Chapter 237: Evidence Found
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Wu Luo took the USB drive, went around to the police station front desk, and plugged in the USB drive into the computer. He opened up the file, enlarged the video, and turned the screen to show everyone. The image was extremely clear.
Yi Chen and some others were standing at a corner of the school building with steel rods and daggers in their hands as they talked. The video had no sound, but their ill intentions were obvious from the look of their faces. Shortly after, Gu Mang appeared, walking languidly.
The group of boys walked towards her with their weapons. Yi Chen was the first to attack Gu Mang. The parents of the Experimental High School students were very quiet. Liang Qingru was very anxious as she looked to the lawyer.
But the lawyer returned her a comforting look.
Liang Qingru didn’t understand the law as well as the lawyer but she was able to calm down.
Upon seeing the evidence, Xi Yan felt more at ease and her eyes radiated joy, “With this evidence we can clear Gu Mang’s name. It’ll be alright.”
She looked at Gu Mang, finally feeling relieved.
Wu Luo turned over and was quiet for a moment before saying softly, “What this evidence proves is that Gu Mang wasn’t the one who started it. But this has gone beyond self-defense. She’ll still have to face criminal charges.”
And the attackers were Year Three students. It wouldn’t just cost them their time, but also their futures. The judge would definitely not be lenient in court.
“What?!” Xi Yan’s face was pale. “What should we do then?”
Realizing what the lawyer meant, Liang Qingru looked to Wu Luo. “I’m glad that you’re reasonable, officer. Please help us to make a case. I must sue this girl! If we don’t put her in jail, how will she learn?”
She shot a glare at Gu Mang.
Seeing the tide turning in their favor, the parents of the Experimental High School students stared proudly at Gu Mang and Xi Yan.
If they had known that even with the evidence Gu Mang wouldn’t be able to do anything to them, it would have saved them alot of trouble. Upon seeing this, Lu Shangjin frowned.
This matter...
Department Chief Yan was hard-pressed. Ms. Gu was indeed quite heavy handed. If she had been gentler, this wouldn’t have been a problem. Ms. Gu had helped them so much previously, but they couldn’t protect her this time.
The form teacher from Experimental High School narrowed her eyes as she looked to Xi Yan. “I’m not sure what Ming City High School had planned, but to put the five top students from our school into the hospital just before the exam seems very telling.”
She was friends with Luo Songhua. She had heard that Xi Yan had picked up two good students, Qin Yaozhi and Meng Jinyang, and that Class Twenty’s grades had improved significantly. Now whenever they talked to Xi Yan, she was much more assertive and not as cautious as before.
Xi Yan frowned. Because she was still on edge because of Gu Mang, she spoke impulsively, “You teach Chinese, so you should know the saying, ‘What you see of the world reflects the kind of person you are.’ Ms. Wang must be of poor character to use that to slander our school.”
“You!” Ms. Wang’s face was ashen as she glared at Xi Yan. “Even if Ming City High School is the top school this time, it’s only because our school didn’t participate!”
Xi Yan sneered as she lost interest in talking to her any further. Liang Qingru clenched her fingers angrily when she thought about her son missing the exam.
No one was arguing anymore. Wu Luo turned to Liang Qingru and asked again, “Are you sure you want to sue? For assault?”
“Yes!” Liang Qingru said. “Thank you, police officer.”
