Yi Wen did not know what had been learned that caused him to be pressed down.

It was precisely because of this information gap that it led to him being tricked and breaking through his psychological defense to confess.

This was because after the police officer who was handling the case learned about his identity and relationship with the victim, he directly told him that if he confessed and admitted to the crime, if he received a letter of forgiveness, there was a high chance that the sentence would be lighter.

With this hope in front of him, Yi Wen gave up resisting and confessed bit by bit.

"My family worked hard to raise her. Now that I just graduated from technical school and I'm about to start a family and career, this woman doesn't care about her family after she becomes rich! What right does she have!

"I asked her for money a few times and she chased me away. She's a woman and will marry out sooner or later. This money should be mine!

"However, she was so heartless. Thus, I wanted to take revenge on her."

After his psychological defense was broken and there was no danger of a heavy sentence, Yi Wen's resentment towards Lin Shiqin erupted.

However, even in this situation, he had his own cunningness. He insisted that he wanted to take revenge. He did not expect someone to die. He did not know that their production team would pull the wire so high.

However, it was obvious that his true thoughts were not limited to this. He was not a member of the production team, but he had spent a lot of effort to figure out the relevant situation. Naturally, he had been planning this for a long time.

To be able to leave an aura on the wire after a week and be captured by Wang Yi, one could imagine how extreme his emotions were.

Ever since he was young, he had been influenced by her and felt that this was natural!

After Lin Shiqin ran away from home, they did not care much about her. It was a relief to have one less person to take care of. Only his mother complained a little and said that she would collect a betrothal gift when she got married in the future.

It would be best if she could marry a rich man. That way, they could live off her for the rest of their lives.

His father also tacitly agreed to this point. He said that with her beauty, she should be able to do it. He did not care about how she was doing outside for now. He would look for her when she was about to start a family.

Yi Wen, who had been influenced since he was young, also took this for granted.

Just as they were waiting for the fruit to ripen, a neighbor suddenly told them that Lin Shiqin had struck it rich and was going to become a big star.

Looking at the popularity on the Internet and the once-in-5,000-years beauty hype, as well as a few television dramas and movie characters that she got, their family was instantly overjoyed.

They did not know how much money there was in detail, but there would definitely be not a lot of people who could appear on television and movies.

It was also in this context that their family came to look for Lin Shiqin many times.

However, Lin Shiqin's personality was also strong. After experiencing that kind of encounter, she ran away from home and ignored them for so long. She had worked hard until now, so it was impossible for her to let these parasites do as they pleased.

She directly and forcefully rejected them and refused to meet them.

Even when they threatened to expose her history, she did not take it to heart.

She was sure that she could get sympathy for such things.

Regardless of whether they threatened to sue or expose her, she dealt with them easily.

In the past, she did not have the ability to resist, but now that she had been through so much, Lin Shiqin was naturally not afraid!

She was just a little sad that her mother treated her so differently.

However, it was also because of her mother's attitude that she made up her mind to sever their relationship.

However, while she did have the determination to sever the relationship, she did not expect her brother to be so extreme!

That very same day, Lin Shiqin's mother and stepfather came over to the police station.

Lin Shiqin's mother was a farmer woman. She looked a little similar to Lin Shiqin. It could be seen that she was also a beauty when she was young, but because of the hard work and oppression of life, the corners of her eyebrows were already filled with wrinkles.

Especially when she heard this shocking news to her, her face was filled with worry.

On the other hand, Lin Shiqin's stepfather was a thin, dark man. At this moment, he seemed very calm.

"Officer, that stinking… Lin Shiqin only has us few family members. We're also in pain that the murderer is her younger brother. We've already lost our daughter. Please don't take our son away."

Yi Wu calmly explained the situation to the police officers. At the same time, it was the most effective way to reduce Yi Wen's punishment.

The prosecution would indeed consider such matters appropriately.

Moreover, if the sentence was light, as family members, they would definitely not appeal. If the sentence was heavy, they would definitely appeal.

Lin Shiqin had a simple social relationship. If her family chose to give up the prosecution, coupled with the reduction of the sentence from confessing, Yi Wen's sentence would indeed not be too heavy.

Yi Wen insisted that he wanted revenge, but no one could prove what he was thinking. Without enough evidence, he could only be convicted according to the criteria of 'death due to negligence'.

Coupled with the fact that he had confessed and accepted the punishment, as well as the understanding of the victim's family, it was very likely that he would be given a lighter punishment. In the end, it was very likely that he would be punished with jail for three or fewer years!

Similarly, for the investigators, even if there were some old detectives who suspected that this guy's real motive was to kill someone, they didn't dare to do anything rash without evidence.

It was good that the case was closed. Otherwise, if they were serious, even if the felony was really decided in the end, who would thank them? The victim's family? On the contrary, if the case was overturned because of insufficient evidence, they would have to bear the responsibility!

Now, everyone was happy. Other than the dead who would not make a sound, everyone could get a satisfactory result.

"Leader, we still want to ask about our daughter's inheritance. Our daughter has left and our son has gone in jail. We are alone and have no one to rely on. When our son comes out, we have to arrange a marriage for him. It will definitely be very expensive with a criminal record, so…"

Mother Lin had just signed some documents for bail when she started asking about the inheritance.

Although he could be released on bail, he still had to wait for the prosecution to prosecute. His mother also wanted to fight for a probation and take the opportunity to hire a good lawyer.

They were also the victim's family members. The victim could not speak anymore. With a good lawyer's suggestion, there was definitely room for maneuver!

The inheritance was theirs to begin with. Now, they wanted to get it as soon as possible.

This kind of attitude made the investigators feel extremely disgusted.

However, if the other party's request was reasonable and legal, so they could only provide some relevant proof.

Rules were meant to protect the vast majority of people. In essence, the benefits of protecting the program were far greater than the disadvantages.

However, as long as there were rules, there would be loopholes. When they encountered some people who used loopholes to disgust others, they would sometimes appear powerless.

This is something that civilization must experience in order to move forward.

Except…

The loophole was not something that could only be exploited by the disgusting party!

"Do you want to do it yourself, or should I?"

Leaning against the street lamp by the roadside, Wang Yi used the shared view to look at those faces and couldn't help but say another sentence.

"I'll do it myself. Previously, I just wanted to make their crimes public."

At this point, Lin Shiqin turned around and smiled brightly at Wang Yi.

"Boss, don't tell me you think I'll be soft-hearted towards them?"

Seeing that Lin Shiqin seemed to be much more relaxed, Wang Yi stood up and walked towards the rental house. The server was about to arrive.

"Pay attention to the impact. Don't hurt the innocent."

"Understood."

The next day on the news, a family of three was electrocuted due to a malfunction in the water heater.

The three victims looked terrified, as if they had been greatly frightened before they died.

In the end, after investigation, this was considered an accident…
