Asher pressed his lips together and said nothing.

“Alright then, tell me something else,” Jean shifted the topic without missing a beat. “Why are you so sure Thomas is the real suspect?”

Her gaze sharpened, and her expression gradually turned serious. “Did you see something that night? This is important. You have to tell me.” Jean was worried Asher wouldn’t tell the truth and couldn’t help pressing him again.

Asher gave her a faint glance, then said, “I saw-

“Thomas and that girl…”

Jean narrowed her eyes, the color in her gaze darkening. “You mean the plaintiff?”

Asher gave a small nod.

“But I didn’t see much either,” he added, his brows slightly furrowed. “I only saw them from a distance. They were standing really close, and it looked like there was some kind of struggle… I was afraid Thomas would notice me, so I only watched for a bit before hiding in a corner. At first, I thought they knew each other… I really don’t know exactly what happened…”

Asher let out a helpless sigh. “It wasn’t until that girl suddenly accused me of trying something inappropriate… that I realized what was actually going on.”

Jean was starting to piece things together.

A cold edge appeared in her eyes.

“So it was actually Thomas who made a move on her in the street.”

“That girl didn’t even know him. She didn’t get a clear look at his face. The first time she called the cops, it was a normal report—just trying to stand up for herself But after that, it’s obvious Thomas went to see her. Maybe he offered her something, or maybe he threatened her. Either way, he definitely pulled something to get her to change her statement and pin everything on you.”

Jean’s face was calm, but her tone was icy as she laid out her reasoning.

Impossible.

Thomas had clearly been on Tri Street, and yet in the footage, it was like he was invisible.

The footage must’ve been altered. It wasn’t complete anymore.

And with Thomas’s resources and connections, it wouldn’t have been hard for him to pull that off.

Asher nodded in agreement. “There’s no question the surveillance was tampered with.”

“I remember,” Jean’s eyes lit up like something had just clicked, “when that girl accused you, she also submitted a key piece of evidence–your student ID… What was that about? Did you actually leave it at the scene?” Her voice grew sharper as she spoke.

Asher shook his head and said helplessly, “Of course not.”

Then he frowned and added, “I didn’t even have it on me that day. I left it in my desk drawer at school.”
