Genetic defects could be serious or minor. Sometimes, the missing genes weren't that important. They might not show up in their entire lives, and there wouldn't be any symptoms.
But sometimes, if the missing genes were important, it would have an important impact on the health of the person who was missing the genes.
He Zhichu was very unfortunate. He was missing some important genes, so he had been weak and sickly since he was young. He was even diagnosed that he wouldn't live to the age of 16.
However, after Qin Yaoguang proposed the "gene editing" treatment, she used her and Gu Xiangwen's daughter, Gu Nianzhi, to completely cure He Zhichu's genetic defect, allowing him to successfully live past the age of 16.
He Chengjian thought of how grateful he and Qin Suwen were to Qin Yaoguang and felt that he had been blind!
He glared at Qin Yaoguang and Qin Baye. If his gaze could skin them, he would have skinned them to the point where only their skeletons were left!
Gu Nianzhi glanced at He Chengjian's expression and nodded slightly. She knew that her words had worked.
She breathed a sigh of relief and looked up at the dark cameras, live broadcast equipment, and the reporters who were so excited that they wanted to see the world in chaos. She made the connection between the Lohler Group and the Qin family's orphanage.
The reason why this trial was being broadcasted live to the entire world was to shut the mouths of the US Congress, and also to expose their unspeakable conspiracy under the "human rights white paper".
Gu Nianzhi's eyes suddenly lit up like the morning stars.
She said with a pained expression, "A while ago, the American Lohler Corporation had a huge scandal in orphanages all over the world. That was their real goal. They used these orphans who had no parents to support them and no family to support them for human genetic experiments!"
This scandal was still fresh in many people's memories.
Firstly, it hadn't been that long, and secondly, the Lohler Corporation's stock price had fluctuated like a roller coaster. It was an eye-opener for people all over the world.
Now that she mentioned it, many people remembered.
Gu Nianzhi continued, "Let's talk about this case. When Lawyer Qin Suwen was a teenager, she had plastic surgery after a burn. Even her genes were infected by a virus. Doesn't this seem familiar to everyone?"
"Why? Because the Qin orphanage has had a close relationship with the Lohler Corporation since before the founding of the People's Republic! "
Gu Nianzhi dropped this bombshell.
The entire Internet was in an uproar again.
[F * ck! It's terrifying to think about it!]
[No way? Is the Rohrer Group's reach really that far?]
[Hehe, previous poster, you're too naive. Go look for Lorraine the Third yourself. What does he have to do with our country …]
However, Gu Nianzhi didn't explicitly state the relationship between Lorraine III and our country's open-door policy in court. She only focused on the relationship between the Lorraine Group and the Qin Orphanage.
She connected her laptop and typed out more evidence. They were newspaper, magazine, and TV news clips from decades ago.
"Everyone, please take a look. Back then, among the doctors who performed plastic surgery on Lawyer Qin Suwen, there were two foreign experts. They were funded by the Lohler Group Charity Fund."
"And all the funds for Lawyer Qin Suwen's plastic surgery after her burn were donated by the Qin Orphanage. Because of this, the Qin Orphanage's reputation in society was very high. "
"When the Qin family's orphanage controlled the progress of the entire surgery, from the funds to the manpower, it goes without saying what they did to the young lawyer, Qin Suwen."
Gu Nianzhi's only regret was that there were no surveillance cameras in the operating room during that era, so there were no recordings of the surgery.
Otherwise, the other party's tricks would have been exposed to the world long ago.
But it wasn't too late now. With her around, even if there were no surveillance cameras, she would restore it.
Qin Yaoguang's defense lawyer, Lu Anpeng, immediately raised his hand and retorted again, "Objection! What happened when Qin Suwen was eight years old has nothing to do with my client! The prosecution lawyer can't blame everything on my client, Ms. Qin Yaoguang! "
"Nothing to do with it?" Gu Nianzhi didn't wait for the judge to speak. She took a step forward and stood opposite Lu Anpeng. She asked calmly, "The cause of Lawyer Qin Suwen's sudden death was the so-called 'congenital heart disease'. Now we have proven that her congenital heart disease wasn't innate, but acquired after the Qin Corporation used a virus to infect her genes under the guise of plastic surgery!"
"This ticking time bomb was planted decades ago. Lawyer Lu, you're telling me now that it has nothing to do with your client? Do you dare say that your client doesn't know about these past events?! "
Lu Anpeng waved his arms and insisted, "You have no evidence! This is all speculation! My client didn't have the time to murder Qin Suwen! "
Gu Nianzhi immediately retorted, "Since you've already admitted that your client, Qin Yaoguang, had the motive and means to murder Qin Suwen, then let's now prove that Qin Yaoguang had the time to do it."
"What time? I've already proven that when Lawyer Qin Suwen died, my client, Ms. Qin Yaoguang, was attending an international conference on biological and genetic science in Hawaii! "Lu Anpeng retorted calmly," Just this one point alone makes all your evidence invalid! "
"In a murder case, motive and means aren't the most important. The most important thing is whether there was a chance to actually commit the murder. If this point isn't valid, then nothing else is valid. "
"Also, I didn't admit that my client, Ms. Qin Yaoguang, had the motive and means to commit the murder. Don't add to the drama."
Lu Anpeng turned to look at the audience in the courtroom and spoke confidently, "Each of us has a dark place in our hearts, and we also have a flash of resentment towards others. This is the most primitive motive. But most people only think about it and don't do it, so it doesn't constitute a motive for murder. "
"Whether it constitutes a motive or not depends on whether she has any follow-up actions." Gu Nianzhi rolled her eyes at Lu Anpeng.
She slowly walked to Qin Yaoguang's dock and stood up straight. She looked down at the pale Qin Yaoguang and said, "Ms. Qin Yaoguang, you were attending an international biomedical conference in Hawaii, weren't you?"
Qin Yaoguang glanced at Lu Anpeng.
Gu Nianzhi was impatient. She tapped her finger on the table of Qin Yaoguang's dock. "What's so shameful about this small question? You still have to look at your defense lawyer to answer? Could it be that your meeting minutes are also fake? "
Based on Qin Yaoguang's stubborn personality, she would have argued with Gu Nianzhi at all costs.
However, this time, Lu Anpeng had displayed abilities that were almost on par with Gu Nianzhi's. Therefore, Qin Yaoguang, who was "muddle-headed", admired Lu Anpeng from the bottom of her heart. She obeyed his every word, afraid that she would say the wrong thing and lose everything.
Lu Anpeng gestured at Qin Yaoguang, indicating for her to answer Gu Nianzhi's question. She said to Gu Nianzhi unhappily, "Please don't mentally oppress my client and affect my client's thinking and memory."
Gu Nianzhi snorted and sneered without turning her head, "The defendant's lawyer thinks too highly of your client. Do you really think your client is a person with interpersonal disorder who doesn't care about what's going on outside and only cares about doing experiments?"
Lu Jin, who was sitting in the gallery, suddenly felt his knees hurt.
The corners of Lu Yuan's lips curled up slightly. He looked back and silently mouthed to Lu Jin, "… You deserve it."
Lu Jin: "…"
Lu Anpeng frowned. "There was nothing that couldn't be said at the international conference back then, but the prosecution lawyer, can you be nicer to my client? After all, she's your biological mother."
Biological mother?
Gu Nianzhi's emotions were in turmoil. She clenched her fists and continued to look at Qin Yaoguang. "Now that your defense lawyer says you can speak, can you answer my question?"
Qin Yaoguang was relieved to receive Lu Anpeng's permission. Moreover, she was indeed attending an international conference in Hawaii, so there was nothing she couldn't say. She glared at Gu Nianzhi and nodded. "Yes, I was attending an international conference in Hawaii."
"Then did the Hawaiian hotel where you attended the conference not have a phone or Internet?" Gu Nianzhi seemed to ask casually.
"How is that possible?" Qin Yaoguang's eyes widened, and her lips parted. She asked in disbelief, "Hawaii isn't an isolated island! And that was only 12 years ago. The Internet had already appeared, but not many people used it, but it was already very common in the United States. As for the phone, how could there not be a phone in a five-star hotel? Miss Gu, do you know what you're talking about? "
Gu Nianzhi nodded. "Please call me the prosecution lawyer, thank you."
She turned around and returned to her plaintiff's stand. She opened a file on her laptop and said, "This is a phone record we got from our country's telecommunications bureau."
"To be precise, it's a phone record from 12 years ago when Ms. Qin Yaoguang was attending an international conference in Hawaii."
"Let's see who you've called!"
"First of all, the phone number that appeared the most frequently was a phone number from the He residence."
Gu Nianzhi showed a phone number with the middle few digits blacked out because He Chengjian's number couldn't be made public.
She pointed at the phone number that had been blacked out in the middle and said mockingly, "Ms. Qin Yaoguang, you only attended a three-day conference in Hawaii, and you made 36 calls to General He Chengjian!"
"On average, you made 12 calls a day!"
"Although each call didn't last long, what were your intentions in tirelessly calling someone else's husband?!"
