Leng Fei's attitude, however, sparked my keen interest in her.

If she won't tell, I'll investigate myself.

"Sister Zhao, how is it?"

I gently shook my head.

"I really don't get it. Since she already admitted to murder, why is she still so evasive about these things?"

The young girl complained a few times but remained focused on the few documents in her hand, trying to see if there was anything she missed.

Xiao Du is a girl with a cold exterior but warm heart. The other day, when Leng Fei's parents came, it was she who cried her eyes out. Today, though she complained, she is still trying to find some clues.

Seeing her serious demeanor, I unintentionally recalled when Lawyer Zhang put her under my guidance, saying she was like me.

I gave a bitter smile and shook my head.

I'm a cold and selfish person and definitely do not have such a good heart.

There are people whose hearts are already rotten, yet no one sees it.

I look forward to...

Knock knock knock!

Someone knocked on my car window.

It was a stranger, probably not much older than Xiao Du.

His skin was dark, and he had a few features reminiscent of a primitive fisherman.

"You must be Lawyer Zhao. I didn't expect to see you here today."

"And you are?"

"My name is Jiang Xiaoyu."

Xiaoyu? A name well-suited to him.

So! What does he want?

As I was spacing out, he had already quietly climbed into the back seat.

I felt a bit helpless and glared at him wide-eyed, but he still wore a cheerful smile.

"Lawyer Zhao, my mentor assigned me to write the closing arguments, but there are some things I just can't get clear. I know you are investigating Leng Fei's case, so take me along!"
