I just wanted to become an immortal and was forced to open a harem

You must understand the cause of the matter.

No matter what, Kato Megumi cannot be allowed to suffer unjust injustice!

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

Although he is unwilling to admit it, Kato Megumi's mental state is very poor. If he does not seek help from a lawyer, it is difficult to ensure that the matter will not evolve into an irreparable situation.

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

"Moxi Moxi, 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 Megumi... ....She is not in a good situation now and needs your help urgently...I will double the payment to you, please..."

Lin Hezhen said a series of words, and after hanging up the phone, there was an expression of relief on his face.

Mai Sakurajima, a female star who was originally active on the screen as a well-known actress, chose to take a break from acting when her career was rapidly rising, which once shocked the people of the country.

Although the reason is unknown, due to her strong will, people had no choice but to accept the news with regret, watch this rising female star leave the entertainment industry, and gradually forget about her.

After fading out of the public eye, Sakurajima Mai became a professional elite.

She majored in law at university and became a lawyer after graduation. She successfully won many lawsuits. In just a few years, she established her own law firm and became a prominent figure in the legal world.

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

This time Kato Megumi was arrested, Hayashi Kazuma immediately thought of Sakurajima Mai, hoping that she could help.

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

......

Not long after waiting, a luxury commercial vehicle slowly parked at the door of the police station.

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

She is none other than Mai Sakurajima.

Looking at that alluring face, Lin Hezhen was in a trance, recalling every bit of their past.

Once upon a time, the other party had such a peerless style, and he once deeply loved such an elegant and beautiful girl.

However, at that time, they could not get together due to various reasons.

Thinking about it now, if he hadn't met Kato Megumi in the first place, maybe he and Sakurajima Mai wouldn't have missed each other.

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

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

"Miss Mai, long time no see." He greeted.

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

"No, I would be very grateful if you could come to save my wife." Lin Hezhen said humbly.

Hearing the word "wife", a dim look flashed in Sakurajima Mai's eyes, but then she returned to her normal look.

"I've heard a lot about this matter, and it made a big fuss in the media, but I believe that Kato Megumi didn't do it." Mai Sakurajima said calmly.

"I think so too, so I came here to ask you for help. Miss Mai, I hope you can help Hui defend his innocence." Lin Hezhen said sincerely.

Mai Sakurajima said softly: "Don't worry, since I agreed to you, I will naturally do my best to defend Kato Megumi and try my best to plead not guilty. If this is not possible, I will reduce the charges against her and recommend a lighter sentence."

Lin Hezhen looked at her movedly and thanked: "Thank you for your help. Come on, I will take you to see her."

Lin Hezhen and Sakurajima Mai entered the police station together.

He originally wanted to go find Yukino, but he didn't see anyone, so he had to do the next best thing and go find the mustached police officer he knew.

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

Chapter 346 Yangno’s Tips

The mustachioed police officer glanced at Lin Hezhen, then turned his attention 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 mustached police officer nodded, stood up and said, "Lawyer, follow me. Don't come in. Her current situation does not allow family visits for the time being."

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

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

"but......"

Lin Hezhen wanted to say something else, but Mai Sakurajima stopped him and winked at him.

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

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

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

Lin Hezhen watched Sakurajima Mai enter the interrogation room, looking at the closed door with a worried expression.

Can Mai Sakurajima really help Kato Megumi get rid of the suspicion?

Lin Hezhen is still worried, but now he can only trust Sakurajima Mai.

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

......

After Mai Sakurajima entered the interrogation room and sat across the table from Megumi Kato, the mustachioed police officer closed the door to the interrogation room.

Megumi Kato sat on a chair, with his head lowered, his expression unreadable, and only a strand of black hair hanging down from his shoulders to his chest.

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

"Yes, we did meet again. It was the first time since I married Kazuma."

Kato Megumi raised her head slightly, her expression was very calm, and she seemed not to be panicked by the encounter she was about to face, but rather with a bit of indifference.

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

"Thank you, Miss Mai, she is still shining brightly after many years." Kato Megumi responded with the same smile.

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

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

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

"Miss Kato, you should have guessed the reason why I came to see you today - Kazuma asked me to help you defend your innocence, but..."

Mai Sakurajima paused for a moment and then said slowly: "Kato, if I were you, I would admit all charges. What do you think?"

......

Just as Sakurajima Mai and Kato Megumi were discussing, on the other side of the city, Yukinoshita Yukino appeared at Yukinoshita's old house in the suburbs.

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

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

Yukinoshita Yono didn't tell anyone about this clue left by Yukinoshita Yono before she died.

Because the serial killer's anti-reconnaissance ability was so strong, Yukinoshita Yukino could not imagine that ordinary people could do this. She preferred to believe that this was the work of a well-trained professional.

This person should have a deep understanding of the police department and be very aware of their investigation methods and weaknesses, or there may simply be an informant in the police department passing him information.

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

"No matter what, I will follow my sister's prompts and find what she wants me to find." Yukinoshita Yukino took a deep breath and began to look at the surrounding environment.

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

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

The Yukinoshita family is considered a prominent local family. Both Haruno and Yukino were required to learn various etiquette, chess, calligraphy, painting and other talents when they were young. The musical instrument Harano mainly learned was the piano.

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

"The beautiful memories we shared in the past..." Yukino murmured to herself.

Suddenly, she seemed to think of something and raised her head suddenly.

She turned her attention to the piano and reached out to open the heavy top cover to reveal its internal structure. There was a small square box hidden inside.

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

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

For Harano and Yukino, this is indeed a beautiful memory shared in the past.

"So, what's the secret in this box?"

Yukino took out the box and opened it. A delicate diamond ring suddenly came into view. The dazzling diamond reflected the dazzling brilliance under the light.

"The shape of this diamond ring...why do I seem to have seen it somewhere?"

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

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

"My sister has been hiding the same ring? Oh my god, that's crazy!"

Yukinoshita Yukino thought of what Lin Hezhen said about what happened between him and Yangno before, and when he looked at the ring in front of him, he felt extremely ridiculous.

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

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

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

She was about to turn around and leave when she suddenly realized something and stopped abruptly.

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

"Sure enough, there is something fishy. This ring may be of some use in the future." Yukinoshita Yukino muttered to herself and carefully put it into her pocket.

Chapter 347 Mai’s suggestion

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 Megumi Kato will not go smoothly.

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 and it soon reached 12:30 noon.

The interrogation room door, which seemed to never open, was finally pushed open.

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

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

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

Mai Sakurajima said calmly: "I chatted with Ms. Kato for a while. She was not hurt inside and her mental state is good, but..."

"Just?" Lin Hezhen's heart was filled with doubts again.

"Just what?" he asked hurriedly.

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

"Okay, you're more thoughtful." Lin Hezhen looked at the surrounding environment with people coming and going, and barely suppressed his anxiety.

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

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

"Yes." Mai Sakurajima nodded.

"The current situation is that the murder weapon found has your and Kato Megumi's fingerprints, and the two of you have no conclusive alibi, and the motive for the murder cannot be said to be completely absent - at least in the eyes of the police."

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

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

After hearing this, Lin Hezhen couldn't help clenching his fists: "Damn it, I don't know who the murderer is, and he deliberately framed us. Hui and I are both innocent! Miss Mai, please let Hui be acquitted."

Mai Sakurajima shook her head: "Kazuma, you are a fan of the authorities now, and you haven't seen the key to the problem clearly. The police are under great pressure now. When they can't find the real culprit, they urgently need a scapegoat, even if they make a mistake. I don’t care, as long as they can keep their black hats.”
