Hello, Mr. Major General

Chapter 1615: Most Powerful Counterattack

"As long as we can find out who stole this note, we can find out who was the mastermind behind the kidnapping eight years ago."

Gu Nianzhi looked at Qin Yaoguang meaningfully, "But if we can't find out who stole the note in the surveillance footage from that year, or if the surveillance footage from that year suddenly disappeared or the technology malfunctioned, then Dean Qin, you're lying!"

"That means that the note wasn't lost at all, but you deliberately misled others and shirked responsibility!"

Her almond-shaped eyes widening, Qin Yaoguang looked at Gu Nianzhi in disbelief. Was she really not afraid that her perfect genes and special constitution would be exposed? !

Or was her fearlessness from ignorance?

Gu Nianzhi was still in a state of amnesia, so she dared to challenge her face to face and ask her to take out the surveillance video from that year?

But Qin Yaoguang really couldn't hand over the surveillance footage from back then.

Gu Xiangwen had physically deleted all the surveillance footage, including all the cloud storage, from the time Gu Nianzhi entered the lab at the age of two to the time she was taken away by Gu Xiangwen to the He family at the age of six…

Not only had Gu Xiangwen physically deleted the footage from her lab, but he had also erased all the data related to her experiments.

In the next 14 years, no matter how powerful the computer hardware and software experts were, they were unable to recover the data that he had erased.

Otherwise, how could her experiment not make any progress after so many years? !

Qin Yaoguang lowered her head, and a malicious expression flashed in her eyes.

However, when she raised her head again, she had already returned to normal. She sneered and spread out her hands. "You've already said everything, so what else can I say?"

"It's not a secret that our lab has surveillance cameras. How could the person who stole the note be so stupid as to keep the surveillance cameras as evidence against him?"

"To tell you the truth, the person who stole the note 14 years ago hacked into the central control system of our lab and deleted the surveillance footage from 18 to 14 years ago. He didn't even let go of our experimental data."

This period of time was coincidentally the most important evidence of Gu Nianzhi's four years from the age of two to six.

Gu Nianzhi had actually known about this inside story a long time ago.

Because when Lu Jin had admitted to her that he was Gu Xiangwen, he had already told her the whole story.

When he returned to the lab four years after he had left and found out what Qin Yaoguang had done, he was furious, but he did not dare to openly go against her because he was worried that Qin Yaoguang would go all out and expose Gu Nianzhi's perfect genes and special constitution to the public. This would make her the target of everyone's envy.

Therefore, he only secretly warned Qin Yaoguang to physically delete all the relevant data from Qin Yaoguang's lab. Of course, this included the surveillance footage from that time.

Then, he sent Gu Nianzhi directly to the He family's house.

He knew that there was only one person in this world who could make Qin Yaoguang not dare to act rashly, and that was He Chengjian.

Although the data and surveillance footage were very good evidence, they were also double-edged swords. They could accuse Qin Yaoguang and hurt Gu Nianzhi at the same time.

Lu Jin chose the lesser of two evils. He decided to delete all the data and footage to the point where they could not be recovered. Only then would he be able to protect Gu Nianzhi to the greatest extent.

Gu Nianzhi felt a warmth in her heart when she thought of Lu Jin's fatherly love.

This feeling of having someone to rely on no matter what she did became her new belief and pillar of support.

Gu Nianzhi looked at Qin Yaoguang with a smile, and she said nonchalantly, "Is that so? What a coincidence? Whatever evidence we wanted, it disappeared. Then, the defendant, Qin Yaoguang, you know that if you don't have any evidence, everything you say is like water without a source, like a tree without a root."

"In other words, you're lying. The court won't believe your story. So, we're back to square one. May I ask why you came up with this scheme to kidnap me eight years ago?"

Wen Shouyi's eyes flashed. She stood up calmly and said, "Objection! According to the principle of presumption of innocence, the prosecution is required to bear the burden of proof to prove that a person is guilty, while acquiescing that the person is innocent."

"Also, according to the principle of presumption of innocence, if the criminal suspect's criminal facts are not clear and the evidence is not reliable and sufficient, then criminal responsibility should not be pursued. The court should dismiss the wrongful prosecution this time."

"From the current situation, the plaintiff, the prosecution, is unable to produce direct evidence to prove that the case eight years ago was tied to my client. All the inferences are based on assumptions, so I request the court to dismiss the charges against my client and let the plaintiff bear all the losses of my client."

"These losses include, but are not limited to, the loss of reputation, the cost of time, and the compensation for the lives of all the staff in the client's lab. Gu Nianzhi, just wait for my lawyer's letter and prepare to go bankrupt!"

Her round and fair face gleaming with excitement, Wen Shouyi raised her head slightly.

At that moment, everyone in the courtroom turned to look at her.

Old Master Qin looked at her excitedly and rubbed his hands together in delight.

He had not expected Wen Shouyi to do better than he had expected!

After all, it would be best for the Qin family if Qin Yaoguang could escape unscathed!

It was so quiet in the courtroom that everything seemed to be frozen in air.

He Zhichu's hands tightened and his almond-shaped eyes narrowed.

He Chengjian was also a little surprised. He couldn't help but look at He Zhichu and then at Gu Nianzhi. He really wanted to say something.

He Zhichu glanced at him and said calmly, "Don't be impatient. Nianzhi will fight back."

"… But Wen Shouyi's words are flawless. Unless Gu Nianzhi can produce a new direct proof, otherwise…"

He Chengjian was very worried that Gu Nianzhi would be defeated this time.

He Zhichu did not speak anymore. He looked at Gu Nianzhi intently and silently prayed for her in his heart.

He believed in her. She would definitely find a way to fight back.

Gu Nianzhi turned her head and looked at Wen Shouyi from top to bottom. She smiled but did not say a word.

Her smile was so ridiculing that Wen Shouyi's hair stood on end. She couldn't help thinking, did she miss another important segment?

Gu Nianzhi's silence was even more chilling than her immediate rebuttal.

The courtroom was gradually filled with the tension of a storm brewing. It was like a bowstring slowly being pulled into a full moon in front of everyone.

Just as the bowstring was about to be pulled to its limit, Gu Nianzhi burst into laughter.

Her laughter, like a broken silver bottle falling onto a jade plate, was crisp and melodious. It swept away the tension in the air.

"There is no direct evidence, so due to the presumption of innocence, she's innocent until proven guilty? Lawyer Wen, are you in that much of a hurry to get Qin Yaoguang off the hook?" Gu Nianzhi slapped a document on the dock in front of Wen Shouyi. "Lawyer Wen, open your eyes and see clearly!"

Wen Shouyi quickly lowered her head and saw that Gu Nianzhi had slapped a plaintiff's indictment in front of her.

Unable to react for a moment, she blinked. She said subconsciously, "This is your plaintiff's lawsuit. It's just proof of your plaintiff's identity. You're saying this is direct evidence? You're the one who's going crazy trying to sue your biological mother, aren't you? !"

Wen Shouyi had said "plaintiff's lawsuit."The other people in the courtroom might not have been able to react, but He Zhichu's lips curled up slightly, and a slight smile appeared on his cold face.

He knew that Gu Nianzhi had indeed found the most powerful counterattack.

Sure enough, Gu Nianzhi picked up the plaintiff's indictment again and showed it to everyone in the court. She said calmly, "Lawyer Wen was very clear just now. This is my plaintiff's indictment. It proves my identity as a plaintiff."

"What she didn't say is that this plaintiff's indictment can also be tied to direct evidence."

"You don't understand?" Gu Nianzhi glanced at where the Qin family was sitting and deliberately turned to face them. She asked Wen Shouyi, "Lawyer Wen, let me ask you, what is direct evidence?"

"Lawyer Gu, have you forgotten the basic legal knowledge you learned in University?" Wen Shouyi felt confident and asked back mockingly. She even made a hand gesture, "Direct evidence refers to the evidence that can be used to single-handedly explain the main facts of the case."

Gu Nianzhi smiled and asked again, "Then how many types of direct evidence are required by law?"

Wen Shouyi also smiled and said, "It seems that Lawyer Gu is really forgetful. It doesn't matter. I'll give you another lesson."

She continued, "There are five types of direct evidence that are permitted by law. The first type is the statement of the client…"

Wen Shouyi suddenly froze when she heard this.

Her pupils constricted in an instant, and her expression immediately became unsightly.

The smile on Gu Nianzhi's lips grew wider. "Why didn't you continue? Lawyer Wen? You only said one type?"

Wen Shouyi glared angrily at Gu Nianzhi. She pursed her lips tightly and refused to say a word.

She couldn't believe it. She had been on her guard and was about to completely defeat Gu Nianzhi, but she had still turned the tables on her!

How could there be such a cunning person in this world? !

Qin Yaoguang was waiting anxiously by the side. She couldn't help tugging at the corner of Wen Shouyi's shirt and muttering, "Why aren't you saying anything? She doesn't have any direct evidence. Don't be fooled by her."

Like a persimmon in late autumn, Wen Shouyi's fair and round face gradually turned red. There was no sweet sensation, only boundless chill.

Gu Nianzhi smiled at Qin Yaoguang and said pleasantly, "If she won't say it, I will."

"There are five types of direct evidence that are legally recognized. The first type is the statement of the party involved. In a criminal case, it includes the statement of the criminal victim, the statement and defense of the criminal suspect and the defendant."

"The second type is the witness and testimony that can prove the main facts of the case."

"The third type is the written evidence that can prove the main facts of the case. For example, the small note that you used to frame the case."

"The fourth type is the audio-visual material that can prove the main facts of the case, such as the surveillance video that has been 'deleted'."

"The fifth type is the physical evidence that can directly prove the commission of a crime under certain circumstances. Physical evidence generally cannot become direct evidence, but it can also become direct evidence under a few specific circumstances."

Gu Nianzhi leaned forward and pointed her finger at herself. A hint of mockery and derision flashed across her large eyes.

"According to the law, this is the first direct evidence, and I am the victim of this case."

"My statement is the most powerful first direct evidence."

"I testify that I personally saw Wen Dayou and his wife hand the incapacitated me to Qin Yaoguang."

"Lawyer Wen, the defendant, Qin Yaoguang, how can you ignore me when I'm standing right in front of you?"

"You keep saying that you have no direct evidence, so you can only make the presumption of innocence and innocence? ! In your eyes, I'm not a person, and I don't have the legal body and qualifications to act normally, am I?"

Gu Nianzhi's mocking and contemptuous expression was exactly like that of someone…

That person would be Qin Yaoguang's psychological trauma for the rest of her life. She was so angry that she lost her mind.

Just a moment ago, she had thought that she would be able to get away with it and teach Gu Nianzhi a lesson. But now, she realized that she had fallen into the pit once again. Furthermore, she might even be convicted and ruined because of Gu Nianzhi's nonsense!

Under this double stimulation, Qin Yaoguang only felt a piercing pain in her brain. She could not control her anger. She covered her left head with one hand and glared at Gu Nianzhi. She pointed at her with the other and said angrily, "Who do you think you are? ! You -"

"Shut up!" Old Master Qin saw that the situation was not looking good and immediately stood up from the gallery. Tears rolled down his aged face. "Yaoguang, now that things have come to this, don't put up a fight anymore. Admi your guilt…"

"You made a mistake eight years ago for a reason. Don't make it worse! — It's better to confess to the court!"
