The noise Xu Jingjing made was so loud that the entire dormitory building was alarmed.
That night, the teachers on night shift heard the police car sirens and all ran out to watch the excitement. The corridors, open spaces, and stairwells were crowded with people.
Zhuang Li really became famous this time. Several female teachers pointed at his back and cursed him with hatred: "Beast in human clothing!"
No one noticed the teaching software that hadn't been shut down. Software engineers from all over the country began to search for the exact address of Teacher Zhuang's school and launched a rescue operation. They couldn't stand by and watch a good man being framed.
An hour later, Zhuang Li was taken to the police station, while Xu Jingjing went to the hospital for a physical examination accompanied by several female teachers.
Zhuang Li was detained in the detention room until around nine o'clock the next morning, when he was taken to the interrogation room to record his statement.
A policeman in his fifties pointed at him and asked in surprise, "Aren't you Xu Yaya's brother?"
The last time Zhuang Li came to the police station to inquire about the situation, he was the one responsible for receiving him.
"Didn't you return to Country M? How did you end up being a teacher at Yu Ren High School? Are you secretly investigating Xu Yaya's death?" the police speculated.
Zhuang Li spoke frankly, "Yes, I'm investigating my sister's death, but I didn't hurt Xu Jingjing. She suddenly came to me, saying she wanted to help me with a math problem, then ripped off her clothes, threw herself at me, hugged me, and screamed for help. I was framed."
The two policemen looked incredulous.
"This is Xu Jingjing's injury report. She was indeed sexually assaulted and abused. How do you explain this?" The old policeman tapped the folder placed aside with a pen.
"Has the DNA of the sexual assaulter been detected?" Zhuang Li asked instead of answering.
The old police officer showed an angry expression. "Xu Jingjing said you were wearing a condom. Don't try to argue. Who else could have caused her injuries besides you? The surveillance shows that she was at school all day. The perpetrator could only be someone from the school. We have no grudges against each other, so why would she frame you?"
"I also want to know why she framed me when we had no grudge against each other." Zhuang Li said calmly.
"Stop quibbling! We have overwhelming evidence to prosecute you! First, your resume is fabricated; you have no teaching qualifications! You definitely had other motives for entering Yuren High School! Second, you might be blaming Xu Jingjing for your sister's death and seeking revenge against her! I advise you to confess honestly; you might even save a few years in prison!"
The old policeman slammed the table and roared, then threw the folder on the table to the ground with a loud clatter: "Now all the evidence points to you, don't resist!"
At the same time, noisy sounds were heard outside the interrogation room.
A middle-aged man shouted angrily, "Where is that beast? I'm going to beat him to death! Where's my daughter? I want to see my daughter! When will you finish recording the statement? I want to take my daughter home!"
A woman comforted him in a gentle voice.
The man became even more furious, swearing fiercely, "I'm going to hire the best lawyer in China to sue that bastard to death! I'm going to make him rot in jail! Fuck him!"
The old policeman pointed outside the door and said sternly, "Did you hear that? This is the sin you committed!"
Soon, the principal's voice came from outside: "Mr. Xu, don't be angry. Our school will definitely cooperate with the police to bring the bad guys to justice."
Zhuang Li knew that the police deliberately chose an interrogation room with poor sound insulation so that he could hear these words and thus exert psychological pressure on him.
But he didn't feel any pressure at all. He spread out his hands, his tone still calm: "I will never admit to something I haven't done."
The old policeman was getting a little impatient and was about to intensify the interrogation when a young policeman pushed open the door and hurried in, whispering a few words in his ear.
The old policeman looked surprised and followed him out immediately.
Zhuang Li crossed his legs and waited quietly.
7480 consoled him, "Master, those software engineers posted the video of Xu Jingjing framing you on various social media platforms and even @ed the Ministry of Public Security, claiming they were helping you clear your name. The video has received a huge number of views and is now trending on major media outlets. The Ministry of Public Security just responded to those engineers, stating they would never wrongly accuse innocent people. Master, you'll be out soon."
Zhuang Li hummed lazily.
7480 said cheerfully, "Xu Jingjing, that villain, has finally revealed her true colors! She really was the one who framed the gods in the script! Were those injuries to her caused by Jin Yuanfei?"
"Who else could it be other than Jin Yuanfei? The Lord God is quite good at matchmaking. This couple is a perfect match." Zhuang Li chuckled.
As they were talking, the noise outside died down.
Xu Yong, who had just vowed to sue Zhuang Li to death, was now vehemently denying it: "Impossible! This video can't be real! My daughter would never do such a thing!"
However, the Ministry of Public Security took this case very seriously and had already authenticated the video, proving its authenticity. The results were subsequently published online and sent to the local police station handling the case.
In the face of overwhelming evidence, no one can forcefully label Zhuang Li a rapist.
Even a wealthy and powerful entrepreneur like Xu Yong can't overturn the verdict.
The principal of Yuren High School slumped down in his chair and let out a long sigh. If Zhuang Li's innocence were preserved, it would prove that their school's management system was sound, and the pressure and condemnation from society would dissipate.
As for Xu Jingjing’s vicious behavior, it must be related to her family education. Why should the school be held responsible?
The principal glanced at Xu Yong, his heart full of resentment. How on earth did this man teach his children?
Xu Yong, who was yelling and acting arrogantly just now, is now speechless and extremely embarrassed.
Two policemen held a tablet computer and let him watch videos, read public opinions, and read the notice sent by the Ministry of Public Security urging the branch to release the person quickly.
Xu Yong had no choice but to accept reality. The case had become a major escalation, even reaching the Ministry of Public Security. Even with his vast resources, he couldn't undo it.
Xu Jingjing was truly ruined. Everyone was cursing her, using every possible means to insult her. Her character and upbringing were being questioned and denied from all sides.
She became the poster child for bad students, prompting many netizens to express outrage: "Trash like this should be strangled to death at birth to prevent it from harming society! How dark must her heart be to do such a thing? Does she have no shame?"
No one expected that the seemingly weak victim was the real perpetrator, and that Teacher Zhuang's words and deeds were gentle and polite while maintaining a considerable distance.
He is indeed innocent.
He was just taking classes at home, and out of nowhere, he was slapped with such a huge scapegoat. If he hadn't forgotten to turn off the camera, he would definitely be in jail.
People always sympathize with the weak, not to mention that Zhuang Li, this weak man, is so handsome and has such an elegant temperament. The confused and sad expression on his face when he was wronged makes people feel unbearable.
So the whole society supported him, and the police station where he was detained received thousands of complaint calls in just a few minutes.
Twenty minutes later, the old policeman came in with the chief of the police station, both of them looked very embarrassed.
The branch director shook Zhuang Li's hand and explained the situation, then apologized repeatedly and said that he would personally send him home.
"Regarding my sister's death," Zhuang Li looked at the old policeman's badge and said, "I have some information I'd like to discuss with Officer Huang Youmin. Is that okay?"
The director nodded and said, "Of course. We also find your sister's death suspicious, but we have too little evidence, and your mother is uncooperative, so there's nothing we can do. You guys can talk, I'm leaving now."
The chief apologized again and left the interrogation room.
Huang Youmin took the initiative to ask: "What situation do you want to report?"
Zhuang Li logged onto a campus forum and pointed to a video in the gossip section. He said, "This was captured by some classmates on their phones during morning exercises. The two boys going crazy in the video were classmates of my sister. I checked the surveillance footage and found that my sister had gone into the hills behind the school with them ten days before she committed suicide. When they left, my sister's face showed signs of being beaten. I suspect they were involved in her death."
Zhuang Li turned up the volume of the video and warned, "Listen carefully to what they are saying."
Huang Youmin immediately said, "Send me the video and I'll have the forensic department analyze it."
Zhuang Li sent the video to Huang Youmin. A forensic technician came in with a computer and analyzed it. After analyzing it, he said, "Captain, I've extracted their voices separately. Please listen."
Huang Youmin listened carefully and felt horrified.
Zhuang Li said coldly, "They said Xu Jingjing orchestrated my sister's death and sent her ghost to seek revenge on her. I believe it. If I hadn't been lucky enough to forget to turn off the camera, my life would have been completely ruined by Xu Jingjing. She's very experienced in using public opinion to drive someone to death."
Huang Youmin took a deep breath, shook his head, and sighed, "Your experiences are indeed very similar to your sister's. Xu Jingjing has her own style of committing crimes at such a young age. It's really not simple!"
"So I hope you can help me investigate the two boys in the video. They're showing signs of schizophrenia, which means they're guilty. They could be a breakthrough in my sister's case."
Zhuang Li stood up and bowed deeply: "Please give my sister justice."
Huang Youmin hurried to help him, saying with embarrassment, "I also want to seek justice for every person who has died unjustly, but you have to understand that your sister's body has been cremated. Without an autopsy report, no witnesses or physical evidence, and only the suspect's confession, it's difficult for us to convict them. What we ultimately uncover may just be one truth."
Zhuang Li smiled bitterly and said, "It's good to find out the truth. I don't want my sister to die in vain. Thank you for your hard work."
"It's not hard. This is what we should do. Even if there is no evidence and we can't go to court, I will still investigate this case." Huang Youmin promised firmly.
Zhuang Li shook his hand vigorously and left the interrogation room.
Xu Yong and Huang Wei sat dejectedly in the hall, their faces full of embarrassment.
The police officers passing through the corridor would always glance at them with disdain in their eyes. It seemed that Xu Jingjing had really become famous.
Zhuang Li walked towards the couple slowly.
Xu Yong sat there motionless, his eyes filled with murderous intent. He knew Zhuang Li had been framed by his daughter, yet he still took his anger out on her. In his view, Zhuang Li should have taken the blame and gone to jail, thus preserving their family's reputation.
Huang Wei didn't react at all. The officer hadn't mentioned Zhuang Li's name, so she hadn't known he was her son. It had only been a dozen years, and she had forgotten everything about the past.
"See you in court." Zhuang Li said this and walked out of the police station.
Xu Yong immediately chased after him and asked, "What do you mean?"
A police officer stopped him and taunted him, "Don't you understand what I mean? Your daughter's actions constitute false accusation, and false accusation is a public prosecution. Even if Mr. Zhuang doesn't sue you, our public security, procuratorial and judicial organs will file charges. Your daughter is over 18, right? Then she'll have to spend at least three years in prison."
Xu Yong's face turned pale and he felt dizzy.
Huang Wei quickly supported him, looking very worried, but with a gloating smile in his eyes.
Ha~ She has disliked that little bitch Xu Jingjing for a long time!
Zhuang Li walked to the side of the road and stopped a car.
The principal rushed out of the police station and angrily said, "Zhuang Li, I heard from the police that your resume is forged. If that's the case, our school cannot hire you. Go back to your office and pack up. Our school is terminating your employment contract!"
Zhuang Li took out two work IDs and asked calmly, "Are you sure?"
The principal looked at these work permits and his eyes almost popped out.
Wow, Zhuang Li is actually a distinguished professor in both the Department of Electronic Engineering at Q University and the Department of Mathematics at H University in M Country! No wonder he's still teaching online so late! No wonder so many awesome software engineers are helping him repost the video to prove his innocence.
How could such a great professor come to Yu Ren High School?
The principal still couldn't believe it, so he quickly called the teacher in the admissions office of Q University and asked him to help find a work number.
After a moment, a reply came: "This is the ID of Zhuang Li, our school's distinguished professor. He has several intelligent AI projects that have been approved for support from the National Development Fund. He's an absolute leader in the field of intelligence. He's practically guaranteed a Nobel Prize in the future. Why are you checking him out?"
The principal wiped his sweat and said perfunctorily, "Nothing, just asking. Lao Li, I will definitely treat you to a meal next time I go to City B. I'm busy here, we'll contact each other later."
After hanging up the phone, the principal looked at Zhuang Li with the most flattering smile on his face.
Zhuang Li raised his eyebrows and asked, "Are you still firing me?"
Principal: "...A six-month contract is too short. How about we go back and renew it?"
At this moment, he wanted to cling to Zhuang Li's thighs and beg him to stay. What kind of luck had Yuren High School gotten? This message must be posted on the school's official website, so that the entire nation could see just how strong Yuren High School truly was!
