyes and saw Ruan Zhan tightening the landlord's neck with one hand from behind, and grabbing her hand desperately trying to break free with the knife with the other.

"Ten thousand miles!" He called.

Wanli rushed out from the other side, savagely snatched the knife, and slammed the struggling landlord face down on the table. Ruan Zhan turned his back to the crowd, and only Xiao Xia saw his lips moving as if he was reading something, and slapped his palm in the middle of the landlord's head.

"Go straight home." He commanded.

Xiao Xia watched in amazement as the landlord's expression quickly changed from evil to sluggishness, and after letting go of Wanli, he ran out like the wind.

"It's okay, it's okay, it's a misunderstanding." Wanli picked up Xiao Xia and said to everyone and the security guards who rushed up, "This is my patient, who has a dual illness of paranoia and delusion. ”

"She's not delusional that you're her husband!" Xiao Wang said.

His joke made the frightened crowd laugh.

"That's right, so she came to trouble the innocent Xiao Xia, everyone knows that I am good to Xiao Xia!" Wanli's unpretentious admission made everyone breathe a sigh of relief again.

Director Pan looked at the 'battlefield filled with gunpowder' and frowned.

"Doctor Wan," he called Wan Li, "remember that your clinic is on the fourteenth floor, not here, and I hope that doesn't happen." ”

"I know, I'm sorry. I promise it won't happen. ”

"That's good, we're friendly." Director Pan nodded, and then looked at the many subordinates who were still stunned, "Don't be stunned, clean up quickly, what does it look like." And youβ€”" he pointed to Natsu, "don't bring your personal affairs to work in the future." ”

Xiao Xia nodded as busy as a chicken pecking rice, and then didn't care about cleaning up the mess and brought the two men directly into her office.

"She's possessed by that ghost." She announced.

"It's obvious." Ruan Zhan replied lightly.

"It looks like you really just sealed it that day, but it was lifted so quickly?" Wanli asked worriedly.

"It's also obvious."

His indifferent attitude made Xiao Xia a little dissatisfied, "That's it?" I mean- won't you help her get rid of that demon? You should have the ability. Where did she go? ”

"You're really idle, she killed you a minute ago."

"She's demon-possessed, and she doesn't know what she's doing."

"You know what you're doing." Ruan Zhan coldly retorted and sneered. He went to someone's house this morning and came back with bad feelings. He hurriedly made a divination, so that he could get here in time to eliminate the disaster, and it seems that some people don't appreciate it.

"It's not that Ah Zhan doesn't help exorcise ghosts." Wan Li smelled the smell of fire, and hurriedly played a round, "This ghost is very powerful, if you forcibly expel without preparation, it will hurt the parasite, that is, your landlord's body, and if you don't get it right, you will die." ”

"That's right! That's- I'm sorry, I'm wrong to blame the good guys. Xiao Xia changed it when she knew her mistake, but she still didn't understand, "But it's daytime, how can it come out and do evil!" ”

"It's attached to people, so it's not too taboo during the day, but it's easier to manipulate the parasite at night. But todayβ€”" Ruan Zhan looked out the window, the sky was as dark as evening, "this kind of time gave it a chance. ”

"That is, after it folded under your hand that day, it hid in another house, and it is very good at hiding so that you can't find it." Wanli said.

"Isn't it just because some people's RPG level is not high!" Xiao Xia seized the opportunity to sarcastically mock people, of course, he would not miss it.

Ruan Zhan glared at Wan Li, blaming him for being too talkative. Wan Li pretended not to see the situation of the two people, and continued to ask: "Why did it choose the landlord?" I've heard that she lives on the first floor, and it's a long journey. ”

"Because the landlord is familiar with Miss Yue's situation. Since it can't get on the ghost smoothly, of course it will find another way to kill her. ”

"What do you mean?" Xiao Xia asked in disgust, "It won't let me go?" ”

"Don't you understand?" Wanli interjected, "If it doesn't go, you're in big trouble." From the very beginning when you took over this case, everything was directed at you. I don't know why it wanted to attack Li Jingming, but you probably got in the way of the final result it wanted, so it wanted you to die from beginning to end. Let's give up on this case. ”

Going around and around, the problem is still this!
