Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
After the lawyer left, the police went to interrogate Huo Weichen once. The confession they got was no different from what the lavvyer got. Huo Weichen claimed that he had intended to use force, but he fainted before he could do it.
From Huo Weichen’s confession, the police obtained important information. First, Huo Weichen admitted that he had intended to rape her. Then, according to the surveillance footage, he had taken action. In addition, semen was extracted from Fu Lizhen’s body. Therefore, the crime of rape was established. This was confirmed, and there was no longer any dispute.
What was controversial now was that Huo Weichen had deliberately hurt Fu
Lizhen during the process of violating her, and he had caused serious injuries. In terms of the standard of sentencing, it resulted in a world of difference. On this point, Huo Weichen and Fu Lizhen’s confessions completely contradicted each other. Huo Weichen used the excuse of fainting to avoid the matter completely, while Fu Lizhen insisted that Huo Weichen was violent and could reconstruct most of the scenes at that time.
According to the existing physical evidence, there was a high chance that Huo Weichen would be charged with intentional assault. However, there was a new suspicion that Huo Weichen had drugged Fu Lizhen’s coffee. The source of the drug could not be verified.
Huo Weichen denied that he had drugged her. As the victim, Fu Lizhen could not possibly know where the drug came from. Therefore, the police targeted the people who had contact with Huo Weichen. The first person they went to was Xiao Xin.
When Xiao Xin heard about the drug, her expression changed, but she firmly denied that she was in cahoots with Huo Weichen.
The police did not force an answer out of her. They got up and left after asking a few questions. When Xiao Xin sneakily went out to take out the trash, the police came out from the corridor and grabbed Xiao Xin, who was guilty. They took the trash bag from her hand and found a white glass bottle inside. “Miss Feng, it seems that you have to come with us.”
The police brought Xiao Xin back to the police station for interrogation, scaring Xiao Xin quite a bit. After verification by the police, the contents of Xiao Xin’s glass bottle were the same as the drugs in Fu Lizhen’s body.
“Miss Feng, are you still not going to explain? You and Huo Weichen schemed against Fu Lizhen together.”
“It’s not like that, it’s not!” Xiao Xin immediately denied, “I admit, I was the one who went to get this thing, but it was at Young Master Huo’s request and I went to the address he gave me. He said that it would make people feel excited and light-headed when doing that kind of thing. He used it on me before, but I didn’t know that he used it to drug Lizhen. Police officers, you must investigate clearly.”
“You really don’t know that this thing is illegal?”
“I don’t know. He only said that it was a normal s*x aid. I only found out when you mentioned it to me just now, so I was very afraid.” Xiao Xin explained, “If you don’t believe me, you can look at our chat records. He gave me the address to pick up the goods. I’m only responsible for picking up the goods.” “What else do you know?”
“I really don’t know anything else. I’m just a working girl, and a rich young master took a fancy to me. I didn’t dare to resist. Besides, I did like the tips he gave me, but I never had any evil intentions.”
The police verified Huo Weichen and Xiao Xin’s chat history, which was full of flirting and evidence of Huo Weichen asking Xiao Xin to go get something.
“Officer, I won’t be sentenced, right? I’m really innocent…” Xiao Xin started crying, feeling wronged. She pleaded, “My Grandma is waiting for me to earn money to save her life. I beg you, you must prove my innocence.”
“Alright, we already understand your situation. As long as you testify properly, the law will give you a proper result.”
Now that they had the source of the medicine, what shocked the police even more was that the place where Huo Weichen asked Xiao Xin to get the medicine was the smuggling warehouse that had been destroyed by the fire in Jinzhou. Some people had taken photos of Huo Weichen appearing near the warehouse, but because the police had not found the person in charge of the warehouse, the clues were cut off. However, now, the answer to some of the things might be right in front of them.
In just one day, Huo Weichen’s case had progressed rapidly. The police had now filled in a few suspicious points from before. The scariest thing right now was that Huo Weichen’s smuggling case had also been implicated. Sometimes, one had to admire the police’s ability to follow clues. In addition, Huo Shengyuan was handling this matter, so when Huo Shengyuan’s lawyer learned of these developments, he was alarmed.
If they continued to investigate, Huo Weichen would probably implicate more people. At that time, there would really be no end to it.
The hospital at night seemed cold and scary. Occasionally, a few cleaners pushing a cleaning cart would pass by. After looking into the ward, they would slowly walk away.Visit no(v)eLb(i)n.𝘤𝑜𝓂 for the best novel reading experience
At this late hour, an old forensic doctor went to the hospital to visit Fu Lizhen.
The old forensic doctor was about to retire. Although he was not in charge of Fu Lizhen’s case, he had read the entire case file. The reason why he came to the hospital so late was because he had some questions.
“Master, why are you here?” Fu Lizhen was much better than during the day. Although her face was still pale, her condition had stabilized.
“My little disciple has encountered such a thing. Of course, I have to come and take a look.” The old forensic doctor sat down beside Fu Lizhen. Then, he said, “Lizhen…”
The old forensic doctor glanced at Fu Lizhen and made sure that there was no one else around. Then, he said softly, “Master has been a forensic doctor for his entire life. I can solve these cases even with my eyes closed. I was wondering why you wanted to acknowledge me as your master back then. So, this is what
you meant.”
After hearing the old forensic doctor’s words, Fu Lizhen’s eyes widened in shock because she knew very well that the old forensic doctor had seen through her tricks.
Fake things were always fake. Even if the scene was perfectly replicated, there would still be flaws.
“Master, I…”
However, the old forensic doctor stopped her from speaking. He continued, “Your master has been a forensic doctor for more than forty years. I have lived up to my conscience. However, when one is old, sometimes, one will have some selfish motives. I know why you’ve come to this stage. Child, you’ve suffered in this world.”
Fu Lizhen didn’t say anything, but her eyes were instantly filled with tears. After so many years of enduring humiliation, she had never told anyone that her life had been destroyed by a piece of trash that night.
Trash only used the words ‘popping her cherry’ to describe his outrageous behavior, and he even bragged about it unscrupulously. Therefore, Fu Lizhen hated him so much that she had to make Huo Weichen pay ten times the price.
“Don’t worry. Master will do as you wish. If there’s any retribution in the future, come find me. Master is already old and has long seen through life and death. My wife and I have nothing to worry about. Master only has one wish. After this matter is over, start anew. Be an honest and kind person. Don’t let down the good intentions that my wife and I have for you..”
