Chapter 307: This Revenge Is Quite Abstract

In the bride's changing room, as the heroine of this wedding, Matsubara Sayoko was currently receiving final adjustments from the makeup artist.

Next, the bride should wait for the wedding ceremony to officially begin.

However, at this moment, some people arrived at the bride's changing room.

The bride, Matsubara Sayoko, looked at the newcomers with surprise and delight on her face.

"Ran, Sonoko, you've come."

Yet the faces of the former students were not particularly good, their brows still tightly furrowed, which made her somewhat puzzled.

"Why do your faces look so bad?"

"Several makeup teachers, please leave for a moment."

Before Mao Li Lan and Suzuki Sonoko could adjust their state, Hayasaka Ai had already started clearing the room.

The several makeup teachers exchanged glances, then politely stood up.

"Then, Miss Matsubara, we will go rest for a while."

"Uh, um."

Matsubara Sayoko was a bit at a loss, but she still agreed.

17 After the makeup teachers had all left the room, Matsubara Sayoko looked at Ran and Sonoko with a blank expression.

"Ran, Sonoko, what is wrong with you?"

Mao Li Lan bit her lip and was unable to speak for a moment.

Seeing Teacher Matsubara in her pure white wedding dress today, she really found it hard to imagine that today's events would stain that wedding dress with blood-red.

But some words had to be said.

She did not choose to be tactful anymore, but chose to be direct.

"Teacher Matsubara, are you... really going to marry that man?"

Matsubara Sayoko was slightly stunned; at this moment, seeing the anxiety on Ran and Sonoko's faces, she somewhat understood what these two children meant.

"So, you investigated."

Just like Dad.

Matsubara Sayoko was not a fool, nor was she unaware of Dad's work.

Based on her understanding of Dad, for the opposite sex who came into contact with her, Dad had investigated most of their identities.

So, whenever she met Dad recently, she could often hear Dad saying the same words as Ran and Sonoko.

"As expected, Teacher Matsubara, you have always known."

Mao Li Lan could no longer hold back.

"Since you have always known, why do you still choose to marry that man?"

"Is it not good to choose another person?"

To this, Matsubara Sayoko just smiled and shook her head.

"If I had not seen him, perhaps I could have dated someone else."

"But after seeing him, just like in the past, the feeling still tells me, as expected, I still like him."

"Teacher Matsubara!"

Suzuki Sonoko looked at Matsubara Sayoko with a face full of anger.

"He deliberately contacted you; don't you know that?"

"..."

A trace of pain flashed across Matsubara Sayoko's face; where did she not know this matter?

It seems she does know.

Kaguya Sigong shook her head slightly, then glanced at classmate Ren Amamiya beside her.

No wonder classmate Ren Amamiya has always shown a look of not wanting to get involved.

Even the bride herself knows everything.

This is not being forced by others, but her own active choice despite clearly knowing it is dangerous.

The evaluation of this person, Matsubara Sayoko, has only two words.

Foolish.

Knowing clearly that one is the target of revenge, then one should choose to stay away.

Not accept the other party's revenge.

Just because of past affection?

That is merely self-satisfying behavior.

Such self-satisfying behavior often harms more people.

Friends and one's own father will both be harmed.

Suddenly, Kaguya Sigong thought of something, leaned closer to classmate Ren Amamiya, and asked in a low voice.

"Classmate Ren Amamiya, was that woman killed by this Ms. Matsubara's father hitting her?"

Kaguya Sigong's voice was very light, but everyone nearby could hear it.

"No."

"The criminal being chased who caused the car accident and hit that woman was the one responsible."

"That criminal caused more than a dozen murder cases back then, and the targets were also young women with little ability to resist."

Good lord.

Kaguya Sigong's face had even fewer extra expressions, and when looking at Matsubara Sayoko, she added some speechlessness.

The car accident was not directly caused by your father, and the one who hit that woman was a criminal; why do you think about paying your father's life debt?

Even if your father bears some indirect responsibility, it hardly warrants a life for a life, does it?

Shouldn't the one who most deserves to die be the criminal who directly caused the car accident?

"So you're saying her father only caused an indirect car accident while pursuing a criminal, and then failed to notice the victim or provide aid to that woman?"

"That's right."

"Then the crime hardly warrants a life for a life, does it?"

"Mm, indeed it doesn't."

"Moreover, if that woman's son had immediately gone to the nearby convenience store to call the police or an ambulance at the time, the woman could likely have been saved."

"So the cause of the woman's death was excessive blood loss, triggered by the external injuries from the car accident."

"Furthermore, the criminal who caused that woman's car accident is now living out the rest of his life in prison, safely serving a sentence of life imprisonment."

Hearing this, Kaguya Sigong was rendered even more speechless.

The true culprit behind her mother's car accident is living peacefully in prison, yet back then, the woman's son didn't target that criminal, but instead targeted the daughter of the police officer who indirectly caused her mother's car accident?
