    ?

    At dusk on the third day after Ji Xiaoxi went to visit Mo Li, Mo Li was brought out of the prison.

    "Go away! Don't come back!"

    The prison warden threw Mo Li out of the gate, and hurriedly closed the gate.  Everything happened so suddenly that Mo Li was at a loss.  At the corner to the southwest of the prison gate, stood Song Yu with a haggard face, and a girl with a black armband.

    The girl looked like she was about ten years old, a little younger than him.  The girl's face was full of tears.

    "Let's go, I'll take you somewhere!" Song Yu looked sad.  There was a sadness in his eyes that didn't match him.

    "What happened what happened?" Mo Li felt a dull pain in his chest.  Song Yu was wearing an all-black suit with a white flower pinned to his chest. He looked like he was going to a funeral.

    Funeral!

    Ji Xiaoxi's face appeared in Mo Li's mind.  Upon closer inspection, the girl next to Song Yu was somewhat similar to Ji Xiaoxi.

    The Ji family's old house in the suburbs.

    There was an endless stream of people who came to express their condolences.  Qi Yuan was dressed in black and stood at the door, welcoming and sending him off.  In the center of the mourning hall, there are two posthumous photos.  One is an old man in his sixties, and the other is Ji Xiaoxi.

    "Whatwhat the hell is going on?" Mo Li felt that he could not breathe for a moment.

    Was Ji Xiaoxi murdered because of investigating his case?

    "Sister Xiaoxi, died in a car accident. Mr. Ji, died of a heart attack."

    Tears inadvertently fell from the corners of Song Yu's eyes.  When the car accident happened, Ji Xiaoxi did not hesitate to protect him.  He was pushed out of the car before it spontaneously ignited.

    The police insisted that this was a pure traffic accident.  However, he saw that the person who caused the accident personally stabbed the dagger into Ji Xiaoxi's chest.

    It's just that, in the end, the body was charred, and the police turned a blind eye to the wound.

    After Mr. Ji heard the news of Ji Xiaoxi's death, he suffered a myocardial infarction. After being sent to the hospital, the rescue failed and he also passed away.

    "Mo Li, go and offer incense to Sister Xiaoxi." Song Yu clenched his fists.

    "Who did it?"

    "I don't know!" Song Yu silently wiped away tears.  "She asked me to tell you not to pursue this matter."

    Song Yu's body kept shaking, this was also Ji Xiaoxi's entrustment to him and Ji Ning.  Before you have power, you can't go head-to-head with powerful people.

    Without the support of power, truth and justice are castles in the air.

    "Mo Li, you are here!" Zeng Yue's face was also full of tears.  Ji Xiaoxi was his first taekwondo teacher, and she was the one who defended him back then.

    If at that time, he had directly brought the video evidence he recovered to Ji's house instead of making a phone call in the room of the juvenile prison, Ji Xiaoxi would not have died.  Why didn't he think that his room had been bugged.

    "Sister Xiaoxi, let me give this to you." Zeng Yue crossed over to Mo Li, and handed a silver ring to the tear-stained girl.

    "Xiao Ning, do you know what this means?"

    Ji Ning wiped her tears, took off the necklace around her neck, and hung the ring around her neck, "Well. The truth buried today, one day, I will get it back myself."

    "You know, that's good!" Zeng Yue heaved a sigh of relief, and Ji Ning was stronger than he imagined.

    As for the truth of this matter, after a few years, this girl will find it all back by her own strength.  All he needs to do is to live well and wait for that day to come.

    "Song Yu, Qiao Nuo and I are going to the United States. We will study there while taking over the family business."

    Qiao Nuo heard Zeng Yue call his name, said goodbye to the guests, and walked towards them.

    "Mo Li, I'm sorry. If I hadn't left you alone in the room that day, maybe" Qiao Nuo's eyes were full of guilt.

    "Jonuo, okay, let's go. If you don't go, you will miss the flight."

    Zeng Yue picked up Qiao Nuo's ears and walked straight out.  At a funeral, there is no need to be sensational.

    With a wave of Zeng Yue's hand, a silver-gray recording pen landed in Mo Li's palm, "Mo Li, forget about these things and start a new life. This is sister Xiaoxi's last wish."

    On the day of Ji Xiaoxi's funeral, there was a light rain in the sky.  In front of the tombstone, Ji Ning's suppressed tears, mixed with the rainwater, kept dripping down.

    Mo Li and Song Yu stood by her side, one on the left and the other on the right. Qi Yuan held an umbrella and waited for the three of them at the entrance of the cemetery.

      Facing the cold tombstone, Mo Li didn't know what to say.  The recording in the voice recorder was obviously deleted.  But the only recording left in it was the conversation between Qi Yuan and Ji Xiaoxi at that time.

    Qi Yuan: "So easy to agree to help me?"

    Ji Xiaoxi: "That kid, I hope he can have a new start."

    Qi Yuan: "Think about the regrets from a year ago?"

    Ji Xiaoxi: "Half and half. Didn't you say that the child was born to play the piano?"

    Qi Yuan: "But, thisis dangerous."

    Ji Xiaoxi: "Afraid of danger, why are you still a criminal lawyer! It would be great if music could give him a brand new life."

    Qi Yuan: "After this matter is over, you can tell him yourself."

    A year ago, when he was involved in a murder case, Ji Xiaoxi came to see him, but in the end he didn't take up his case.  On the day of the verdict, Ji Xiaoxi came to the court hearing.

    When he was transferred to the juvenile prison, she said sorry to him.

    In fact, she never owed him anything.  On the contrary, she helped him a lot.  He was able to transfer to the juvenile prison because Ji Xiaoxi secretly found a relationship.

    "Mo Li, after that, what are your plans?" Song Yu's voice kept shaking.

    Ji Ning has no way to go back to Ji's house now. Once the two pillars of Ji Xiaoxi and Mr. Ji die, the Ji family will fall apart.  Now they are busy dividing the family property.

    Ji Ning's biological parents have also passed away.  Moreover, what's more troublesome is that both Ji Xiaoxi and Mr. Ji have bought a large amount of life insurance for themselves, and the beneficiaries are both Ji Ning.

    "Mo Li, until Xiao Ning turns 18, I will stay by her side and stay in the Sequoia Orphanage. How about you?" Song Yu put his hand lightly on the girl's shoulder.  The girl was sobbing constantly, her hand was pulling the silver ring around her neck.

    "I haven't thought it through yet!" Mo Li lowered his head, tears streaming down the corners of his eyes.

    Stay by Ji Ning's side and take care of her. Does he really have the qualifications?  Ji Xiaoxi died because of him!

    "Mo Li, let's find a new beginning together! This is sister Xiaoxi's last wish. This is also the future we owe her."

    "Song Yu"

    "Mo Li, we must have a new start. What we lost today, one day, we have to get it back with our own hands! Isn't it?" (Remember the website URL: www.hlnovel.com
