A ten-year rival in love

There were still eight days before leaving the court, and Li Xu and Yang Yannan met frequently.Yang Yannan is still on bail pending trial. Although he has recovered some of his personal freedom, he usually doesn't come out and walk around, so basically Li Xu went to find him.

Lu Hui insisted on sending him there in person, and waited downstairs in Yang Yannan, as long as Li Xu stayed.

Although Li Xu had explained to him that Yang Yannan would never do him any harm, Lu Hui was still worried and even wanted to pick him up and down the stairs.

In private, Li Xu didn't really want Yang Yannan to know about his relationship with Lu Hui, so he tried to persuade Lu Hui to wait downstairs obediently.

Lu Hui was not happy in his heart, but on the surface he still clung to him, saying "I can't do anything about you"—this always made Li Xu feel that he was self-willed and unreasonable.

There will be two court trials in S City this month that attract the public's attention. The first is the trial of Yang Yannan, the second suspect in the serial disappearance and murder case, on the 28th, and the second trial is the No. 30 final judgment on the murder case.

Li Xu participated in both trials. He defended the defendant in the last trial and prosecuted the victim in the next trial.

After Shao Lang confessed to him, he entrusted him to be his prosecution lawyer through his mother, and the notice to appear in court was sent to Li Xu at No. 15. Yin Huan felt like fainting when he saw it.

Originally, as long as the conditions are sufficient for the prosecution, there is no need to hire a lawyer, but Shao Lang and Li Xu reached an agreement on the purpose. In order to deal with Wu Kai, Li Xu chose to appear in court.

The evidence was conclusive, and he had confidence in the trial, and everything went smoothly.

But at night he always had nightmares, dreaming of his dead father questioning him: "Li Xu, as a lawyer, you harbor selfishness, ask yourself, aren't you ashamed?"

He couldn't speak, so he could only answer over and over again: I'm sorry.

Every time Lu Hui woke him up at this time and asked him what dream he had.Li Xu was held in his arms and refused to say anything.

Lu Hui asked: "A Xu, do you have something to hide from me?"

Li Xu shook his head.He didn't want to deliberately hide it from Lu Hui, but he just felt that there were some things that Lu Hui didn't need to know.

Maybe he didn't want Lu Hui to see his dark heart.

If Lu Hui knew what was going on in his heart, and knew that he was planning every day to murder another person at the expense of his professional ethics, he might not be able to hug him so tenderly and coax him.

That's why Li Xu likes to be alone, he doesn't need to pretend, he doesn't have to worry about others knowing his true thoughts, and he doesn't have to worry about losing anyone.

Like Lu Hui.

"I can guarantee the best interests for you, but if you insist on using the recorded evidence, you will definitely be sentenced to a certain amount."

"I know this, I checked it, and the sentence is based on taking bribes. If it is serious, it will be sentenced to one or two years, and if it is lighter, it will be eight or nine months."

"Yes." Li Xu asked, "So you are mentally prepared?"

Yang Yannan forced a smile. "This is what I did wrong, and it's time to take responsibility."

"It's just..." Yang Yannan looked at the photo of Yang Qi'an on the wall, "The matter of Qi'an will be postponed again."

Li Xu also looked at Yang Qi'an's photo.The young face was filtered into black and white, the corners of the mouth were pursed seriously, and the expression was calm.According to Lu Hui, Brown was almost supported by this person at the beginning. He was really a capable person. It is a pity that he died young.

He looked at Yang Yannan again, completely unable to believe that this person would be the murderer of his son, as Wang Yishan and the others had guessed.

He not only investigated others, but also secretly investigated Yang Yannan.Even the police couldn't find out what was wrong with him, and in the end he had to be released on bail pending trial.

How can an ordinary doctor not reveal any clues?

"Recently, I'm always nostalgic."

Yang Yannan stood up and walked to the balcony with her hands behind her back. "Thinking about the past, thinking about the past, and occasionally thinking about the present, thinking about most of my life, living empty, what a failure."

Li Xu: "Don't think too much."

"Oh... how can I not think too much. Now that I am suspended at home, those people in the hospital don't know what to think or say about me. I don't know if I can go back in the future." Yang Yannan said, "I really like this profession , I have nothing to look forward to in the rest of my life, my son is gone, and now my job is also gone."

Li Xu thought to himself: Could this be seeking comfort from me?

"Everything can start over."

Yang Yannan shook her head. "That's what you young people say. I'm already old. It took me more than 20 years to climb up to the position of director. Even if I come back to the hospital and want me, I'm an old bone. stay in there?"

Li Xu's ability to comfort others was limited, so he stopped comforting at all, staring at the tea in the cup in front of him in a daze.

He stayed at Yang Yannan's house for a full two hours, while Lu Hui was so bored that he began to lie on the steering wheel and sing Shibamo.

This Eighteen Moments also changed the lyrics, replacing all the young ladies in it with little brothers. When No. 14 Mo was sung, Li Xu finally came down from the stairs.

"Where are we going now, brother?"

Li Xu squinted at him. "Go back to the law firm first, you go back, don't pick me up in the afternoon, I'm going to the hospital."

"Go to my sister's place?"

"No." Li Xu said, "Go to Shao Lang's place."

"I have to run around again... Why do you use that little assistant of yours? Didn't it mean that lawyers just sit in the office to approve documents and then grind their mouths?"

Li Xu nodded in agreement. "This is true under normal circumstances, and special circumstances are treated specially."

"Alas—" Lu Hui sighed three times to express his strong dissatisfaction, "When will this special situation end?"

Li Xu laughed: "What are you dissatisfied with?"

"I'm almost becoming an ascetic monk, what do you say I'm not satisfied with?"

"Okay." Li Xu urged him, "Drive, go back."

Standing on the balcony, Yang Yannan watched the car downstairs slowly drive out of the community, brought the teacup to her lips, and took a sip of tea.

"Relax, look here." A soft voice came from the top of your head, "Look at it, listen to me count dozens. After counting, you will think of the person you most want to see."

"Ten, nine, eight..."

Yin Huishan's vision gradually blurred, the few balls shaking back and forth made her dazzled, and her thoughts were gradually attracted by the gentle voice.

"Five, four, three..."

Yin Huishan closed her eyes.

A tall man stood in her mind.

"You saw him, who is he?"

"He is...my boyfriend..." Yin Huishan's tears flowed down, "No, he is my husband."

"What's his name, can you still remember?"

"No..." Yin Huishan frowned, "No... Akai! He is Akai!"

"Very well. Now, you raise your head and start looking up, can you see his face clearly?"

In her mind, her gaze gradually moved up, spreading across the man's thighs, abdomen, chest, and staying below the neck. "I can't see...it's pitch black, I can't see."

"You can see, I turned on the light for you, and he is also looking at you." The gentle voice seduced her, and gently coaxed: "His eyes met yours."

Yin Huishan looked as she said, and she met a pair of dark eyes.That gaze was like a fierce vulture, locking her tightly.

She screamed violently: "Ah——!"

The scream pulled her out of the hypnosis, she trembled with fright, her lips quivered, and a horrible gasp came out of her throat.

"Miss Yin!" Zhou Zhengdao was on guard and pressed his hand on her forehead. "Okay, okay, it doesn't matter, he can't see you anymore."

"Why..." Yin Huishan covered her chest and cried, "I know he is my husband, but I'm so scared, I'm so scared, I'm afraid of him! Why? Why! Why..."

"Calm down, Miss Yin. Look into my eyes." Zhou Zhengdao squatted down halfway, with his hands on his knees, and his eyes were level with Yin Huishan. "I will count to three, and you will no longer be afraid. You are safe within my range."

Yin Huishan looked at him.

"Three...two...one."

A wonderful thing happened, Yin Huishan's body gradually calmed down, her tears were not wiped away, she breathed evenly, and closed her eyes again.

"wake up."

"How long will this treatment take?"

Yin Huishan asked after regaining consciousness.

Zhou Zhengdao put away the props and said with a smile: "It depends on the situation. Your reaction is too aggressive. You can only break through slowly and don't rush."

"You are amazing." Yin Huishan admired him a little bit, "Just like a magician, no matter what you say, I just want to do it."

Zhou Zhengdao shook his head and smiled, "It's nothing, psychological suggestion is the basic homework of our profession. It's just a trick, but it's very practical."

Yin Huishan sighed sincerely. "It's terrible. If someone learns this and uses it to harm others, won't the other party have no way to resist?"

Zhou Zhengdao stopped and looked at her in surprise. "You're thinking far ahead."

She smiled a little embarrassedly.

"Ordinary hypnosis can only be used for people with weak minds. Our former teacher once joked that this is black magic, which is of the same nature as feudal superstition. Believe it or not."

He adjusted his glasses. "So the person who can be hypnotized, firstly, he believes that he can be hypnotized, and secondly, he has a loophole in his heart. Just like the kid I received some time ago said, he has ghosts in him."

Yin Huishan looked taught. "That little girl, no, sometimes I think what she said makes sense."

"Well, her parents both believe in cults." Zhou Zhengdao said, "By the way, she is the real delusional disorder. She feels that she is Solomon's reincarnation, who can see through the evils of the world and purify filthy mortals. The first time I talked with She met me, and she taught me the teachings for half an hour."

After thinking about it, he added: "And she also dislikes me for not being enlightened and not suitable for getting started."

Yin Huishan: "..."

On the eve of court.

It was already ten o'clock in the evening. It is said that by this time he should have fallen asleep and made sufficient mental preparations for the next day's battle.

But he couldn't sleep.

This is unprecedented.

He didn't know what he was anxious about and why he couldn't calm down.There was nothing around him now, not a big clingy canine clinging to him.

The insomnia was not caused by Lu Hui, but Lu Hui might be able to cure his insomnia.

Thinking of this, he stood up, put on his clothes, picked up his phone, hurriedly locked the door and went downstairs, stopped a taxi not far from the gate of the community, and sat down in the back seat.

"Go to brown edges."

The taxi driver in front turned out to be the little brother who helped him find Yin Huishan back then.The little brother giggled and said, "What a coincidence, we meet again, sister-in-law!"

Li Xu was not used to this title, he opened his mouth to correct him, but after thinking about it, he gave up.

Forget it.

……

Lu Hui's bar was really noisy after ten o'clock.A rock band was singing and playing, and many audience members shook and beat to the music, and some even screamed and cheered.

When Li Xu pushed through the crowd and sat in front of Lu Hui's exclusive No. [-] booth, Lu Hui still couldn't react.

"Why are you here? Don't you want to sleep well?"

"Mmm." Li Xu took the Jingmeier Special Mix in his hand, took a sip, it smelled spicy and choked his nose.

Lu Hui smiled and took the wine back, "This is strong, you can't drink it. You haven't said anything yet, why are you here?"

Li Xu said, "I want a sleeping pill."
