Chapter 230 The Possibility of Standing Up

Qu Mingjun didn't answer, but looked at Mu Zi.

Mu Zi asked him lightly: "Did you kill someone?"

Xia Chenan couldn't react to such a direct question, he was stunned for a moment before replying: "...No, I didn't kill anyone!"

"If there is no murder, there is still hope in the case." Mu Zi raised the corners of her lips in an inaudible way.

Xiao Ming, who was standing beside her, couldn't feel at ease when he heard this.

When every murderer was caught, he said he didn't kill anyone, but in fact?

He glanced sideways at Mu Zi, thinking: She doesn't really believe Xia Chenan's words, does she? Miss, don't be so naive...

Xia Chenan began to talk about the day when the crime happened.

On November 2, he happened to pass by the kindergarten and saw Zhou Xuanxuan standing alone on the side of the road. Out of kindness, he approached and asked if he could take her home. He agreed to the little girl's request and bought candies and skipping ropes To Zhou Xuanxuan——

Xia Chen'an slowly narrated, his deep voice was the only one in the meeting room.

"Do you know how many days are left before the trial?" Mu Zi suddenly interrupted him.

Xia Chenan was taken aback by her question, "... six days?"

"Yes, six days. Excluding the time we eat and sleep, the real time that can be used for investigation and evidence collection is less than a hundred hours."

Mu Zi leaned forward slightly, getting closer, her clear eyes showed a bit of coldness under the light, "So, let's not waste any more time, shall we?"

Xia Chen'an was stunned, and then there was a little anger on his face: "Aren't you my lawyer? Aren't you here to help me!"

"I'm sorry, we haven't accepted your case for the time being." Mu Zi looked indifferent and shook her head lightly, "If you continue to lie, then we will never accept this case."

"I didn't lie." Xia Chenan's face turned red with excitement, and he gritted his teeth, "I didn't kill anyone either!"

"No, you lied." Mu Zi's tone was very light but also very firm.

She looks cute and soft, clearly a young girl with exquisite carvings, but there is a hidden sharpness in her eyes, with a calm and deep restraint that does not match her age.

Xia Chen'an was inexplicably timid, and looked away a little guilty, not daring to look directly into Mu Zi's eyes.

"If you really want to help Zhou Xuanxuan go home, why don't you find a way to contact her parents? There are so many toys in the supermarket, why did you choose skipping rope? You and Zhou Xuanxuan got separated on Pingkang Avenue, where there is a large area of ​​demolished old houses, Nothing, what did you take her there for?"

A series of questions made Xia Chenan's face change, and even Qu Mingjun looked at Mu Zi in surprise.

If you keep asking like this, Xia Chen'an's suspicion will become even bigger, miss!

Mu Zi's voice was calm and unwavering, with a hint of coldness: "Xia Chen'an, you should be thankful that this murder case is a serial murder case, otherwise you really have no chance of turning over!"

When Xia Chenan heard the words, he didn't know what to think, and lowered his head with a pale face.

Qu Mingjun looked bewildered, and asked Mu Zi in a low voice: "Why is it a serial murder case, so there is a possibility of turning over?"

"Because of time." Mu Zi said, "The first victim of this serial murder case appeared three and a half years ago. At that time, he should only be eighteen... No, to be precise, he was seventeen years old. It's unlikely that a seventeen-year-old boy committed an almost flawless murder."

Qu Mingjun touched his nose. What was he doing when he was seventeen? Playing basketball, playing video games, pursuing female classmates...

But based on this alone, do you think Xia Chenan is not the murderer? It still feels far-fetched...

Qu Mingjun subconsciously looked at Mu Zi.
