Chapter 489, My name is Jiang Rong, the glorious Rong
"I killed your son."
Mrs. Bai suddenly looked up at the girl, staring into her eyes, trying to find any signs of lying on her face.
"Now, do you want to see anyone else?"
In the end, Mrs. Bai found nothing.
"It's you?" Mrs. Bai looked at her in surprise.
"My surname is Jiang, and my given name is Jiang Rong, which means glorious.
It was the third day after my exams. I was very nervous and didn’t know if I could succeed. I am a timid person to begin with.
My father died in the line of duty and my mother was busy making a living. I have lived with my grandmother since I was a child and rarely interacted with people my age. I didn’t know how to relieve stress and couldn’t sleep well all night.
Seeing that I was feeling uneasy, my grandmother told me that there was a Moon Shrine on Mount Kamiyakuku.
The Moon Goddess is enshrined in the Moon God Palace.
The Moon Goddess loves girls the most, so she told me that if I was really scared, I should go and pray to the Moon Goddess. When I went, the Taoist priest in the Moon Goddess Palace knew my situation and gave me an apple.
They say it was offered to the goddess, and eating it will keep me safe.
After eating it, I felt much more at ease.
Later the results came out, and I got first place in the written test. I was so happy.
My grandma urged me to go to the Moon Goddess Palace to restore myself. She said she would make chicken soup for me at noon and buy me some glutinous rice cakes.
I was really happy that day. I wore my favorite skirt and walked on the mountain road. The road was difficult to walk on, but I felt full of energy.
But at that moment, before I reached the steps of the Moon Palace..."
"Stop talking!" Mrs. Bai interrupted her. She didn't want to listen.
"I've been kidnapped." Jiang Rong didn't do as Mrs. Bai wished. She stood up and unbuttoned her coat one by one. "Five hours of torture. Do you want to see your son's masterpiece?"
Her top was taken off, revealing the mottled scars on her arms. The twisted scars recorded the traces of inhumane abuse.
Mrs. Bai's eyes swept over the scars and she turned her head away stiffly.
"He pulled my hair and walked away for a long, long time. Thanks to your son, I never had long hair again." Jiang Rong lowered his body and looked directly at Mrs. Bai, not allowing her to escape: "When Miss Kong came, I felt like there was light shining in.
I recognized her at first glance; she was the little Taoist priest who gave me the apple.
She knocked everyone down, and she covered me with her Taoist robe. She said she would call an ambulance for me and call the police for me. She said these beasts would pay the price, she said I was innocent, and she said everything would be fine.
When she turned around to make a phone call, your son, who had pretended to be unconscious, got up and tried to attack her.
I rushed forward and stabbed him with my sword, one sword after another... and sent him to meet the King of Hell.
I still remember where each stab landed.
Do you want me to show you?"
Jiang Rong pointed out the places where she had pierced her.
"No! I don't want to listen! I don't want to hear this! Why! Why are you telling me this!" Madam Bai roared, "Why are you telling me this!"
"Didn't you say you wanted fairness? I'm giving you what you call fairness." Jiang Rong smiled: "You also want to know the truth, right? Hmm?"
"You killed my son!" Mrs. Bai finally accepted this reality. Over the years, she had dreamed countless times of the tragic scene of her son's death, and she remembered the location of those wounds very clearly.
Seeing Jiang Rong pointing out one thing after another, Mrs. Bai could no longer deceive herself.
When she glared at Jiang Rong with extremely resentful eyes, she saw Jiang Rong's neck, where knife scars mixed with burn scars were spreading towards his chest and shoulders.
At that moment, Mrs. Bai's anger was replaced by guilt.
"Ever since I survived, I have been collecting evidence of the Bai family's crimes. I have never given up on the day I can bring you down. The Bai family has absolute power in East City, but I believe that even then, there will be a day when light will shine through their fingers.
Finally, I have waited for it.”
Jiang Rong's tone was extremely relaxed. She put on her coat, zipped it up, and gave Mrs. Bai a smile: "You will be punished for multiple crimes. You will be able to see your son soon, perhaps even faster than your cancer.
From now on, there will be no more Bai family in East City."
The evidence she collected this time was enough to wipe out the Bai family.
No one can escape!
"Why! Why are you doing this!" Mrs. Bai clenched her fists.
"Fairness." Jiang Rong said calmly, "Because I want fairness."
"!" Mrs. Bai's pupils trembled and she looked at her in disbelief.
Finally, Mrs. Bai gritted her teeth and asked her, "Aren't you afraid that I will report you? She took advantage of her youth to take the blame for you many years ago, and now it's time for her to pay the price!"
"Do you understand what acquittal means? Legally illiterate?" Jiang Rong chuckled and walked out of the interrogation room, leaving her with only one final thought: "How can you think the higher-ups don't know anything? Huh?"
After saying this, Jiang Rong didn't look at Mrs. Bai again. She walked straight out and saw Kong Xiyan at the door of the police station.
Kong Xiyan just stood there, looking up at the sky, and exhaled a puff of white mist in the cold wind.
Jiang Rong walked towards her step by step, recalling the scene many years ago in his mind.
At that time, she was so bloodthirsty that by the time she came to her senses, it was too late.
She still held the knife in her hand and murmured, "I, I killed someone... I... I'm done, I'm done..."
"No matter how you look at it, this is self-defense?" Kong Xiyan squatted beside him, holding her chin with both hands and looking at Bai Shao who was still holding a gun in his hand.
There is nothing you can do when facing a gunman who uses a knife to defend himself.
"But, but I got first place in the written test. As long as I pass the review, I will...but I..." Her mind was in a mess and she felt her tongue was tied.
The originally open life fell into endless darkness at this moment.
Obviously, she wanted to carry on her father's legacy.
Obviously, she should have a bright and glorious life.
Obviously,...
She was in so much pain, her body was in pain every time she moved, her heart was in pain, even breathing was painful.
"There is only one way..."
She felt that her life was completely hopeless. Not only had she destroyed everything she had, but she had also tarnished her father's heroic reputation.
Her heroic father was upright until his death, so how could he have a daughter who killed someone?
Now that things have come to this, there is only one thing left to do.
She gripped the knife tightly in her hand, looking at the bloody blade, feeling a little bewildered.
At this moment, a pair of warm hands covered her hand holding the knife and took the knife away from her hand.
She looked at Kong Xiyan in a daze.
"In that case...just consider it as me who killed him." Kong Xiyan held the knife and smiled at her: "You live well, and leave the rest to me."
