The letter was finally delivered to Wang Mingjiao. Looking at the paper, Wang Mingjiao was also shocked.
This letter he wrote...why on earth is it here?
It can't be related to this case, right?
Before he could think, Su Ruoxue pressed on, "Wang Mingjiao, did you write this letter?"
Wang Mingjiao sweated and gritted his teeth as he admitted the fact: "It is indeed written by me. I wonder how you got it?"
The content inside was read by several people. Wang Mingjiao's face turned red. It was really too socially dead.
"This letter was found on this black dress. The content inside expressed love for Li." Chen Yunxuan stated the facts calmly.
As soon as these words were spoken, the villagers became lively again.
"Wang Mingjiao actually did such a thing. I'm afraid he wanted to force himself on the girl and then deceive her with love letters!"
"Oh, I didn't expect that Wang Mingjiao really likes Li."
"Nonsense, Li is the most beautiful woman in our Qingshi Village after all! If I were not married, I would like her too!"
"Yo? Your ears are itchy, right?"
"Hey! It hurts! My wife, I was wrong!"
Zhou Tiezhu slammed the gavel, looked at Wang Mingjiao, and asked, "Wang Mingjiao, how do you want to explain?"
"Brother Tiezhu, it's true that I wrote this letter, but I don't know why it appeared on the black clothes... But I definitely didn't do this!"
Wang Mingjiao hesitated, not knowing how to prove his innocence for a moment.
With a bang of the gavel, Zhou Tiezhu shouted, "This case is very clear. It was Wang Mingjiao who did it. The evidence is irrefutable!"
"The verdict is now..."
Lin Tongxi quickly stopped Zhou Tiezhu's movements with his hands and whispered in his ear, "Brother Tiezhu, you're being too hasty. What if he has an alibi?"
Seeing that it was Lin Tongxi who stopped him, Zhou Tiezhu finally put down the gavel in his hand and discussed with Lin Tongxi in a low voice: "If there is an alibi, then no one will be the rapist. How will we explain it to the villagers when the time comes?"
Hearing this, Lin Tongxi held his forehead. It seemed that he only wanted the result, not whether it was correct or not.
"Brother Tiezhu, you would rather kill a thousand people by mistake than let one person go." Lin Tongxi complained helplessly.
Zhou Tiezhu then retorted: "How could that be? Your brother Tiezhu can still count. Even if he killed someone by mistake, it was only one."
"..." Lin Tongxi felt exhausted. If he had known earlier, he shouldn't have let Zhou Tiezhu be the presiding judge. He then continued to persuade, "Just continue with the trial. If the real murderer isn't him, then if something goes wrong later, you'll have to worry about it. You might even get a reputation for making arbitrary judgments."
"That... is true." Zhou Tiezhu finally understood and asked Wang Mingjiao to prove his innocence: "Wang Mingjiao, do you have any other excuses? For example, where did you go? What did you do? Does anyone know?"
"Xiaosheng..." Wang Mingjiao hesitated, finally choosing to conceal the truth: "At night, Xiaosheng was just taking a walk nearby, and then he accidentally fell. That's what happened."
"Come out for a walk so late at night? Do you have such a hobby?" Zhou Tiezhu was puzzled.
Wang Mingjiao glanced at Li and said, "...I have read many books on sages and would never do such a thing. Please trust me!"
Even the patient Lin Tongxi couldn't stand such a perfunctory reply. He said, "Wang Mingjiao, what's the point of just saying this? Why don't you say something useful?"
Wang Mingjiao remained silent, as if some invisible force was suppressing him.
"I can't believe a scholar would do such a thing."
"What are you waiting for? Wang Mingjiao is the rapist. Stop wasting everyone's time!"
"Drag him to the pig cage!"
“…” Wang Mingjiao wanted to open his mouth, but thought of what happened last night.
Compared with Li Ningxiang's life and safety, what does his personal reputation mean?
Moreover, if he tells what happened last night, he will definitely be executed by the villagers.
Moreover, the entire village might die.
Suddenly, a rotten egg was thrown at Wang Mingjiao's face.
Wang Mingjiao didn't say much, just closed his eyes. He really had never done this, so what if he was misunderstood by everyone?
Seeing that Wang Mingjiao remained silent, the villagers thought he had agreed and took out the rotten vegetables they had prepared for a long time.
"Hey, hey, hey! Throw it more accurately, don't throw it at me!" Zhao Yongfeng protested.
Chen Yunxuan was watching everyone's reactions calmly and noticed that one person had a strange smile on his face, as if his evil plan had succeeded.
Is there something else hidden in the case?
"Hey, hey, hey!" Lin Tongxi pulled out a loud speaker and hurriedly ordered, "Everyone, stop! The verdict has to be announced!"
Other villagers who were responsible for maintaining order tried to stop them, but finally Zhou Tiezhu slammed the gavel and suppressed the villagers' arrogance.
He stood up, put his hands on his hips, and yelled, "Fuck you! Are you going to let me talk? Wait until this is over before you smash it!"
"Since the case is clear and straightforward, and Wang Mingjiao has been unable to prove his innocence, the following verdict is hereby announced!"
On the other side, Li was looking at Wang Mingjiao with a dead heart.
The last person she loved had already left her, and now this person also liked her, and she also had feelings for him...
But why... did this person choose to express his love to him in this way?
It was really too much... Li once felt that she was blind and had misjudged the person.
There is no hope in life anymore, so I might as well end it and go see my dead husband.
Everyone's attention was focused on Zhou Tiezhu, waiting for the verdict.
