Shen Lie stepped into the office of the Homicide Squad, and went straight into Auston's independent office.

—and closed the door.

Casey was holding a coffee: "I think there is going to be a big move, and I always feel very angry."

Dino also leaned against the table and stood side by side with him, nodding: "It's been a long time since I saw his face so gloomy, and no one will be happy if he is tricked like this."

Gloria shook her head: "A scum like Osterley will be knocked down with one shot."

Jerry held the newspaper in his hand, put his feet on the table, and sighed, "Capitalism."

"I don't think it has anything to do with capitalism," Casey said. "It's all about him being cunning."

Jerry raised his fingers and shook: "Young man, don't think too one-sidedly. Do you really think he will keep those procedures and paperwork so completely? I don't think so. Do you really think that the so-called wall Is the talk about sewers and basements true? I don’t think so. As for how much of this is done because of power and money, how do we know?”

Before Casey opened his mouth to refute, the door of Oston's office opened, and Oston's tall figure appeared at the door and waved to them: "You guys, come here."

The four of them looked at each other, feeling that a storm was about to come.

After entering the office, Auston signaled Dino, who was the last to come in, to close the door, and then said, "The prosecutor has an idea. It's bold, but it's not impossible."

After speaking, he motioned for Shen Lie to speak.

Shen Lie said: "When suing Vincent for assaulting and killing Louis, he admitted that he had a sexual relationship with Louis, and it happened when Louis was underage. At that time, he was already on the list of sex offenders [Note].”

"I remember," Casey recalled, "just after you lost the case, you seemed to sue him again for statutory rape. This time it was established, but it seems that you were not imprisoned?"

"Yes," said Shen Lie, "because the judge gave a suspended sentence of five years."

"Unbelievable." Gloria snorted coldly.

Jerry shrugged. "Let me say Capital again."

"But no matter what, he's still on the list." Shen Lie said coldly, "As long as he's on the list, we can do a lot in private."

Auston spoke again at this time: "The people present are the people we trust each other the most. I hope that everything I said today will stay in this room."

Everyone understood what he meant.

Shen Lie said softly: "He played with loopholes in the law, but the law won't make it easy for him. Since he's already on the list, we don't need to save him any more face."

"What are you going to do?" Kathy asked.

The corners of Shen Lie's lips curled up: "You can wait and watch the good show. I came here to say hello to you so that you won't be kept in the dark. But I can assure you, it will be exciting. Even if he won't do it because of pedophilia and Statutory Rape, some things have been done and should be known by all.”

Coming out of the office, Shen Lie went straight home.

He found an email address on a website, and then anonymously sent all the information from the website of the public list of sex offenders to that email address.

A successful sending page popped up on the computer screen, and after 10 minutes, a reply came from that mailbox.

"Thank you very much for joining, and may there be no more demons in this beautiful city."

Shen Lie didn't reply any more, pinched the bridge of his nose tiredly, logged out of the email account, and turned off the computer.

In the early morning of the next day, Vincent Osterley drove his limited sports car of the same model as Dino to work from the villa where he lived most often. Strange look.

He walked into the Empire State Building suspiciously, and the doorman who greeted him every morning with a bow and a smile acted like he hadn't seen him today.

——No, I can't say I didn't see it, he can be sure that the guard saw him, it was an extremely disgusting look, as if he saw something disgusting and dirty.

Vincent's heart sank. He turned around and walked out of the building. Looking around, he keenly found that there were many papers that were not there yesterday on the surrounding telephone poles, telephone booths, and walls.

Vincent had a bad feeling. He walked up to a phone booth and saw the print on it. His face was as black as ink in an instant, and he tore it off. But what's the use of tearing off this one?After all, the streets are full of ah.

NYPD Manhattan Homicide Squad

The officers were having lunch when Vincent and his lead attorney, Lyon, approached the door.

Casey threw the celery in the bowl into Dino's bowl, and Dino looked at him helplessly: "I should really show Karl the way you are now, and see what face you have to teach Karl not to eat green peppers."

Casey was confident: "How delicious are the green peppers? And they are full of nutritional value. When Carl is growing up, he can't be picky eaters. But don't you think the taste of celery is strange?"

"That's what Carl said about green peppers yesterday." Dino laughed.

Kathy buried her head in her meal.

Who is talking, can't hear.

Gloria tapped the rim of the bowl with her fork dissatisfied: "I ordered seafood risotto."

Jerry looked at her: "No, you ordered seafood spaghetti, which is the bowl in front of you."

"Impossible," Gloria vetoed, "It's impossible for me to order something with such a strange taste. This is your taste."

Jerry: "..."

Seriously, my friend.

I also think the seafood pasta here tastes weird!

In the end, Jerry resigned to his fate and changed his seafood risotto and Gloria's seafood pasta.

ma'am, ma'am.

Leon coughed twice at the door, but no one paid him any attention.

As a last resort, he walked straight up to Dino: "Officers, I am extremely displeased with your despicable methods."

Dino looked at him with a half-smile: "Mr. Lawyer, I am also extremely displeased with your uninvited behavior during lunch time to disturb others' meals."

Leon stopped playing tricks with him, he took the piece of paper that Vincent tore off from the phone booth and put it on Dino's desk: "Is this the way the New York Police Department does things?"

Dino saw the dust that was slapped by Leon's movements fall into his bowl, and suddenly lost his appetite.

Kathy took the piece of paper, on which a word was typed in large bright red letters: pedophile, followed by three exclamation points.Then at the bottom is Vincent's headshot, and at the bottom is Vincent's personal information.

"What's this?" Casey asked knowingly.

Leon was furious: "This kind of leaflets have been posted all over the community where my client lives and where he works, which has seriously affected his life and work. It is best not to let me know that the New York Police Department is in it, otherwise I will definitely let it go. You can't eat and walk around!"

"Mr. Snooker, you are very angry."

Auston came out of the office with a smirk: "Not to mention that your client is already on the list of sex offenders—this is a list that is publicized to the whole society, so your client can be said to be protected from any privacy. I can assure you that this is not the work of the NYPD. And you come to my property like a mad dog and bark at my people without any hard evidence, it makes me very sad Not happy. So please," he glanced at Vincent, "and your client, get out, now."

[Note] List of sex offenders: If you constitute a sex crime, whether it is rape, pedophilia, or statutory rape, you will be on a list, which is this list.This list is publicized to the whole society, and unless the verdict is reversed, it will never be removed from the list.
