First-Class Lawyer - Chapter 91

[Chapter 90 Concept (2)]

Gu Yan didn’t expect that he would suddenly ask this, so he stopped and glanced at the pot of Chang Qingzhu who lost his life, “Change the subject, or do you want to settle the old account?”

Yan Suizhi said with a “tsk”, thinking that last night His classmate Gu was very likable, but he was restrained in every possible way but a little bit annoying. He was afraid that the infection would urge him to go upstairs and go to bed early, but he leaned against the door with his arms folded and looked at him with a heavy gaze.

Even this morning when he went downstairs and sneezed for the first time, showing signs of a cold, Gu Yan’s reaction was very interesting – he turned over the medicine box for half a minute with a steady face, and then silently covered his forehead Start self-reflection.

Yan Suizhi couldn’t help laughing beside him.

Although he was used to being a big-tailed wolf, when he opened his eyes in the morning, he was actually a little uncomfortable. However, Lawyer Gu’s series of reactions rescued him, so that his discomfort only existed for less than half an hour, and after a moment of meaning, it disappeared.

After that, until he came to the law firm, he was keen on a very interesting thing – teasing Gu Yan.

In fact, he was very proficient in this matter as early as ten years ago, but he did not expect it to become even worse ten years later.

The only difference is that Gu is no longer angry.

He wanted to say to Gu Yan without smiling, “Why did you change your face when you saw the sun, and you doubted my motives? I’m just curious about your thoughts.”

Yan Suizhi paused for a moment, then calmed down again. He smiled and said, “Actually, I am curious about a lot of things about you.”

This kind of thought was probably the first time in his life.

In fact, he has never been easy to get close to, always walking away from everyone’s safe distance, not giving others a chance to enter his life, and never getting too involved in other people’s lives.

“You don’t need to explain what kind of ideas you have, because people’s ideas are always divided. As long as you think it’s worth it and you won’t regret it later, you can try it…” This is what he used to say.

Gu Yan was also one of the listeners.

But now it’s different. It’s like he has entered a territory with a gate reserved for him. After getting used to it, he finally begins to take the initiative to get close to people.

This is probably a different kind of special treatment, and of course Gu Yan will not refuse it.

“I did have the idea of disagreement…” He repeated in a low voice, pondering for a moment: “For me at that time, it was not a particularly pleasant experience, so… I don’t know where to start. ”

I remember one year at a reception, when I was watching the night view from the balcony, you asked me a question about… Keeping the original intention?” Yan Suizhi tried to recall for a while, then chuckled again, “I can’t remember. It’s clear. Was it that time?”

“You actually remember?” Gu Yan was a little surprised.

Yan Suizhi: “I remember a lot more things than you think.”

Gu Yan looked at him for a moment, then nodded and said, “That’s right, but that’s just a fuse…”

“This is still A chain reaction?” Yan Suizhi raised his eyebrows.

Gu Yan: “…”

It’s not actually a chain reaction. It’s not so much that Gu Yan suddenly found out that he didn’t agree with Yan Sui’s ideas, but that he suddenly realized that the original intention he had always held, It doesn’t seem to be enough to fully reflect on reality.

He hadn’t explained much yet, but Yan Suizhi had already keenly caught the source.

In other words, although Dean Yan is not close to people, he actually understands the struggles and changes that students may experience in those years.

He asked Gu Yan a seemingly endless sentence: “If I remember correctly, you are from Helan Star? Your parents are… soldiers?

” Pay attention to the origin and background of students, this is not a topic that teachers, students or classmates often talk about. However, Yan Suizhi at that time still learned some simple information from Gu Yan’s words.

But that’s all.

Others may have limited knowledge of Helan Star, but Yan Suizhi is different. He clearly knew that there was a conflict between Helan and the interstellar pirates less than thirty years ago. It was the biggest conflict in hundreds of years, and the number of troops involved was countless. Of course, there are more interstellar pirates folded in.

After that conflict, Star Helan got a letter of commitment from the pirate chief not to attack for three hundred years, and there were also hundreds of thousands of orphans, all of whom were descendants of soldiers.

Therefore, he has always regarded this as a sensitive topic by default. In terms of the relationship between teachers and students between universities, it is not suitable to ask more questions.

Gu Yan nodded when he heard the words, and answered to confirm his guess: “Well, they are all soldiers, but they have already passed away.”

Yan Suizhi looked at him, and suddenly understood the reason why he would struggle with ideas – Helan star soldier The character of absolute loyalty, absolute justice, and absolute self-giving.

If his parents were both soldiers, and they happened to be soldiers who died fighting for the people of the home planet, then the beliefs they held would often dissolve in the blood of their descendants in a deeply ingrained way.

He had seen many descendants of soldiers in the welfare home of Helan Star, almost without exception.

Gu Yan saw Yan Suizhi’s expression.

It’s very strange, it seems that he has experienced everything last night, and now he can clearly know what the other party is thinking without the other party opening his mouth, and even the steps of guessing are avoided. Maybe it was Yan Suizhi’s response last night that gave him enough confidence.

He added: “But I’m not an orphan. After my parents died, I lived with my grandfather. He was a judge.”

A very serious and upright judge.

Therefore, Gu Yan’s bones are filled with very distinct and even stubborn concepts – loyalty, justice, self-dedication from soldiers, and fairness and rigor from judges.

Even when he entered college and planned early to pursue a career as a lawyer, this philosophy never changed.

He is not ignorant of the industry, on the contrary, because of his maternal grandfather, he has learned about lawyers earlier than many people.

But people are always like this, especially young people, who are in high spirits with a little innocuous arrogance. When making scenario assumptions, they will always subconsciously construct an ideal situation and result, and they will definitely think that they will do it. do, how to achieve the purpose.

In his student days, Gu Yan was more stable and self-sufficient than many people, but the arrogance of young people was not less, or even more, and the things he insisted on were more serious than many people.

This is the beginning of the conflict.

“In high school, I heard one of your lectures.” Gu Yan said, “You said at the time that lawyers deal with all kinds of lies every day, and some of them even lie often themselves. Many people know that their clients are Guilty, but at the end of the defense, they always forget it, as if their client is more innocent than anyone else. Over time, the question of ‘who is to be trusted and who is right’ is lost because it makes them It’s hard to be happy about

winning—” he said casually, reminiscing as he spoke.

Yan Suizhi was surprised that he remembered it so clearly, and the content of his words differed very little. In his impression, the student sitting in the front row, who was as cold as a mint leaf, didn’t take notes during the whole process.

“—You said to the student who asked the question, I hope she can remember this question and think about it occasionally, because it represents the pure original intention of the student days, and I hope everyone can keep it longer.” Gu Yan finished. After being silent for a few seconds, he said, “I was actually pleasantly surprised at that time.”

Yan Suizhi raised his eyebrows, but after holding back for a while, he couldn’t hold back, and said, “I just remember that lecture, and… just remember you. Forgive me. Let me be blunt, I thought you were here to pass the time and mix credits, and I didn’t see you being surprised at all.”

Gu Yan: “…”

However, due to Professor Yan Da’s half-joking interruption, Gu Yan was unconscious because of his memories. His frowning brows loosened, his expression a little helpless.

Yan Suizhi raised his chin: “Go ahead, you have no expression on your face, you are actually very surprised, then?”

For a moment, Gu Yan seemed to want to be mean or do something to block someone’s mouth, but he finally Continue saying, “I thought I had met someone with a completely identical philosophy, and I happened to have some knowledge of you before that, so I was very happy. But then, when I thought about this passage, I found that you In fact, it just avoided the contradiction.”

Because Yan Suizhi was talking about advice to those young students, in fact, he still didn’t really answer the girl’s question, let alone talk about his own thoughts.

Yan Suizhi thought for a while and said, “That question is actually very difficult. Some people avoid answering it from the very beginning and avoid asking for trouble. Some people have been entangled in it for decades and have no answer. At your age, what I say can easily become some kind of guidance. The answer I give is likely to become your thinking limit for decades to come.”

“Well.”

Gu Yan nodded.

Of course he knew this kind of consideration, even if Yan Suizhi didn’t say it.

But at that time, he didn’t think about it, only subconsciously felt that Yan Suizhi’s words touched him.

Until he came across that old case.

The suspect, the vice president of a once-famous hospital, was involved in a medical homicide. Speaking of which, the situation at that time was a bit similar to this Shaking Weng case. The suspect’s attitude was disgusting, and public opinion was almost one-sided.

However, Yan Suizhi’s original defense also proved that there were indeed loopholes in the prosecution’s evidence.

If everyone’s experience and intuition, including the existing evidence, even the suspect’s reaction can show that he is really guilty, the most satisfying way is to let him face the crime, but there are still some gaps.

What should I do?

When he first came into contact with that old case, what caused Gu Yan’s attitude to change and fell into silence was not simply a disagreement of ideas. It was the contradictions and conflicts within his own inherent ideas that made him a little overwhelmed.

The character left to him by his military parents was the most simple and pure morality and justice. If he followed this, he hoped that the suspect would be thrown into prison without any wiggle room.

But the justice of the court, taught by the judge’s grandfather by words and deeds, made him very concerned about the perfection of the evidence chain.

There is also the presumption of innocence, which must never be discarded.

“During that time, it was not so much an analysis of old cases …

I was constantly making assumptions and arguments, if I received that case, would I make the same choice as you, and that choice could convince me Myself, fits all my inherent concepts.” Gu Yan said.

In fact, he spent a lot of energy during that time, and the analysis he finally made was almost able to convince himself, and even in the process of analyzing that case, he himself had undergone unprecedented tempering changes.

As a result, at the closing stage, I happened to meet Yan Suizhi’s birthday party.

He asked Yan Suizhi that question, but he just wanted to confirm it again. But Yan Suizhi said that he would not think about the original intention at all.

“I happened to be stuck in a bottleneck at that time, or…a bit of a bull’s-eye?” Gu Yan said, “After listening to your answer, I felt that I was stupid for spending time analyzing and tossing before.”

Look, you tried hard to explain and argue. For so long, in fact, the other party didn’t think about this at all.

At that time, he just realized that he had some absurd thoughts about Yan Suizhi, and he took every word of him very seriously.

Yan Suizhi thought of Gu Yan’s previous answer, nodded clearly, and his expression changed slightly: “So after graduation, you have some not-so-serious thoughts, and you are completely mad at me, and there is no news? ”

Gu Yan: “…”

“But…” Yan Suizhi suddenly smiled again, “I’m very happy.”

“Why are you happy?” Gu Yan looked at him.

“Because you are by no means the kind of person who distorts ideas and blindly meets reality for the sake of peace of mind.” Yan Suizhi said, “My student, I still know this.”

In fact, in the next ten years, Gu Yan, who has been polished to become more and more calm and mature, is actually thankful for the old case. If it weren’t for the argument and analysis that was almost self-torture, it would probably have taken him longer to give himself an answer.

Yan Suizhi looked at Gu Yan with a bright smile in his eyes.

This is a student he once admired very much. After so many years of hard work, he is still strong in heart and pure in integrity.

It’s normal to be likable.

But Professor Yan Da is a slob. After listening to this, he couldn’t help but tease Gu Yan, “What about now?”

Gu Yan: “Huh?”

“Do you think it fits my philosophy now?” Yan Sui Zhihao asked in a leisurely manner, “You answer well.”

“…”

What does it mean to answer well?

“What if it doesn’t fit?” Gu Yan’s eyes moved, and he asked back.

Professor Yan Da said with a smile: “That’s not good, I might water the flowers and plants in your courtyard to death first, and then go and see if anyone wants to develop a close relationship with me. After all, disagreement is a big deal. ”

…”

Ten years ago, when some people were so half-truth, Gu Yan would slam the door and run away.

But now it’s different, this is his office, he doesn’t have to run. He couldn’t bear to drive some people out.

The only way is to seal it up.

So five minutes later, when Miss Fitz knocked on the door with the newly arrived entrusted payment, Professor Yan Da, who owed her money, was being pushed against the door, and there was no room for a response.

He pressed his thumb against Gu Yan’s beautiful jaw, separated it slightly, and squinted and said in a low voice, “Tell me, if it is found out later, how will you explain it? Huh? The office is for you to do it. When it comes to business, you should clean up the activities that disrespect the teacher.”
