Chapter 107 Did I accidentally give away a clue by not pretending?
Qin Jiahuai was silent for a moment, then asked, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
"..." Chu Yao looked at his expression and seemed to know nothing.
She quickly shook her head: "No, I've been reading too many rebirth novels recently and had a dream. I'm fine now."
I'd better search for the information myself first.
She quickly got off the bed and left with Qin Jiahuai.
While getting in the car, Chu Yao sorted out her latest memories while searching online for the director's fate.
It is still very easy to check public figures.
Xiao Qin succeeded ten years ago.
Everything went just as they had planned.
Relying on the clues given by the two of them, Sister Yuan quickly found Zhang Rui's third son and child.
Zhang Rui’s wife in prison is not completely stupid after all.
After knowing that her husband had an illegitimate child, she immediately changed her statement and revealed the matter of Zhang Rui.
However, since the legal representative of the entertainment company was Zhang Rui's wife, Zhang Rui's guilt was not as serious as hers, and he was only sentenced to 10 years in prison.
Sister Yuan became a huge hit because of this news and received a lot of bonuses. She also treated her and Qin Jiahuai to a hotpot meal that year.
Then, Zhang Rui was released in 2020 after his sentence was reduced for meritorious service in prison.
After being released, his life slowly returned to its old path.
He is still filming that anti-Japanese drama recently, and still asked Cheng Yiyi to play the fifth female role.
At the dinner he hosted that day, some internet celebrities still used stamps.
But he was still misled by Zheng Wenbo, thinking that Qin Jiahuai was drugged, and ran over... and then the two of them broke the boundaries of friendship.
However, the reason why Qin Jiahuai contacted Zhang Rui changed from "investigating whether Zhang Rui killed his father" to "Zhang Rui's new drama was invested by the Luan family, and he needs to communicate on some legal issues."
Whether Zhang Rui goes to jail or not has no impact on Uncle Qin's death.
Uncle Qin was beaten to death that year.
Chu Yao still flew to the north to investigate the cause of Uncle Qin's death.
But this time the villagers said:
"Dr. Qin was called out by a man in a suit and tie and never came back."
"I vaguely heard that they wanted to bring Dr. Qin back to treat another person's leg. They said... the young master only trusted him and wouldn't let anyone else treat him."
But the villagers' descriptions of what the man looked like were vague and didn't help her much.
Chu Yao figured out everything and was dumbfounded.
She had read about a theory of time and space before, which stated that no matter what a person did, the outcome would be reversed.
It feels like she has fallen into such a vicious circle this time, and all her efforts have been in vain!
No, no, no, it’s not in vain.
At least one piece of information was confirmed: Uncle Qin was not killed by Zhang Rui, the murderer was someone else.
And I have to go back to Fengpu to treat a young master...
With the Qin family's social status back then, which young master from Fengpu could force him to go back?
Then isn't it likely to be Luan Jing?
That’s right! Chu Yao thought about it carefully and realized that she did have this memory.
The day after she suspected Qin Jiahuai was drugged, he knew she was investigating his father's death, so he said something:
"If it weren't for the Luan family, my father wouldn't have left Fengpu."
Chu Yao finally figured out the content of this version update.
So it is very likely that Uncle Qin went to provide medical support because he didn't want to treat Luan Jing.
I didn’t expect that the Luan family would actually chase after them.
After he was called out, he never came back.
Chu Yao had tried her best this time, but failed to find out who that person was.
However, as long as Uncle Qin is resurrected, he will also awaken his past life memories and know who killed him in his previous life through dreams.
Chu Yao gradually came up with a new method.
Let Xiao Qin try it when I get home.
This time, I must save Uncle Qin.
Chu Yao raised her head and looked at the silent man beside her.
When she was in Xinxu Village, she had already decided to find out what was going on between him and the Luan family.
She spoke directly, "Can you please tell me honestly why you defended Luan Jing? Every time I think of that girl with scars all over her face, I can't understand your decision... You're not that kind of person."
Qin Jiahuai was silent for a few seconds, then confessed, "First, although Luan Jing has done some terrible things, he really didn't do this. Second, why do you think Zhang Rui's sentence was reduced from ten years to five?"
The first point he made was… that case has not yet gone to trial.
After such a long delay, Chu Yao was no longer sure if there was any hidden secret.
As for the second point, Chu Yao asked, "Didn't Zhang Rui receive a reduced sentence for meritorious service?"
Qin Jiahuai: "Yes. So if you send Luan Jing to jail, he will also be rewarded with merit and his sentence will be reduced. His merit will only be greater than Zhang Rui's."
When he pointed her out here, Chu Yao already understood.
The country's legal system will give prisoners the opportunity to reform.
There is no room for maneuver unless the death penalty is carried out immediately.
Other penalties can be gradually reduced.
A two-year reprieve for the death penalty means a two-year probation period. If the offender does not make any mistakes within the two years, the sentence can be commuted to life imprisonment.
If you behave well in prison or make significant contributions, such as helping to catch other criminals, your sentence can be reduced later.
Qin Jiahuai meant that if Luan Jing couldn't be sentenced to death in one go, there wouldn't be much point in him going to jail.
The Luan family can completely operate outside to create opportunities for him to make meritorious service and reduce his sentence.
Moreover, there is no limit on the number of times you can make major contributions, and you can reduce the number of times you make contributions repeatedly.
Even if he was sent in, he could definitely find a way to get out after a while.
Chu Yao thought about the clues Qin Jiahuai had revealed to her several times before...
At that time, she really thought that Qin Jiahuai and the Luan family were on the same side, and she was trembling with fear when she stole his information.
Now she was sure it wasn't.
She gently loosened her seatbelt, rested her head on his arm, looked at him and said, "I still like you to talk to me like this. Teach me directly, don't pretend to casually reveal clues to me and ask me to investigate."
Qin Jiahuai's Adam's apple rolled and his hand gripping the steering wheel tightened.
After a few seconds of silence, he pushed Chu Yao's head away with his other hand without mercy.
"Hold on tight! I'm driving."
Chu Yao sat back down and grumbled in dissatisfaction: "So fierce."
Qin Jiahuai was so angry that he laughed: "I'm only 27 years old. I just want to live. What's wrong with me?"
Chu Yao was silent for a while, then smiled faintly.
It seemed like he was embarrassed to admit that he had intentionally helped her before, so he was changing the subject.
She discovered during her student days that he was a man with a lot of baggage.
It was clearly the case, but he refused to admit it.
-
Soon they arrived downstairs of Chu Yao's house.
Chu Yao unbuckled her seatbelt, pointed to her neck, and asked, "I'm going to work tomorrow. Will they think I hanged myself at home?"
Qin Jiahuai tilted his head to glance at him, and said in a calm tone: "No, the marks of hanging are upwards, yours are horizontal."
He had absolutely no intention of applying medicine to her.
What an unqualified guardian.
Chu Yao lowered the corners of her lips a little, got out of the car and left quickly.
It’s better for you to go back and apply the medicine in front of the mirror yourself.
The first thing she did when she got home was to take out her diary.
Open it and see there are new messages.
Qin Jiahuai: [Has the future changed? Is my father still alive?]
Chu Yao: [No, the murderer wasn't that director. Dad, don't worry, we still have a chance. Find out the real reason why Grandpa had to go to the hospital. Then we can prescribe the right medicine and stop him from going.]
Just as I finished writing, someone rang the doorbell.
Chu Yao clicked on the video doorbell and took a look.
It was Qin Jiahuai, holding blood-removing medicine in his hand.
