Because of a broken hand, Joshua Dale ’s life became very inconvenient. If he was the only one, it would be dealt with, but there was still a sister Rosh Dale who had not recovered. This is a bit stretched.

In order to prevent the tragedy of brothers and sisters starving to death in the old house, they have stayed in the hotel where Yan Suizhi and Gu Yan stayed for the past two days.

During bail, Joshua Dale will be subject to many restrictions, such as not being able to leave the urban area where he lives, and not meeting the victims and witnesses to prevent confessions.

Even the relatives of the victim, Mrs. Kitty Bell, such as the teenager who splashed water that day, could not meet without permission.

But the contact between him and his lawyer is unrestricted.

咣 咣 咣 ——

The door of Yan Suizhi's room rang.

Such a rude and noisy knock on the door, I heard it was Joshua Dall.

Yan Suizhi was sitting in the sofa chair by the window, relaxing the injured leg, supporting his chin, looking at the case data quietly.

Hearing the sound, he said without looking up: "Come in."

This state is almost the same as when he was in the dean's office.

Gu Yan, who was sitting opposite him, was replying to an email. Hearing this, he fingered and lifted his eyelids.

Yan Suizhi turned another page before he noticed Gu Yan's expression, "Why?"

After he finished speaking, he finally reacted. He laughed, picked up the remote control on the desktop and pressed the door button, adding an explanation: "I thought I was still in Decama. I forgot that the hotel room here is not voice-activated."

Gu Yan coldly withdrawn his gaze, and continued to return the mail in his hand.

Professor Yanda was fortunate in his heart, but fortunately his explanation was quite natural.

"What do you call me to do?" Joshua Dall began to complain as soon as he entered the door, grabbing his hair annoyedly: "Ask him again that night?"

He doesn't have such advanced gadgets as smart phones. Fortunately, there is internal communication in the hotel room, so Yan Suizhi's "review" kid only needs to move his finger.

"What do you say? Or what else can you ask?" Yan Suizhi put down the holographic page in his hand.

"Just like this, you've asked 800 times in the past two days." Joshua Dale was reluctant, even walking a bit heavier.

"Come on, don't be dying, it's useless." Yan Suizhi patted the third chair with her lips curled up, beckoning him to sit down.

Inquiring Joshua about the incident and his movements at that time is what Gu Yan has been doing for the past two days.

According to the regulations of the alliance lawyer industry, a third party must be present when the court lawyer meets with the client. The identity of the third party is not limited. It can be an assistant, an intern, or a solicitor. The original intention was to guard against some lawyers using unlawful means to win the case.

Of course, actually fart is useless.

Because Yan Sui's leg was injured, it was not easy to move, and Gu Yan didn't want to be blinded by his limp tortoise, so asking Joshua's location was simply settled in Yan Suizhi's room.

Gu Yan simply returned the three work emails neatly and stared at Joshua: "Even if I have asked 800 times, I still need you to assure me that everything you said is true."

Joshua snorted and raised his hands with his eyes rolled up: "Of course it's the truth, what am I lying to you? I didn't rob others of my stuff, I said it wasn't me, it wasn't me."

Yan Suizhi thought and added: "I think it is still necessary to remind you that, according to industry regulations, lawyers are responsible for confidentiality. We have the right and the obligation to keep your content confidential."

How confidential is it? For example, if the person is accused of intentionally killing a person, the police has been unable to find the murder weapon. Even if the client confesses to the lawyer how the weapon was handled, the lawyer cannot tell the police about it.

This gadget sounds very much not a thing, it is extremely bad in the eyes of ordinary people.

Some people have no obstacles in implementing this clearly stated responsibility, while others are always struggling and uneasy.

Yan Suizhi said before in joking with others, this is a devil's law, black, dark, contrary to the most simple morals, disgusting. But the reality is that only under this rule of law can the devil tell the truth.

Yan Suizhi fed Joshua Dall with a centering pill for the 800th time, and slowly said, "So--"

"So I hope I don't have any scruples, what I say, even if it involves some very **** content, it will be kept secret." Joshua finished for him in an endorsement-like tone without any ups and downs. , I can hear calluses answering my ears. "

Yan Suizhi and Gu Yan calm down one by one, and this impatient attitude is commonplace for him.

"So what did you do from the afternoon to the evening on the 21st?" Yan Suizhi asked, referring to the existing information in the case.

"I had a conflict with someone when I was working that day, I was injured cheekbones, I received an additional compensation of 100 West, and I could also take the work off the site and get a half-day vacation ..."

He was swollen and squeezing money, and his mood was delicate. It's hard to tell whether it's more dysphoria or more surprises.

Or this contradiction itself is very sad.

He touched his cheekbones and licked a **** scent, went home to take a short sleep, and rushed to the street with money, went to the jewelry wholesale shop in the alley to spend 68 West to buy a pair of pearl earrings.

Then he took the pair of cheap but pretty pearl earrings on the wall of Kitty Bell's house.

"Why spend 68 West to buy those earrings?" Gu Yan asked.

Although this question has been answered many times, Joshua will remain silent for a few seconds before answering each question.

"... because I dreamed of my grandmother when I slept in the afternoon." Joshua said.

"Why dream about your grandmother?"

"... Who knows."

Maybe the beaten cheekbones suddenly hurt more than every wound in the past, or the compensation of the 100 West suddenly makes him feel wronged and boring ...

Joshua in short sleep dreamed about her grandmother who had passed away for so many years.

He dreamed that he was standing in a small kitchen, stewing his porridge with vegetable leaves, the rain was pouring outside, and the water droplets on the eaves became curtains.

The grandmother stood under the roof of the kitchen window to hide from the rain and looked at him kindly.

He pushed open the window and said to his grandmother: "It's raining outside and the roof can't stop it. Why are you standing here and hurrying into the house?"

The grandmother touched the wet corner of the clothes, and then glanced into the room again, gently smiling and said, "No more, I just want to see you."

Joshua was a little anxious, "Come in, come in quickly, the rain will hit you."

The grandmother still smiled and didn't enter.

In the dream, he did not know why he was so anxious to let his grandmother enter the house, or why he was so sad.

He woke up in that kind of intense sadness, lay in the bed for a while with glaring red eyes, and then suddenly wanted to buy a pair of pearl earrings.

Because several years ago, when my grandmother had not died, she said that she always wanted a pair.

"Why turn over the wall of Kitty Bell's house?" It was still a question from Yan Suizhi and Gu Yan.

"Because she is sitting in an armchair and knitting a scarf with lights, she looks very much like her grandmother ..." Joshua said.

Sometimes he suddenly missed his grandmother, and he squatted against the wall, watching it silently for a while under the shadow of the night and the water vapor on the window.

He bought the pearl earrings on an impulse that day, and walked home to realize that his pair of earrings could not be given by his grandmother.

So he went to the wall of Kitty Bell's house by night, not only watching this time, but quietly jumping into the yard. Hang a small black velvet cloth with pearl earrings on the door.

Who knows whether to die or not, that night Kitty Bell's family happened to be robbed, but the velvet pocket with earrings was blown to the ground.

Without other conclusive evidence, the velvet pocket just became an important evidence. The alleys are cluttered and old, with no cameras available, but the police tracked down the store selling pearl earrings and brought up the store's monitoring. Joshua's process of buying earrings was clear during the monitoring.

Later, through the remaining mud on Joshua's soles, he was admitted to the Kitty Bell family ...

In short, the evidence points to Joshua one by one.

"I confirm again, when did you leave the courtyard?" Gu Yan said.

Joshua: "Not at half past seven."

The robbery took place between 7:50 and 8:10. It would be nice if this time difference could be proved.

This is also their best breakthrough, as long as it can prove that Joshua left the yard early.

Unfortunately, no camera was installed in the alley, and no one passed by at the time, and no one could give Joshua the proof of absence during that time.

"It would be nice if there was a camera." Yan Suizhi's fingers were slightly touched with a little bit of regret, "It's a pity ..."

Joshua looked desperate, "So you still have no choice if you ask 800 times?"
