About half an hour later, Song Yang arrived at the hospital.

As soon as Qiao Jingyu walked to the door of the ward, Mu Xuefei rushed forward and held Qiao Jingyu's hands tightly, looking extremely anxious: "Jingyu, listen to me first! This matter is really very complicated. No matter what, I absolutely don't want to see you put yourself in danger because of these things in our family. If the situation is not good, you can..." At this point, Mu Xuefei bit her lips fiercely, and the crystal tears had already burst out uncontrollably, blurring her vision in an instant. She took a deep breath and said as if she had exhausted all her strength: "Just ignore this mess and hurry back to Jicheng."

Hearing this, Qiao Jingyu nodded slightly and responded softly: "I know what's going on, don't worry." Then, she gently patted the back of Mu Xuefei's hand, as if trying to calm her restless heart, indicating that she didn't need to worry too much, let alone think too much.

Then Mu Xuefei came to the outside of the ward again and solemnly told Song Yang. She repeatedly stressed that Qiao Jingyu's personal safety must be ensured and that all available connections could be mobilized. If she needed money during this period, she could contact her at any time. If she didn't have enough money, she could even ask her cousin for help. According to the time calculation, her cousin should be here soon.

Song Yang looked quite young, roughly estimated to be around 25 or 26 years old. He was a little thin, not as muscular as those strong men, but more like a scholar. Although his skin color was not particularly white, it was very clean.

In terms of overall temperament, Song Yang seems to be permeated with a rich scholarly aura. His every move reveals his refined demeanor, giving people an impression of being gentle, humble and polite.

Qiao Jingyu and Song Yang then walked out of the hospital together. Afterwards, they found a quiet coffee shop near the hospital.

At this moment, time is tight and the task is arduous, so Qiao Jingyu naturally won't beat around the bush or express her intentions in a tactful way. She asked straight to the point, "Brother Song, what is Uncle Mu's current situation?"

Earlier, when Mu Xuefei mentioned on the phone that someone wanted to know about her father's case, Song Yang had actually had a faint spark of hope in his heart. He secretly thought that perhaps Mu Xuefei had found some connections that he didn't know about and could properly handle this difficult case. However, when he saw the young, beautiful, and charming Qiao Jingyu in person, the light of hope in his heart, which had been swaying like a candle in the wind, was ruthlessly extinguished in an instant.

It's not that Song Yang judges people by appearance, it's because Mu Kaiyuan's case is complicated and entangled, and it's not easy for ordinary people to turn the situation around. In his opinion, a young and seemingly weak girl like Qiao Jingyu is unlikely to have the ability to deal with such difficulties and obstacles.

In Song Yang's eyes, Mu Kaiyuan is not only his respected teacher, but also an important person who gives him guidance and care like a father. Because of this, even if there is only an extremely slim one in ten million chance of saving Mu Kaiyuan, Song Yang is determined not to give up easily. So, Song Yang still concentrates on telling Qiao Jingyu every detail of the incident: "The teacher's current situation is really not optimistic. This case is almost a done deal. All the evidence, including witnesses and physical evidence, is complete. Now we are just following the relevant procedures step by step. I think it won't take long to reach the final conclusion."

What was shocking was that all the so-called witnesses and evidence were collected in less than a day. It was obvious that the other party was well prepared and had been planning for a long time. Qiao Jingyu's face became more and more serious, and she said in a serious tone: "Brother Song, please tell me the whole cause and effect of the whole incident again in detail, and don't miss any details."

Song Yang nodded with a focused and serious expression, and then said, "Yesterday afternoon, the military commander suddenly received an anonymous letter of complaint and related materials from an unknown source. This material clearly accused the teacher of taking bribes, and also attached a video recording of the teacher accepting money."

Hearing this, Qiao Jingyu couldn't help but frown and asked, "What kind of video is it?"

"The video of the teacher having dinner with the briber Lu Jinghai. Lu Jinghai is a local real estate developer. Previously, the army had an open bidding for a construction project. Lu Jinghai wanted to win the project, so he repeatedly wanted to invite the teacher to dinner. The teacher had refused before, but that time he kept waiting at the entrance of the army. The teacher wanted to talk to him clearly, and I accompanied the teacher at that time.

At the dinner table, Lu Jinghai wanted the teacher to reveal the bid price, but the teacher immediately turned cold.

Seeing that the teacher was angry, Lu Jinghai immediately changed the subject and did not mention the bidding again during the entire meal.

But this despicable guy actually took advantage of us not taking a break and slipped a bank card into the teacher's pocket. We didn't know it at the time, but the camera captured it clearly from that angle.

When the teacher went home at night, his wife found the bank card while doing the teacher's laundry. The teacher called me to ask what happened, but I didn't know. The teacher then realized that Lu Jinghai wanted to bribe him. The next morning, the teacher returned the bank card to Lu Jinghai.

"Were there any other people present when Uncle Mu was stuck?" Qiao Jingyu asked with a frown.

"No." Song Yang was furious when he said this. "This is what's so annoying. At first, Lu Jinghai denied that he had bribed someone. He said that although the video was real, the teacher rejected him at the time. But for some reason, at noon, he changed his statement again, saying that the teacher asked him for a bribe. He insisted that it was the teacher who hinted at him to give the money, and that the teacher took the card and didn't return it to him. Since there were no witnesses when the teacher returned the card, and now there is video evidence, the teacher is now unable to defend himself."

Qiao Jingyu frowned slightly after hearing this. The other party's calculation was very accurate, and there was indeed evidence. This matter was indeed a bit tricky. Qiao Jingyu thought for a while, then asked, "Have you talked to Lu Jinghai?"
