55. Chapter 55

"The victim in this case is a ten-year-old boy named Xiaojun, a primary school student. Two months ago, when the family's driver was picking up Xiaojun to go home from school, there was a car accident. The driver was not seriously injured, but Xiaojun's leg was injured.

I need amputation."

"Amputation? Is it so serious? Has the child been discharged from the hospital?"

"Not yet. Xiaojun's mother's name is Yang Zhi. She suspects that the accident was not an accident. Someone deliberately wanted to harm Xiaojun. The suspect is her love rival Bai Qiu. I am the defense lawyer appointed by Yang Zhi, so I have been investigating recently.

Bai Qiu."

Zhaozhao sweated, "Bai Qiu is her love rival? The one who destroyed her family?"

"It probably hasn't reached that point yet, but... Yang Zhi's husband Chen Zhiwen likes Bai Qiu very much and often goes to hear her sing. But some people say they are just friends."

Zhaozhao added, "Bai Qiu didn't do this, right? She has always been a kind person, how could she do such a thing to a child?"

Cheng Yu said, "We only talk about evidence, not intuition. Based on the existing clues, Bai Qiu is very likely to be the murderer. But since you have a complicated relationship with Bai Qiu, it is best when we discuss the case later.

I want to avoid suspicion and can’t participate, you know?”

"You made a date with Bai Qiu?"

"No, I'm dating Yang Zhi's husband. He has been staying in Liuchuan District every day recently in order to support Bai Qiu."

Zhaozhao nodded, "I understand."

According to Cheng Yu's description, that Bai Qiu is similar to her mother Xu Jingbai in many ways. Could this woman... be her mother? Is her mother still alive?

Zhao Zhao looked at her palms, sweating again... Her whole body was tense, and an unexpected hope arose in her despair - she began to feel nervous again.

"I still have to go to the office to prepare some information. It will take about two hours. Can you take a break? Do you want to go up with me or wait for me in the car?"

Zhao Zhao checked the time. It was 6:30. She had not slept all night, and now all the sleepyheads came to collect debts. So she said, "I want to sleep in the car for a while."

Cheng Yu got out of the car and handed her a thick blanket.

When she woke up again, Cheng Yu called her. She subconsciously looked at the time. It was 8:40. She had slept for more than two hours.

The car stopped at a well-known snack bar in Liuchuan District, and Cheng Yu introduced her to the delicious fried dumplings here.

Zhao Zhao had no appetite at all. Cheng Yu naturally understood and ordered her a bowl of soy milk. He also said, "Take a sip. I guarantee you will want a second sip after the first sip, and you will want a second sip after the second sip."

I wanted to take a third sip and took a third sip..."

In order to stop him from continuing, Zhaozhao decisively picked it up and took a sip. It tasted really good.

"Do you believe me now?" Cheng Yu said confidently, "If you take another bite of the fried dumplings, the taste will be unparalleled, making you feel as if you are flying in the clouds."

I would like to ask what kind of fried dumplings can give people an ecstasy of pleasure? Zhaozhao took a bite under his temptation. Sure enough, the taste was fresh and tender, the fragrance lasted for a long time, and it was very delicious.

Zhaozhao nodded, smiled brightly, and gave him a thumbs up.

"My girl, it's really hard to make you smile once. From the moment I saw you this morning to now, you've been keeping a straight face, and my whole life has become cloudy."

"Are you a lawyer? Why are you speaking so sourly?"
