Mu Huan’s head started pounding in pain as she stared at her phone, where it displayed “call ended.”
While she was away on the phone, her friends, Wu Xingye and Li Meng, had gone through watching the rest of the security footage from that day. They failed to find any clues, though.
It infuriated the guy so much, he could not resist thumping his fist on the keyboard!
And that thump got the image on the screen all scrambled up for a good while before it finally got stuck on a particular scene.
It was this very scene that got Mu Huan rushing over at once after she put her phone away and looked over. “Quick, zoom in on this!”
“What’s wrong” Her friends instantly went into alert mode.
“See if this car is facing Professor Wang’s office!” requested the girl as she pointed to a white car at the corner of the screen.
He immediately magnified the image. The angle was indeed just right.
“Let’s go and get our hands on that car’s dashcam!” said Mu Huan as she headed outside.
With much difficulty, she finally got a hold of that car’s dashcam and found a clue in it!
That day when they had their exams, a black-clothed man in a cap was found entering Professor Wang’s office past 10 PM and leaving some ten minutes later before returning to the office again an hour later.
Based on that timing, Mu Huan and Wu Xingye looked through the security footage around their campus again. From footage belonging to a beverage shop near their school, she found Li Ze taking something from the black-clothed man before he headed to a corner and, not long after, handed that item back to the black-clothed man. Despite the image not being very clear due to its far distance and it being at night, one could still tell that it was the exam papers.
She heaved a sigh of relief at that. With these pieces of evidence, I’ll be able to prove my innocence!
She then made short clips of these footages and went to look for the dean.
After looking through these clips, the dean could not help thinking, She’s well deserving and has the brains to be the top scholar of the school, indeed. Well, the person who’s able to delete the school’s security footage is also one capable person. He then asked, “Have you found out who framed you?”
“Long Feiting!”
The dean: “…”
Long Feiting is an outstanding student, why would he do such a thing?
He kept mum for a good while. “These footages are insufficient to prove your innocence. Even though the black-clothed person did enter Professor Wang’s office and had contact with Li Ze, there’s no conclusive proof that the item they took was the exam paper. It might be something else that they’re stealing.”
Mu Huan: “…!”
If this isn’t proof, then what is? No matter how careless Li Ze might be, he will never redo those papers in front of others or under surveillance to leave any witnesses or security footage behind for me!
“Mu Huan, if you insist on believing that it’s Long Feiting who has framed you, then you’ll need to get him to admit and confess his mistake so that your disciplinary punishment can be canceled.”
Despite the dean’s reluctance to destroy her future since she was a model student, the evidence she had was not conclusive enough to deem Long Feiting as the mastermind. Since the matter involved another outstanding student, she had to go look him up herself if she wanted to resolve it.
It would have to be that chap’s doing in order for the school to cancel her disciplinary actions.
Mu Huan: “…!!!”
There’s no way he will admit to his doing when he’s out to frame me!
“Dean…” She still wanted to say something in her defense, but the dean requested for her to leave.
“I still have work to do, so please leave.”
At that point, she realized that the dean might have reacted that way because he did not want to malign the innocent.
So, she would have to produce more convincing evidence.
