Chapter 2883 Shifting Responsibility
The coach quickly turned around and said to Shi Ye, "We're done talking."
Shino nodded. "In that case, we'll leave the remaining legal matters entirely to the lawyers. We should head back now."
Those who need to sign, do so; after that, it's no longer their concern.
As he was about to turn and leave, Tokino noticed Coach Viktor on the other side, who was urgently saying something to John.
John's face was filled with shock and panic, and his eyes showed a sense of helplessness.
Seeing that Shino was about to leave, John couldn't help but raise his voice and shout, as if he wanted to make one last attempt.
But Shino didn't stop or look back; he simply left with Xia Lin.
After he came out, he explained to Charlene, "I did not agree to John's demands for peace."
However, the lawyer will pursue compensation.
However, we may never see their apology.
Charlene shook her head and said with a smile, "It doesn't matter, as long as they are punished."
She didn't care about the rest, nor did she care about their belated apologies.
After all, even if they repent now, what difference will it make?
Does that erase their initial ill intentions and malicious slander?
John and Lee Ji-eun are two scoundrels, cut from the same cloth, and neither of them are good people.
Their actions are despicable and unforgivable!
Tokino nodded. "Yes, the police will release the investigation results later."
They will receive the punishment they deserve.
Charlene's eyes lit up, and a look of satisfaction appeared on her face.
She said sincerely, "That's good. That way, no one will wrong you or say anything bad about you in the future."
Upon hearing this, Shi Ye's expression shifted slightly. He gazed at her with his deep eyes and asked softly, "Is that all you care about?"
Without thinking, Charlene blurted out, "Of course."
They insulted you online, saying incredibly nasty things; some of their comments were downright outrageous.
Shino's eyes grew increasingly deep, his gaze filled with complex and unfathomable emotions.
The coach, watching the interaction between the two, couldn't help but smile helplessly.
This little girl is absolutely smitten with Shi Ye.
The intense emotion in her eyes was almost overflowing.
Unfortunately, her beloved race car driver was a blockhead, completely oblivious to the girl's feelings.
The little girl is really pitiful.
The coach, unable to bear it any longer, patted Shi Ye on the shoulder and said, "Send him back to school! I'm going back to the club first."
As for the online news, you don't need to worry about it; the public relations department will handle it.
John's fans were yelling like mad dogs, but they probably won't be able to keep up the noise for long!
"understood."
Shi Ye nodded in agreement and drove Xia Lin back to school.
During the journey, the carriage was silent. Charlene looked down at her phone, the screen still filled with trending topics about John.
The topic of John being taken away by the police remains a hot one.
Several hours have passed since the incident, and neither the police nor John's club have released any official statements.
Netizens are buzzing with discussion, eagerly awaiting further developments in this matter.
John's fans are even more anxious.
Some, even a bit frantic, went to great lengths in the comments section to defend John's innocence.
However, many people knew the truth and replied, "Just wait and see, why are you jumping around like this?"
……
Meanwhile, things were getting a bit chaotic at the police station.
When Tokino left, Coach Vicki told John that Tokino had no intention of settling the matter and that the other party had hired a highly capable and ruthless lawyer to handle it.
Coach Vic had to admit, "Given the current situation, you have to bear the corresponding legal responsibility."
Upon hearing these words, John's face instantly turned extremely ugly.
He was acutely aware that once this matter became public, his career would be ruined, and there would be no place for him in the racing world afterward.
In his emotional outburst, he almost blurted out, "No, the club has to cover for me."
Otherwise, I'll be finished.
Coach Vicki was even more furious when he saw him like this, and he scolded him without any politeness, "Now you know how serious the consequences are?"
When you made plans and acted impulsively before, why didn't you use your brain at all?
Is it worth risking your entire future for a woman like Lee Ji-eun?
He took a deep breath and further pointed out, "In this incident, you are not only a participant, but also the main planner."
Then you must face the consequences of your actions.
Several of my colleagues were summoned to the police station early in the morning, and they all looked rather grim.
Upon hearing the coach's words, the group immediately panicked and quickly distanced themselves from the situation, fearing they might be mistaken for accomplices.
"Coach, John arranged everything from beginning to end. We were just following orders."
When he came to us, he only asked us to help move the tires next to the guardrail, without mentioning what he wanted to do or any other intentions.
How could we have imagined that he harbored malicious intentions and wanted to sabotage the racetrack?
"That's right. He also told us at the time that he felt the track design was unreasonable, the turns were too sharp, and there were safety hazards. He said that adjusting the tire position was to make the track safer."
When we heard it was for safety reasons, we believed it without giving it much thought.
We were all shocked and completely stunned when this happened. We were truly unaware of it.
“Officer, we can all testify to each other that we really had no idea about this conspiracy.”
"That's right, if we had known earlier, we would never have gotten involved, much less committed such a crime!!!"
"Yes, yes, we are all public figures, and we are all legally aware. We would never do anything that violates the law or morality."
John's expression turned noticeably more unpleasant upon hearing this.
In fact, although he did not explicitly state the nature of the matter, he did pay everyone privately.
Since they accepted the money, they couldn't possibly be completely unaware of the purpose behind it.
But now, they're all playing dumb, shifting blame and feigning innocence, trying to shirk all responsibility.
However, the matter was handled discreetly at the time, and they were given cash without leaving any clear evidence.
Now, this has become their best excuse.
John is likely to find himself unable to defend himself.
The group argued endlessly, but finally reached a consensus: it was all Lee Ji-eun and John's responsibility; they were the masterminds behind the whole thing.
Everyone else is just a pawn being used.
