Chapter 45 Reversal of the Verdict: A Murder Case

Mu Mian felt that Nie Yan's expression was a little complicated. She couldn't understand it and she was a little irritable.

"Justice needs to be pursued and sought, because we can't achieve a perfect justice reality, we must pursue it. Justice is not a result, but a process." Mu Mian comforted her.

"This sentence was said by Alan Dershowitz. He defended Simpson, who murdered his wife, and also defended the pedophile Epstein. Are you using this notorious stick to comfort me?" Nie Yan couldn't help laughing. She thought Mu Mian was a very interesting person.

"Look, even such a bad person believes in justice, which shows that upholding justice is not a stupid thing." Mu Mian said.

"Hahaha, your logic of comforting people is really weird. But thank you, my good friend, I am comforted. Now I'm going to sleep, good night."

"Nie Yan, are we... friends now?"

Nie Yan did not answer Mu Mian. She leaned on the sofa and fell asleep.

Mu Mian was a little happy. She quickly wrote in her self-observation diary: I'm lucky today. I made a friend. She thought about it, crossed out the "one" and changed it to "two".

Lu Tian should also be considered her friend.

Mu Mian covered them all with blankets. She did not sleep. She looked at the night sky and counted the stars boredly.

In fact, she did not really believe in the existence of justice. Justice is just a concept created to maintain order and stability, just like the law is just a tool. But Nie Yan regarded it as extremely noble.

When she counted to the 130th, Mu Mian finally couldn't hold on any longer and fell asleep.

After only a few minutes of sleep, Mu Mian suddenly woke up. She looked at the sofa, and sure enough, Nie Yan was gone.

Mu Mian looked around, and when she pushed open the bathroom door, she saw a bathtub full of blood. Nie Yan's left hand artery was cut, and the blood dyed the entire bathtub red.

Mu Mian woke up Chen Xue and asked her to call an ambulance quickly, while holding Nie Yan's wrist to stop the bleeding quickly.

At the same time, she was thinking about a question. Obviously, Nie Yan had been comforted by her, so why did she commit suicide?

She should have given Nie Yan a hug just now... Sure enough, she was still not good at comforting others.

Because it was discovered in time, Nie Yan's life was not in danger and she only needed to bandage the wound.

"The patient's blood loss was not very large, so she just needs to replenish it in the near future," the doctor said, and then he couldn't help complaining, "The wound is not deep, and you can see that the wound is bandaged better than ours, so there is no need to send it here!"

After Nie Yan woke up, she apologized to everyone, "I'm sorry, I don't want to commit suicide. I don't know what happened. I couldn't control myself when I got emotional. I won't do this again in the future."

Nie Yan originally didn't want to commit suicide, but she received a message from her leader saying that she was fired for taking bribes. She couldn't think straight for a while, so she cut her wrists and committed suicide.

Mu Mian reminded her: "Prosecutor Nie, you must have depression. It is difficult to cure it on your own. You need to see a psychiatrist. Medication treatment is very effective."

Mu Mian handed her Shen Xinyin's business card.

"Okay, I'll see her when I'm discharged from the hospital." Nie Yan took the business card and stuffed it under the pillow.

Mu Mian looked at her perfunctory attitude and was a little angry, "I am seriously advising you. We are friends, and I hope to see you again in the future."

"I promise to see a psychiatrist! I won't lie to you! But," Nie Yan pointed to her wrist wrapped in gauze, "You can't let me go now, right? I have to heal my hand injury first!"

"You must go after you are discharged from the hospital!" Mu Mian emphasized again.

"Got it."

Nie Yan's parents heard the news and quickly came to the hospital. His parents are both high school teachers. Although they look serious, they are very kind to Nie Yan.

They did not question the reason why Nie Yan committed suicide. Her mother gave her a hug and encouraged her: "Nie Yan, we have seen the news. We are very proud to have a daughter like you."

Nie Yan hugged her parents and burst into tears.

"Mom, I don't want to work in the legal field anymore. I want to go home with you," Nie Yan hugged her parents tightly, "I want to be a teacher like you!"

"Okay. It's okay if you don't work. No matter what you want to do, your parents will support you. But your parents hope that you have really thought it through, and not give up your dream because of a temporary setback or to escape from difficulties."

Seeing that Nie Yan's parents came to take care of her, Mu Mian and Chen Xue left the hospital.

It was just dawn, and the fiery red sun was rising in the sky.

"Today is another beautiful day!" Chen Xue yawned. She admired the sun rising from the horizon and said while taking pictures, "It's so beautiful. Even for this beautiful sunrise, it's worth living well!"

"Chen Xue, the sunrise is not beautiful at all! It's dazzling." Mu Mian had dark circles under her eyes and said in a sullen tone.

She only slept for five minutes last night, and she also thought about a lot of meaningless questions, which made her tired and sleepy. She had a very bad night.

"Mian Mian, you look so sleepy, do you want to take a day off today?"

"Yes! I want to sleep a whole day."

Chen Xue drove Mu Mian home. When they were almost at the gate of the community, Mu Mian's phone rang. Mu Mian hung up and continued to make up for her sleep, and then Chen Xue's phone rang.

"Chen Xue, there's a murder, there are two dead!" It was Xiao Zhang who spoke, "Is Forensic Doctor Mu with you? You guys should come to the dock first, I've sent you the location."

Before Chen Xue could say anything, the phone on the other end hung up.

"Mu Mian, you..." Chen Xue turned her head to look at Mu Mian, and was about to ask her if she wanted to take a leave today, when she saw Mu Mian looking at her with sharp eyes.

"Chen Xue, drive to the dock quickly, hurry up, don't let them destroy my body."

"Weren't you very sleepy just now?" Chen Xue was shocked, Mu Mian's physical strength recovered too quickly.

"I can hold on. I once tried not to sleep for five days, and even in that case, my thinking speed was still not affected."

"Why didn't you sleep for five days?"

Mu Mian did not answer. She looked outside the car and sighed, "Chen Xue, the scenery here is so beautiful!"

"If you don't want to talk about it, forget it. There's only traffic outside the car window, where is the scenery? Mu Mian, your way of changing the subject is really poor."

Jiangzhou City is a coastal city with a long coastline and beautiful seaside scenery.

The murder took place on a small yacht. At the time of the crime, the yacht had already gone out to sea. There were western passengers on the yacht, who were holding a party on it.

During the party, two of them suddenly convulsed and foamed at the mouth, and soon there was no movement. The remaining two immediately drove the yacht back to the dock and called the police.

When Mu Mian and Chen Xue rushed to the yacht, Fang Rui and others were already checking the scene.

There were two dead bodies on the floor, one man and one woman.

"The deceased turned out to be Lin Qianjie?" Chen Xue saw the appearance of the deceased clearly. She kicked him twice with her feet and exclaimed, "Wasn't he still alive and kicking yesterday?"

Mu Mian said dissatisfiedly: "Chen Xue, don't step on the body."

"Sorry, my feet slipped."
