I just wanted to cultivate immortality, but I was forced to open a harem

We must understand the reason behind the matter.

No matter what, Kato Megumi must not be allowed to suffer an unjust accusation!

Lin Hezhen secretly made up his mind and took out his cell phone to contact his personal lawyer.

Although he is reluctant to admit it, Kato Megumi's mental state is very bad. Without the help of a lawyer, it is difficult to guarantee that things will not develop into an irreversible situation.

Lin Hezhen dialed a familiar number and the other party answered the call soon.

"Moshimoshi, Miss Mai, I have a very difficult case here, and I need you to come over...ah, have you seen it on TV? No, it's not me, it's Hui...her condition is not very good now, and she urgently needs your help...I will pay you double, please..."

Lin Hezhen said a series of things, and after hanging up the phone, a relieved expression appeared on his face.

Mai Sakurajima, a female star who was once a well-known actress active on the screen, chose to retire at the stage when her career was rapidly rising, which surprised the Chinese people.

Although the reason is unknown, due to her strong will, people had to accept the news with regret, watching this rising female star leave the entertainment industry and gradually forget about her.

After fading from the public eye, Mai Sakurajima became a workplace elite.

She studied law in college and became a lawyer after graduation. She successfully won many cases and in just a few years, she established her own law firm and became a prominent figure in the legal field.

Since Hayashi Kazuma had a good relationship with Sakurajima Mai in the past, she has always been his personal lawyer.

When Kato Megumi was arrested this time, Lin Hezhen thought of Sakurajima Mai first, hoping that she could help.

Lin Hezhen is very confident in Sakurajima Mai's abilities, and believes that as long as Sakurajima Mai is there, things will be properly handled.

......

After waiting for a while, a luxury business car slowly stopped in front of the police station.

A woman with long flowing hair, beautiful features, fair skin and a well-proportioned figure got out of the car. She was wearing a black windbreaker and a pair of short leather boots. She had a graceful figure and was extremely beautiful.

She is none other than Mai Sakurajima.

Looking at that stunningly beautiful face, Lin Hezhen felt dazed and recalled every detail of their past.

Once upon a time, the other person also had such a peerless beauty, and he was once deeply in love with such an elegant and beautiful girl.

However, at that time, they were unable to be together due to various reasons.

Thinking about it now, if he had not met Kato Megumi, perhaps he and Sakurajima Mai would not have missed each other.

But how can there be so many ifs in this world?

Lin Hezhen took a deep breath, collected his thoughts, and walked towards Sakurajima Mai.

"Ms. Mai, long time no see," he greeted.

Sakurajima Mai looked at him with a smile, stretched out her right hand and held Lin Hezhen's right hand, and said: "Long time no see. Sorry, there was a traffic jam on the road and kept you waiting for a long time."

"No, I'm already very grateful that you came to save my wife." Lin Hezhen said humbly.

When she heard the word "wife", a hint of sadness flashed across Sakurajima Mai's eyes, but then she returned to her normal expression.

"I have heard a little about this matter. It has made a lot of noise in the media, but I believe that it was not done by Kato Megumi." Sakurajima Mai said in a steady tone.

"I thought so too, so I came to you for help. Ms. Mai, I hope you can defend Hui's innocence." Lin Hezhen said earnestly.

Sakurajima Mai said calmly: "Don't worry, since I promised you, I will naturally do my best to defend Kato Megumi and try my best to defend her innocence. If it is impossible, I will reduce the charges against her and recommend a lighter sentence."

Lin Hezhen looked at her with emotion and thanked her, "Thank you for your help. Come on, I'll take you to see her."

Hayashi Kazuma and Sakurajima Mai entered the police station together.

He originally wanted to look for Yukino, but he didn't see her, so he had to settle for the next best thing and look for the police officer with a mustache whom he knew.

"Hello, the lawyer I found for Hui has arrived. Please let us meet Hui." He asked politely.

Chapter 346 Yang No's Tips

The mustache officer glanced at Lin Hezhen, then turned his gaze to Sakurajima Mai and asked, "Is this the lawyer you hired?"

"Yes, her name is Sakurajima Mai." Lin Hezhen introduced.

"Nice to meet you." Mai Sakurajima bowed slightly.

The mustache officer nodded, stood up and said, "Lawyer, follow me. You don't need to come in. Her current condition does not allow family visits for the time being."

Lin Hezhen was stunned for a moment, then said: "But...but...I want to know Hui's situation. I must see her in person to feel at ease."

"No, this is the rule! And didn't you just meet?" said the mustache policeman impatiently.

"but......"

Lin Hezhen wanted to say something, but Sakurajima Mai pulled him back and gave him a wink.

"Don't worry, she will be fine now. Just wait for me outside and let me talk to Kato Megumi alone."

"Okay then, Miss Mai, I'll leave everything to you. Please save Hui." Lin Kazuma pleaded.

"Don't worry, I will do my best to help you." Sakurajima Mai nodded with a smile, then followed the mustache man towards the interrogation room.

Lin Hezhen watched Sakurajima Mai enter the interrogation room, and looked at the closed door with a worried look in his eyes.

Can Mai Sakurajima really help Kato Megumi clear her suspicion?

Lin Hezhen was still worried, but he could only trust Sakurajima Mai now.

He took a deep breath, forced himself to calm down, then sat on the lounge chair next to him and waited.

......

After Sakurajima Mai entered the interrogation room, she sat across the table from Kato Megumi, and the mustache-wearing policeman closed the door of the interrogation room.

Kato Megumi sat on a chair with her head lowered. Her expression could not be seen. Only a strand of black hair fell from her shoulders to her chest.

After a moment of silence, Mai Sakurajima finally spoke: "Ms. Kato, we meet again."

“Yes, we did meet again. This is the first time since I married Kazuma.”

Kato Megumi raised her head slightly, her expression was very calm, and she didn't seem panicked about what she was about to face. Instead, she seemed a little indifferent.

"You are still as beautiful as before. No wonder Kazuma loves you so much. Even I can't help but be jealous." Sakurajima Mai joked with a smile.

"Thank you, it's Miss Mai. You are still as radiant as ever after all these years." Kato Megumi responded with the same smile.

"Hehe..." Sakurajima Mai smiled softly, "Let's stop complimenting each other and get straight to the point."

"Okay." Kato Megumi nodded, and then stopped smiling.

The same was true for Mai Sakurajima. A serious look appeared on her face and her tone became solemn.

"Ms. Kato, you should be able to guess why I came to see you today - Kazuma asked me to help you defend your innocence, but..."

Sakurajima Mai paused for a moment before slowly saying, "Kato, if I were you, I would admit to all the charges, what do you think?"

......

Just as Sakurajima Mai was negotiating with Kato Megumi, on the other side of the city, Yukinoshita Yukino appeared at the Yukinoshita old house in the suburbs.

"My sister's last message before she died asked me to go back to the old house and look through the beautiful memories we had together. What did that mean? Why didn't she just send me the name of the murderer? Was it a stranger she didn't know?"

Yukinoshita Yukino stood in her sister's bedroom, frowning and pondering.

Yukinoshita Haruno did not tell anyone about the clue she left before her death.

Because the serial killer's anti-reconnaissance ability was so strong, Yukinoshita Yukino really couldn't imagine that an ordinary person could do this. She would rather believe that this was the work of a well-trained professional.

This person should have a deep understanding of the police station and be well aware of their reconnaissance methods and weaknesses, or he may have an informant in the police station who is passing information to him.

In order to prevent the important information from leaking out, Yukinoshita Yukino decided to find the clues on her own, so she quietly returned to the old house without alerting others.

"No matter what, I have to follow my sister's instructions and find what she wants me to find." Yukinoshita Yukino took a deep breath and began to look around.

My sister's bedroom is a suite with a bathroom and a dressing room. The furnishings inside are elegant and simple. Apart from a bed, a dressing table, a chair, a sofa, and a set of cabinets, there are no other furniture. The only special thing is a piano placed in the corner.

That piano was given to Yukinoshita Haruno by her parents when she was a child.

The Yukinoshita family is considered a prominent family in the local area. When they were young, both Haruno and Yukino were required to learn various etiquette and talents such as playing the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. Haruno's main instrument was the piano.

Although Yukinoshita Haruno rarely plays the piano after she started working, this piano, which has special meaning to her, has always been treasured here.

"The good memories we used to share..." Yukino murmured to herself.

Suddenly, she seemed to think of something and looked up suddenly.

She cast her eyes on the piano and reached out to open the heavy top cover, revealing its internal structure. There was a small square box hidden inside.

"Sure enough, I found it." Yukino's eyes lit up.

When they were young, their mother was strict. She didn't allow the two sisters to eat snacks, read comic books or novels, so they would secretly hide things in the piano to avoid their mother's control.

For Haruno and Yukino, this is indeed a beautiful memory from the past that they shared together.

"So, what secrets are contained in this box?"

Yukino reached out and took out the box, opening it. An exquisite diamond ring immediately caught her eye. The sparkling diamond reflected a dazzling brilliance under the light.

"The shape of this diamond ring...I seem to have seen it somewhere before."

Yukinoshita Yukino's pupils suddenly contracted, and in an instant she realized why this diamond ring looked so familiar to her.

That was the wedding ring that Kato Megumi had been wearing on the ring finger of her left hand, given to her by Hayashi Kazuma.

"My sister has been hiding an identical ring all this time? Oh my god, this is crazy!"

Yukinoshita Yukino thought about what Hayashi Kazuma said about what happened between him and Haruno before, and then looked at the ring in front of her, and found it extremely absurd.

What made her feel even more absurd was that her hand seemed to be out of control. She picked up the ring and tremblingly put it on her left ring finger...

"No, no, no! Even if I wear the same ring, I'm not the one that Lin Hezhen proposed to! Ah, what am I doing?"

Yukino suddenly woke up and quickly took off the ring and put it back into the box.

She was about to turn around and leave, but suddenly realized something and stopped abruptly.

"Wait, the structure of this ring is a little different." She picked up the diamond ring again and looked at it carefully.

"If there is something strange going on, this ring might be useful in the future." Yukinoshita Yukino said to herself and put it carefully into her pocket.

Chapter 347 Mai's Advice

Outside the interrogation room, Lin Hezhen paced back and forth anxiously.

Mai Sakurajima has been in the interrogation room for some time, but has not come out yet, which makes Hayashi Kazuma even more worried, fearing that her conversation with Kato Megumi is not going well.

Lin Hezhen kept walking, turning his head to look at the door of the interrogation room from time to time, praying silently in his heart.

The hands of the watch ticked away, and soon it was half past twelve in the afternoon.

The door of the interrogation room that seemed like it would never open was finally pushed open.

There was a sound of footsteps and Mai Sakurajima, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, walked out with no expression on her face.

Lin Hezhen hurried forward and asked with concern: "Ms. Mai, how is Hui? Will she...will she be sentenced?"

Lin Hezhen's face was full of nervousness, and he stared at Sakurajima Mai without blinking.

Sakurajima Mai said calmly: "I talked to Miss Kato for a while. She was not hurt in there and her mental state was good, but..."

"Just?" Lin Hezhen's heart was hanging again.

"Just what?" he asked hastily.

Sakurajima Mai paused, looked around, and said, "Let's talk somewhere else. It's not convenient in the police station."

"Okay, you are still considerate." Lin Hezhen looked at the people coming and going around him and tried hard to suppress his anxiety.

He drove Sakurajima Mai to a nearby high-end restaurant, asked for a small private room, ordered a table of dishes, and the two of them chatted while eating.

"Ms. Mai, can you tell me about Hui's situation now?" Lin Hezhen asked impatiently.

"Yes." Mai Sakurajima nodded.

"The current situation is that the murder weapon has your and Kato Megumi's fingerprints on it, and the two of you don't have a solid alibi, so it can't be said that there is no motive for murder at all - at least that's what the police think."

"Due to extensive media coverage, the public is paying close attention to this serial murder case. The police are now under great pressure and are eager to close the case as soon as possible," said Mai Sakurajima.

"The consequence of these external conditions is that the police were originally inclined to convict you as the murderer because you were more suspicious than Kato Megumi. If she had not voluntarily surrendered herself, you would have been arrested."

After hearing this, Lin Hezhen clenched his fists and said, "Damn it! We don't even know who the murderer is, but they deliberately framed us. Hui and I are innocent! Ms. Mai, please make sure Hui is released without charge."

Sakurajima Mai shook her head and said, "Kazuma, you are too confused to understand the key to the problem. The police are under great pressure now. Since they can't find the real culprit, they urgently need a scapegoat. They don't care even if they catch the wrong person, as long as they can keep their jobs."
