Chapter 177: Childish Arrest
“…”
"Why don't you say anything? Is it because it's hard to tell? Or is it because you don't have enough authority and you don't know at all?"
Lianyi raised her eyebrows and asked a question that was a bit heartbreaking.
"Well...you don't have to be so blunt!"
Shijiu said in a low voice.
"So you didn't know anything, and just wanted to level up, so you snatched this mission and tricked me into taking it!"
Lianyi wanted to hold her forehead with her hand.
"Well, with your abilities, you will have no problem handling this kind of situation. I will use my personal connections to find out the details. Wait for my good news."
Shijiu went offline after he finished speaking.
With a "click", Lianyi broke the pen in her hand. Fortunately, the other female teacher in the office didn't notice it.
At this time, the bell for the end of get out of class rang. Lianyi threw the broken pen in her hand into the trash can with a sullen face. She adjusted her expression and became the cold and aloof senior talent who had returned from studying abroad.
After class, the elegant and handsome teacher Pan even greeted Lianyi at the door of the female teachers' office:
"Teacher Wu, please leave work late. If you have something to do next time, you can ask me to change your class."
"Teacher Pan, you're too polite. It's not a big deal."
Lianyi replied with a smile, picked up her lesson plan and walked towards the teaching building. Now she was a teacher, so of course she had to be worthy of the salary the school paid her.
Unfortunately, when Lianyi had been in the classroom for her first class for less than ten minutes, a team of military police rushed in with ferocious looks.
"take away!"
The leading gendarmerie captain pointed directly at Lianyi, signaling the gendarmerie behind him to arrest people.
The students in the classroom immediately changed their expressions, and they all stood up and wanted to walk to the podium to protect their teacher.
The class monitor nodded to a boy, who, under the cover of his classmates, slipped out through the back door to find the principal.
Lian Yi pretended to be calm and said:
"Why are you arresting me? What law have I broken?"
But the hand holding the pointer betrayed her nervousness.
"Humph! Hu Qian was found dead in a restaurant box. Some people say that the last person to see him was your teacher Wu."
The gendarmerie captain seemed to enjoy this cat-and-mouse game.
"when?"
"About 12 to 3 noon."
"The person who said he saw me must be lying!"
Lianyi seemed to have found the opponent's loophole. He was obviously relieved and his expression relaxed a lot.
"What's the meaning?"
This time it was the gendarmerie captain's turn to frown.
"I had four classes this morning, and all the students and teachers could prove that I was in school. At noon, I just went out of the school gate and ate a bowl of wontons at the wonton stand across the road. When I returned to school, I met Teacher Pan from the same school.
He said he had something to do, so he switched classes with me. I agreed and stayed in the office for the whole class. Teacher Jia, who works in the same office, can testify that I never left the office.
This is my English class. I just came in less than ten minutes ago and you guys came. I haven't even left the school. How can I go to meet that Hu Qian?
He is just a toad, does he really think I don't know what he is up to? Even if he asks me out, I won't go!"
After the last sentence was said, everyone could feel the contempt for the man named Hu Qian.
"Humph, you are the teacher, so they will naturally side with you. As for the wonton stall owner you mentioned, we have to ask him first. Come with us first."
"You have no evidence, and you just take me away like this. What will my students and teachers think of me?"
Lianyi seemed to be angry and refused to leave with the group of people.
"That's not up to you! Take him away!"
The military police rushed forward again, but were stopped by the young and energetic students. Just as the conflict was about to break out, a majestic voice rang out:
"Quiet! What are you all like?"
The two quarreling parties immediately shifted their gaze.
When the military police captain saw the person coming, he pursed his lips and stepped forward in a somewhat flattering manner and said:
"Mr. Wu, how did I alarm you?"
"I am the principal here. I funded half of the school. The teachers I hired all have overseas study experience. It can be said that there is no other school like this in the whole of Pingbei.
You brought people to arrest people recklessly, but do you take me seriously? Where can I put my face?"
The man who came was an energetic old man wearing a black robe. His gray hair was meticulously combed back, and he held an ebony carved dragon-headed cane in his hands.
This person is Wu You, the president of Yimin University, also known as Sir Anping by the gendarmerie captain.
This Sir Anping was personally conferred the title by the supreme commander of the Kuomintang because in the early days of the war with Japan, this Lord Wu You donated almost all of his property and used his overseas connections to purchase a batch of arms, including ten aircraft. It can be said that he supported the Kuomintang with practical actions, and was commended and reported in the newspapers. He also became a guest of honor in the Presidential Palace.
Sir Anping was a very wise old man with great vision and foresight. He did not become arrogant because of his contributions, but started running a school in a low-key manner. He felt that it was the younger generation who could save the country from dire straits, and they would eventually grow old.
Because Wu You is so aware of the current affairs, President Shi Da also said: Mr. Wu is a rare and pure patriotic hero, and he should be treated with courtesy.
Therefore, although Sir Anping Wuyou had a very prominent status, no one dared to really offend him.
The moment Lianyi lowered her eyes, she had already dug out the information of this big man from her original body's memory. Moreover, she came here to teach because of Sir Anping's status and position. She chose to teach in this school.
"Principal, how could I, a weak woman who can't even tie a chicken, kill someone, especially for that kind of person?"
Ripple said with red eyes.
"Don't worry, I know what kind of person you are, otherwise I wouldn't have hired you to teach."
After Wu You finished speaking, he turned to the captain of the military police and said:
"I will accompany Teacher Wu to the Military Police Station."
"Oh! Mr. Wu, aren't you embarrassing me? I wouldn't dare to invite you to our place even if I had the guts!"
The captain of the gendarmerie didn't dare to let Sir Anping go unless he didn't want to do it anymore.
"Then bring the evidence and arrest him. Otherwise, even if your director comes today, he won't be able to take him away!"
Old Wu knocked the ground with his cane and spoke in a sonorous and powerful voice, full of domineering power.
"This...should we check it out again?"
The military police captain said somewhat uncertainly.
"Don't worry, Teacher Wu will be waiting here and won't go anywhere."
The captain of the gendarmerie knew that he couldn't take the person away today, so he could only withdraw his team temporarily.
There's no way. Not to mention him, even the director can't afford to offend this guy.
The arrest that started off well but ended badly ended just like that. Lianyi stepped forward and bowed to Mr. Wu, thanking him for his protection.
"As long as you didn't do it, no one can take you away from here."
