"Uh, that's right. Did it go well?"
"No one will go smoothly the first time, but I think you will get used to it soon."
"Have you been doing this job for a long time?"
"No, it was only two years ago that I was finally able to stand on my own
Meet. It's still very immature. "
"Learned it at shorthand school?"
"Yes. I studied there for two years, and then worked in a stenography company for four years. After I resigned, I worked on my own for another two years."
Gong Su's voice is pleasant to the ear.
"If you say so, Miss Gong Su...
Excuse me, how old are you? "
"Ah, twenty-five."
"Oh, you look much younger than your actual age."
It's not a lie, she does look young. If he said he was nineteen or twenty years old, no one would doubt him. He is short, has a thin body, and has a thin face. Overall, he looks younger than his actual age. After being praised for her youth, Gong Su lowered her head and smiled. The fine lines appearing at the corners of her eyes finally made her look closer to her actual age.
"So now you are working alone? In other words, you have established your own business?"
"Yeah, but it's not enough."
The phone rang. Shaji picked up the receiver but immediately put it back down.
"Who's calling?"
"I called twice and the other party hung up. Maybe it was a wrong call." Sha Ji replied.
He probably hung up after hearing the maid's voice. I don’t know if it’s Chen Bing. The matter of finding a lawyer for Zhao Kuan has not been completed, and now is the time for the other party to inquire. Although he didn't say much on the phone, Chen Bing could recognize the voice and hung up the phone without saying a word after knowing it was the maid. This slick approach was really like his style. Pretending to be worried about his friend Zhao Kuan, he was actually looking for an opportunity to get in touch with him.
However, Yi Mei felt that the call might be from Yan Huaiqing.
I have begged him to hire a lawyer, but I don’t know if the call was from him to report the results. He will always help you get things done quickly if you ask him. Yan Huaiqing is such a man.
After Gong Su left, Yi Mei asked her husband: "From tomorrow on?"
Will that person come every day from the beginning of the day? "
"No, not every day. About twice a week.
Right. She has other jobs. "
Yi Mei went out and called Yan Huaiqing. Yan Huaiqing's voice mixed with laughter came from the receiver: "I made the call. The person who answered the phone seemed to be a maid, so I hung up."
"Is there something urgent?"
"It's what you asked me to do last time. I found a good lawyer. Seeing that you are also very anxious, I want to make a report first."
"Thank you. But there's no need to be in such a hurry."
"What should I say? Anyway, if there is no problem with you, let's go there to talk."
"I'm fine, what about you? It's only four o'clock."
"Me? I can do it anytime, I'm just a jobber. Well, do you want to go have a meal somewhere? It's a bit early, but I can't hold anything in my stomach."
"Yeah, okay."
"Let's go to Shuxiangju Sichuan Restaurant. Now I'll call to make a reservation. Can you call me again in five minutes?"
Five minutes later, Yi Mei called. Yan Huaiqing said that the hotel had reserved a table, but Yi Mei might not know the place, so he wanted her to wait in the lobby of a nearby hotel.
When Yi Mei arrived at the hotel, she saw Yan Huaiqing, who had arrived first, waiting for her.
"Oh, you're so early."
"My company is close, it occupies a good location, and you can get away at any time. You came by car, right? I thought you knew how to drive, so I sent the company car away."
"Actually, you don't have to go to the restaurant."
"It's good to go there once in a while. It's a small shop with a relaxed atmosphere. Okay, I'll take your car."
The two of them walked towards the car parked in front of the hotel. A group of foreigners had just arrived in a car. In such a lively atmosphere, Yi Mei seemed to be injected with vitality and became full of vitality, which was completely different from when she lived with Lu Xin in that boring and dreary home.
As soon as I walked into the entrance, a waitress about forty years old came forward.
"Welcome. Thank you for calling us before to make an appointment."
"Sorry, I'm a little early. We're just here to eat." Yan Huaiqing said.
The waitress kept her head bowed and observed Yi Mei.
The food was served, and the two chatted more and more while eating. "That young man named Zhao Kuan reportedly confessed everything to the police." Yan Huaiqing said.
"Yeah?"
"Look at you, your face has changed."
"What on earth did he say? He must have been talking nonsense." Yi Mei was holding the chopsticks, and at this time, the tips of the chopsticks trembled slightly involuntarily.
"Don't worry, I heard that you were not included in his confession. Zhao Kuan is a young man, but he is admirable."
"How do you know this?"
"The lawyer I hired told me, saying that he read the police records. This lawyer is also a young man, and I think he is very good. He is from my uncle's side, so he works hard."
However, Yi Mei feels that lawyers who are too aggressive can also cause trouble. As long as you can avoid being hated by Zhao Kuan and prevent Chen Bing, Fang Da and others from taking advantage of him, that will be enough.
"Then the lawyer reported that the procedure for sending it to the procuratorate was completed very quickly. Although it is still in the prosecutor's investigation stage, prosecution will be carried out soon. However, as I mentioned last time, Zhao Kuan overturned the police report The confession made over there said that he did not push the woman into the kitchen and apply violence, but that the woman rushed towards her and he blocked her with his hand. As a result, the woman lost her balance and fell. He also said that the cause of death was due to drinking. He took sleeping pills and insisted that it was suicide and had nothing to do with him."
Yi Mei thought of Li Zhi's face exposed from the quilt and the bottle of sleeping pills on her pillow, and felt that Zhao Kuan's words were true. However, Yan Huaiqing couldn't express this feeling of reality gained from witnessing the scene.
"The reason why the lawyer works so hard is not just because of my uncle's relationship."
While the waitress was bringing the dishes to the table, Yan Huaiqing, who was drinking wine, continued the conversation just now.
"The police brought him for prosecution for homicide, but the suspect retracted his confession and insisted that the victim committed suicide. If he is convicted of homicide or acquitted, this lawsuit is still worth fighting for the lawyer."
"What did the prosecutor say?"
"The prosecutor seems to support the police's judgment. It is not clear whether he will be convicted of homicide or injury causing death. In short, the prosecutor believes that the victim's death was caused by Zhao Kuan's aggressive behavior. The reason for this is because Although the medical examiner's certificate admitted that the deceased had taken sleeping pills, it also said that only a small amount was detected, which was far below the lethal dose."
"Really? Isn't that right?"
"Unfortunately, the lawyer is very active on this matter. He is consulting forensic experts everywhere to ask whether the identification is appropriate. He also said that the current situation is quite favorable. Yesterday he came to the company to talk to me, looking very proud."
