All the teachers and students were standing in the field, they would gather only if there was any activity
to be held.
This was the first time to gather all the teachers and students, just because of a student doing a
‘mistake’.
Although Jasmine had a strong heart, she still couldn’t calm down seeing that there were so many
students giving cold-eyed stares at her. She couldn’t help clenching her fists, the paper in her hand
became wrinkled followed by her action.
The teacher turned and looked at her, sighing, “You must have offended someone, if not this issue
wouldn’t be raised again since a long time had passed already.”
Jasmine couldn’t think of anyone that she had offended, who wanted to frame her, she couldn’t think of
anyone but Elisa who had put obstacles for her in the public.
Thinking carefully now, it seemed like Elisa didn’t have the power to do so. Only the principal could
make this decision, she still didn’t have the ability.
‘Then who else wanted to frame me?’
She couldn’t think of anyone.
“I can’t help you too.” The teacher had no choice, “Please go in front.”
Jasmine knew that since there was someone who wanted to frame her, the teacher would have no
choice too.
She couldn’t help trembling, she was aggrieved, but she understood that her studies might be hindered
if she didn’t do so. She couldn’t stop her studies, this was the only platform for her to stand out, she
must graduate normally.
Even though she had so much aggrievement in her, she should keep it.
She walked to the front, there were already some murmurs coming from the students. Last time
everyone in the school had known her, although it had passed but they already had impressions on her,
and this time she had become totally famous in the school.
Definitely it wasn’t the good reputation, it was the bad reputation which showed negative example.
There was a teacher saying, “You may start.”
The students became quiet automatically, waiting for her self-criticism.
Jasmine looked at their sneering or curious eyes, she felt so down. She hadn’t done anything which
breached the morality, but she was going to apologize for something fictitious in front of all the teachers
and students.
She was extremely depressed.
She repeated breathing, she could only lift the report that she had written after repeating for many
times. There were cold sweats all over her palm, her face was pale, she said the word with slightly
quivering voice in front of the microphone, “Self-critique.”
“…Dear teachers… Students, I have written a self-critique with regret today, to admit that I’ve realized
my fault on my misconduct at the school gate last time, and to express my determination that I will
never commit this again…”
The quiver in her voice became more and more obvious, her voice had almost become hoarse when
reading to the end.
“So, I think that I must, and I should write this self-critique for the teachers, to let me reflect deeply on
my fault…”
“What’s going on?” The police who came together with Boyce Shawn were a bit confused.
‘Can a university insult someone in this way?’
She was saying in front of all the teachers and students.
One of the colleagues continued, “This student is so brave.”
There were some fluctuations in Boyce’s eyes, he lowered his voice and told the person beside him,
“Bring them there.”
He would come today because of the matter related to Jasmine’s mother, but actually he didn’t have to
come, there would be people coming to inform the family members. He would come because he knew
that it was the matter related to Jasmine’s mother, and since they knew each other, but he didn’t think
of this…
He looked up at the skinny girl standing at the front, she was wearing a simple ponytail and lowering
her eyes. Although her face expression couldn’t be seen clearly, but it could be seen from her standing
pose that she was a strong girl, she was still standing straight even under this situation.
The police officers beside him went in front to talk with the teachers, normally they only needed to call
and notify the family members if the prisoner was having any trouble inside.
However for this time, the prisoner had passed away inside the prison, so they should give the family
members an account.
The medical examiner had examined the cause of death, it was caused by the sudden death due to
disease.
They should communicate with the family members even if they didn’t have to bear the responsibilities.
The sudden arrival of police in their uniforms had let everyone become more curious in their eyes. The
police looked serious, they walked straight and proudly toward the teachers’ seats, “We’re from the
Public Security Bureau, may I know is there a first-year student named Jasmine over here?”
Jasmine’s teacher stood up, feeling worried when looking at them, “You…”
There was a student pointing at Jasmine and said, “It’s her.”
The police officers turned and looked at the girl who was reading the self-critique in front of all the
teachers and students just now, one of them asked, “Are you Jasmine?”
Jasmine looked at them too, she then answered, “Yes, I’m Jasmine.”
The teacher immediately went there and stood in front of Jasmine, asking, “Did she commit any
mistakes? Is it that you’ve gotten it wrong? She is actually a good student…”
“No, she didn’t do anything wrong, we’re looking for her because of something.”
The teacher breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that luckily nothing had happened, if not Jasmine would
definitely be destroyed.
After all, if a case had caused the Public Security Bureau to interrupt, a conviction would be recorded.
“Please come with us.” Their tone was serious.
Although Jasmine didn’t know what had happened while walking there, she felt quite worried also, but
she didn’t retreat, “I’ll go with you.”
She turned and looked at her teacher’s worried eyes, then she smiled, “Don’t worry, I’ll be fine.”
She didn’t do any illegal things, some more they had said that it was just because they had something
to do, perhaps they wanted to know something from her.
The teacher was not as optimistic as her, since there was already someone giving her a hard time for
this issue that had happened at school, and now there were police coming, how could he not worry
about her?
“Let’s go.”
A few police officers brought Jasmine away in public, they didn’t explain the reason of bringing her
away directly to everyone, to avoid them from spreading the rumors about Jasmine.
“The reason of bringing this student away is not because that she did something wrong, it’s just that we
have a case related to her and we need to get some information from her.”
They brought Jasmine away after saying these.
Jasmine felt worried all the way, she didn’t face any special things during this period of time, so she
had asked immediately after coming out from the school, “What can I do for you?”
One of them said, “We’ll talk about it later when we arrive at the police station.”
Jasmine could only suppress her anxiety and follow them into the car. When the car’s door was
opened, she saw that Boyce was here too.
“Why are you…”
“Get in.” Boyce moved beside to give her a seat.
Jasmine got into the car and closed the door, she then asked, “Do you know why are they looking for
me?”
Boyce didn’t answer her question, but talking about another thing, “Isn’t it that the matter last time had
come to an end? Why did you still need to do the self-criticism in front of all the teachers and students
today?”
Jasmine lowered her eyes and said calmly, “It’s okay.”
She didn’t wish to bring trouble to Boyce.
Boyce frowned, it was obvious that she was not telling the truth, he looked at her and asked, “Is it that
you don’t trust me?”
Jasmine shook her head immediately, “No, how will I not trust you… Last time I had brought troubles to
you and I felt so sorry for you, I just don’t want to trouble you anymore.”
Boyce didn’t answer her question, but talking about another thing, “Isn't it that the matter last time had
come to an end? Why did you still need to do the self-criticism in front of all the teachers and students
today?”
Jasmine lowered her eyes and said calmly, “It’s okay.”
She didn’t wish to bring trouble to Boyce.
Boyce frowned, it was obvious that she was not telling the truth, he looked at her and asked, “Is it that
you don't trust me?”
Jasmine shook her head immediately, “No, how will | not trust you... Last time | had brought troubles to
you and | felt so sorry for you, | just don’t want to trouble you anymore.”
