[But there's really a lot of homework. I have to write until one or two in the morning every night and get up at five to study... I don't get enough sleep at all.]

[I really want to sleep.]

[Once in class, I fell asleep...]

[Yan Kailong called me out and slapped me in front of everyone.]

[I didn't dare to speak, and I didn't dare to tell you guys...]

[Once I didn't finish my homework, Yan Kailong told me to get lost, saying if I couldn't finish my homework, I shouldn't embarrass myself here.]

[I still remember, when I didn't do well on a test, Yan Kailong made me make a public confession in front of the whole school... Made me promise never to let it happen again.]

[Yan Kailong also said if I continued like this, he'd have me expelled.]

[Yan Kailong is really scary...]

[He's always lecturing, scolding, hitting, humiliating people...]

[Mom, Dad, I'm sorry.]

[I'm so ashamed...]

[Once I was punished to stand, I wanted to go to the bathroom, but Yan Kailong just wouldn't let me.]

[He said, with my grades, did I even have the right to use the bathroom?]

[So then, in front of so many people, I couldn't hold it...]

[I didn't do well on this test either, only getting 88 in math.]

[Mom, Dad, I'm scared.]

[I really want to rest.]

[....]

The letter ends here.

And after reaching this point.

The whole room fell silent.

Everyone quieted down.

Gu Chen looked at Yan Kailong at this moment, "So, do you think you can still stand aside uninvolved? That it has nothing to do with you?"

Yan Kailong said, "It's not related to me! I did it for her own good!! Everything I did was for her own good!!! I wanted her to have a better future and prospects, was I wrong? What do her future and prospects have to do with me? I was so good to her, I didn't expect her to misunderstand my intentions, I think Tang Xinran has a mental illness! This episode, it has nothing at all to do with me!!"

Yan Kailong continued to deny it.

The viewers in the livestream were outraged.

[Damn it, that despicable Yan Kailong.]

[Is this even a place fit for humans?]

[Who could withstand such pressure? I know I couldn't.]

[Sleeping three hours a day, who could endure that?]

[This is your way of caring for her? The pressure on her is way too much...]

[Damn it, and humiliating, hitting people, Yan Kailong, you damn well deserve to die!]

[Yan Kailong must be sentenced! Must be sentenced!!]

Seeing Yan Kailong still refusing to admit it, Gu Chen said, "And what about you, Kang Guizhong, do you admit it?"

Kang Guizhong's face turned ashen, "I don't know what you're talking about."

Gu Chen looked at Kang Guizhong and said, "Don't know what I'm talking about? Then let me ask you, the day before the incident, at noon, what did you say when you called Tang Xinran to the office? In front of a group of people, a group of students, you said Tang Xinran was a waste, said living was worse than dying for her, said her living was purely a waste of food, a waste of life."

"Those were your words, weren't they?"

"What else did you do? Besides pressuring and scolding, what else could you do?"

"You even asked Tang Xinran to voluntarily drop out."

Kang Guizhong said, "I don't know what you're talking about, I've never said such things, you're really good at slandering me. After this case finishes, I will definitely sue you."

Gu Chen continued, "Let me ask you, Tang Xinran's desk, who disposed of it? Surveillance footage shows you and Yan Kailong carrying a desk and chairs along with a backpack to the garbage truck, destroying all evidence that very day."

"You thought you destroyed the evidence, but you didn't! Because the suicide note Tang Xinran left at home and online, along with the surveillance footage, can clearly explain everything!"

Kang Guizhong continued, "I don't know what you're talking about."

Gu Chen directly shoved the surveillance footage in Kang Guizhong's face.

"This is the surveillance footage, this is Tang Xinran's suicide note, you don't know what you're talking about? Does not acknowledging it matter?"

"What you've done, in the classroom, was recorded by a new teacher."

"Should we let the entire nation hear how you treated Tang Xinran?"

Then, Gu Chen played the recordings.

In the recordings, there were the sounds of cursing.

And sounds of crying.

And mockery.

All of this completely crushed Tang Xinran.

After Gu Chen presented one piece of evidence after another.

Kang Guizhong said, "I don't know what you're talking about, all your evidence is fake."

Gu Chen said, "You can deny it, but the evidence speaks for itself."

Gu Chen: "The things you usually did, all recorded by the new teacher, all of it is here."

"Over the years, for the so-called higher admission rates, how did you treat struggling students?"

"This USB has a full 50GB of videos and recordings, I'm handing it over to the court now."

Kang Guizhong: "I don't know what you're talking about, these things weren't said by me. I'm going to find a lawyer to sue you."

Gu Chen ignored Kang Guizhong.

Gu Chen continued, "According to Article 234 of the Criminal Law, your actions have constituted the crime of causing death by negligence, punishable by imprisonment of more than three years but less than ten years."

"Article 306, in criminal proceedings, if a defense lawyer or legal agent destroys or fabricates evidence, or threatens or induces a witness to misstate facts or commit perjury, they may face imprisonment of less than three years or detention, or in serious cases, of more than three years but less than seven years."

"And you intentionally destroyed evidence, constituting the crime of destroying evidence, should be sentenced to more than three years but less than seven years in prison."

"Combining the penalties for both crimes, and given your atrocious attitude towards admittance, repeatedly claiming[I don't know what you're talking about], I request the presiding judge to sentence Kang Guizhong to seventeen years in prison, and for civil compensation to Tang Jian Country with 150,000 yuan!"

After Gu Chen said this, Kang Guizhong's attitude changed.

Kang Guizhong suddenly became afraid.

Two crimes, seventeen years!

Seventeen years!!!

Being sentenced to seventeen years means spending the rest of his life in prison!

Kang Guizhong's face turned deathly pale!

If he had confessed earlier, perhaps not committing anything particularly serious, even if sentenced, it would just be a few years.

Lighter punishment usually can considerably reduce the sentence period.

But now, hearing Gu Chen say this... he knew it was all over!

Seventeen years, is this something a person can bear?

Kang Guizhong said, "I'll talk, I'll say everything! I can confess everything, please go for leniency, alright?"

Kang Guizhong said, "I can confess everything! I can tell it all!!"

Gu Chen said, "Too late, the evidence is already right in front of us, all the evidence is already found, what's the point of confessing now? Requesting the presiding judge to heavily punish Kang Guizhong!! No leniency!"
