Chapter 348 Witness
Chapter 348 Witness
"Who are you?"
The girl suspected to be Halsey was surrounded by four people. Myles and Silver ignored her questions and just held her arms.
"Ms. Halsey, do you know what crime you have committed?"
Navia had a serious look on her face, looking business-like.
Hines replied with a relaxed expression,
"Manslaughter, fleeing the scene of the crime, and even remaining at the scene of the crime and openly challenging law enforcement officers—all these charges combined probably only carry a sentence of less than 100 years."
One hundred years! ?
Halsey's eyes widened. I'm only 20 years old!
Navia instantly caught the change in Halsey's expression and laughed.
"However, there are ways around this. As long as you turn yourself in, the charges of fleeing and defying law enforcement officers will no longer apply. Your sentence may even be reduced due to your voluntary surrender."
Surrender...
Halsey looked at Navia and decided to struggle again, so she said in a trembling voice,
"Please, I don't know anything about manslaughter. I just accidentally ruined Mr. Linney's magic trick..."
Hines interrupted Halsey's speech with an impatient look on his face.
"You don't think we're arresting you without any evidence, do you? If you continue to refuse to cooperate, you'll spend the rest of your life in prison!"
Hines' words cut through Halsey's lies like a knife, and Halsey sighed helplessly.
Yeah, they were able to catch me and tell me about the murder, how could they not know anything...
"If I confess, can my sentence really be reduced?"
This time, Hines didn't say anything and gave the right to speak to Navia. It would be better to let two people play the roles of the good cop and the bad cop.
Navia also understood what Xines meant. She looked at Hailsey and said,
"Of course, if you can provide more information for this case, and if you can make meritorious contributions, perhaps your sentence can be shortened to less than five years.
After all, you were only trying to protect yourself, which ultimately led to Cowell's death."
According to Ying's reasoning, Navia tested Halsey's attitude. If she did not refute it, it would indirectly prove that Ying's reasoning was correct and Cowell was the real mastermind behind the girl's disappearance.
Halsey nodded slightly.
"I am willing to cooperate with you. I hope you won't lie to me."
At this time in the conference hall, the trial once again took a dramatic turn.
The water of the primordial fetal sea not only appeared in Cowell's backpack, but the same item was also found in Linnie's luggage.
In other words, Linny is likely to be Cowell's companion, and Egolia also seized this opportunity to attack Linny's side.
"Mr. Linny, please explain why there is the water of the original fetal sea in your luggage?"
Linny had no idea what was going on at this time. You know, he had never come into contact with the so-called original fetal sea water, not to mention that there was a bottle of sample in his backpack!
"No, that's not mine..."
"You mean, there was a problem with the guards and they stuffed the original fetal sea water that didn't belong to you into your luggage?"
Egolia's question didn't change Linnie's expression at all. Instead, the guard Vaughn, who was reporting the incident from below, looked a little unnatural.
Linnie opened his mouth but didn't know how to refute. Should he accuse the guards of framing him?
How is this possible? Not to mention there is no evidence, the logic alone doesn't make sense, unless...
Linny looked down at Vaughn, whose eyes were evasive, and muttered to himself,
"Unless, he is also Cowell's accomplice..."
......
In the live broadcast room, 886 watched the twists and turns of the plot and started automatically, eating potato chips and complaining casually.
"Although this is to ensure that every player can understand the plot, isn't this debate a bit too frivolous?"
"Please understand, host. If a lot of people can't understand the plot, they will be scolded."
"Yeah, yeah, we have to take care of every player, although I also think this trial is ridiculous."
"Where's Navia? Where's Sines? Help them!"
"Why rush? The plot has already given these two close-ups, they will probably appear soon."
"But no matter what, there are too many plot twists. Is this really a trial?"
......
The trial reached its climax, and the repeated reversals raised the audience's expectations to the highest level. The scales symbolizing victory were almost completely tilted towards Funina's side.
However, this is a theater, and before the curtain falls, anything is possible...
"Everyone, stop for a moment!"
Navia interrupted the trial process. Violet frowned at Navia who suddenly appeared.
"Miss, please respect the order of the trial and don't make loud noises."
Villette's action could be said to be quite gentle. Perhaps if the person standing in the audience was not Navia, the troublemaker would have been taken away by the guards by now.
"Your Excellency the Inquisitor, please let this young lady finish her speech. I believe you will not regret it."
Hines, along with Myles and Silver, carried the large box and walked towards the stage. With a "dong" sound, the magic box returned to its position yesterday.
Navia turned to look at Linny,
"Mr. Linny, I'll leave this magic trick of making the disappeared girl reappear to you!"
Linny, who was named, was stunned. His expression was a little ugly. Making the disappeared person appear, this was not considered magic, it could be said to be witchcraft!
but...
Linny looked at the magic box that Xines and the other two had brought up, and then he saw Navia's confident tone...
They found that Halsey?!
Linny relaxed instantly. There was no other way at this moment. He could just trust Navia once.
"Then let this magic show serve as the end of this trial."
Snapped!
The crisp snap of fingers echoed throughout the venue, and Linnet also made a "clang clang" sound in response.
Hines opened the door of the magic box at the right time and then stepped aside. All the audience's attention was attracted by Halsey in the box.
"Is this, Halsey?"
"What happened? Didn't she melt into water?"
"That's hilarious! I was wondering how it was possible that someone could dissolve in water."
"Now the most important witness has appeared. We'll know if Linnie is the murderer of the girl's kidnapping case just by asking him!"
"quiet!"
That Villette was also a little unbelievable, but he was the Grand Inquisitor, and maintaining order in the trial was his top priority.
Halsey came out a little awkwardly, and she kept pulling her hands together to relieve her tension.
"Um...sorry...that..."
"...I am Halsey, and I killed Cowell..."
