On the other side of the cell in solitary confinement, the meal delivery personnel stuffed a dinner into the floor of the cell from a small grid. The assassin arrested in Elian''s pursuit of Bruni calmly ate the dinner, knocked on the prison wall, and then suddenly punched himself in the face. He was black in front of his eyes and had Venus on his head.
The two prisoners were silently "beating" themselves. When they were tired, they would choose to rest and continue to destroy their bodies. They didn''t realize that there was a big problem until the prison guards patrolling at night found their situation.
Both of them were sent to the prison hospital. The doctor on duty frowned. He asked the prison guard to place them on two adjacent beds, and then couldn''t help complaining, "next time, please don''t be so extreme? Even if you hate them, you can''t lay such a heavy hand. What if you kill someone?", He went to the edge of the left hospital bed and looked at the unconscious prisoner on the bed. His arm was twisted at a strange angle.
Needless to say, it must be caused by excessive punishment.
Often, some important "witnesses" are temporarily detained in the first imperial prison. In order to pry out what they are interested in from their mouths, beating is only the most common way. It''s just that this time they seem to have gone too far. They may have been angered by these two guys, so they made a heavy hand regardless of everything.
The prison guard who sent them smoked at the corners of his mouth. In the end, he didn''t explain anything. No matter what they said, I''m afraid the doctor won''t believe it. Instead of wasting time and saliva on meaningless things, consider how to report the situation next.
They don''t know who moved the hand, but someone must have done it. These two guys are very important. Someone can beat them in prison. The little prison guards can''t intervene in the matter behind this.
When the prisoner with broken arm woke up, the doctor sighed, "I''ve tried my best to reset your arm, but you should be mentally prepared. There may be sequelae, and sometimes you can''t use your strength." after he said that, he stared at the prisoner. The prisoner looked at the ceiling blankly, as if he didn''t hear it. But the doctor knew he heard it from the slight change in the details on his face.
Maybe I can''t face this fact. The doctor who doesn''t wonder returns to the table and continues to look at the latest medical journals in his hand.
The next morning, the police investigation bureau rushed into the infirmary. One of the thin guys with short hair went to the bedside and looked at the two miserable prisoners on the bed, almost lifting the table. He is going to take them away today and go to illian to testify against Turin, but the day before they are about to leave, someone actually came into contact with the two prisoners. Did the people who came into contact with them say something to them, and will they change their words?
All this is unknown.
When he came out of the infirmary, he said sternly: "Check, find out who contacted them, what they said, who that person was, and how he got in. First, there are so many important prisoners in prison, and we don''t know. What did your prison do?"
"You can''t find out the result within a week. Find someone to hand in your resignation letter!"
Four days later, at the port of ilian, when ANP was waiting for the witness from the imperial capital to come, he accidentally saw an acquaintance. He pricked his forehead slightly, walked over with a smile, "Hello, Kevin, how do you choose to come to ilian at this time?" and said that he looked at the empty street around him, "This is not a good time to travel. You should go to the south."
Kevin also smiled, "how do you know I''m here to travel, not on business?"
"Because of Dooling?", ANP said the last answer in his heart.
When they were in the imperial capital, they were trying to avoid each other. It was not that they were afraid of each other, but that they were unwilling to devote their limited time and energy to a case that was bound to waste time. If Kevin represented the case and met ANP as the prosecutor, both sides would certainly entrust a case for a few months or even longer. There was so much time Wouldn''t it be better to represent more cases or solve more cases?
But this time, ANP didn''t expect that the two sides still collided.
Kevin nodded with a smile. "Mr. Dooling is a very forthright and high-quality client. Almost all lawyers like him and are willing to make friends with him."
This sentence confirmed ANP''s question. ANP once again had an unspeakable feeling in his heart. He stared at Kevin, frowned, narrowed his eyes and asked, "when did you come? Why didn''t you say it in advance, so I can pick you up."
"I''ve been here for a while. I live there..." he pointed to the manor on the North sea cliff. "Do you want to get together at night?"
ANP shook his head. "What''s up? Do you have confidence in this defense?"
"I have confidence in myself!" Kevin replied with a smile.
They talked like ordinary friends. The more they talked, the more upset ANP became. Obviously, Kevin has been in illian for some time, so what has he done during this time, what investigations have been done on this case, or. In his mind, Kevin seems to be very positive in the evaluation of lawyers and rich people, but in the judicial industry, Kevin''s wind evaluation is not so good.
This guy is willing to do any case that may win for money. At the same time, his means are not so glorious every time in order to keep his high consulting fee and winning rate. Although so far no evidence and witnesses have come forward to testify against Kevin, most prosecutors believe that Kevin is very likely to be suspected of using illegal means to change the witness''s position and testimony and influence the jury''s decision outside the court.
This is a very mean person, but he is good at packaging himself and protecting himself.
There was a moment of silence between them, and no one was willing to speak again. They all knew that the battlefield was no longer at the dock, but at the trial.
The passenger ship in the distance has gradually become a behemoth from a big bean. Few people come to Yilian in winter. At this time, it is not far away from spring. Yilian will be full of tourists again in two months at most. But at this time, no one wants to spend the winter in this cold place.
There were only a few people on board, and the captain didn''t seem to like it here. When the people on board left the gangway, they immediately put away the ladder, then set sail again quickly and left the frozen place.
Kevin''s assistant is two young women. They say they are young. In fact, they are in their thirties. They are wearing women''s formal clothes. They seem to be a little uncomfortable with the temperature here. Kevin glanced at the hooded witness, smiled and nodded to amber before leaving.
The inspector of the General Bureau of police investigation, who is responsible for escorting prisoners, also knows Kevin. In the imperial capital, almost most people in the industry related to law know Kevin. He scratched his eyebrows together and asked in a somewhat agitated tone, "why is he here?"
While signing his name on the handover procedures, ANP replied, "what else can we do? Where can we pick up money, these vultures will appear!" he returned the signed documents to the escort detective, went to the first witness and untied the rope on his head cover, "is the road going well?"
The inspector didn''t speak. The movement in ANP''s hand suddenly stopped. "What''s the matter?"
The inspector had no way to get angry. He could only restrain his anger and whispered, "you''d better see for yourself!"
Then ANP untied the first man''s head cover. It was Bruni. His cheeks were a little purple and his eyes were a little blue. After four days, it didn''t look as obvious as when he was beaten, but people could find that this guy was beaten hard at the first time. It is a very serious mistake for an important witness to be physically injured. In particular, the first court session will be held tomorrow. ANP couldn''t help lengthening his face and sternly asked, "have you taken measures?"
"No..." the inspector didn''t know how to explain. He could only tell the truth. "He fell in the restaurant and then buckled his dinner on someone else''s head..."
Amber laughed angrily. "Why don''t you give him a separate meal?"
Several consecutive questions made the inspector uncomfortable. It was not his fault. Who knows how those people in the prison arranged it? He snorted and smiled angrily. He patted his trouser legs with a smile. "You have to ask your colleagues in the prison, not me!" he glanced sideways at the people brought by ANP. "Well, smooth handover. Next, I''ll go to other places to investigate the case. I''ll teach you here."
With that, he took people directly away.
Contrary to the previous series of good news, a series of bad news has cast a shadow on the inner world of ANP. He asked the three witnesses to be sent to the naval base while considering the evidence in his hand. It can be said that apart from the testimony of several witnesses, there is no direct evidence pointing to Dooling. Including the note provided by Bruni, there is only one time and place, which can''t explain anything at all.
If something goes wrong with these witnesses... He remembers the warm smile on Kevin''s face when he left, and his heart keeps falling down, almost falling into the abyss!
He doesn''t like Kevin and hates Kevin, but I have to say that Kevin is the most dedicated person he has ever seen in terms of his own job as a lawyer. He is definitely a difficult guy.
He hesitated again and again. After returning to the hotel, he called the Vice Minister of Finance far away in the imperial capital.
