“Oh my, how did a murder happen here?” a voice called from beyond the crowd.

People quickly stepped aside, making way for Trent Baxter, the third–generation heir of the Baxters from Centara Residence. 

Trent surveyed the bodies on the ground with a serious expression, then looked over at Karina, Duncan, and Jeb, who were kneeling nearby. 

“Aren’t these Mr. and Ms. Fiori? Why are you on your knees?” 

Before they could answer, Elliott cut in coldly. “Trent, shouldn’t you be focusing on your studies in law and painting instead of meddling here?” 

Trent shot him a glance. I’m not meddling. I’m here to investigate and assess the situation from a legal perspective.” 

The Fioris perked up, addressing Trent eagerly. “Mr. Trent, you’re studying law–can you appropriate punishment for murder? Isn’t it death?”

Trent answered firmly, “An eye for an eye. A murderer must pay with their life. Without punishment, society would crumble.” 

Skylar’s eyes lit up with hope upon hearing that, “Mr. Trent, what about this Robin who killed four of my bodyguards and attacked my children? What should happen to him?” 

Eithan, who had been watching in silence, nodded at Trent in acknowledgment. 

Despite rarely crossing paths, Eithan recognized that Trent, as the grandson of Lord Centara, held significant status. 

Known for his passion for law and oil painting. Trent usually steered clear of the noble families‘ intrigues, particularly on days like this. 

His presence here was unusual. 

“Mr. Trent, Eithan said, meeting Trent’s gaze. “Your legal knowledge is highly respected. So, what do you suggest we do today?” 

Trent furrowed his brows, glancing again over the bodies and the tense crowd. “Well, today… 

“Murder is already established, but it’s important to recognize that legally, there are different types of homicide, Trent began. 

“In law, there’s intentional murder, manslaughter, and self–defense.” 

Skylar, Eithan, and Zayn all looked to Trent, anticipating his expert judgment. 

Zayn stepped forward, addressing him, “Mr. Trent, from your legal perspective, what kind of punishment should Robin face for today’s actions?” 

Trent looked over at Robin, but Elliott cut in angrily, “Trent, are you bored or something? Why are you

Trent shook his head calmly. “Mr. Elliott, don’t get worked up. I’m only here to provide an impartial judgment on what happened today. 

“Let’s discuss this reasonably instead of escalating the conflict. 

“If we keep arguing, it’ll just make things worse. Is that really what you want?” 

“This must be Mr. Ramsey.” He then turned to Robin, his gaze meeting Robin’s cold, stern face, and instinctively took a step back. 

“Mr. Ramsey, I’m just evaluating the situation objectively, not taking sides, so no need to get rough with

“Do I seem like the type to get involved for no reason?” 

Elliott pushed him away, grumbling, “Beat it! Mr. Ramsey doesn’t have time for you.” 

Skylar interjected coldly, “Mr. Elliott, let Mr. Trent speak, will you?” 

Trent pushed Elliott’s hand off and replied, “Elliott, can’t you think for a moment? 

“Let’s stop arguing blindly and handle this with some legal awareness, alright?” 

With that, Trent continued, “Intentional murder demands a life for a life–there’s no leeway under the law. 

“For manslaughter, however, the punishment depends on the severity of the circumstances and the entire chain of events. 

“There’s also a type of killing that carries no legal or criminal liability: self–defense, Trent added. 

Elliott eyed him coldly, “So, what kind of killing do you think Mr. Ramsey committed today?” 

Trent shook his head, I only know the outcome, not the motive or circumstances. To determine the nature of Mr. Ramsey’s actions, we’ll need to review the surveillance footage.” 

Zayn nodded in agreement, “Yes, let’s get the footage from the second floor immediately.” 

Elliott glanced at Robin, looking for his approval. 

Robin replied indifferently, “Let them bring it.”

Trent held up a USB drive. “I already brought the footage with me.” 

He turned to Elliott, “However, I should warn you, my bodyguards aren’t exactly… mild–mannered, and sometimes I can’t control them.” 

Elliott frowned, “What does that have to do with me?”
