Chapter 45 Exposing Evil, Abusing Scum
<Previous Chapter<Table of Contents>Next Chapter>
Li Xue ran away as soon as she could.
She was so young and definitely couldn’t afford to go to jail!
Unfortunately, with two police officers present, where could she run?
Within fifty meters, she was caught, her arm twisted, handcuffed, and hooded, and escorted onto a police car in front of all the school faculty and students.
No.1 High School does not prohibit students from using mobile phones, and many have already seen the news and trending topics.
Although all the class teachers tried their best to appease and repeatedly emphasized that they should not discuss this matter, mouths cannot be controlled, especially when they belong to others.
“Did Li Xue really do those things?”
“It’s all over the internet, what else can be questioned?”
“No… I just find it a bit hard to accept. I never thought there would be such a… pervert around me.”
“Her heart is too black. They were all classmates, how could she do such a thing?”
“Talking about camaraderie with criminals? Ha… don’t be ridiculous.”
“I really didn’t expect Li Xue to be that kind of person.”
“Oh, then maybe you’re blind. Did you not notice that she bullied Zhang Yunyu so openly before, tore up Jiang Fuyue’s homework, and called Wan Xiutong a nerd? Or are you afraid of getting into trouble, so you chose to turn a blind eye?”
“Jiang Yufei, why is your mouth so foul?”
“It’s better than pretending to be dumb and ignorant, deceiving oneself and others!”
“Alright you two, are you done yet? Did Li Xue’s parents get arrested?”
“I saw the official media report it like that…”
Amidst the discussion, Jiang Fuyue stood up and left the classroom.
Ten minutes later, she appeared in front of the administrative building and stopped at the door of the principal’s office.
Knock knock knock–
“Please come in! Yes, yes, rest assured, the school will handle it properly, and we will educate the students’ thinking, and we will never allow such a heinous thing to happen in our school…”
Jiang Fuyue waited for half a minute before Hu Yongwei finished his phone call.
“Student Jiang, do you… have something to tell me?”
Few students would directly come to his office, and Hu Yongwei couldn’t help showing a bit of surprise.
“I want to report something about Li Xue.”
Principal Hu seemed to realize something, his expression suddenly changed, and he took out a recorder from the drawer and put it on the desk in front of Jiang Fuyue, pressing the record button: “I will record what you say next. Okay, you can start now.”
“In the first monthly exam of the first semester of our freshman year, Li Xue was the last in the whole grade. In order to get rid of this ranking, she threatened me to intentionally perform worse than her in the second monthly exam, otherwise, she would tell the whole class about my family’s street stall business and give me an unforgettable lesson.”
“To prove that she was serious, she showed me a video.”
Hu Yongwei’s eyelids jumped as he looked at the recorder next to him. “What video?”
“The one that was uploaded to the internet today. She said that if I didn’t obey her, the same thing would happen to me. I was scared, so I handed in a blank answer sheet for every subject. Since then, I have always been the last in the grade.”
Hu Yongwei listened with his veins popping out. He never expected such a heartbreaking thing to happen on the campus he managed.
“Student Jiang,” he seemed to have made a certain decision, picked up the recorder, and said word by word, “Can you ensure that every word you just said is absolutely true?”
Jiang Fuyue: “Yes.”
“Okay.” He pressed the stop button, locked the recorder carefully in the drawer, and said solemnly, “I will notify the police station and let them take away this recording. But whether it will work, I cannot guarantee.”
“Thank you.”
“Also, if necessary, I may ask you to testify later.”
“I’m willing to cooperate.”
Hu Yongwei explained everything that needed to be explained clearly, then stood up, walked around from behind his desk, and stood in front of Jiang Fuyue. Then he bowed deeply to her.
“I’m sorry that my negligence caused innocent students to be harmed, and I failed to pull students who went astray back to the right path in time.”
Jiang Fuyue looked at the old man’s white hair and hunched back, took a step back to avoid the bow, and said, “Teachers should teach without distinction, but not all students can succeed, and some can’t even become decent human beings.”
Is the teacher at fault?
Perhaps he was negligent, but he is not entirely to blame.
There are people who choose to do good and there are people who choose to do evil. In the final analysis, it is their own choice.
Hu Yongwei looked at the girl’s departing figure, stunned in place, unable to return to his senses for a long time.
Jiang Fuyue walked out of the principal’s office, looked at the setting sun in the sky, and slowly exhaled a breath.
Li Xue was the original owner’s nightmare, and it was ended by her own hands today–
Expose all the evil, pour out all the grievances, in a reasonable and legal way within the capacity of a high school student.
As for those means that cannot be made public, leave it to the “enthusiastic citizens.”
Jiang Fuyue walked through the corridor, striding towards the place where the sun shone, with brightness following closely behind her.
…
Li Xue’s guilt was conclusive. She instigated intentional harm to others with serious circumstances. According to Article 26 of the Criminal Law, her behavior fully meets the characteristics of a principal offender and should be recognized as such. She is sentenced to eight years in prison.
Although Li Xue is still a minor, China revised the Criminal Law Article 17, paragraphs 2 and 3 in the form of an amendment ten years ago, lowering the age of criminal responsibility for minors.
Li Yongsheng committed intentional homicide and money laundering with serious circumstances. The multiple offenses were combined, and the illegal gains and their proceeds were confiscated, and a fine of 15% of the amount of money laundered was imposed. He was sentenced to death with a two-year reprieve.
Wei Shaohong committed intentional homicide, conspiring with her husband to murder a foreign customer at their KTV. She is sentenced to life imprisonment and deprived of political rights for life.
The verdicts were gradually announced and received a lot of attention from netizens, making it to the trending list each time.
“The heavens have a way of evening things out. Rest in peace, little sister!”
“This family has finally paid the price, but the girl who loved to smile will never come back.”
“Sister, may you have peace and joy in your next life.”
“…”
In addition to official announcements, the Linhuai Daily also published the verdicts.
In an old residential building, a middle-aged man with gray hair put down the newspaper, walked to the memorial tablet, calmly lit a stick of incense, and tears silently rolled down his face. “Yating, your killer has been punished, you can rest now. If possible, come visit Dad in his dreams? Your mom and I miss you so much…”
At this moment, the door opened, and Aunt Zhan came in with a basket of groceries.
“Old Zhan, I’m back! Why are there so many flowers and candles outside? It scared me.”
The man wiped away his tears and went to take the basket from the woman. “It’s probably from our neighbors. You know they run a flower shop and have to restock every day.”
“Oh, I see. I saw some forget-me-nots in there. They were Tingting’s favorite. Let’s buy a bouquet and put it on the windowsill in our bedroom.”
“Sure, whatever you say.” The man’s throat tightened.
“Oh, let me go get some money. Can you tell the neighbor first?”
“Wait, take your medicine first.”
“Medicine?”
“Don’t you remember?”
“I remember! I have a bit of a cold, so I’ll take my medicine first to avoid infecting Tingting.”
As the woman tilted her head back to drink water, the man quickly wiped away his tears behind her back.
It’s good to forget, or maybe it’s better to forget.
Living in a world without his daughter was already enough for him.
For the rest of his life, he would live on for his daughter.
“Old Zhan, the results of the monthly exam came out today. You can’t scold Tingting. If you have anything to say, say it nicely, okay?”
“Mmm…”
