Chapter 575: Still Can’t Protect Her
Gu Yunqing was shocked. Her face was pale as she stuttered, “W-what’s wrong with me? I just wanted to contribute, so I paid extra attention to this case! Moreover, I was the one who reported the club’s name list. There’s a reason for me to pay attention to this matter!”
She pointed at Xue Xi and shouted, “The case is clear now—Yu Da killed someone after Fang Fang left. In order to cover up his murder, he tampered with the video! What else is there to say?”
She panicked and trembled as she looked at Zheng Zhi. “Judge Zheng, hurry up and announce the verdict!”
At this moment, her agitation and trembling were reflected in everyone’s eyes.
Even Zheng Zhi frowned and remained silent.
Xue Xi stared at her and slowly said, “Why are you so nervous?”
Gu Yunqing’s forehead was already sweating. “I’m not nervous.”
Jing Fei was aggressive. “If you’re not nervous, why are you trembling? Could this case be related to you?”
His words made Gu Yunqing look up. “I told you, I’m not nervous!”
She turned to look at Xue Xi. “I know. Are you trying to slander me so that you can save the members of your club? Let me tell you, with Judge Zheng here, you can’t spout nonsense!”
She turned to look at Yu Da. “Are you still not going to admit it? Do you have to make Xue Xi recover the other video?”
The other video…
These words made Yu Da speak suddenly. “Fang Fang, you’re too weak and useless! It’s all your fault! If you’d been more daring, you could have pushed Liu Zhao down. There wouldn’t have been those things that happened after that! You idiot, idiot, what right do you have to have a special power?!”
His words made Zheng Zhi furious. With a bang, he slammed the gavel in his hand on the table. The sound was deafening. Zheng Zhi stared at Yu Da and said, “It’s a blessing from God that we have special abilities! In the entire world, there are very few people who have special abilities. It’s fine if you don’t know how to be grateful, and it’s fine if you don’t want to use your advantages to serve the country, but you actually used it to commit evil!”
Zheng Zhi frowned. His expression seemed sharp enough to kill a fly. He said in disdain, “How can someone like you have a special power?”
He turned to look at Xue Xi. “Now, he has admitted it himself. There is also evidence of Fang Fang leaving in the video. All of this is just his means to bewitch people. This case was done by Yu Da. What else is there to say?”
He was a little annoyed. He felt that Yu Da had stayed in the world of ordinary people for such a long time that he’d learned how to plot and scheme, coming up with so many sinister thoughts.
Since he had a special power, why not make good use of it? Why must he learn from ordinary people?
However, his question did not receive a reply from Xue Xi.
The girl kept staring at Yu Da. Her eyes were red and her face was expressionless. She did not even look at him. Zheng Zhi realized this and became even more annoyed.
What was this person proud of?
Moreover, at this time, she was actually still feeling heartache for Yu Da?
Why should such trash be pitied?!
Ordinary people were too troublesome! They were always emotional!
He frowned and thought about it. He wanted to quickly understand this case, so he said in a loud voice, “Since this is the case, I’ll announce again that Yu Da will be sentenced as the murderer…”
Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Xue Xi again.
Xue Xi stared at Yu Da and slowly said, “Why are you so silly?”
These words made Yu Da tremble.
Beside him, Bottle, Water, and Flight also recovered from their shock. They shouted, “Yu Da is not such a person! There must be some misunderstanding! We believe in Yu Da!”
Under such circumstances, Fang Fang choked and cried again.
She could not speak clearly and felt that she could not find a vent to release all her emotions. She could only whisper, “Yu Da, it’s not like that. Yu Da… Say it clearly…”
Yu Da did not look at the four of them and only looked at Xue Xi. “Sister Xi, this matter ends here. Don’t investigate anymore, alright?”
Xue Xi blinked and looked at the five people in front of her.
Yu Da’s eyes were red, but his expression was resolute. Bottle, Water, and Flight looked at Yu Da firmly. Their eyes were filled with trust, as if they had never doubted him.
Meanwhile, Fang Fang was already crying on the stage.
These five people.
Such a group of souls.
Xue Xi blinked again and suppressed the tears in her eyes. Under Yu Da’s pleading gaze, she said firmly, “When you first destroyed the video, the police and I subconsciously felt that there was nothing wrong with the video we recovered painstakingly. All of this pointed to Fang Fang. At some point, you desperately gave hints to me. You first started talking about Iron Man, and after finding out that Fang Fang was going to be sentenced to death, you gave Green Arrow a hint. Didn’t you want me to recover the video?”
Her words stunned Zheng Zhi and Jing Fei.
Yu Da turned around. “I don’t know what you’re talking about. Sister Xi, stop asking. Stop investigating!”
Xue Xi sighed. “I tried my best to recover the second recording, but I didn’t see who’d killed Liu Zhao after Fang Fang left. This is actually a trap.
“You successfully diverted everyone’s attention to you. Coupled with your performance just now, everyone will think that you went to the rooftop after Fang Fang left and killed Liu Zhao. Even if the video can’t be restored, no one will pay attention to what the original video contains anymore.”
Yu Da shouted, “Sister Xi!”
His voice was pleading.
However, Xue Xi cruelly ignored him and continued slowly, “But I don’t believe that you’re such a person. Coupled with the various suspicious points that Gu Yunqing exposed, I recovered the third video.”
When Yu Da heard this, his eyes were filled with despair. His legs went weak as he leaned against the interrogation table. His eyes looked at Fang Fang. “How… How is this possible… The video that my robot hands destroyed can’t be restored…”
However, his words became softer when he recalled that Xue Xi was X.
Others might not be able to recover it, but she could.
Yu Da lowered his head in disappointment.
In the end, he still could not protect her?
Seeing this, Xue Xi could guess.
She raised the USB drive in her hand and slowly said, “In the third video, Fang Fang returned and killed Liu Zhao.”
Everyone was stunned.
Everyone turned to look at Fang Fang again, only to see her raising her head in disbelief as though she did not understand what was going on.
Xue Xi stared at Yu Da and slowly said, “All your actions were meant to protect the guilty party.”
She inserted the USB drive into the computer and opened the video again.
In the video, after Liu Zhao was put down by Fang Fang, Fang Fang turned invisible and left. After about two to three seconds, another figure with their back facing the camera suddenly appeared on the rooftop. This figure walked behind the frightened Liu Zhao and pushed her down forcefully!
At this point, the entire video was complete.
It was obvious who the murderer was at a glance and there was no possibility of a reversal.
Jing Fei and Zheng Zhi frowned and looked at Fang Fang again.
Meanwhile, Yu Da hugged his head dispiritedly. No matter what he did, he still could not save her…
Gu Yunqing watched from the side and finally shouted excitedly, “Look, the person in the video is Fang Fang. Hence, Xue Xi, you caused such a scene when the culprit is still Fang Fang in the end! Yu Da and the rest still colluded! Judge Zheng, hurry and announce the verdict!”
Jing Fei and Zheng Zhi did not dare to speak at this moment. This was because today’s case had reversed and reversed, making them feel a little confused.
If the murderer was still Fang Fang, then why did Xue Xi have to do all this?
While the two of them were in a daze, Xue Xi looked at Fang Fang. “Fang Fang, don’t you understand? Everything Yu Da has done has been to protect you!”
Fang Fang stared at the video and was stunned.
She stopped crying and slowly turned around with her eyes red. She looked at Yu Da. “B-But I left then and didn’t turn around…”
