Chapter 137 - 137:  135: Trial – An Unexpected Turnaround

“I am Di Yelei’s wife, the person whom Old Man Li just mentioned! Based on the testimonies and evidence just presented, I have a few words to say.”

So, she was the suspect’s new wife? The onlookers were buzzing with discussion.

County Magistrate was getting a headache. This mundane murder case somehow caught the attention of the higher-ups, who issued an order for swift resolution!

With all the evidence and testimonies at hand, he wished he could close the case immediately! Liu Sisi’s interference was unwelcome!

“Well then! Since this case involves you, just say what you need to say!”

“Thank you, Your Honor.”

Liu Sisi stepped forward and approached Diao Shanbiao: “Diao Shanbiao, you said you witnessed me committing adultery with Big Mouth Li, and then Di Yelei caught us, cut off Li’s descendants, and strangled him with an apron rope. Is that true?”

Diao Shanbiao nodded firmly: “Of course.”

“Very well.”

Liu Sisi then went to Old Man Li: “Old Uncle Li, you just said Sisi seduced Big Mouth Li unsuccessfully, then colluded with Di Yelei to murder Li. Is that correct?”

“That’s the truth! You were married to a remote Upper Village because no one wanted you, a pair of worn-out shoes, except for Di Yelei, a widower who took you as his new wife!”

These words made Liu Sisi’s face turn pale with anger!

“Old Man Li, I suggest you be more careful with your words, leave a way out for yourself! You should understand the principle of ‘spilled water cannot be gathered up!’ ” Di Yelei yelled angrily, daring anyone to harm Sisi, they’ll have to deal with him first!

“I’ve never lied, my words are backed by my conscience.” Old Man Li stubbornly refused to back down, determined to nail down the wicked woman’s sins today.

“Such conscience!”

Liu Sisi suddenly bowed to the County Magistrate: “Your Honor, can Sisi and her husband prove their innocence once Sisi can show that it was not her who slept with Big Mouth Li on that day?”

Di Yelei on the side became anxious!

“Sisi! Don’t talk nonsense, this has nothing to do with you, step back now! I have solid evidence to prove that I am not the killer, don’t be afraid!”

Zhang Peng in the crowd heaved a sigh of relief!

He knew that Liu Sisi was still a virgin, and the prospect of saving Yelei gave him a kind of happiness.

“Silence! The suspect must not interrupt!”

County Magistrate stopped Di Yelei, then turned to Liu Sisi: “You just said you have evidence, show it to us!”

“Thank you, Your Honor. May I ask if there is a midwife in the governmental office for inspection?”

Liu Sisi’s cheeks couldn’t help but blush.

County Magistrate was taken aback, did she want to prove her innocence by showing she was pregnant? However, this reason seemed far-fetched.

But he had no reason to stop her, so he nodded: “Of course, there is a midwife. Someone, bring Granny Xu here quickly.”

While the governmental office’s runners went to fetch Granny Xu, the County Magistrate explained: “Granny Xu is a renowned midwife in our county. Not only does she deliver babies for the wives of wealthy families, she is also responsible for the final body examination of the selected beauties in Macheng County during the talent selection. She is very experienced.”

It was clear to everyone what the County Magistrate meant. If even the selected beauties had to go through Granny Xu, her words would certainly be credible.

Soon, Granny Xu was brought in with assistance.

Someone whispered in her ear and pointed to Liu Sisi. Although they didn’t know what medicine Liu Sisi was selling in her stomach, the person seemed to be sure of her plan. They had no choice but to wait for the two people in the compartment to come out and find out the result.

Soon, Granny Xu came out of the room and whispered in the Lord County Magistrate’s ear.

The County Magistrate obviously hesitated, eyes wide and focused on Di Yelei. Subsequently, he waved Granny Xu off and then picked up the wooden block and slammed it down.

“Daring Diao Shanbiao! How dare you deceive I, the Official! Ms. Liu is actually still… still a virgin. Yet you dared to accuse her, confess quickly!”

“Ah? —”

It can be called stirring waves with a single stone!

A married woman for several months was still a virgin?

Diao Shanbiao’s face changed drastically, his expression ashen as he slumped to the ground!

Looking at Liu Sisi, who walked out of the room with her usual calm demeanor, everyone started to murmur!

Recalling what Diao Shanbiao had said before, about the positions, the actions, as if he had witnessed them personally, it all seemed so pale in the face of the results!

Liu Sisi suddenly knelt before the County Magistrate: “Your Honor! Sisi was wrongly accused in her mother’s home and her reputation was maliciously destroyed, forcing her to marry into the Di Family as a new wife. Fortunately, my husband felt pity for Sisi’s youth, and although we have been married for over three months, we have not slept together. Today, seeing my husband suffering from an injustice, someone deliberately slanders and defames Sisi again. Sisi can’t bear it any longer, and resorts to this trick. I hope the County Magistrate can handle it fairly and restore innocence for Sisi and my husband!”

After that, Liu Sisi knocked her head three times in succession.

Especially Old Man Li.

He suddenly recalled the words Liu Sisi emphasized a moment ago, “spilled water cannot be retrieved.”

Elderly Mr. Di and Di Cheng were also surprised!

After all, the matchmaker had told them about Liu Sisi’s past before she married into the family, and she even tried to escape and jumped into a river on her wedding night. With all these events, who could have thought that she was still a virgin?

Zhang Peng wasn’t surprised. He had even prescribed a medicine for Di Yelei. He just didn’t expect Yelei not to use it.

What he didn’t know was that the medicine had been discarded by Liu Sisi after being soaked in water when she fell into the bathtub…

Everyone’s eyes were fixed on Di Yelei, and their hearts couldn’t help but ponder.

Di Yelei’s face was full of pain. He felt useless for having Liu Sisi use this method to help clear his name. He really was a coward!

Only Nan Tianzong stood in a shadowy corner of the hall, his face dark and unclear, wondering what to think.

“Diao Shanbiao, what do you have to say? Making false accusations can lead to jail!”

The County Magistrate slammed the wooden block.

The governmental office’s runners on both sides trembled with their killing rods, and the sound of “mighty” echoed neatly throughout the hall.

Until now, Diao Shanbiao was still persevering, crawling on the ground: “Your Honor, everything the commoner said is true, and I did not lie. Please judge wisely!”

It was simply a divine twist!

The so-called witnessing the act of love, the details of the murder, and the resolute words, at this moment, had turned into mockery!

A stark, naked mockery!

“Your Honor, please look here!”

Liu Sisi pointed to Diao Shanbiao’s exposed arm while kneeling down, “The injuries on Diao Shanbiao’s face and hands are not fake, but the skin covered by his clothes is intact. If someone tortures him, they would choose to do so in secret. Instead of announcing it to the world, they wouldn’t leave his body intact and just swell his entire face.”
