Best Actor

    "Did you do what you're supposed to do?" Sean sneered, grinding his teeth, feeling very unhappy with his calm appearance, "When do you just act casually without my consent, Is it your duty?"

    "One of the responsibilities of a broker...is to protect the interests of clients," Frederick rubbed the corners of his mouth, hissing, his expression still calm, "doing his best It is possible to use all available means to protect the interests of customers.”

    "So I have to thank you?" Sean said sarcastically, but at the same time he turned around and covered his forehead.

    He knew that Frederick had done nothing wrong, and it was true that the agent did not make his own decisions with permission, but it did help him and did not let him and Kate's relationship is exposed. Perhaps when Kate was testifying, the reporter's idea was raised, but his subsequent performance drew his attention back to himself. Frederick even thought of this and helped him find a reasonable excuse, even if there was It should be that the merit outweighs the demerit.

    In fact, Sean would be so angry, more because he was angry, because he sent Kate a message from the beginning, asking her not to come out no matter what, he also made up his mind in his heart, never Involve her. But because of Frederick's unauthorized actions, he broke his trust in Kate. Although he finally came out to testify, he did perjury. I don't know what she would think, and it was inevitable that this would be the case under anxiety.

    "It doesn't matter what you think of me, it doesn't matter what you want to do afterwards, but Sean," Frederick wiped his nose with the back of his hand and looked at him calmly, " Today can be my end day, but it should never be yours."

    The room fell silent, one of them leaned against the wall, the other had their hands on the wall, and no one spoke for a long time.

    Finally, Frederick said, "I'm going out first...don't worry, it'll be alright..."

    Before speaking, Sean's voice rang: "I'm sorry."

    The agent blinked and didn't seem to react yet, and Sean had already stood up straight and turned his head, with a wry smile on his face, his eyes wandering a little, he didn't dare to look at him .

    "Sorry, Fred." He said that again, a formal apology.

    "It's okay, this... this is what I should do." Frederick grinned and became a little embarrassed.

    "You also punch me." Sean raised his head and said this suddenly.

    Frederick looked at him in a daze, until he repeated it again, before he came back to his senses: "No...I can understand your anger...so..."

    "I insist, Fred, it's my fault." Sean sighed, then patted his face, "Come on, don't mind, because...I don't know Why... I had to punch you."

    The agent hesitated, then reached out his hand to make a fist, and carefully touched his face.

    Sean rolled his eyes immediately: "I asked you to punch me, not you to touch me."

    "I think it's okay." Frederick explained, but under Sean's gaze, he threw a punch again, but although the strength was a little bigger, it was nothing like before. the difference.

    "Do you need me to punch you again?" Sean rolled his eyes again.

    "Okay alright..." Frederick sighed and punched Sean in the face.

    Sean immediately took a few steps to the sidelines, covered his face and hissed for a few breaths before he recovered, grinning at Frederick: "Fred, you shoot It's really heavy."

    Frederick did not speak, but spread his hands, obviously saying: You asked me to fight. But he still quickly came over to take a look. Fortunately, Sean's mouth was just a little broken, and he was much better than him just now.

    "Need... um... take a break?" Frederick didn't know what to say, and it was only after a long while that such a sentence came out.

    "No...it's all right." Sean shook his head and took a deep breath. Although the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, it was no longer so painful.

    The two of them looked at each other like this, and suddenly laughed together, shaking their heads, as if the previous thing was very funny. Then, Sean stretched out his arm first, hugged Frederick, and patted each other on the back.

    "Thank you, Fred."

    "Me too, Sean."

    Both of them said a sentence full of emotion, although it was only a short sentence, but the meaning contained in it is understood by them who have come together today.

    After that, they waited for three days before the jury made a verdict. Although this efficiency is not the slowest, it can also be known that the jury is arguing fiercely. After all... the prosecution Charged with second-degree murder.

    "Please give the jury verdict to the clerk." Following the judge's voice, a middle-aged woman sitting in the middle of the jury stood up and put a thin page of paper in her hand. handed over to the police.

    As the verdict was handed to the clerk by the bailiff, the defense team all stood up and looked at the paper that seemed to be of great weight even though it was only one page, and Sean closed his eyes. He closed his eyes and couldn't help recalling the last submissions of the defense and the prosecution.

    "A responsible person will not lie constantly, a responsible person will not hide the truth, so Mr. Tang is not as innocent as he said. Ladies and gentlemen, we We're not talking about someone's love history here, we're talking about a person's life, no matter what kind of person Mr. Bennett is, he's a victim of this accident, and we must bring the culprits to justice. "

    "I think you should see it very clearly, Sean has a bad side, but also a side of sticking to his bottom line, he doesn't take drugs or alcohol, he can take responsibility for protecting the people he loves Bad consequences, so if he really hit someone at that time, he would definitely not run away, but wait for the police to come. All the evidence is in front of you, the only thing you need to do is to acquit him!"

    It will be fine. Said silently in his heart, Sean opened his eyes, and the clerk who got up had already started to read.

    "Case CGUY-6071-0091, convicted by a jury, regarding Sean Tang's second-degree murder charge..." The moment the middle-aged woman serving as a clerk read this, the atmosphere in the courtroom seemed to freeze .

    Sean closed his eyes, clasped his drooping hands gently, his heart was relaxed, and then hugged the lawyer next to him in turn, although he was still a little dazed and uncomfortable, he did win the lawsuit .

    However, the matter is not completely over. Although the prosecutor can't say anything more because the verdict has come out, it does not mean that the media will keep their mouths shut.

    " Sean Don won the case, but it's hard to tell if he's not the killer, although Cate Blanchett claims to have seen it at two or three o'clock at night He has passed him, but who knows what happened," one newspaper said amid reports of Sean winning the lawsuit.

      It's hard to clean up one by one. Even so, some crime TV programs still recruit various experts to discuss whether Sean may be the murderer in the name of analysis. Anyway, the jury found him innocent, but it doesn't mean he must be innocent. .

    In addition, whether Kate's testimony is credible, and whether there is anything tricky between Sean and Kate, these are all in their discussions, which is extremely annoying.

    However, this situation only lasted a few days after the verdict, because a week later, news came from San Francisco that a private investigator reported a gangster in a speakeasy, which is the case the real murderer.

    The story is very simple, the private detective was originally hired to investigate some things, and met the gangster in the speakeasy. Add a little cocaine and the talk starts to grow. When someone asked him what he had done, the guy laughed triumphantly and declared that he was the real murderer of the recently rumored case where a big star hit someone to death and escaped. He not only stole a car and hit someone , and let a celebrity take the blame for him, of course he is quite proud.

    Most people didn't care and basically thought he was talking big, but the detective listened and called the police. The San Francisco Police Department dispatched quickly this time and caught the guy on the spot. Although the guy denied it, the detective happened to record it, and then asked the Los Angeles police to assist in the investigation.

    San Francisco police are still very sharp this time. Although the Los Angeles police are not interested, they still re-examined the evidence car in detail and thoroughly, and finally found two in the corner of the back seat. A fingerprint that was ignored by the Los Angeles police, and took it back for a comparison check, it was determined that it was the car thief!

    So, after some intimidation, coercion, enticement, and various deals, the guy recruited, and he really stole the car. The position of the monitor was also right in the blind spot of the monitor, so he opened it without much effort. Originally, he was very careful. He wore gloves when stealing and driving, but he accidentally knocked over the bag containing cocaine that he had put behind him. Fingerprints were left on the back seat.

    Later, after running away for a few miles, he threw the car into the woods and managed to get to Nevada. Originally wanted to go further inland, but then I heard that Sean took the blame for him, so he settled down, and finally went to San Francisco to join a cousin, so he was finally arrested now by accident.

    This is thanks to the efficiency of the San Francisco police, and then the "San Francisco Chronicle" took the lead in publishing the detailed story, and the various media who had sworn to say something before were immediately slapped, and dared not talk about this again, And Sean finally found a chance to meet Kate.
