I'm not a theatre god

early morning.

Wen Shilin, with two huge dark circles under his eyes, pushed open the newspaper door haggardly.

Last night, in order to sort out the evidence about the organ trade of the Qunxing Chamber of Commerce and prepare a draft of the article, he could be said to have stayed up all night. If it were five or six years ago, staying up all night would be nothing to him, but now after all As I approach middle age, my physical strength still cannot keep up.

As soon as he walked to his work station and was about to start today's writing work, a figure walked up to him.

"Mr. Wen, you don't seem to look well."

Wen Shilin looked up and saw Chen Ling, and smiled helplessly, "It's not bad, I'm just a little sleepy... Just drink more water in a while."

Before he finished speaking, Chen Ling placed a cup of steaming coffee on his table. The dense aroma hit his face, making Wen Shilin's eyes light up slightly.

He looked up at Chen Ling, who was smiling and saying nothing, with a complicated expression.

"Coffee is not cheap, it will cost you money."

Wen Shilin had been a reporter for so many years, but he hadn't saved much money. He was usually reluctant to drink coffee, a drink consumed only by the petty bourgeoisie. Chen Ling's actions at this moment undoubtedly moved him.

"What's going on?" Chen Ling smiled, sat down opposite him naturally, and then turned to the topic,

"By the way, I heard that the law enforcement officer Han Meng who came from District Three a while ago is going to be tried today? Do you know this news?"

"I know, the announcement was issued yesterday." Wen Shilin nodded while drinking coffee, "What? Are you also interested in this case?"

"I was also there when the train broke into the city, and I happened to see the whole process, so I have an impression of this law enforcement officer."

"No wonder...what do you think of him?"

Chen Ling pondered for a moment, "From a personal point of view, I feel that he did the right thing. At least he saved the only survivors in the third area."

"That's true." Wen Shilin seemed to have thought of something and sighed, "However, after all, he disobeyed the order in public, fought with other law enforcement officers, opened the door and let people in... Although he was not sentenced to death, But I guess I won’t be able to escape for thirty to fifty years or forever.”

"Do you want the sentence to be so long?" Chen Ling frowned unconsciously.

"I'm just guessing. The details will depend on the defense situation in court and the intentions of the top law enforcement officials."

Chen Ling fell into deep thought.

In order to protect Chen Ling and others, Han Meng did not hesitate to betray the Aurora City law enforcement officer. Chen Ling would naturally not forget this favor, but it is difficult for him to do anything in the current situation... After all, the black jail at the law enforcement headquarters can be compared with the Stars Chamber of Commerce. The dungeon is not of the same level at all. With his strength of only the second level, breaking out of the prison and rescuing people under the guards of the sixth or even seventh level is no different from an idiot's dream.

Fortunately, Han Meng will not be sentenced to death. As long as others are still alive, there is always a way to save him... Chen Ling thought.

"If you are interested in this case, why don't you go directly to the trial court to observe?" Wen Shilin suddenly said.

Chen Ling was stunned for a moment, "Can I listen?"

"Of course, all court decisions in Aurora City are open to the public, and even ordinary people can observe them... What's more, you are still a reporter."

Wen Shilin looked at the time on the wall and said, "It's almost time for the court session. Come on, I'll take you there. After you get familiar with the process, if you have another case that interests you next time, you can go there by yourself. ”

Before Chen Ling could say anything else, Wen Shilin stood up with his coffee, put his camera and notebook on his back, and walked straight out the door.

Seeing this, Chen Ling quickly followed.

The trial court in Aurora City is not too far from the newspaper office. The two of them walked for twenty minutes to the door.

At this moment, many people were standing scattered at the door of the court. At that time, the incident of the train entering the city had not completely passed, and the case of Han Meng still attracted social attention. They all registered their information at the door of the court, and then Go to the auditorium.

What Chen Ling didn't expect was that he also met an acquaintance here.

In the corner at the entrance of the court, several reporters carrying cameras were gathered together. They seemed to be from different media. Among them, Zhuo Shuqing was writing something in notes while thinking deeply.

Just then, he felt someone tap his shoulder from behind.

He turned around in confusion and saw Chen Ling's smiling face. He almost jumped up in fright and took two steps back with a pale face.

"You...why are you here??"

"I'm here to listen." Chen Ling glanced at the people around Zhuo Shuqing, her brows slightly raised, "But you...why are you here?"

"I..." Zhuo Shuqing swallowed, "I am also here to attend, representing the Aurora Daily."

"Oh? When will you be able to represent "Aurora Daily"?"

As Chen Ling's eyes narrowed, Zhuo Shuqing felt a chill surge into his heart. He opened his mouth, but no words came out.

"Lin Yan, I've registered you. Come in." Wen Shilin came from the side at the right time and was a little surprised to see Zhuo Shuqing here, "You are here too? Why, who paid for it?" Are you here to make false reports?”

Zhuo Shuqing's face immediately turned red to his ears, and he cursed bravely:

"Wen Shilin, what the hell are you talking about?"

Chen Ling seemed to have thought of something. She stared at Zhuo Shuqing with her eyes, her face suddenly turned cold, and a faint killing intent followed his gaze and locked onto him.

"Xiao Zhuo..." Chen Ling said slowly, "You should know that I hate people who make fake news the most. If you dare to have any evil intentions this time, it won't be as simple as the punch last time... "

Chen Ling took half a step forward, her cheek almost touching Zhuo Shuqing's ear, and a bone-chilling voice penetrated his skull.

"Do you believe it or not, I killed you?"

Zhuo Shuqing felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave!

He stayed there with his face as pale as paper, and the fear of being dominated by Chen Ling came to his heart again. He saw Chen Ling look at him deeply, turned around and followed Wen Shilin into the court, but even so, the cold murderous feeling The thought was still in his heart for a long time and could not be dissipated...

"Zhuo Shuqing, what are you waiting for?" Another reporter frowned and waved his hand, "Let's go, the court is about to start."

"oh oh."

Zhuo Shuqing came to his senses and followed in with stiff steps.

…

Chen Ling followed Wen Shilin and found a seat in the first row of the auditorium to sit down.

The building of this court is not small in scale. The walls are decorated with dark marble, which is solemn and elegant. The huge floor-to-ceiling windows of colored glass are located on both sides, refracting the sunlight into countless magnificent spots in the center of the court.

A tall and magnificent judgment seat, like a throne in the clouds, stands at the highest point of the court.
