Ms. Doctor Divine

Chapter 1553 Infighting 2

Mingjing Hall quieted down when the leader struck the table.

"Bring Mrs. Gu here." The leader sounded serious but quiet, as if he were summoning a dead woman.

Elder Miss had offered the evidence, and Gu Zhenkang had confessed. So it was almost certain that Mrs. Gu killed Ms. Lin personally and she would be executed, but Gu Zhenkang might survive if the Phoenix Girl excused him.

This was the most far-reaching and complicated case he had taken over since he became the leader, but it went the fastest too. Elder Miss had found the evidence, and the defendant confessed without using any torment.

When Mrs. Gu was escorted there, she looked unkempt. Her clothes were in a mess and her hairpins as well as ornaments were all on the floor.

She almost escaped from the backdoor when the people from Dali Temple went to catch her. It took them a while to finally get her.

"Mrs. Gu, did you kill Ms. Lin?" The leader asked again.

"No, Ms. Lin died because she was sick. She was narrow-minded and could not accept that the Old Master had many concubines. She died in depression, not because of me. You put the accusation on my head so casually. You should be reasonable, Phoenix Girl." Mrs. Gu tried to defend herself, as if she were wrongfully convicted.

The leader laughed.

He looked at Mrs. Gu, then at Gu Zhenkang. He continued. "Officer Gu has confessed. He said that you drugged her, and he has nothing to do with it."

Mrs. Gu's eyes widened as she heard what the leader said. She glared at Gu Zhenkang. "You are so stupid!"

It happened years ago, and they did not even have any evidence. As long as they insisted on being innocent, there was nothing they could do to them. She could even claim that she was innocent, and that the Phoenix Girl was bullying her with her power.

They might have no glory, but she had a lot of private money in the bank, so they could at least spend their life with abundant money and food.

However, he was stupid enough to confess to it all. Now they are done.

Mrs. Gu was looking at him in disbelief.

Gu Zhenkang ignored her.

He was stupid? If he did not say it, it would all have been his fault, and he would have been sentenced to death.

Mrs. Gu realized what Gu Zhenkang was thinking as she looked at him.

"Gu Zhenkang!"

"…"

"You said that I was alone in killing Ms. Lin?"

"…"

"You always looked down at Ms. Lin, but you had to marry her for her dowries! You got her dowries and the Gu Family became rich, but you found her disgusting and thought that she did not deserve you! So you indicated that I should kill her so that she would not be seen at the Gu Family, so that you would feel better."

"…"

"I drugged her, but you are not innocent, either! You told me to drug her and you saw me putting the drug inside. You are also an accomplice, Gu Zhenkang. If I die, I am bringing you down with me."

"…"

"I killed Ms. Lin, but I never craved for the Lin Family's money. You got the Lin Family's money and told me to kill Ms. Lin!" Mrs. Gu almost screamed.
