Legend has it that there is a big devil in law and politics

Chapter 38 The Case Seems to Have Made Some Progress

In order not to affect the cooperation between the two, Gu Zixin took the opportunity of calling Bai Tianzong and stepped aside. In her opinion, Luo Lan's half foot had already stepped into the gate of the Gu family.

Although Luo Lan still felt a little embarrassed, in order to solve Zhang Jinlu's case smoothly, she could only resist the uncomfortable feeling and said in a low voice, "Lawyer Gu, what's your opinion?"

After Gu Shengtian drank the rest of the milk, he finally became serious. He signaled Luo Lan to follow him, and the two of them soon came to the study on the second floor.

The study room is not very big, with good ventilation and lighting. There is a huge bookcase on the east side. The upper layer is filled with books on law, the middle layer is filled with mystery novels, and the bottom layer is actually Detective Conan and Kindaichi's manga.

As soon as Luo Lan entered the door, she saw a stack of materials on Gu Shengtian's desk, which seemed familiar. She strode over and flipped through two pages, and was suddenly speechless in shock.

"Gu, Lawyer Gu, this is a copy of Zhang Jinlu's case file, you, how could you have this thing." Luo Lan casually flipped through a few pages, and continued: "No, no, your file is bigger than that. I need more details, this, how is this possible."

Gu Shengtian sat gracefully on the office chair, raised his legs and said: "I'm not a rookie, how could the information I got be incomplete? Look at page No. 12, there is also a mention of the deceased Xu Songning The mobile phone was also broken, although it may not be of any value, but it is definitely a clue worth pondering."

Luo Lan was shocked in her heart. She didn't understand the value of a damaged mobile phone, so she wondered, "Lawyer Gu, since you said it was worthless, why is this a clue?"

Gu Shengtian knocked on the table lightly and said: "The screen of the mobile phone is seriously damaged, it doesn't seem to have fallen naturally, I have done experiments with the same model of mobile phone, no matter how I shake it, it will not fall into the shape in the file In the end, I slammed it hard to the ground, and the damage to the screen was about the same."

"Gu lawyer, I still don't understand what you mean."

"The scene of the crime was not messy, there were no obvious traces of fighting, only traces of being attacked by the God of Wealth, so the police believed that the crime was committed by an acquaintance, but why the mobile phone was smashed into such a virtue is a big question. doubts."

Luo Lan nodded thoughtfully, and continued to ask: "Lawyer Gu, what you said made me feel hopeful again. Are there any other doubts?"

Gu Shengtian snapped his fingers and said with a smile: "It's really not bad for you to work for me for 2 months, don't look unwilling, how many female lawyers want to be my assistant, I can't even look straight Without taking a look, Shen Hentian said during the trial before that Zhang Jinlu may have planned it, and she was wearing white gloves secretly, so she didn't leave fingerprints when she committed the crime."

Although Gu Shengtian is very arrogant, what he has said so far is still reasonable, Luo Lanen said: "Lawyer Gu, I admit that you are indeed very good, and I will not talk about other things today. The fingerprint issue, there is Any doubts?"

"Assuming Zhang Jinlu didn't lie, then the real culprit must be someone else. Assuming Shen Hentian's guess is correct and the real culprit is really wearing white gloves, then what kind of person would carry white gloves with him?"

Luo Lan shouted loudly, and replied, "Thief, only thieves would do such a thing. Lawyer Gu, what you mean is that the real culprit in this case may be a thief."

Gu Shengtian shook his head and said: "I never said that, all of this is based on the premise that Zhang Jinlu did not lie, and it is also possible that she is really the same as Shen Hentian speculated, but it doesn't matter, since I joined this case , I must let her be acquitted, otherwise, how can I show my ability as a big devil."

Luo Lan frowned tightly, and replied: "Lawyer Gu, what do you want to do, don't break the law knowingly, you are a lawyer."

Gu Shengtian snapped his fingers and said with a smile: "It's nothing, since you believe in Zhang Jinlu, then we only need to prove that there is a third party who is suspected of being a thief at the scene, then we can clear her suspicion, by the way, I left early Now, before you use my trick to suspend the trial, did Shen Hentian provide any other evidence."

Luo Lan let out a cry, pointed at Gu Shengtian and said, "What did you say, you, your idea?"

"Of course, you really thought it was Zhang Jiani who came up with the idea. She is not good at the criminal field. Don't talk useless nonsense and carefully recall the details of the trial."

Luo Lan took a long breath, sat straight on the chair, and said in a deep voice: "After you left, the senior called another witness, that is, the witness of the case, Li Zhangde, who said that he happened to see him when he went upstairs to deliver the courier. Zhang Jinlu hurried downstairs, and then saw the door of Xu Songning's house was ajar, and Xu Songning was already lying in a pool of blood."

Gu Shengtian wrote down Li Zhangde's name on the paper, drew a circle heavily, and asked: "What did Li Zhangde say at that time, you repeat it exactly."

Luo Lan didn't know what Gu Shengtian wanted to do, so he had to repeat it from memory.

Gu Shengtian was listening and writing, when suddenly a bright light flashed in his eyes, and he said, "Luo Lan, what did you just say, 04:30? I remember that the report time mentioned in the file was 3:29, and there was a big difference in the middle." for an hour."

Luo Lan nodded and said: "Yes, I brought it up at the time, but the senior thinks that the incident happened too long ago, and Li Zhangde must have misremembered the time. Later, Li Zhangde himself admitted that he had misremembered the time."

Gu Shengtian drew a circle on the paper again, and said sharply: "How could it be such a coincidence, I just missed an hour, Luo Lan, you said that because his mobile phone was out of battery, he only knew the time by looking at the wall clock in the supermarket ?”

"Well, that's how Li Zhangde explained it."

Gu Shengtian snorted, and said with a smile: "Okay, our conversation was not in vain, we finally have some clues, this matter can't be rushed, there are still a few days, we must collect the most powerful evidence against Zhang Jinlu , Luo Lan, do you know anyone in the police station?"

Luo Lan immediately thought of Ye Fan, then narrowed her eyes and said, "Lawyer Gu, why are you asking this?"

"So you have acquaintances, you go to your acquaintances to learn about Li Zhangde's background, see if there is any connection between him, Zhang Jinlu and the deceased Xu Songning, I will inform you of the next action later, you can go back now gone."

Gu Shengtian said it politely, Luo Lan would feel a little uncomfortable for a while, she quickly stood up and said goodbye, who knew that when she opened the door of the study, she saw Gu Zixin standing at the door with a smile on her face.

"Luo Lan, why did you leave so quickly, sit down for a while, and Sister Xin will cook some special dishes for you at noon."

"No need, Miss Xin, I still have important things to do, so I won't bother you, I'll go back first."

Gu Zixin didn't force her to stay, but waited for Luo Lan to walk away, then walked into the study with her fists clenched.

There was only a bang, and the door of the study was closed, and then came Gu Shengtian's somewhat flustered voice: "Sister Xin, you, what do you want to do, I have already started cooperating with Luo Lan."

"I don't want to do anything, my hands are itchy, can I beat you up?"
