How many times does a normal person have to die in the world of cultivation?

But Xin Lanru shook her head: "Xiao Xiao, after going to court tomorrow, let's set off again!"

Li Xiaoxiao endured the sadness in her heart. Her mother was still thinking about her father at this moment.

Li Xiaoxiao and Xin Lanru slept together at night.

Li Xiaoxiao went to work with heavy steps in the morning. After getting the documents from the office, he and Lao Qian went to the court.

They passed by He Sisi on the way, and neither of them looked back. However, Li Xiaoxiao noticed carefully that He Sisi had replaced the high heels with flat ones.

Li Xiao was absent-minded in court. Lao Qian was making the first argument and she was making the second argument. There was little chance to speak.

The case was reorganized to confirm once again that there were no doubts or flaws, and the evidence was presented one by one.

In the end, Cheng Tai was sentenced to death and was executed a week later.

Many judges and people in the news agency found this verdict very satisfying, especially Yu Binhong’s son.

He glared at Cheng Tai angrily, and if someone hadn't stopped him, he would have probably rushed up and beaten him.

On the other hand, Yu Binhong's wife was relatively calm.

Cheng Tai lowered his head and remained silent throughout. When the final verdict came out, he actually laughed out loud. Others might think this laughter was the whisper of the devil, which was frightening.

Li Xiaoxiao felt a little uncomfortable. He should be laughing at the injustice in the world!

Li Xiaoxiao knew that she shouldn't meddle in other people's business and look for unnecessary people, but she still did it.

She doesn't mind showing kindness as long as there is no conflict of interest.

Yu Zongjing didn't expect that the other party's defense lawyer would come to him, so he naturally didn't give him a good look.

"Don't worry, I'm not overturning Cheng Tai's case. On the contrary, I think he deserves to die."

After hearing what Li Xiaoxiao said, Yu Zongjing's attitude improved a lot.

"Didn't you know that Lawyer Li was looking for me?"

"Oh, it's nothing, I just want to make a friend. I wonder if Brother Yu is interested in having a drink with me."

Being able to be friends with a lawyer sounded very noble. Yu Zongjing went to a food stall with Li Xiaoxiao without hesitation, ordered barbecue and drank beer.

Li Xiaoxiao touched his beer belly and thought it was enough to drink a thousand cups.

So they opened up and drank. After drinking more than a dozen bottles of horse urine, the two of them were tipsy. They even went to the toilet together, and they immediately became warm.

Li Xiaoxiao then entered the topic.

"I heard that when you were in third grade, you were thrown into the hospital by a classmate with a stool?"

"How do you know?" Yu Zongjing touched the scar on his forehead that was covered by bangs in surprise.

Li Xiaoxiao didn't know, he just guessed based on the information Cheng Tai gave him. With such a lie, the fish would come out.

"It's written in the documents."

"Is this still written in the information?"

"Haha, don't underestimate lawyers."

Yu Zongjing no longer doubted it. Laymen always have an inexplicable admiration for lawyers, thinking that they can plan everything and are superior to others.

"Do you remember the name of the person who injured you?"

"I won't talk about something that happened so long ago."

Li Xiaoxiao poured him another drink, holding a cigarette in his mouth and said crookedly: "You can sue him!"

"It's been so long, can you still sue?"

"Of course, you have scars and disfigurement. It won't be a problem to pay you over 100,000 yuan." Li Xiaoxiao started to lie.

"The legal fees are not low, right?" Yu Zongjing took a puff of cigarette, feeling a little moved.

"Don't worry, the person who loses the lawsuit will be responsible for the costs."

"Can you really win?" Yu Zongjing questioned.

"If I wasn't sure, I wouldn't have mentioned it to you." Li Xiaoxiao pinched the cigarette butt in his hand with his fingertips.

Although Yu Zongjing thought this sounded ridiculous, he still started talking.

"That was my elementary school classmate. I can't remember his appearance clearly. I only remember that his name was Wei Zhenhai.

We had a very good relationship before, and he even came to my house as a guest.

But for some reason, he started bullying me and finally injured me.

I hurt my head and got a concussion.

Everything after that was handled by my parents, so I don’t know. "

Li Xiaoxiao's eyes flashed with thought. It seemed that the facts were not much different from her guess.

Seeing that Yu Zongjing's face was red, and he was obviously drunk, he proposed to send him home.

Giving him away is secondary, meeting his mother is the primary priority, she still has something to ask.

Yu Zongjing took Li Xiaoxiao back home without any suspicion.

Their home is in the old city. They said they wanted to develop it more than 20 years ago, but so far no action has been taken, causing residents there to complain.

After all, new development projects will not be implemented in the old city, but the people in the old city have been tempted by the demolition and have not left.

The gap between the new city and the old city is getting bigger and bigger. No wonder everyone is so angry.

Obviously the Yu family is also one of them.

The tube building is dilapidated, the exterior is dusty, and the key point is that the lighting is not very good, so the lights have to be turned on during the day.

Narrow, crowded, old things piled up.

Opening the security door, Li Xiaoxiao saw Yu Zongjing's mother, Tang Zhenghui.

Tang Zhenghui has good facial features and must have been a bright beauty when she was young.

She was a little nervous when she saw Li Xiaoxiao. Li Xiaoxiao showed a harmless smile and said: "Zong Jing drank too much, I will send him back."

He said and helped the person in.

Tang Zhenghui quickly opened the door of Yu Zongjing's room. Li Xiaoxiao put the person on the bed and saw the other party carefully taking off Yu Zongjing's shoes and socks.

Afterwards, Tang Zhenghui smiled sheepishly: "Lawyer Li, I'll make tea for you right now."

Li Xiaoxiao did not refuse, and the next step was the main topic.

Li Xiaoxiao sat on the shabby sofa, which was covered with off-white coarse cloth.

As soon as I sat down, my whole body sank in. It was obvious that there was a hollow underneath.

Li Xiaoxiao could only move his butt and found a solid place.

When Tang Zhenghui came out, he saw Li Xiaoxiao sitting on the sofa. His pupils were panicked for a moment, and he quickly glanced at the sunken place where Li Xiaoxiao had just sat, and then took it back.

"This tea is from last year, don't mind Lawyer Li."

"Of course not, but let's make a long story short, Madam. I was entrusted by Zong Jing to come to you to find out the situation."

"What did he entrust? What do you want to know?" Tang Zhenghui looked confused, obviously not understanding what her son had to entrust.

Li Xiaoxiao repeated his previous remarks.

After hearing this, Tang Zhenghui refused without hesitation, "It's been a long time since this happened, and besides, his parents both apologized at the time, so don't mention it again."

Although she tried her best to pretend to be calm, her voice was shaking.

Apparently she knew the truth.

This truth was hidden by a few of them.

Li Xiaoxiao picked up the tea, smelled the aroma, and suddenly said: "Mrs. Yu seems to be very happy about your husband's death."

"I don't know what you are talking about!" Tang Zhenghui's voice was a little louder, and the sound of turning over came from Yu Zongjing's room.

Tang Zhenghui immediately lowered his voice and said: "Lawyer Li, please come back!"

Li Xiaoxiao stood up, and Tang Zhenghui also stood up. The two of them walked to the door one after another. Suddenly Li Xiaoxiao turned around and pressed Tang Zhenghui against the wall, covering her mouth with his hand.

Tang Zhenghui's beautiful eyes were full of fear, and she didn't know why Li Xiaoxiao suddenly became angry.

Li Xiaoxiao just kept close to her ears and said: "Man is doing it, God is watching. The cause Yu Binhong planted himself has now come to fruition, and he deserves to die.

But can you, an accomplice, really live your whole life with peace of mind?

The thing hidden under the sofa is now in my briefcase. Do you think I should hand it over to the police? "

Tang Zhenghui burst into tears, flowing on Li Xiaoxiao's hands.

Li Xiaoxiao took his hand away in disgust, but this time Tang Zhenghui stopped shouting and just lowered his voice: "What do you want to do?"

Obviously still afraid of being heard by Yu Zongjing.

"Let's change places." Li Xiaoxiao opened the security door first and went out.

Tang Zhenghui followed out without even changing into slippers, but just took the keys aside.

The two walked one behind the other, two meters apart.

Finally Li Xiaoxiao entered a cafe and asked for a private room.

After the two sat down, coffee was served.

"What do you want to do?" Tang Zhenghui asked again.

Li Xiaoxiao shook his head and drank the coffee with milk: "I don't want to do anything. I just want to know the whereabouts of Wei Zhenhai's mother."

Hearing the name Wei Zhenhai, another complex look flashed across Tang Zhenghui's face, "I don't know."

"Do you want me to go to the police station and ask?" Li Xiaoxiao's patience has reached its limit.

Tang Zhenghui took a few deep breaths and asked, "Why do you think I know the whereabouts of Wei Zhenhai's mother?"

"Cheng Tai said 'please' to you in court today. Do you think I'm blind?"

Tang Zhenghui then leaned dejectedly on the sofa cushions behind him.

With a frustrated look on his face, he said, "How much do you really know?"

"This is not your concern. Now you just need to answer me, where is Wei Zhenhai's mother?"

Tang Zhenghui slowly said [Xihe Mental Hospital].

Li Xiaoxiao stood up to leave, but Tang Zhenghui held his hand.

Li Xiaoxiao turned to look at the frightened woman and heard her begging: "Give me back the things."

Li Xiaoxiao withdrew his hand and said, "I didn't take it at all."

After saying that, he left, leaving behind a stunned Tang Zhenghui.

Li Xiaoxiao, who returned to the car, took out the photo he had just taken from under the sofa at their home from his briefcase.

There are naked photos of boys on them. The boy's face shows panic, pleading, pain, and despair.

She saw a familiar face among these boys.

Li Xiaoxiao exhaled a long breath irritably. There are too many demons in this world.

I looked at the time and saw that it was too late, so I gave up on visiting the prison.

When she got home, Xin Lanru had already packed Li Shi's luggage.

Li Xiaoxiao was not in a good mood, but he still said with a smile: "Mom, can we go on a trip again in a week?"

Xin Lanru was stunned for a moment, but she didn't ask anything and said "Okay."

Li Xiaoxiao cried in his sleep, and the dreams were filled with helpless children.

Xin Lanru gently wiped away the tears from the corners of Li Xiaoxiao's eyes, patted her back, and started singing Li Xiaoxiao's favorite song.

[When I was a child and was noisy and willful

My grandma always sings to coax me

Grandma’s song comforts me in the summer afternoon

That song sounds like this

It's dark and it's raining

It's dark, dark, dark

I left my childhood and had a life of my own

fresh song fresh idea

When willfulness and impulse cannot be controlled

I forgot there was such a song

It's dark and it's raining

It's dark, dark, dark

I love someone who makes me desperate

I thought this was the world I was after

However, he was misunderstood and deceived

Is there always a disability behind the adult world?

I walk on the fork in the road that I have to face every day

I miss the simple and beautiful little happiness in the past

Love always makes people cry and makes people feel unsatisfied

The sky is big but I can’t see clearly, so lonely]

Li Xiaoxiao escaped from the nightmare when he listened to the singing, but did not open his eyes. He just held Xin Lanru's waist and asked in a hoarse voice: "Mom, why is there so much darkness in this world?"

Compared with this darkness, what she experienced seemed to be insignificant.

"You have been a child with strong empathy since you were a child. I remember when I was in first grade, there was a classmate who no one else wanted to play with because he had fleas on his body. You were the only one who didn't dislike him.

When others refuse to team up with him to play games, you stand up and say you are willing.

As a result, other children will not want to play with you.

I remember asking you, why don't you dislike him?

You said he was pitiful because no one played with him.

But you never feel that you are pitiful if others don't play with you.

Xiaoxiao, my mother is very pleased that you are a kind child, but my mother hopes that you can be a child who will not be harmed.

You can't take the initiative to hurt others, but others can't hurt you either.

Do you understand? "

Li Xiaoxiao nodded indifferently.

"Mom, I missed you all the time when I was there."

"I miss you as well."

"But I just want you to be well and live happily every day. Don't be sad because I left. This will make me even sadder."

"Okay, I understand."

"So mom, promise me to live a better life after the divorce, okay?"

"it is good."

Li Xiaoxiao felt a little better now.

After a warm night and a loving breakfast from her mother, Li Xiaoxiao had another day full of energy.

This time she took the initiative to visit the prison. Cheng Tai was surprised: "I thought you would never come again."

"Didn't you want to tell me a story last time?"

"Don't you want to hear it?"

"There was no evidence, but now I have evidence." He took out a photo.

This photo was roughly cut with scissors, leaving only a little boy's frightened face.

Cheng Tai stepped back suddenly, his stool fell over, and his body began to tremble.

I don't know if I'm scared or angry.

"How do you..."

"Now tell me, do you want to overturn the verdict?"

Soon Cheng Tai stood up and sat down again.

His face returned to calmness, but he didn't dare to look at the photo again.

"Lawyer Li, you are so cruel~"

"Do you want to, don't you? As long as you present this evidence, your chances of being sentenced to death are very low." Li Xiaoxiao still insisted.

Cheng Tai shook his head. Li Xiaoxiao was a little disappointed after seeing it, but he also thought it was normal.

Received the photo back.

After Li Xiaoxiao left, Cheng Tai asked the prison guard for pen and paper.

After leaving the prison, I drove to Xihe Mental Hospital.

After saying Wei Zhenhai's name, he soon met his mother.

The nurse said that she often treats pillows or quilts as children, and then protects them in a defensive posture.

If anyone approaches, she will scream: Don't come here! You are not allowed to touch my son! Wait and stuff like that.

It seems that she only went crazy after knowing the truth.

Li Xiaoxiao looked at her from afar and said, "I'm here to see you on behalf of Wei Zhenhai."

"Zhenhai, why doesn't my Zhenhai come?"

It seems that he is in good spirits at the moment.

"Do you want to see him?"

"I think so," she replied eagerly.

Li Xiaoxiao felt that what she was going to do next might be a little cruel, but she had the right to know the truth.
