Luo Jialan was flustered and stammered, "How … how is that possible?! Yamaguchi Youko died a long time ago! She died more than a year earlier than Yamaguchi Aiko! "
"Huh?" Gu Nianzhi shushed her. "You actually know Yamaguchi Youko? Did Yamaguchi Aiko tell you that they were sisters? "
Yamaguchi Aiko had actually said this herself when she was hunting Gu Nianzhi in the Caribbean Sea.
Gu Nianzhi actually didn't really believe her words, but it was still useful to use it to trick Luo Jialan.
Luo Jialan didn't expect Gu Nianzhi to also know about the relationship between Yamaguchi Aiko and Yamaguchi Youko. She quickly nodded and said, "That's right. I think you got the wrong photo, right? This is obviously Yamaguchi Aiko. She said she had a twin sister called Yamaguchi Youko … "
"That's right." Gu Nianzhi clasped her hands. "Yamaguchi Aiko was hunting me down because she wanted to avenge her sister, Yamaguchi Youko. Do you know that too?"
Luo Jialan almost blurted out, "I know."
When Cai Shengnan heard this, she felt that she had to stop Luo Jialan. "Miss Luo, you didn't tell me about this."
She was also angry.
It was obvious that the relationship between Luo Jialan and Yamaguchi Aiko was more than just good friends borrowing money from each other, but she didn't say a word to her.
Now that she had been tricked into revealing it, she turned around and blamed her for not fulfilling her responsibilities as a lawyer.
Cai Shengnan cursed Luo Jialan silently as she coughed and turned to look at Gu Nianzhi. "That's enough, lawyer Gu. Your question now has nothing to do with your accusation of 'money laundering' against my client. My client has no obligation to answer anything other than your accusation. "
Luo Jialan understood now and immediately shut her mouth. She didn't say anything else.
Gu Nianzhi looked up at Cai Shengnan and said lightly, "How is this a topic other than the accusation? Since Luo Jialan and Yamaguchi Aiko have such close ties, and the owner of the account they transferred money to was hunting me down in Germany, and Yamaguchi Aiko herself was hunting me down in the Caribbean Sea, can you say that Luo Jialan has nothing to do with these two hunts? "
"What connection could there be? At most, my client made friends carelessly. Are you going to blame her for what her friends did? "Cai Shengnan sneered. Her expression was relaxed, which made Luo Jialan feel a lot more at ease.
"Hehe, if she didn't give Yamaguchi Aiko five million euros for free, I believe she really made a bad friend. But with such a large sum of money involved, you're telling me that she was careless in making friends? — Sorry, that's because you have a problem with your IQ. You can't see such a simple logical connection. "
Gu Nianzhi mocked Cai Shengnan without hesitation.
Cai Shengnan wasn't as easily manipulated by Gu Nianzhi as Luo Jialan was. She just smiled and said, "Whether there's a logical connection or not depends on how the court rules. It's not whatever lawyer Gu says."
Gu Nianzhi's expression changed, and she said seriously, "That's right. It depends on how the court rules. It depends on whether you're willing to cover your eyes and pretend you can't see the evil in front of you, or if the judge and jury use normal thinking to reach a normal conclusion. In fact, Yamaguchi Aiko tried to kill me twice, and Luo Jialan gave Yamaguchi Aiko money to assist her in her pursuit. It can be considered as an accomplice in murder. Not only do I want to sue Luo Jialan for accomplice in murder, but I also want to add a huge punitive civil claim. "
"Luo Jialan, just wait until you lose everything!"
Luo Jialan was so anxious that the veins on her forehead bulged.
Gu Nianzhi had already sued her for attempting to murder Song Jinning, and now she was going to sue her for assisting in Gu Nianzhi's murder?!
Was there an end to this?!
Luo Jialan ignored Cai Shengnan's look and immediately said, "I said I lent her the money. I was also deceived. I lost such a large sum of money. Where am I going to cry? What else do you want? "
Cai Shengnan quickly said, "My client was clearly deceived. Are you blind?"
"Deceived? Did you call the police? Did you seek compensation from Yamaguchi Aiko's estate? "Gu Nianzhi pressed." If you didn't, how can you tell me that you were deceived?! "
Cai Shengnan sneered. "Isn't it just calling the police?"
She lowered her head and texted Luo Jialan on her phone: [It's up to you whether you want to call the police or not. If you don't call the police, you will be suspected of 'money laundering' and accomplice in murder. If you call the police, these two charges can at least be cleared up quickly.]
Luo Jialan was puzzled, so she texted and asked: [How do I clear up? Yamaguchi Aiko is already dead. What's the use of calling the police?! Are you out of your mind?]
Cai Shengnan patiently explained to her: [Even if Yamaguchi Aiko is dead, her estate is still there. Someone in her family should have received her estate. We can seek compensation from the family who received Yamaguchi Aiko's estate.]
This way, Luo Jialan could get rid of at least two charges.
Luo Jialan struggled for a long time. Her face alternated between red and white. She gritted her teeth and replied: [Call the police then. Why should I be afraid of her?]
Yamaguchi Aiko was dead anyway. Luo Jialan didn't leave any written evidence with Yamaguchi Aiko, so she shouldn't be afraid of Yamaguchi Aiko's family biting back at her.
Besides, it wasn't certain if Yamaguchi Aiko had family …
Luo Jialan remembered that Yamaguchi Aiko had vaguely told her that she and her sister, Yamaguchi Youko, were dependent on each other and didn't have any other family.
Now that both sisters were dead, Luo Jialan had no idea where their estate had gone. She didn't even know where their home was.
But at this point, she only wanted to get rid of the two felony charges hanging over her head as soon as possible.
"Okay, then call the police." Cai Shengnan and Luo Jialan finished their discussion via text message. They came up to Gu Nianzhi and said, "We've decided to call the police."
"Okay, then call the police right away." Gu Nianzhi held her phone. "Do you want me to call the police?"
Cai Shengnan: "…"
She narrowed her eyes and looked at Gu Nianzhi suspiciously. "Are you in such a hurry?"
Gu Nianzhi retracted her hand and smiled. "No hurry, I'm not in a hurry. But if you want to delay it now, I don't have the time to compete with you in patience. If you don't call the police now, then I'll call the police. "As she spoke, Gu Nianzhi pretended to dial the imperial capital's police hotline.
"Why are you calling the police?!" Cai Shengnan was even more suspicious. "I'm Miss Luo's lawyer. You can't call the police without us, can you?"
Gu Nianzhi held the phone to her ear and looked at her in amusement. She said airily, "Who said I was going to call the police for you? I'm doing it for myself. "
"For yourself?" Luo Jialan's heart sank. "What do you mean?"
"What do you mean?" Gu Nianzhi sneered. "I saw the accomplice who was after me. Do you think I could just watch you escape? Of course I'm going to call the police. "
"What?!" Cai Shengnan was also stunned. "Are you really going to call the police and accuse my client of being Yamaguchi Aiko's accomplice?!"
"Of course. You guys are so protective of this Yamaguchi Aiko that I have no choice but to have reasonable suspicions. "As she spoke, Gu Nianzhi was already dialing.
Luo Jialan panicked and quickly took out her phone to call the police. Without waiting for Gu Nianzhi to speak, she said repeatedly, "I … I'll call the police. I … I was scammed of money!"
She couldn't let Gu Nianzhi call the police first to accuse her of being the killer's accomplice, so she could only call the police first.
The police officer on the other side seemed to be surprised as well. After a while, he asked, "May I ask where you're from? Where did you get scammed of money? How much did you scam? Was it a phone scam or an internet scam? "
Luo Jialan came back to her senses and said nervously, "… I was scammed in Europe. They scammed me of five million euros."
The police officer on the other side: "…"
"How much were you scammed?!"
"… Five million euros. I have a bank transfer to prove the money. "
Luo Jialan calmed down and thought to herself, Wasn't it just calling the police? Who wouldn't know how to do it!
"Then who scammed you of your money? Is she also a Huaxia Empire citizen? "The police officer obviously felt that this case was probably not under their jurisdiction, so he asked in detail.
Luo Jialan shook her head. "She should be a Japanese citizen, right? Her name is Yamaguchi Aiko. "
The police officer on the other side entered the data and looked up the name "Yamaguchi Aiko" in the database.
This was their working procedure. Every time, they would search the suspect database to see if there were any new discoveries.
In the end, they found an unexpected result.
He glanced at the information that had been retrieved, and the information stated that it was exclusive to the Special Operations Forces. He immediately became cautious and said to Luo Jialan kindly, "This case involves a huge amount of money. Can you explain it in more detail?"
Luo Jialan glanced at Cai Shengnan.
Cai Shengnan and she leaned over to the phone to listen. She nodded and said to the police officer, "I'm Miss Luo's lawyer. Here's what happened …"
In Huo Xuenong's VIP ward, Cai Shengnan and Luo Jialan could only be heard talking to the phone.
Gu Nianzhi looked down at her phone. Huo Shaoheng had sent her a text message asking her to stall for time.
Her phone was on Face Time with Huo Shaoheng.
Her phone was on silent, so Huo Shaoheng's voice couldn't be heard, but the images and sounds on this side could be seen and heard through Face Time.
Huo Shaoheng saw and heard it.
Therefore, even though Huo Shaoheng wasn't present, he knew everything that was going on in the ward like the back of his hand.
Huo Xuenong, who was lying on the hospital bed, was dumbfounded as he watched the development of the situation. He vaguely felt that things were beyond his control.
Xie Shenxing, on the other hand, had his hands behind his back the entire time. He smiled as he watched Gu Nianzhi press forward and drag Luo Jialan in.
He and his two staff members felt as if they were watching a stage play.
On the other end of the phone, the police officer had already contacted the special operations forces' special operations forces and reported new clues related to "Yamaguchi Aiko" to them.
..
In the corridor outside the ward, Huo Shaoheng walked out of the dark corridor unhurriedly. As he spoke into his Bluetooth headset, he calmly issued an order: "All action teams, get ready. New clues have appeared. Immediately apply for legal procedures and take over the suspect from the Imperial Military General Hospital."
He came to Huo Xuenong's ward and stood in front of it. He lit a cigarette and silently stood in front of the window in the corridor to smoke.
The window was slightly open, and the evening breeze blew in with the faint fragrance of flowers.
In the ward, Gu Nianzhi was still pestering Luo Jialan and Cai Shengnan. She was arguing about who should call the police and trying to stall for time for him.
Not long after, the special operations forces' team arrived in front of Huo Xuenong's VIP ward.
Huo Shaoheng nodded at them. "Have you obtained the power of attorney, arrest warrant, and search warrant?"
"Got it." The leader of the operation team in front showed him three documents.
The power of attorney was obtained from the police station where Luo Jialan had just reported the case, and the arrest warrant and search warrant were obtained from the court.
Huo Shaoheng still didn't go in. He said to the team leader, "Take two people in first. Don't be in a hurry to arrest them. Just show them your IDs. "
What he wanted was for these people to intimidate Luo Jialan psychologically.
As Huo Shaoheng spoke, he sent a text message to Gu Nianzhi's phone: [Calm Luo Jialan down and ask her about the contents of the will.]
