537 Premeditated
The scene was left to the patrol officers who arrived later, and the others either returned to the police station or went to the law firm to investigate Jenny's situation.
Ethan and Olinski got into their cars and followed the ambulance to Chicago Hospital.
Upon examination, Rusek was found to be fine.
Perhaps because of the distance, the bulletproof vest slowed down the impact again, and the sternum was not broken.
When he heard the news, Rusek's kid flashed a trace of regret.
Maybe it's because the expected holiday is in vain, so he looks a little depressed.
Angry that Orlinsky couldn't help but slap him on the head, it was a blessing that he was not sick or painful, and he was still thinking about those who didn't.
There are no major injuries, and there is no escape from minor injuries.
On his chest, there were two more bruises, and the pain would definitely be unavoidable for a few days.
In order to prevent accidents, the doctor also put on an elastic chest strap on him after taking the medicine, and people who don't know think that he was seriously injured.
"Let's go!" Olinsky picked up Rusek's coat and helped him put it on.
This is the person who brought him into the intelligence group by himself, and Olinsky seems to don't care on the surface, but in fact he is still very distressed.
Rusek has definitely not been able to go out of the field these days, but there is no big problem with normal operations.
When he grinned and put on his clothes, the three of them walked downstairs together.
After a long wait, Sims' surgery was finally done.
They can't ask questions yet, and after being transferred to the ward, they can only wait outside.
Ethan played with his phone impatiently, knowing that he had broken Sims' arm directly, so that the operation would be simpler, just cut it, and there was no need to waste time here.
"Detective."
I don't know how long it took, but a little nurse hurriedly walked over:
"The patient has awakened, you can ask questions."
"Okay, thanks."
Ethan hurriedly stood up and beckoned Olinsky into the ward.
Rusek sat drowsy in his chair and simply let him rest here.
Walking into the room, Sims's hands and knees were wrapped like a dumpling, and the whole person was dejected, and there was no arrogance.
"Hey."
Ethan pulled a chair over and sat down next to the bed.
Seeing that he didn't want to deal with him, Ethan patted him lightly on the knee, "I'm greeting you, Mr. Sims, you're rude." ”
"Shet, stop."
Sims' eyes widened with a tingling pain, and he roared angrily, quickly looking at the little nurse next to him.
"Just don't push too hard."
The little nurse ignored him, said a word to Ethan, and turned to walk out of the ward.
"Thank you." Olinsky smiled at her and closed the door.
"What do you want to do?" Sims saw the other party close the blinds, gritted his teeth and said, "I'm looking for a lawyer." ”
"I haven't seen any kind of person, just because you two detectives want to deal with me."
"That's fine." Ethan simply handed him the notebook: "Write down the lawyer's name and phone number, and I'll help you get in touch." ”
I didn't expect the other party to be so easy to talk to.
Surprised, Sims quickly wrote the information down to his notebook.
"Look at this idiot, he's got a bad brain."
Ethan showed his name and number to Olinsky, and the two laughed together.
"What do you mean by that?" Sims said excitedly:
"I have the power to call a lawyer."
"Jenny?" Ethan shook the notebook in his hand: "Are you sure?" ”
"If it weren't for her, we wouldn't have been able to lock on to you so quickly, and we still want to find her to be your lawyer, do you feel that you don't die fast enough?"
"Impossible." Sims was shocked and said, "You're lying. ”
He didn't even bother with the pain, struggling to sit up.
"You know I'm not lying." Ethan let go of the hand that was pinching his knee: "You know, I just don't want to admit it." ”
"Now, you're not a cop killer."
"I think of you as a man, it's a conversation between men and men."
"Jenny said she was coerced by you, using her family as a threat, forcing her to join you and play a threesome with Johnston."
"She's very cooperative with our work, otherwise we would have found you so quickly?"
"Sober up, don't let a woman play with you."
After a series of words, Sims's face turned completely pale, and his eyes fell into confusion.
"She said she loved me." Sims' voice trembled: "She said she wanted to live with me in the future." ”
Ethan couldn't help but hold his forehead, how did such a fool become a gang boss.
"Bichi."
Sims cursed bitterly and told the story.
He and Jenny did know each other in Johnston's appeal case, but there was no entanglement, stalking, or coercion.
On the contrary, Jenny took the initiative to seduce him, as a simple-minded and reckless man, Jenny's identity as a lawyer is like a white swan.
Coupled with a strong sense of contrast between the surface and the private, he completely fell.
At Jenny's request, he and Johnston decisively agreed to remove obstacles to each other's careers.
Unfortunately, Johnston was in a car accident on his way to destroy the body.
When Jenny received the news, she told Sims to silence her.
Sims, who originally wanted to possess Jenny alone, immediately agreed, and the following things happened.
"What evidence do you have?"
Ethan's fast-recording hand paused and asked the most important question:
"She's a lawyer, and without hard evidence, we can only let you die alone in this matter."
"Text messages, letters, or whatever?"
"Nope." Sims shook his head slowly: "It's all said when you communicate face-to-face." ”
"Face-to-face?"
Ethan's eyes narrowed: "Do you mean you said it when you made the tape?" ”
"No, you found that too?"
Sims said silently: "I thought Johnston would have been destroyed a long time ago, and she never talked about these things when she was filming the video. ”
In retrospect, he clenched his fists, not knowing that Jenny was acting as a lawyer.
Again, it was premeditated.
Ethan sighed and closed the notebook.
Sims's claims alone don't do much.
The lack of evidence is a big problem, and there is no way to convict Jenny on that alone.
Everything that should be known was already understood, and it was useless to stay any longer, so he woke up Rusek and the three returned to the police station.
Ethan told them what they had learned, then looked at Antonio.
"I contacted the state attorney's office, based on the clues they provided."
Antonio sat down on the table and patted the case file beside him: "Dr. Elliot is the reason why Jenny lost eight of the ten previous cases. ”
"Her most recent case is next week, and it's Dr. Elliott again."
"We talked to people from the law firm." Erin pointed at Sumner and said, "Judging by Jenny's recent win rate, she is in a crisis. ”
"If she continues to lose, she will soon be voted to remove her as a partner."
"Economic income, industry status, will be hit hard."
"But we don't have direct evidence." Hank clapped his fist and bit his cheek.
That's the most important thing, knowing is useless, you can't prove anything.
This kind of thing, she can easily escape.
"Let's go."
Hank shook his head: "Who's going with me to talk to this beautiful snake." ”
"I'll do it."
Ethan stood up and walked with Hank to the interrogation room.
