Chapter 16 Waves
"Hello, a cup of extra thick American."
Jiang Suhe stood at the front desk and looked at the back of the girl who was busy. He felt very familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it.
"Do you need something else, guest?" The girl handed the prepared coffee to Jiang Suhe, and the face under the cap caught Jiang Suhe's eyes.
"Are you... Lawyer Jiang?" The girl looked at the man standing in front of her in surprise.
"Well, are you?"
"I am Lin Zaixian's sister, Lin Zaien."
Jiang Suhe seemed to remember seeing this girl in court, "Then why are you working here?"
"My second brother and I have long broken apart, and I have given up my father's inheritance."
Jiang Suhe was amazed at the girl's courage. If it were anyone, he would always feel unwilling and regretful to give up such a large amount of money. But in the eyes of this girl, she could not see a trace of passion for money, but instead she was worried.
"Lawyer Jiang nim, I have something to say to you." Lin Zaien hesitated for a long time and said this.
"Okay, go there and sit for a while." Jiang Suhe looked at the empty seat in the corner and said.
"It's for your brother's case, right?" Jiang Suhe put the coffee in his hand on the table.
Lin Zaien pursed her lips and nodded embarrassedly.
"My second brother really didn't kill his elder brother, right?"
"Didn't you hear it all in court?"
"Is the trial result necessarily correct?"
"It depends on what you think." Jiang Suhe raised his eyebrows.
"Lawyer Jiang nim, I have something very important to tell you." Lin Zaien seemed to make up his mind and clenched his fists and looked directly at Jiang Suhe.
Jiang Suhe didn't answer her, he knew what she was going to say next.
"Why not tell the prosecutor?"
"I said it, and he said he had no choice."
Jiang Suhe looked back and saw Wu Xiuzhong lying on the glass to see the situation inside.
"You talk first." Jiang Suhe smiled. The feeling of being kept in the dark made him feel uncomfortable.
"Actually, the voices of my second brother were all made by him."
"Oh?" Jiang Suhe was a little surprised at the development of the matter, "but this evidence is still not enough."
Lin Zaien grabbed the bag in his hand, as if deciding whether to let Jiang Suhe see this thing next.
Jiang Suhe didn't want to trek into this muddy water again. Seeing Lin Zaien hesitated, he already knew about what it was.
Jiang Suhe also knew what Lin Zaien was hesitating. If he handed over what Lin Zaien gave him to Lin Zaixian, then she would not only not be able to help her elder brother, but she would instead be in trouble.
So, Jiang Suhe planned to leave here and stop caring about this matter.
However, when he got up, a weak voice came.
"Lawyer Jiang nim, please help me, please take a look at this thing." Lin Zaien looked at Jiang Suhe who was about to leave helplessly.
Jiang Suhe glanced at the documents in her hand and finally shook his head, "I'm sorry, this case seems to be over in my opinion."
"Live well." Jiang Suhe patted her shoulder and left the cafe without any hesitation, leaving only Lin Zaien sitting in her seat with a blank look on her eyes.
Neither of them noticed a flash of light on Jiang Suhe's coat.
…
"Everything today is for her." Jiang Suhe looked at Wu Xiuzhong with a diligent look on his face.
"So are you ready to help us?"
"No, I refuse."
"I am a lawyer now." Jiang Suhe turned around and left as soon as he finished speaking, leaving Wu Xiuzhong in shock in the wind.
"Sure enough, it still didn't work." Wu Xiuzhong seemed a little discouraged.
After the two separated, the haze in the sky became even more intense, as if it was about to press onto the ground.
…
This case made Jiang Suhe very tired, not only physically but also mentally.
Why is he more confused the closer he is to the target? He himself can't explain it clearly.
After five years of persistence, he once walked through the darkness without distraction. No matter how many people hinder him, he ignored it. But now, he is increasingly yearning for light. Is it because of fatigue? Or is it because of the upright girl next door breaking into his life?
It feels really bad to act against your conscience. But the hatred brought by Pei Suxian's death cannot be eliminated. He cannot let Pei Suxian cry alone in hell.
…
The night is getting deeper and deeper, and the dense dark clouds cannot hold back the downpour. Tonight, a heavy rain washed away the entire Seoul, as if to hide something unknown.
Jiang Suhe suddenly woke up from his dream and looked out the window with heavy rain. He vaguely felt something was going to happen. This premonition was sometimes effective and sometimes not, which made him very confused, "I hope everything is fine."
As if responding to his premonition, Jiang Suhe's cell phone vibrated. Looking at the caller ID with the three words "Wu Xiuzhong", his premonition became even stronger.
"Boom..." Jiang Suhe answered the phone, no one spoke, only the thunder and lightning outside the window shone together.
Both of them were silent, and their thoughts spread quietly.
"senior……"
"Yeah, I'm listening."
"Lin Zaien..."
"Dead."
When Jiang Suhe heard this news, he was extremely shocked. He never thought that the person who sat in front of him a few hours ago would disappear into the world.
"How did you die?" Jiang Suhe's voice trembled.
"It is said to be suicide." Wu Xiuzhong's voice seemed very unconfident.
The passing of a fresh life made Jiang Suhe's heart calm.
However, Lin Zaien's sudden death made Jiang Suhe feel very strange. It is logical that a person with obsession should not commit suicide...
In a trance, he thought of something, and Jiang Suhe's eyes became a little depressed, "I hope this is not the case, otherwise..."
He picked up the car keys and rushed out of the house without even bringing an umbrella.
"Senior?Senior?"
"beep--"
Wu Xiuzhong was a little helpless when he heard the busy voice coming from the phone, not knowing whether he told Jiang Suhe about this matter or not.
…
The mud and water flew all the way.
Outside Lin Zaixian’s private villa.
The doorbell jingled, and outside the door stood a man wet with rain. His hair was pressed on his scalp and his clothes were soaked in rain. But he didn't care and still stubbornly rang the doorbell.
Perhaps his noise woke up next door, and an old man in his seventies came out next door. The old man slowly opened the umbrella and covered his head.
Feeling the rain disappearing, the man turned around and unexpectedly saw an old man dressed in thin clothes.
"Old man, where did the person who lives here go? Have you seen him?"
"You're talking about Kobayashi."
"He, when it was raining heavily, he took his luggage out. It seemed that he was going to catch a plane, in a hurry."
"Lin Zaixian, it's you." The man raised his head, and Jiang Suhe was rushing to come.
Jiang Suhe is very regretful now, but he is also puzzled. How did Lin Zaixian know that Lin Zaien has evidence that is unfavorable to him?
The old man dusted off the rain on Jiang Suhe's body and suddenly saw a light spot passing by in a flash. The old man took off a button from Jiang Suhe's collar in confusion, put it on his palm, and watched it flashing lightly and darkly.
Jiang Suhe seemed to have seen this little thing somewhere, and he took the buttons out of the old man's hand.
"Ha, Lin Zaixian."
"I know how you noticed something was wrong."
"How dare you put the eavesdropping device on me?" Jiang Suhe's eyes were as sharp as a raging one.
