Losing money is no small matter; it means there is a thief in the class.

Nowadays, the punishment for criminals is quite severe. Not only will they be expelled from school, but they may also face imprisonment.

The students in the class immediately looked towards Zhao Haitang, and the teacher who was giving the lecture on the stage also put down his handouts and came to Zhao Haitang's side.

"What's going on with this classmate?"

Zhao Haitang cried, "I originally had 10 yuan in the pocket of my schoolbag, but just now when I checked, I found that the money was missing. Teacher, this is my two-month expenses! If I don't have this 10 yuan, I won't be able to live."

Then he started crying.

The atmosphere in the classroom began to become solemn.

“Is there a thief in our class?”

Hearing this, everyone was shocked.

"No, I need to see if I'm missing anything. Fortunately, my fifty cents is not lost."

"My seven cents aren't lost either."

"I don't have any..."

The sounds in the classroom came one after another.

The teacher became more serious.

"Student, please think carefully about whether anyone has come to your place today."

Zhao Haitang shook her head. "No, this place is at the back, no one came. Today, only Shen Jiaojiao has been sitting next to me. She was still there even when I left."

Suddenly his eyes lit up, as if he had suddenly realized something, and he looked at Shen Jiaojiao with pain.

"It's you. You must have taken my money. You saw me put the money into my backpack yesterday. You are the only one who could have gotten it."

He quickly directed his criticism at Shen Jiaojiao, and his words were very affirmative.

It was as if he was 100% sure that the money was taken by Shen Jiaojiao.

Shen Jiaojiao sat there without any emotion, not afraid at all in the face of slander and defamation.

Are you losing your temper and starting to use some tricks on her?

He wanted to frame her for stealing money, and then use her reputation as a thief to get her expelled from school.

The calculations are really making a lot of noise!

The teacher coughed and urged, "Student, do you have any evidence?"

"No, but if you search her schoolbag you will know. The money must be in her schoolbag."

Zhao Haitang said anxiously, "Teacher, trust me, you will definitely find ten yuan in there if you search. Teacher, please search quickly! This money is really important to me, please help me."

Start pretending to be weak.

This tone of 100% certainty will confuse people's judgment and make those present subconsciously believe the weaker party.

"Could it be that Shen Jiaojiao is really a thief? No way, no way, she is the school beauty, she is so beautiful, she must not do such a dirty thing! Otherwise, I will be sad."

"But Zhao Haitang is very sure that the money is with Shen Jiaojiao, which means she is sure. I think the school beauty is definitely in trouble this time. It's over. I will never believe in love again."

"It's not just that you don't believe in love! Now I think Shen Jiaojiao is a bit annoying. How can such a good person do such a thing?"

Faced with so many people talking about Shen Jiaojiao at the same time, some people couldn't hold back.

With a bang, Chu Shuangshuang slapped the table, "Shut up, all of you. The matter has not yet come to an end, and you are already speculating and slandering. You are not men at all, and you have no sense of justice. If Shen Jiaojiao is not the one who stole the money, you must slap yourselves in the face and make amends. You are such a man, but you are imitating those gossipy women. You are really disgusting."

Chu Shuangshuang's temper immediately flared up, and the male students who were talking about it suddenly stopped talking.

Shen Jiaojiao recognized this girl. She was the female classmate who leaned on her desk yesterday and said that she was very pretty.

She looks cute, but turns out to have such a hot temper. It's really interesting.

"Okay, stop arguing."

The teacher tried to stop them, then looked at Shen Jiaojiao and said solemnly, "Student, since your deskmate suspects that you stole the money, let's check your bag. If you didn't take it, the teacher won't wrongly accuse you."

A hint of pride flashed across Zhao Haitang's eyes.

Go ahead and search, Shen Jiaojiao, you will definitely be expelled from school this time, you are doomed.

If you dare to investigate me, I will kick you out of school first.

Shen Jiaojiao stood up and politely said to the teacher, "Teacher, cooperating with the inspection is what we should do, but I cannot accept this approach. Just because I was wrongly accused for no reason, do I become the target of criticism?

Even if they don't find anything in my place, my reputation will definitely be worse than before. This has become a stain on me, so I will not accept the search unless Zhao Haitang apologizes to me."

Zhao Haitang sneered, "You are obviously a thief with a guilty conscience, Shen Jiaojiao. I will not apologize to you because you are a thief. I can now be 100% sure that the money is with you."

"Anyone with a mouth will brag. I think you are a murderer. Do you want to go to jail?"

Zhao Haitang felt that Shen Jiaojiao was very difficult to get along with, not just ordinary difficult to get along with.

He was too lazy to waste time talking to anyone, so he reached out to Shen Jiaojiao's desk keeper and tried to take her schoolbag.

Shen Jiaojiao was quick-witted and quick-handed. She picked up the pen and poked it down, directly stabbing the back of Zhao Haitang's hand.

"ah."

Zhao Haitang quickly withdrew his hand in pain and glared at Shen Jiaojiao, "If you dare to hurt me, I will report it to the police."

"Then go ahead, I'll sue you for stealing my things in public, let's see who is more polite."

Zhao Haitang stomped his feet in anger.

"Shen Jiaojiao, you...you are going too far. It was clearly you who took the money."

She had no idea what to do with Shen Jiaojiao and had to ask the teacher for help.

"Teacher, you really have to believe me. As long as you search Shen Jiaojiao's schoolbag, you will definitely find my 10 yuan. This money is really important to me. Teacher, please help me."

With tears in her eyes and her voice in a humble tone, she showed her weakness vividly.

"Teacher, if I have wronged Shen Jiaojiao, I can kneel down and apologize to her afterwards, but you must search her bag no matter what. The money must be there."

Shen Jiaojiao looked at Zhao Haitang calmly, "How about this, I won't make it difficult for you. If you have wronged me, not only do you have to kneel down and apologize to me, but you also have to pay me 10 yuan for mental damages, how about that?"

"Okay, let's do as you say. I have wronged you, and I will kneel down and pay you money. But if you really stole my money, you have to get out of school."

Zhao Haitang blurted it out without any hesitation.

She had this confidence because she was sure that the money was in Shen Jiaojiao's schoolbag.

The teacher couldn't stand it anymore and said in a businesslike manner, "Search everyone, and check each other's desk mates."

Zhao Haitang's eyes immediately lit up, and he stared at Shen Jiaojiao's schoolbag like a wolf.

Shen Jiaojiao pulled the schoolbag out from under the desk, paused for a moment, and did not give it directly to Zhao Haitang, as if she was hesitating.

Zhao Haitang sneered and tried to snatch it.

Shen Jiaojiao quickly dodged, "I think it's fairer to let the teacher search."

Zhao Haitang had no objection. It would be the same no matter who searched. The final result for you, Shen Jiaojiao, would definitely be being fired.

The teacher did not waste any time. He took Shen Jiaojiao's schoolbag and began to take out the things inside one by one.

Pencil case for stationery, notebooks, and various books.

Seeing that all the things in the backpacks were taken out and no money was found, some people started to feel happy and some started to feel disappointed.

Until there was only one book left in the schoolbag.

Under everyone's nervous gaze, the teacher slowly took out the book.

The atmosphere in the classroom began to freeze. Everyone was holding their breath and staring at the last textbook without blinking.

Almost at the same time when the teacher took the book out of the schoolbag, a banknote fell out of the book and landed on the table.

Everyone saw clearly that it was a 10-yuan unity note.

There was an immediate sound of people gasping in the classroom.

It turns out that Shen Jiaojiao is really a thief.
