Chapter 1617 Opening a New Curtain

Qin Yaoguang was not in a hurry to answer, his plump and plump water chestnut lips were bent more like a water chestnut, and he uttered a sentence slowly: "Why did Admiral He Chengjian arrest Gu Xiangwen to pay for his wife's life? ——Is it important?"

"Of course it's important." Gu Nianzhi was a little nervous, her palms were sweating, and she put her back behind her back calmly, "Because this can prove whether your motives are reasonable."

Qin Yaoguang rolled his eyes and snorted, "Is it reasonable to prove it? You can understand it with your knees."

"First of all, after Admiral He Chengjian's wife died, Gu Xiangwen was wanted all over the country because he was the last person who saw her. After Gu Xiangwen was wanted, he chose to hide, not to stand up and deny it. Is this true? Isn't it absconding in fear of crime?"

Qin Yaoguang spoke resolutely and resoundingly.

Her gaze was like a lingering silk thread, circling all the way to He Chengjian.

However, He Chengjian's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, his fingers were clenched into fists, exhausting all his self-control, it was difficult to restrain the grief and remorse in his heart.

He Zhichu sighed softly, reached over, and gently took He Chengjian's hand.

Feeling his son's comfort and support, He Chengjian's tumbling emotions calmed down.

He raised his head, his haughty face was indifferent and tough.

...

Gu Nianzhi's heart was shocked.

Many clues that were vaguely considered problematic before were clearly laid out in front of her.

Although she was sure that this was not Qin Yaoguang's real reason, for her, it opened a new curtain, allowing her to touch something that she had never been able to touch before.

She couldn't help looking at He Zhichu and He Chengjian who were sitting silently in the auditorium.

No wonder He Zhichu and He Chengjian became furious whenever Gu Xiangwen was mentioned...

No wonder they held such a deep prejudice against him.

No wonder Gu Xiangwen has kept his name incognito, and even took advantage of the fire to burn himself to plastic surgery into an ordinary appearance, and even gave himself an alias of "Lu Jin".

Is it because of the name Gu Xiangwen, the things that need to be burdened are too heavy?

At this moment, Gu Nianzhi really wanted to return to Lu Jin's side and tell him sincerely that no matter what the truth was, she would bear it with him.

If you want to reach the peak, you must endure the pain.

If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight.

Escaping doesn't solve anything.

Gu Nianzhi thought so much, but it was only a blink of an eye.

She thought about it, and quickly refuted Qin Yaoguang: "Wrong! According to what you said, even if Gu Xiangwen was the last person to see Qin Suwen, General He Chengjian's wife, it does not prove that he was directly related to her death. If I I remember well, Admiral He Chengjian's wife was not murdered, so why is there a wanted warrant for Gu Xiangwen? Is this wanted warrant legal?"

Gu Nianzhi turned around and looked directly at Admiral He Chengjian and Major General He Zhichu in the auditorium.

She was about to question them when Wen Shouyi stood up again and said weakly, "I object. Gu Xiangwen's arrest warrant back then and the death of Admiral He Chengjian's wife Qin Suwen have nothing to do with this case. Please don't ramble and deviate from the case. theme."

The presiding judge hastily tapped it with his gavel, and said, "The objection is valid. Gu Xiangwen's arrest warrant and Qin Suwen's death are another case, which has nothing to do with this case. ——Lawyer for the plaintiff, do you have anything else to say?"

Gu Nianzhi withdrew his gaze, and quickly glanced at Qin Yaoguang, seeing that she still had a stiff and numb expression.

Put on a look of "there is nothing more sad than death" to show to whom?

Gu Nianzhi gave her a sip in her heart.

"My lord judge, I think the motive of the defendant Qin Yaoguang is still open to question." Gu Nianzhi talked eloquently, "She said before that she kidnapped me to lure Gu Xiangwen out, but in fact, I remember her order They took me to the airport because they planned to smuggle me out of the country. ——If you just want to lure Gu Xiangwen out, is it necessary to smuggle me out of the country?"

"At that time, Gu Xiangwen was in China,

and not abroad. "

Wen Shouyi's eyes flickered, and he immediately asked, "Lawyer Gu, how did you know that Gu Xiangwen was in China and not abroad? Could it be that he gave you a dream?"

How could Gu Nianzhi be tricked by her?

Twitching the corners of his mouth in disdain, he said sarcastically, "Lawyer Wen, are you too forgetful? If you don't believe me, but your client Qin Yaoguang personally said that she lured Gu Xiangwen out, and Gu Xiangwen intercepted him at the airport. Take me away, and later he burned himself to death in full view of all of you."

"The place where he burned himself to death was at an intersection in a downtown area of ​​City C."

"Can't this prove that he was in the country at that time?"

Wen Shouyi was silenced by Gu Nianzhi.

She opened her mouth, racked her brains for a while, and said, "My client has already pleaded guilty. According to our country's legal policy, if there is a confession, it will be dealt with leniently. I ask the court..."

"I object." Gu Nianzhi immediately interrupted Wen Shouyi, and said calmly: "Qin Yaoguang just pleaded guilty to kidnapping, but her motive is still a mystery. I have reason to believe that she is trying to plead guilty to a relatively minor charge." , to cover up a bigger conspiracy. I ask the court not to close the case easily, give me some time, and I will find out more evidence!"

"I'm just for Brother He!" Qin Yaoguang suddenly stood up on the table in the dock, her face was flushed red, her plump and plump lips were trembling, and she said in a hoarse voice: "I have only loved one person in my life ...but he doesn't love me...but I can still live and die for him."

Wen Shouyi patted her on the back to comfort her, and pleaded with the court: "Mr. Judge, I'm sorry that my client is a little agitated."

Then I quickly started my closing statement: "My lord judge, all the guests and friends in the court, my client, Ms. His feelings turned into great love, and he devoted himself to scientific research and medical career."

"In nearly 30 years of research, Ms. Qin Yaoguang has made a total of 43 important breakthroughs, proposed the concept of 'gene editing', and made research discoveries worthy of the Nobel Prize."

"I believe that she set up a scheme to kidnap her own daughter, Gu Nianzhi, eight years ago, just for a relationship that she couldn't ask for."

"There is no doubt that my client, Ms. Qin Yaoguang, also has shortcomings, and she has done something wrong."

"This is because she has always been a person who lacks love. Nearly forty years of unrequited love have put a heavy mental pressure on her. Everything she does is based on love."

"I hope that the court will consider all factors and give a prudent sentence. ——Thank you, Lord Judge. Thank you, guests and friends."

After Wen Shouyi finished speaking, he helped Qin Yaoguang who had calmed down to sit down.

Gu Nianzhi tried his best to control his anger, his pretty face was as dazzling as the red clouds in the sky.

Her eyes were shining brightly, and she said word by word: "Is the lack of love so great? Has the lack of love become crazy? If you commit the problem of lack of love, you can commit a crime and deal with it as appropriate?"

"I'm still short of money, and I didn't rob a bank either!"

"So if she is wrong, she is wrong. Don't give her reasons to open up. If you commit a crime, you will be punished by law."

"I don't want to know your client's painful mental journey, and I don't want to hear it. I just hope she can get the punishment she deserves."

Gu Nianzhi turned to look at the presiding judge, and asked again: "So I request the presiding judge to carefully consider the complexity and seriousness of this case and postpone the retrial."

He Zhichu stood up at this time, nodded handsomely towards the trial seat, and said: "As an important witness in this case and the person who reported the case back then, I agree to Lawyer Gu's request. In this case, because of the kidnapping proposed by the defendant The motive is related to the homicide case of my mother's sudden death that year, which has pushed it to the point of a serious criminal case."

"Whether it is conviction and sentencing, or learning from past mistakes, it is far from closing the case."

As soon as He Zhichu spoke, the nature of the case changed completely.

The presiding judge nodded, "We will adjourn the court for fifteen minutes."

With that said, the presiding judge and the two judges left the courtroom again to discuss the progress of the case in the next conference room.

They also have doubts about Qin Yaoguang's motives.

As Gu Nianzhi said, if it was just to lure Gu Xiangwen, they should have informed the He family as soon as Gu Xiangwen took Gu Nianzhi away, but they didn't.

It can be said that this motive has been hidden for eight years. It was revealed that the note was not left by Gu Xiangwen to the He family eight years ago, but written by Gu Xiangwen to Qin Yaoguang fourteen years ago, and the whole case was turned around.

Qin Yaoguang's new motivation in this situation is very touching, but illogical.

In court judgments, direct evidence, indirect evidence, and logical connections are required to corroborate each other to form a complete chain of evidence.

This chain of evidence once directly pointed to Gu Xiangwen.

However, after Gu Nianzhi pointed out that the direct evidence pointing to the note was wrong, the entire chain of evidence was broken and reorganized.

"I agree with the plaintiff's lawyer and witness He Zhichu." A judge said earnestly, "And this case also involves the truth about the death of Barrister Qin Suwen. I think the retrial can be postponed."

Another judge also agreed, but he also had concerns: "But the Qin family, I'm afraid they won't let it go. The defendant Qin Yaoguang has a high social status, and it also involves his personal relationship with General He Chengjian..."

The presiding judge pondered for a long time before making a decision: "Then postpone the retrial until the plaintiff presents more evidence. ——The Qin family and Admiral He Chengjian, if there is any blame, I will bear it."

The three made up their minds and quickly returned to the trial court.

The presiding judge tapped the gavel and announced: "Because the defendant's new motive is inconsistent with the logic of the direct evidence and circumstantial evidence, the court is temporarily adjourned and postponed, waiting for the plaintiff to present more evidence."

At the same time, it was announced: "The defendant Qin Yaoguang's kidnapping is established, and he is tentatively detained in a separate cell of the military prison, pending retrial."

Qin Yaoguang suddenly raised his head, looked at the presiding judge in disbelief, then turned his head to look at He Chengjian.

But he saw that the presiding judge had already stepped off the trial seat, shaking hands with Gu Nianzhi and chatting cordially with a smile on his face.

And He Chengjian... He Chengjian already had a dark face, and without looking at her, surrounded by the crowd, he strode away from the courtroom.

Qin Yaoguang slumped on the seat all of a sudden, and the last trace of expression in his eyes disappeared little by little.

Several military police came over and took her to a separate cell in the military prison.

Wen Shouyi deliberately followed her to make sure she was staying there before leaving the heavily guarded military prison.

When she came out of the military prison, she saw that the sky in the west was full of sunset, and the evening of the last day of the Gregorian calendar year had just quietly arrived.
