Chapter 321: The Inescapable Charge

The lives of ordinary people and the lives of the aristocracy are naturally completely different.

At first, Gao Shan Junhiko, as an ordinary person, was able to clearly distinguish the difference between ordinary people and the aristocracy.

With a young child's mind not yet fully developed, experiencing treatment that didn't match his own circumstances, his thoughts naturally went completely off the rails.

Subconsciously wanting to cut ties with his past ordinary self, he inevitably threw the matter of his mother's car accident to the back of his mind.

Actually, such a thing is quite normal.

After all, people die, but life still has to go on.

Kaguya Sigong didn't say these words directly, but almost everyone present understood.

"The gaudy world dazzles the eye."

"Everyone hopes to live a life without hard labor; even my lord cannot resist this temptation, let alone a child."

Ren Amamiya understood Gao Shan Junhiko at that time very well.

If he had been able to live an easy and carefree life as a child, perhaps his personality now would have become different.

For a child who was only seven years old twenty years ago, not having this resistance is normal.

"It's just that, clearly knowing who the person truly responsible for killing his mother was, he still shifted the main responsibility — such methods are indeed not quite appropriate."

Kaguya Sigong also nodded slightly.

Such methods aren't just not quite appropriate, they're considerably inappropriate.

Clearly shouting that he wanted to avenge his mother, yet what he did was displace his anger, rather than take revenge on the true culprit.

If Gao Shan Junhiko had taken revenge on the criminal still locked up in prison, she would still acknowledge that he truly wanted revenge.

But now, such behavior is merely displacing his anger onto a police officer who was pursuing the criminal.

And no matter how great this police officer's responsibility was, it was only secondary; in fact, it was this police officer who captured the criminal who caused Gao Shan Junhiko's mother's car accident.

Even so, he was still treated as the true culprit who caused his mother's death.

Such behavior is indeed too inappropriate.

"Hayasaka-san, has the damning footage been filmed?"

"It's already completed."

Hayasaka Ai had already returned to Kaguya Sigong's side at this moment.

"The footage has been confirmed — it indeed captured that the lemon tea Young Lady Suzuki drank was poisoned with the deadly toxin sodium hydroxide by the groom, Gao Shan Junhiko."

"Beyond doubt, this is premeditated murder."

Suzuki Sonoko also stood up at this moment, very timely. (cabj)

"Hmph! He must have taken advantage of my coming to attend Teacher Matsumoto's wedding to retaliate against our Suzuki zaibatsu. It seems the Gao Shan zaibatsu is truly very dissatisfied with our former cooperation."

"Hayasaka, go call the police officers attending the wedding outside the door."

"I want to ask them what kind of behavior it is for a groom to poison and murder me at his own wedding."

"Yes, Young Lady Suzuki."

Hayasaka Ai smiled lightly and bowed, then went to open the door and let in the people outside who had long been unable to wait.

Beyond doubt, this is a very deliberate framing.

But not a single person present felt any unease or guilt.

Only contempt for a criminal who had attempted murder.

"Click—!"

The main door opened, and the people outside nearly poured in directly.

"Police Superintendent Matsumoto, may I ask why the groom would have the idea of premeditatedly murdering Young Lady Suzuki?"

Hayasaka Ai's single sentence instantly froze the crowded state at the door.

Premeditated… murder!?

Those friends of the groom all widened their eyes.

This charge really is a bit too big.

And the murder target was still the young lady of the Suzuki zaibatsu.

In an instant, those who had just been the groom's friends took several steps back.

Don't joke around — friends are friends when everyone's drinking together.

But now this is premeditated murder; who is friends with a criminal?

"Premeditated… murder!?"

Matsumoto Kiyonaga's gaze sharpened, and he quickly looked inside the room.

In an instant, he locked onto his daughter — mm, sitting in a chair resting, perfectly healthy.

He let out a slight breath of relief.

His eyes swept over Gao Shan Junhiko lying on the floor, and his expression became very ugly.

He certainly didn't believe Gao Shan Junhiko had made a move against the second young lady of the Suzuki zaibatsu; this man was absolutely targeting him, and this man's means of revenge were absolutely aimed at his daughter.

But Matsumoto Kiyonaga swept his eyes over the situation inside the room and was instantly reassured considerably.

His eyes saw the second young lady Suzuki standing over there, with a surface-level anger still on her face.

Matsumoto Kiyonaga knew this should be the action plan between his daughter and the second young lady of the Suzuki zaibatsu.

He understood in his heart, so he didn't go disturb this arrangement.

"Murder!?"

"That man actually did something so crazy."

Matsumoto Kiyonaga's expression instantly turned terrifyingly dark.

"I didn't expect this man to actually exploit my daughter's feelings, and even exploit my daughter's relationship with Young Lady Suzuki, to carry out criminal acts targeting Young Lady Suzuki."

"Megure!"

"Here!"

Megure Jūsuke, standing behind him, immediately straightened up.

"Cuff that bastard on the ground who dared to attempt the premeditated murder of Miss Suzuki, and send him straight back to the Metropolitan Police Department for investigation."

"Also, notify the Gao Shan zaibatsu and the Suzuki zaibatsu — both of them need to come down to the Metropolitan Police Department!"

"Yes, sir!"

Megure Jūsuke glanced at Gao Shan Toshihiko lying on the ground; he didn't really think this man had the nerve to make a move on the second young lady of the Suzuki family.

But it was quite possible he'd make a move on Police Superintendent Matsumoto's daughter.

This wedding probably couldn't be confirmed whether the second young lady of the Suzuki family would attend, but the bride, as the female lead of this wedding, would definitely attend.

So, Gao Shan Toshihiko's making a move on Police Superintendent Matsumoto's daughter was clearly more likely.

But now this was going to pin down Gao Shan Toshihiko's attempted murder of the second young lady of the Suzuki family.

Although he had guessed the facts, Megure Jūsuke didn't think Gao Shan Toshihiko was innocent.

If he hadn't truly committed an act of premeditated murder, today's setup probably wouldn't have happened.

Megure Jūsuke walked right over, pulled out handcuffs from behind his back, and cuffed Gao Shan Toshihiko, who was still in the middle of a dream.
