The classmates were still playing in groups of three or four, and someone came over to talk to her.
She responded incoherently.
Everyone realized that she was in a bad mood and didn't dare to disturb her anymore.
Before the first class started, Aunt Chen was brought in by their class teacher Wang Yixiao.
Aunt Chen's hair turned completely white and the wrinkles on her face became deeper, as if she had aged twenty years overnight.
She staggered to Xia Chujian's side, without even looking at her, but just stroked the desk next to Xia Chujian, then took out the remaining things in it, held them in her arms very cherishingly, and put her face against them, as if she was holding her most precious treasure.
All the students in the class were stunned by Aunt Chen's actions, and even the most naughty students didn't dare to speak.
It wasn't until Aunt Chen left their classroom that everyone started to explode.
"What's wrong? What's wrong?"
"Isn't that Zhu Yingying's desk? Why didn't she come to class today?"
"Who is that person? Is he the servant of Zhu Yingying's family?"
Xia Chujian had a wooden face and didn't say a word.
At this time, Wang Yi, the homeroom teacher who only came to the class once a month to answer questions, said calmly, "Don't speculate. Zhu Yingying...died in the fire at the private club last Friday."
The classroom suddenly became very quiet.
Everyone stared at the head teacher on the podium, as if they didn't understand what she said.
After a while, everyone burst into laughter and started whispering to each other.
Xia Chujian's classmates were all asking her, "Chujian, didn't Yingying say she was going out to see the world that day? How come she's... gone?!"
"Yes, yes! Didn't she go with Fantani from the advanced class next door? Where's Fantani?"
Xia Chujian just mechanically answered: "How should I know... I thought she and Fantani went to the private club 'Yu' to meet the world, just like you. Who knows..."
"Oh my! I know about that private club fire! It's been in the news for the past couple of days! I never thought it was related to my classmate!"
"Yeah, I was thinking those people who were burned to death were quite pitiful... Oh! Could it be Yingying who was burned to death?! And Fantani!"
"It must be! The news said several people died, all burned to death. The person who was shot didn't die, he was just injured!"
Although Xia Chujian had a blank expression on his face, he still kept his ears perked up as he listened to his classmates chatting.
Sure enough, she was right.
All the classmates knew that Zhu Yingying went to the private club "Yu" with Fantani, so of course she should know it too.
It would have been too fake for her to say she didn't know at that time.
In front of someone like Zong Ruoan, he might be exposed.
Xia Chujian is still in a very strong mental state.
The five men attempted to gang-rape Zhu Yingying. Fantani was the mastermind and they also attempted to film a short video.
These people deserved to die, and she didn't feel guilty at all.
And as a bounty hunter, she has killed at least a hundred people in the past three years, both human and humanoid.
I have long had strong psychological endurance.
Just as everyone was asking each other, the head teacher Wang Yi looked at Xia Chujian with a smile.
Although Xia Chujian lowered her head, she could still feel the gaze from the podium.
Needless to say, the head teacher was looking at her sinisterly again.
Xia Chujian curled her lips inwardly, but on the surface she was still looking at the smart notebook obediently.
Her aunt gave her a list of review points, and she is now giving herself extra lessons.
But she hadn't looked at it for long when Wang Yixiao called her name directly from the podium: "Xia Chujian, come out for a moment."
Xia Chujian had no choice but to close the smart notebook and followed Wang Yixiao to the corridor outside the classroom.
Wang Yi smiled at her expressionlessly and said, "What happened with Zhu Yingying last Friday has anything to do with you?"
Xia Chujian never expected that this head teacher who had always disliked her would actually get straight to the point!
She almost couldn't control herself!
However, Xia Chujian had three years of experience as a hunter, so although his heart was in turmoil, he still showed a confused expression on his face and asked, "Teacher Wang, what do you mean?"
"I don't understand?" Wang Yixiao suddenly raised her voice, "You and Zhu Yingying are so close, how could you not know what she's doing?!"
Xia Chujian: “…”
That's impossible. She kept it so secret, how did the head teacher know about it?
Xia Chujian's mind raced, but her face remained expressionless as she said, "Teacher Wang, Yingying and I are good friends, but I really don't know what she's doing. Besides, she's eighteen, and I'm not even eighteen yet."
Wang Yi was choked by laughter.
The girl in front of her was so tall, almost two heads taller than her.
Standing in front of her, she always forgot that she was not yet eighteen years old.
Wang Yi laughed and said sternly, "Don't interrupt! Last Friday after school, Zhu Yingying went to some shady place with someone. Didn't she specifically ask you to go with her? Would you not go?! That place is so messy, and she was bullied, and she asked you to help her. Would you not go? Don't you always consider yourself the protector of the girls in the class?!"
Xia Chujian's eyes moved slightly, and he felt something was wrong.
She didn't understand for a moment, and just said lightly: "My aunt has just been discharged from the hospital, and I have been anxious to go home to take care of her these days. No matter how close Yingying and I are, we are not as good as my aunt. I don't know why you insist that I know about Yingying."
Wang Yixiao's pupils suddenly shrank, and she could barely control her tone. "Has your aunt been discharged from the hospital? Hasn't your aunt been in the hospital for three years?"
"Yes, she recovered and was discharged naturally." Xia Chujian showed a little bit of just the right amount of joy, but quickly suppressed it and said with a sigh, "I'm very sad that Yingying got into trouble, but I don't understand why Teacher Wang insisted that I go with her? It's as if Teacher Wang was there at the time..."
