Wise Governor

At that moment, Chen Lin'er emerged from the shadows.

Su Bin inquired, "How did Wang Nian end up confessing?"

Chen Lin'er revised the details and disclosed them.

"I knew that to gather evidence of his crimes, I had to first disorient Wang Nian."

"So, I pretended to be in a relationship with him and caught him off guard with a non-fatal stab."

"My intention was to gain control and force him to document his actions."

"Once he had written it all down, I planned to expose his crimes to the authorities, but he unexpectedly broke free and tried to strangle me. I had no option but to defend myself with a knife."

"During the struggle, he ended up being fatally stabbed."

"I took his life to preserve my own. If I hadn't, I would have been the one to perish."

"Governor, it was purely an act of self-defense. I never intended to purposefully take a life!"

"Before, I confessed. I felt defenseless, and my spirit was like ashes."
