The female police officer's face flushed under Gu Nianzhi's sharp questioning. Balling her hands into fists, she said, "I didn't sentence him. I was speaking about a possible truth!"
"Unfortunately, there are no ambiguous facts in court. There is also no irresponsible conjecture." Gu Nianzhi's voice became icy. "Since you have spoken, I'll be able to question you now."
"Go ahead." The policewoman who cried out looked up. "I didn't lie. I'm not scared of your questioning."
Gu Nianzhi nodded and invited her to sit down in the witness stand to begin the cross examination. Gu Nianzhi looked down at her information about the policewoman. "Officer Tao, did you go to Hepingli Hospital eight days ago to provide the defendant, Gu Yanran, with legal aid?"
"Yes." Officer Tao was very emotional. "She was extremely traumatized at the time but still refused to call the police, so Officer Qiu and I tried to persuade her."
