Chapter 280: I Owe you a Formal Confession



Chen Shi asked, “I still have a question . What was the murder weapon?”

“You just said it was a hammer . Actually, it wasn't . It was ice cubes wrapped in cloth to keep the sashimi fresh . After killing that obsessive man, I put the ice cubes in the toilet tank . It probably melted long ago . I burned the cloth as well . ”

“Smart! But you replaced Miss Jiang's key with your own . Weren't you afraid of being discovered?”

“I thought at the time that if you suspected me, it didn't matter if the key was mine or not anyway . . . But the day you came to the Japanese restaurant, I was still scared so I replaced the lock . ”

“Did you wipe the dust on the windows?”

“Yes, I wanted you to think that the murderer entered and left the room from there . ”

Chen Shi glanced at the report and said, “Why didn't you kill your boyfriend back then? Or, did you already do it?”

Gu Xiaoting shook her head . “That man was sentenced for intentional injury and is still in jail . I really wanted to wait until the day he was released from prison to finish him with my own hands! In recent years, I have worked hard to exercise and strengthen my body . The violence is based on the oppression of strength based on men versus women . Men have the strength to hurt women, so I think that if I become stronger than all men, no one can hurt me . ”

“But violence cannot solve the problem, Little Gu!” Chen Shi sighed . “You are right . The foundation of this patriarchal society is that men are stronger and don’t have to bear the hardships of childbearing . Gender equality is the ultimate goal of civilization . Although it has not been realized, it’s at least much better than it used to be . The world of equality between men and women is neither from men being as weak as women nor women being as strong as men . It is from men learning to respect women and all opportunities being equal to both men and women . That isn’t achieved through violence, but by progress in our systems and society and through everyone's change . ”



Gu Xiaoting smiled . “On that day, what I did is still meaningful to our current society! I hope that my situation will be published in the newspaper . At least to let those stubborn men know that bullying girls can potentially lead to death!”

Chen Shi and Lin Dongxue exchanged glances . Lin Dongxue said, “I will find a way to contact a reliable newspaper outlet . ”

“Thank you!”

Later, after finding out about this, Miss Jiang asked to see Gu Xiaoting and was willing to bear the cost of hiring a lawyer for her . The case began three months later . On the day of the trial, there were many people outside the court . Most of them were women who supported Gu Xiaoting .

Gu Xiaoting had a special identity . She was both a former victim and the perpetrator this time, which attracted attention from people of all walks of life . Netizens had been arguing about her sentencing in heated debates .

In the end, she was sentenced to 15 years in prison .

At the end of the trial, Gu Xiaoting was temporarily detained before she began her sentence . There was still some follow-up work to be done, but today's work was finally over .

When outside, Lin Dongxue sighed . “Poor girl . ”

“No, if we’re being impartial, she's not pitiful at all!” Chen Shi disputed “The killing method was meticulous and the she had a calm mentality when committing murder . She is no worse than those dangerous criminals . I’m glad I caught her in time . ”



“You just talked about gender equality . Were you just trying to raise the atmosphere in the interrogation room?”

“Of course not . I respect women . Gu Xiaoting is a dangerous criminal but she had no evil heart . It can be seen from her rescuing me . ”

“Yeah, poor girl . If she hadn’t met you . . . ”


“Ahem, can a police officer say that kind of stuff?”

“I really think that those extreme men don’t deserve to find girlfriends . Hey, you aren’t like that, are you? Are you going to check my phone, restrict me from making friends with others, and ask me about who my ex-boyfriends are?”

Lin Dongxue looked up at Chen Shi with a smile .

Chen Shi said, “You are you . I am myself . We don’t belong to anyone but ourselves . Our relationship is just that I like you . ”

“What if I gave you a green hat?”

“Then, I might have to plan a perfect murder . ”

“Haha, you’re exposed!”

“I have a lot of things you don't know about!”

“For example?”

“If you treat me to supper, I’ll tell you . ”

“Why do I have to treat you?!”

“I'm a taxi driver . You aren’t embarrassed making me treat you?”

“I’m not embarrassed . Who told you to be my BOY! FRIEND?!”

“Sorry, sorry…”

Lin Dongxue’s heart felt an impact and the smile on her face gradually faded away . Was the kiss before just to comfort her?

Chen Shi smiled and continued, “I owe you a formal confession . ”

Lin Dongxue was full of excitement but desperately restrained the urge to laugh . She deliberately said seriously, “Then, plan well and find a chance to make up for it!”

Chen Shi squeezed her ear lightly and said, “I’ll invite you to supper . Who asked you to be so cute!”

“Hmph, at least you know what to do!”

Lin Dongxue took his arm and leaned her body on Chen Shi . The sturdy body and the temperature emanating from his body made her heart feel sweet for a while . She thought, this fool is finally willing to take this step . You have no idea how hard it was for me to wait for you .

The case was finally over . Today, we can finally spend a relaxing night together . Of course, it will be a romantic night .

The two found a seafood stall . After ordering a bunch of food, Chen Shi's cell phone rang . After looking at it, he immediately said, “We need to head back . Old Peng has some important findings . ”

“Tomorrow! I'm hungry right now . ” Lin Dongxue acted spoiled . The scent of the anaspidea in the wok made her so hungry that she couldn’t contain herself .

The message on the phone read, “I can identify Zhou Xiao . ”

Looking at Lin Dongxue and her look of expectation, Chen Shi sat back down and replied, “I will come early tomorrow morning . ”
