Chapter 301 Someone Saw Her

Huo Jialan was turned pale by Gu Nianzhi, she nodded slowly, her voice became weaker and weaker: "...on the night my mother passed away, I...my mother suddenly called an intercom and asked me to go downstairs to see her."

"and then?"

"It was already late at night, and I fell asleep, and was woken up by her phone call, but hearing her voice was very weak, I hurried downstairs to look."

"Wait, you said it was late at night?" Gu Nianzhi reconfirmed, "You said before that you found your mother dead on the bed early in the morning? Did you go to your mother's room before that?"

Huo Jialan pursed her lips in pain, closed her eyes, and said with a choked voice, "Yes, I also went to my mother's room the night before."

Bai Jinyi's heart was beating violently, blood was rushing through her veins, and even her eardrums were throbbing.

She never imagined that that night...Luo Xinxue still had the strength to call her daughter!

Before that, she was playing dead!

While Gu Nianzhi was asking Huo Jialan, he looked at Bai Jinyi carefully from the corner of his eye.

None of the changes in Bai Jinyi's expression escaped her eyes.

She nodded secretly in her heart, knowing that she was going in the right direction.

In the case ten years ago, there was almost no direct evidence, so we had to find possible direct witnesses.

Huo Jialan was the first person who discovered Luo Xinxue's death back then, either she was the murderer, or she should know the most about the situation.

Gu Nianzhi's summoning of Huo Jialan as a witness was also a strategy of killing two birds with one stone.

She asked calmly, "Then tell me what you saw the night before."

Huo Jialan pursed her lips, turned her eyes to Bai Jinyi who was sitting on the dock, and said slowly: "That night, my mother called me inside and asked me to go to her room. After I went, I saw my mother lying on the ground ..."

Her tears finally flowed down.

Although it has been ten years since this incident, her heart is suffering all the time.

"Fell on the ground? Why did you fall on the ground? Did you see anyone else in the room?" Gu Nianzhi followed closely.

"... There was no one else in the room. I don't know why she fell to the floor. When I went down, she was unconscious. The telephone jack was hanging from the bedside table, the room was turned into a mess, and the floor was still lying on the ground. There are scattered letters." Huo Jialan wiped away tears, "I helped my mother up and put her on the bed, she seemed to be asleep. I pushed her, she opened her eyes and looked at me, and fell asleep again .”

"Your mother called you on the internal line and asked you to go to her room, but she didn't say anything?" Gu Nianzhihu questioned, feeling very unreasonable.

"Yes, maybe she couldn't speak at that time. If I knew that my mother died the next morning, I would push her hard to wake her up that night and ask her what she had to say..." Huo Jialan covered her mouth face, crying very sadly, "I really didn't know that night was the last time I would see my mother."

Gu Nianzhi waited quietly for a while, until Huo Jialan's crying stopped, and then continued to ask: "You mean, your mother's room was burglarized the night before she died?"

Huo Jialan nodded, "Yes, someone should have broken into my mother's room. I thought it was just my mother saw those love letters and smashed the room into a mess in a rage. Now I heard you say that my mother didn't commit suicide, so I remembered What happened that night should not have been caused by my mother herself."

"This is strange." Gu Nianzhi spread his hands again, "With the Huo family's status and defense, how could it be possible to be thieves? Huo Jialan, think again, what happened at that time?"

Huo Jialan's eyes flickered, and after a while, she finally said slowly: "...With the Huo family's status and defense, outside thieves will definitely not be able to get in. But if the thief is the Huo family, or someone familiar with the Huo family Woolen cloth?"

Gu Nianzhi waited for Huo Jialan to say this.

When she was researching this case, she thought about this issue carefully.

To find the clues of Bai Jinyi's crime,

Huo Jialan must testify against her.

Huo Jialan was almost the only breakthrough in this case.

But it was not easy for her to speak. Huo Shaoheng even used a lie detector, but with little effect.

With the help of Director Wang, an expert in evidence identification, Gu Nianzhi locked a birth certificate in Luo Xinxue's relic.

Starting from this birth certificate, Huo Jialan had to confess Bai Jinyi in order to clear her suspicions.

Gu Nianzhi followed closely Huo Jialan's words: "Hearing you say that, you seem to know this person well? Do you know who it is?"

Huo Jialan hesitated.

Jin Dazhuang immediately shouted: "Objection! The plaintiff's lawyer intentionally induced a confession!"

"The objection is valid." The judge tapped the gavel, "The plaintiff's lawyer shall not induce a confession."

Gu Nianzhi immediately changed his words: "Huo Jialan, there is no such thief, you made up everything! The real murderer of your mother is actually you!"

"It's not me!" Huo Jialan yelled in panic, pointing at Bai Jinyi on the dock: "She! It's her! When I went downstairs to find my mother, I saw her just leaving my mother's room!"

There was a dead silence in the courtroom, and then there was a crash, like a drop of water falling into a frying pan, and sparks flew everywhere.

"Really seen?!"

"how is this possible?!"

The fifteen barristers at the Bai family looked at each other and questioned each other, lest they heard it wrong.

Bai Jinyi's whole body was trembling, and her face was extremely pale for a moment, but she quickly sat up straight, closed her eyes and sneered, "Spearing rumors, slander! Huo Jialan, in order to exonerate yourself, you made it too outrageous." .Did you know that giving false testimony in court is a felony!"

"Really?" Gu Nianzhi walked to Bai Jinyi's dock, folded his hands behind his back, and sized her up carefully, "But what Huo Jialan said was very logical and in line with the situation at the time. ——Bai Jinyi, would you like to explain, ten What did you do in Luo Xinxue's room that late night before? She was almost unconscious at the time, did you give her sleeping pills? Bai Jinyi, don't forget, you are also a psychiatrist, and you can also prescribe it. Sleeping pills?"

Bai Jinyi refused to open her eyes to look at Gu Nianzhi, her voice was calm and sharp: "She said I went to Luo Xinxue's room and I went? I also said that she killed her mother, do you believe it? Let's talk about me It’s a psychiatrist, of course he can prescribe sleeping pills, so is it possible that all psychiatrists who can prescribe sleeping pills are suspected of murder?”

"Of course not all psychiatrists who can prescribe sleeping pills are suspected of murder." Gu Nianzhi shook his finger at Bai Jinyi, "But the psychiatrists related to Luo Xinxue and who could come and go freely in Huo's house were only Are you alone, Physicist Bai? Or call you, Psychologist Bai?"

Bai Jinyi still wanted to refute, but Jin Dazhuang held her hand, shook his head at her, then stood up, and said to the judge: "Your Honor, in view of the plaintiff's new evidence, we request a certain amount of time to investigate this plaintiff. New witness."

The judge nodded. "Agreed. Trial will start again in three days."

The gavel fell, and the second round of hearings came to an end.

Bai Jinyi was taken back to the detention center by the judicial police. She is in a special situation and cannot be released on bail for the time being.

Huo Jialan was emotionally unstable and suspected, and was sent back to Huo's house by Huo Shaoheng's people. Of course, there were many people under custody, which was stricter than a detention center.
