Chapter 217: Chapter 217: I Believe in Her Chapter 217: Chapter 217: I Believe in Her “You think it was me too?” Shen Zhaozhao’s face grew cold, “Then let’s call the police! If it really was me, there should at least be my fingerprints on the violin.”
Meng Feifei snorted coldly, “Maybe you wiped off your fingerprints ahead of time?”
At this, Shen Zhaozhao truly became angry, her gaze toward the other carried a clear impatience and disgust, “Whether or not they’re there, only a police investigation will tell.”
Meng Feifei pursed her lips, “You make it sound so good now, as if predicting that the police won’t be able to find out anything.”
“How do you know the police definitely won’t find anything? Since you think that even the police can’t determine I broke it, how can you be so sure it was me? Just based on your words?”
“So now you can convict someone without evidence? You’re so capable, you might as well be the chief judge. No need for a trial team, you can decide the case by yourself and even help the country save on manpower resources.”
Meng Feifei, ridiculed by her, flushed and said, “Humph, sharp-tongued. Don’t think you can clear your suspicion just by suggesting we call the police.”
Just then, Ye Wei’an spoke up, “There’s no need to call the police, is there? We are all classmates; there’s no need to make such a fuss. Besides, this is Zhou Huaiyu’s house. He kindly invited us over, and it’d be somewhat impolite to have the police come and investigate his place.” She adopted an attitude as though thinking of Zhou Huaiyu, unbothered by her own disadvantage.
This made Shen Zhaozhao, who had suggested calling the police, seem as though she was intentionally causing trouble for the Zhou family.
Zhou Huaiyu, unexpectedly called out, looked between Shen Zhaozhao and Ye Wei’an, and ultimately chose to trust Shen Zhaozhao by saying, “It’s okay, if you need to call the police, then do so. Don’t worry about me. After all, the violin was damaged in my house. If we can’t find out who did it, I would feel uneasy, so let’s just call the police.”
Ye Wei’an’s expression became stiff, then she smiled and said, “Really, there’s no need. While this violin holds special significance for me, fortunately, it’s only a broken string. Just replacing the string will do; let’s drop the matter! It’s just that I won’t be able to perform for everyone today.”
The others comforted her, “No worries, we can listen to your performance another time.”
“Weian is so generous. If it were me, I would definitely investigate till the end.”
“Some people are just petty, unfit to be shown in public.” It was clear who was being talked about.
Zhou Huaiyu belatedly said to Sheng Chuyi, “Why do I feel like Beauty Ye’s speech is strange today?” There was a feeling he couldn’t quite describe; she didn’t use to talk in the past.
Sheng Chuyi looked at him like he was a fool, “Since you’re the villa’s owner, you should be the one to call the police!”
“Really calling them? Aren’t you afraid it really was Zhaozhao who did it?” They say that a woman’s jealousy can be scary. No matter who snapped the string today, it all falls within these three words.
“No chance!” Sheng Chuyi looked toward Shen Zhaozhao and said, “I believe her!”
“Fine! Then I’m really calling,” Zhou Huaiyu took out his phone in front of everyone and called the police.
Soon, the police arrived, learned about the incident, and first checked the surveillance. Then they took statements from Shen Zhaozhao and the other two, and finally collected fingerprints from the violin case and body.
Before leaving, they said to Shen Zhaozhao and the others, “We should have the results in about two or three days, and we will need to talk with you again then.”
