Zhao Yan and Sun Erniu looked nervous, after all, Zhang Man was on Qiao Lin's side, and they were afraid that she would talk nonsense and completely smear their side.
Su Tang watched this scene with great interest. What would she choose? Would she continue to rely on Qiao Lin as her backer, or...?
Zhang Man pushed up her thick black-rimmed glasses, revealing eyes behind the lenses that made it impossible to discern her emotions.
"Reporting, Instructor."
“I was standing right next to it the whole time, so I saw everything that just happened.”
Upon hearing this, Qiao Lin and Li Yue revealed a smug look on their faces. Qiao Lin even glanced at Zhao Yan provocatively, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but turn up.
Zhang Man paused, organized her thoughts, and continued, "The incident did indeed begin when Sun Erniu accidentally knocked over Qiao Lin's washbasin, which was placed next to her bed, and spilled water all over Qiao Lin."
Sun Erniu's face immediately fell, and Zhao Yan's brows furrowed tightly.
Qiao Lin's mouth was stretched to her ears in a wide grin.
However, Zhang Man changed the subject.
"However, Sun Erniu immediately apologized, saying it was an accident. But Qiao Lin and Li Yue wouldn't let it go, saying that Sun Erniu did it on purpose and wanted to hurt her. Then... Qiao Lin rushed up and slapped Sun Erniu first."
"Whoosh—"
These words shocked everyone present!
Qiao Lin's smug expression froze instantly, replaced by shock and disbelief. She abruptly turned her head, staring intently at Zhang Man, her eyes practically spitting fire: "Zhang Man! You... what nonsense are you spouting!"
Li Yue was also dumbfounded, and stammered as she pointed at Zhang Man: "You...you...Instructor, don't listen to her, she's lying!"
Zhao Yan and Sun Erniu were completely taken aback. They hadn't expected that this seemingly quiet member of the "enemy camp" would give testimony that was favorable to them.
Zhang Ruobing ignored their shouts, stared at Zhang Man, and coldly asked, "And then?"
Zhang Man seemed oblivious to Qiao Lin's murderous glare and continued speaking in that emotionless tone:
"After being hit, Sun Erniu was furious and broke free, trying to fight back. Zhao Yan tried to separate them the whole time, but the scene was too chaotic. Li Yue kept fanning the flames, shouting things like, 'Hit her, Qiao Lin, don't be afraid, there are more of us,' and even grabbed Sun Erniu's hair in the chaos. As for me... I'm a coward. When I saw them fighting, I was too scared to move. I could only shout from the sidelines, 'Stop fighting, the instructors are coming soon,' but they wouldn't listen to me."
Her words were so impeccable, because what she stated was absolutely true.
She pointed out that Qiao Lin was the one who started the fight and was the instigator of the conflict.
It also pointed out that Li Yue was the culprit who fanned the flames.
At the same time, Zhao Yan was removed from the main culprit and transformed into a "good person who tried to break up the fight".
Finally, he portrayed himself as a terrified, innocent "coward" trying to mediate the fight.
In an instant, he extricated himself from the murky waters of this chaotic battle, leaving himself completely unscathed!
Su Tang silently applauded her.
pretty.
That was a brilliant move – sacrificing a pawn to save the king.
She not only distanced herself from the situation but also did Zhao Yan a favor, completely betraying Qiao Lin, the leader of her little group.
Moreover, what she stated was almost entirely true.
When the instructors questioned the other neutral participants who had not been involved in the fight, they could find no clues whatsoever.
As expected, Zhang Ruobing's gaze turned to Su Tang and Zhou Zhihui, the only two people in the dormitory who were clean and tidy and had not participated in the fight.
"Su An, Zhou Zhihui, are you two telling the truth that you didn't participate in the fight?"
Su Tang didn't want to get involved in their messy affairs, and simply replied with two words: "It's true."
Zhou Zhihui was originally on Zhao Yan's side, and seeing that Zhang Man, the "enemy," had turned against them at the last minute, why wouldn't she go along with it? She nodded:
"Reporting, Instructor! It's true. Everything Comrade Zhang Man said is true. I can also testify that Qiao Lin struck first."
With confirmation from two bystanders, the truth has come to light.
"Zhang Man! How dare you betray me!"
Qiao Lin finally realized what was happening; she had completely lost her mind.
