On a rainy night, the school beauty knocked on my door and asked for shelter

In front of Su Yaxi and the few tourists who were gradually gathering around, Chen Mo stopped recording and then looked at the scenic area security guards who had rushed over after hearing the commotion and the forest ranger who "happened" to be patrolling nearby.

“Security guard, and this forest ranger friend…” Chen Mo’s voice was clear and calm, “We’ve encountered a murder. This girl…”

He pointed to Su Yaxi on the ground, whose face had suddenly changed drastically, and said, "They started following us as soon as we entered the park, and deliberately created the illusion of a fall in the dangerous area of ​​the glass walkway, intending to knock my girlfriend off the cliff."

"No! No! I just tripped by accident!" Su Yaxi screamed, tears streaming down her face as she tried to elicit sympathy from those around her. "I wasn't following you! I didn't mean to hit anyone!"

She cried so hard her eyes were streaked with tears, and she looked incredibly pitiful.

The surrounding tourists began to whisper among themselves; some looked at Chen Mo suspiciously, while others looked at Su Yaxi.

“I’m sorry, but the entire process I just described was recorded by two recording devices on my body at different angles. This includes your following, approaching, deliberately tripping yourself, and the clear actions of forcefully striking you with the intent to kill.” Chen Mo waved the devices in his hand. “I demand that the police be called immediately and that the scene and this evidence be preserved. This girl’s behavior has seriously endangered public safety and constitutes suspected intentional homicide.”

“Recording… equipment?” Su Yaxi, who had just been putting on a great show, suddenly lost all color in her face, and even her lips were trembling.

She never expected that Chen Mo was prepared in advance and even brought professional recording equipment!
She never expected that he would be so decisive and calm as to accuse her of "premeditated murder" in front of the public!
Chen Mo remained unmoved and handed the recorder to the arriving security guards and forest rangers: "Please watch the playback. Also, I suggest checking the public surveillance cameras at the park entrance and along the boardwalk; they should also show her following us. Her shoelaces were tied in a very unusual way—a slipknot and very long, which would easily trip her on flat ground. It's impossible for her to have worn them like that the whole way; she must have changed them near the spot where she was about to commit the crime after she got on the glass boardwalk. With so many tourists holding up their phones or cameras along the way, someone must have taken pictures."

This could serve as evidence that she premeditatedly orchestrated the 'accident.' If necessary, I can provide relevant clues and some evidence that she had previously attempted to cause an 'accident' to harm my girlfriend.

His tone was professional and confident, and the chain of evidence he presented was clear, including dashcam footage, possible public surveillance footage, unusual shoelaces, and past behavioral patterns, instantly giving him the upper hand.

The crowd that had just been whispering and thinking Chen Mo was making a fuss over the young girl's feelings instantly became indignant and began to condemn Su Yaxi, who was quite pretty at such a young age, for having such a vicious heart.

The security guard and the forest ranger exchanged a glance, their expressions turning serious.

They reviewed the replay of the dramatic scene from the recorder. Although it looked like an accident, the direction and force of Su Yaxi's collision, combined with the environment, did appear extremely unnatural. They also noticed that Su Yaxi's shoelaces were clearly tied incorrectly.

"Please come with us to the security room. This matter requires police intervention," the security guard said sternly.

Su Yaxi panicked completely. She struggled to stand up and tried to argue, but in the face of irrefutable video evidence and Chen Mo's calm accusations, her tears and explanations seemed pale and powerless.

She glared at Chen Mo with resentment, her eyes filled with venom, but she could no longer maintain that mask of weakness and pitifulness.

The police arrived quickly.

After reviewing the video evidence provided by Chen Mo, conducting preliminary interviews with tourists and staff present, and retrieving some park surveillance footage, Su Yaxi was summoned and taken away in accordance with the law for further investigation.

Although she was a minor, she was suspected of intentional homicide, and there was some supporting evidence, so the police took it very seriously. In the subsequent investigation, Chen Mo provided all the clues and indirect evidence he could collect regarding Su Yaxi's abnormal behavior, and emphasized that Su Yaxi had a meticulous mind and the ability to disguise herself beyond her age, as well as the deliberate acts of accidental harm in her behavior pattern, especially the evidence from the bookstore video that she had done this once before.

Su Ya-xi initially denied it firmly, insisting it was an accident and a misunderstanding, and tried to downplay the incident by using her underage status and the conflict with her sisters.

However, faced with clear video evidence, especially the evidence of her deliberately cutting the safety rope in front of the glass walkway and altering the way her shoelaces were tied (which was recorded by Daofeng), the obvious signs and direction of the force she exerted when she crashed into Su Yuqing, and the psychological and behavioral analysis conducted by the police in conjunction with other clues, her defense was full of loopholes.

More importantly, Chen Mo proposed and promoted the application for psychological evaluation and psychiatric assessment of Su Yaxi.

The assessment results showed that she did not have a serious mental illness that affected her subjective will and caused uncontrollable behavior.

However, it reveals his personality traits, including a high degree of greed, lack of empathy, strong manipulative tendencies, and performative characteristics, as well as a latent, pathological jealousy and destructive tendency toward specific individuals.

This professional assessment provides a psychological explanation for her behavior, making her claim of "accident" even less tenable.

Ultimately, faced with conclusive evidence and professional assessment, Su Ya-xi was found guilty of attempted murder. Given her age, the judicial process will take all factors into consideration and take appropriate legal measures.

Although he may not face the severe penalties of an adult due to his age, mandatory psychological intervention, behavioral correction, strict supervision, and community correction measures are unavoidable.

Her file contains an indelible record that will have a profound impact on her future education, employment, and even her life.

When Su Chengfeng and Lin Shiya learned of this, their world completely collapsed. They couldn't believe that their obedient daughter had such a terrible side, and their family was plunged into a huge storm and pain.

For a moment, they even blamed Su Yuqing for the crime.

It wasn't until Chen Mo coldly stated that without Su Yuqing's understanding, Su Yaxi, who had just turned fourteen two days ago, would have been imprisoned for a year and a half that day, that they finally became afraid and came to their senses.

They kept coming over to say nice things.

Chen Mo had anticipated the reactions of the two, and he was taking this opportunity to let Su Yuqing see clearly what kind of person her father really was.

This would also reduce her unnecessary fantasies about him, so that she might unintentionally be hurt by him in the future.

When Su Yuqing saw that her father not only didn't care about her, the victim, but also blamed her for harming her sister, she truly felt a thread break in her heart.

The fatherly love and affection I had longed to rekindle turned out to be nothing more than this! (End of Chapter)
