Chapter 2069 2077 [Is there a murder? ]
Lawyer Xun sighed deeply: "I never thought that a lawyer like me would end up being blackmailed to this extent by my own wife."
Sato Miwako was startled: "Blackmail?"
Isn't this case a murder of passion with a green glow above the head?
Lawyer Xun nodded and said, "She asked me to give her 200 million. Although my salary is all based on my own strength, after all, in this profession, I often get to know some corporate secrets and business intelligence - even if I don't ask for it, those companies and consortiums will take the initiative to give me a large amount of consulting fees.
"Although we both feel that this is a legitimate and legal transaction, it is undeniable that from a legal perspective, these incomes are not so legal."
Miwako Sato: "...Just tell us that you need the Economic Police of Investigation Section 2 to assist with the investigation."
"It's not important anymore." Lawyer Xun raised his hand and made a pause gesture, interrupting her: He is a man who pursues perfection. He wants the most beautiful wife, the best job, and the most successful case - but now that his exquisite methods have been exposed, there is no need to defend these things.
Lawyer Xun: "As my wife who lives under the same roof with me, Hemei also knows the source of my income. Not long ago, she suddenly came to me and asked me to give her 200 million as alimony for the divorce, and she even laughed that she had been merciful and gave a cheap price.
"Two hundred million is really nothing to me, it's just my annual salary. But a lawyer like me was caught by someone, and that person is my wife, and she actually wants to use my money to support another man... I can't stand it when I think about them talking about me as a fool while they are sweet and happy in the future.
"So I agreed, but at the same time, I put forward a condition."
Jiang Xia looked at his watch and didn't give him any time to keep him in suspense: "Tell her to wait for you in the room next to yours at noon today and call your landline at the designated time. If she doesn't call, don't give her the 200 million yen."
Lawyer Xun: “…”
He snorted coldly and continued, "Such a simple request, but the brainless stupid woman agreed as soon as she heard it - she probably thought that as long as she made a phone call, she would have both money and a gigolo.
"But who knew that woman was so interested in those fancy things that she didn't use her cell phone to set the alarm, but used the music box alarm in the hotel... Haha, I'm a lawyer who has never lost a case, but I was defeated by her. It's really ironic."
…
The police took Lawyer Xun away in a police car. Mrs. Xun hesitated for a moment and helped him contact his relatives and friends, which could be considered as warmth from a relative.
Beside her, Sato Miwako looked at the police car going away and stretched helplessly: "Two cases in a row, both involving well-known wealthy people, it seems that the police station will be very busy tonight."
After a pause, she couldn't help but say, "What on earth are these people thinking? They all want you to provide an alibi. Your alibi is indeed authoritative, but it has to fool you first."
Jiang Xia sighed: "Maybe they think I'm easy to fool. I'm just an ordinary high school student who hasn't been exposed to the dark side of society. If I hadn't solved so many cases, I might have been fooled."
Curacao passed by quietly: "......?"
If Wu Zuo was exposed one day, she would remind them not to aim at Wu Zuo's face when snipers came to kill him. His face looked tender, but it was so thick that even bullets couldn't penetrate it.
Just as he was thinking, Jiang Xia suddenly turned around and looked at him: "Ms. Shirai."
Curacao: “!!”
Her body stiffened inconspicuously, and after a moment, her high heels firmly planted on the ground. She turned around and looked at me as if nothing had happened: "What's wrong?"
Jiang Xia smiled and said, "Have a good rest and have a sweet dream."
Curacao: “…”
She tried hard not to move, and waited for Jiang Xia to turn around and continue talking to the police. Then she shuddered and walked away quickly: It was clearly a nice word, but when it came out of Wu Zuo's mouth, it sounded like a threat or a curse.
While quickly moving away from the source of danger, Curacao prayed silently that she would not dream about Uzo tonight: today's cases had not stopped from morning to night, she was really tired, and now she just wanted to have a good dream.
…
The folk customs on this street seem particularly simple.
Jiang Xia was quite reluctant to leave. He handed out business cards to several residents who came to watch the fun. Then he waved goodbye, got into the police car, and took a ride back to the hotel.
The next day, Mrs. Xun got up with lifeless eyes. When she went to wash up, she heard a thud sound of something falling to the ground coming from the bedroom next door.
She was startled, turned a corner and walked to the door: "Ms. Shirai?"
There was no movement inside.
Mrs. Xun was stunned for a moment, then suddenly covered her lips in surprise, feeling that she understood something.
She took small steps back, took out her cell phone and dialed 110. After hesitating for a moment, she felt that she should go next door to find Jiang Xia first.
But before leaving, the bedroom door clicked open.
Curacao: “What’s going on?”
Mrs. Xun: “…”
...You are still alive.
The next moment, she noticed that Miss Shirai's eyes fell on her mobile phone screen and saw the prominent 110 on it.
Curacao: “…”
In the past, if someone dared to broadcast this account near her, that person would have been on her list of people to be killed. If it happened quickly, he would be in front of her in the morning and feeding the fish at the bottom of the sea at noon.
But now, Curacao was surprisingly calm and quickly understood Mrs. Xun's thinking.
Curacao: “…” The damn Uzo has corroded her brain.
Across from her, Mrs. Xun smiled awkwardly: "I just passed by and heard some noise in your house. I thought a criminal had broken in. Recently, everyone has been following Jiang Xia to solve the case. I'm worried that someone will retaliate, so I plan to call the police."
Curacao: "There is no criminal. I just lost my balance and fell to the ground."
As she spoke, she moved aside to open the door and let Mrs. Xun see inside the room.
Mrs. Xun knew that theoretically she should not look inside at all, to show her trust in the lawyer. But in reality, as soon as Curacao had moved aside, her eyes drifted over uncontrollably, subconsciously trying to find out if there was an unlucky criminal who had broken into the house and attacked Miss Shirai but had his head smashed by an ashtray or vase.
...Fortunately, it didn’t.
The bedroom was peaceful and quiet. Nothing had been touched in the vases, ashtrays or paintings on the wall, and there was no bloody figure on the ground.
The only abnormality is Miss Shirai in front of him.
Miss Shirai's dark circles seem to be even worse. She was once an urban beauty, but now she looks like Sadako in a suit and skirt, and she looks listless.
Mrs. Xun seemed to understand something: "Are you having a nightmare?"
Curacao: “…”
