Chapter 57 Defense Lawyers
Sitting up from the blanket, the room gradually became brighter. At this moment, the old-fashioned clock hanging on the wall was still running. I raised my head and looked at the hands on the clock. It was seven o'clock in the morning.
The Taoist priest didn't seem to be awake yet, and the snoring from the back room was still so clear. I walked to the sink next to the bathroom and turned on the faucet. The cold tap water poured on my face. Although I was not used to it, it still made me feel better.
My brain became more alert after a long night of suffering.
Slowly, the light shines through the window into the house, and the whole house has returned to the brightness of the day. Walking to the window, I looked outside the window. It is cloudy today, neither as hot nor as sunny as on a sunny day.
It was as gloomy as a cloudy day. Through the window, I could still vaguely hear the sound of traffic rushing outside the alley.
Turning around, I didn't know when the old Taoist priest had woken up. He was standing at the door of the back room looking at me.
"You stay in this room all day today and don't go anywhere. I'll go outside and bring you food later."
I nodded slightly and saw the old Taoist priest opening the door and walking out of the alley. Watching the old Taoist priest gradually disappear at the entrance of the alley, I was extremely conflicted in my heart. Today, I am destined not to be able to stay here quietly.
Spend the whole day.
Not long after, the old Taoist priest came in carrying fried dough sticks and soy milk. Sitting on the chairs, we didn't say anything, we just quietly ate our breakfast.
"Will today's trial start at nine o'clock in the morning?"
The old Taoist priest's mouth was full of fried dough sticks at the moment, and he had no time to answer me at the moment, so he just nodded slightly.
The pointer on the wall was spinning rapidly, and time was passing by minute by second. The old Taoist priest was sitting on a chair, looking through his ridiculous books, while I was sitting opposite him, looking at the company.
News in the group. Perhaps because I have to observe the trial of Wu Jian today, the group is extremely active at the moment, and everyone is discussing the crimes Wu Jian committed. After browsing it for a while, I lost interest in these messages.
After exiting the group chat page, when the phone stayed on the desktop, my fingers passed through each application, and finally stopped on the icon with the style of a letter. Until now, I still can't understand Fan
Why did the lawyer send me those pictures? If I use these pictures as evidence, then he has become a new perverted murderer to replace Wu Jian. But why did he do this?
Just when I was about to enter the mailbox, the old Taoist priest stood up from his chair. After putting the book back in its place, he took out a gray coat from the back room and put it on, and then opened the door to the room.
I understood that he was preparing to leave for the court hearing. After giving me a few brief instructions, he closed the door. Through the window, I could see him walking towards the road outside the alley. Waiting for him to completely disappear.
At the entrance of the alley, I walked behind the door and was about to open it, only to find that the door was locked by the old Taoist priest. When I pulled the door, I could hear the clanging sound of the lock outside hitting the facade.
When I walked back to the window, what surprised me was that the window of the old Taoist priest's house was actually fixed and could not be opened unless external force was used to break it.
Sitting on the chair, the hands of the clock on the wall stopped at 8:10. The clicking sounds were like the sounds in the recording on that weird website, which seemed to be urging.
I arrived at the court hearing on time. But now, the old Taoist priest has blocked all my exits. I stood up and walked around the surrounding walls, but found that there were no other exits at all. Only the back room where the old Taoist priest slept.
There is an openable window on the wall, but the outside of the window is covered with steel bars and barbed wire.
I walked out of the back room, sat back on the chair, and watched the time passing by bit by bit. I knew that I couldn't wait any longer. I raised the chair and smashed the window hard. Bang, the window was smashed.
There were big holes and broken glass everywhere on the floor. Stepping on the chair, I crawled out along the big hole that was made.
But what I never expected was that an old man returning from morning exercise happened to pass by at this moment. So, I covered my face and walked out of the alley under the surprised look of the old man. Standing on the side of the road, I stopped a car
The taxi didn't stop. He opened the door and quickly got into the back seat of the taxi. The driver was an aunt who didn't look young. At the moment, she was listening to the news broadcast on the radio. The news being broadcast was today's news.
The trial of Wu Jian.
"Young man, you are so anxious that you are probably going to attend the trial. Alas, if it weren't for work, I would have gone today. It is said that Wu Jian's specific crimes will be announced at the scene today. Many people are rushing to
This is where it comes from.”
Hearing the driver's words, I forced a smile, and then responded softly. After saying this, the driver did not continue to speak. Slowly, more and more vehicles appeared on the road, and the cars
There were vague signs of a traffic jam ahead. I looked at the time on my phone and saw that it was already half past eight.
As if he could see my anxiety through the rearview mirror, the driver suddenly spoke:
"Young man, don't worry, no matter what I say today, you will be able to catch up with today's court hearing."
After saying that, the driver made a U-turn at a traffic light intersection in front of him, and the car quickly drove towards another road.
Not long after, the taxi stopped steadily not far from the entrance of the court. After getting out of the car, I picked up my phone and looked at the time. It was already 8:50. I lifted my legs.
I walked towards the entrance of the court.
Slowly, a tall building gradually appeared in front of my eyes. Looking towards the side of the building, I could clearly see several big characters: Xizhou Intermediate People's Court.
Walking towards the door of the court, there were several bailiffs in police uniforms standing on both sides of the door. At this moment, it seemed that because the court was about to start, no one had entered the interior of the court.
"Hello, if you want to attend the court hearing, please show your ID card."
As I walked forward, a bailiff standing at the door suddenly spoke. After hesitating for a moment, I took out my ID card and lawyer's card from my pocket, and then handed them to the bailiff in front of me. After registering,
After taking out his ID card, he was stunned looking at the lawyer's certificate in his hand.
"Hello sir, you do not need a lawyer's license to observe the trial."
He soon came to his senses, and then stretched out his hand to hand me the ID. After swallowing, I took a deep breath, and then spoke:
Chapter completed!
