The young man's unyielding demeanor warmed Jiang Xi's heart, and the memory...
Liu Yun's face turned pale for a moment, as if she was shocked by the fact that Lu Hao stood up, but she quickly recovered and said, "Then let's search together."
"Start with me." She returned to her seat and quickly took out her schoolbag and textbooks from her pocket until it was empty. Then she opened all the secret pockets of her schoolbag one by one and shook the bottom. "Is that it? You all saw it. If we follow the suspicion, everyone in the class is a suspect. Anyone who doesn't want to be searched is guilty!"
The little girl is quite smart.
Jiang Xi is now very sure that the necklace must be in his schoolbag or pocket, and it must be in a shallow layer, the kind that will come out if he shakes it.
Think about it, I was lying on the desk the whole day today, and only left for the first half of the physical education class. This was the only opportunity for the other party to frame me.
Just as he was thinking about it, Liu Yun rushed over. No one expected that she would be so rough, like a bullfight. Jiang Xi staggered and narrowly avoided falling to the ground. Lu Hao reached out to help her, but she dodged it.
With a "crash", the schoolbag and textbooks fell to the ground.
"You--" Sun Ting was about to scold, but she found that the whole class's eyes were on the ground.
Amidst the miscellaneous pile of school bags and textbooks, a bright sparkle caught everyone's eyes - it was the necklace that Chen Jing had just lost.
"Wow, big news."
Some classmates have already secretly taken out their mobile phones to record it.
The first person Jiang Xi looked at was Lu Hao.
She didn't know why, but at this moment, what she wanted to know most was the boy's reaction - perhaps first love is always a little different.
But she was disappointed.
Lu Hao looked at the ground. The boy's narrow single eyelids twitched, his pupils shrank slightly, and he looked at a mixture of astonishment, shock, disbelief, and bewilderment, so that he could only stare blankly at the ground.
Lu Hao was unwilling to believe that the girl he liked was a thief, but the necklace was there intact and there was no room for mistake.
A high school student with shallow and simple life experience would rarely suspect that his peers had sinister intentions to frame him. Compared to this person stealing, being framed seems even more bizarre.
"Jiang, Jiang Xi, I wouldn't steal."
Lu Hao forced himself to say one more sentence, but the trembling voice made others see the young man's wavering mood.
Jiang Xi sighed. She hadn't sighed in many years.
She didn't sigh when she killed someone; she didn't sigh when she escaped; but at this moment, she felt that something solid and firm in her heart was fading away bit by bit. The feeling was so subtle that she couldn't help but sigh.
In this situation, asking someone to give you 100% trust is really asking for too much.
Jiang Xi ignored the slight disappointment in his heart, looked at Liu Yun's smugness and Chen Jing's astonishment, and reached into his trouser pocket and took out... a fruit 6.
"Then call the police."
She dialed the number quickly and put the receiver on speakerphone. "For a minor case like this, just report it to the police. Our school corridors are full of surveillance cameras, so anyone sneaking back in should be visible. Besides, anyone who handled this necklace would probably have fingerprints on them. We can check and find out."
"Oh, by the way, there's also a lie detector. The police are really good. They can figure out who's behind this with just one check."
Liu Yun was frightened by Jiang Xi's rude behavior of calling the police without saying a word, and she couldn't hide the panic in her eyes and eyebrows.
"Call the police? That's not good, right? The school leaders won't allow it."
Jiang Xi shrugged. "What's wrong with that? Catching thieves is the police's responsibility."
Jiang Xi's frank behavior immediately made people doubt the authenticity of the theft. On the contrary, Liu Yun's panic and shortness of breath became increasingly unconcealable. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that there was something fishy going on.
The sound of music came from the receiver, and Liu Yun suddenly rushed over for some reason, trying to snatch Jiang Xi's phone.
Jiang Xi was prepared and dodged sideways, but Liu Yun swung her hand too hard and instead of catching Jiang Xi's phone, she knocked her glasses off her nose.
“Snap—”
The black-framed glasses that had been with Jiang Xi for half a month suddenly fell to the ground and broke.
Jiang Xi's extremely delicate and beautiful facial features were suddenly exposed to everyone without any obstruction. Her skin was as white as the purest first snow on the top of the sacred mountain, without a single pore. Her nose was straight and her pink lips were slightly pouting. But all of these were not as good as the pair of eyes covered by heavy bangs. It was as if God had painted them with a dot-painting brush. The purest ink in the world could not depict such transparency, depth, mystery and coldness.
Jiang Xi...is she so beautiful?
The students in Class 1 hadn't seen Jiang Xi's real face for about half a month. After being abducted for more than ten days, Jiang Xi had been wearing a pair of black-framed glasses since he came back, and he didn't interact closely with anyone, so after a while, they all accepted this fact.
After all, the facial features... haven't changed, just the skin has become a little whiter.
A white complexion can hide three flaws. In this information age where everyone has access to the Internet, most men and women know this.
Jiang Xi pinched her nose bridge with a headache. How could she forget that there was no need to be polite with barbarians?
He couldn't wear black-framed glasses. Seeing that the classmates around him accepted the fact calmly, Jiang Xi decided not to embarrass himself anymore. After wearing black-framed glasses for a long time, red marks were left on the bridge of his nose, which was not very comfortable.
She didn't know that if it weren't for the fact that this taro hair masked most of the spiritual energy, most of the classmates would probably have the same guess because of the difference between before and after -
Could it be that Jiang Xi was not kidnapped during the ten days he was missing, but secretly went to South Korea?
However, anyone with a little common sense knows that recovery from plastic surgery is always very slow, especially swelling, which will not disappear in more than 20 days.
So even if someone complains in their heart, they will deny it immediately.
On the contrary, Liu Yun—
Her clumsy yet intense performance later on was obvious to all. Since a student from Class 1 was able to get into a key class, besides being simple-minded, she must also be very smart. She had also watched several palace fighting dramas and immediately had some guesses in her mind.
The teacher rushed over and stopped Jiang Xi from calling the police. As a school leader, no leader would want to hear such sensational news about students framing others in their school. He tried to appease Jiang Xi and even offered to waive all tuition and miscellaneous fees for high school.
Jiang Xi, being an adult, naturally wouldn't confront the school. He decided to quit while he was ahead and simply put forward three conditions: 1. He had to watch the entire class's surveillance footage to completely clear himself of suspicion. 2. Liu Yun had to be expelled from the class and given a serious warning. 3. He had to apologize to her in front of the entire school.
Jiang Xi's move seemed to let Liu Yun off the hook, allowing her to avoid spending a few days at the police station. However, the long-term psychological torture that followed was truly like grinding flesh with a soft knife without drawing blood.
