Yu Yi silently watched her project the file materials on the side wall, which Meng Qing had already shown her before, but she had not mentioned it, only watching the materials played by the woman.
After the thin woman finished displaying each page, Yu Yi calmly said a statement that would make her want to vomit blood: “These are not my actions. I am only fourteen, but the first page of the file states that Yu Yi became an executor at seventeen. How could a fourteen-year-old do what was done at seventeen?”
The thin woman raged internally, but Yu Yi’s comment provoked her. Coldly, she closed the projection on her terminal. “It doesn’t matter if you don’t admit your crimes. The tribunal will decide based on material evidence.”
Yu Yi counted the number of meal deliveries, and after six times, they took her out of the room.
When she left, her wrists suddenly and involuntarily drew together. She was startled to find the two metal rings on her wrists touching. Upon careful examination, they were not actually connected and could still slide up and down, but she could not separate her wrists. The two metal rings on her wrists seemed to be locked together by an invisible force, completely inseparable.
The tribunal was much smaller than Yu Yi had imagined, not even as large as the guest hall of the Hou residence.
She was brought to sit in the center of the tribunal, with a high platform in front of her. A person in a black robe sat seriously behind it. Seven people sat on one side of the high platform, and six on the other, including the three men and one woman who had arrested her earlier, plus two others she did not recognize.
After the trial began, the presiding judge read out some tribunal rules, and Yu Yi listened silently, promising to honestly explain the facts she knew.
Lin Bai sat in the audience, watching Yu Yi in the defendant’s seat at the center of the tribunal. When she turned back, their eyes met for a moment, and he felt something strange.
He did not understand why Meng Qing, who was in the same situation as himself, was so persistent about her case.
Lin Bai’s terminal was recording the trial proceedings and transmitting audio data to Meng Qing’s terminal.
