Chapter 570: Who Dares?!
Death sentence? This is too serious!
Xue Xi widened her eyes. “But Fang Fang has given herself up. Moreover, she really didn’t kill anyone on purpose!”
Just as she said this, a cold voice sounded. “Surrender? That’s because she was caught and had nowhere to run, right? As for what you said, it wasn’t intentional?
“According to what I know, Water had stolen the key to the door lock of the rooftop. Yu Da had then lured her to the rooftop, and Fang Fang had brought her outside and pushed her down. This is a completely premeditated murder by an organization! In what way did they not do it on purpose?”
Following this, a man in a blue uniform walked over. He had thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a square face. With one look, one could tell that he was square and upright. Of course, such people did not know how to be accommodating.
On his uniform was a sign: P9.
He was actually on the same level as Little Pigeon!
Jing Fei introduced him to her. “This is a colleague from our court department. His name is Zheng Zhi. He is very strict and does things according to the law. He does things according to the rules and regulations and never favors anyone or flouts the law. He also doesn’t care about favors. Everyone calls him the black-faced judge.”
When Zheng Zhi heard this, his squarish face did not show any anger. He only harrumphed and clearly did not look easy to get along with.
Xue Xi continued, “But she thought that she killed a bad person! She misunderstood!”
Zheng Zhi sneered. “Other than those who have committed heinous crimes, which murderer would kill someone for no reason? Fang Fang might have misunderstood, but how innocent is the person who was killed?”
After saying that, Zheng Zhi instructed Jing Fei, “She will be sentenced in the special court tomorrow.”
After the sentence was given, the death penalty would be carried out!
Zheng Zhi did not even have the intention to speak to Xue Xi before leaving.
Jing Fei scratched his head and felt a little awkward. “Sister Xi, he’s not in the same department as us. I can’t control him either. Moreover, when an esper commits a crime, his punishment will indeed be one level worse than punishments given to an ordinary person. Sigh, if only Fang Fang really surrendered herself!”
Xue Xi clenched her jaw as well as her fists.
She turned around and looked into the distance.
Fang Fang was still sitting in the interrogation room. There was a transparent glass door between them, and Fang Fang was alone inside. She was hugging her knees and was curled up into a ball on the chair. She looked as though she had been abandoned by the world.
Her small body trembled slightly. She must have heard Zheng Zhi’s words.
Xue Xi took a deep breath and felt that her mind was in a mess. She slowly said, “Little Pigeon, I need to borrow your office.”
She had to think carefully about the cause and effect of the entire matter and find out what exactly was wrong!
Jing Fei nodded. “Okay.”
...
...
When Gu Yunqing was brought to the special department’s lounge by two special department staff, she was already on her last breath.
Her entire body was aching so much that she could not stand up. However, Xue Xi did not kill anyone. Other than the pain, she did not break an arm or leg.
Her addiction kicked in again and the sore spots became worse.
She trembled as she stood up and took out the bottle of drink from her bag. After taking a few mouthfuls, the discomfort on her body slowly disappeared.
Even the pain from being beaten up by Xue Xi was reduced a lot.
Gu Yunqing lay down and rested for a while. When she finally caught her breath, she recalled that her efforts at the orphanage today had been in vain. Thinking of Xue Xi’s casual beating, she instantly clenched her fists.
I can’t take this lying down!
She suddenly sat up. The bruises on her body were very obvious. If not for the milk beverage, she would probably be unable to stand up from the pain.
Thinking about it this way, that thing still had some use.
Gu Yunqing drank two more mouthfuls. When her body became even lighter, she stood up and walked out.
She arrived at the door and greeted the staff first, then inquired about the progress of the case. When she heard that a righteous judge had arrived, Gu Yunqing’s eyes flickered.
She strolled around the Special Department and finally entered Zheng Zhi’s office...
...
...
Jing Fei secretly observed everything and then called Xiang Huai.
Xiang Huai had just sent Xue Xi over. As he still had some other matters to settle, he left first and did not hear Zheng Zhi’s words.
After Jing Fei conveyed the man’s words, he continued, “Zheng Zhi is like that. He abides by the rules and doesn’t make any allowances. Even if he knows that Sister Xi is your girlfriend, he probably won’t make an exception. Boss, why don’t I hint at Sister Xi’s identity?”
Xiang Huai sneered. “Who said that he doesn’t know?”
Jing Fei: “?”
He was stunned. “He knows? If he knows, why is he doing this? I understand. Is he targeting Sister Xi on purpose? But Sister Xi didn’t offend him! Could it be because... F*ck! This fool is being stubborn again!”
Xiang Huai: “Mhm.”
Jing Fei: “Boss, we’re already in a mess. Sister Xi is probably in a terrible fix right now. Why aren’t you anxious at all?”
Xiang Huai slowly said, “No hurry.”
Jing Fei: “...But Zheng Zhi has a bad temper. He is cold to Sister Xi and is naturally hostile to her. Aren’t you angry?”
Xiang Huai: “I’m angry.”
Jing Fei: “?”
Xiang Huai’s tone turned solemn. “But if I press Zheng Zhi down, even if he looks on the surface like he’s submitted, he won’t feel that way in his heart. I can use this chance to let him know the little kid’s prowess so he’d accept it wholeheartedly.”
Jing Fei: “...”
Boss, just do as you wish. When you lose Sister-in-law, I’ll watch you cry!
...
...
In Jing Fei’s office, Xue Xi was holding a pen and paper as she quickly calculated something. After she wrote something, she randomly applied it.
She suddenly stood up and walked toward the interrogation room where Fang Fang was.
However, just as she reached the door, she saw Zheng Zhi and Gu Yunqing guarding it. When they saw Xue Xi, Gu Yunqing hurriedly looked at Zheng Zhi and said, “Look, I knew it. She definitely came!”
Xue Xi: “?”
She lowered her head and slowly said, “I’m here to interrogate Fang Fang. Is there a problem?”
Zheng Zhi immediately said, “Although you’re a P4 and belong to the special department, and you do have the right to interfere in this case, I heard that you were once a member of that club! Hence, according to the rules, in order to avoid suspicion, you’re not allowed to participate in this case!”
Xue Xi: “What if I must participate?”
Zheng Zhi’s expression was cold. He looked to be in his twenties or thirties, but his attitude and actions made him look like he was in his seventies or eighties. His every move seemed to be measured and very rigid.
He stood up and was half a head taller than Xue Xi. He said coldly, “Then I can use that as an excuse to kick you out of the special department!”
Just as he said this, a familiar voice sounded. “Who dares?!”
