"You're back." Shen Qianqian rubbed her eyes and said.

"yes, I'm back from a late shift, and you're still working!" Helian Xin's tone was very serious, but it was actually because she was too worried about Shen Qianqian.

"It's dawn, huh?" Shen Qianqian glanced out the window and said with a smile, "I didn't expect that I would look at this thing for so long." ”

"You're still smiling." Helian Xi frowned and glanced at the documents on Shen Qianqian's desk, "What are you looking at, why are you so engrossed?" What kind of important big case is it? ”

"It's the previous case of sexual harassment of underage girls." Shen Qianqian stood up and stretched, "The information faxed over last night kept reading it in a hurry, and I didn't notice the time at all." ”

"Huh?" Helian Xin thought of what Shen Qianqian had mentioned before, "Is that the case that the legal aid center came to you before?" Haven't you already rejected them? ”

"Yes, but the client's daughter came to me in person today in the hope that I can defend her father." Shen Qianqian continued to stretch her upper limbs, "Then I was persuaded by her." So now I'm the lawyer representing that case. ”

"Didn't you still say that the case didn't have to be fought?" Helian Xin put the document back on the table, "Why do you accept it now?" ”

"I guess I don't want my compatriots to be wronged." Shen Qianqian smiled and said, "I now believe that he is innocent." ”

"You've found evidence?" Helian Xin looked at Shen Qianqian and asked confidently.

"Not yet, I'll have to wait until I see that party today." Shen Qianqian glanced at the clock on the wall, "It's not good, I made an appointment to go to the detention center at ten o'clock, and now there are only five hours left." ”

"Then why don't you hurry up and go to sleep, how can you meet the person concerned with this dignity now." Helian Xin pushed Shen Qianqian out of the room, and then walked all the way upstairs, "I'll wake you up at half past nine later, prepare food for you on the way and call a taxi." ”

"That's really bothering you, obviously you've just gotten off work." Shen Qianqian said embarrassedly.

"It's okay, I can continue to sleep after you're gone." Helian Xin smiled and sent Shen Qianqian back to her bedroom.

"Then you should take a break." Shen Qianqian leaned on the door frame and said.

"Uh-huh, got it. You can go to sleep in peace. Helian Xin agreed with a smile, and then helped Shen Qianqian close the door.

At ten o'clock, Shen Qianqian appeared at the detention center on time, and after meeting with Johnson, an assistant at the legal aid center, the police officer in charge confirmed the identities of the two, and then finally met Zhou Yunqiang after being shackled by the iron door.

Zhou Yunqiang, who has been in the detention center for more than a month, is much more emaciated than the last time Johnson came. At first, he sat on the other side of the table, and when he saw Shen Qianqian and Johnson coming in, he tried to turn around. But since the handcuff fixtures were in the middle of the table, he ended up with a slight sideways and a head over.

Shen Qianqian knew that this was his reaction to Shen Qianqian's female identity, but Shen Qianqian only smiled slightly, and then sat down with Johnson.

"Excuse me, officer, could you please open his handcuffs?" Shen Qianqian turned her head and glanced at the accompanying police officer and asked.

"Are you sure?" The police officer knew Zhou Yunqiang's identity, so he hesitated.

"I'm sure." Shen Qianqian said with a smile, "My client did not commit such a crime as murder and arson, not to mention that I have an accompanying assistant by my side, so it will be fine." ”

"Well, since you insist." The police officer stepped forward and untied Zhou Yunqiang's handcuffs, and then instructed Shen Qianqian, "If there is any problem, shout, I am at the door." ”

"Okay, thank you." Shen Qianqian smiled and watched the police officer leave.

Zhou Yunqiang, who was on the opposite side, moved his joints a little after the handcuffs were untied, and then turned around completely, leaving only a back.

Shen Qianqian had expected Zhou Yunqiang's reaction, but she felt that instead of forcing Zhou Yunqiang to face herself, it was better to find a way to make Zhou Yunqiang accept her identity, which would be more helpful to the progress of the case.

"Hello Mr. Zhou." Shen Qianqian began to introduce herself, "I am Shen Qianqian, a lawyer appointed by the legal aid center of the municipal government. I will be the lawyer representing you in your case. ”

In this small room, only Shen Qianqian's voice and the slight breathing of the three people could be heard, and Zhou Yunqiang did not react at all.

Shen Qianqian tried to figure out Zhou Yunqiang's mental activities and facial expressions at this time, and then continued: "The Legal Aid Center told me that you asked a Chinese lawyer to defend you, so they found me. ”

Zhou Yunqiang remained motionless.

"But I refused at first." Shen Qianqian continued to sing a one-man show, trying to arouse Zhou Yunqiang's interest, "Because I heard about the charges you were charged with, and your attitude towards Emily last time." ”

"But yesterday your daughter approached me and asked me to defend you." Shen Qianqian said and handed Wang Jiayu's handwritten letter to Johnson and asked him to walk over and hand it to Zhou Yunqiang.

"This is her handwritten letter, I hope you will change it after reading it." Shen Qianqian looked at Zhou Yunqiang, who had her back to her, hesitated for a while, but finally took the letter in Johnson's hand, and her heart instantly let go of half of it.

Shen Qianqian gestured to Johnson, then stood up with her briefcase and went to the door to ring the doorbell, and the police officer opened the door for her from the outside.

"This letter has been checked, you can keep it and read it slowly." Shen Qianqian said with a smile at Zhou Yunqiang's back, and then left the reception room with Johnson.

"Do you have a question for me?" Shen Qianqian suddenly asked Johnson on the way back.

"Yes, yes." Johnson smiled awkwardly, "You've seen through it." ”

"Just ask." Shen Qianqian said generously.

"Actually, it was a surprise for us to turn around and accept our request this time, and we are happy and hope that you will pay attention to the fact that there is not much time left before the trial." Johnson hinted.

"I see what you mean." Shen Qianqian smiled and said, "But I believe that no matter how much I say to his back today, it will not be as effective as the few words that his daughter said on that letter." If I don't have a lot of time, I need to give him plenty of time to think. ”

"Have you read the letter? Johnson asked.

"I've seen it, and his daughter wrote it in front of me." Shen Qianqian said, "It's a very touching letter, even if I, an outsider, can't help but cry when I read it." ”

"Do you think his daughter's letter will make him open his mouth and cooperate with your work?" Johnson continued.

"No, Zhou Yunqiang doesn't need to speak." Shen Qianqian smiled mysteriously, "To be exact, it is the right choice for him not to speak." ”

"What does that mean?" Johnson looked at Shen Qianqian with a suspicious expression.

"Have you ever heard of 'selective aphasia'?" Shen Qianqian asked.

"No, I've only heard of aphasia." Johnson shook his head.

"That's right, like you, I've never heard of selective aphasia." Shen Qianqian said with a smile, "Not only you and me, but even the entire medical community now does not have this concept. ”

"So where does the word come from?" Johnson was a little confused the more he listened.

"This word, or this disease, was told to me by Zhou Yunqiang's daughter." Shen Qianqian began to explain to Johnson what Wang Jiayu said to her before, "I only need to let Zhou Yunqiang undergo a thorough psychological test now, because aphasia is due to the lesions of brain tissue related to language function, such as brain trauma, brain tumors, brain inflammation, etc., which cause the patient's ability to understand and express the human communicative symbol system, especially the comprehension and expression of speech, vocabulary, grammar and other components, language structure and the content and meaning of language. and the decline of the cognitive processes of language that underlie language and the impairment of function. But Zhou Yunqiang did not have such an injury, so his illness must be psychological. It's just that the outward appearance is similar to aphasia. ”

"So you don't need Zhou Yunqiang to speak, because in front of so many women in the court, not opening his mouth can show that he does have a psychological disorder." Johnson understood Shen Qianqian's strategy, "And Zhou Yunqiang doesn't need to be cross-examined by the other party's plaintiff!" ”

"That's right!" Shen Qianqian said with a smile, "I think if I go directly to him and ask him, he will definitely refuse without hesitation, so it is better to let his daughter convince him." ”

"Great!" Johnson couldn't help but praise, "As the No. 1 Chinese lawyer, your entry point is really unique." ”

"Don't say that, in fact, I also passively do it according to the development of things." Shen Qianqian smiled embarrassedly.

Just when the two of them felt that there was hope of winning the lawsuit, Shen Qianqian's mobile phone suddenly rang:

"I'm Shen Qianqian, please speak."

"Lawyer Shen, just now Zhou Yunqiang hit the wall in his cell, and now he has been sent to the hospital for first aid."

"What? Okay, I'll rush over right away. ”

Johnson looked at Shen Qianqian and suddenly asked with a serious expression, "What happened?" ”

"Zhou Yunqiang just committed suicide." Shen Qianqian let out a long sigh.

By the time Shen Qianqian and the others arrived at the hospital, Zhou Yunqiang's condition had basically stabilized, and he was still in the intensive care unit for observation.

"Doctor, I'm sorry I'm Zhou Yunqiang's lawyer." Shen Qianqian saw Zhou Yunqiang's attending doctor come out of the intensive care room, and hurriedly stepped forward to show him his lawyer's card, and then asked, "I want to ask about Zhou Yunqiang's current situation next day." ”

"The patient's vital signs are basically stable now, and he can be transferred to the general ward after about 24 hours of observation without deterioration." The doctor explained simply.

"Shall we not see him until then?" Shen Qianqian was a little anxious.

"You can go to the general ward and visit. Still," the doctor frowned, "there's no guarantee when he'll wake up." ”

"Okay, thank you, doctor." Shen Qianqian sat down on the bench next to her with an expression of disbelief on her face.
