First-Class Lawyer

Chapter 146 Casting a Net

"Did I say something wrong?" Ms. Laura was stunned, unable to react for a while.

She looked at Joe, who was choking on the coffee, beating his chest, coughing violently, shaking his hands at her without raising his head, and then giving a trembling thumbs up.

Laura saw that his face was blushing, his neck was thick, and he was almost dying of coughing, so she stopped embarrassing him and turned to look at Gu Yan.

Then she was enlightened and suddenly realized: "Oh."

One sound was not enough, she prolonged her tone again, "Oh—" and said narrowly to Gu Yan, "Aren't you happy when I pinch him? Are you so jealous? Why didn't I see that you are still like this before?" What about one side?"

Gu Yan was about to say something, but when he heard this, he seemed to look at Laura for a while, and finally nodded at her with a slumped face and said, "You're right."

Young Master Qiao is about to cough into consumption.

Professor Yanda's expression changed from blank to very complicated, hesitant to speak, as if he was considering how to speak so that both parties could save some face.

However, it was not enough for this unlucky girl, Laura, to run on Gu Yan, and she shifted her narrow eyes to him.

"..."

Yan Suizhi endured this gaze silently, a little bit dumbfounded.

"It's over, I have a red mark on my face." Laura added desperately.

Yan Suizhi: "..."

Forget it, pull it out and shoot him.

Yan Suizhi withdrew his gaze, and simply didn't say anything, anyway, he was definitely not the one who was going to die in the end.

He touched the side of his face calmly. There was no embarrassment in doing this kind of movement, it was more like a random small movement, exuding a gentle and calm temperament.

Then he picked up the coffee cup in front of him, took a sip silently, and said to Ms. Laura: "I suggest you forget this scene, for your own good."

It's over. It's over.

After finally coughing, Young Master Qiao was paralyzed on the sofa like a dead dog, his chest heaving half-deadly. He glanced at Yan Sui and then at Laura through his half-closed eyes, and then looked away as if stung by a wasp. , said it was too late to make room for Miss Laura in the cemetery.

Yan Suizhi put down the coffee cup, seeing Gu Yan glanced at him, he couldn't help raising his eyebrows and said, "I feel a bit at a loss."

Before the other party could react, he stretched out his hand and pinched Gu Yan's face, then raised the corner of his mouth in satisfaction: "This will balance it."

Gu Yan: "???"

Speaking of losses, is there anyone here who is more at a loss than him?

Miss Laura, who was full of courage, saw this scene and thought she had been fed a big mouthful of dog food, so she panicked, so she gave Yan Sui a thumbs up and said, "It's the first time in my life that I saw someone dare to pinch him, little intern You opened my eyes, warrior."

"..."

A true warrior always ignores himself.

Joe silently covered his eyes, feeling that he really couldn't bear to watch any more.

·

The smartphone buzzed and vibrated suddenly, jolting the paraplegic Master Qiao alive.

He wiped his lips, sat up half dead, and turned on the smartphone screen. The caller was the friend who helped check the entry records.

Master Qiao regained his energy immediately, his gaze changed, he rubbed his face hard twice, and connected: "Hello? Is there a result?"

The other party said: "It's a little bit."

"What do you mean by a little bit?"

The other party said, "Several systems have been developed, some are searched from the back to the front, and some are searched from the front to the back. They use precise screening. First, the screening of Lawyer Ke's accident in the year is completed. I know you are anxiously waiting. Some of the results will be sent to you first, so as not to delay your progress. But—”

Upon hearing this turning point, Joe raised his heart, "But what?"

"I think this screening method will still miss a lot, and there are too many ways to mix a bird in." The friend on the other end of the communication tried to explain a few words, then gave up: "Forget it, look You will understand what I mean when you see the result.”

"I know, as long as there is a result." Joe nodded. "You don't tell me, I also know that there must be many ways to deceive people, but having information is better than having no information. Finding a little bit is a little bit."

"Of course it's best for you to think like this." The other party explained: "In the past few years and the last few years are being screened, and I will send you a part every year after the check, and I won't call you one by one. Now, remember to keep an eye on it and pay attention to check it."

Joe said bluntly, "Okay, I've been watching, thanks."

He spoke calmly, but after hanging up the communication, he took a few deep breaths.

"How to say?" Gu Yan and the others all looked over.

A communication completely diverted from the previous topic, and the focus fell back on the scavenger.

The voice just fell.

Joe's smartphone beeped.

"Here we come." Qiao stared at the interface that popped up, and said, "He said that he first searched the entry and exit records of Ke Jin's accident year, and some things have already been sent to me. I—"

He stared at the interface for a few seconds, exhaled, and clicked Dismantling.

A long row of recorded screenshots and dynamic image files are arranged above the coffee table in turn.

Joe switches the screen to share mode, and the file starts playing automatically in a scrolling fashion.

Records show that at the beginning of January of that year, Decama's consignment note at the port of entry showed that a batch of gray freckles had been brought in, a total of 1, the attributes were meat finch, and the inspection method was screening.The remarks showed that it was consigned by butcher vendor Eddie Watson.

Immediately following this record, however, were precise search results for images.

In the video, 300 edible gray spotted finches are crowded together and locked in a huge birdcage. It seems that the feathers are flying around and are very chaotic.But at one point, the search box pinned down one of the 300 gray freckles.

That one happened to reveal a piece of tail feathers at that moment, and it could be seen from that piece of tail feathers alone that it was a shepherd bird mixed with gray spotted finch.

Everyone's eyes tightened.

As the friend said just now, after reading the records, you can see that it is not easy to find the mutton bird. Just like this video, if there are more birds and more crowded, the mutton bird will be completely covered. , it is difficult to find this paragraph through precise screening.

It can be seen that there must be many missing parts.

After this video, there is another record.

Records show that someone came to pick up the shipment the day after the 300 gray spotted finch entered the port.The person who picked it up was also a meat sparrow vendor named Zhang Wendi.

"No Lee Connor..." Laura said.

"Look later." Yan Suizhi reminded.

Qiao heard the words and immediately turned backwards.

It stands to reason that the shepherd bird has changed its environment, and it is impossible for it to survive for a long time.That is to say, this shepherd bird has come, as long as you don't want it to die in Decama, there will be a corresponding departure record in the near future.

but.

The second record has been several months later, which means that the time it left the port was well concealed and could not be found.

The record a few months later was that in mid-May, a troupe mainly performing animal performances entered the port from Decama.Most of the common gray spotted finch is used in the magic performance of the troupe. After all, it is cheap and available in large quantities.

Once again the shepherd entered the harbor mixed with the gray freckles.

After passing the screening, the entire theater troupe brought it into Planet Decama, and performed in several districts.

Similarly, among the registered members of the troupe, there was still no trace of Connor Lee.

"Have you checked Connor Li's entry and exit records?" Yan Suizhi said, "It is very likely that he has been using other people to bring the shepherd bird in."

Fortunately, the friend Joe asked also thought of the same situation. After these two records, he attached a copy of Lee Connor's entry and exit time.

Unsurprisingly, he had entered and departed the port eight times during that time, and two of them were very close to the consignment time of the Mudingniao, one with a difference of 1 day and the other with a difference of 3 days.

Seeing this result, Joe's face became ugly again.

Guessing is one thing, seeing pictures and texts to confirm the guessing is another thing.

He clenched his fists and almost hit the coffee table.But he caught sight of Ke Jin who was dozing off beside him, and he stopped in time.He cursed several times in a very low voice.

Connor Lee was that scavenger.

This guess is basically correct.

But the most important thing is not this point, but where he went after, who he became, and where he is now, this is the most important thing.

They screened for so long, not to look at the name in these records, but to let this person, who was involved in many lives, deserve what he deserved.

But unfortunately...

The last record of this year was at the end of the year, around December. This time, it was neither an outbound record nor an inbound record. Instead, we found the trail of a mutton bird in the monitoring of the port, and flew a short distance with the mighty flow of people. , resting on top of the metal gate posts of the port.

It is difficult to find out who the shepherd bird is following through this monitoring.

The only good thing is that the friend Joe asked was very efficient.

About an hour later, a new result came out, with a message saying: The system checked from both ends to the middle at the same time, and this is from the last year, from January to now.

Joe clicked on the file full of hope, but found that there were very few things in it, only one record and one image in total.

Just seeing the pitiful amount, Joe leaned back on the sofa with a sigh.

Laura also gave a "tsk", clearly showing her disappointment.

But after opening it, they found a difference.

This time the shepherd bird came into Hong Kong without being mixed with a large number of gray freckles, nor did it do too much concealment, it was just brought in by a person in the name of a pet.

The bearer's name was Marcus Bader.

The video that follows is the moment when Marcus Budd lifts the birdcage and passes through the gate.

After non-destructive zooming in, Marcus Bard's appearance is clear.

It was a man of medium build, with an ordinary appearance and no special memory points. He could be submerged in the crowd in an instant while walking on the road. He was a typical public face.

"I can't remember a face like this three times." Joe frowned and muttered, "Maybe it's on purpose."

In the video, Marcus Bader seems to be in a normal mood, always touching his side face and neck, as if he is not used to it or uncomfortable.However, he took care of the bird's feelings very much. He opened the cage just after the review.

The shepherd bird flapped its wings twice, flew out of the cage, circled him twice, first stopped on his shoulder and rubbed his cheek, as if to say hello to him, and then flew high and far away.

Joe bit his tongue after watching this video, then turned his head and began to use this public face to accurately search for images on the entire network.

It's a pity that in every corner that can be found on the public network, this man named Marcus Bader has a very low sense of existence, and there is no information about him at all.

"Wait a little longer." Joe said, "When my friend provides some more information, I'll ask friends from the media to help me search."

Laura said: "What the media can get is actually limited. At most, they can find out the reports and videos that have been released, and those that have not been released but have been submitted to the higher authorities. There are still many that will not be published. If they don’t plan to post it on the Internet, they won’t be able to find it.”

Qiao said again: "Then let's look for someone from the filing system..."

After he finished speaking, he said helplessly, "But the file system also has limitations."

Gu Yan, on the other hand, suddenly remembered something and looked at Yan Suizhi, "Speaking of the ones that haven't been posted on the Internet...do you remember those two reporters?"

"Ben Qi and Hersey?" Yan Suizhi nodded clearly, "I almost forgot about these two, last time on Lyra, we collected a lot of things from their cameras, try it? "
