C24 Proof of Absence

The others felt that what Hua Ning said made sense, but they also felt that Xiao Chennai's suspicions were not unreasonable.

Hua Ning frowned slightly, and the arrogance in her heart also rose up, "Leader, I'll go find Lian Xiangsheng tomorrow."

Hearing that, Jian Chenyi shook his head, "I think Lian Xiangsheng will not say anything under the lawyer's instructions."

Hua Ning also knew that, but she still wanted to try. She raised her head and looked stubbornly at Xiao Chennai, "Leader, I want to try."

Xiao Chennai pondered for a moment and nodded, "Go on. Take care of yourself."

Early the next morning, Hua Ning went to Lian Xiangsheng's factory.

"Lian Xiangsheng, can we talk about it?" Hua Ning asked politely outside Lian Xiangsheng's office, "I hope you can cooperate!"

Lian Xiangsheng twitched his mouth and opened the door of the office, "Sit!"

Hua Ning heaved a sigh of relief. It would be best if Lian Xiangsheng was willing to talk. Before coming here, she had already prepared herself to be rejected.

Lian Xiangsheng lowered his head and took out his phone. He didn't know who he was messaging, so he asked casually, "What do we talk about? We haven't finished talking yesterday?"

Hua Ning took out her notebook, "Mr. Lian, where were you the day of the incident? What were you doing? I hope you can answer these questions."

Lian Xiangsheng smiled lightly, as if he was not angry, "No problem."

After he finished speaking, the office door was knocked.

"Enter!" Lian Xiangsheng did not seem to be surprised at all.

The office door was pushed open. It was Lian Xiangsheng's lawyer, the one he had met last night.

This lawyer's expression was much better than yesterday.

Hua Ning understood that Lian Xiangsheng was messaging this lawyer.

"Director Lian guessed that you would come today, so he asked me to prepare everything." The lawyer's tone was also much better than yesterday. As he spoke, he placed a stack of photos in front of Hua Ning. "On the day of the crime, Director Lian went to the clubhouse in the suburbs to relax. I went to the club yesterday and checked the surveillance cameras. These are the photos printed out."

Hua Ning took them. There were about ten of them, all of them from the morning to the night.

Hua Ning frowned and clenched her fists slowly.

The lawyer chuckled. "I believe that these photos are enough to prove Director Lian's innocence. Director Lian has already said what he should say. You won't be able to get anything out of him, so…"

He paused for a moment and said in a very unpleasant tone, "I hope you don't waste your time."

Hua Ning exhaled and calmed herself down. After a while, she raised her head and asked, "Can I have these photos?"

"Of course you can. I've printed more than ten of them. You can have as many as you want. I've also brought a copy of the video. If you want it, just take it." After saying that, the lawyer placed a small silver USB on the table.

Hua Ning bent down and picked up the USB drive. She took a deep breath and said, "Then sorry for bothering you. Goodbye."

After Hua Ning left, the lawyer and Lian Xiangsheng looked at each other, and the smile on their faces disappeared.

The lawyer said in a low voice, "I think he won't come again in the future."

After Hua Ning returned to the police station, Ding Yu came up to her and said, "How is it? Did you get any useful information?"

Hua Ning's face was bitter as she shook her head, "No, Mr. Lian didn't even go to the Snossen Community on the day of the crime."

As she spoke, she placed the photo and the USB on the table, "This is the evidence."

Hearing that, Ding Yu took the photo and the USB, "I'll go and study it to see if it's true."

Hua Ning's face was gloomy. She had a premonition that these pieces of evidence were all true. Otherwise, how could the lawyer dare to give her the fake evidence?

After all, they could verify the authenticity of these photos and videos at the clubhouse. They also had their own technical department and could also identify the videos.

She returned to her seat listlessly. Her eyes were empty, and she did not know what she was thinking.

Ding Yu saw her performance.

This evidence was equivalent to overturning all of her previous speculations.

He understood in his heart what Hua Ning was conflicted about. She had finally shown her ability in front of Xiao Chennai, but now, she had become like this.

He went forward and approached Hua Ning.

Hua Ning was in a daze and did not feel his existence at all.

He reached out his hand and knocked on Hua Ning's table.

Hua Ning raised her head, her eyes filled with confusion.

Ding Yu smiled, "Such a beautiful girl should smile more. It makes us feel better to look at her."

Hua Ning rolled her eyes in annoyance, "I'm not your mood regulator. I can laugh if I want to, and I can cry if I want to. Besides, have you ever tried to smile and wrinkle your face?"

"Oh, I really don't know." He reached out his hand and placed a few pieces of chocolate on his palm, "Eat some. Tasty food can make your mood better."

Before Hua Ning could reach out to take it, he had already placed the chocolate on the table.

Hua Ning stared blankly at the chocolate on the table, her eyes suddenly turning red.

After a while, she suddenly laid on the table and did not get up for a long time.

Ding Yu returned to his own table and continued to study the video.

At this time, Xiao Chennai was in the monitoring room, repeatedly observing the video of Lian Peng being summoned. At the beginning, Lian Peng kept his head down.

When they first interrogated Lian Xiangsheng and left Lian Peng alone, Lian Peng did not seem to be worried at all, and he seemed to be very calm.

The sound of knocking on the door rang out. He took off his earphones and said, "Enter."

Hua Ning walked in, her eyes still red and her hands still holding the silver USB.

"Leader, I went to find Lian Xiangsheng. He provided this surveillance video, proving that he didn't go to the Snossen Community on the day of the crime. Ding Yu has studied this video, and there are no signs of editing. It should be true." Hua Ning spoke with a slight nasal sound.

Xiao Chennai was stunned for a moment before he reached out to take the USB drive. After a moment, he said in a low voice, "Thank you!"

Hua Ning pretended to be indifferent, "It's not hard at all. By the way, where are Cheng and Jian Chenyi? Why haven't I seen them?"

Ever since she came back, Ding Yu was the only one left.

"Not long after you left, they went to find Lian Peng."

As they were talking, Jian Chenyi and Cheng Sheng came in.

"Why are you back so soon? Did you find anything?" As Xiao Chennai spoke, he kept staring at the monitor screen.

Cheng Sheng said, "We found that Lian Peng went to the insurance company to withdraw the insurance money and then went home."

Jian Chenyi added, "There's nothing unusual about his behavior and expression. There's nothing we can find out from him, so we came back first."

Xiao Chennai nodded and pointed to the screen, "This video is very interesting. Everyone, take a look."

The video was obviously edited. Lian Peng sat on the chair with his head lowered. The speed was obviously increased, and the time beside him was jumping very fast.
