Chapter 3022: They’d Just Sweep Things Under the Rug
She then swallowed the pill dry.
After taking the emergency contraception, Ning Shu locked up her bicycle and got on a bus headed to the county.
There was a police station in the town, but Ning Shu didn’t want to handle things there.
Chances were, they’d just sweep things under the rug, and nothing would come of it. In the end, she might even end up being forced to marry Li Bing, that rapist.
Besides, a case like this happening within their jurisdiction would be considered a scandal.
So Ning Shu had no choice but to appeal to a higher authority.
A rapist who had committed rape ended up not facing any punishment and even got a wife out of it?
How could there be such a great deal in the world?
Ning Shu endured the bumpy bus ride to the county police station and went to the designated area to file a report.
“I was raped and I want to report it,” Ning Shu said to the police with red-rimmed eyes.Since she was filing a rape report, it would need to be confirmed whether she had been raped.
A female police officer took Ning Shu to the examination room. Ning Shu took off her pants, lay on the table, and spread her legs.
The female officer conducted a detailed examination while writing her report.
She also collected secretions from inside to check for another person’s DNA.
“The hymen is freshly torn. Now we just need to wait for the test results. Have you taken emergency contraception?” the female officer asked Ning Shu with concern.
Ning Shu, her eyes red, nodded.
The female officer then examined the marks on Ning Shu’s body. Her back, wrists, and chest all had signs of injuries.
Ning Shu took out the underwear she had changed out of earlier. “This is the underwear I was wearing before. It has his bodily fluids on it. Would it be useful?”
“It is useful,” the female officer said as she placed the underwear into a sealed bag.
Perhaps because the officer was also a woman, she felt sympathy for Ning Shu and didn’t show the disdain that some other women might show.
In incidents involving men and women, it was always the woman who was blamed and looked down upon, even if she was the victim.
The female officer poured a cup of water for Ning Shu. “Please describe the events leading up to the incident in detail.”
Ning Shu’s hands trembled as she accepted the cup, her expression tense and fearful.
“Don’t be nervous. Just describe the events. That way, we can file the case,” the officer reassured her.
Ning Shu stammered as she recounted the events.
The officer asked, “Where are your family members?”
“They didn’t come. If my family knew I was filing a report, they would beat me to death.”
They believe that family scandals shouldn’t be exposed, especially not something like this. It was entirely possible that they really would beat her to death.
But if she didn’t fight for herself and allowed others to decide her fate, what future would await the entrustor?
The entrustor hadn’t fought back, so she ended up in a situation where she was completely helpless and ultimately drank two bottles of pesticide.
Ning Shu could silently punish Li Bing in many ways, but she wouldn’t let him off the hook so easily.
Li Bing was already a man in his thirties. If he went to prison for rape, he’d come out in his forties.
And another thing: Wang Ying herself was deeply, deeply affected by the fact that she had been raped.
The gossip and whispers from others made Wang Ying completely lose faith in herself. Why, why had this happened to her?
She had been defiled and the entire world was jeering at her.
Wang Ying eventually grew to loathe herself, which was why she had sought death so recklessly.
Her mind was fragile.
Family upbringing and the subtle influence of her environment shaped this outcome.
In this place which was so deeply patriarchal, there were even cases where wives who gave birth to three daughters and failed to have a son were driven out of their in-laws’ homes.
A woman’s value was repeatedly compressed to the bare minimum.
Sometimes, the only person who could hurt you was yourself.
