When news of Guan Queye's death got out, everything seemed to go into a deadlock.
After a few days of being sedimentary, Guan Yanhong finally brought the matter up again and had Ye Youyou charged in court.
The onsite evidence and human witness corroborated the charge. The most important piece of evidence bore Ye Youyou's fingerprints.
Lawyer Ye pointed out, yet again, that the poison in the tumbler was a very rare chemical toxin. As a contraband chemical, it was hard to obtain, especially for someone who wasn't in the research industry.
He also listed a few other questionable points.
One, Ye Youyou did not have the time to purchase such a product. Furthermore, she wouldn't be able to even if she did.
Two, Ye Youyou was living in Kingstown with Li Jinnan. She was enjoying a very comfortable life. Why would choose to murder a stepsister with whom she had a previous grudge with? She lacked motive.
