Chapter 244

The letters filled over a hundred pages, cach detailing the writer’s desire to die or kill.

“Back then, victims were the weak and vulnerable. After rumors spread about abusive families, many left letters at the crime scene. Later, those named in the letters were killed, and the pile grew.”

“The internet wasn’t widespread then, but many saw Zane as a hero. These letters were accidentally obtained from a lawyer?

“Zane, who had initially confessed, begged not to make them public–it would ruin lives.”

“The letters sought the deaths of family members. Exposing them meant legal consequences and societal judgment.”

“Most senders wanted to protect children, mothers, or grandparents. Their imprisonment would only worsen the tragedy.”

“Zane said he didn’t want to live anyway. He’d take the blame for all the deaths.”

That was their first meeting. Sunlight highlighted his pale face and hollow eyes–the look that made Cher decide to help him.

She’d never followed rules. As a kid, she refused piano lessons. As an adult, she became a judge, not a socialite. She couldn’t just obey the law blindly.

Quinlyn held those letters, feeling sad and worried, but she was not lost.

In the past, she might not have understood what to distinguish, but after everything she experienced, she grasped what Curtis meant by the gray areas of humanity.

Good or bad depended on perspective. Her stance stayed firm. “Let’s clear Zane’s name.”

Cher smiled softly, feeling relieved. She knew she hadn’t misjudged her. Bringing out these letters was to help Quinlyn investigate better.

Surveillance showed no suspicious figures around Zane. He was always alone.

Quinlyn, who had no clue, looked at the letter and suddenly had an idea. She opened the social platform and entered the name of ‘Zane.’

A few scattered news articles popped up, all about his bizarre marriage to Cher and the killer’s past along with critiques.
