Gu Nianzhi actually wanted to help them, but she knew their work was highly confidential and there were many things she couldn't know just because she wanted to.
In order not to cause them trouble, she usually didn't take the initiative to suggest anything unless they asked for her help.
It was the same this time, so she knew it wasn't against the rules.
Walking in with a tray with three cups of coffee, Gu Nianzhi asked with a smile, "What case are you guys discussing? Can I know? "
"Of course, you're one of the parties involved, so it's fine for you to know." Yin Shixiong asked her to sit between him and Zhao Liangze, and told her about Xu Piaohong's leak and Yamaguchi Aiko's involvement, including Miao Yunxiao and Dou Aiyan's arguments.
"… That's how it is. We're willing to believe Miao Yunxiao's words, and everyone knows there's something wrong with Dou Aiyan, but … "Zhao Liangze didn't finish before Gu Nianzhi continued," But because Miao Yunxiao doesn't have any evidence, the court can't do anything to Dou Aiyan just based on her side of the story, right? "
"Yes, it's so easy to talk to people who understand." Zhao Liangze patted her shoulder with a smile, "Even we can't do anything since we don't have a valid reason."
The law was about evidence, and evidence was divided into witnesses and material evidence.
Witnesses needed an independent third party witness who had no stake in the case to be effective.
Miao Yunxiao was one of the parties involved, so she couldn't be a witness. Even her immediate family couldn't be a witness, because from a legal perspective, the immediate family of the parties involved didn't have independent status.
Gu Nianzhi nodded, "Whoever reports will have to provide evidence. If she doesn't have any other evidence and only has her words, then it's not a good idea to do anything to Dou Aiyan."
Miao Yunxiao also had a history of lying, so her words were even less credible in court, at least much less than Dou Aiyan's.
"Fine, you can't do anything either?" Yin Shixiong spread his hands and shook his head regretfully, "I thought our genius girl had a good plan!"
"Get out! Don't give Nianzhi more pressure. "Zhao Liangze kicked Yin Shixiong's leg, but with Gu Nianzhi sitting between them, he had a hard time kicking.
Huo Shaoheng sat across from them and said to Gu Nianzhi, "Nianzhi, come here. You're getting in the way of Big Xiong and Little Ze."
Gu Nianzhi looked at the blushing Yin Shixiong, then at the embarrassed Zhao Liangze. She pursed her lips into a smile and walked to Huo Shaoheng's side to sit down.
One was tall and handsome, like a deep abyss and a towering mountain, while the other was beautiful and charming, like a little bird. The two of them sat together. Although there was a difference in age, their aura matched each other perfectly.
Yin Shixiong and Zhao Liangze felt as if they had been blinded by the beauty in front of them.
The two of them closed their eyes at the same time.
Gu Nianzhi pretended not to see their conflicted expressions and smiled. "Of course there is a way, if Miao Yunxiao isn't lying."
"… You're saying that Miao Yunxiao might be lying?" Yin Shixiong was stunned. He hadn't considered this possibility at all.
"I'm just talking about one possibility. In the absence of evidence from a third party, anything is possible." Gu Nianzhi turned to look at the side of Huo Shaoheng's face. He didn't meet her gaze and just sat quietly next to her. His expression was calm and composed. It was impossible to tell what he was thinking.
Gu Nianzhi sighed inwardly and looked away. She looked at Yin Shixiong and Zhao Liangze sitting across from her and continued, "If we exclude the possibility that Miao Yunxiao is lying, then what we need to do is help her find evidence from a third party."
"How? She doesn't have any evidence herself and only remembers talking to Dou Aiyan once. "Zhao Liangze frowned." She doesn't even remember when she said it. "
Gu Nianzhi sat up in surprise. "Oh? Really? Then Miao Yunxiao shouldn't be lying. Dou Aiyan really did talk to her. "
If she was purposely trying to frame Dou Aiyan, the lie would have been more convincing.
Because it was the truth, she didn't put in any effort to explain the cause and effect.
"It's useless for us to believe it. The key is for the law to believe it as well." Huo Shaoheng finally spoke. His eyes swept over Gu Nianzhi's head and stopped on the coffee table in front of him.
Gu Nianzhi noticed from the corner of her eye that Huo Shaoheng was finally looking at her. Her heart was filled with joy and her earlier frustration was swept away. She quickly flipped through Miao Yunxiao's statement that Yin Shixiong had given her. She said excitedly, "I've always believed that as long as something has happened, there must be evidence left behind. The key is whether you can find it or not."
"How? Didn't you want us to interrogate all the students at B University and see if anyone remembers this meeting? " Yin Shixiong snorted. "I think we've already thought about your idea, but it wasn't feasible, so we gave up."
"Also, Miao Yunxiao not only has to prove that she met Dou Aiyan, but also that Dou Aiyan introduced Yamaguchi Aiko to her. So even if you can prove the first point, what about the second? I think even if we catch Yamaguchi Aiko, as long as the other party insists that it has nothing to do with Dou Aiyan, you still won't be able to prove it, right? " Zhao Liangze's finger tapped on the statement. "So it's indeed very complicated. Since the other party deliberately planned this, they would be very careful not to leave behind any objective evidence."
"Yes, they're purposely trying to disgust us. We clearly know what's going on, but we can't prove it legally. "Yin Shixiong said as he angrily punched the coffee table.
The three cups of coffee on the coffee table shook slightly from the punch and spilled coffee.
Zhao Liangze kicked Yin Shixiong again. "Go get a tissue to wipe the table."
Yin Shixiong smiled sheepishly as he got up to find a thick, absorbent tissue to wipe the coffee stains.
Gu Nianzhi also helped him wipe the coffee table as she began to think quickly. "I think we have two ways to solve this problem at the same time."
"Two ways?!" Yin Shixiong's eyes widened as he stopped wiping the table. "You have two ways in the blink of an eye?! You're a genius girl indeed! Nianzhi, I take back what I just said. You're still my idol! "
"Get out! Big Xiong, your words are getting more and more disgusting. " Zhao Liangze couldn't take it anymore and pushed Yin Shixiong away to wipe the table with Gu Nianzhi. He put on a flattering smile and said to Gu Nianzhi, "Nianzhi, hurry up and tell us. Ignore that asshole Big Xiong."
Gu Nianzhi smiled as she watched Yin Shixiong and Zhao Liangze joking around. She threw the dirty tissue into the bin and sat up. "The first way is to find direct third-party evidence. I saw Miao Yunxiao say that she met Dou Aiyan by the lake one Thursday afternoon after her Advanced English class. "
"Yes, the famous lake at B University. But so what? Because it's famous, there are many tourists and students there. How do you think we're going to find evidence? " Yin Shixiong panicked again. "Jin Wanyi came to me a few times and said that Xu Piaohong was dragged down by Miao Yunxiao."
Gu Nianzhi looked at Yin Shixiong again. "Brother Xiong, you're quite close with Lawyer Jin …"
"Ok, stop making wild guesses and get to the point." Yin Shixiong waved his hand in front of her eyes to interrupt her inquisitive gaze and urged her to tell him her plan.
Gu Nianzhi's slender, fair fingers tapped on the confession material and pointed to this paragraph. "If I remember correctly, there are cameras installed around the lake. We just need to pull up the footage from that day and check it. If we can find footage of Miao Yunxiao and Dou Aiyan talking together, then we can prove that Dou Aiyan is lying. "
"… Are you sure the cameras around the lake can cover the entire area?" Zhao Liangze was excited. "But we can try."
Huo Shaoheng nodded slightly. "Yes, but …" Huo Shaoheng thought further. "If there are cameras like that around the lake, why didn't anyone tell us about it before?"
Because Miao Yunxiao's statement was related to Prime Minister Dou's daughter, the military had sent people to B University to investigate the situation. However, no one mentioned it.
Gu Nianzhi's heart sank. "You've already sent people to ask?"
"Yes, of course. It's standard procedure. What's wrong? Is there a problem? " Huo Shaoheng noticed the change in Gu Nianzhi's expression and thought of a possibility. "… You're saying that the footage might have been deleted?"
"Maybe we're already too late. That's why they're not afraid. " Gu Nianzhi sighed deeply. "It's okay. We can start with the second method, but we have to continue with the first one."
"What do you want to do?"
