I'm waiting for you in the wind and snow

Chapter 260 That's Because You Care
I didn't go into the police station immediately, just like when I came out last time, I was still sitting on the stone bench not far away, engaged in a fierce inner struggle... Although Tetsuo's ending could have been foreseen, but I really have to do it myself I still can't bear to push him.

I don't want to be the executioner who "killed" him with my own hands. I keep making assumptions. If the Seaview Inn in Longkan hadn't been demolished, wouldn't the current situation be the same?

It's hard to say, but at least at that time everyone had a heart to "live and work in peace and contentment", and life was quite relaxed and happy, and it was full of hope.

But life is so impermanent, and I have to accept this reality myself. Although I am a little bit unwilling, some things really cannot be repeated.

……

After sitting like this for a while, I took out the phone from my pocket, and looked at Ye Zhi's phone number that I had just saved in the phone book... I really believed in her, I believed that she had the ability to fight against such a human nature and In the complicated situation of human feelings, point out a clear way for me.

After lighting a cigarette, I finally pressed the call button on the phone screen...

Although Ye Zhi hadn't been gone for a long time, it seemed like a century had passed, so she couldn't help being a little rusty inside, and also a little uneasy, afraid that she wouldn't answer the phone, and afraid that she would be embarrassed if she answered the phone.

She answered.

I subconsciously coughed, and then whispered to her, "It's me... Mi Gao."

"I know."

"I didn't expect to know your phone number in this way... Originally, I didn't want to bother you so presumptuously, but now I have no idea. It seems that it is wrong to deal with this matter, but I can't let it go completely."

"Is it still about Tetsuo?"

"Well... Now the situation has become more serious. He has been reported and allowed others to take drugs and prostitutes. This is already a criminal offense..."

I just told Ye Zhi what happened next, and then waited for her opinion, and in the process, I seemed to be able to hear my own heartbeat...

While Ye Zhi was silent, I asked her again: "Should I truthfully report to the investigators that Tie Nan is going to buy a house?"

"This is a very important piece of evidence, and the laws of the country also give citizens the obligation to report crimes. From the perspective of morality and obligation, there is no problem for you to report back to the investigators." After a short pause, Ye Zhi continued Said: "Maintaining social order is a great righteousness, and protecting friends is a small righteousness. You should distinguish between the two... And from the essence, you are not harming him... I think his character There has already been a serious problem, if there is no strong means to stop him in time, he will only become more unscrupulous and unbearable in the future."

"I understand, but psychologically there is a hurdle that I can't get over."

Ye Zhi replied very neatly: "The you I know are not a person who doesn't know right from wrong... nor are you a purely abusive person. You have principles and bottom lines."

"If it were replaced by most people in this society, what would they do?"

"I don't want to answer questions like this...you are you."

"Ah."

"Be a neat and tidy man, don't be indifferent to entanglement... Human time is very precious."

"If you say that, it will give people a feeling of inhumanity."

After being silent for a while, Ye Zhi replied, "Actually, I am an unreasonable woman."

"Yes, I can imagine what kind of state you are in when you are dealing with work matters... Being able to stand in your position must have your excellence."

"In your eyes, is inhumanity the so-called excellence?"

"At least it's a way to protect myself... I'm particularly vulnerable to being hurt by such human disputes... Can you believe it, in the few days after the incident, my sleep time did not exceed eight hours in total , I know that I can choose to let it go, but there are some things in my bones that you can't change!... If I really don't care about anything, I may be more anxious and restless than now."

After a short pause, I said again: "Actually, you are not a really unreasonable person...at least when you get along with me, you are not like this."

Ye Zhi suddenly became less agile. She was silent for a long time before replying, "That's because I care."

I grabbed my clothes, as if I had torn a hole in the smoggy sky. Ye Zhi is not a person who is particularly good at expressing, but just a few words made me feel warm for no reason.

I sucked my nose and remained silent for a long time.

The one who broke the silence again was Ye Zhi, she said: "Actually, this matter is not as difficult to solve as you imagined... You should first fulfill your legal obligations and tell the investigators everything you know... and then help Tie The man finds a good lawyer and defends him well, and this kind of behavior of mitigating his crime through formal channels is the real help."

Ye Zhi's suggestion seemed to open a window for me, and it turned out that it was the right thing to find her to solve such a difficult problem. She really has an extraordinary perspective on such matters, and she must have It is precisely because of this ability that he can manage such a large group as a manager.

After a while of silence, I finally spoke to Ye Zhi and said, "I see. I'll go find a lawyer after I get out of the police station."

"Don't bother, go to Haidong Law Firm and find a lawyer named Lin Xiaokun. He is the legal consultant of our group in Dali area and a very experienced gold medal lawyer. Just say that I recommended him, and he will help. of."

"This...doesn't bother him, does it?"

"No trouble... If there is nothing else, I will hang up first."

"and many more……"

"Anything else?"

I was thinking about it for a while, and after I felt a little courage in my heart, I said to her: "When the matter here is settled, I want to go to Shanghai...can we meet then?"

"I won't meet you."

"What if I came back to Shanghai specifically for the sake of our relationship?"

"There are some things you don't need to explain to me... Let's do our own thing. I'm very busy this year."

I was disappointed for a while, and then I said to her in a low voice: "I don't know, whether this is a tactful refusal...Anyway, I will definitely go to Shanghai. I traveled to Shanghai once."

After Ye Zhi was silent for a short time, she took the initiative to hang up the phone. I felt sad for no reason, and then comforted myself...Maybe, she just wanted to be quiet, if she is really a heartless and unreasonable woman, She won't be like this now.

Anyway, judging from the matter of Tie Nan, Ye Zhi is a very well-mannered woman, her advice is very decent, and I also appreciate it... But in terms of feelings, she is actually struggling just like me.This is also understandable, after all, she doesn't have any emotional experience, even if she can control the way of dealing with people with ease, she may not be able to apply this way to emotions.

Rationally speaking, both Ye Zhi and I have a childish side when it comes to emotions, so suspicion is inevitable.

……

Looking up at the cloudless sky, I finally extinguished the cigarette in my hand, and then walked to the police station; without much trouble, I explained the matter of Tie Nan to Wang Xiaoling clearly, and pressed the key on the record. Put your own fingerprints.

In this regard, Wang Xiaoling was very surprised, because before, I had the attitude of saving Tien Nan at all costs, but now I took the initiative to explain the doubts about Tien Nan.

I didn't explain. I think she, as a police officer, should understand after thinking about it.

……

After leaving the police station, I went to the "Haidong Law Firm" non-stop, and found the lawyer named Lin Xiaokun. Ye Zhi had already greeted him, so when I offered to pay his lawyer's fees, he refused.

I could imagine what Ye Zhi had said to him, and besides being grateful, I also felt a little ashamed... Although she might not think it was a trouble.

……

After the initial communication, Lin Xiaokun went to Ma Jiuyi with me, and then signed a lawyer's agency agreement with Taozi. In the afternoon, he went to the Public Security Bureau to follow up on Tie Nan's case.

After that, I consulted a local friend in Dali; he said that Lin Xiaokun can be regarded as the best lawyer in Dali, and it would be particularly safe to entrust Tienan's case to him; in addition, this Lin Xiaokun is really good not only It is his professional level and his local legal resources, both of which are crucial to the principal.
