My villain wants to save himself, but the yandere heroine disagrees

"Yeah." Orson nodded. "Is Lit in this room?"

"Well, but..."

"but what?"

"President, with your current status, if you go in, I'm afraid you will be criticized."

"I know, but he is my brother. Regardless of whether he did those things or not, as an older brother, I have to go and see, right?"

"I understand how you feel, President." The Discipline Committee member nodded. "But I still ask you to be careful about what you do."

"You don't need to teach me these things." Orson said this, pushed open the door and walked in.

Li Te was prepared to wait for a long time, but he didn't expect that the door would be opened again not long after.

Litt looked up and saw Orson at the door. He opened his mouth but didn't know how to start.

"Orson..."

"Yeah." Orson nodded, walked into the room, closed the door, and then sat next to Lit. "Tell me what happened."

"Okay..." Lit said this and repeated what he had just said to the discipline committee member.

"This is clearly a false accusation!" Orson said angrily after hearing this. "How can they lock you up here just based on one side's words?"

Although he said so, Orson also knew that this was the power of the Discipline Department. In order to prevent the suspect from committing crimes again, the Discipline Department would often use semi-compulsory means to detain the suspect.

But Leeteuk is completely innocent!

Chapter 75: Public Opinion

"It's okay, Litt, don't worry, I will prove your innocence to them." Orson said this and touched Litt's head with heartache.

"It's useless, Orson, they don't believe me..." Lit shook his head in despair. "Those people only believe what they see. They have too many witnesses. I can't do anything..."

"No." Orson disagreed with Litt's words. "The presence of witnesses doesn't mean the evidence is true. As long as we can produce irrefutable evidence, the lies will be exposed."

"But... there is no evidence." Li Te's tone was a little broken.

"It will happen, Lit, it will happen." Orson comforted Lit again, then stood up. "Wait here for a while, I will help you prove your innocence."

"Don't leave this room until the truth comes to light. They will bring you food." Orson said this and prepared to leave the room.

Because he knew that if Leeteuk went out, he would face more criticism. Although many people might not be instructed by people with ulterior motives, they would be led by public opinion.

Especially once Orson took Litt out, he couldn't imagine what kind of public opinion he would face.

Orson went to the Discipline Department and asked for confessions from the discipline committee members who were investigating the case. After seeing the confessions of the victim and witnesses, he couldn't help but get furious.

"This is clearly a collusion. This is a premeditated frame-up!" Orson shouted.

The discipline committee members of the Discipline Department didn't dare to speak in front of Orson.

"President Orson!" At this time, Manuel appeared behind Orson. "We are still investigating. If it is confirmed that this is a frame-up, we will punish the person who framed Lit and help Lit restore his reputation."

"But now, please don't interfere with our investigation!" Manuel rarely spoke in a tough tone in front of Orson. "Otherwise, I will use my authority as an executive director to impeach you!"

"...Okay." Orson nodded. "Then tell me, how are you going to investigate?"

"We have our own way of investigating nature," said Manuel.

"Okay, I hope you will keep your word and conduct an impartial investigation." Orson said this and walked out of the room.

At the door of the room, Orson saw Olivia standing there and apologized: "Sorry, Olivia, I'm a little busy today and can't accompany you."

"It's okay." Olivia shook her head. "Orson, calm down. Being impulsive now won't help Li Te at all. Instead, it will hurt him."

"Well, thank you." Orson nodded and left.

"Really? This incident must be related to the female victim. Why don't you investigate it..." Orson said.

He walked away muttering to himself, and Olivia heard everything he said.

Olivia walked into the Discipline Department.

After Orson walked away, he deliberately stopped at the corner. After seeing Olivia walk into the Discipline Department, he smiled and continued to walk out.

"I'm sorry, because the suspect this time, Lit, is President Orson's younger brother, so he was a little out of control just now." Olivia said.

"It's okay." Manuel shook his head. "I know the president is very angry and his brother is suspected of being framed, but the discipline department can't act on emotion."

"Yeah." Olivia walked into the Discipline Department and asked, "Well, I want to ask, the victim is a classmate of Leeteuk, right? What's his name?"

"I'm sorry, I can't tell you, Vice President."

"Ah, you're worried that I might threaten that girl." Olivia smiled. "I see. I won't interfere with your work. I wish you a smooth investigation."

Having said that, Olivia also walked out of the office.

……

On the other side, as soon as Orson walked out of the student union building, he saw protesting students outside.

When they saw Orson coming out, they came closer to ask some questions.

"President Orson! May I ask if the suspect, Li Te, dared to do this because he has the support of the student council president like you?"

"President Orson, please give us an explanation!"

"President Orson..."

Orson looked at the students who came over, took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and then said, "Regarding what you said, I can only say that I have no comment."

"Also, before the truth comes out, I hope everyone will not discuss the suspect too much, because the suspect may also be framed."

"That's it." After saying this, Orson squeezed through the crowd and walked towards the administrative building.

"President Orson, do you think that Leeteuk was framed?"

"President Orson, is it because Li Te is your brother that you are acting like this?!"

"President Orson, would you use your authority as the president for personal gain during the interrogation?"

……

"So, Orson, you found me, right?" In the dean's office, Luca took a sip of tea, looked at Orson, and asked.

"Yes, Dean, you are the only one who can help now."

“But the Board of Directors and the Student Union are almost parallel organizations, and we have no way of interfering with the Discipline Department.” Luca said, shaking his head helplessly.

"Besides, Orson, since you are so sure that Li Te would not do this, why don't you choose to believe the results of the investigation of the Discipline Department?"

"..." Orson was silent.

"You should know that every standing director of the student union has never left a stain during their tenure. They are the most fair people elected by the public. You can trust them completely."

"However, public opinion may not last until the investigation results come out. If the students complain and choose to vote to impeach the student union, this matter will be dragged on for longer and Leeteuk's studies will be delayed."

"I understand, Orson." Luca nodded. "You're worried about Lit, but isn't it in difficult situations that people grow?"

"Your life has been too smooth. This incident is a test not only for Leeteuk, but also for you."

"If you can get through this smoothly, you will definitely benefit a lot in terms of understanding human hearts." Luca said this, pointing to his heart.

"Okay, Orson, that's all I can say. You can go back first."

"Yeah." Orson knew that he couldn't convince Luca, so he could only nod and then left the dean's office.

……

On the other side, Olivia was flipping through the borrowed student roster of Class 1, Grade 1 in the dormitory and found a few people she thought were suspicious.

Just at this time, Lianka also came back.

"I never thought that the Stranik family all has the blood of scum." Seeing Olivia flipping through the list in the living room, Lianka said without hesitation.

"Why do you say that? Even if Litt is really a suspect in this incident, it is only Litt." Olivia did not look at Lianka, but continued to look through the student roster.

"Oh, sister, you may not know that Orson has found another woman outside without telling you."

"What?!" Olivia raised her head almost instantly and stared at Lianka, making the latter a little nervous.

"Lianka, what did you just say?"

Chapter 76: No use to me

"Ah, sister, you probably don't know, a woman named Celinina." Lianka said this and told Olivia what Donny told her about Orson and Celinina.

“…” Olivia was shocked when she heard this, but she was just shocked.

After all, even if Orson and Celinina really had an affair, his fiancée was still Olivia.

Moreover, as the head of the Antica branch of the Silver Moon Chamber of Commerce, Chelinina needs to run business and cannot come to Saint Laurent City all the time. It is better for her to sit back and wait.

"Sister, aren't you angry? Orson is having an affair with another woman behind your back!"

"A little bit." Olivia nodded. "But now there are more important things."

As she said this, she suddenly remembered that her sister was in the same class as Leeteuk.

"Um, Lianka, my sister is busy and needs your help."

"Hmm? What can I do for you?"

"Please help me check these students and see which ones seem to have a low presence in the class and whose family conditions are not very good."

"Oh." Lianka nodded, then looked at the list and pointed out a person on it. "I remember, this one is called Anya, she always wears those two sets of school uniforms, as if she has no other clothes. Her family is probably not well off, and her presence in the class is not high."

"Okay, thank you Lianka." Olivia basically identified the victim, and then made her own plans.

……

On the other side, in a cafe, Donny and Manuel sat opposite each other.

"Director Manuel, it must have been quite a while since our last communication." Donnie said as he took a sip of coffee.

"Well, I remember the last time we met was at the start-of-term party. You offered me a glass of wine, but I didn't like drinking, so I drank water instead."

"Yeah." Donnie nodded. "I remember that the reason you gave, Director Manuel, seemed to be that drinking was a hindrance, right?"

"Ah."

"Haha, actually drinking alcohol doesn't necessarily cause trouble. Getting drunk is the only way to cause trouble. For example, we usually have a few drinks at a banquet. It's just a way to enjoy ourselves. It's inevitable to do it."

"You called me out today, not just to chat, right?" Manuel stared at Tony with a somewhat impatient tone.

"Of course not." Donnie shook his head. "I want to talk about the incident you are investigating."

"Oh? From what you said, you have a clue?" Manuel was a little curious why Donny would take the initiative to bring up this matter.

"As for clues, I don't have any," said Donnie. "But I think that as a standing director, and with you, Mr. Manuel, who is known for your integrity, you must get to the bottom of this matter and give an explanation to the excited students."

As he said this, Tony took out a stack of paper bills in units of 100 gold coins and handed it to Manuel.

"This little money is my respect for you, and also my sponsorship."

"Please make sure to seek justice for Anya and bring Li Te to justice."

"I believe that during your term, you will not fear the powerful and will impartially judge the student union president's brother. This will definitely add a strong touch to your career as an executive director. At the same time, it can also serve as capital for your campaign for the next student union president."

Manuel smiled as he listened to what Donnie said.

Then he stood up, raised the banknotes and threw them over Donny's head.

"Listen, Donny." Manuel said this with an unquestionable firmness in his tone.

"Since you know my character, why are you pretending to bribe me?"

"I will investigate this matter further. No matter whether the final result is in your favor or in Orson's favor, I will maintain fairness."

"Your approach may be useful to others, but don't forget that I am the Duke's son, just like you. I am not short of money, and I am not afraid of your identity."

"This time, for the sake of the two families, I can pretend that I didn't see it, but if there is a next time, bribing student union members is written in the school rules. Do I need to remind you again?"

Having said that, he sneered, patted Donnie on the shoulder, then straightened his back and walked out of the restaurant.

Donny clenched his fists, looked at the banknotes scattered on the ground, and walked out angrily.

But halfway out, he seemed reluctant to part with his money, so he turned back angrily and picked up the scattered paper bills.

I picked them up one by one.
