As for Frank Spence, he was at the police station at the ti, frowning deeply.
Even now, he still couldn’t believe that Ivy Kensington was the murderer, but the evidence they had preserved, as well as the key eyewitness testimony, all pointed to Ivy Kensington, and it had reached a point of no return!
Frank took out a pack of cigarettes, shook it in his palm, and was about to take one out when—
"Captain Spence, soone is here to confess!"
What?
Frank’s hand holding the pack of cigarettes twitched, and almost instinctively, he knew this person was significant. He didn’t bother to light a cigarette and got up, hurrying out quickly.
And at that mont, at the execution site.
Today, there were five people scheduled for execution by firing squad.
Among them, Ivy Kensington was the fifth, just at the end of the line.
The first four prisoners were brought up, all pressed down onto their knees, trembling with fear.
"Comnce the execution!"
With the judge’s order, the judicial police officers of the People’s Court stepped forward, the crisp sound of guns loading echoed, and almost in the blink of an eye, the first prisoner collapsed to the ground with no signs of life.
Sharon Langley’s face turned pale; she lacked the courage to keep watching!
Her eyelashes trembled wildly, and her heart was about to leap out of her chest.
To minimize the prisoners’ suffering, the officers worked quickly, and Ivy Kensington’s turn ca soon enough.
She was also forced onto her knees, her small face as pale as a sheet.
Only at this mont did she finally realize she was afraid, but what could she do? It was a path she had chosen herself.
As the cold muzzle pressed against the back of her head, Ivy’s body instinctively shuddered. She squeezed her eyes shut tightly.
But just then—
"Wait, there’s an error in the evidence, request to reopen the investigation!"
Frank Spence’s voice shouted from afar.
However, it was ultimately a mont too late; the officer’s finger had already pressed down on the trigger!
"Click—"
The sharp sound rang out, and everyone’s nerves were on edge!
At this crucial mont, who would have thought a projectile flew in from above, striking the officer’s wrist holding the gun, causing the bullet’s trajectory to veer off course.
"Squeak—"
The bullet veered, grazing past Ivy Kensington’s ear and heading elsewhere, a fierce shower of sparks erupted as it embedded into the ground.
Ivy’s heart raced, and as the bullet whisked past, her ear was scorched, bleeding profusely...
"Ivy!"
Sharon scread, covering her mouth, her voice torn with emotion.
It scared her to death! It scared her to death!
Just a little more, and that bullet would have hit dead center on Ivy Kensington’s forehead.
Without realizing it, Ivy broke into a cold sweat, her back soaked from perspiration! The sweat on her forehead rolled continuously downward...
Instinctively, she glanced upward.
There had indeed been sothing that shot over just now; without it, no one could have saved her.
So, who on earth was helping her just now?
Ivy’s thoughts drifted away unconsciously.
And at this ti, Frank had already chased in, sweating profusely, with none other than Mrs. Xie behind him!
Mrs. Xie’s weathered face was streaked with tears. Seeing Ivy kneeling on the ground, she burst into tears, then rushed to her side.
"I’m sorry, child... I shouldn’t have let you take the bla for !"
Mrs. Xie was trembling with sobs, and Ivy’s eyes widened in surprise and anxiety, "Mrs. Xie, what are you saying!"
Mrs. Xie wiped her tears clean and said resolutely, "Good child, I was montarily confused, thinking I could escape the final judgnt, only to realize that what you can’t escape is the condemnation in your own heart!"
