Chapter 062 Assistant Confession
Ye Sangsang listened to the other party's words and was moved. "How much alcohol can Mr. Wang usually drink?"
"He doesn't drink much, and in social events like this, he often gets drunk and has to be sent back by the driver. His mom and I have had several arguments with him about this, hoping he would drink less, as drinking too much is harmful to his health."
When Wang Ziyang's father heard this, he spoke with a look of disappointment on his face.
Ye Sangsang looked at him and said, "I mean, how much alcohol can he drink?"
"Hmm..." He thought for a moment, "One time we had a couple of drinks. He could probably drink five cups of white wine from a small glass. If he drank one more cup, he would have passed out."
Ye Sangsang nodded to show that she understood, and looked at the two of them, "Okay, I will do my best to defend you. If you have anything you want to bring to Wang Ziyang, I can take it to the detention center. You can also say whatever you want."
"We don't have much, just some clothes and money for him..." Wang Ziyang's mother said, hesitated for two seconds, and asked worriedly, "Can I ask, how long will the sentence be?"
Wang Ziyang's father also looked over, and at that moment, his expression showed a lot more sadness.
Ye Sangsang pondered and said, "Generally speaking, if a person is drunk and driving dangerously, and negligently causes a person to suffer minor injuries as determined by the law, the sentence is probably three years."
The light in Ye Sangsang's eyes dimmed a lot when they looked at each other. Three years!
"You two don't need to worry. I have already talked to the victims of the car accident today, and they are willing to reconcile. As long as the amount of compensation is negotiated, there will be a chance to get a letter of forgiveness, and the prison sentence will be reduced to about one year."
Ye Sangsang looked at the two people with sad faces and said comfortingly.
The two looked at each other, sighed and said, "I'll leave the matter of the letter of forgiveness to you, Lawyer Qi. We believe in your ability. That girl is also pitiful. She met my son and suffered an unexpected disaster. Even if the money is a little more, it doesn't matter. It's not enough for us to make up for it."
[I feel like this family is kindhearted. I was in a car accident before, and the other party was clearly fully responsible and had no insurance, but they insisted on wasting my time and energy. In the end, I sued them and got compensation.]
[I just checked the time. The game copy was released in 2016. One million in 2016 is still worth a lot of money. It's very sincere.]
[Listening to the narration, I feel that this family has good character. How could they be so careless? I remind you again, don’t drive after drinking, and don’t drive after drinking! It harms others and yourself!]
This topic was discussed heatedly in the live broadcast room, and many people felt emotional about this seemingly ordinary dispute.
After listening to this, Ye Sangsang nodded to indicate that she would complete it well, and then said goodbye and left.
After the two of them left the villa and got into the car, Zhang Xiaoxiao, who had been silent until then, said, "Lawyer Qi, this case seems quite simple, why did you handle it yourself?"
This kind of case can be handled by these trainee lawyers.
Qi Qin is already a famous lawyer, and his actions are a bit of a waste of his talent.
"The other party is rich and paid a lot of lawyer fees. I personally came forward to express my sincerity. The other party accepted my sincerity. In the future, Wang Ziyang will be the network." She said, looking at Zhang Xiaoxiao, "The legal industry is a bit like sales. A lot of business needs to be developed by yourself. Since Wang Ziyang specifically asked for me, I will naturally strive for everything I can."
Zhang Xiaoxiao pondered for a few seconds, "I understand."
"And this case doesn't look simple. I always feel that there is something behind it." Ye Sangsang said casually as he drove the car and turned out of the community.
Zhang Xiaoxiao opened her mouth wide, obviously confused. This case seemed quite normal!
Thinking this way, she asked casually, "Qi Lu, what do you think is wrong? I don't notice anything at all."
After she finished speaking, she widened her eyes and added, "Where should we drink?"
"Part of it, and the rest I haven't figured out yet," she stepped on the brakes and stopped at the traffic light.
Looking at the red light ahead that kept moving backwards for several seconds, she frowned slightly.
She might need to know more about this case, such as the specific circumstances of the scene.
She thought for a moment and asked, "Do you have the phone number of Wang Ziyang's assistant? Ask him out so I can talk to him."
"Here, here it is. Let me look through the documents," Zhang Xiaoxiao, who was sitting in the passenger seat, opened his bag immediately and started looking through the documents.
After hearing the sound of flipping pages, she quickly found the phone.
After confirming the time and place with Ye Sangsang, she called Wang Ziyang's assistant.
Ye Sangsang listened to the other party making a phone call to make an appointment. After agreeing to meet at noon tomorrow when the other party was off work, Ye Sangsang drove back to the law firm.
She didn't have any other cases on hand for the time being, so this was her day off.
Ye Sangsang did not choose to jump through the timeline, but returned to the home of lawyer Qi Qin.
The other person's house is a large flat in the city, decorated in a cold and serious style. There is only one nanny in the house, who is only responsible for cleaning, and he cooks all the meals himself.
After changing into comfortable home clothes, Ye Sangsang walked to the dressing mirror in the cloakroom.
Looking at the rather handsome face in the mirror, then looking at the contacts in the phone, and the situation at home, I understood what Qi Qin had not said in the game copy.
She went to the study, opened the drawer, and turned on the other person's computer.
After reading it, she looked a little puzzled.
Maybe she was just too suspicious.
She stopped checking what she was doing, stood up and left Qi Qin's study.
Then I jumped across the timeline and arrived at noon of the next day.
Ye Sangsang arrived at the coffee shop where the other party had agreed to meet at the agreed time.
She and Zhang Xiaoxiao arrived earlier than the other and sat for a few minutes before the other walked in slowly from the door.
Apparently, the assistant didn't seem to want to see them.
"Sorry to have kept you waiting." A young man, about 27 or 28 years old, wearing a white shirt and suit pants, said apologetically.
Ye Sangsang shook her head at the other party and said, "No, we just arrived. Let's order a cup of coffee!" After saying that, she stretched out her hand, ready to signal the waiter to order more coffee.
"No, no, no... I don't want to drink. I'll be leaving after saying that." The assistant hurriedly stopped him.
He placed his hands restrainedly on his thighs, and perhaps out of nervousness, his palms kept rubbing against his suit pants.
Looking at Ye Sangsang who was holding the coffee and taking a sip leisurely, he thought for a moment and took the initiative to speak: "Lawyer Qi, I wonder what you want to talk to me about?"
"Don't be nervous. I'm not a policeman. You don't need to be nervous. I just want to know the specific details of that day." Ye Sangsang drank the coffee and frowned slightly. She didn't quite understand why Qi Qin liked this pure coffee so much, because in addition to the bitter taste, there was also a hint of sourness.
Upon hearing this, the assistant sighed slightly and said, "What I said is true. I'm sure you've read the confession from the police, and it's exactly what I said."
"Can I ask you to say it again?" Ye Sangsang raised his head and looked at the other party.
The assistant's face instantly showed a bit of impatience, but he suppressed his dissatisfaction and talked about all the details of that day.
As an assistant, he also drank some wine that day.
But as the one being bullied, Wang Ziyang drank even more and had drunk a lot by the time he left the hotel.
"I helped him to the back seat, thinking of calling a designated driver for him, but he didn't appreciate it at all. While I was calling for a designated driver, he got to the driver's seat and drove away..." When the assistant said this, he was speechless for a while, and a look of genuine disgust flashed across his face.
Ye Sangsang observed the other person's expression and asked again: "What do you think his mental state was like at that time? Did he show any actions or words?"
She did not ask why the other party did not call the police, because if that happened the leader would be caught on the spot and the assistant would certainly not be in a good situation afterwards. He was not a member of the leader's family, so there was no need for him to be so serious.
Letting the other party go is most likely because they think the leader is still sober and they think the leader may not be caught and can get home safely.
But I didn’t expect that the leader not only did not return home, but also sent himself to the detention center.
"Except for being a little dazed and talking incoherently, he was pretty normal. I thought there might be no traffic police on the road he was going home on so late at night, so I didn't do anything to stop him." He paused and said helplessly, "You know, if I called to report drunk driving and Mr. Wang sent me to jail, I would basically be banned in the local area and I wouldn't be able to find a job."
Ye Sangsang didn't ask, but the assistant told him all about his lucky feelings.
Zhang Xiaoxiao, who was sitting next to her, thought about it and didn't think it was wrong. If it were her, she would probably do the same.
Ye Sangsang placed her hands on the armrest and looked at the other person, "How did you get home after that?"
"I... I was worried for a long time and then I took a taxi home. I showed the police the taxi record." The assistant hesitated, as if recalling something, and answered.
Ye Sangsang nodded, staring at the assistant, thinking about something.
Under Ye Sangsang's sharp gaze, the assistant's eyes flickered, and after three seconds, he turned away as if nothing had happened.
Ye Sangsang stood up and said to the other party: "Thank you for your answer. Your lunch break is almost over. You should go back early. The road is quite congested now."
"Okay... okay, I'll go back, otherwise I'll be late this afternoon," his expression instantly relaxed, and he stood up from the chair as if he was pricked by needles. He lowered his head and listened to Ye Sangsang's words, then picked up the bag he was carrying and left in a hurry.
Ye Sangsang rested her hands on his uncontrollably trembling fingers and watched him leave with an unclear expression.
[It seems that this assistant is so guilty. ]
【There is something fishy going on.】
【Wang Ziyang couldn't have really been wrongly accused.】
It was so obvious that not only Ye Sangsang noticed it, but many viewers in the live broadcast room also noticed that something was wrong.
Ye Sangsang stood up and called Zhang Xiaoxiao, "Let's go, let's go back and take a closer look at the situation, and go to the victim's place."
"Still going?" Zhang Xiaoxiao scratched his head, confused.
Ye Sangsang looked at her and said firmly, "Go and do your work. Don't be afraid of trouble."
In the car, Ye Sangsang recalled what the other party had said, and there were still many doubts in his mind.
The assistant's obvious behavior gave her some answers, but it did not constitute the truth. It could even be said that the truth became even more confusing.
After meeting the victim, she planned to apply for another meeting, and then apply to identify the car that was involved in the accident.
Her instinct told her that order was important.
This time when she went to the hospital, she didn't bring the flower basket. Zhang Xiaoxiao followed her closely, just like a little follower.
The other party is full of energy, and from his eyes, you can tell that he admires Qi Qin very much.
After driving to the hospital parking lot, Ye Sangsang stopped, lit a cigarette and smoked for a few minutes.
This is Qi Qin's usual way of thinking. This is the second time Ye Sangsang has met a dungeon protagonist who occasionally likes to smoke since the last "Rainy Night Taxi" dungeon.
Although she didn't know why she could think like this, it didn't stop her from calming down and thinking about the situation again.
This dungeon gave her a very different feeling. It was not quite like the previous thrills and excitement, but it also gave her a sense of crisis. She felt that if she took a wrong step, she would have to start over again in this dungeon.
In her eyes, everyone has their own thoughts and gives her information for her to judge.
She had the illusion that she was gradually walking into a trap.
But this trap is a bit mysterious.
She wasn't upset, she was just curious about what these people were thinking and what was going on.
It feels like playing chess and thinking about every move.
After finishing the cigarette, Ye Sangsang picked up the chewing gum that Qi Qin had prepared and put it in his mouth to chew.
Dispose of chewing gum before arriving at the ward.
This time, the girl was the only one in the ward; her mother must have gone out for a while.
The girl looked at Ye Sangsang and sat up with difficulty. "Lawyer Qi is here again. Are you asking me what I have considered?"
Zhang Xiaoxiao was a very smart girl. She rocked the bed for the other person and put pillows in place for the other person so that they could talk conveniently. Then she stood behind Ye Sangsang.
"Sorry to bother you. I just wanted to ask you about the situation." Ye Sangsang said with a hint of apology.
The girl nodded. Her name was Lin Xiu. She was 22 years old and in the second semester of her junior year. She was as beautiful as her name and seemed to have a good temper.
After Ye Sangsang asked, she smiled and said, "If you have any questions, you can ask directly."
"Did you see who was driving the car when the accident happened?" Ye Sangsang asked.
Lin Xiu shook her head and said truthfully, "The school dormitory was about to close, and I was thinking about these things in my mind. I didn't see the car until it approached, and I didn't see who was driving the car."
"After being hit, did you faint on the spot?" Ye Sangsang asked again.
Lin Xiu nodded, "Yes, at that time I just felt a huge force coming at me, and I fell to the ground and immediately passed out. I didn't wake up until I was sent to the hospital and examined by the doctor."
"Why are you asking about these things, Lawyer Qi? It doesn't seem to be my business. Do you have any doubts about the car accident?"
Lin Xiu looked at Ye Sangsang with a bit of hostility and vigilance, because a lawyer like Qi Qin would not ask about irrelevant matters.
She suspected that the other party's questioning would ultimately lead to a result that would be disadvantageous to her.
Ye Sangsang looked at her calmly, "I was just asking casually. As a law student, you should know that as a lawyer, you should have a comprehensive understanding of the case."
"Then Qi Lu probably won't think about the bad guys," she said.
Ye Sangsang nodded gently and continued, "I won't think about bad people. I just want to know the real truth. At the same time, I will also think about the client and let the client get the best result."
Lin Xiu showed a brilliant smile, and then turned into a strong smile, "Then I will wait and see."
The other party said this sentence in a meaningful way, with some other meaning.
Ye Sangsang's eyes flickered, and after a while he said, "Okay, I will do my best. Regarding the compensation, I hope you can make a decision as soon as possible. If you make a decision, please inform me as soon as possible."
"Okay." Lin Xiu said.
Ye Sangsang stood up and met Lin Xiu's eyes.
There was a bit of trust in the other person's eyes, without the hostility and vigilance just now, as if what Ye Sangsang saw just now was an illusion.
She always felt that the other party had a lot to say to her, but could not say it due to the current situation.
Ye Sangsang tilted her head slightly and looked at Zhang Xiaoxiao and the other people in the ward.
Finally, she said, "Take good care of your injuries. This is only a temporary difficulty and everything will be fine in the future. If you want to find an internship in your senior year, you can try to apply to the law firm where I work. Just contact me."
"Thank you," she said.
Ye Sangsang left the hospital.
She kind of likes the feeling of unearthing secrets bit by bit, but she doesn't know what is hidden behind the secrets.
The next step was to apply for a meeting. She called the other party after work in the afternoon.
It is the case officer. The application process here is to tell the case officer first, and then submit the information for approval.
Almost every city is different. This is Ye Sangsang’s first time applying, and he also learned about the specific process.
Zhang Xiaoxiao is responsible for sorting out the case information and checking whether there are any other problems.
The case officers spoke very little, saying that everything should be done according to the rules, regulations and procedures.
After expressing his gratitude, Ye Sangsang started to prepare the documents and decided to apply again tomorrow.
Her intuition told her that it would take a while for her to notice some catnip.
For the next period of time, Ye Sangsang did not jump timelines, but instead began to understand Qi Qin.
The text information on the data is slightly different from the holographic simulation environment, and she became curious about this person.
It's not a romantic relationship. She wouldn't be interested in a 41-year-old man, actually in his 60s, who is also a homosexual.
Yes, this person is gay.
Although it is not stated in the information, we can get some idea from the simulated environment and the slightly ambiguous teasing of a colleague who said Wang Ziyang is good-looking.
Unless there are special circumstances, a male colleague will not ask another male colleague whether a person of the same sex is good-looking.
A 41-year-old, successful, good-looking and healthy elite.
Mobile phones and social software also indicate that the other person has never had a girlfriend or wife, which means he or she is probably gay.
This may not seem important, but Ye Sangsang feels that something that can be hidden in a game copy cannot be simple.
At first she thought that she was concerned about Qi Qin's privacy, but then she thought, maybe that's not the case?
This was verified in her conversations with other partners in the law firm.
Because they don't seem to shy away from teasing this. If they really wanted to hide it, there wouldn't be those conversations.
And Zhang Xiaoxiao seemed to know that she didn't feel nervous facing her male boss alone.
It’s not because we spent a long time together, because her internship was only half a month.
Unless she knows that this situation is "safe".
In reality, being alone in such a situation, someone as introverted and shy as her would definitely feel uncomfortable.
"So, what is the purpose of hiding..." She stood in front of the French window, murmured while looking at the scenery outside.
[What Sister Sang saw, I also saw for the first time, hehehe. ]
[I felt something was strange before. I wondered how Sister Sang would get along with Qi Qin's wife after she returned. I didn't expect that she wouldn't get along at all.]
[Homosexuality, it wasn’t that open in 2016! The design industry was okay, but there were very few people in the legal industry who were open about it.]
For many viewers, sexual orientation is no longer a big deal.
For a generation that has been surfing the Internet since birth, as the Internet has developed rapidly, these are no big deal.
However, they, like Ye Sangsang, felt that the game copy's obvious feeling was not right.
After saying this, Ye Sangsang stopped thinking about it. She skipped the timeline and submitted her application for a meeting.
After getting the result, he handed over all the clothes and money given by Wang Ziyang's parents to the detention center for processing, and then went into the detention center again.
After passing through doors one after another, Ye Sangsang sat in front of the meeting room again.
This time when Wang Ziyang walked in, he was obviously in worse condition than last time, and looked a bit more decadent.
Life in a detention center is not good, and is even worse than that in a prison. In many cases, prisoners are detained for a period of time and even have to wait for sentencing, and are taken out of the detention center and sent to prison.
Of course, she had only heard about it and had never experienced it herself.
But looking at Wang Ziyang's condition, she felt that it should be similar to what she heard.
"Are you okay?" she asked with concern.
The prince raised his head. The stubble on his face had darkened a little, and his eyes looked a little more numb. "It's... it's okay..."
He stretched out his hand and scratched his hair, revealing his smooth and delicate forehead.
From Ye Sangsang's perspective, the other person's long, thick eyelashes like crow feathers trembled like butterflies. He was thin and looked very fragile and pitiful.
"Don't be too depressed. I want to tell you today that there should be no problem with the victim's letter of understanding. I will do my best to make the sentence as reasonable as possible," Ye Sangsang said with a little more tenderness in his tone.
Hearing this, Prince Yang lowered his head and pursed his lips, "Are my parents okay? They are not in good health, and I am afraid of making them angry. I am unfilial. They forced me to get married many times before, but I fooled them. I thought I could always be with them. Now it seems that I was too confident."
"I really didn't want to get into a car accident. I've been feeling guilty and haven't slept well for several nights..."
"I barely fell asleep. My dream was filled with me waking up from the car, looking at the girl lying in front of the car. I almost fell to my knees while holding onto the car."
As he spoke, he rubbed his hair frantically, his handsome face full of pain.
Ye Sangsang looked at the other party and said softly, "Can I ask you a few more details?"
Wang Ziyang slowly raised his head and looked at Ye Sangsang with some confusion, wondering why the other party was still asking. Didn’t he answer it two days ago?
Even though he thought so, he still nodded and said, "Okay... Ask me, just treat it as a conversation."
"Did your assistant drink that day? How much?" Ye Sangsang asked.
Wang Ziyang nodded. "I did drink, but not much. They mainly forced me to drink."
"Before you got in the car, did the assistant arrange you in the front seat or the back seat? Think about it carefully," Ye Sangsang said in a serious tone, looking at him sharply.
Even though she had asked this question before.
Wang Ziyang was stunned for a moment, and after thinking carefully again, he said, "I am very confused about this part of my memory. I just felt that I was helped into the car."
"I felt it was in the back row, so I said it. Actually, I don't really trust my memory at that time."
He sighed, "After all, I drank so much, and I can't drink much... I really can't remember clearly..."
"You have no memory of driving at all?" Ye Sangsang added, "I think if I could drive, I would have some memory of it."
As a vice president of a company, Wang Ziyang's IQ couldn't be too bad. When he heard what Ye Sangsang said, his expression changed, "No... I have no memory of driving at all. It happened after I opened my eyes. I woke up from the steering wheel with my hands still loosely grasping it."
"Then, he looked up and saw the victim. He was so scared that he opened the car door and leaned against the car to make a phone call?" Ye Sangsang continued what the other party had said.
Wang Ziyang nodded affirmatively, his expression full of sadness, and he sighed, "If I hadn't seen that scene with my own eyes, I wouldn't have dared to imagine how bold I would be after drinking."
"Your assistant said that he helped you to the back seat, and when he was using his phone to look for a replacement driver, you climbed to the front seat, sat in the driver's seat and drove away." Ye Sangsang said this and looked closely at the other person's expression.
The prince widened his eyes and shook his head subconsciously, but then he held his forehead with his hand, his expression becoming hesitant.
He still wasn't sure if he had done any of these things before.
Ye Sangsang looked at him and finally spoke frankly, "Do you have any evidence that is more favorable to you? I think the case may be reversed."
This was her purpose. If Wang Ziyang really wasn't driving, then it was most likely his assistant.
If an assistant is driving, then an in-car appraisal must be requested.
Following Ye Sangsang's words, Wang Ziyang fell into deep thought.
Ye Sangsang's words were very straightforward. Evidence was the key. If there was any evidence in his favor, the case might be able to turn around.
And it must be favorable evidence. Just saying these things is not enough to turn the case around.
This is also a trust in lawyers.
After a while, Wang Ziyang seemed to have thought of something, and looked at Ye Sangsang with shining eyes, "I logged into the driving software at that time and was ready to place an order for driving, but then I forgot because I was asked to drink."
"This doesn't count as evidence," Ye Sangsang shook his head, directly indicating that this doesn't count as evidence, and it can only be regarded as a cunning excuse.
Even standing in the court, you cannot say it. When there is evidence, you should strive for lenient treatment and even suggest not to quibble. It is better to plead guilty and admit your guilt. Maybe when sentencing, the judge will consider your good attitude of confessing guilt and give you a lighter sentence.
Wang Ziyang was silent. He frowned and thought for a while before he said, "...I...I remember...I should have been in the back row! I was talking to someone at that time, and that person answered me! The voice...the voice seemed to be the assistant's voice..."
"Oh! It was because I talked to him that I felt safe and fell into a deep sleep!"
Ye Sangsang looked at him with puzzled eyes and asked, "Why didn't you tell me before?"
The prince raised his eyebrows with a worried look in his eyes. "I thought it might be my imagination. Now that you ask me, I am sure that this thing really happened."
"Okay, I'll check it again," Ye Sangsang was half-believing and half-doubting, frowning to show that he understood.
Wang Ziyang's eyes were brown, and he stared at Ye Sangsang under the white light, looking at her deeply and with full trust.
He extended his hand, then realized it was inappropriate, and retracted it. He looked at Ye Sangsang with a smile on his face, and said to her sincerely, "Thank you. No matter what the result is, I appreciate your seriousness, Lawyer Qi Qin. If there is a chance, we will definitely be best friends in the future."
"Okay... okay..." Ye Sangsang lowered his eyes and looked at the other person's slender hand, with some indescribable emotions in his tone.
【Was Wang Ziyang really wronged? 】
[There's something wrong with that assistant. I don't think he was the one who caused the car accident!]
【Wang Ziyang was sincere. For Yu Qiqin, such a client would make him feel much less stressed. He could concentrate on investigating the case and would not feel bad even if he failed.】
The meeting ended in such an atmosphere, and Ye Sangsang obtained the key clue that there was someone else in the car at that time.
After leaving the detention center, I asked the case officer about the evidence of the assistant taking a taxi home.
The police in charge of the case also provided screenshots of this part of the evidence.
After checking the time, Ye Sangsang went back and started driving with Zhang Xiaoxiao from the hotel to the scene of the incident.
After walking the second time, Zhang Xiaoxiao couldn't help but speak up: "Qi Lu, what are we doing?"
What she actually wanted to ask was, did Qi Lu think that this matter was not entrusted to their client?
It's obviously conclusive evidence, right?
Ye Sangsang said as he drove: "Wang Ziyang said that he talked to someone in the car at that time, and heard the other person's reply."
"This could be an illusion... or simply a lie..." Zhang Xiaoxiao hesitated and then asked tentatively.
Ye Sangsang looked at her and said, "Whether it is an illusion or not, we should go all out to determine the facts of this case."
"Okay," Zhang Xiaoxiao nodded, thinking that this statement made sense.
Their afternoon test was not very smooth, there was too much traffic and the timing was not accurate.
Ye Sangsang thought about it and moved it to night time.
Zhang Xiaoxiao was curious about the truth and followed along in the test.
The surveillance video shows the approximate speed of the car. Ye Sangsang drove at about this speed to the scene of the accident.
After three tests, Ye Sangsang got the data.
"It will take at most eleven minutes to get back to the hotel from the scene of the incident." Ye Sangsang said after looking at his watch.
An eleven-minute drive is actually not far. If there are few cars, you can drive six or seven kilometers without any problem, even if there are traffic lights.
Police surveillance showed that it took the other party ten minutes to get from the hotel to the scene of the incident.
Zhang Xiaoxiao took a look and looked at Ye Sangsang in confusion. "The taxi time provided by the assistant was eleven minutes after the incident. Logically speaking, the other party could not have been in the car at that time."
"I'll take you back to the hotel, and you can take a taxi from the hotel to the neighborhood where my assistant is on the way," Ye Sangsang said after thinking for a while.
Zhang Xiaoxiao nodded and started operating her phone.
The hotel was in a remote location, and Zhang Xiaoxiao called for a while before someone took her order. She looked up at Ye Sangsang and said, "We set out for three minutes, and the other party said it would take six minutes to get to the pick-up location."
"That is to say, if we go fast enough, we will have time to get back to the hotel and get on the bus." Ye Sangsang said directly after calculating.
Zhang Xiaoxiao scratched her head and guessed, "Could it be that the assistant was driving the car, got into an accident, helped the person in question to the main driver's seat, and then ran away?"
"This is too bold..."
[Wasn't it Wang Ziyang who did it? But it seems that the assistant is indeed a suspect. ]
[What deep hatred do the assistant and Wang Ziyang have...]
[Looking at Wang Ziyang's performance, he doesn't seem like someone who would do that. Now it seems possible that he didn't do it.]
Ye Sangsang lowered her eyes and smiled meaningfully, "Why don't we just ask the other party directly to see what the assistant's situation is like."
"Before that, I think we should apply for an in-car trace identification to determine the specific situation."
Who will admit it if it's just talk? We must provide a key piece of evidence.
Then kill with one strike.
Zhang Xiaoxiao was excited because of the truth of the case.
For a lawyer, it would be best if the client is truly innocent.
Just thinking of Lin Xiu in the hospital, she became worried, because if Wang Ziyang was not the cause of the car accident, then Wang Ziyang would not have to pay the money. If the assistant paid the money instead, the money would probably be much less.
She sighed and could only comfort herself that there was nothing she could do about it, that was the reality.
It's impossible for someone who did nothing to lose more than a million.
The vehicle involved in the accident was parked at the traffic police station. A tow truck was called and no one moved it.
After communicating with the police in charge of the case, Ye Sangsang applied for a trace identification in the car to confirm whether there were any fingerprints or other traces of a second person in the car at the time.
And what's more coincidental is that before the hotel business car accident, the car had only been maintained for two days and not many people had driven it.
It takes two days to get an answer after applying, so Ye Sangsang can only wait quietly.
During this time, she also visited the victim, Wang Ziyang's parents.
Then he investigated the private relationship between the assistant and Wang Ziyang. These inquiries were not difficult to answer.
Soon, Ye Sangsang found that the two of them were not in harmony with each other.
And from her correspondence with Wang Ziyang, she learned that Wang Ziyang had told someone that he wanted to fire his assistant because the assistant liked to talk bad about him behind his back.
This has been verified by some colleagues.
After the investigation, Ye Sangsang got the appraisal results.
There were fingerprints of Wang Ziyang and his assistant on the driver's seat, and Wang Ziyang's fingerprints on the back seat. As for other places, there was nothing else suspicious.
After Ye Sangsang got the news, he immediately found his assistant Xue Shan.
This time, it was Ye Sangsang who took the initiative to meet at the coffee shop downstairs in the company building. The other party was late as usual, and his pace was a little slower.
Ye Sangsang watched him sit down and ordered him a glass of iced lemonade. "Have a drink. It's too hot outside."
