Gu Nianzhi turned around and looked at Lu Jin with her big eyes sparkling. She asked curiously, "… Did Auntie He investigate the death of her parents?"
According to the era, Qin Suwen should be less than ten years old at that time. She was still young.
Later, when she became an adult, Qin Suwen studied law and was a top lawyer. She married into a family like the He family.
How could she not investigate the cause of her parents' death?
Lu Jin nodded. "I've investigated it. Many of the things I'm telling you now were found out by her own investigation. "
Gu Nianzhi was a little disappointed. "So Auntie He investigated it herself."
She knew it. With the He family's status and power, as well as Qin Suwen's ability, if her parents really died unjustly, she would definitely not let it go.
But even she herself couldn't find a problem, so how could there really be no problem?
Gu Nianzhi replayed every word Lu Jin had said in her mind. She suddenly said, "By the way, where's the money from Qin Huichang and his wife selling the land?"
They passed away in a car accident right after they sold the land, leaving Qin Suwen, a minor child, to go to an orphanage. It was enough to prove that they had no other relatives in the country to help adopt Qin Suwen.
"Of course the money is for Su Wen." Lu Jin said without hesitation, "Later, the C City orphanage said that they wanted to treat Su Wen's injury, so they spent most of her fortune. There wasn't much left."
Gu Nianzhi, "…"
"This director is too black-hearted!" Gu Nianzhi was furious. "He's greedy for orphans' money! Aren't you afraid that his parents will look for him in the middle of the night to have a heart-to-heart talk? "
"If he was afraid, he wouldn't have coveted someone else's inheritance." Lu Jin scoffed and shook his head. "Nianzhi, you're also a lawyer. You should have seen the dark side of human nature more than others, right?"
Some people say that reporters are the ones who have seen the darkest side of society the most, while lawyers are the ones who have seen the darkest side of human nature the most, so their sympathy will gradually be worn away.
Perhaps it was because she was young, or perhaps it was just her personality, but Gu Nianzhi didn't think much of it. "Seeing doesn't mean you're used to it. Otherwise, what's the use of the law? The law is meant to punish the evil that happens in the dark side of society. "
Lu Jin looked at her with relief. "Nianzhi, you're doing very well. Don't become cynical just because you've seen too many dark sides. In fact, it's just like doing an experiment. At the beginning, there are many difficulties, but they are solved one by one. Slowly, the path becomes clear, and the dark sides become less and less. "
"I know." Gu Nianzhi smiled, her eyes crinkling.
From Huo Shaoheng and the other soldiers, Gu Nianzhi learned even more about the determination and faith to never give up.
They were using their lives to protect this country and its people. Would they give up just because there was a dark side?
Of course not.
There were those who lived in darkness but yearned for the light.
There were also those who faced darkness but believed that light would eventually dispel the darkness.
Huo Shaoheng silently listened to the father and daughter's irrelevant conversation. He quietly pulled the topic back and said calmly, "I feel that there's still a problem with this, but there should be a reason why Young Master He's mother didn't continue to investigate."
"What other reason could there be?" Gu Nianzhi frowned.
With the intuition of an excellent lawyer, she also felt that there was a problem, but even a big lawyer like Qin Suwen had given up. What other reason could there be?
Thinking about Qin Suwen's personality and personality, Gu Nianzhi asked doubtfully, "… Could it be because there's not enough evidence?"
As soon as she said this, she suddenly felt enlightened.
The thick fog in front of him seemed to be instantly illuminated by the sunlight, and he could vaguely see the hidden past that no one knew about.
"It really might be because there's not enough evidence!" Gu Nianzhi became excited. Her mind worked very quickly, and she quickly connected the dots with the things they had experienced.
"Look at this technique. Isn't it very similar to Wen Shouyi's trick?!" Gu Nianzhi turned to look at Huo Shaoheng and said excitedly, "Let's talk about the photo incident. We all thought that she was definitely the mastermind behind the scenes, but she actually had the ability to get away from the law!"
Qin Suwen was a big lawyer, so she was more law-abiding.
Without evidence, even if she had doubts, she wouldn't use the He family's power to harm Qin Baoye's family.
"Look at Auntie He. She must have had doubts about her parents' car accident, so she investigated it when she was an adult and had the ability to do so, right?" Gu Nianzhi looked at Lu Jin with bright eyes.
Lu Jin choked and was flabbergasted. "… Did Suwen really investigate her parents' car accident because she had doubts?"
"Is there another reason?" Gu Nianzhi asked seriously. "Then tell me, what's the real reason for Auntie He's investigation?"
Lu Jin looked away awkwardly. "She didn't say. I thought she just wanted to make up for her regrets."
"What regrets?" Huo Shaoheng asked sharply, not letting Lu Jin vaguely explain.
Lu Jin sighed. "She told the police herself that her parents' car accident was a drunk driver …"
Gu Nianzhi's dark jade-like eyes darted around, and she whispered, "Auntie He wasn't an adult at that time, so her words could be used as legal evidence? Didn't the police continue to investigate? "
"They still investigated, but they didn't find any other reasons. Moreover, there were no surveillance cameras at that time, and the witness's testimony and Suwen's words could corroborate each other. So in the end, the case was concluded to be a drunk driving accident, and it had nothing to do with anyone else."
If even their own daughter said so, what else was there to investigate?
Gu Nianzhi felt very bad and muttered, "But if Auntie He had been in the car at that time, wouldn't she have been scared silly? Would she have been able to testify clearly? When I saw the fire in the car, I broke down. It took me a long time to recover … It was difficult for me to say a complete sentence, let alone testify … "
She tried her best not to look at Huo Shaoheng, but Huo Shaoheng still reached out and gently patted her on the shoulder.
His palm was warm and had a great calming effect on Gu Nianzhi.
Lu Jin was stunned for a moment, and was attracted by Gu Nianzhi's words. He asked anxiously, "Did I really scare you?! Actually, my calculations were very precise. It wouldn't have hurt you! "
Even if no one had saved her at that time, Lu Jin would have extinguished the fire after sending her over.
The car would only have self-destructed if Gu Nianzhi had left it.
However, Gu Nianzhi didn't know all of this.
Hearing Lu Jin's words, Gu Nianzhi was both angry and amused. She said, "I was already 12 years old at that time, and I was so scared that I had to see a psychiatrist. Auntie He was even younger at that time, right? Was she really not scared? "
Lu Jin said awkwardly, "Maybe, but Su Wen is a very strong person. She won't be easily defeated."
He carefully recalled the situation at the time and said, "There was another reason why Su Wen stopped the investigation."
"What reason?" Gu Nianzhi and Huo Shaoheng asked in unison.
Lu Jin's gaze wandered between them for a while before he said, "… She was pregnant at the time, and in order to give birth to the child properly, she didn't continue the investigation."
Gu Nianzhi immediately understood and continued, "When the child was born, she realized that there was a problem, and Qin Yaoguang took the initiative to treat her son. How could she continue the investigation? Right? "
"How did you know?!" Lu Jin asked in surprise and gave her a thumbs up. "It was all deduced?! My girl is so smart! "
Gu Nianzhi: "…"
Huo Shaoheng curled his lips and smiled.
However, after Lu Jin said this, he didn't want to say anything else. He stood up and stretched. "I did the experiment last night and slept too late. I'm going to catch up on sleep now."
Huo Shaoheng watched Lu Jin's hurried back disappear at the door before he said softly, "… Your father is very familiar with Young Master He's mother?"
Gu Nianzhi thought about it. "… My father has always admired Auntie He, but I'm not sure if he's familiar with her. But it seems strange, but I can't tell what's so strange about it. "
She also had an intuition that there was something wrong, but she hadn't figured it out yet.
"… He used to keep a distance, but today, he directly called her 'Su Wen'. A man and a woman who aren't very familiar with each other wouldn't call each other by their names, right? "
Gu Nianzhi immediately understood and blinked at Huo Shaoheng. "That's true! Peter, you're amazing! "
Huo Shaoheng: "…"
Gu Nianzhi continued excitedly, "Also, if Auntie He was the one who investigated all of this, then it should be the contents of the file. Lawyers usually don't show their files to unrelated people, and they don't discuss the contents of the file with unfamiliar people. "
She spread her hands and sighed. "If only I could see Auntie He's file from back then."
Huo Shaoheng didn't want to remind Gu Nianzhi at all. She could look for He Zhichu to investigate this.
He quietly changed the topic and said, "Qin Yaoguang's case will be heard again next Monday. How do you plan to use the mother-daughter relationship between her and Wen Shouyi?"
