Chapter 104: Jiaojiao, Are You Alright?
The fear in the girl’s tone was real. Coupled with her trembling expression, she looked like a pitiful girl who had been bullied.
Huo Chen frowned. He didn’t bully this young lady, did he?
“Then, tell me everything that happened there,” Huo Chen said.
Chi Jiao looked at the expressionless man and nodded timidly.
Of course, she naturally wouldn’t tell him that she could see someone else’s future. Chi Jiao casually found a reasonable excuse to go to Jin Yiming’s house to find Bai Weiyu. Coincidentally, she ran into Jin Yiming as he was about to harm Weiyu. She also discovered the missing female student from their school in the basement.
She told Huo Chen about her knowledge of self-defense.
The police had also found the surveillance video in the basement at Jin Yiming’s house.
Jin Yiming’s boldness exceeded the police’s imagination. In order to repeatedly enjoy the victim’s pained expressions, he had installed surveillance cameras in the basement and recorded all of his crimes, including the process of him hypnotizing someone to commit suicide.
He had used hypnosis to perfectly cover up his crime. If Chi Jiao hadn’t happened to catch him red-handed today, perhaps his crimes wouldn’t have been so easily exposed.
Chi Jiao knew it was more advantageous to speed things up with Huo Chen. She had just told him what had happened when Gong Lu came to the police station to pick her up.
When they first arrived at the police station, Huo Chen had asked her to contact her family.
Chi Jiao didn’t want Chi Mingwei to worry, so she called for Gong Lu.
After Gong Lu understood the situation, he immediately hired the most outstanding lawyer in China’s legal world to help Chi Jiao and Bai Weiyu indict Jin Yiming. They were determined to sentence him to death.
At the entrance of the police station, Huo Chen looked at the girl standing beside Gong Lu with a man’s black coat draped over her shoulders. His deep eyes were filled with scrutiny.
Actually, Huo Chen had only believed 70% of what Chi Jiao said earlier.
He felt that this girl before him was hiding something from him.
But according to the law and regulations, even if Chi Jiao had injured Jin Yiming, it was considered self-defense under the circumstances at that time.
As a teacher, Jin Yiming had deliberately hurt his students. Therefore, he deserved this outcome.
“Chi Jiao saw what was right and acted courageously. As a representative of the police force, I would like to express our gratitude to you,” Huo Chen said slowly to her.
No matter what, it was indeed because of this girl that Jin Yiming could be apprehended.
Chi Jiao smiled bashfully at him. “It’s my duty.”
“If any subsequent issues require your cooperation, we’ll have to trouble you.” Huo Chen curled his lips into a rare smile.
Chi Jiao nodded.
“Let’s go,” Gong Lu said as he looked down at her.
Chi Jiao nodded.
Bai Weiyu had already been picked up by her family. After such a huge incident, she had been shell-shocked and probably needed psychotherapy.
It was getting late. Gong Lu had initially wanted to bring Chi Jiao to Yan Zhengchen’s newly bought manor to have a look.
Yan Zhengchen had bought a European-style manor in White City that was passed down during the Republic of China era.
“I want to go home first.” Chi Jiao felt a little tired. “Let’s go visit another day.”
“Jiaojiao, are you alright?” Gong Lu glanced at her worriedly from the corner of his eye. “Do you want to go to the hospital first?”
Chi Jiao said, “I’m just a little tired. I’m fine, don’t worry.”
