"Where's your phone?" The homeroom teacher held out her hand to the girl. "Give it to me!"
The girl's face was deathly pale, and she bit her lip without saying a word.
It's common for students to have cell phones at school.
The school does not prohibit students from bringing mobile phones to school, but it also has a clear rule that students are absolutely not allowed to use their mobile phones during class.
Once discovered, they will be severely punished.
The atmosphere in the classroom became somewhat awkward for a moment.
Jiang Li glanced at the girl briefly, a thoughtful expression on her face.
The girl was quietly tugged at by her deskmate. She suddenly took a deep breath and her tone became firm. "Teacher, I wasn't playing on my phone. Don't listen to Jiang Li's slander. If you don't believe me, you can search me. I really don't have a phone on me."
The situation has escalated to the point of requiring a body search, which is really going too far.
However, since it was the girl who brought it up, it would seem like others would feel guilty if they simply gave up.
"Who wants to come?" The homeroom teacher looked at the students in the class.
The girl suddenly gave Jiang Li a provocative look, pointed at Jiang Li and said, "Since Jiang Li said I was playing on my phone, then let Jiang Li search for me."
After a pause, the girl continued, "Jiang Li, you won't refuse, will you?"
“No need to search.” Jiang Li said calmly and confidently. “I’m not stupid. If you dare to say that, then the phone is definitely not on you.”
"Ha! Jiang Li, you really are disgusting," the girl said with utter disgust. "Is it so hard to admit you're slandering me?"
"I said the phone wasn't on you, but I didn't say it didn't exist. Why are you in such a hurry to convict me?" Jiang Li smiled and tapped the table lightly with her slender fingers. "I'll give you one last chance. Are you going to confess voluntarily, or do you want me to find the phone for you?"
"Don't try to fool me. I said no, and that's final!" the girl said firmly.
She's very confident now.
Jiang Li is doomed to lose this time!
“Since you won’t shed a tear until you see the coffin, then I’ll just have to bring the coffin over here.” Jiang Li got up from her seat and walked up to the girl. She looked directly into the girl’s eyes and said, word by word, “Look into my eyes, don’t look away.”
The girl forced herself to look Jiang Li in the eye.
But being stared at by such a sharp gaze, her eyes couldn't help but flicker.
"Where is the phone?" Jiang Li's voice suddenly became ethereal, with an indescribable quality.
The girl was provoked by Jiang Li's voice. Her eyes flickered again, and then she quickly said, "I don't know! What do you want to do by framing me like this?"
"Thank you," Jiang Li said, then turned around.
Everyone: "???"
What's going on?
Why are you thanking me so much?
Jiang Li walked to the corner of the classroom, where there were brooms, mops, trash cans, and buckets of water.
Jiang Li bent down and found a plastic bag in the bucket.
Upon opening the plastic bag, a cell phone was revealed inside.
Those who knew the girl well would naturally recognize that it was her phone.
However, compared to Jiang Li, everyone was more familiar with the girl, so none of them spoke up, secretly favoring that girl.
"Is this your phone?" Jiang Li took the phone, her tone light and casual.
The girl was shocked by Jiang Li's speed; she hadn't expected that Jiang Li could actually find her phone.
But she still stubbornly said, "Jiang Li, you're really funny. Everyone saw that you found the phone in the bucket. Putting aside whether it's mine or not, how could I be playing on my phone in class when it's so far away from me?"
"So you admit this is your phone?" Jiang Li asked.
The girl's face paled slightly, but she still firmly denied it, saying, "This isn't mine."
Jiang Li smiled, quickly pulled the girl's hand, and used her finger to unlock the fingerprint lock.
girl:"!!!"
Everyone: "..."
That's awkward.
"So what if this phone is mine?" the girl finally admitted. "But the phone isn't in my possession, which just proves that I didn't use my phone in class. It also proves that you, Jiang Li, are slandering me!"
Jiang Li chuckled and opened her phone's photo album, pulling out the most recently taken picture.
The photo does indeed capture someone eating.
only……
The main character is... Lu Jiming.
Lu Jiming hadn't exerted himself this much in a long time, and after resting, he was naturally very hungry.
So he couldn't resist and secretly ate something.
The result was unexpected...
This whole mess is going to happen.
However, Lu Jiming did not react to this.
What's wrong with sneaking a bite?
So what if I got photographed?
Anyway, he won't lose a single piece of his flesh.
"Are you still going to deny it?" Seeing that the girl was speechless, he said, "The lighting and angle of this photo were taken from your position, and it's your phone. So if you weren't playing on your phone in class, then who was?"
girl:"……"
"But how did her phone end up in the bucket?" Some people still defended the girl, "How did she manage to move her phone in front of everyone?"
“I thought you all understood this already,” Jiang Li said, emphasizing each word. “The school doesn’t allow playing on your phones in class, but there are always ways around the rules. You haven’t been caught playing on your phones in class, but does that mean… you’ve never played on them? You haven’t been caught because you’ve cooperated well. I have to say, your class is quite united in helping each other cover for each other.”
Seeing that everyone looked a little uncomfortable, Jiang Li perfectly recreated the process of the phone being moved.
After taking the photo, the girl immediately put her phone in her deskmate's pocket.
Her deskmate took the opportunity to put her phone in a bag, pretending it was trash and asking a classmate to throw it away.
Everyone knew immediately that the bag contained a cell phone, so the bag ended up being placed in a bucket instead of a trash can.
Everyone hid their phones so discreetly, which made the homeroom teacher's face turn completely dark.
It seems these little brats have done this kind of thing countless times right under his nose.
So skillful, so smooth...
"Alright, the truth is out." Jiang Li didn't intend to pursue the matter any further and returned to her seat.
Of course, she didn't pursue the matter further. Judging from the teacher's expression, he probably wouldn't let the matter end peacefully.
"Now that my name has been cleared, let me give you a piece of advice: if you don't like me, just bear with it; if you really can't stand it, be prepared to lose face."
As she was speaking, Jiang Li's phone vibrated.
She took out her phone in front of everyone.
Looking at the message on her phone, Jiang Li said to her homeroom teacher, "Teacher, I have something to do right now and need to leave."
The homeroom teacher looked at Jiang Li, then at the other students in the class, and nodded.
Jiang Li picked up her backpack and left the classroom openly and legitimately.
"Teacher, you're just going to let her go like that?" someone asked incredulously. "She was playing on her phone in full view of everyone, and you weren't going to do anything about it?"
"She has special privileges, which I can't control," the homeroom teacher chuckled. "But you two are different. Let's talk about your situation..."
