Gu Nianzhi looked straight ahead at the courtroom and didn't look in Wen Shouyi's direction.
However, as soon as Wen Shouyi made a move, Gu Nianzhi knew that Wen Shouyi was indeed a strong opponent.
It all depended on the entry point she was looking for. If Gu Nianzhi were in her shoes, she would argue the same way.
Because they only had one note as evidence, and it was circumstantial evidence.
This note confirmed that the kidnapping and disappearance eight years ago had nothing to do with Gu Xiangwen, but it wasn't certain that it had something to do with Qin Yaoguang.
When they tried to investigate and collect evidence, all the laboratory staff were killed.
This method was simple and crude. It was as if they were trying to expose themselves.
However, this method was very effective because it cut off the entire chain of evidence at the root.
Unless they could catch the mastermind behind the car accident and prove that the mastermind was directly related to Qin Yaoguang, it would be very difficult for them to convict Qin Yaoguang based on the note alone.
Even though Gu Nianzhi knew that Old Master Qin had personally gone to see Qin Yaoguang two days ago and asked her to plead guilty, when it came to court, it was about evidence and logic.
You weren't guilty just because you said you were guilty.
You weren't guilty just because you said you weren't guilty.
Gu Nianzhi's mind churned with the entry point she had been pondering over for the past two days. She sighed softly and a faint smile appeared on her face.
As Wen Shouyi spoke, she glanced at Gu Nianzhi and saw a smile appear on Gu Nianzhi's pretty face. She paused before continuing, "So I want to plead my client's innocence."
Qin Yaoguang's eyelids twitched. She quickly glanced at Wen Shouyi and secretly curled the corners of her lips.
She really hadn't doted on this child for nothing …
Qin Yaoguang's heart calmed down. She couldn't help glancing at the gallery behind Gu Nianzhi.
He Chengjian and He Zhichu were sitting in the gallery behind her. Their postures were straight, and they were sitting in the standard military posture.
The father and son looked very similar. He Zhichu had inherited his father's good looks. Looking at him was like looking at He Chengjian when he was young.
Qin Yaoguang sighed in her heart. She looked away and looked at Gu Nianzhi, who was in the plaintiff's seat.
She was tall, slender, and graceful. Her face was pretty, and her big black eyes were sparkling like bright pearls. She was the first bud of a strange flower.
He really was different from when he was fat and short when he was young …
While Qin Yaoguang was lost in her thoughts, the presiding judge in the courtroom began to speak. He looked at Gu Nianzhi. "Plaintiff's lawyer, do you agree with the defendant's lawyer?"
Gu Nianzhi stood up and stopped smiling. She said sternly, "I disagree."
Wen Shouyi nodded and said calmly, "Lawyer Gu, please don't be emotional. You and my client are biological mother and daughter. The two of you haven't seen each other for many years, and there's a barrier between the two of you. This is a problem that can be solved. But just based on a guess, you sued your own mother and made so many people follow you around. It's a waste of society's resources. "
Gu Nianzhi turned to look at her, and a trace of mockery flashed in her eyes. She looked down and said calmly, "I'm your client's biological mother and daughter. What does that have to do with me suing her? Or do you think that parents have the power to kill their children? If parents want their children to die, their children have no choice but to die, and the parents don't have to bear any legal responsibility? "
"If parents directly caused the death of their children, of course they have to bear legal responsibility. But the problem is, do you have evidence to prove that my client was responsible for the kidnapping and disappearance back then? "Wen Shouyi laughed. She suddenly felt that she had overestimated Gu Nianzhi.
It was obvious that the other party was powerless in front of her.
Gu Nianzhi took a deep breath and clenched her hands into fists. She walked out of her plaintiff's stand and stood in front of the defendant's stand. She faced Qin Yaoguang, who was sitting with a smile, and asked calmly, "Ms. Qin Yaoguang, may I ask if this note was written by Gu Xiangwen to you 14 years ago?"
She was still holding the only piece of evidence, the note written by Gu Xiangwen. "You don't have to look for it anymore. I've taken my daughter away!"
Qin Yaoguang nodded. "It was written by Gu Xiangwen to my laboratory staff 14 years ago."
This had already been confirmed in the last trial of the Intermediate People's Court. That was why the Intermediate People's Court had issued an arrest warrant and the military had taken over to take Qin Yaoguang and her laboratory staff away to assist in the investigation.
Gu Nianzhi placed a copy of the note on the defendant's stand in front of Qin Yaoguang. She leaned forward and asked with a smile, "… May I ask why my father wrote this note 14 years ago?"
Qin Yaoguang raised her eyelids and smiled. She raised her chin at the plaintiff's stand behind her and said, "Because your father wanted to take you away from me and send you to the He family."
"Really? If I was by your side, why would my father write a note to your laboratory? Why didn't he write it to you directly? "
Gu Nianzhi tilted her head and smiled, but her eyes were abnormally cold as she looked at Qin Yaoguang with immense pressure.
Qin Yaoguang was stunned. She hadn't expected Gu Nianzhi to ask this question herself.
Wen Shouyi saw that the situation wasn't looking good and immediately said, "Objection! The question asked by the plaintiff's lawyer has nothing to do with this case! "
"Your Honor, my question is directly related to this case. I'll prove it to you right away." Gu Nianzhi quickly turned around to refute Wen Shouyi.
The presiding judge raised his hand. "Objection overruled, but the plaintiff, please get to the point as soon as possible."
Gu Nianzhi was very grateful. "Thank you, Your Honor."
She turned to look at Qin Yaoguang. "You just said that I was living by your side at the time, so why wasn't my father writing the note to you, but to the people in your laboratory?"
Qin Yaoguang was interrogated by Gu Nianzhi. She quickly glanced at the defendant's gallery and happened to meet Old Master Qin's gaze.
Gu Nianzhi had been watching her movements the whole time. She turned her head to look at Old Master Qin and smiled. "What's wrong? Dean Qin doesn't know how to answer this question? Do you have to ask your chairman, Old Master Qin? Could it be that Old Master Qin is also an insider? "
This accusation was a little too much.
Old Master Qin was so angry that his face turned red. He said repeatedly, "Preposterous! Preposterous! "
Wen Shouyi quickly stood up and said, "Objection! The plaintiff continuously testifies against unrelated bystanders without any evidence. It's a violation of a lawyer's ethics. "
The presiding judge nodded. "Objection sustained. Plaintiff, please pay attention to your words. "
Gu Nianzhi had said it on purpose because she knew that the person who put the most pressure on Qin Yaoguang was Old Master Qin.
Since Qin Yaoguang listened to Old Master Qin in everything, and Old Master Qin had persuaded Qin Yaoguang to plead guilty two days ago, it would be a waste not to use this as an entry point.
Under Gu Nianzhi's aggressiveness, Qin Yaoguang gritted her teeth and looked straight into Gu Nianzhi's eyes. "Do you really want to know?"
"Of course." Gu Nianzhi leaned against the defendant's table and knocked on the table with one hand. She smiled faintly and said, "Lawyer Wen just said that this note alone wasn't enough to prove that you had something to do with the case back then. I'm proving that this note alone can prove that you had something to do with the case back then."
"If it doesn't matter, then please answer me. Why did my father, Gu Xiangwen, write a note to your lab and say that he wanted to take me away from you?"
Qin Yaoguang's breathing gradually became unstable. She glared at Gu Nianzhi. She hadn't expected her to take the initiative to bring up what happened back then. Had she really lost her memory, or had she recovered it …
After looking at her for a long time, Qin Yaoguang gritted her teeth and said, "Because I was busy with work and lived in the lab all day long, so you followed me in the lab."
Gu Nianzhi looked at her meaningfully. "Is that so? That means you used the lab as a nursery? You let me play in your lab? You put a child who wasn't even six years old in your biomedical lab. Did you ever think about the child's safety? "
Qin Yaoguang said with a fake smile, "You're thinking too much. Don't you remember? My lab is monitored 24 hours a day. It's very safe. "
"24 hours a day? How tight could the surveillance be 14 years ago? "Gu Nianzhi shook her head with a chuckle." I don't believe it. "
"It's the truth. You have to believe it." Qin Yaoguang pursed her lips. "Our lab has always been doing sophisticated experiments. In order to observe the progress of the experiments, it has always been monitored 24 hours a day, and it has been synchronized with cloud storage. How could it not be safe? How could it not be tight? "
"Oh, so that means there was synchronized cloud storage technology 14 years ago?" Gu Nianzhi asked casually.
Qin Yaoguang laughed and said softly, "Of course, our technology here is very advanced."
Gu Nianzhi instantly understood what she meant, but she didn't answer. She changed the topic. "Then this note was actually written for you, not for the people in your lab, right?"
"Because you've already admitted that you were the one who took care of the child at the time, but you put the child in your workplace."
Qin Yaoguang hesitated for a moment, feeling that something was wrong.
"Defendant, please answer yes or no."
Qin Yaoguang had no choice but to reluctantly answer, "Yes."
"Then this note has always been in your hands?" Gu Nianzhi asked again.
Qin Yaoguang shook her head again and denied it. "No. I casually put this note on the lab table after I read it. I don't know where it went after that. "
"Really? You actually casually put such an important thing on the lab table? "Gu Nianzhi looked surprised.
"What's so important about that?" Qin Yaoguang couldn't help rolling her eyes. "Who would take something written by a lunatic seriously? Besides, he's your father. What can I do if he wants to take you away? Can I still object? "
Wen Shouyi smiled victoriously. "Lawyer Gu, the situation is already very obvious. Someone stole the note my client left on the lab table. After six years, they took it out and caused trouble again. It has nothing to do with my client. "
Gu Nianzhi immediately said, "Really? Since the defendant's lawyer said that someone stole her client's things, I request that the surveillance of Qin Yaoguang's lab from 14 years ago be investigated. "
"If someone really stole the note, as a lab with 24-hour uninterrupted surveillance and synchronized cloud storage, not only can we find out when the defendant put the note on the lab table, but we can also find out who stole the note that year!"
