Seventy Legally Blonde

Chapter 585 Investigation
Zhou Niannian walked out of the investigation bureau, she couldn't keep her eyes open under the warm spring sun.

She subconsciously covered her eyes with her hands, only feeling that the oppressive feeling inside just now dissipated a lot under the warm sunlight.

"Finished?"

Zhou Niannian turned her head and saw Xiang Wei and Xiang Jingshan standing under the willow tree nearby.

She nodded, "Let's go."

Xiang Wei and Xiang Jingshan hurried over, and Xiang Jingshan asked in confusion, "Where are we going? Lawyer Xiao Zhou, are we going to collect evidence?"

Xiang Wei's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly, "Really? I can't wait to show my skills."

Zhou Niannian smiled, it was rare for him to use this idiom well this time.

"Have you thought it through? Are you really determined to take charge of this case with me?" She thought for a while and asked seriously, "Even if Director Gao disagrees with us taking this case?"

Xiang Wei sneered, "What else are you thinking about? I already thought about it when I came out with Lawyer Xiao Zhou."

"And me, and me, I will definitely follow Lawyer Xiao Zhou." Xiang Jingshan took a step forward, patted his chest, with a simple and honest expression, "I feel that I can definitely learn a lot from Lawyer Xiao Zhou."

Zhou Niannian tilted her head and looked at the two uncles and nephews, "Aren't you afraid that after I leave, Director Gao won't let you two become regulars?"

Xiang Jingshan smiled and scratched his head, "My third uncle said, there is no place to stay here, but a place to stay. As long as we stick to our hearts, we will always be able to."

Xiang Wei couldn't help answering the words: "There will always be another village."

Zhou Niannian was amused. Although the quote from this poem is not appropriate, it will not make people laugh.

"Well, since you have made up your mind, let's work together to restore the truth of the matter." Zhou Niannian stretched out his hand and looked at his uncle and nephew with a smile.

Xiang Wei laughed, and immediately reached out his hand to shake Niannian's next week, "It's a happy cooperation, Lawyer Xiao Zhou."

The three of them walked out while talking, and asked Jing Shan puzzledly: "Lawyer Xiao Zhou, do you believe that Zhang Peilan didn't kill anyone?"

Although Zhou Niannian had an intuition that Zhang Peilan did not lie to her, she still told Xiang Jingshan seriously, "As lawyers, we should only trust the evidence, not whether we believe Zhang Peilan, but whether we can find a complete chain of evidence to prove that she did not kill anyone. "

Xiang Jingshan was stunned for a moment, scratching his head, as if trying to digest Zhou Niannian's words.

"Lawyer Zhou is really eloquent, what he said is great." Xiang Wei applauded, "Then where are we going next?"

The corners of Zhou Niannian's mouth twitched, knowing that Xiang Wei used idioms indiscriminately, and he didn't bother to correct him, so he thought Xiang Wei was praising him.

"Let's go to Mengjiang Village first."

On the way to Mengjiang Village, Zhou Niannian relayed what Zhang Peilan said to two people, ". Let's go to Mengjiang Village to investigate the scene again to confirm whether what Zhang Peilan said is correct. Let's see if we can find any new evidence."

Xiang Jingshan nodded thoughtfully, and recorded in the notebook he carried while listening.

Xiang Wei has not spoken.

When the three of them arrived at Mengjiang Village, Zhou Niannian took someone directly to Meng Sanqiu's house, expressing that he wanted to check the place where Zhang Peilan lived, and showed Meng Sanqiu the entrustment application written by Zhang Peilan.

There was a murder case in Meng Laosan's house, and people from the investigation bureau came to investigate several times. In order to facilitate the investigation and prevent people from destroying the evidence, the investigation bureau asked Meng Laosan to hand over the key to the village head, Meng Sanqiu, for safekeeping.

"I entrusted several layers of relatives, and I finally brought her a sentence. I didn't expect that she really listened to it. I hope you can really help her." Meng Sanqiu took a puff of dry cigarette with emotion, and then from his waist He took out a bunch of keys, "Let's go, I'll take you there."

When leaving Meng Sanqiu's house, Mrs. Meng Sanqiu led Xiao Xin back from the outside, still holding a small handful of pigtail grass in her hand. She must have followed Mrs. Meng Sanqiu to hunt pigweed.

Meng Sanqiu put the basket on his back on the ground, and greeted Niannian with a smile, "Niannian is here."

Zhou Niannian responded, feeling her pants being ripped off, she lowered her head and met Xiaoxin's dark deer-like eyes.

Xiaoxin's face was a little pale, and she looked listlessly, only a pair of bright eyes looked at Zhou Niannian.

She couldn't help squatting down, touched Xiaoxin's hair, and asked softly, "Did Xiaoxin go to hunt pigweed?"

Xiaoxin nodded, and said softly, "Well, feed the pigs, eat, and wait for mom."

Zhou Niannian didn't understand the logic of this sentence, and looked at Mrs. Meng Sanqiu in confusion.

Meng Sanqiu's mother-in-law sighed, and hugged Xiaoxin affectionately, "This child misses her mother, hides in bed at night and cries secretly, and then gets sick, and doesn't like to eat, your Uncle Meng will let her follow her." I went out to hunt pigweed, told her to hunt pigweed, feed the pigs, and when the pigs grew up, my mother would come back."

Zhou Niannian's eyes were a little sore.

"Auntie, can mother come back?" Xiaoxin looked at Zhou Niannian anxiously, with a very disturbed expression.

Zhou Niannian bent her lips, held her hand that was soaked in grass juice, and said affirmatively: "Xiao Xin eats well, and mom will definitely come out. When mom comes out, let her see a white, fat, beautiful girl. Bright Xiaoxin, okay?"

Xiaoxin's eyes lit up, and she nodded eagerly, "Xiaoxin eat, eat."

"Xiaoxin is so good!" Zhou Niannian patted her little hand. Seeing such a sensible child, she felt a little uncomfortable, and she became more determined to collect evidence as soon as possible.

"Uncle Meng, let's go."

Ever since a homicide occurred in the place where Zhang Peilan lived, the villagers were a little scared and rarely passed by here, but within half a month, the surroundings of the house seemed a little desolate.

Pushing open the far door, a lot of green grass sprouts have sprouted around the yard. It is conceivable that if no one lives there, the yard will soon be overgrown with weeds and dilapidated.

Meng Sanqiu sat down on the pier at the gate, "Go in and have a look, I'll wait for you here."

"Well," Zhou Niannian nodded, his eyes fell on the door, he glanced at the lock on it, and frowned, "Uncle Meng, you just changed the heart lock on this door?"

There is a brand new lock on the door.

Meng Sanqiu nodded, "When the accident happened that day, the lock on the gate was broken and couldn't be locked, so I replaced it with a new one."

"What about the original lock? Is it still there?" Xiang Wei asked excitedly.

Meng Sanqiu didn't understand what he was excited about, but he still answered his words, "It's here, I put it away, it's in my house."

Xiang Wei and Zhou Niannian looked at each other, Zhou Niannian nodded, Xiang Wei is indeed a careful person, and is also good at scrutinizing details.

Zhou Niannian suddenly felt that with Xiang's uncle and nephew as partners, this case should not be too difficult for her.
