Chapter 223 I Can't Have My Fingerprints

The first half of the trial could be said to be Mu Yuning's battlefield. The one-sided evidence overwhelmed Mu Qing, who was unable to fight back and allowed the lawyer to describe Mu Qing as a heinous outlaw who sought wealth and life.

After all, according to the police investigation records presented by the plaintiff, Mu Qing’s fingerprints were on the spring steel knife, and there were only the footprints of Mu Qing, an outsider, on the first floor.

Regarding the grudge between Mu Qing and Mrs. Mu, there are also the testimonies of Wu’s mother and the servant as supporting witnesses, and there is also a video of Mu Qing pushing Mrs. Mu.

All kinds of evidence are presented, which makes people unable to resist.

The plaintiff's lawyer said: "The evidence is conclusive and the circumstances are bad. I beg the judge to punish him severely."

"Is the evidence conclusive?" Mu Qing muttered, her eyes lowered with a smile.

Mr. Mu asked for an intermission, but Mu Qing did not continue what he said.

Although Mu Yuning did not expect that the old man would take a break, the dawn of victory in the first half made her relax a little.

Mu Yuning was being filmed and asked questions by reporters at the entrance of the court. Mr. Mu applied to meet with Mu Qing and intended to settle out of court.

Mu Qing did not expect that Mr. Mu would apply for a meeting.

Meet Mr. Mu in the small conference room.

When Mr. Mu saw Mu Qing, his eyes turned red instantly. Mu Qing felt strange. Mr. Mu should have believed that Mu Qing had harmed Mrs. Mu. Why did he show such a look to her?

"Aqing, you have worked hard these days."

"Grandpa, you..."

Mr. Mu interrupted Mu Qing and said, "Although you have a flamboyant personality, I have an intuition that you will not attack the old woman."

Mr. Mu didn't notice that there was a shadow in the gap under the door, blocking the light coming through the gap.

Mu Qing said slowly, "I didn't expect grandpa to believe me."

"This matter is too logical and directional... plus Ning Ning insists on a public trial... but I find it a bit strange."

"Grandpa knows one thing. I did not hurt Mrs. Mu. When I arrived at the scene, Mrs. Mu was already injured."

Mr. Mu sighed: "The old lady is in a coma now. If she wakes up, maybe she can know what happened that night..."

Mu Qing said lightly: "Although I have no feelings for Mrs. Mu, she has suffered a lot now."

Mr. Mu was silent for a while and said: "Actually, you are..."

The door of the conference room opened, interrupting what Mr. Mu was about to say. Mu Yuning walked at the door like a cold wind, with chills all over her body.

"Grandpa, are you done talking? The court is about to begin."

Mr. Mu stood up and said, "Okay...it's agreed."

After the break, the trial resumed.

The judge asked: "Is there any intention to settle out of court?"

Mu Yuning said righteously: "No."

Mr. Mu looked at Mu Yuning, and his words were stuck in his throat, making it difficult to speak.

So far, the evidence provided by the plaintiff and the police has been presented, but Mu Qing, as the defendant, has not provided any evidence. What follows is a game between the lawyers of both sides to seize each other's loopholes.

Mu Yuning crossed her arms with a smile on her lips.

But the moment Mu Yuning was looking forward to didn't happen.

Mu Qing said this in court: "I did not harm Mrs. Mu."

"You said you didn't hurt Mrs. Mu, so you didn't? The evidence is solid, so you can quibble? The spring steel knife has your fingerprints on it."

Mu Qing said slowly: "There is no way there is my fingerprint on the steel knife. That fingerprint is fake."

The court was quiet for a moment.

Mu Yuning frowned. The police had already verified it. The fingerprint on it belonged to Mu Qing. How could it be fake?

Su Chen was obviously stunned. Mu Qing had never mentioned this matter during the interrogation. When it was said in court, Su Chen was as shocked as the others.

Mu Qing said in a calm tone: "I sent the steel knife for maintenance before it was lost. The steel knife was protected by beeswax when it was lost, so there is no way it has my fingerprints on it."

Mu Qing's lawyer Wan Liangfeng stood up and said: "Apply for fingerprint identification."

"The application is approved," the judge said.

Because fingerprint identification was required, the trial was postponed for two days. When Mu Yuning walked out of the court, reporters gathered around her.

"Miss Mu, would you like to ask Mu Qing whether applying for fingerprint identification will have any impact on the case?"

"Have you ever thought that she would bring up the matter of identification?"

Public trial reporters were not slow to get the news.

"What do you think, Miss Mu, about Mu Qing's delaying behavior?"

"Have you ever thought that Mu Qing used this method to prevent Miss Mu from taking care of Mrs. Mu?"

When Mu Qing came out, Mu Yuning was talking about seeking justice for Mrs. Mu.

Seeing Mu Qing appear, Mu Yuning said: "Although I don't know what is going on with the spring steel knife, I believe that evil will prevail over good, and delaying time is useless."

The reporters looked towards Mu Qing.

Mu Qing narrowed her eyes and gave Mu Yuning an unfriendly look.

Mu Yuning deliberately led reporters to misunderstand that Mu Qing was stalling for time, which could also lead to a wave of public opinion.

The reporters gathered around Mu Qing. Jing Yuan's eyes were too scary, and the reporters' questions were not too excessive.

"Does Miss Mu apply for trace identification to have evidence to prove her innocence, or does she simply want to delay time?"

"Miss Mu, are you confident that you are innocent?"

"Why did Miss Mu apply for trace identification only in court? You can apply at the police station, right?"

Mu Qing did not answer any questions. As they asked questions one after another, Mu Qing got into the car and left the court under the escort of Jing Yuan.

As expected, after today's incident was reported by the media, the direction of public opinion changed directly.

[Mu Qing is delaying time because he wants to kill Mrs. Mu.]

[What’s the point of delaying it for two days?]

[Mu Qing is a disaster star. A year after returning to the Mu family, Mrs. Mu was killed. 】

[Sure enough, there are some metaphysical things that it is better to believe than to believe that they exist or not.]

[Such a situation also happened to the Shen family in Haishi before. I think Mrs. Mu’s matter has something to do with her. 】

[What kind of identification? The police identified the fingerprint as Mu Qing’s. She is really shameless.]

For a time, the title of Mu Qing stalling for time and killing Mrs. Mu was reposted, liked and pinned to the top. Many people agreed with the comment. No matter what Mu Qing did, he would be subject to unwarranted malicious speculation.

Many people are concerned about Mrs. Mu's condition, and some people initiated prayers on Weibo. However, Mrs. Mu is still sleeping in the special ward.

In the dead of night, the two nurses left the ward and walked towards the nurse's desk. They chatted on and off the road. Gossip was always the topic.

"Did you watch today's court interview?"

"Looking at Master Jing, he looks so handsome."

"What you are focusing on is too strange. Shouldn't you be focusing on the outcome of the trial?"

"Following the outcome of the trial will not stop me from looking at the handsome guy. I really don't know what kind of ecstasy soup Mu Qing poured into Master Jing. How could Master Jing like that murderer?"

"I heard that Mrs. Mu's hand twitched a few times today and she seems to be waking up soon."

"Just wake up and it will be fine. If the old lady identifies the victim, it will be useless for Mu Qing to delay."

The two nurses didn't notice that as they passed through the safe passage, there was a pair of eyes looking sinisterly into the corridor, bloodthirsty desire revealed in their eyes without concealment.
