Chapter 1472 Whose Trial
After the death of his son and daughter-in-law, only Cheng Zhiyuan's room could see their photos. Apart from that, all traces of them were collected by Commander Cheng.
He didn't dare to look.
Never dared.
He was afraid that every time he saw it, he would be reminded of how big a mistake he had made, a mistake so big that he had to pay the price of losing his loved ones and his family being destroyed in order to cleanse the souls of the innocent.
But today, he had to come.
Su Cheng was sentenced to life imprisonment.
The Gu family's wrongful case was retried.
The soul that had long been dead has come back again.
The destruction of a family is not enough, because the real culprit who did the wrong thing back then has not yet been brought to justice.
When the gavel of judgment struck, the three sounds seemed to hit his heart heavily.
That was not only a trial for Su Cheng, but also a trial for him.
He slowly stroked the faces of the couple in the photo with his fingers and let out a long sigh. This sigh seemed to have released all the pent-up depression in his heart, making him feel a lot more relaxed.
After stroking the photo for a long time, the old man slowly prepared to put it down. At this moment, his eyes suddenly caught sight of another photo frame on the table. He stopped and picked up that photo frame. The photo inside was very new, obviously taken recently.
She is a very beautiful girl with a bright red teardrop mole on the corner of her eye. When she smiles, her mouth opens, revealing her white teeth. Her peach blossom eyes are so dazzling that they brighten people's eyes even in the middle of the night. It is as if the sun has come in the morning.
The corners of the old man's mouth finally twitched slightly, revealing a not very familiar smile.
At this moment, his peripheral vision suddenly caught a glimpse of the wall. He was slightly stunned and shifted his gaze over.
The residual light of the desk lamp shone on the wall, illuminating some dim, uneven shadows. Looking closely, they were all exquisite photo frames of different sizes.
The old man turned the lamp again so that the light could completely illuminate the photos, and he was stunned.
After looking at the entire wall of photos for a while, he looked down at the photos in his hand.
Two people with different looks, but their smiles are almost identical.
this......
Just as I was lost in thought, there was a sudden, sharp knock on the door.
"Commander! Someone's calling you! Something's not right! Come and answer the phone! Commander!"
Without checking, Commander Cheng's hand shook, and the family portrait in his left hand fell to the ground with a snap, making a crisp cracking sound.
He looked down and saw that the glass was broken and the photo was cut into pieces by the cracks.
The knocking sound outside the door continued to urge him. He had no time to pick it up. He just put the girl's photo on the table and hurried out of the study.

"Why so urgent? Who's calling?"
As soon as he left the study, the old man frowned and straightened his body, and said to the orderly as he walked out,
"Why didn't you bring your phone?"
"He didn't say who it was, just that he was a man. He just said he wanted you to answer the phone. The tone and content of his voice were very strange. And he called the house landline, not a mobile phone. I've asked the communications department to check the IP address."
The orderly explained the situation concisely and quickly. Commander Cheng frowned even more tightly and his pace quickened involuntarily.
The photo frame that had just been broken was still lingering in his mind. Together with the frantic look of Su Cheng in the live broadcast of the trial he had seen not long ago, it finally aroused some ominous premonitions in his heart.
