Chapter 256 The Pseudo-Student's Black Moonlight Goddess 06
Xin Zeming took the watch, his smile growing even more smug. "Now that we've caught you red-handed, what else can you say?"
Wang Xiaolei's face darkened. "In our Class A, and indeed in the entire Boya High School, stealing is absolutely not tolerated."
Xin Zeming played with his watch and asked, "Zhuang Yan, are you going to drop out of school on your own initiative, or wait for the school to expel you?"
Zhuang Yan laughed outright, but with a hint of contempt in his smile, "Just based on this, you want to put the hat of the thief on my head? Don't you think it's too ridiculous!"
Shen Xinran saw through the fat boy's trick at a glance. She smiled and shook her head, then stood up and stood in front of Zhuang Yan.
Then she touched her hair and exclaimed in mock surprise, "Oh, my hairpin is gone too."
Xin Zeming frowned, "It must have been stolen by this poor boy. Zixiao, come here quickly, don't get too close to this kind of person."
After looking around, Shen Xinran sighed and said, "The hairpin was still there when I entered the classroom just now. It seems that the suspect can only be among you. In that case, why don't I search you too!"
Xin Zeming raised his chin, looking confident. "We have nothing to fear from our own shadows, so of course there's no problem."
Shen Xinran smiled and said, "Then let's start with you."
After saying that, he walked to Xin Zeming's seat, picked up his schoolbag, and pretended to rummage through it.
Zhuang Yan probably understood what Shen Xinran wanted to do. He was suddenly stunned, as if he didn't understand why Shen Xinran would help him.
Shen Xinran took out a hairpin from Xin Zeming's schoolbag, and then looked at Xin Zeming with interest, "Why is my hairpin in your schoolbag? Did you steal it?"
Xin Zeming's face flushed red. "Are you kidding me? How could I steal your hairpin?"
Shen Xinran nodded and said with a smile: "Then what basis do you have to say that Zhuang Yan stole your watch?"
Xin Zeming frowned and raised his voice, "You...you're just trying to make up his own story."
Wang Xiaolei, who was still standing by, frowned. "Zixiao, even though Zhuang Yan is your deskmate, you can't help the evildoer. Everyone saw the watch being taken out of his schoolbag."
Shen Xinran blinked, looking innocent. "But my classmates also saw my hairpin being taken out of Xin Zeming's schoolbag! So why can't it be Xin Zeming who stole my hairpin?"
Wang Xiaolei looked annoyed. "You know Zeming's family, how could he possibly steal your hairpin?"
Shen Xinran shrugged, "Who can tell for sure? What if he has some quirks that others don't know about?"
Xin Zeming: "I...I..."
Xin Zeming couldn't say it, because he really thought about stealing Qiao Zixiao's things, but not hairpins, but handkerchiefs.
Zhuang Yan, who was still standing by, seemed to see through Xin Zeming's little thoughts and laughed out loud, "You said I stole it, but I said I didn't. If that's the case, why don't you just call the police?"
Xin Zeming nodded immediately. "Call the police if you can. So many classmates saw the watch being taken out of your bag. They're all witnesses."
Zhuang Yan raised the corner of his lips. "Let me remind you, if I touched your watch, my fingerprint would be on it. If my fingerprint isn't on it, what does that prove?"
Xin Zeming was stunned. "Prove what?"
Zhuang Yan smiled nonchalantly, "That proves you've wronged me. Making a false police report is illegal."
Xin Zeming's heart suddenly sank and a trace of panic flashed in his eyes. How could he have forgotten about this?
Just then, the homeroom teacher walked in. She said sullenly, "You're almost senior year, what are you all doing gathered together? You might as well use this time to write a couple more papers and do a couple more exercises!"
Xin Zeming forced a smile and said, "Nothing, just a joke."
Zhuang Yan's voice was cold and unquestionable: "Apologize."
Xin Zeming gave the little fat boy a look, and the little fat boy immediately walked up to Zhuang Yan and said cautiously: "Sorry... I was just trying to play a joke on you, I didn't mean it."
Zhuang Yan looked at Xin Zeming and said seriously, "And you."
Xin Zeming walked over to Zhuang Yan and said through gritted teeth, "I advise you to stop. Anyway, it was Xiaopang who put the watch in your schoolbag, so I'll pretend I knew nothing. What can you do to me?"
Zhuang Yan glanced at Xin Zeming and stopped talking.
Xin Zeming thought he had scared Zhuang Yan and couldn't help but puff out his chest.
Wang Xiaolei probably saw what was going on. Her eyes flickered and she started to smooth things over: "We're all classmates. It's not a big deal to make such a fuss. Let's just go home."
The head teacher also said with a serious face: "If you feel bored, I can give you two test papers."
Hearing the head teacher say this, the students waved their hands and said with a smile: "It's not boring, it's not boring."
The students all returned to their seats, while Zhuang Yan continued to lie on the table and asked in a deep voice, "Why did you help me just now?"
Shen Xinran knew that Zhuang Yan was talking to her. She smiled and said, "Because you were wronged."
Zhuang Yan turned his head, looked into Shen Xinran's eyes, and said seriously, "Have you ever thought about what if it was really me who stole it?"
Shen Xinran shook his head directly, "Impossible."
You are the male protagonist, how could you be dazzled by a watch worth only 200,000 yuan?
Zhuang Yan chuckled and lay down to sleep.
Just when Shen Xinran thought Zhuang Yan would stop talking, Zhuang Yan's deep voice suddenly came from the side, "Thank you."
The voice was so soft that if you didn't listen carefully, you couldn't hear it at all. This made Shen Xinran stunned. Did Zhuang Yan just thank her?
After Zhuang Yan finished speaking, he turned his head to the window. His gaze penetrated the glass and drifted into the distance. It wasn't a thank you for helping him just now, but a thank you for believing in him.
…
During evening self-study, the head teacher suddenly appeared at the window, his voice deep and powerful: "Zi Xiao, come to my office."
Although Shen Xinran didn't know why, she still stood up and followed the head teacher. After entering the office, she stood respectfully in front of the head teacher's desk.
The head teacher frowned and thought for a moment, "Regarding the physical education class, I'd like to hear your opinion."
Without hesitation, Shen Xinran blurted out, "Xin Zeming deliberately wrongly accused Zhuang Yan of stealing."
The head teacher said thoughtfully, "I heard from Teacher Wang that you defended Zhuang Yan today. It seems that you and Zhuang Yan have a good relationship."
Shen Xinran smiled and replied, "He and I are classmates. Shouldn't classmates help each other?"
The homeroom teacher nodded. "It's a good thing to help your classmates, but I hope you know that academic performance is the most important thing for you. With your current level, you are fully qualified to enter a top university."
Shen Xinran smiled lightly and said, "I understand. Thank you, teacher."
