Chapter 586 Unexpected
At midnight, before Lu Ren could wait for the lottery draw number to be refreshed, he received a call from Mao Lilan.

I only heard her hurriedly say on the other end: "Brother Ren, come here quickly, someone is dead. No, that's not right, don't come over yet, it's not convenient now, wait a little longer."

Lu Ren glanced at the time on his phone. It was already 11:59 in the evening, almost midnight.

Recalling what she said before, Lu Ren had a rough guess in his mind, "It's okay, don't worry, just tell me slowly, what happened? Where did it go wrong?"

"It's here, mom. Dad was almost sober just now, so I pulled him over to apologize to mom. As soon as mom opened the door, we found a female corpse lying on the ground."

"what?"

Lu Ren felt that he had seen the world, but he was still a little confused by what Mao Lilan said.

To be honest, given Ran Mouri's ability to summarize and express language, if you don't know, you would think that it was Eri Kisaki who killed her.

I can only pray that she doesn't go into journalism in the future, otherwise I don't know how many people will misunderstand her.

No, it seems that journalism is looking for this kind of talent.

Well... forget it. People should still have some conscience.

Lu Ren gave up the idea of ​​bringing Mao Lilan in, and replied: "Okay, I'll tell Bei Dao and the others, and we'll go together when the time comes. We'll talk when we meet."

"Uh-huh."

After hanging up the phone, Lu Ren immediately called Bei Dao.

As the actual person in charge of the company, she should be notified as soon as possible when something happens to her employees. As for whether the matter can be resolved, Lu Ren is not worried.

"What's wrong, Brother Ren?" It was already past midnight, and it was the first time for Bei Dao to receive a call from Lu Ren at this time.

After a little thought, she guessed what Lu Ren was going to say next, and couldn't hide her excitement and guessed, "Did Mr. Mao Li give the gift away?"

"That's not the case. A body was found in Lawyer Fei's room."

"what?"

"Yes. She is now involved in the murder case and is very likely the primary suspect. Pack up and come with me. Oh, and if Nanatsuki Koshimizu is still awake, bring her along as well."

"Okay. I'll contact her right away."

After hanging up the phone again, Lu Ren looked at Huiyuan who was lying on the bed next to him, "Xiao Ai, do you want to go to the scene with me?"

"Ah."

Five minutes later, Lu Ren and his group arrived at the room where Fei Yingli lived, only to see that the door was closed. Mao Lilan and Conan were guarding the door on the left and right like two door gods.

"What are you doing? Why don't you go in?"

"When we came here, Mom was taking a shower." Mao Lilan was a little embarrassed and whispered, "She is changing clothes inside now."

"Oh."

No wonder he was asked to come over and then told not to come over. So here is the root of the problem.

If that's the case, Lu Ren glanced at Conan. This guy was also...

The latter turned his head to the side, avoiding Lu Ren's sight a little uncomfortably. He knew what Lu Ren's meaningful gaze meant, but there were some things he didn't want to do...

After a few people waited patiently at the door for a few minutes, the neatly dressed Hibiki Eri opened the door from the inside and welcomed everyone in.

Compared to Mao Lilan, whose ability to express herself was poor, Attorney Fei's ability to express herself was undoubtedly dozens of times stronger. In just a moment, Lu Ren and the others understood the whole story.

After returning to her room at 11:10, Kisaki Eri went into the bathroom and started washing up. She stayed in the bathroom until 11:58 when Mouri Ran and the others arrived.

As a result, when she heard the doorbell and came out of the bathroom, she turned around and found that someone had done such a big job for her.

A fresh, still warm corpse was lying straight on the floor of her room. This was because Hibiki Eri was not an ordinary person, if it were someone else, they would have been frightened to death.

"That is to say, there was no body on the ground when you entered the room. You only saw her after she took a shower." Lu Ren pointed at the female corpse on the ground, "By the way, do you know who this person is? She doesn't look like an employee of our company to me."

If this person is really an employee of their company, then the person who attacked them is most likely one of their own. The reason is that they were treated unfairly at work and they are resentful and want to take revenge.

But this motive obviously doesn't make sense, because if she really wanted revenge, she should have come to Kitajima or him to frame one of them. It's no joke to find Eri Kisaki.

"She is my client. We had originally agreed to meet her tomorrow. But I didn't expect..."

Bei Dao added: "I have seen this person not long ago. I was about to go to the restaurant with Sister Yingli for dinner, and I saw her barging in drunkenly, saying that she wanted to sleep at Sister Yingli's place tonight."

"Do you agree?" Lu Ren looked at Fei Yingli.

"That's impossible. I'm not interested in taking care of a drunk. I called her husband, and he promised to pick her up as soon as possible. When I returned to the room and saw that she was not there, I thought her husband had already taken her away."

"She came to stay at the hotel with her husband, and the person who was supposed to pick her up didn't come to pick her up. Is that correct?"

"Ah."

It turns out to be a proof question.

It's nothing more than a couple's relationship being in discord, so they come to a lawyer to discuss property division during divorce, but they change their minds and kill the lawyer on the eve of the commission.

The script couldn’t be clearer.

Lu Ren asked, "Are they not in a good relationship and are they here to discuss the division of their divorce property with you?"

"It seems that the relationship between the two of them is not very good. When Ms. Kokubu first came here, she had a quarrel with her husband, but it should not have come to the stage of divorce. The main content of tomorrow's commission is that Ms. Kokubu was harassed and molested by a stalker."

"what?"

Stalker harassment?
Lu Ren looked down and found that although the dead person lying on the ground looked a bit weird, upon closer inspection, she was indeed quite pretty.

But if this is really the case, the previous inference will be questionable.

"That stalker is staying in this hotel today too?"

"Our original agreement was to let the stalker's mother resolve this conflict. He himself was not allowed to come, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble. But anyway, he may have come here on his own."

The deceased's husband, the stalker's mother, and the stalker himself.

So it’s not a proof question, but another three-choice question.

Lu Ren looked at Mao Lilan, "You should call the police, right?"

"Uh-huh."

"Then let's wait until the police arrive."

The situation is now very clear. The next step is to interview the three of them separately. But without the cooperation of the police, they will definitely not be able to do this job on their own.

"By the way, Maori brother, please step aside from the investigation of the next case."

"What?!" Mao Li was a little annoyed for a moment, "My wife is involved in a murder case, and you want me to stay away?!"

"Yes. That's why I asked you to recuse yourself." Lu Ren nodded and said calmly, "You used to be a criminal police officer. Don't you know the principle of recusation?"

In the process of handling criminal or administrative cases, when the police have some kind of interest or specific relationship with the parties involved in the case or their close relatives that may affect the fair handling of the case, the police should take the initiative to apply for recusation.

“But I’m not a police officer anymore.”

"Same, for the sake of credibility. Even if the local police give you face and are willing to listen to you, when it comes to court, the judges may not buy it. Believe me, if another reporter was here, he would definitely write a lot about this matter. Then there will be a lot of trouble." Lu Ren patted Mao Li on the shoulder, "It's okay with me here."

"Um……"
