Chapter 48 Trial
◎Revenge
"The verdict on your parents' case will be announced in the Interstellar Court tomorrow morning. Do you want me to pick you up?"
Qin Shu was stunned when she heard this. It wasn't that she had forgotten this important day, but she was suddenly a little dazed.
Maybe for other people, this incident seems to have happened only a few years ago, but for Qin Shu, it happened a long, long time ago.
She had been in the fast-travel world for so long, so long that sometimes she had to try hard to recall some small things in the past, such as the family's dinner, her mother's nagging, and her father's doting. These warm daily moments became increasingly blurred.
So, when she heard that the matter had finally come to an end, she suddenly felt a little empty in her heart.
"Okay." Qin Shu was distracted for a moment before she responded softly.
It's not that she hasn't thought about killing Qin Yue and her entire family, but that would be too easy for them. She wants them to clear her parents' names, be cursed by everyone, watch them lose everything, and then watch her step on their heads. Then - it will be time for reckoning.
Death is so easy.
She wants them to live a life worse than death!
…
The next day, it rained.
Qin Shu got up early, changed into a pure black dress, put on a white flower hairpin, and went to the Interstellar Court without makeup.
Because of Qin Shu's popularity, StarNet netizens usually have the least patience to watch these court live broadcasts, but today many netizens came to watch.
[Purple Wind]: "I think the plain Qin Shu is also quite pretty."
[Plant Growth]: "This is a murder courtroom. Some netizens should stop focusing on other things, right? Everyone, be serious."
Perhaps because the atmosphere of the trial was so serious and solemn, the netizens on Starnet were quite well behaved for the time being and did not post much news until Qin Shu's so-called second uncle started to make all kinds of excuses when he made his statement.
[The first line of melon eaters]: "Fuck! I can't stand it anymore! What do you mean he just said it casually because he was drunk? Who knew the driver would do that?"
[Little Sun]: "Oh my god, he still has the nerve to say that because his brother is so outstanding, he lives in the shadows? How can I not see that he lives in the shadows? Isn't he living a very comfortable life?"
[0307]: "I didn't mean to kill anyone, I just wanted to scare him. Did the aircraft really have an accident? He's just trying to make excuses. I wonder how he can make excuses!"
ic]: "I have no idea what the point of his sophistry is. With so much evidence, is he assuming everyone is blind and can't see it?"
There was a lot of heated discussion on Starnet, but Qin Shu was very calm. She just sat upright in the front row, listening to her so-called second uncle's various excuses. However, she was overwhelmed by all the evidence and broke out in cold sweats. His stubborn resistance made him look like a clown.
Qin Yue's case was also heard in court together with this case. She did not quibble like Qin Li, but she looked gloomy and scary. Several times when the judge asked questions, she did not answer them, but repeatedly turned her head to look at Qin Shu with hatred.
But her hatred meant nothing to Qin Shu.
However, netizens on Starnet are somewhat dissatisfied with this.
[Eating melon first line]: "No, why does Qin Yue always turn his head to look at Qin Shu? Is he trying to kill with his eyes?"
[Plan]: "I used to be a casual fan of Qin Yue, thinking she was gentle and generous. But seeing her now, she's like a completely different person."
[RICH]: "In a sense, Qin Yue stole Qin Shu's life, right?"
[Alpha]: "Yeah, isn't that stealing Qin Shu's life? If Qin Shu's parents were still alive, what would their second room have to do with them? Could Qin Yue be a rich lady? Could she spend her own money to become a star and film various dramas?"
[Meimei]: "After hearing what you said, I suddenly hate Qin Yue."
Finally, the judge announced the verdict.
"Qin Li, harboring resentment towards his brother Qin Yang's family, conspired with others to intentionally murder Qin Shu and her family of three, causing an accidental aircraft crash and fabricating false information to cover up his crime. His actions were extremely despicable and his crimes were extremely serious. According to the laws of the Interstellar Federation, he is sentenced to death and all illegally acquired property will be confiscated."
"Qin Yue, after learning of his father's intentional murder and property theft, maliciously concealed the facts and, in order to completely seize the property of another, intentionally killed another. He is sentenced to confiscation of all property, 20 years in prison, and lifelong deprivation of political rights."
When Qin Li heard that he had been sentenced to death, he immediately shouted, "I don't accept it! I don't accept it!!"
Unfortunately, the judge didn't even give him a glance. The judge had seen many reactions of scumbags like this when they heard that they were going to die.
The bailiff quickly forced Qin Li to leave. Qin Li looked at Qin Shu, who was sitting on the side with an indifferent expression. He finally gave up all his pride and began to cry and beg for mercy: "Xiao Shu, Xiao Shu, please help your second uncle! After all these years, your second uncle has at least provided you with food, drink and education, right? You can't be such an ungrateful person!"
Qin Shu found it ridiculous when she heard this: "Without you, I would have lived a better life these years."
Would her parents let her suffer any injustice?
Seeing Qin Shu being so unkind, Qin Li immediately started cursing, "Qin Shu, I should have killed you from the beginning! You're just like your cold-blooded parents, a worthless person!"
Qin Shu didn't react when she heard what she heard before, but after hearing the last sentence, she immediately chased after him in her high heels, and then kicked Qin Li hard in the abdomen. The kick was so fierce that the two bailiffs almost couldn't hold Qin Li and took two steps back together.
Upon seeing this, the judge symbolically scolded Qin Shu twice, and then asked the bailiff to take Qin Li and Qin Yue away. No one knew that behind these two people was a ghost lady who no one could see.
Until this moment, all the farce has settled.
Qin Shu slowly breathed a sigh of relief, and then walked out of the courtyard accompanied by Xu Wen.
"There are a lot of reporters outside. Do we need to avoid them?" Xu Wen asked considerately.
If it were usual, Qin Shu might want to avoid it, but this time——
"Need not."
It is said that forgetting is a person’s second death.
Then let more people remember her parents.
The security team was already in position after hearing Qin Shu's answer, and Qin Shu strode out.
As soon as she came out, a large group of reporters surrounded her, wanting to interview her in various ways. The piles of questions made Qin Shu's ears hurt. She didn't want to pay too much attention to them, just nodded and wanted to leave, but she never expected that a very novel question would fall into her ears.
Qin Shu turned her head and looked at the female reporter: "What did you just ask me?"
The female reporter had never expected that Qin Shu would actually mention her. She was immediately overjoyed and quickly asked, "About this trial..."
"No, the question you just asked me."
The female reporter felt a little embarrassed when she heard that. She had just been yelling randomly, just to get Qin Shu's attention. But since Qin Shu asked, she answered honestly: "Well, you did very well in this monthly exam. Did you take special tutoring? Your teachers are all very good, right? Do you have any recommendations?"
When the other reporters heard the female reporter asking about tutoring, they immediately looked at her with a look that said, "Are you okay?" Is this question important? Who the hell wants to hear the answer to such a question?
Mr. Wu and Mr. Xu, who were standing in front of the Star Network, puffed out their chests with some pride. Qin Shu's other teachers were also a little excited. Only Mr. Wen, who had previously said, "Don't say I taught you," was now regretting it so much.
This is an interview that will be open to the entire Star Network. Becoming famous depends on now. Although Sigma First Comprehensive University is good, who doesn't want to continue to move higher?
Qin Shu answered honestly, "Yes, we hired two tutors, Mr. Xu and Mr. Wu. I'm very grateful for their guidance. As for their information, I'm sorry, they don't want to disclose it. But the teachers at our school are all good. You can check the teacher list on our official website. Oh, and by the way, if you see Mr. Wen, who doesn't want to reveal his name, just smile."
"What happened to Teacher Wen?" the female reporter asked puzzledly.
Qin Shu just smiled back at her when she heard that. In fact, she later realized that Teacher Wen wanted to help her with her studies because he was worried that she would not do well in the exam. Although he had a strange temper, he was really not a bad person.
Then Qin Shu and Xu Wen got on the hovercraft and left.
…
At this time, on the planet Akon.
In an unknown research base, a gentle man wearing gold-rimmed glasses was tapping the table with his fingers intermittently, and in front of him was a projection screen of the Star Network live broadcast. On the screen, the car that Qin Shu was riding in was moving away in the camera.
The man chuckled at this: "He's not dead yet. Interesting."
At this moment, someone knocked on the door of the room behind him.
"Come in."
An ordinary-looking tall and thin man walked in, lowered his head, and reported respectfully: "Master Jeffrey, Master Spade is calling."
"Come in."
"yes."
The tall and thin man respectfully took out a rare communicator. The signal of this communicator would not be intercepted by countries such as the Interstellar Federation and the Copra Empire, and was very concealed.
"Speak." Jeffrey's expression remained gentle, but his words seemed a little ruthless because they were too brief.
A voice, indistinguishable between male and female, came through the communicator's microphone: "I've already taken care of your offline tasks for you. Don't mess around again. I don't like cleaning up after people."
"You don't have to wipe it." Jeffrey said indifferently.
"snort."
"Is that all you're calling me for?"
"Of course not. I found the person you asked me to help find."
