In the Chen Residence.
"The case of Lu Zhao was solved by the President of the Board of Justice himself. He naturally wouldn't reopen the case for Lu Zhao." The Chief Patrol Officer had Lu Zhao's confession in his hands, and he was a student of the Board of Justice's president. Naturally, the Chief Patrol Officer wouldn't stand up for Lu Zhao. Even above the Lord Inspector, there was the emperor. It couldn't be that the emperor would retake the case against Lu Zhao, right? Besides, we can't see the Emperor at all. " Bing'er said to Sihan and Zhining as she paced back and forth.
After saying that, Bing'er sat back on the chair like a deflated ball. She pouted her lips and lowered her head, not saying a word. She'd only been interested in finding out the truth and returning Lu Zhao's innocence. But now that she'd found out the truth, she couldn't find anyone who could turn the case against Lu Zhao. If no one turned the case over for him, then he'd still die.
Silence descended upon the room. None of them spoke, because they all knew that even if the truth was laid out in front of them and no official was willing to reverse the case against Lu Zhao, all their efforts would have been in vain.
After a long time.
ZhiNing stood up from her chair, "I'm going to see the Southern Seas."
"Do you think he'll believe us and reverse the case for Lu Zhao?" Bing'er stood up and asked.
"The evidence and the truth are right in front of his eyes. If he still refuses to reverse the case for Lu Zhao, then he won't be fit to be a patrolman." Zhining looked back at Bing'er and said.
Bing-Er sat back on the chair, poured herself a cup of tea and pecked at it softly. Out of the corner of her eyes, she glanced at Zhining, "Go and come back quickly. We will wait here for your good news."
Sihan turned her head and threw a smile at Zhining, "Go."
You nodded to Sihan and Bing'er, and then left the room.
ZhiNing performed her Qing Gong all the way to the Southern Prefecture.
At this moment, the gate to the Southern Palace was tightly shut. Presumably, the Southern Sea had already fallen asleep. ZhiNing thought for a moment, then leapt over the high wall, quietly landed on the ground, and walked towards the Southern Sea's bedroom while stepping in the night.
Zhining avoided the guards of the Southern Prefecture and quietly sneaked into the Southern Sea's sleeping quarters.
As soon as she entered the room, a strong masculine scent wafted into Zhining's nose, and that strong masculine scent stirred ripples in Zhining's heart, causing her heart to tremble slightly. Zhining hurriedly covered up the slight tremble in her heart, and taking advantage of the faint moonlight, Zhining saw that there seemed to be a person lying on the bed behind a heavy curtain. She silently walked up to the bed, knelt down on one knee, and clasped her fists, "Sir, I, Chen Zhi, have something to report to you."
However, her words had been silent for a long time. Doubts inevitably arose in ZhiNing's heart. She once again reported in a slightly louder voice to the Southern Sea who was lying behind the curtain, "Sir, Subordinate Chen Zhi has something that he wishes to report to you."
"How dare you, Chen Zhi, break into my bedroom in the middle of the night. What punishment do you think you deserve?" The cold voice of the Southern Ocean reached ZhiNing's ears.
She was still kneeling on the ground as she turned around to look at the Southern Sea. At this time, the Southern Sea had just taken a bath, his long black hair was still dripping water, his handsome cheeks were slightly red, and his upper body was extremely muscular. It did not look as weak as it did on the surface, so he would not be able to withstand a single blow. Water droplets slowly rolled down his cheeks.
There was a faint smile hanging from the corner of his mouth as he looked at Zhining, but his eyes were incomparably sharp. Such a fierce gaze caused Zhining to unconsciously lower her eyes and not look at him, "Sir, it is your subordinate's fault that I sneaked into your room late at night, but your subordinate really has something to report to you."
Southern Ocean walked in front of the bed with a towel wrapped around his waist. He lifted the curtain at the head of the bed and sat on the edge of the bed. His pair of fierce eyes seemed even sharper in the darkness. He stripped off the towel that had been wrapped around his lower body and put on the overalls and tunic he had left on the floor.
ZhiNing did not expect that Southern Sea would actually take off the towel in front of her. She hurriedly turned her head to look elsewhere, but her heart was beating wildly.
Seeing that Zhining had turned her head away to look at him, the smile on the corner of Nanhai's lips widened even more. He looked at ZhiNing with slight ridicule, "You barged into my bedroom late at night and just knelt there to watch me change?"
"No." Zhining answered without thinking, "Sir, the reason why your subordinate broke into your room so late in the night was so that you could overturn the case on Lu Zhao's behalf."
"What's going on?" Southern Sea suddenly stopped, and a hint of surprise flashed across his eyes when he looked at Zhining. "The case against Lu Zhao has already been concluded, and Lu Zhao has already pleaded guilty. How can I possibly be called to court again for the sake of a criminal who has already pleaded guilty?"
"My lord, Lu Zhao admitted his guilt because he didn't want Grandma Lu to work tirelessly for him and get beaten up." My lord, Lu Zhao pleaded his guilt because he didn't want Grandma Lu to work tirelessly for him and get beaten up. Zhining hurriedly explained to Southern Ocean.
"No matter what, I'm not going to open a court hearing on Lu Zhao's case. The case has been cleared up, and I won't do anything unnecessary." Nanhai coldly rejected Zhining.
"Sir, your subordinate and several friends have found out who killed Xiu-Er. Please try again to reinstate Lu Zhao's innocence." ZhiNing lowered her head and respectfully begged the Southern Sea.
"The Minister of Justice has been investigating this case for many years. How could he have captured the murderer wrongly?" I believe that the Minister of Justice will not wrongly accuse Lu Zhao. "You can go back. I'll pretend that nothing happened when you broke into my room, but I won't allow you to sneak into my room again." Nanhai coldly rejected Zhining and wanted her to leave the room.
ZhiNing raised her head and looked pleadingly at Southern Ocean, "Sir."
But who knew that Nanhai wouldn't care about Zhining. He simply lifted up the blanket, laid down on the bed, closed his eyes and slept. At the same time, he slowly opened his mouth, "Still not going out?"
She stood up from the ground, walked in front of Nanhai, and questioned him in a cold voice, "Sir, Lu Shao has been wrongly accused, and we also have evidence to prove that you are the real culprit. Why is it that sire isn't willing to try the case for Lu Zhao again?"
"I'll say it again. I believe that the president of the Board of Justice won't arrest the wrong person." Nanhai replied without opening his eyes.
Believe in the Minister? Wasn't he afraid that the murderer would appear and sully the good name of the head of the Board of Justice?
She tightly clenched her fist, looking coldly at Nanhai in disdain, "Sir, your subordinate has misjudged you. I didn't expect that you, Sir, would, in order to protect your teacher's reputation, ignore an innocent life. You, Sir, aren't worthy of being a Chief Patrol Officer." With that, Zhining left Nanhai's room.
When they reached the entrance, ZhiNing paused for a moment. She then turned her head and said to Nanhai who was lying on the bed, "I once went to Yizhuang with two friends to examine Xiu-Er's corpse. However, not long after we left, Xiu-Er's corpse was set on fire." Bi Zhining quickly left the room.
