As the victi woke up at the hospital, obviously there would be police debriefing her, but due to the immense backstory, the police officer obviously could not tell her entire story Just like at the Grand Piano Competition, Li Dan’s name had not been mentioned to her

But when Zhao Yuwas not surprised or even hesitant, as if she recognized that name Not only did she know Li Dan, but she even knew ahead of time that the person who attacked her was Li Dan! Additionally, Zhao Yu had not evenknew exactly what had happened to Li Dan,her even more suspicious As it turned out, Zhao Yu had already set up the trap, waiting for Shan Jiaying to walk into it

Shan Jiaying also realized she hadat her arm

"Miss Shan" Zhao Yu did not break his calm demeanor, "Last year on April 22nd, Gao Tian was the first victie Then five days later on the 26th, Yuan Lili suffered the same fate in her own house This year on April 22nd, Luo Meina also suffered the same fate Then on the 26th, yesterday, you almost followed in their footsteps!

"April 22nd to April 26th Do you have any idea why these dates are significant?" Zhao Yu stared at Shan Jiaying and continued, "These five dates are the same as the start and end of that year’s piano competition Li Dan picked those dates to conificance to it!"

"Zhao…Officer Zhao!" Shan Jiaying’s words no longer had the power they had before Her lips quivered as she spoke, "I…we all attended that Piano Co looked as if she was trying to argue, but was once again cut off by Zhao Yu "I’ve already looked up your guys’ information Out of the top six contestants, only your family was poor!" Zhao Yu spoke coldly, "The others weren’t from rural areas, their families were all in decent financial condition, the parents were usually either white collar workers or businessmen In other words, the others had no reason to attack soh the piano competition could jump start their life, they were already finalists, they were already satisfied! But for you, whose family was poor, it was completely different!" Zhao Yu showed no mercy as he spoke, "I’ve looked up your records You had competed in the Ninth Annual Piano Competition, but you were not one of the finalists! The tenth piano competition was your last chance! In order for you to be able to enter the competition, your father even faked your school and social identification!

"Originally, you ed to enter the finals, but your score was very precarious!" Zhao Yu continued loudly, "With one misstep, you would have been pushed out of the top six Once you were out of top six, all of your hard ould disappear! The competition had an unspoken rule that only the top six would be accepted by famous schools! Thus, out of the four people, only you were in a dangerous situation! As it turned out, your bet succeeded Li Dan’s withdrawal froed to get third place which coed your life!" Zhao Yu continued, "But what about Li Dan? Her entire life was ruined by a s’s faced turned bright red at Zhao Yu’s words She tre needs evidence! You’re a police officer, how could you throw around accusations like this?!"

Zhao Yu sighed He bent his body a little, then spoke calain, "Miss Shan, I think you et justice for Li Dan! Things happen, however unfortunate they hteen years Not to mention there’s a lack of evidence Why would I work so hard? Actually, I ca on herwas a little surprised

Zhao Yu paused for a few anize his words, then continued, "I’ve already talked with the prosecutor Li Dan will be accused of planned assault Due to the extreme situation, do you knohat her sentence will be?"

Shan Jiaying paused She had never thought about that

"She would be lucky to get life in prison!" Zhao Yu shook his head "If she’s not lucky, she’ll get the death sentence!"

"Oh…" Even though it was a si, her expression revealed her surprise She never thought Li Dan would receive such a heavy sentence

"Li Dan’s whole life is over!" Zhao Yu could not help but sigh "I think you would know better than I would But if it hadn’t been for that small piece of razor, ould Li Dan’s life be like? Pianist? Grand Musician? Piano Teacher? Or, maybe like you, a successful businesswoman? But in reality, her father died from depression, and her mother has cancer It’s a coht not even be anyone to maintain her to interrupted Zhao Yu agitatedly Her face was bright red and she was tre while, she finally lowered her head in shahteen years! I…" A shiny tear silently slipped fro back her tears, "Every tiht of Li Dan, I couldn’t sleep, and my blood ran cold! If you say what happened caused Li Dan a life of pain, then I’’s tears continued to fall until she eeping

Zhao Yu did not have a handkerchief, and could only slip two pieces of paper napkin to her

But Shan Jiaying had already fallen into a series of painful meh her crying, "Officer Zhao, you’re right! Putting the razor trap for Li Dan was related to o, I was only a child Other than practicing piano as hard as I could, how could I have had such dark thoughts?! Not toup the razor would have been impossible for ht that Shan Jiaying attacking Li Dan was for sure, but hearing what she said, it did not seem so anymore Could it be…there was some other backstory?
