Zhu Shan finished eating the things on the table, briefly cleaned up the table, and then went to clean up the guest room.

She did all of this, and it was just a little past nine o'clock in the evening.

What is usually a blink of an eye suddenly becomes extremely difficult.

After Zhu Shan washed up, she nestled in the quilt and looked at her mobile phone, and someone on the Internet had already revealed that many high-level executives of the Indo-Japanese Group and many of the *** involved in the incident were taken away by the police.

The scope is getting wider and wider.

Other than that, there is no other news.

Zhu Shan extinguished the phone and put it under the pillow.

She hugged the violent bear and closed her eyes to sleep, but she couldn't sleep at all.

Until Ling Yue came, she didn't fall asleep.

Ling Yue only carried a schoolbag, stood in the hallway to change her shoes, and was not surprised to see Zhu Shan coming out of the room.

I understand the truth, but the heart can't control it.

It's no wonder you can sleep.

Ling Yue put down her schoolbag and sat down on the sofa looking a little tired: "Peppa, how much do you know? Tell me all!"

Zhu Shan walked over and sat down.

She hunched her waist slightly, her elbows resting on her knees, and her small hands covering her face.

The light came from the side, and she was weak and helpless.

Zhu Shan's tone was very fine: "I only know that he entered the Indo-Japanese Group for a purpose, and my father's business, he said that it was related to the Indo-Japanese Group."

Ling Yue frowned, "What else?"

"It's gone." Zhu Shan shook her head and whispered, "I don't know anything else."

Ling Yue sighed, leaned back on the sofa with his eyes closed, and gently rubbed his head with his palm.

The living room was so quiet that Zhu Shan's heavy snort could be heard, getting denser and denser.

Ling Yue opened her eyes and pulled out a piece of paper to poke her shoulder: "Why are you crying again?"

"No... Crying." Her lips pursed tightly.

"Don't cry, your eyes are swollen."

Zhu Shan put down her little hand, tears were everywhere, she took the tissue to wipe her tears, and felt deeply powerless.

That feeling of powerlessness was like a hand reaching out of the darkness, dragging her every moment.

She struggled desperately, but she couldn't break free.

She regretted it.

Zhu Shan choked her throat: "He told me not to ask, I really didn't ask anything, I don't know anything......

"My brother doesn't want to say it, even if you do your best, he won't tell you, so I don't blame you."

"I know." Zhu Shan nodded, "But I just blame myself, I can't do anything, even a little."

Zhu Shan knows that she is the most ordinary kind of person in the world, and she also accepts that she is an ordinary person.

But now, she hates being ordinary.

If she has the ability, she can do something.

Ling Yue sighed, "I feel the same way, I don't know anything about him."

Zhu Shan looked sideways at Ling Yue.

She immediately adjusted her emotions and took a breath to ease her crying: "Does Uncle and Aunt know?"

"They have entered the mountain, there is no signal, they can't get out for ten days and half a month, and they won't know for the time being."

"So what are we going to do now?"

"Wait!" Ling Yue raised his eyes to look at Zhu Shan, with a rare seriousness, "Wait for news!"

Zhu Shan nodded.

"I watched the video, although there is no specific amount of money for the crimes reported by my brother, but there are several *** relationships, the number will definitely not be small, and the relationship network must be very large, which is the reason why he wants to publicly report with the police at the press conference, even if there is a problem in the middle, this report will not be disclosed as it is now." Ling Yue sighed, "I just can't figure it out, what does this have to do with your father's business."

Zhu Shan shook her head: "I can't figure it out either, he didn't mention my father's affairs at all."

Moreover, her father was just a college professor and had nothing to do with these things.

Ling Yue narrowed her eyes: "I'm afraid that my brother didn't stop it completely

If the chain of interests is broken, will it be ...... in it?"

He paused for a moment, and when he saw Zhu Shan's red and swollen eyes full of tears, he immediately changed his words: "My brother shouldn't make such a low-level mistake!"

Zhu Shan clenched her fingers and responded, "Definitely not!"

But this sentence still took root in Zhu Shan's heart, and she was even more afraid.

The next morning, Zhu Shan got up early, she didn't look at her phone, washed up and changed into sportswear and went for a run.

My head is a mess, and I don't feel tired when I run.

Zhu Shan bought breakfast before going upstairs, and as soon as she entered the door, she heard Ling Yue on the phone, listening to the conversation as if she was asking someone she knew to help find out the news.

Zhu Shan put the breakfast out, and Ling Yue also hung up the phone and walked over.

The two of them ate breakfast without saying a word.

In the end, it was Zhu Shan who spoke first: "Can... Can you find out the news?"

Ling Yue soaked in the fritters, didn't look at Zhu Shan, and shook his head slightly.

Zhu Shan pursed her lips: "It's okay, we have to believe Ling Xiao."

Ling Yue nodded.

Zhu Shan didn't eat much, so she went back to her room to take a shower first.

She didn't sleep for two hours last night, but because she ran in the morning, she was in extra good spirits.

Zhu Shan sat at her desk and swiped the news on the Internet.

Most of the remarks about Ling Xiao on the Internet revolve around what he said and did, whether it was compliant or not, whether it was illegal or not, and the deep-rooted prejudice against the position of a lawyer.

Zhu Shan opened the video production software and edited out what she had filmed some time ago.

Originally, I just wanted to understand what I had photographed in the six years that I missed Ling Xiao, but now I can play a role.

She researched information in many ways, wrote a manuscript, and then made a good video and posted it on various platforms.

This video is a shallow, documentary about the legal industry.

It is also Zhu Shan's explanation of those remarks about Ling Xiao on the Internet.

However, the video did not make much of a splash in the huge online world.

Zhu Shan felt that she could do too little and too little.

The same is true for Ling Yue, everyone who can be found has been found, which also proves the complexity and confidentiality of this matter.

These two people, these two people who are happy every time they meet, in the past few days, they only have simple and pale life conversations, and they are afraid of poking each other's collapse points.

Although none of them thought of a solution, at least, when they sat down to eat three meals a day, they would feel a little support from each other.

On the fourth day when there was no news of Ling Xiao, the news on the Internet that Ren Xingyan was arrested at the port at midnight.

The official account of the police issued a brief report on the matter, saying that the matter is under investigation.

On the fifth day, the police issued a slightly detailed police report, which roughly announced the internal violations and crimes of the Indo-Japanese Group over the years, as well as the crimes of fake bribery and fraud and corruption in cooperation with many *** groups.

The most discussed on the Internet is the astronomical amount in the circular, nearly 10 billion yuan.

And about Ling Xiao, there is still no news.

But on this day, Ling Xiao came out of the police station.

He didn't contact Zhu Shan immediately, he had more important things.

He called Li Shang and told him to bring the materials he had prepared earlier to pick him up.

The two went to Yuhe City Prison together.

Sitting at the wide table, after waiting for a while, the sound of the iron door unlocking was heard not far away, and a thin man wearing a prison uniform and handcuffs, with a black and yellow face, walked in slowly.

He sat down and looked up at the two men across from him.

One has a mild complexion, the other has sharp eyebrows.

Chen Faqiang's eyes were blank, he put his hand under the table, and asked, "What is the matter with me?"

Li Shang calmly took out the information in the document bag and read: "Chen Faqiang, 45 years old, on November 26, 2013, at 9:48 a.m., he drove a taxi in the second section of Qingfu Road and injured a woman due to improper operation, Xu Nian. After getting out of the car to check the injury, he chose to evade inaction, while

As a result, Xu Nian died in a timely manner after being sent to the hospital, and was convicted of intentional homicide and sentenced to life imprisonment in accordance with the law."

Chen Faqiang's fingers under the table rubbed slightly: "I have already taken the Fa, what are you still doing?"

Li Shang put the documents away and said in a flat tone: "Do you know about the Indo-Japanese Group? You can watch the news in prison, right?"

Chen Faqiang raised his head, there was a moment of panic in his eyes, and then he quickly lowered his head.

Li Shang: "It is impossible to say what will happen to the Indo-Japanese Group in the future, but Ren Xianli's crime cannot be executed."

Chen Faqiang's tone was stiff: "I... I don't know, I haven't heard of it."

"Really?" Li Shang took out another piece of information, put it on the table, and pushed it over, "Your son, since he studied abroad 8 years ago, was funded by Ren Xianli's private account on time every month."

"My son was sponsored through regular channels!! Chen Faqiang raised his head, his pupils dilated slightly, and his handcuffed hands slammed the tabletop hard.

Because of his thinness, his eyeballs bulged out, and he said in a low voice, "I don't know about the rest!"

Li Shang didn't panic at all, and took out another document: "There are also your wife's monthly medical expenses and nursing fees, which are also allocated on time in Ren Xianli's private account every month."

Chen Faqiang dodged his eyes, withdrew his hands, and put them under the table.

Li Shang: "You can justify all sorts of reasons, and you can even say that you don't know why Ren Xianli will give them money on time every month."

Li Shang's tone paused, and Chen Faqiang had to look up: "What do you mean?"

Li Shang looked at him: "Chen Faqiang, do you know that from next month, that is, tomorrow, January 1, 2022, Ren Xianli will no longer subsidize and allocate funds for your son's studies and your wife's medical expenses?"

All of Chen Faqiang's pretense of indifference collapsed at this moment.

His lips couldn't stop shaking, he was worried about it when he saw the news.

He did such a beastly thing for the sake of his son and wife.

But that's it...

Chen Faqiang lowered his head and swayed slightly.

That's a knee-jerk rejection.

Ling Xiao raised his hand and tapped his fingers on the tabletop.

Chen Faqiang was startled by the sudden sound, and he looked over tremblingly.

Ling Xiao looked at him, his eyes were fixed, and his voice was cold: "You were convicted of intentional homicide because you hit and injured someone and got out of the car and sat on the side of the road for two hours without any treatment. However, if it is instigated to kill, it will not be a life sentence."

Chen Faqiang's forehead quickly broke out with a layer of fine sweat, and even his temples were trembling.

Ling Xiao continued: "You have to understand that your son will be repatriated to China immediately, and your wife will not have follow-up treatment, your son and your wife are not capable of working now, and you are here, you can't help them anything."

The prison has its own cold, tables, stools, iron fences, all of them.

Especially when no one speaks, it is a refreshing chill.

It's a place that can freeze hot people gradually.

After a while.

Ling Xiao heard a slight sound from Chen Faqiang's handcuffs, his eyebrows moved, and he spoke again: "You have been in prison for eight years, if you are instigated to kill, our lawyer Li will defend you, and you will have a chance to go out and see your wife and children."

There is a chance to take a look at my wife and children...

This is something that Chen Faqiang can't even think of.

He did that beast thing, and it was a nightmare every night.

He hit someone at the time, and when he got out of the car to check, the person was still breathing, and according to the agreement, he was going to let her die.

At that time, his hands were pinched on the woman's neck, but the woman suddenly opened her eyes and looked at him, he didn't have a hand, sat on the side of the road for two hours, and finally was found by pedestrians and called the police.

Back then, the big man over there didn't choose to give him a lump sum of money at one time, just to avoid him retracting his confession one day, but in this way, now that the big man has fallen, everything he did is useless, and his wife and children have to live the lowest life, and even basic survival is a problem.

Chen Faqiang closed his eyes, with a look of regret and chagrin, and raised his hand to hammer his head.

Li Shang originally wanted to stop it, but was stopped by Ling Xiao.

After a long time, Chen Faqiang's lips moved: "It was the secretary of the president of the Indo-Japanese Group who came to me and said that I would wait on that road, and they would lead a woman over and let me... Hit her ...... and kill her."

******

When Ling Xiao and Li Shang walked out of the prison gate, it was almost dusk.

Ling Xiao stood at the door, looking at the sunset, his eyes were empty, and he said lazily, "Tomorrow is New Year's Day."

Li Shang said "um", "Where are you going now?"

"Please, take me home."

"Okay!" Li Shang threw out the car keys and went to drive, "Tell me about you on the road later."

Li Shang drove the car over, waited for Ling Xiao to get in the car, and was about to listen to it.

Ling Xiao closed his eyes, clasped his hands around his chest like an uncle, and said lazily, "Wait to see the police report, I ask for secrecy here."

Li Shang squinted at Ling Xiao and said unhappily: "Then Shanshan will ask you later, you also say the same?" Aren't you afraid she'll be angry?"

Ling Xiao snorted lightly, and his tone was extremely confident: "She's very well-behaved."

"Good luck." Li Shang spoke from the experience of a person who came over, "Woman, being fierce can peel off your skin."

The next second, Ling Xiao's eyebrows frowned slightly, he opened his eyes and looked out the car window, and said lightly, "Find a pharmacy to buy some gauze."

"......" After a few seconds, Li Shang reacted, "I'll go!" You're shameless!"

When he was about to get home, Ling Xiao took out his mobile phone and called Zhu Shan.

As soon as it was connected, he smiled and said, "Obedient, come down and take your husband home."
