The next day, Ye Lingyue went to report to her mentor as usual, and then ran to the court like a wind, and started a new day of running around.

Sitting in the stairwell on the third floor of the court, he began to recite the thick document in his hand.

What she is going to fight today is a very annoying lawsuit. Originally, this matter is the tutor's job, but after thinking about it, I know that if this matter is not difficult, it will never be handed over to her.

For the first trial, how to lay the foundation is the key. After all, it is a murder-related case. To be honest, when I first saw the photos of the scene, I was a little scared.

Before, there were disputes or domestic violence cases, but today I suddenly started to accept criminal cases, and I felt a little timid in my heart.

--Jingle Bell.

The phone rang, and Ye Lingyue was pointing to a line that was particularly awkward to read, sighed, and went to the phone.

"What?"

Because of irritability, and also because there are not many people calling at this time, Ye Lingyue subconsciously thought it was the younger brother who was in the same group as her, so she was extra impatient, and her tone seemed to be too lazy to talk to you.

"What's the matter? Didn't you agree that nothing happened? Now you don't even want to answer my phone?"

Unexpectedly, it was Tao Chengxian's voice that came from the receiver.

This voice just confessed to me the day before yesterday, and now it sounds a bit awkward.

Ye Lingyue, who was sitting on the steps, immediately straightened her back, and her whole body became stiff.

To be honest, in her heart, this person will always be just a senior.

Now it is not as cruel as before to squeeze myself, and it is just because I am not under his hands.

"Sorry, I thought it was my brother."

Ye Lingyue was extraordinarily polite. Originally speaking with him, she brought some tacit understanding when she was his subordinate at the beginning, but now she was completely unfamiliar and respectful.

It seems that talking to this person has become a matter of etiquette.

"You have a younger brother?"

The voice in the earpiece was obviously a bit unexpected.

"Uh...classmate, hehe."

Some things are not suitable to share with others.

"Oh, I just heard that you are going to participate in the trial today. After all, it is the first criminal case you have handled. I am worried that you are nervous, so let me cheer you up."

Tao Chengxian didn't feel any embarrassment, it was just out of concern, and at the same time, there were other, hidden thoughts.

Even if this woman with strong ability and execution ability can't be his backing, at least she can still be his subordinate.

A lawyer who has been in court several times during his internship, and a lawyer with excellent grades, if he can come to his firm, it will be beneficial and harmless.

In his mind, the calculator has always been crackling.

"Oh, you're really well informed. Well, it's my first trial today, but I'm not nervous at all, and I'm well prepared."

Ye Lingyue smiled very seriously, but of course it was dry.

It's definitely a lie that she's not nervous, and now her fingertips are icy cold.

How is it possible not to be nervous at all?

If something goes wrong with this case, to put it lightly, the mentor will be disappointed and unhappy, and if it is more serious, it may ruin his brand.

Everyone envied her that she had the opportunity to enter the court practice early, but they didn't know that while this job was beneficial, it was also very risky.

Most of the time, the mentor would hand over particularly difficult cases to her, so that if she failed, the only thing that would be corrupted would be the mentor's failure to discipline her well, not his own incompetence.

Of course, the reason why she accepted it was that she wanted to come to the court because she wanted to gain connections.

Her previous experience as a lawyer has accurately told her the so-called shortcut. Although when she first entered the society, she felt that it was a very shameless thing to play with others' hypocrisy, but now she also thinks that it is a good way.

She won't use these relationships to do bad things, and it's better to have someone to help her than to force her way in alone.

"Don't talk big, when I went to court for the first time, I almost peed my pants!"

Tao Chengxian smiled very happily on the other end of the phone, as if Ye Lingyue had amused her, but on the other end of the phone, she was worried.

"Don't be too nervous, it's nothing, if I remember correctly, today should be your birthday, right? Have dinner together after the trial?"

Hearing that Ye Lingyue didn't answer for a long time, she just kept sighing, Tao Chengxian also let out a sigh of relief, and went on with some helplessness, trying to soothe her spirit.

"It's fine to eat, thank you for your blessing, but how do you know my birthday?"

Hearing what he said, Ye Lingyue suddenly remembered, took the phone away from her ear, and took a closer look. Sure enough, today is Ye Lingyue's birthday, and she has been so busy recently that she doesn't even remember it.

"It's written on your sister's desk calendar."

Looking at the desk calendar on the corner of his desk, Tao Chengxian's tone finally revealed a trace of depression.

In fact, he also misses the days when Ye Youming was still there. If he hadn't asked Ye Youming to take up that valuable case at that time, wouldn't he suddenly lose a lawyer who is capable and easy to deal with now?
After Ye Youming's death, the firm's performance has been getting worse and worse, and its reputation in the industry has been declining repeatedly. The reason is that there is no such famous lawyer, and no one else is willing to work hard.

Those with a little bit of ability all went to find their own way out, and they didn't plan to stay in his small temple at all.

This is also the reason why Tao Chengxian tried his best to win over Ye Lingyue.

"Oh, desk calendar."

Only then did Ye Lingyue vaguely recall that she was so busy every day that she didn't have time to tidy up the desk, so most of the things would be recorded in detail on the desk calendar or schedule book, and whenever she had a little free time, she would check it out every day Is there anything I forgot.

Thinking about it now, it is possible that I wrote my sister's birthday on it when I was tidying up one day.

He said that he returned all his belongings, but now, according to Tao Chengxian's words, there should still be things left behind.

Even though it was such a thing, Ye Lingyue had no intention of taking it back.

It's just a desk calendar, and this year will soon pass, so what's the point of having it.

"Okay, work hard, you will definitely be lucky today, after all, you are the birthday star, you will definitely win beautifully."

Anyone can say polite words, but I have to admit that Tao Chengxian still has some speaking skills.

At least this sentence sounds very comfortable now.

"Thank you for your encouragement, I will continue to recite the manuscript, goodbye."

After hanging up the phone, Ye Lingyue took a deep breath and continued to bury her head in the manuscript.

What Ye Lingyue didn't know was that at the second she hung up the phone, Tao Chengxian frowned slightly, because at this moment, he was fighting back the stomachache and talking to her.

Just because I haven't been feeling very well recently, I didn't insist on inviting Ye Lingyue to dinner.

Soon it was time for the trial of the first instance. Ye Lingyue glanced at the time, quickly put on the high-heeled shoes she put aside, put away the newspapers under her feet and buttocks, rolled them casually, and stuffed them into the trash can. Go in the direction of the court.

Today is a rare criminal public trial. Because the people involved in the case are public figures, there will definitely be disputes among those present. Ye Lingyue has already thought of these in advance.

After the clerk finished the same opening remarks, Ye Lingyue stood up, nodded to the family members of the victims in the hearing seat, and began her statement.

She is the defense lawyer for the prosecution. In fact, the most difficult thing about this kind of case is that you will often meet some weird lawyers who are willing to die for money.

Sure enough, the first trial ended, and before the judge said that the court would be adjourned, the turmoil in the hearing booth had already begun.

Some people began to curse on twitter, saying that Ye Lingyue was an incompetent lawyer who couldn't even control such an obvious murderer.

But she is only temporarily at a disadvantage now, and once the key evidence appears, she can turn things around in an instant.

The problem now is that the key evidence has not been obtained at all.

If she went to find someone from the criminal investigation team by herself, she would probably only be reprimanded by them.

——Irrelevant personnel cannot view relevant case files.

But if she doesn't look for it, then she can only wait for defeat.

This is the reason why I am so nervous today.

Dejectedly, she came out of the court, holding the case in both hands and walking outside, suddenly something caught her clothes behind her, Ye Lingyue stopped, turned her head, and saw a small boy sucking -Yun pointed his fingers and looked at her with bright eyes.

"Sister, you are so pretty."

Xiao Zhengtai grinned and bared her teeth at Ye Lingyue, looking innocent.

"Yo, hello, who are you?"

Because of the guilt towards her younger sister since she was a child, and because she also likes children, Ye Lingyue has never been able to resist this kind of baby boy. She just squatted down and imitated his baby voice, shaking her head. talk to him.

I remember someone said that when an adult is teasing a child, if others do not see the child, then what they see is a neuropathy, or the kind of neuropathy that will be coquettish and cute.

"I'm Zheng & ×%..."

The little milk boy didn't seem to be very clear about what he said, but he was just muttering casually, still holding on to the corner of Ye Lingyue's clothes.

"Hey, this candy is for you to eat."

Ye Lingyue subconsciously touched her pocket, and happened to touch the candy she had prepared when she was sitting in the hearing room, and now it was also in her pocket, and she passed it directly to the child.

——"Zheng Zihang! How can you eat other people's food casually!"

Just as the little boy was about to take it, he was frightened by the ferocious voice of a woman rushing over from the side, his hands trembling in fright, he looked at Candy longingly, and then pitifully withdrew his hand.

"Hehe, it's okay, take it."

Seeing that the child wanted so much, Ye Lingyue of course continued to smile and give it away.
