Huo Shaoheng was standing before the door to the bathroohing He shook his head in resignation; deep down, however, he was happy to kno ht sainst the wall He waited patiently for her to cohed so hard she doubled over and had to gasp for air She supported herself on the sink for a long moment as she waited for the euphoria to pass Once her nerves had steadied, she exited the bathroo for her outside, and almost died of ehing like aatte neither admitted nor denied it Instead, he explained to her in a low voice, “…Bai Yueran is close with the people in the al Department After careful consideration, we decided that the best way to avoid suspicion was to have soal Department represent the plaintiff in court And that’s ant you to take on both cases, because they’re essentially one and the same It’ll make communication a lot easier if we have you on both cases”

Gu Nianzhi finally realized he had been one step ahead of her the whole ti, “Don’t worry I won’t let you down, not when you have so much faith in me!”

“Just do your best It doesn’t matter if you win or lose—you will always be nu as he patted her on the shoulder Gu Nianzhi’s legs immediately turned to jelly

…

Now that she had Huo Shaoheng’s encourageet started

She returned to her room with her laptop—which now had an entire hard drive’s worth of confidential docu all the evidence at hand

She was particularly interested in Medical Examiner Zhu’s post’s appraisal of all the physical evidence, and Dan Bohan’s assess’s mental health She typed up 2MB’s worth of notes just for those docu herself with the evidence, she also wrote several drafts for her opening stateuments to be presented in court, and made sure she knew all the correct terin in three days She did not have a lot of time to prepare

Gu Nianzhi wished she did not have to spend ti If it were up to her, she would rather crawl inside her computer and stay there, to better absorb all the infor before her computer in her pajamas, too absorbed in her work to even brush her unkempt hair The older woence, and decided to help out by personally cooking nutritious ht the soup and food to Gu Nianzhi every day and sat with her while she ate

Even then, Gu Nianzhi did not waste a second of the ti about the case in-between , I want to hear your opinion on this—if it turns out that Bai Jinyi killed Luo Xinxue, why did she wait six years after Huo Guanyuan’s death to do it? I can understand killing Luo Xinxue while Huo Guanyuan was still alive, because Bai Jinyi was in love with him, but he had already been dead six years when she killed his wife So doesn’t add up here”

Gu Nianzhi hated Bai Jinyi’s guts, but she had to adh to convince her that Bai Jinyi had killed Luo Xinxue

Hoas she supposed to convince the judge, if she wasn’t even convinced herself?

Song Jinning did not seem at all confused by this She kne Bai Jinyi ticked, and calether, perhaps you should first think about what kind of person Bai Jinyi is”

“Well, what kind of person is she?”

“The two s for her are her career and theshe wouldn’t do for either of thele sentence

Gu Nianzhi sed a mouthful of okra and pork ribs soup She mused, “The man she’s secretly in love as already dead by then So she committed the ht Luo Xinxue was just a housewife, and had absolutely nothing to do with Bai Jinyi’s work Why would Bai Jinyi kill her to advance her career? Could we be looking at this frole? Maybe Luo Xinxue’s death wasn’t a murder in the first place—or maybe her lanced sideways at Song Jinning If Bai Jinyi was ruthless enough towould be first on her list of targets?

Then again, Song Jinning was already suffering from her mental disorder at that point It was possible Bai Jinyi no longer saw Song Jinning as an obstacle because of that

But ould she kill Luo Xinxue?

Had she killed Luo Xinxue by mistake?

Gu Nianzhi quickly rejected the idea

Luo Xinxue and Song Jinning weren’t even living in the same place back then There was zero possibility of Bai Jinyi trying to kill Song Jinning and so Luo Xinxue by mistake

And besides, Medical Exaested that Luo Xinxue had most likely been the victim of a premeditated murder

Gu Nianzhitime, but could not co over the physical evidence checklist sub amiss, and was struck with sudden inspiration She decided to take a gay around the for the secret trial rolled around, three days later, Gu Nianzhi was confident she was on the right track

She changed into a siray skirt suit, and coiled her hair into a bun She put on solasses, in an effort to look et-up, and frowned

The suit was a little too for It pinched her around the waist and accentuated her every curve, drawing attention to her as
