Lawyer

In the director's office, Wan Kefa poured a cup of tea for Jin Cunhai: "Lao Jin, how are things going with the Fang family?"

"In the morning, Lao Fang told me that yesterday they met an old lawyer with gray hair, who was very imposing and said to be quite famous.

Later, when I called and inquired, I found out that although the lawyer was older, he was actually a new lawyer. He had only had his lawyer's license for less than two years. He had been working as a legal clerk in a company and had passed the judicial examination long ago, but he had been I haven't applied for a lawyer's license.And there are no cases that can be taken action.I became a lawyer just because I had nothing to do and wanted to make some extra money. "Jin Cunhai took a sip of tea and said.

"Does such a person dare to handle a criminal case? Don't be afraid that the case will not be completed, just go in first!" Wan Kefa said in surprise.

"You are overthinking. I guess that old lawyer is just a facade. The one who actually handles the case is not him, but the previous lawyer." Jin Cunhai said with a smile: "In your legal profession, there are too many ghosts and monsters, and there are too many tricks. Be careful and you will be deceived.”

"It sounds like all other professions except the legal profession are honest and trustworthy. This is Jianghu. Although there is no shortage of deceitful people in Jianghu, there are also those who work seriously and convince others with their professionalism." Wan Kefa retorted. .

"Yeah, I can't tell you anything, but what you said is true. The woods are big and there are all kinds of birds." Jin Cunhai said with a smile.

More than half an hour later, Fang Yi walked into the director's office.

"Xiao Fang, how are you? Have you signed it?" Wan Kefa raised his head and looked at Fang Yi who entered the door.

"Sui Xia is assisting Mr. and Mrs. Fang to sign the entrustment. Those who sign first will have a meeting and review of the case. The lawyer's fee is [-] yuan. We will discuss the entrustment later after reading the case file. Mr. and Mrs. Fang don't know much about the case." Yi replied.

"Okay, it's time for me to go. I've read the consulting agreement that was given to me before, so that's it. I've already signed the agreement." As he spoke, Jin Cunhai took out the employment contract that Fang Yi had given him before. The consultant's agreement was handed to Fang Yi.

"Okay, after it's stamped by the office, I'll have someone send it to you." Fang Yi took the agreement and was very happy.

……

In the detention center, Fang Yi and Sui Xia met the defendant Fang Xinyue. She looked innocent, but her face was a little pale, her cheeks were thin, and her shoulder-length hair was tied back casually, making her look a bit messy.She made people feel very embarrassed.

Fang Xinyue recounted the situation on the night of the incident.

"Fang Xinyue, according to you, the victim Niu Jiayan was killed by her mother Deng Shiyun, not you?" Fang Yi asked.

"Yes, I went to Deng Shiyun at that time and wanted him to leave my boyfriend Cong Mingchang, but she refused, and we quarreled. Later she stabbed me with a knife, and ended up stabbing her daughter Niu Jiayan." Fang Xinyue replied.

"What did you do after Deng Shiyun stabbed Niu Jiayan?" Fang Yi asked.

"I was very scared at the time. While she was trying to save my daughter, I opened the door and ran away," Fang Xinyue said.

"Did you know that someone was injured and did you call an ambulance after escaping from the room?" Fang Yi asked.

"No, I was very scared at the time, afraid that she would chase me, so I ran as fast as I could after leaving the yard. I didn't even think of calling an ambulance." Fang Xinyue had a look of panic in her eyes.

"Do you have anything you want us to tell your parents?" Fang Yi asked.

"Are they okay?" Fang Xinyue's eyes flashed. "It's okay." Fang Yi replied.

……

In the afternoon two days later, Fang Yi and Sui Xia were in the office, looking through the materials they got back from the court yesterday afternoon.The file on Fang Xinyue's intentional homicide case was transferred to the court by the procuratorate on the afternoon of the day Fang Yi went to the detention center for a meeting.

"Master, there are seven confessions made by the defendant Fang Xinyue in the case file. The contents of the first six statements are similar, but they are different from what we heard before.

Only the content of the last confession is roughly the same as what we learned in previous interviews, but there are some differences.

The defendant's confession was shaky. "Sui Xia frowned, twirling the pencil in his right hand, holding the last confession in the case file in his left hand, and looked at Fang Yi.

"What did she say the first six times?" Fang Yi put down the material in his hand and asked.

“According to Fang Xinyue’s confession, she and her boyfriend Cong Mingchang (a married man) have lived together for more than a year, and Cong Mingchang promised to marry her after the divorce.

But during the New Year's Day holiday, she discovered that Deng Shiyun and Cong Mingchang were having an affair, and then Cong Mingchang broke up with her..." Sui Xia recounted Fang Xinyue's confession.

According to the first six confessions, at the end of January, Fang Xinyue bought a mobile phone card (without using an ID card) at a roadside shop specifically for contacting Deng Shiyun.

At first, as Cong Mingchang's wife and sister, she persuaded Deng Shiyun to leave Cong Mingchang, but he was rejected by the other party. This caused hatred and the idea of ​​killing Deng Shiyun.

At the end of February, after she contacted Deng Shiyun by phone and confirmed that the latter had returned from her hometown, she went to Deng Shiyun's home as Cong Mingchang's sister.

Before entering, she bought milk tea drinks, chicken feet, pig head meat and some snacks at the supermarket in the village.Deng Shiyun's old Niu Niuwang was not at home on duty that night. After eating and drinking with Deng Shiyun's three-year-old daughter Niu Jiayan, she changed into Deng Shiyun's nightgown that night, and the two of them sat on the bed and chatted about the relationship issues between Deng Shiyun and Cong Mingchang.

During the conversation, Deng Shiyun took out a small Zang knife with a silver-wrapped handle from the bedside table and said that it was given to him by Cong Mingchang.

While chatting, they smoked a lot of cigarettes and drank milk tea together. After drinking, they went to bed. Deng Shiyun packed the empty bags into garbage bags and threw them outside.

When Fang Xinyue was sleeping, she thought about Cong Mingchang breaking up with her for Deng Shiyun. The more she thought about it, the angrier she became, so she picked up the Zang knife on the bedside table and slashed Deng Shiyun's left arm twice.She found that Deng Shiyun's arm was bleeding a lot, but Deng didn't react.

She thought it might be because the two of them smoked a lot, and she slept with Deng Shiyun's arm on her head, which made Deng Shiyun's arm numb, so Deng Shiyun didn't react.

At this time, Deng Shiyun's child woke up, cried out that he was thirsty, and called his mother. She was afraid that Deng Shiyun would wake up and see the wound on his arm, so she pinched the child's neck with her hands. The child cried and struggled, so she used a knife on the child's neck. I stabbed him twice until the child stopped moving.

She was afraid that Deng Shiyun would not die, so she cut Deng Shiyun's wrist with a knife.After using the knife, she put it on the bedside table.

After dawn, she heard someone opening the courtyard door outside. Because her clothes were stained with a lot of blood, she changed into clean clothes, took Deng Shiyun's mobile phone, put the bloody pajamas in a plastic bag, and left Deng Shiyun's house. I went to the village street, threw the plastic bags containing clothes into the trash can, and threw my mobile phone into the public toilet at the end of the village.
