Yan Suizhi picked and tried all the people mentioned by Master Qiao, and found that this Mr. Jim Bench really paid attention to everything and photographed everything.
Although the focus of his photos is blurred, there are always more people and things in one picture than others.
Those cases from many years ago, when they hit a bottleneck and made no progress, what they lacked most was this kind of thing that could restore the trivial details at that time.
"Mr. Benqi." Yan Suizhi asked, "Do you mind sharing the old photos?"
Ben Qi subconsciously replied: "If I mind."
After replying, he heard the other party laugh, and then another voice faintly came into his ears, and the man asked in a low voice, "What are you laughing at?"
Hold.
Ben Qi's lips twitched, and an exclamation word popped out silently.
He was allergic to the sound and wanted to hug the camera tightly when he heard it.
"That lawyer Gu is next to you?" Ben Qi asked.
"right."
Ben Qi had a shadow on Gu Yan, "Let's talk about it later, I'll call you when he's gone."
"Then you don't have to dial. He's always here."
Gu Yan: "???"
Ben Qi: "???"
Yan Suizhi said it casually, but vaguely heard Jim Bunch mutter in a low voice, "What's the relationship between the two of you? It's not really like what the rumors say..."
"Rumours?" Yan Suizhi raised his eyebrows and asked, "What rumors?"
In the ear buckle, Bunqi did not answer immediately, as if he was considering something.
"I suggest you speak directly." Yan Suizhi said calmly.
"It's nothing..." Ben Qi may have really planted a psychological shadow on the two of them. Hearing Yan Suizhi say this, he subconsciously opened his mouth and said, "Just a while ago, a friend of mine received some materials and said—"
With a little bit of intentional meaning, he sluggishly said, "It is said that the young and promising Attorney Gu of Southern Cross Law Firm has a somewhat unclear relationship with his intern."
"Oh? Is that so?" The smile on Yan Suizhi's face converged, but his voice couldn't be heard. "So exciting?"
Bench: "… "
The intern's reaction was too disrespectful.
Failing to achieve the expected effect, Ben Qi was a little unwilling, and he simply poured out: "Say that you, lawyer Gu, took advantage of the status of the instructor to unspoken rules for your intern. If I understand correctly, the intern here. It's you."
He had hoped that the intern would panic a little, even if he was silent for a few seconds and stuttered.
Unexpectedly, the other party chuckled lightly and said, "Then it seems that I got a big deal."
"..." Bench: "Why do you intern do this?"
The other party was very calm, "It's always been like this, what's the problem?"
Ben Qi said: "No problem, of course there is no problem now. But the material says that there are noses and eyes."
"Why do you have a nose and eyes, so let's hear it?"
Ben Qi: "I heard that Lawyer Gu never accepted interns before, but you made an exception. This is one. Interns usually don't get the chance to go to court, and they are still running errands for three months and five months. It makes a big difference. You went to court with lawyer Gu in the first case. This is the second case. There is also the case of Tianqin Star. If an intern behaves like you, how many small stoves does the instructor have to open?"
Speaking of these, Ben Qi said more and more, and said with the attitude of someone who has come over: "You don't do this, you don't know what it means to spread the rumors. Whether it's true or not, if you can tell a reason, there will be people. Letter. Some people will think: Yes, it is indeed abnormal, it is so, no wonder.”
He said again: "How old are you, it's normal to have never felt the power of rumors and rumors."
"I happen to know something." The intern paused, then said, "Apart from you and your friends, who else has heard of it?"
Ben Qi also wanted to sell a piece of the puzzle and let the other party hurry up, so that he could do something. But the other party didn't know what it was, and he didn't take the bait at all, as if he was sure that the word had not been spread.
He had to say: "There are not many at the moment, just a few small-scale chats between friends."
This small scope is really small, because the people who got the materials are not stupid enough to send these things to their peers in advance, and people like Ben Qi who stay in the humble small net are fine, after all, they can't find anything. If the waves come, you won't be able to grab any heat.
But anyone with a little influence is impossible to know.
"The person who provides the material should have a plan of their own, and clearly said not to go out immediately." Bunqi said, "It's quite an idea, the topic of infection has been hot recently, and no one can surpass it. It's been a few days, and it hasn't reached the top. By the way... You're not even curious about who provided the material?"
"If you really knew, would you go around in such a circle?" the intern said.
"… "
Benchy feels so suffocated dealing with lawyers...
Interns also count.
"However, Mr. Benqi, I'd like to ask you to do me a favor." The intern knew the truth of "slap a jujube with a slap in the face", and became polite as soon as he got angry.
Ben Qi was so full of anger that it leaked out, a little unable to hold him: "Speak."
"Before that friend of yours is instructed to break things out, please let me know," said the intern. "It shouldn't be too difficult for Mr. Bench."
He uses affirmative sentences and smiles when he speaks. This way of speaking is too easy to give psychological hints, so that Benqi can't say the word "no", as if saying "no" means that It seems that he has no ability to get news to help.
This kind of confession is something that Jim Bench can do
But he didn't want to agree so easily, so he said, "It's really not difficult, but what benefits can I get?"
The intern said, "A big news?"
Ben Qi sneered in his heart, "I think you may not understand what big news is, kid. Besides, do you know that I work at the cellular network? The cellular network, even an intern who stands up and says that the unspoken rules of lawyer Gu Do you know what it takes for a website that doesn't get much attention to become big news?"
"What kind of, for example?"
"Heh." Ben Qi sneered, not knowing whether it was self-deprecating or sarcastic. What's even more ironic is that he couldn't think of any news that could save the frozen cellular network for a while, and he couldn't even compile it. His eyes swept over to Hersey, who suddenly remembered the bombing that the little assistant was talking about every day, and said a few whimsical: "Who knows, for example, the former dean of Metz University cheated the corpse from the tomb? For example What shocking consortium fell? For example, the interstellar pirates got countless antimatter bombs and threw one at us?"
"That's it." The intern actually thought about it for a while and said, "Okay."
Bench: "… "
Do shit! I'll light a fire for you, and you're really going to the sky.
He said angrily: "Oh-then I'll wait for your big-news-news. If you can't find it, remember to tell your lawyer Gu that he owes me a favor."
The first half is pure sarcasm, the second half is true.
"For the sake of big news, would you mind sharing the old photos?"
Bench: "… "
Well, the unfortunate intern couldn't hear the sarcasm at all.
He rolled his eyes and smashed the jar: "I don't mind, which ones do you want? What year? I'll go upstairs to pack and send it to you later."
"all."
"… "
Benchie choked on a sip of beer.
In the garden restaurant, the lazy music is melodious.
Yan Suizhi cut off the communication and rubbed his fingers against the slender legs of the wine glass.
When he closed his eyes and nodded, the outline of his facial features would show a warm luster under the restaurant lights, and with the gentle smile that had not been folded at the corners of his mouth, the whole person would appear very gentle. Gentle enough... no one could tell that he was in a bad mood.
But he was really unhappy.
Because someone has bad intentions towards Gu Yan.
Snapped-
The desktop suddenly rang twice.
Yan Suizhi came back to his senses and found that Gu Yan got up at some point and was standing beside him with his eyes down, two slender fingers casually resting on the edge of the table.
Obviously, the two knocks just now were the ones he knocked to attract Yan Suizhi's attention.
"Recovered?"
Yan Suizhi glanced at the dinner plate: "Have you finished eating? Are you going back to your room now?"
"No." Gu Yan rubbed his thumb, "Dip some sweet wine, go wash your hands."
As he spoke, he put his hand back into his trousers pocket, bent over and pecked on Yan Suizhi's lips, and said in a low voice, "By the way, make a bet."
"Who set the wager for this?" Yan Suizhi asked.
Gu Yan: "I've decided."
"It's only half." He pecked Yan Suizhi's lips again, until he saw that the smile on the corner of Yan Suizhi's mouth really came alive, and then said, "Why were you unhappy just now?"
"I was forgotten by you." Professor Yan Da took it easy and threw the blame.
Gu Yan: "..."
…
In the evening, the storm finally had a stance that it was about to rest, and the Hardin Garden Hotel and the police station had no new reason to keep people, and the guests left one after another while the rain eased. The sheriff and police officers who stayed at the hotel stood in darkness, watching everyone leave.
Yan Suizhi glanced in the rear-view mirror. Sheriff Xiao's gaze was directed towards the luxury cars of Manson and Qiao, whether it was meaningful or boring.
Because of her sister Eunice's request, Qiao did not return to Tianqin Star this time, but went to the hotel to meet her sister quietly, take a look at the situation of the old fox secretly, and then find a place to stay nearby.
For some unknown reason, the Manson Brothers did not return to the main headquarters, but also stayed in Decama.
After the storm, the weather did not become as sunny as usual, it was still gloomy, as if it had contained too much rain and had not finished falling.
On the shuttle back to the residence, Yan Suizhi received a photo from Jim Bench.
Looking at the staggering number, he couldn't help but say, "Thanks to modern technology, otherwise these photos would have taken me in for the rest of my life."
That night, he and Gu Yan were leaning on the sofa in the living room, each with a pair of goggles, and they finished nearly half of the reading.
