companion ghost

The sound of the alarm clock beeped, Shen Lie closed his eyes and stretched out his hand to press it to shut up. When he opened his eyes drowsily, he saw Ning Yuan lying on his side beside him, leaning on the side of his face with his hand, looking at it with a smile. with him.

So Prosecutor Shen felt better on such a sunny morning. He pulled Ning Yuan into his arms and kissed him: "Good morning."

Ning Yuan blushed a little because he was not fully awake yet, but his magnetic low-pitched voice made his heart beat. He lay on his chest without raising his head, buried his slightly flushed face, and was actually wondering all the time.

When did the relationship between them become like this?

It seems that everything is going well, everything is going with the flow.

No one deliberately pointed it out, and no one took the initiative to confess, and it gradually became like this in this kind of day-to-day life.

It seems like everything is a habit.

Ning Yuan seemed to have thought of something suddenly, and quickly propped himself up from Shen Lie's chest, his big and round eyes were bent: "By the way, let me tell you something——"

Before he could say what it was, he heard Shen Lie's cell phone ringing.Shen Lie looked at him, Ning Yuan shook his head to show that he was not in a hurry, Shen Lie squeezed his chin and kissed him again, and then picked up the phone: "Shen——what did you say?!"

Seeing that Shen Lie's face changed drastically, Ning Yuan was also a little silly. He rarely saw Shen Lie like this, so he couldn't help leaning towards him.

Shen Lie firmly pinched the phone next to his ear: "Are you sure?"

Dino also had a gloomy tone: "I won't call you if I'm not sure."

Shen Lie didn't speak.

Dino said again: "I'm sorry, but it is reported that he bought——"

"That doesn't matter to me, it's meaningless," Shen Lie interrupted him, "I don't care and I don't want to hear it." Before Dino could speak, he said directly: "I'll hang up first."

After retrieving the line, he threw the phone aside in agitation. The poor phone rolled on the carpet several times. Fortunately, the carpet is soft.

Ning Yuan frowned, and asked cautiously: "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with the case?"

Shen Lie looked at him with an unpredictable expression, and said after a while: "Rick Lisman [Note 2] escaped from prison."

Ning Yuan didn't remember who this name was at first, but after seeing Shen Lie's gloomy appearance, he reacted abruptly: "You mean the snake head with a 200-year sentence?"

Shen Lie hummed.

Ning Yuan's face straightened instantly, and he said anxiously: "You were the one who sent him to prison, and it was you who made him spend his whole life in prison, and he won't let you go if he escapes! "

Shen Lie said: "I know," his black pupils were full of coldness, "His sentence has reached 200 years, there is no hope in prison, if he escapes, he will die if he is caught. But he still escaped—— The purpose is very clear, he spent so much effort just to get revenge."

Looking at his still indifferent appearance, Ning Yuan panicked: "How can you act like you have nothing to do with you at all! I'm so mad at you!"

Shen Lie looked at Ning Yuan's panic-stricken look, but he still had the heart to smile, even though that smile was extremely cold.

He said: "What am I afraid of? It's not me, it's him who runs around like a bereaved dog."

Then he looked at Ning Yuan, fell silent for a moment, and still opened his mouth: "But as long as he is not caught, you will be more dangerous by my side—"

"Don't be funny," Ning Yuan also smiled, showing the dimples on his cheeks, "What can he do with a ghost?"

Shen Lie was taken aback for a moment, then shook his head amusingly.

Ning Yuan leaned back on Shen Lie's chest again, rubbed against each other, and said softly but firmly: "I will protect you."

Shen Lie lowered his eyes, looked at his messy but soft black hair, stretched out his hands and slowly rubbed it even more messy.

"Case No. 83339, State of New York indicts Joanna Splitter on one count of first-degree homicide, one count of unlawful disposal of a dead body, and one count of first-degree assault."

The court clerk handed the documents to Judge Donovan. Judge Donovan took the documents, glanced at Shen Lie, who was tall and tall in a black suit, and murmured, "Prosecutor Shen, long time no see."

Shen Lie bowed slightly to him: "Your Excellency, it seems that you had a pleasant trip to Hawaii."

Ning Yuan opened his eyes slightly: "How do you know he went to Hawaii?"

Shen Lie naturally picked up a folder to cover his mouth, turned around slightly, and squeezed through his teeth: "We also have a WeChat circle of friends, okay? And you can't tell that he is three shades darker than he was half a year ago ?"

Ning Yuan; "...Oh."

I thought you inferred it like Sherlock Holmes from the sunny smile on the cuff of his dirt suit (?), disappointment.

Shen Lie blankly glanced at his disdainful expression, and before he had time to ask, he heard Judge Donovan's question: "——Will the prosecutor allow bail?"

Shen Lie quickly turned around, expressionless: "In view of the seriousness of the defendant's crime, a wealthy family, and multiple passports, the prosecution requests that he not be released on bail."

Next to Joanna was the defense lawyer Gary, who said slowly with a big belly: "The prosecutor's words are wrong. My client has excellent grades at Hudson University, and is the president of the student union. The mouth turned into a serious crime? Therefore, the defense applied for OOR. 【Note 3】”

Shen Lie said coldly: "Your client brutally and inhumanly killed her friend, dug up her child, and ruined her face. There is no sense of shame or remorse afterwards, which is extremely harmful to society."

"Don't be funny, my client's family contributes a lot to the community and is a big taxpayer—"

"First, the 200 billion tax was paid by your client's parents, and has nothing to do with her; second, the amount of tax paid has nothing to do with the law. Is the defense lawyer implying that the law can use money to intervene? ?" Shen Lie interrupted him, and Gary was stunned for a moment.

At this time, Judge Donovan said: "I agree, if the defense lawyer dares to talk nonsense in my court again, I will sentence you to contempt of court—" He glanced at Gary angrily. I am now a lawyer, and still make this kind of mistake that can make others misinterpret the meaning, and I really go back to life, "The defendant will not be released on bail and will be remanded in custody pending trial."

After Judge Donovan struck the small hammer, he signaled the end of the hearing, and they hurried away.

Joanna and his lawyer passed by the prosecution's desk. She lifted her chin slightly and looked at Shen Lie arrogantly: "I'm actually curious, why are you so sure that I did it? You never doubted it? Why should I pay for it?" Doing my best to kill Peggy? Does she hinder me? Don't you find it strange?"

Shen Lie didn't even look at her, and took the documents scattered on the table one by one and put them into the document bag: "Why don't you ask yourself?" His black eyes just looked at this woman with delicate makeup, this appearance A glamorous woman whose heart is actually rotten and smelly, "Even if you don't even dream every night, don't you still wonder why you are such a person at a certain time?"

Shen Lie walked past her with his briefcase in his hand, and walked away without looking back.

"Don't you wonder why your heart stinks like a sewer?"
