In the morning, on the first floor of Southern Cross Law Firm, Yan Suizhi and Gu Yan who came in one after the other met Ms. Fitz in front of the stairs. She was holding two stacked cartons in her hand, which was higher than hers. Overhead, crumbling.

She was pedaling her stiletto heels, carefully walking up the stairs, and suddenly stretched out her hands to take the box.

Fitz was light in his hand, but he hadn't seen it yet. He first exaggerated: "My God finally came to personal help, thank you! I guess who is such a good-looking hand ..."

As a result, as soon as he finished speaking, he heard someone turning his head behind him as a sneeze.

"Gu? Nguyen?" Miss Fitz turned around and saw that Yan Suizhi and Gu Yan were wearing a mask standing behind, while Yan Suizhi was sneezing a second time.

Yesterday night, Professor Yan Da who vowed that he was in good health, was beaten in the face today when he got up. It seemed that he had a cold symptom. The reason is naturally needless to say.

But Miss Fitz was surprised, which pot was not opened, which one said, "Why did you catch a cold?"

Yan Suizhi spoke with a slight nasal sound, which sounded lazy, "I don't know, maybe it was because the cat was bitten last night."

Miss Fitz: "Really? Then you have to get an injection."

Lawyer Gu paralyzed his face silently beside him.

Yan Sui's Yu Guang glanced at it, and then smiled at Fitz: "Fake, just kidding, but accidentally caught the cold."

Mint candy cool air punch, the effect is immediate.

Lawyer Gu couldn't listen to this nonsense, lifted the carton in his hand, and asked Fitz: "Whose? Help you take it upstairs."

"The special courier I received 10 minutes ago was sent to Dean," Fitz said. "It may be something that is used in some cases."

"Dean?" Yan Sui questioned.

During this period of time, he did not spend much time in the Southern Cross Building. Several lawyers had only one side, and their names and people could not be matched.

"The round-faced lawyer in Office No. 3." Fitz explained. "Mr. Philida's teacher."

Yan Suizhi nodded. "He is rarely in the office."

Fitz said that, Yan Suizhi remembered it. Felida complained occasionally that the Dean lawyer was different from other teachers.

Other lawyers will bring interns from time to time in court or on business trips, especially when the level of mid-to-late internship is sufficient to deal with some things, basically where to go and where to go. But Dean seldom took her out, and everything that was given to her could be done in the office.

This internship period has not been long until now. Yan Suizhi has gone on several business trips, and even even independently committed cases. Locke although they had never travelled far, but the nearby detention center court also ran at least once. She alone, so far, has only filed an application with the court because of missing documents when she is filing the files.

The contrast is too obvious, this young fresh graduate is very easy to think more, and even suffer from losses.

"Dean worked hard," Fitz said. "Gu knows him. He prefers controversial cases, hoping to give him more chips and gain popularity, so that it is relatively easier to obtain the qualification of a first-level lawyer. This is not , Just picked one this morning. "

"What case?"

"Do you know the Shaking Heads case?" Fitz said. "A lot of people were discussing it two months ago, but everyone's concerns in recent days have been on genetic modification and infection. It has temporarily overshadowed it, but it is still a Very hot case. "

Two months ago, Yan Suizhi was not awake yet. Naturally, he didn't know much about this case. But listening to Fitz's tone, this case seems to be very hot, and it's strange to haven't heard it. So he didn't ask much, and nodded at Fitz, pretending to be the same.

Fitz pointed to the position of an office above his head: "In fact, the lawyer he was looking for was Hobbs. The old guy had been hesitant to talk about it. Later, the first-level lawyer passed the public list, and he was even less It will be accepted. He went to the hospital this morning and said that he had symptoms of the initial infection. He just pushed the case and transferred it to Dean. "

"Hobbes was infected?" Gu Yan frowned.

Fitz said: "Yes, the call I received in the morning. He said he had a rash, but he hasn't confirmed what it is. Although I don't like him very much, I still hope he's yin and sexual."

...

After all, there is something left for each, and the three did not talk much.

Yan Suizhi and Gu Yan helped Fitz bring the carton upstairs. But the foot hadn't stood firm yet, and the senior affairs officer waved down Gu Yan downstairs: "Gu? Excuse me, I have a document that requires the lawyer's collective signature. You were not there yesterday."

The carton was sent by Yan Suizhi to Office No. 3.

Unsurprisingly, Lawyer Dean went out to work as soon as he took over the case and was not in the office. On his behalf was the intern Miss Filida. Surprisingly, Locke was also in his office.

"My teacher entered the hospital and told me to follow Lawyer Dean these days." Locke faced Yan Sui with a bitter face. "When Lawyer Dean went out this morning, he gave us a part of the case information-"

He pulled both hands, "This-so much! I have never been in contact with such thick materials. And honestly, I don't want to touch this case very much."

Locke was sad, and wanted to complain a few words, but when he saw the barrister coming out of the office next door, he had to swallow it back, "Uh ... I'll talk back, I'll go back to work first."

Yan Suizhi waved at him, stood next to the handrail of the stairs, looked down, waited for a while, and didn't see Gu Yan coming up, so he opened the door of the office.

He hung the coat and scarf on the hanger, and just about to sit down in the office chair, Gu Yan entered the door.

In general, Mr. Gu ’s insight is very sharp, he can always notice the details that others have not paid attention to, and he is very good at grasping the key.

So, Yan Suizhi just wanted to say something to him, he saw him inadvertently glance at the corner of the desk, and then he stopped.

Following his gaze, Yan Suizhi saw the pot of evergreen bamboo.

Before Gu Yan went on a business trip, the pot of evergreen bamboo was still alive, with green colors, upright roots, clusters of narrow leaves and fluffy green, full of temperament. But now, it's just one day and one night, it is slanting and falling, can't hold the branches and leaves, bent down and bowed his head, as if a poisonous hand is about to swallow.

Gu Yan: "..."

Yan Sui's heart is not good.

He coughed against the corners of his lips, glanced across his desk, grabbed a glass that he could only use, and planned to use the excuse to go to the "tea room" to escape.

Gu Yan propped up the desk with both hands, and carefully looked at Chang Qingzhu ’s miserable condition, and was finally spoiled to take back his eyes. He raised his eyelids and said: "There are a lot of dead potted plants on this side of the Southern Cross. return."

The implication-you are really a talent.

One of Yan Sui's hands was in his pocket, one hand was holding a glass, and he walked calmly out of the door, pretending not to hear.

"..."

As soon as I walked to the door, there was a scream outside.

Listening to the sound direction, it should be Office No. 3. Yan Suizhi no longer pretended to be innocent, and looked at Gu Yan, saying, "I'll go and see."

As a result, Gu Yan didn't say anything, just bypassed the desk, strode meteorically, reached out and pulled Yan Suizhi's wrist, and said in a deep voice, "I'm passing."

The screamer was Intern Felida.

But it was not just her. Although Locke, who was with her, didn't scream, she was as white as a paper.

On the desk in front of them, the carton that others expeditiously sent to Lawyer Dean was open, and the nails, blades, and several sheets of absorbent paper were faintly visible. On the paper are all sorts of abusive words that have been smeared by somebody, and they overlap one another one after another. The main thing is that the color of the strokes on the paper changed to brownish red, like dry blood stains.

"What's this ... threatening?" Filida's voice was tense. The girl saw this kind of thing for the first time, unprepared, and seemed to cry for a while.

"Not really." Yan Suizhi said.

The threat is always to make demands, these two cartons are not, more like pure venting of dissatisfaction and intimidation.

For this kind of thing, the rest of the law firm is not the first time.

Fitz, they quickly got together and looked at the contents of the box to make them clear. The Senior Affairs Officer was very familiar with this kind of thing. A few jokes made Filida and Locke amused, and then they quickly came up to pick up the carton.

Filida and Locke slowly calmed down and finally realized that it was nothing but the case that Dean had taken.

"What's the case of shaking his head?" Yan Suizhi murmured in his heart, finally curious.

He searched the smart phone with his eyes smooth. As soon as the keywords were lost, various case reports came out. Yan Suizhi directly picked the top report and glanced roughly, so that I knew what kind of case ...

Two months ago, an old man in a residential area on the Red Rock Star disappeared for no reason. Two days later, he was found in an underground warehouse. The old man was covered with signs of abuse. Surprisingly, the main traces were him. He made it himself, and when he was discovered, he was already in a foolish state, squatting in an iron cage while whining and shaking his head rhythmically.

So it was taken as a substitute name.

This case did not cause much discussion when it first happened. After all, the alliance is so big, there are so many planets, and there are countless things and information every day. This kind of case that happens in a certain corner is easily drowned in the ocean.

But soon, the police found that the victims were far more than an old man. They found a total of seven remote abandoned warehouses on different planets. There were nearly 300 old men in the same condition.

Almost all of these old people have identified the suspects. This is a good thing, but there is one thing ... the old people have problems with their spirits.

Before the formal hearing, the case has been disputed throughout the alliance. The appearance of the three hundred old people is really touching, and the attitude of the suspects is also disgusting, so it is self-evident where the tendency of the debate is. Large-scale disputes often end up looking for a bearing point, and this bearing point naturally falls on the attorney.

Yan Suizhi read a few reports, his expression calm.

However, there is a report at the end that mentions some old cases that have caused controversy. His eyes stayed in this interface for the longest time, so that Gu Yan, who was next to him, glanced at his uncovered holographic screen, and happened to see a familiar case name in those old cases.

It was a case that Yan Suizhi was under 30 years old, and Gu Yan was familiar with it, because he had spent a long period of time analyzing the case and then thoroughly analyzing it after the report was completed. Abandoned ...

When they saw the case, the two had already returned to the office, and the door snapped behind their backs with a click. Gu Yan's eyes moved from the holographic screen to Yan Sui's face. From his point of view, he could only see Yan Suizhi's dangling eyelashes, and could not see the emotion in the other party's eyes.

Yan Suizhi's face was a bit cold by the light of the holographic screen. He seemed to be fascinated. I don't know the case that made him bear the infamy and the famous after many years. What would he think, what would it be? mood.

After a while, Gu Yan saw his eyelashes move.

Yan Suizhi suddenly raised his eyes from the holographic screen and smiled when he hit Gu Yan's eyes. "What are you doing by peeking at my screen?"

It's reasonable to be deaf and dumb in a potted plant that feeds others.

"..." Lawyer Gu's lips moved, but he didn't answer.

Yan Suizhi tilted the corner of her mouth and glanced down at the report again. Then she folded her holographic screen with her fingers. She asked Gu Yan abruptly, "I suddenly remembered that you seemed to have said that you once thought you were out of line with me. "
