"That's what I said..." The prefect choked and asked, "Do you want to overturn his verdict?"
Qin Zhao: "I just feel that there are still doubts in this case. I hope the prefect can review it."
Jiangling Prefecture had a large population, so beating drums to appeal for justice was not uncommon. However, this was the first time the prefect had seen someone redress someone else's grievances, and he was somewhat bewildered.
What medicine did this person take wrong today?
Qin Zhao asked: "Is it not possible?"
"That's not impossible," the prefect asked. "Do you have evidence to prove he was wrongly accused?"
Qin Zhao: "No."
“…”
The prefect immediately threw away his previous thoughts of not giving him preferential treatment. He knew that if the person standing in the hall had not been Qin Zhao, he would have probably kicked him out.
"Then what makes you say he was wronged?" The prefect was slightly angry, but he still patiently reasoned with him. "Mr. Qin, I've always believed you should be reasonable. How can I be convinced when you accuse me of a wrong judgment without any evidence? How can the people be convinced?"
"I can agree to re-examine this case, but if there is no evidence to prove that Mr. Chang was wrongly accused, how will you explain it?"
Qin Zhao asked, "What do you want, sir?"
"..." The prefect's face flushed with anger, and he stiffened his neck and said, "Then I will sentence you to the crime of disrupting the court!"
Jing Li's eyes trembled.
The consequences are so serious.
He quietly tugged at Qin Zhao's sleeve and whispered, "Forget it... We can first look for evidence. If we can prove that Boss Chang is innocent, then we can..."
"It's too late." Qin Zhao shook his head. "The case was closed yesterday. I'm afraid Boss Chang will be executed before we can find out the truth."
Qin Zhao squeezed Jing Li's hand soothingly, looked up at the prefect and said, "I will do as you say, sir."
.
When coming out of the government office, Jing Li was still a little dazed.
Qin Zhao raised his hand and waved it in front of him, saying, "What else are you thinking about? Go home."
"Going home?" Jing Li asked dazedly, "We're... going home now?"
Qin Zhao asked in return: "The case has been reported. Where else can I go if not home?"
Jing Li blinked blankly.
He thought they should hurry up and investigate the truth, such as looking for clues at the scene, or at least looking for clues on the body.
So Qin Zhao brought him to the government office just to report a case?
On the way back, Jing Li naively expressed his thoughts. Qin Zhao didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "These are the prefect's concerns. What does it have to do with us? Besides..."
"What?"
"Do you really think I know everything?" Qin Zhao looked at him helplessly.
It is not known whether it is a good thing or a bad thing that his young husband thinks so highly of him.
He knows a lot of things, but he really knows nothing about autopsies and investigating crimes. Why on earth does this little guy think he can get involved in the investigation?
Jing Li knew he was in the wrong, so he lowered his head and muttered softly, "I was deceived by a detective novel."
Qin Zhao: "What did you say?"
"It's okay." Jing Li quickly changed the subject. "Then what should we do next? Just wait like this?"
