General Ji thought about it for a while and rubbed his white beard with one hand. He suddenly frowned and glanced at Huo Shaoheng.
"What's wrong? Do you remember now? " Huo Shaoheng asked immediately. Although he reacted quickly, he wasn't particularly anxious. His tone was still neither fast nor slow, making it difficult to figure out his thoughts.
General Ji nodded slightly. He thought he would tell Huo Shaoheng. He should be more reliable than his father, Huo Guanchen..
He raised the cigar in his hand and took a few more puffs. General Ji lowered his eyes and said calmly, "If I remember correctly, your uncle's suicide note was given to a vice president of the military for safekeeping."
"A vice president of the military? Who is it? "Huo Shaoheng lowered his head and took out his phone. He began to search for the vice presidents of the military 17 years ago.
There was only one president of the military, but there could be several vice presidents.
There were eight at most, and three at least.
Huo Shaoheng couldn't remember who the vice presidents of the military were at that time.
On his phone, the list of all the vice presidents of the military from 17 years ago was displayed on the military intranet.
Every one of them had a name, photo, and a simple resume.
The first on the list was Huo Shaoheng's grandfather, Huo Xuenong, the father of Huo Guanyuan, who had died.
Huo Shaoheng's fingers paused.
There was no need to ask anymore. He knew who had the suicide note..
Huo Shaoheng raised his head as usual and smiled. "Thank you for your guidance, General Ji. I'll go back and ask now."
"Don't worry." General Ji smiled and took a puff of his cigar. He said meaningfully, "Your grandfather is old. He was very stubborn back then, so he must be even more stubborn now. You have to smooth things over. Don't make the old man sick. "
Huo Shaoheng stood up and saluted solemnly. "Yes, Chief!"
..
It was already around nine in the morning when he returned to his Special Operations Forces headquarters from the military headquarters.
Huo Shaoheng returned to his official residence and handed his military hat to the orderly. He asked casually, "Where's Nianzhi? What's she doing? "
The orderly quickly said, "Reporting, Chief! Miss Gu drove out early in the morning. She said she was going to Green City and asked you to call her if you needed anything. "
Huo Shaoheng's hand, which was being held by Jie Fengji, paused. He slowly looked at the orderly. "… She went to Green City?"
The most famous prison in Greentown was the Greentown Female Prison.
She quickly remembered that Bai Jinyi was being held there. She must have gone to see Bai Jinyi.
Huo Shaoheng breathed a sigh of relief. He took off his military jacket and hung it in the closet at the entrance before going upstairs to rest.
…
Gu Nianzhi had already arrived at the reception room of Green City Women's Prison and was sitting opposite Bai Jinyi.
She smiled at Bai Jinyi and nodded. "Physicist Bai, long time no see. You look just as good as before, and your figure and skin are much better than when you were in prison."
Gu Nianzhi remembered seeing Bai Jinyi in court a year and a half ago. Her skin was a little dark, and there were deep crow's feet at the corners of her eyes. She was also slightly chubby.
But now, Bai Jinyi, who was sitting in front of her, was much fairer and thinner. She was at least two sizes smaller, but the skin on her face was not loose. Instead, it was taut and stylish, and there was a faint luster in the sunlight from the window.
She seemed to be having a good time in prison …
Gu Nianzhi's eyes turned cold.
Bai Jinyi was also looking at Gu Nianzhi.
After not seeing her for a year and a half, the little girl's eyes were much sharper than before. They had lost their childishness and looked mature and steady.
Her eyes were extremely large and black, and her jade-like pupils were like fine black gold velvet. They were so black that they had a texture to them.
Her tall and well-embroidered nose bridge made her face look very three-dimensional, and she had the bright beauty of a European woman.
Any Eastern woman with such looks was a peerless beauty.
Bai Jinyi's gaze slid from Gu Nianzhi's beautiful face to her bulging chest.
Gu Nianzhi was wearing a loose half-sleeved knitted sweater made of crystal blue silk and cotton blend with a little cashmere. The opening of the collar revealed her delicate collarbone.
The Van Cleef & Arpels monochrome necklace around her neck was simple and elegant. It inadvertently highlighted the details and had a low-key luxury.
Long hair draped over her shoulders, bright eyes, and spirited eyes. This was the kind of woman who described her.
Bai Jinyi sighed softly in her heart, and her expression darkened.
The Song Jinning of the past was so similar to the Gu Nianzhi now.
They were both talented and beautiful girls, and they both had men who truly loved and valued them.
However, Song Jinning's taste was much worse than Gu Nianzhi's …
A strange smile appeared on Bai Jinyi's face as she thought viciously.
Gu Nianzhi raised an eyebrow and placed her hands on the long conference table in front of her. She said softly, "Bai Jinyi, have you ever thought about why I came to see you?"
Bai Jinyi raised her head. "That's a question you should be thinking about. Why should I waste my time thinking about such a boring question?"
She expressed her disdain by ignoring her.
Gu Nianzhi shook her head. "Why bother? Haven't you ever thought about who caused you to be in prison now, from a promising physicist to this state? "
The corners of Bai Jinyi's mouth curled into a mocking smile. She leaned forward and said, "I've thought about it. The culprit who caused me to be in prison, from a promising physicist to a qualified end, is you, lawyer Gu!"
Gu Nianzhi curled the corners of her lips and smiled. "… Is that so? I'm honored, but unfortunately, you're wrong. " As she spoke, Gu Nianzhi added, "No wonder you're not as good as Ms. Song. Your IQ, intuition, and acuity are far inferior to hers."
Bai Jinyi could no longer maintain her composure. She stood up with a swoosh and sneered, "If you keep talking, I won't entertain you anymore!"
She turned around and walked towards the door of the reception room.
Gu Nianzhi watched coldly as she walked towards the door. Just as Bai Jinyi's hand was on the door handle, Gu Nianzhi said, "… Bai Jinyi, Huo Jialan didn't know that Song Jinning knew about her background until you told her."
Bai Jinyi's hand froze.
Her eyes suddenly widened. She suddenly turned around and walked back quickly. She placed her hands on the conference table and asked anxiously, "What did you say? Say it again! "
Gu Nianzhi crossed her arms and smiled confidently. "The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. You think you're the oriole, but in fact, you're just the oriole that the hunter has placed in the net. "
"Huo Jialan, oh, no, it should be Luo Jialan. She's changed her surname and moved out of the Huo family's household registration." Gu Nianzhi stared fixedly at Bai Jinyi, not missing the slightest change in her expression.
Instead of beating around the bush to interrogate Bai Jinyi, she went straight to the point. "So can you tell me, when did you tell Luo Jialan that Song Jinning was also an insider of her background?"
This kind of direct questioning method could make the other party subconsciously answer the question she wanted to hide the answer to the question she wanted to hide.
Bai Jinyi's lips trembled, and her eyes shone as she looked at Gu Nianzhi. "You … What do you mean by this?"
"Tell me first, when did you tell Luo Jialan that Song Jinning was also an insider of her background?"
Gu Nianzhi repeated calmly and opened her arms. She held a pen and a recording pen in her hand. "Tell me. Maybe I can piece together another timeline and help you find the person who escaped the net to help you commit the crime."
