Chapter 234: Natural Investigator

“Experimental High School is the school my client goes to. Nothing is stopping my client from going to school on the weekend. There is no logical reason to assume that he was up to anything bad,” the lawyer said slowly, his tone filled with combativeness.
He pushed the lawyer’s letter to Xi Yan. Xi Yan was actually rather afraid. She lived her life orderly and properly. She got into university and left to work. She never got into any trouble and had never encountered something like this. Lawyer’s letters like these were a very distant thing for her.
She took the letter expressionlessly. Gu Mang’s wrongdoings were listed on it. She had violated the provisions of the “Country Z Criminal Law” and it constituted a crime of intentional injury. Gu Mang shall be held accountable for criminal offenses and civil compensation in accordance with the law.
The client, Yi Chen, suffered from an eardrum hemorrhage and a slight concussion. The client claimed that his rib had been fractured which caused him severe pulmonary hemorrhages…
There was even an injury identification report. The evidence was very complete.
Xi Yan’s finger shook a little. She knew a little bit about the law. Cases like this usually ended with a mandatory minimum of less than three years in jail with the case being added to the public record.
That couldn’t happen.
Her spine was a little stiff and she couldn’t help but bite her lips tightly. She forced herself to calm down and she looked at the pieces of the injury identification report to look for anything suspicious.
Upon seeing the photo of Yi Chen’s scar, she frowned slightly and picked it up. “This injury was obviously caused by a heavy blow from a rod. Gu Mang wouldn’t have brought this item with her if she were going to film at Experimental High School. Was there a rod on the scene?”
There was a horizontal bruise on Yi Chen’s neck. Perhaps, it was caused by a rod. There was no way that Gu Mang had brought the weapon. As long as they had this proof, it could be shown that Gu Mang was acting out of self defense and that she had not committed a crime.
Liang Qingru made eye contact with the Branch Commander and they started at each other a little intently.
The Branch Commander said calmly, “We did not notice any weapons at the scene.”
Gu Mang did not even look up. She stared at her toes, feeling bored.
“No weapon…” Xi Yan bit her lip and looked up. “What about the surveillance cameras? We should be able to see what’s up in the surveillance cameras for sure.”
The school basically had full surveillance coverage with no dead spots. The fight had to have been recorded.
The Level Head of Year Three in Experimental High School added, “The surveillance cameras along the way were faulty.”
Hearing this, Xi Yan glared at him and instantly understood that it was not going to be easy to solve the issue. They were clearly against Gu Mang and they would not give up easily. All the evidence that she could think of was ruined. The group of badly injured boys who were lying in the hospital became the only source of evidence.
Wu Luo and the person at the information room of the police station stood at the end of the wall and watched them.
“This teacher is very good at defending her student. She is so afraid and yet she is still keeping her cool to find evidence for Gu Mang,” the person said.
Wu Luo’s gaze landed on Xi Yan’s angry face. He was lost for a couple of seconds then he squinted. “She is rather impressive. Women are really natural investigators.”
“It’s such a pity that they do not have any evidence. She’s definitely getting jailed.” The person shook his head sympathetically. Sometimes we still have to give in to the harsh reality. “I don’t want to watch anymore. It makes me feel bad. You should also hurry back to your criminal police team. There are so many cases to handle and yet you still have time to be a rubberneck here?”
Wu Luo glanced at him and said, “No hurry, let’s watch for a while more.”
The person rolled his eyes speechlessly.
