First-Class Lawyer - Chapter 172

[Chapter 170 Bullfinch (6)]
They weren’t pretending to be a couple at first. They didn’t need to act, and they became more intimate after kissing for a while.
When the shuttle was speeding out of the eastern suburbs, Yan Suizhi loosened Gu Yan’s collar and leaned back into the driver’s seat.
He unbuttoned a shirt and lowered the temperature in the car, and the slightly red neck slowly faded.
The rear-view mirror was empty, and the apparently wrong cars were gone.
It was the first time for lawyer Gu to have such a sophisticated experience in dumping a car, so he had nothing to say.
Although there were no suspicious vehicles in the field of vision, Yan Suizhi switched the driving mode to manual just in case.
He folded the cuff of his shirt over his forearm, held the steering wheel in a big circle, and turned straight into an elevated line.
Once he got to the car, he became calm again.
The swift speed and his calm face formed a very strong contrast.
After changing several roads one after another, and confirming that no cars would be able to keep up, Professor Yan switched back to the automatic mode unhurriedly, and said without raising his head, “I won’t let you sit in the passenger seat next time. Driving.”
Gu Yan’s eyes moved, “The reason?”
“The current beauty is preventing me from concentrating.” Yan Suizhi said.
Gu Yan: “???”
Attorney Gu’s first reaction was to look at the smartphone screen.
Yan Suizhi was stunned for a moment and asked, “What?”
“Let me see if I have cut off the communication with Qiao.” Gu Yan said.
Yan Suizhi: “…You haven’t hung up?”
“Just to confirm.” Gu Yan raised his eyes and asked him, “What if it wasn’t cut off?”
Professor Yan Da touched his cheek and said calmly, “…I It doesn’t matter, if you really forget to hang up, you may need to console the little fool even more.”
Gu Yan raised his eyebrows.
Although there was no danger, but lawyer Gu’s precious Fei Shuo was messed up after all.
The first thing they did when they returned to Fawang District was to enter a car wash.
The car wash owner and Gu Yan were acquaintances, so he exclaimed: “My God! This is your car? I don’t believe it if you kill me. You still spoil your car for such a day? You drink too much to find a way?”
The one who really messed up was buying water from a vending machine not far away. Lawyer Gu silently took the pot down and explained to the boss: “I went to the mountain road on a business trip.”
“Oh, what I said!” The boss’ car washman shouted, and the conveyor belt took Gu Yan’s car into the wash shop, “It just happened to be rainy and rainy recently, and a lot of mud fell down. I drove a mountain road that day, and the autopilot system didn’t know whether it was water or not. Why, you look like a mentally retarded person who doesn’t know how to walk around the mud, so you bumped me back all the way, it’s like I’ve been riding a horse for two hours, and my butt hurts when I walk today.”
Gu Yan: “…”
Yan Suizhi leaned on the Next to the vending machine, he smiled and looked here.
He found that he liked watching Gu Yan get along with all kinds of friends. Obviously, the change in Gu Yan’s expression was not obvious, but Yan Suizhi could see various psychological activities from it, which was more interesting than anything.
After the boss complained to Gu Yan about the mountain road, the rain and his sore butt, he was recruited by another employee. He didn’t know what he was talking about.
Gu Yan turned his head and saw Yan Suizhi holding two bottles of water with his eyes bent.
“Watching a play?” Gu Yan walked over, and while no one was paying attention, he leaned on the vending machine’s window and lowered his head to kiss Yan Suiyi.
“How can our teacher Gu look good in the play.”
Yan Suizhi raised his chin at the boss in the distance and said, “This boss is very lively.”
Gu Yan: “…”
The bearded, muscular car wash owner, if he knew that he was given the adjective “lively”, he didn’t know what his expression would be.
“I found out that you are a frozen gourd, and the friends you have made are very good at talking. When the boss opened his mouth just now, I seemed to see Qiao Xiaozhu No. 2.” Yan Suizhi said.
Gu Yan was silent.
It’s a frozen gourd again, and it’s a little fool. In just a few words, being able to attack two people personally is a skill.
He thought for a while and replied, “By your words, make another friend like a frozen gourd and practice Zen face-to-face?”
I don’t know what Professor Yan Da imagined, but he put on Gu Yan’s shoulder and laughed for a long time.
The two were chatting and waiting for the car, and the boss came back again.
“The car washes very quickly. It won’t take long for you to be free here, and there are snacks there. I’ll go home.” The boss complained jokingly, “My love, I didn’t run into a shuttle when I went out to play a while ago. The accident has been blocked on the track for many days, and it’s a bit of a jet lag when I come back, so I’m resting at home, and I’ll go get her something to eat.”
Yan Suizhi was stunned when he heard the words, “A shuttle accident?”
“Yes, didn’t you report it before?” the boss said. “It’s just that the space has been occupied by infection treatment centers recently, and since the accident has been resolved, no one has mentioned it.”
“I know about the accident . , has the shuttle arrived at the port?” Yan Suizhi asked.
“Yes, did you just arrive yesterday morning, or did you come the day before yesterday?” The boss knocked on the forehead, “I was disturbed by my lover, and I’m a little confused about the time. In short, it won’t be long before we arrive in Hong Kong.” The
boss greeted , then left in a hurry, leaving the car wash to his clerks for the time being.
Yan Suizhi and Gu Yan looked at each other.
As the boss said, there are too many things to do these two days, and they are a little confused about the time.
None of them bothered to read news reports on the web, and they didn’t even know anything about the arrival of the shuttle in Hong Kong.
“Have you sent messages to the landlord these two days?” Gu Yan asked.
Yan Suizhi: “Unfortunately, it was posted the day before yesterday, but it hasn’t been posted from yesterday to today.”
But also, there is no news from the landlord, which makes it easy to worry –
will there be any danger?
Or…the idea has changed?
Yan Suizhi considered for a moment, then called up Mervyn Bai’s communication number and dialed him.
When I was stuck on the accident track before, no matter how I dialed this number, it was a signal error. It only rang three times now, and it was connected.
“Hello?” Mervyn Bai’s voice sounded.
For a moment, Yan Suizhi felt that the voice was a bit long gone.
“Have you returned to Decama?” the
landlord said, “Yes, just arrived yesterday morning. Did you know that when the shuttle was connected, my smartphone database was about to explode, and hundreds of messages flooded in at the same time. Come on, my fingers have been numb all morning.”
His tone was very natural, no different from before, and he couldn’t hear any problems for a while.
Yan Suizhi glanced at Gu Yan and said, “It’s good to land safely. It’s not peaceful recently. I’m a little worried that I didn’t receive your message.”
“Did I not send you a message?” Then he said , “There was too much information at that time, did I forget it?”
Yan Suizhi raised his eyebrows, “I can force you to believe me.
” Take a rest for a few days, and reverse the jet lag. I heard your tongue is a bit big now, so you won’t be asleep, right?” The
landlord said, “You installed a monitor in my house? Do you know this?”
“You really didn’t sleep? ”
“Well, packing up.” The landlord smiled and asked again, “Can the two lawyers have time now?”
“You can,” Yan Suizhi said.
“Then please help me.”
“Okay.”
Yan Suizhi responded, and just as he was about to cut off the communication, the landlord added, “Don’t rush to hang up, it’s not the house that is going to be rented to you. I’ll give you the address later. Send it to you, don’t go wrong.”
After hanging up the communication, Yan Suizhi showed some doubts on his face.
“What’s wrong?” Gu Yan asked.
“The landlord is a little strange.” Yan Suizhi said.
“For example?”
“I can’t tell.” Yan Suizhi thought for a while, then frowned and said, “But I always think something happened to him.”
After a while, Yan Suizhi’s smartphone received a message.
The source shows a number not commonly used by Mervyn White.
– No. 115 Yanglin Avenue, Fontaine District, enter through the side door, the password is a picture, I will send you later.
This is followed by a charcoal sketch from life.
Gu Yan’s car was quickly washed, and returned to the usual low-key and calm matte black, with no mud stars in sight.
They traversed the entire Fawang District and spent nearly two hours finding the so-called Yanglin Avenue on a beach in the Fontaine District.
The seaside is not a suitable place to play and watch, there are too many rocks, obstructing the line of sight, and the scenery is unremarkable. The houses here look old, the apartments, the shops, and the facades are faded.
On the side close to the sea, there is also a lot of old salt frost, which exudes a salty smell, which is not so wonderful.
The entire Yanglin Avenue was crowded, and because of the undulating terrain, the heights of the houses were very messy, and it was difficult to figure out which building was numbered. What’s worse is that if you take two laps in it, you will be dizzy, because every lane is so similar.
– You tricked me into walking the maze?
Yan Suizhi did not dial the communication this time, but sent a message to the unknown number.
The other party quickly replied:
– I have seen you. You turn left now, go in through the alley at hand, walk to the second-to-last building, turn to the right, count four buildings up the alley, and then look up.
Yan Suizhi dragged Gu Yan through the maze according to the description in the message.
“The fourth building…” He counted the places one by one, then stopped and glanced up.
On the second floor of a small building on the left, a figure wearing a mask waved at him.
One of Yan Sui saw that he was wearing a mask, and subconsciously became cautious so as not to cause trouble for the other party.
He looked around and made sure that no one was following, and then found the legendary small door on one side.
He pulled out the charcoal sketch and scanned it before the code.
There was a soft click from the inside of the heavy door, and a crack was slowly opened.
After Yan Suizhi closed the door, he turned around and was shocked by the scene on the first floor of the small building. There are old or working optical brains, instruments, and countless imitation pages hanging in the air everywhere. There is a kind of menacing momentum that comes from overwhelming mountains and seas.
The sound of rustling footsteps came downstairs.
Yan Suizhi rushed downstairs to Mervyn Bai and said, “Are you going to do post
-disaster reconstruction?” Mervyn Bai let out a “tsk” and said angrily, “Why do you speak so badly as a young man?”
Yan Suizhi said modestly: “It’s okay, I won the prize.”
Mervyn Bai: “…”
He scanned the room and asked, “This is your house?”
“Old residence.” Mervyn Bai thought for a while and said, “It’s not too old. But I don’t live here myself. It’s only used to put some materials here.”
The pages in the room, even if they are virtual and foldable, can be seen to be piled up like a mountain.
To use “some” to describe it is really too modest.
Gu Yan obeyed the master’s wishes and put on the mask. The corner of his vision was full of pages that were half-organized, and he could see that most of those pages were documents, signed agreements, and a large number of research drafts with diagrams and pages of data.
He stretched out his hand and was able to pull the next page to see it clearly, but following the principle of see no evil, before the landlord opened his mouth, he maintained a state of being polite and not looking sideways.
“What do you mean by asking us to help?” Yan Suizhi asked.
Mervyn Bai circled his fingers, “There’s too much information, help me sort it out.”
“How to sort it out?”
“The research manuscripts are put together, regardless of the order.” Mervyn Bai explained briefly, “All other types of documents are scanned together. The key point is some documents with signatures. If you see them, please help me receive them.
”
Words like Iris Medical Pharmacy Research Center.
He is not unfamiliar with this name. When investigating the truth about his parents’ genetic surgery, he always came across this research center on some information.
“This is where you worked back then?”
Since you helped organize it, it was impossible to turn a blind eye to the contents of those research papers. Yan Suizhi roughly turned a few pages and asked Mervyn Bai, “That’s what you studied at the beginning?”
“Yes.” Mervyn Bai nodded, “but it’s only part of it. After I resigned, on the one hand, I didn’t want to have anything to do with them, and on the other hand, I felt that some things might be useful in the future. This kind of ambivalence led me to finally Only a part of the materials that were handled are kept.”
Although he said that they are together, don’t care about the order. However, when Yan Suizhi arranged it, it was still arranged according to the page number, and so did Gu Yan.
This makes them have to look at the content of the manuscript a few more times.
Soon, Gu Yan saw something useful in it.
“This gene fragment analysis map…” He handed the page to Yan Suizhi, frowned and said, “Is it the same as yours?” The
landlord heard the words and walked over, made a low “ah”, and drew it away. After reading the page carefully for a while, “This is the core fragment of the early research results…”
He was silent for a moment, then said to Yan Suizhi, “Do you have any remnants of this fragment in your body?”
Yan Suizhi nodded, “Lin Yuan Been helping me analyze this clip, and it caused me to have two conflicting gene-modification effects, which caused some… not so comfortable reactions. We were trying to clear it, just didn’t find a way to do it.
” Affected, the landlord recalled something.
At the time, the animals in the laboratory made crazy and shrill screams, and some of them looked like “addicts”, with red eyes, withered, curled up on the ground, rolling and twitching, scratching their paws on the safety glass, making a sour sound .
Most of those kinds of things are caused by this original research result.
Of course, in those years, they were called the product of experimental failure. But until Mervyn Bai resigned and left, he did not see a few successful products.
The difference is nothing more than the length of the incubation period.
Some can maintain a stable inert state for a long period of time, without seeing any abnormality, and even if there is a genetic problem at one time. But some may be born unlucky, and they will develop symptoms in a short period of time, and each death will be worse than each other.
“Why are there residues in your body?” Mervyn Bai asked again.
Yan Suizhi was stunned for a moment, “Why? Shouldn’t there be?” The
landlord was silent for a moment, then said, “How can I say… This is actually my research project for a long time back then. When I received the project, this The purpose of the research is still normal, at least the part I have been exposed to is normal – that is to artificially create a perfect universal gene segment to replace the patient’s problem gene, so that it will not be found during the operation. I have a headache because of the source of genes.”
“But this kind of research is like building a nest, one piece here, one piece there, when you are obsessed with parts, it is difficult to find out whether the general direction deviates. When I found out that the trend of the research project was not what I imagined When it’s different, it’s too late. In fact, it can’t be called too late. The original intention of the Manson Brothers has never changed, but we were too stupid to believe their carefully packaged rhetoric.”
“But… the follow-up development is not the same. Under our control, the foundation is still there. We made settings when we established the research foundation, and this gene segment can be completely removed or completely covered. In this way, in case the replacement effect is not satisfactory, there are still There is room for repentance.” The
landlord frowned and said, “This kind of thing remains… It’s really beyond my expectations.”
When he was explaining, Yan Suizhi just turned to the page of follow-up reactions and complications , in which words such as “mental disorder” and “drug addiction” made him frown slightly.
He recovered his expression before Gu Yan noticed this, and then quietly placed the page at the bottom of the stack of documents.
“Then… is there a possibility of complete removal?” Yan Suizhi asked.
The landlord said, “Let me answer this out of thin air, I can’t give a precise answer. So, didn’t you say that Lin Yuan is doing analysis? I’ll give him these original manuscripts later to see if I can find some applicable methods. ”
That’s really good.” Yan Suizhi said, “Actually, it’s not me that is urgent. There are many people who are waiting for such a result to continue their lives? With your help, Lin Yuan should get some breakthroughs, right?” .”
Mervyn Bai Yao waved his hand, “Don’t give me ecstasy soup, flattery is not good for me. I have resigned for more than 20 years, and I don’t remember as much as a dog. At most, based on these research manuscripts, I can help Do a little favor.”
In this small building, there are countless manuscripts of this kind, each of which seems to carry a lot of information.
It is a pity that there are too many professional contents, which cannot be digested by the two barristers in a short time. Otherwise, they can just switch jobs.
Even if Lin Yuan came over, it would be impossible to understand all the research content in this half-day and one-day effort. After all, this was Mervyn Bai’s accumulated achievements over the years.
According to the request of the landlord Mervyn Bai, they gathered all the manuscripts together, and did not read more about those miscellaneous documents.
What once again attracted the attention of the two lawyers were some signed documents in the house.
“Surgery agreement?” Yan Suizhi glanced at the general content, “Is this an agreement you signed with the hospital?”
Mervyn Bai nodded, “Yes, at that time, the success rate of genetic surgery was very low, and every operation was performed. Everyone needs to sign a liability agreement with the hospital. People with a bit of common sense understand this kind of thing, but many people may not be aware of it. As the supporter of technology and research results, we also need to sign an agreement with the hospital. ”
“Sign for every operation?” Yan Suizhi asked.
“Yes.” Mervyn Bai said, “The bigger the risk, the more likely we will sign with us, so that we can share part of the responsibility. For example, today’s operation will use our result A, so it must be the result A. Sign an agreement, use B, then add the item B, in short, all will be listed. It means that we use your technology, if something goes wrong, you can’t run.”
Yan Suizhi nodded, Looking at the agreement was slightly ecstatic.
This actually gave him an idea.
“Have you signed such an agreement when my parents and I had surgery?” Yan Suizhi asked.
Mervyn Bai was always very apologetic when he mentioned this. He lowered his eyes and said softly, “Yeah, I signed it, and I signed it in the name of the institute.”
“Is that agreement still in place?” Yan Suizhi asked. .
“I’m not sure, I have to look for it, what’s the matter?”
Yan Suizhi said, “Mr. Eves has collected some large and small evidence over the years, and the information I have found over the years can also provide some scattered supplements. But There are still a few key pieces of evidence missing. One of them is the relationship between the Manson Brothers and this problem gene.”
He pointed to himself, “I have this gene residue in my body, which is a living proof. If the original If the agreement is still there, it can prove that this gene fragment of mine is the remnant of the original operation, and the technical support of the operation was your institute. I think… I will find your institute and the Manson Brothers again. The evidence of the connection between them is not too difficult, is it?”
In this way, the line is connected.
The landlord was stunned for a moment and slapped his forehead: “Yes! That’s right! This chain of evidence is linked! Come on! Hurry up, find that agreement.”
If it is a separate database, find this kind of agreement It’s not hard to come by, just search with keywords.
It’s a pity that when dear Mr. Mervyn Bai resigned, he hated and disgusted these piles of old and old documents, so he didn’t bother to sort them out at all, so that these countless documents were stored in countless archives. Optical brain, storage disk, private disk, encrypted disk, physical database.
There are also different passwords for each database.
So that any one-click search does not work, you have to decode one by one and then search in a small range.
Mervyn Bai rubbed his neck and beat his waist, scolding: “I was really a beast back then. I hated myself so much that I made such trouble…”
Until the sky was blue and dark, and the Yanglin Avenue on the seaside was full of stars. After the lights were turned on, they were only halfway through sorting and rummaging.
But it’s always a good mood to have such a hope out there.
At around 8 o’clock in the night, Gu Yan received a communication from Tianqin Star. Qiao said straight to the point: “I’ve already arrived, and I’m at the hotel now. It’s less than a kilometer away from the detention center. But it’s late at night
in Tianqin.
In the past, I reminded, “I don’t know if there will be any action from the Manson Brothers. After all, you stayed at the villa hotel for one night. Maybe someone will send a letter to let them realize that your relationship with Mr. Eves has recovered. It ‘s over.”
As soon as Master Qiao heard this, he said in an unwavering tone: “President, have you seen today’s web news feed?”
Yan Suiyi was stunned: “No, what’s wrong?”
Qiao Continue to say in this numb tone: “If you read it, you will never make such a guess. Wait a moment, I will send it to you, and you will enjoy it.”
Ding –
Master Qiao’s fingering is fast, Sent some news screenshots.
Yan Suizhi opened his eyes and swept down with Gu Yan, and finally couldn’t help laughing.
“The second ancestor of the Ivy Group went crazy in the early morning, slammed the door, smashed the car, and walked away.” Qiao was very collapsed, “The me in this report may not be me, it’s a gun battle, do I have some kind of mania? I went crazy early in the morning? I have this Dean, say it!”
Yan Suizhi: “…”
“Gu Yan, say it!”
Gu Yan: “…”
The silence on both sides made this young master particularly hurt.
Fortunately, Gu Yan noticed some important points in time and saved the precarious friendship, “If I remember correctly, Mr. Eves asked the hotel security to clear the scene, and the guards were very strict. Who can take this kind of photo?”
Qiao was stunned . , reacted suddenly.
In that case, there are only two possibilities for this kind of photo to be released. In order to prevent the Manson brothers from questioning the father-son relationship between Joe and the old fox, some businessmen can do anything –
such as their sister selling their younger brother.
Like a father selling his son.
Gone.
After a moment of silence, Joe said angrily: “I’ll hang up first! I’ll go to Ms. Eunice and Mr. Ewes to have a theory.”
“Wait.” Yan Suizhi said.
“What’s the problem?” Joe asked.
Yan Suizhi wanted to say, tell Mr. Ewes for me that the long-awaited evidence may be about to be keyed.
But he thought about it for a moment and said with a smile: “Forget it, it’s fine, I’ll talk about it when there is a real result. After all, I have a crow’s mouth
.
” People finally felt the hunger pangs in hindsight.
The landlord’s stomach let out a loud cry.
“Is there a restaurant nearby?” Yan Suizhi asked.
Gu Yan was about to search, but saw the landlord wave his hand and said, “Don’t look for a restaurant, isn’t this a kitchen?”
Yan Suizhi looked suspiciously at the dark kitchen, “It looks like it was bombed, you sure can Use?” The
landlord said stubbornly, “…Yes.”
He got up and scratched on a certain table, digging out the bag of the convenience store, and while looking for something to eat, he said, “What did I think, I actually want you to be my tenant, but now that I think about it, I can’t live there, or I will lose half of my lifespan.”
Yan Suizhi looked calm.
Lawyer Gu is not very willing to trouble people. Seeing that the landlord is struggling, he suggested again: “Turn left 150 meters from the door and there will be a house.”
The landlord finally straightened up, “Let’s have a meal first, it’s best to finish packing up the things here tonight, otherwise it’s hard to say whether there will be a chance to pack up later.”
Yan Suizhi noticed the meaning behind his words. Meaningful, he frowned and asked, “Have you met someone? Or have you received something?”
Mervyn Bai: “As expected of a lawyer, you’ve received a lot of threatening emails, you can guess it by guessing. ”
When did you receive it? Who sent it? The content?” Gu Yan asked concisely and directly.
Mervyn Bai called out the email, turned it over to them, and said, “I received it when I got off the shuttle. As for when the other party sent it, I don’t know, and it has nothing to do with me. It has nothing to do with me. The person column is blank and has no data. It is a smart phone from the black market, and it can also display a signal or number, but this letter doesn’t even have these, so it’s really troublesome to find it. This also has nothing to do with me. As for the content… He paused, then said, ”
It’s the most old-fashioned threat, warning me not to say things I shouldn’t say, don’t do things I shouldn’t do, and to put it bluntly, don’t try to stand on the opposite side of Manson’s two little beasts, Otherwise, I will only get two kinds of results. Either, I will be killed by Manson’s minions without knowing it, or I will be imprisoned because of some unclear documents.”
Yan Suizhi was stunned, “Cold. Go to jail?”
“It seems that those documents are difficult to explain now. I said that I didn’t know the purpose of the research. Does anyone believe it? But it still has nothing to do with me.”
After saying this, he lowered his eyes and sneered, with a bit of funny sarcasm.
The man who had passed his prime looked a little thin, his silver-white hair was tied at the back of his head, and he had the temperament of a dashing artist, but his blue eyes were never cloudy, like a young man. clear.
“An unseemly funeral, or standing in the dock alone?”
He rethought the threat again, then smiled nonchalantly in the light.
He said: “Fuck threats, I, Mervyn Bai, are the most afraid of threats in my life.”
