Chapter 32
So, we really can’t win.
And there really is no way to make this group of scum receive punishment and retribution.
I don’t believe it.
Under my urging, Deng Xingxing and the others rekindled their fighting spirit.
After enduring blow after blow, we decided to shout out with our own lives.
If public opinion is suppressed, it must be because our cries aren’t loud enough.
If the police don’t care, it must be because the case isn’t big enough.
If our families don’t believe us, it must be because the price isn’t tragic enough.
That night, we received a verbal message from Teacher Zhang: “After the May Day Gala, behave well. The School Leadership will bring people over.”
This meant that after that performance of Swan Lake, we would be completely reduced to commodities.
We would become playthings for even more people.
In the silence, in the suffocating moment,
Qin Xue suggested, “Why don’t we just kill ourselves?”
As long as we make a big enough scene, someone will have to investigate.
If no one investigates, then public opinion isn’t strong enough, and there isn’t enough evidence.
Even if all our chat records on our phones are urgently deleted by the executioners, what does it matter?
Deng Xingxing’s record of buying poison is on the online shopping platform.
She hid the receipt in a sanitary pad package.
Cheng Youran took photos, and some recordings and videos are on her backup phone.
She was afraid the School Leadership would take away her belongings after her death, so she deliberately told her mother that there was evidence of her stepfather’s molestation on her phone.
Mom Cheng really did come to take the phone, and deleted all the evidence related to the stepfather.
But the real evidence was never in the photo album.
It was in the hidden apps on the phone.
Cheng Youran gambled that her mother still had a shred of conscience, so she deliberately saved a photo of the two of them in the album.
She bet her mother wouldn’t destroy the phone.
Cheng Youran won her bet.
Qin Xue kept all the transfer records, which are the most direct evidence.
