False evidence

Chapter 200 The Sinner (Part 2)
Gao shook his head, indicating that he did not understand what I meant.

Just then, Yue Rong walked in.

Upon seeing this prominent lawyer, Gao He frowned again.

Yue Rong handed me a stack of documents: "Take a look. If there are no problems, just sign them."

Without even looking at it, I signed it and casually handed the document to Cao Xinyun.

After Cao Xinyun signed the document, he handed it to the monkey.

"What else do you want to do?" Gao asked, glaring at me.

"Fighting is nothing, but my dog ​​got stabbed. It's my dog, and if I really killed it, it deserved it, but if anyone else dares to touch it, I'll make them regret it for the rest of their life!"

As I spoke, I handed the signed document back to Yue Rong, asking, "Did you receive the transfer?"

Yue Rong nodded.

I said, "I know that might not be enough for the lawyer's fees, I will..."

Yue Rong interrupted me, saying, "If we're already friends, 12,000 as a friend's price is enough. The key is..."

She pointed at Cao Xinyun: "Cao Jinxiu, the female owner of Cao Furui Tailor Shop, gave our law firm a considerable sum of money. She has only one request—all nineteen people who ganged up on you on Sanfenqian Street must be punished by law!"

"Is this lawsuit difficult?" I asked.

Yue Rong laughed: "Besides the residents of Sanfenqian Street, there were at least twenty real estate, department store... well, elites from all walks of life who served as witnesses. Even if the other side hires the best lawyers, they can't accuse these people with total assets of over 100 million of going out to fight, can they? Also, apart from the table in a restaurant, the three of you were all unarmed, but the other side had at least four people carrying controlled weapons. So... can I say that being a lawyer is really easy to make money?"

I was amused by this woman's humor.

Gao He rolled his eyes repeatedly: "Sanqi! Sanqi... I've figured it out. Anyone who dares to mess with you is incredibly unlucky. You have to beat them so badly they can't even get up!"

I pursed my lips, thought for a moment, and then asked Yue Rong, "Mrs. Yu, may I ask you a question? Is there any way to stop someone who...may have criminal tendencies from committing a crime?"

Yue Rong was slightly taken aback: "Is the other person's mental state still considered normal?"

I shook my head: "Not sure."

Yue Rong thought for a moment and slowly said, "Lawyers also need to study criminal psychology, so I'm not sure what kind of situation you're referring to. But if the other party has no prior criminal record and has only been found to have criminal tendencies, then they should be considered impulsive."

At this point, the best thing to do is usually to stay by his side as much as possible and offer him emotional support. Of course, this support shouldn't be too obvious; it should only be suggestive, otherwise it might backfire. "How about this, if you think it's appropriate, I can go and meet the person you mentioned..."

"No!" I said hastily, looking her up and down at her beautiful figure. I felt a headache coming on and subconsciously said, "A woman as special as you might be his target."

Yue Rong tilted her head. "Is there anything else I need to do?"

I stood up and said, "No need, you've already gone to so much trouble, thank you." I bowed to her formally.

Yue Rong laughed, but it was a mischievous laugh: "I don't know why, but when you're being polite to me, I feel a little uncomfortable. It's not that I dislike you, but... you suddenly remind me of my middle school days, when I was first pursued by a male classmate. Do you understand what I mean?"

After saying that, she winked at me and gracefully left. Her light steps were just like those of a little girl.

Cao Xinyun mimicked her tone from earlier and said, "I don't know why, but when you're being polite to women, I feel quite uncomfortable. It's a kind of disgust, and it's a very direct feeling. In your eyes, it's like they're not wearing any clothes."

Unlike his teasing, Gao He said very seriously, "Sanqi, I don't know when it started, but I have a very special feeling about you. It seems like you've started to manipulate and use... no, I used the wrong word. I should say that you've become able to subtly influence the women who get close to you. If I may say something, lately, your sister-in-law and I have talked about you the most. Her fondness for you has surprised me."

Gao He shook his head: "Forget it, let's change the subject. Let's go back to what you just said—that you created a major criminal? Do you know what that means? Can I interpret it as, this is very serious? The kind of serious that's out of control? Or to put it simply, this major criminal is you? Or another part of your consciousness?"

I shook my head and said, "It's not me, it's Meng Chao."

"Meng Chao?"

"Mengniu?"

Both Gao He and the monkey wore puzzled expressions.

I told Gao He to close the door and said to him, "You know that I've been invaded by a consciousness that doesn't belong to me. Now I'm sure there are two other people in the same situation as me."

"Meng Chao?" Gao He frowned.

I nodded, and seeing that Cao Xinyun looked completely bewildered, I simply recounted the incident of going down to the kiln.

Upon hearing this, Gao He frowned deeply: "I understand what you mean. That time, not only were you invaded by Lü Xin's consciousness, but Meng Chao was also invaded. Although I haven't had much contact with him, I personally believe that he is not like you, able to resist Lü Xin's consciousness with his own rationality."

Gao He suddenly raised an eyebrow: "Who's the other one?"

"It's Sister Ling!"

"How is that possible!" Gao He waved his hand forcefully involuntarily.

I took out my backpack and took out the items I found in the 'dead man's furnace' one by one.

"Holy crap! I thought you were a poor guy, but you're actually a tycoon!" Cao Xinyun exclaimed dramatically.

I told Gao He that all of these things were found in Uncle Cheng's kitchen.

According to the letter left by Uncle Cheng, the original owner of the house was a family that specialized in building tombs.

According to the records, the original homeowner, Jiang Baohan, had a beautiful wife surnamed Tong.

"I still don't quite understand what you mean." Gao He genuinely didn't get it.

I looked at him and said, "The woman who was abducted and eloped with by Lü Xin on that Republican-era train on the Yuehan Railway was named Tong Jiawen. Lü Xin eventually died in this city. Also, an old gentleman told me that the last time he saw Tong Jiawen was also in this city."

Gao He's expression immediately turned serious: "You suspect that Jiang Baohan's beautiful wife is Tong Jiawen, who eloped with Lü Xin before; and that Fang Ling's strange behavior before was because of that house, because of Tong Jiawen?"

I nodded: "She went to Dongtaimen to sell jewelry and spent over 100,000 yuan to have clothes made by Cao Furui. These were things that Sister Ling would not normally be able to do, but she did them."

The man with the twisted hoax of slitting throats targeted her because, like another victim, she possessed a classical beauty.

Gao He said, "I'm not too worried about that, because in Lü Xin's case, Tong Jiawen has always been the victim. To others, she is harmless..."

I abruptly interrupted him: "Who told you she was harmless?"
