nostalgic

The door of the conference room at the end of the corridor on the third floor of Qiantang Hospital was ajar, and Tang Yun was looking at the scenery outside the window through the floor-to-ceiling windows.

"Miss Tang, can you think of another way?" Lin Ling's father showed a look of desolation that did not match his rough nature.

"Those extreme remarks made Lin Ling's current situation very pessimistic, and things became more and more uncontrollable, Uncle Lin." Tang Yun turned around and wiped out the remaining half of the cigarette butt with her fingertips in the ashtray.

"I never thought it would be like this, Miss Tang." Lin Zhongmin lowered his neck and spread his hands.

"You don't need to help her, but don't help her instead, that's what I think." Tang Yun shook the blue and white cigarette case in the corner of the desk, and scattered pieces of tobacco were scattered on the table.

"Then tell me, what should I do?" Lin Zhongmin subconsciously hunched his back and speculated, and the drooping corners of the three-layered eyelids twitched like spasms.

"Just keep silent, Uncle Lin." Tang Yun answered briefly after thinking for a few seconds.

"Okay, I understand." Lin Zhongmin nodded mechanically like a pumping machine.

"Uncle Lin, those remarks during the interview were really in your mind?" Tang Yun fiddled with the tobacco crumbs on her fingertips and asked a question tentatively.

"I thought about killing my ex-wife. That's right. I dislike Lin Ling for not doing a good job. It's true, but I haven't disliked my daughter to such an exaggerated level. The reason why I was so excited during the interview that day is because It’s because I really can’t accept this matter, and the second is because Assistant Lawyer Yan came to my house before the reporter arrived, and he instructed me to do that.” Lin Zhongmin confessed frankly to the only close friend in Lin Ling’s life.

"How does Assistant Lawyer Yan give you advice?" Tang Yun asked impatiently, taking advantage of the early clues in the conversation.

Lin Zhongmin clenched his hands into fists when he heard the sound, concentrating on memories.

"You know the reaction force, don't you?" The first sentence Yan's assistant came to the door late at night was not the usual "hello" in family visiting etiquette, but this weird and abrupt question.

"It's not that I haven't read the book, of course I know." Lin Zhongmin replied impatiently through the anti-theft door.

"Then we will use the reaction force to save your daughter. I am Zhou Qiyuan, the assistant of lawyer Yan Siheng." The quiet and gentle voice of the man opposite made Lin Zhongmin quickly fall back to a state of humility.

"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry, come in quickly." Lin Zhongmin squeaked open the rusty anti-theft door, and waited cautiously against the wall.

"Lawyer Zhou, I'll listen to what you said about how to save him." Seeing Zhou Qiyuan silently clearing his throat, Lin Zhongmin asked.

"No hurry, let me straighten things out for you first." Zhou Qiyuan replied unhurriedly.

"There are two key points in this matter. First, the case has attracted media attention. The outrageous act of killing the mother will inevitably attract condemnation, and public opinion may influence the verdict. This is extremely bad. Second, the physical evidence collected by the police is not enough to prove that Lin Ling deliberately killed his mother, and there are many possibilities, such as manslaughter, understand?" Zhou Qiyuan's two points made Lin Zhongmin feel a little light.

"Lin Ling is still in a coma. How she will explain to the police after she wakes up is crucial. It can be said that success or failure depends on this. The most critical point is left to me. What you need to do is what I do. Let me talk about the first point - the part of the media." Zhou Qiyuan successfully brought the topic back to the beginning.

"What do I need to do?" Lin Zhongmin pricked up his ears keenly.

"After dawn, the media will flock to interview Lin Ling's relatives and friends. You tell them that if they want to save Lin Ling, they must exaggerate their dissatisfaction with Lin Ling in front of the media. Objectifying women and criticizing the concept of marriage and love are the key points." explanation.

"But didn't that hurt my daughter?" Lin Zhongmin was quite dissatisfied with Zhou Qiyuan's remarks.

"I still don't understand? Only when you wantonly exaggerate your dissatisfaction with Lin Ling in front of the media, will it arouse the extreme disgust of the public towards your remarks. The extreme disgust will inevitably arouse some people's pity and sympathy for Lin Ling. This kind of pity Compassion and sympathy will attract more and more people to respond like sparks, and this response will become more and more intense as the situation develops, thereby influencing public opinion. Finally, we will use public opinion to guide the decision. This is what I call the reaction force. Remember, the more indignation you show in front of the camera, the farther your daughter Lin Ling will be taken from the abyss." Lin Zhongmin recounted the questions and answers between him and Zhou Qiyuan that night in detail.

"If this matter is indeed instructed by Lawyer Yan, then I can rest assured." Tang Yun secretly breathed a sigh of relief after hearing the ins and outs of the matter.

"Lawyer Yan is so good?" Lin Zhongmin had doubts in his chaotic eyes.

"Yan Siheng is the best lawyer in Lucheng. This person has been in the industry for more than 30 years and has never lost a lawsuit. At that time, my father begged him to cooperate with Qiantang Hospital, but he refused without mercy." Tang Yun always said to Yan Siheng deep impression.

"Then we continue to wait?" Lin Zhongmin raised his head and looked at Tang Yun in confusion.

"As far as the current situation is concerned, we just wait quietly for the reaction force to take effect." Tang Yun nodded in agreement with Lin Zhongmin's thoughts.

"Is there any problem with Zhou Qiyuan?" This idea suddenly appeared in Tang Yun's mind as she leaned on the door frame and watched Lin Zhongmin off.

"Dingling, ringing..." Nokia's default ringtone brought Tang Yun back to reality from her imagination.

"Sister Yunyun, Lin Ling is awake." Tang Jingyuan yelled through the microphone on the way to Lin Ling's ward.

"Really?" Tang Yun was apprehensive and happy when she heard the sound.

After Tang Yun got out of the elevator, she stood quietly at one end of the floor of Linling Ward. Not far away, two police officers guarded the door of the ward vigilantly.

The elevator door opened again, and Lin Zhongmin rushed to the Linling ward like an arrow leaving the string with a gust of wind. It seemed that it was the only time in his life that he ran with all his strength. At that moment, the cowhide boots under his feet seemed to have grown A steel roller that squirts sparks.

Three minutes later, Tang Jingyuan pushed the door out of the ward with her back straight, with her hands in her pockets and reported her injuries to the police at the door.

"Please let me go." The nurse pushed the nursing car past the policeman.

Tang Yun was startled by He Rujing's voice behind the mask.

"Don't watch people who have nothing to do with you." The 27-year-old young police officer cleared his throat and waved away.

Lin Zhongmin was stunned and looked around for a moment, his eyes finally fell back to the buttoned shirt on his chest and the swollen and hot soles under his trousers.
