When Gu Nianzhi said this, although she was looking at the "friend" in front of her who was lying limply on the ground, she was observing Qin Baye, who was standing not far away, from the corner of her eye.
Qin Baye was held down by Peter and another "bodyguard". His eyes were tightly closed, and his brows were furrowed.
His face was lined with wrinkles, and he looked old.
His expression didn't change at all.
As expected, he was shrewd and wouldn't be easily angered.
Gu Nianzhi blinked and took another step forward. She knelt on one knee on the grass beside the man and looked down. She reached out to Lu Jin. "… Give me a pair of gloves."
Lu Jin understood instantly. He quickly took out a pair of transparent plastic gloves from his pocket and placed them in Gu Nianzhi's hand.
Gu Nianzhi slowly put on the gloves.
Lu Yuan was a little confused and asked softly, "… Why are you wearing gloves? Is she afraid of leaving fingerprints as evidence? "
Lu Jin put his hands in front of him and said with a smile, "… No, she thinks that man's hair is too dirty."
As expected, as soon as he finished speaking, Gu Nianzhi had already grabbed the man's hair and forced him to look up.
Lu Yuan: "…"
What a weird focus and brain circuit!
Indeed, like father like daughter!
He should stay away from the father and daughter.
Lu Yuan quietly took a step to the side.
Gu Nianzhi looked at the man's pale face in disgust and said coldly, "What are you afraid of? You haven't said anything yet, and you want to pretend to faint? Do you believe that I'll give you an injection so that you won't be able to close your eyes and sleep until you die? "
She didn't hit or scold the man, but this sentence alone was enough to make the man's heart filled with endless fear. His eyes were about to pop out of their sockets.
"What are you staring at? Are you saying that we've wronged you? " Gu Nianzhi tightened her grip on the man's hair. "Are you going to tell me how you convinced your old friend, Mr. Qin Huichang, to go from never agreeing to it?"
The man's scalp hurt a little, but it was completely bearable because no matter how strong Gu Nianzhi's grip was, it wasn't much. For an ordinary person, it was just the strength of a kitten scratching them.
He was just very afraid of the kind of medicine that Gu Nianzhi had said would "make you unable to close your eyes until you die" …
"Say it! If you don't want to tell me, do you want me to guess? "Gu Nianzhi let go, and the man's head fell to the ground with a thud.
Gu Nianzhi clapped her hands and stood up from the ground. She walked around the man and Qin Baye a few times before looking up at He Zhichu. "Young Master He, what did you find out?"
He Zhichu said casually, "He met Qin Baye because of business, and Qin Baye used him as a matchmaker to get to know my grandfather, Mr. Qin Huichang. Later, when we talked about the land in Z City, Qin Baoye expressed great interest and hoped that my grandfather would part with it, but my grandfather refused. "
"And then?" Gu Nianzhi asked.
"After that, Qin Baye invited my grandfather's family to Z City for a trip, and then signed a contract to sell the land there." He Zhichu's cold gaze landed on the back of his "friend" who was sprawled on the ground. He clenched his fists and wanted nothing more than to stomp on it.
"… After I came back, my grandfather's family was involved in a car accident. My mother survived, but she was badly burned. This guy knew that the car accident had something to do with the Qin family, but he didn't say a word, nor did he help my mother. He just stood by and watched. "
Gu Nianzhi smiled. "That's all?"
He Zhichu nodded. "That's all he said. There's no doubt that he hid a lot of the truth."
Of course, the man's evasive answer couldn't be hidden from He Zhichu.
However, no matter how much they interrogated him, the man insisted that he had told them everything he knew.
That was why they cooperated with Huo Shaoheng and rearranged their plans. They wanted to catch Qin Baye and Qin Yaoguang in one fell swoop and see what else this man could hide.
Gu Nianzhi thought about it and asked He Zhichu, "Then do you ask, or should I?"
He Zhichu could do it himself, but he wanted Gu Nianzhi to personally deal with these two people and help Qin Suwen.
He knew that this was very important to Gu Nianzhi.
Although he also wanted to personally seek justice for his mother, he still gave this opportunity to Gu Nianzhi.
He raised his hand. "You go first."
Gu Nianzhi nodded and walked back to the man's side. Once again, she knelt on one knee and twisted the man's ear with her plastic gloved hand. She pulled his head over and asked, "Then can you confirm that Qin Suwen and her parents' car accident was instigated by Qin Baye?"
The man nodded repeatedly, but his ear hurt from being pulled.
Gu Nianzhi let go and snorted. "Since Qin Suwen's father, Mr. Qin Huichang, had already signed the contract to sell the land, why did they still plan a car accident to kill his family?"
Qin Baye opened his eyes and said loudly, "He's lying! He has no evidence! That car accident had nothing to do with us! It was an accident! "
"Accident?" Gu Nianzhi turned to look at Qin Baye. She stood up from the ground and quickly walked to his side. "The other party didn't want to sell the land you wanted, but after a trip to Z City, he changed his mind and sold it to you."
"After selling the land, the family was immediately involved in a car accident. Almost the entire family died!"
"… Why are you so lucky? Are you the son of God? You want the light, and you get it? "Gu Nianzhi spat in Qin Baye's face." Why don't you look in the mirror and see if you deserve it?! "
The corners of Qin Baye's mouth twitched. He turned his head and chuckled. "Lawyer Gu, you are a lawyer. Don't make such a low-class move."
"My style is only given to people who deserve it. As for you, do you think you're worthy of talking about style with me? "
Gu Nianzhi took a step back. "Do you really think I can't figure out what happened?"
She turned around and looked back at the "old friend" who was still lying on the ground. She said coldly, "You said that Qin Baye got to know your old friend, Mr. Qin Huichang, through you. Then, you must know that Qin Baye wanted to buy the land but was rejected."
"And you actually didn't stand on the side of your friend, Qin Huichang's family. Instead, you stood on the side of Qin Baye, who you just met. This means that there must be a huge benefit for you to think that your friendship with Qin Huichang can't compare to this benefit."
Gu Nianzhi paused, then said, "We just investigated your relationship with Qin Huichang a few months ago. In fact, Qin Huichang is not only a friend to you, but also an appreciation. "
"You came to C City penniless to make a living. It was because you knew how to play Go that you met Mr. Qin Huichang."
"He treated you as a friend. Not only did he help you find a job, but he also helped you find a master to learn a trade."
"This skill not only allowed you to become a technical backbone in the factory that was difficult to enter, but you also worked on your own and earned your first pot of gold."
"But you weren't satisfied. You wanted to earn more money, and that's when Qin Baye found you."
"He had a plan, and you had ambition. The two of you hit it off and pinned your hopes of becoming rich on Qin Huichang's family."
As Gu Nianzhi spoke, she observed the expressions and movements of Qin Baye and this "friend". She paid special attention to their micro-expressions.
As expected, when Gu Nianzhi said, "You weren't satisfied. You wanted to earn more money," Qin Baye glanced at her and seemed to smile mockingly.
Obviously, this meant that she had guessed wrong on this point.
Gu Nianzhi's mind raced and she immediately said, "… No, you didn't want to earn more money, but you still needed money. This means that something happened to you at the time and you needed money. "
As soon as she said this, the "friend" couldn't help but raise his head and look at Gu Nianzhi with hatred. His gaze was like a poisonous snake that wanted nothing more than to spit out its tongue.
The corners of Gu Nianzhi's lips curled up slightly. "I guessed correctly."
"As for why you suddenly needed money, it's very simple. Either you were sick and needed expensive medical bills. But in that era, everything was very cheap, and medical bills were no exception. Even if you paid for it yourself, it wouldn't be much. So this doesn't make sense. "
"Then you owed someone a lot of money. And in that era, there was no stock market or usury, so it shouldn't be because of that. "
"Then it can only be because you secretly gambled and owed gambling debts!"
As soon as Gu Nianzhi finished speaking, Qin Baoye closed his eyes again.
Gu Nianzhi laughed. "Qin Baoye, why did you close your eyes? Worried that you'll reveal the secret in your heart again? "
"I can even speculate that the gambling debts of this' friend 'had something to do with you, Qin Baoye!"
The "friend" immediately turned to look at Qin Baoye and spoke for the first time. "… Qin Baoye, tell me the truth. When I gambled with those people, were you the one who set it up?!"
Qin Baoye closed his eyes tightly and didn't say a word.
Gu Nianzhi clapped her hands and laughed. "… Not saying anything? That's tacit agreement. "
Qin Baoye was so angry that his liver hurt. He opened his eyes abruptly. "How is not saying anything a tacit agreement?! Not saying anything is obviously denying it! I didn't even know him when he owed gambling debts! How did you set it up?! "
"Ha, denying that his gambling debts had something to do with you? Don't even think about taking advantage of it. " Gu Nianzhi squatted down again confidently and pointed at Qin Baoye. She said to the "friend", "Do you believe that he set you up first?"
The man's gaze wandered, and he was at a loss.
He said in a hoarse voice, "… I really want to believe you, but you don't have any evidence to make me believe you."
"I don't have evidence?" Gu Nianzhi rolled her eyes and walked over to Qin Yaoguang, who was lying on the makeshift stretcher. She pointed at her face and said, "… This is the evidence."
The man propped himself up from the ground and slowly sat up.
He looked at the motionless Qin Yaoguang in confusion. "Where's the evidence?"
"Here." Gu Nianzhi poked Qin Yaoguang's face with her finger. "Did you know that her face had plastic surgery?"
The man's eyes flashed twice, then he pretended to be shocked. "Really?! How did you know?! I couldn't tell at all! "
Gu Nianzhi rolled her eyes. "Alright, stop acting. You're overacting. It's too fake."
"You clearly know what lawyer Qin Suwen looked like when she was a child. How could you not know that Qin Yaoguang had plastic surgery?" Gu Nianzhi pointed out.
He Chengjian's body trembled. This was the first time he had heard something related to Qin Suwen's appearance when she was a child. He couldn't help but ask, "What does Suwen's appearance when she was a child have to do with Qin Yaoguang's plastic surgery?!"
He Zhichu stood expressionlessly in the morning light, but he had one hand in his trouser pocket, tightly gripping a photo. It was the family photo that Qin Suwen had taken with her parents when she was a child.
For various reasons, he had never shown this photo to He Chengjian.
