It was a pity that such a brilliant life had withered away, and anger surged at how those scoundrels had so easily evaded their responsibilities.
"They should experience the taste of being abused to death themselves."
"How did their parents raise such worthless people?"
"Rumor has it that these few are rich second-generation heirs from prominent families; with money, the law is just a piece of scrap paper to them."
"I hope they come back as pigs in their next life."
"No, they aren't even worthy of being livestock!"
The Noodle Shop Owner stood before the old man, rubbing his greasy hands together, unable to meet the old man's gaze.
"What happened?" The old man trembled with rage.
The old lady slapped him on the shoulder, "Are you even human?"
If it weren't for the police holding her back, she would have already punched him in the face.
"I—I don't know what happened. The surveillance cameras just happened to break down those days, so..."
So, all the footage from those days had been lost.
That complete Evidence Chain now had a gap.
Ma Yuan found them utterly disgusting, yet he still shielded the Noodle Shop Owner behind him.
"Why did your cameras break down at that specific time?"
"Doesn't your conscience hurt?"
"You face so many customers every day; can you face them?"
"Can you face Xin Xin?"
"She was only six years old!"
"She had just reached school age!"
"What did she do wrong to deserve such abuse?"
"What did those abusers do wrong to be shielded like this?"
The old man and woman grasped Ma Yuan's hands, looking at him with hope.
"Officer, they did something wrong; they will be punished, right?"
"They will be executed, buried alongside Xin Xin, right?"
Ma Yuan remained silent.
He clenched his fists tightly, repeatedly telling himself in his heart.
Stay resolute.
The Noodle Shop Owner hid behind the police, mustering the courage to speak up.
"You should drop the appeal; we can't afford to provoke the people behind them."
"Just consider it as Xin Xin's fate."
"Look, no one dares to report this online anymore."
"Those who spoke out for Xin Xin have either been silenced or subjected to online harassment."
"You can still withdraw your lawsuit; it's not too late."
The old man shook his head. "I won't withdraw the lawsuit."
"They must face the punishment they deserve."
"Even if it costs my life."
The old woman cried out hoarsely, "Xin Xin, it's Grandpa who failed you."
"It's Grandpa's incompetence that couldn't bring you justice."
"It's Grandpa's uselessness!"
"Grandpa will join you!"
The Noodle Shop Owner wanted to persuade them further but was pushed out by Ma Yuan and the others.
"Your conscience has been eaten by dogs; don't disgust us here."
"What you're doing will make you regret it one day!"
The Noodle Shop Owner left awkwardly.
He didn't want to do this either, but he was also forced into a corner.
He had a wife and children to support at home. He couldn't afford to lose this job. As time passed day by day, things grew increasingly worse. Evidence dwindled, witnesses changed their testimonies, and the once clear evidence chain was completely erased.
When the case was decided, everyone was taken aback. Those rich second-generation heirs were surprisingly not sentenced. Instead, the driver and the nanny received prison terms.
As they emerged from the detention center, the faces of those rich heirs were filled with smug satisfaction. "I told you all along, you can't do anything to me."
"I have money; I have connections."
"You poor fools can only watch helplessly as your daughters and granddaughters are bullied."
"Not convinced? Come at me!"
