Live fortune telling: Sending a top star to prison right from the start.

Chapter 189 As long as a person is alive, there is hope.

It was past midnight when the police station was still lit up.

Based on the clues provided by Lu Rou, Fang Jinhan investigated Xue Hao's relative.

According to the case file, his name is Gong Tong. He raped Xue Hao's sister, Xiao Ran, on the day of Xue Hao's wedding and was sentenced to four years in prison.

Fang Jinhan took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and tried to piece together the scene from that year in her mind based on the criminal record.

"Xue Hao, we really owe you a lot of help today, thanks to your sister. She's been a huge help both inside and out." Xue Hao's friend patted him on the shoulder, his face slightly drunk.

"Of course, my sister is always reliable." Xue Hao smiled broadly, his eyes filled with pride for his sister.

At this moment, Xiao Ran was in her room, changing out of the clothes she had gotten dirty while helping out.

She hummed a little tune, genuinely happy for her brother's happiness.

Suddenly, the door was gently pushed open, and Xiao Ran subconsciously turned her head, her smile instantly freezing on her face.

"You... what are you doing here?" Xiao Ran looked at Gong Tong in horror.

She was not familiar with this distant relative at all, only seeing him once or twice during holidays. She disliked him very much because of the ill intent in his eyes when he looked at her.

Gong Tong's face was flushed, clearly indicating he had drunk quite a bit, and his eyes revealed a hint of ill intent.

"Ranran, you look so beautiful today." As he spoke, he approached Xiao Ran step by step.

"Don't come any closer!" Xiao Ran retreated in terror, her back pressed tightly against the wall. "If you come any closer, I'll call for help!"

Gong Tong acted as if he hadn't heard her, and suddenly lunged at Xiao Ran, covering her mouth with his hand.

"What are you shouting for? If you dare to make a sound, you'll be sorry!"

Xiao Ran struggled desperately, scratching Gong Tong's arm with both hands, her nails leaving bloody marks on his skin, but Gong Tong remained unmoved, his eyes filled only with madness and desire.

"Let me go, you madman!"

Taking advantage of the moment when Gong Tong loosened his grip slightly, Xiao Ran shouted for help.

"Say that again!" Gong Tong, enraged and embarrassed, slapped Xiao Ran across the face. "Believe me or not, I'll kill you!"

Xiao Ran was so dizzy from the beating that her strength to resist gradually diminished.

Gong Tong took the opportunity to drag her to the bed and committed an appalling act of violence.

After an unknown amount of time, Gong Tong acted as if nothing had happened, straightened his clothes, and coldly looked at Xiao Ran, who was curled up on the bed crying.

"If you dare to utter a single word about what happened today, you and your family will suffer!" With that, he swaggered out of the room.

Xiao Ran lay on the bed, her eyes vacant, tears streaming down her face.

Her world collapsed at that moment; the dual trauma to her body and mind almost robbed her of the ability to think.

After an unknown amount of time, Xiao Ran heard her brother Xue Hao's voice: "Ranran, what's wrong? Why is the door locked from the inside?"

Xiao Ran snapped out of her daze. She opened the door with trembling hands, and the moment she saw Xue Hao, all the grievances and pain welled up in her heart.

She threw herself into her brother's arms and burst into tears: "Brother, I...I was...Gong Tong..."

Xue Hao's face instantly turned ashen. He hugged his sister tightly, saying, "Don't be afraid, I'm here. I won't let him get away with this!"

The family was furious when they learned of this.

Xue Hao's father slammed his fist on the table: "This beast cannot be let off so easily, we must call the police!"

"Yes, call the police and make him receive the punishment he deserves!" Xue Hao's mother, her face streaked with tears, looked at her daughter with heartache.

"Ranran, chastity is nothing. As long as you are alive, there is hope."

"I'll just pretend I was bitten by a rabid dog!"

With the support of her family, Xiao Ran endured the shame and called the police.

Police quickly launched an investigation and found Gong Tong's hair and clothing fibers at the scene, which corroborated Xiao Ran's description.

The semen test confirmed that it belonged to Gong Tong, and with conclusive evidence, the police quickly came to him.

"Gong Tong, we are police officers. We suspect you are involved in a rape case. Please come with us."

Gong Tong initially tried to argue, "You must have made a mistake, I didn't do anything!"

"The evidence is conclusive, do you still want to deny it?" The police presented the evidence they had collected to Gong Tong one by one.

Gong Tong's face turned deathly pale. He lowered his head and said nothing more.

In the interrogation room.

With his head bowed, Gong Tong confessed to his crimes in the face of overwhelming evidence.

“On the day of Xue Hao’s wedding, I drank too much and made a mistake in a moment of anger.”

Repeating over and over, "I was completely out of my mind back then, I know I was wrong, I really know I was wrong..."

He then tried to salvage the situation: "We're all relatives, there's no need to make things so ugly."

These words were like a fire, completely igniting Xue Hao's anger.

Xue Hao suddenly stood up and slammed his hand heavily on the table, making the documents on the table jump. He glared at Gong Tong and roared.

"You distant relative, do you think we care? You've done something as despicable as a pig or a dog, and you still think you can just brush it off?"

Gong Tong was still not giving up and made another absurd proposal: "If word gets out, it will be bad for your sister's reputation. I'm willing to marry her."

Xue Hao seemed to have heard the biggest joke in the world. His eyes reddened, veins bulged on his forehead, and he could no longer suppress his anger, so he started cursing.

"You dare mention that?! You scum, you're not even fit to carry my sister's shoes, let alone marry her? What a toad trying to eat swan meat, utterly delusional!"

Xue Hao was nearly out of control, and the police officers nearby quickly stepped forward to pull him away and comfort him, helping him calm down.

The law will not make an exception for Gong Tong just because of his few apologies and absurd suggestions.

Faced with irrefutable evidence, the court delivered its verdict in accordance with the law, and Gong Tong received the punishment he deserved.

Ultimately, Gong Tong was sentenced to four years in prison for rape.

He was released early because of his good behavior in prison.

The Xue family was also brutally murdered that same year.

Fang Jinhan inexplicably trusted Lu Rou, but the police rely on evidence when handling cases.

Right now, the most important thing is to collect evidence that Gong Tong killed Xue Hao's family out of hatred.

Fang Jinhan was lost in thought when Lu Jiaheng tiptoed over and said in a low voice, "It's so late, let's go back."

Fang Jinhan then came to her senses and glanced at the clock on the wall. The hands had already silently moved to the next day.

She organized the files.

The two walked out of the police station. The streets were unusually quiet at night. Lu Jiaheng took Fang Jinhan home, and neither of them spoke much along the way.

When they arrived at Fang Jinhan's building, Fang Jinhan looked up and said to Lu Jiaheng, "Thank you for bringing me back."

Lu Jiaheng smiled and said, "Why are you being so polite with me? We're partners. Go upstairs and rest. We'll continue the investigation tomorrow. We're sure we'll find evidence and bring Gong Tong to justice."

Fang Jinhan nodded, turned around and walked into the stairwell.

Lu Jiaheng stood there, watching her figure disappear into the darkness, before turning and leaving.
