Chen Xiaohua ignored Xiaoying's words and said to the principal seriously, "Principal, my mother works at the cashier's office of the Municipal Hospital. Could she have made a mistake?"
The principal glanced at Zhang Xiaoying again, his eyes filled with disdain. Just as he was about to speak, he heard Chen Xiaohua say, "My mother said Xiaoying went to the hospital for a cold. Is there anything wrong with that?"
Zhang Xiaoying's anxious and nervous expression paused, and her look towards Chen Xiaohua was suddenly filled with gratitude.
Wu Fei saw this scene and her eyes turned cold.
She knew Chen Xiaohua's true nature as a tea lady too well.
All the slander and defamation against Zhang Xiaoying came from her, but in front of Zhang Xiaoying, she acted like a good friend.
The principal thought for a moment and said, "Okay, there's nothing for you to do here, go to class..."
"Wait!" Wu Fei immediately said coldly, "Principal, it's best to wait until her mother comes to ask clearly before letting her go!"
Finally, she said, "Once the crime of fabricating rumors and slander is established, a case must be filed!"
As she spoke, she glanced at Chen Xiaohua.
Chen Xiaohua was immediately flustered when she saw this, and she stammered, "I, I, I didn't..."
Wu Fei sneered, "It's not up to you to decide whether it's true or not. It will only be final after the police have collected all the evidence and the court has tried it."
Chen Xiaohua's little face suddenly turned pale and she looked uneasy.
Seeing her expression, the principal's expression also became extremely stiff.
Damn, this is such a rumor!
If he is really prosecuted by the police, he, as the principal, will also be held accountable!
Chen Xiaohua immediately smiled at Zhang Xiaoying and said, "Xiaoying, my mother said you went to see a doctor for a cold. Why did you lie to everyone? No one would have misunderstood you if you had told them earlier."
Zhang Xiaoying frowned and was about to speak when Wu Fei spoke first, "Little girl, don't talk nonsense. Everything you say now will be recorded by the police. You'd better think it through before you speak!"
Chen Xiaohua was obviously frightened by Wu Fei's words. She looked at her, Ma Xiaoling and others in fear, closed her lips and dared not speak again.
Soon, Chen Xiaohua's mother rushed to the principal's office.
"Principal, what happened to Xiaohua?"
When she saw Zhang Xiaoying and a group of unfamiliar people in the office, Chen's mother's face looked a little unnatural.
Chen Xiaohua immediately burst into tears with a look of grievance on her face: "Mom, didn't you see Xiaoying in the hospital last week? Didn't you say she had a cold? Why do you make it seem like I'm lying..."
Ma Xiaoling, who had been silent the whole time, suddenly shouted, "Shut up!"
Mother Chen was startled and hurried to her daughter, half hugging her and said with an unhappy look on her face: "Who are you? Don't scare my daughter..."
A police ID was waved in front of her. Mother Chen's expression froze and her cheeks began to twitch. "Officer, officer, what happened?"
"Did you see Zhang Xiaoying in the hospital last week?" Ma Xiaoling said coldly, glaring at Chen Xiaohua with sharp eyes.
What Chen Xiaohua wanted to say to her mother was stuck in her mouth.
Chen's mother instinctively glanced at her daughter. Just as Chen Xiaohua was about to wink, Ma Xiaoling pulled her away and said, "Police interrogation, if you dare to do anything else, we can arrest you right now!"
Chen Xiaohua suddenly became stiff all over and didn't dare to look at Chen's mother anymore. She became much more obedient.
Chen's mother reacted immediately and said hurriedly: "Officer, just ask me whatever you want to ask. Don't embarrass a child..."
"Okay!" Ma Xiaoling immediately opened a recorder and said to her, "Tell me, which day last week did you see Zhang Xiaoying go to your hospital for treatment?"
Mother Chen looked at Chen Xiaohua again, but Wu Fei deliberately blocked her view.
She had no choice but to say, "Last, last Saturday afternoon..."
"What time in the afternoon?"
"I don't remember..."
Wu Fei suddenly asked, "Weren't you off last Saturday? Why are you working in the hospital?"
Mother Chen was stunned, her face extremely pale, and her expression suddenly became uneasy. She hurriedly said, "I switched shifts with my colleague that day..."
Ma Xiaoling immediately walked towards the principal's desk and looked at him: "Is it possible to just dial the same number I just used to get through to the Municipal Hospital?"
The principal nodded hurriedly: "Yes!"
Ma Xiaoling sneered at Chen's mother and said, "If you dare to lie in front of the police, there's no need to talk here. Just go to the police station..."
As he said that, he dialed the repeat button.
Mother Chen's face turned horrified, and she suddenly rushed over and held Ma Xiaoling's hand: "Officer, please don't, I'm telling the truth!"
"I didn't even see Zhang Xiaoying go to the hospital..."
"Oh, how could you be like this?" The principal, eager to shirk responsibility, immediately shouted, "Your nonsense will only make the school bear the blame!"
If it's just rumors spread among students, the worst that can happen is a warning or expulsion.
But as a principal, he actually believed the rumors and allowed the gossip to spread everywhere in the school. It is not as simple as expulsion.
Especially just now, he had already seen that these policemen were on Zhang Xiaoying's side!
"Why did you lie?" Ma Xiaoling said coldly.
Mother Chen looked at her daughter again in panic, but Chen Xiaohua avoided her gaze and turned her head away.
She gritted her teeth and said, "This Zhang Xiaoying bullies my daughter at school all day long. Of course I have to teach her a lesson!"
"The best way is to get her expelled from school and let her become a beggar on the streets!"
