Director Ma and Director Cao both looked at Yang Wanwan.
Yang Wanwan said, "Director Cao, I suggest sending the video to the Public Security Bureau for verification. The county Public Security Bureau may not have the technical expertise, but the city Public Security Bureau certainly does."
"Yang Wanwan, you're dreaming! You think you can send the video to the municipal public security bureau just because you say so? And what makes you think it's fake?"
On what grounds?
She never actually stole any money.
It's the mid-1990s now, and video editing isn't something most people know. But in twenty years, video editing will be something even kindergarten students can do, and every smartphone will have this function.
"Director Cao, I stand by my point of view. Videos need to be verified for authenticity. Professor Liu may not know that there is a technology called video splicing, which can edit two separate videos and then splice them together into one. This technology is widely used in the production of film and television advertisements. Professor Liu should learn it properly."
The classroom, which had been quiet just moments before, immediately erupted in noise again.
Some people whispered among themselves, "I've heard of this technology."
"I've seen the reports too."
...
This time, Director Ma no longer stood aside as someone who seemed insignificant; his gaze pierced sharply at Yang Wanwan.
Yang Wanwan neither dodged nor avoided the question; a slight smile played on her lips as she looked at Director Ma.
The security department manages all kinds of videos in the school, and Director Ma is best able to obtain first-hand information about the videos.
She never expected that it would take two people to just give her a title.
Liu Xiangshang will lead the attack, while Director Ma will cover for him.
I wonder if there are any other people besides the two of them?
Director Cao looked at Director Ma: "Director Ma, does this technology really exist now?"
Director Ma's face was gloomy, but he quickly composed himself and said, "Director Cao, you know I'm a roughneck, I really don't know."
Liu Xiangshang seemed to have thought of something, so he stopped talking, stood aside with a very ugly expression, and stopped speaking.
Yang smiled.
Reminded by himself, Liu Xiangshang must have realized something. If the video was indeed fake, he would be in a difficult situation.
Yang Wanwan said, "Director Cao, I still stand by my point of view. Now it should be up to the school to prove that the girl in the video is me. If they can prove it, I will accept it. Otherwise, I will absolutely not admit that I did it. Furthermore, if it is proven that I did not do it, I hope that Teacher Liu Xiangshang will issue a public apology and restore my reputation."
Liu Xiangshang's eyes bulged: "Yang Wanwan, don't go too far! Everything is still unclear, how dare you do this!"
“Teacher Liu, you dared to conclude that I did it before the facts were clear. Didn’t you think about the impact this would have on me? Since you treat my honor and innocence like bullshit, is it too much for me to ask you to apologize?! You should take responsibility for your mistakes. If you can’t even take that much responsibility, what kind of teacher are you! I’m afraid you’ll corrupt all the students!”
Ha ha ha ha……
Bao Ya laughed from the back row.
The sudden laughter followed Yang Wanwan's calm yet powerful accusation, seeming like a particularly helpful assist.
Liu Xiangshang's face turned pale.
"Director Cao, I can no longer serve as the homeroom teacher! I want to resign from this position!"
Director Cao waved his hand. "Alright, everyone, stop talking. Yang Wanwan, we will have someone knowledgeable carefully examine the video regarding your request. However, you should tone down your aggressive attitude. You're still a student; being too sharp isn't good for you. Alright, students, continue your studies. Director Ma, Teacher Liu, let's go."
After the group left, the classroom became lively again.
Amidst the murmurs, Yang Wanwan glanced at Kuang Jie out of the corner of her eye.
She had medium-length hair tied in a ponytail, her black hair as black as clouds, her skin as white as snow, her features delicate, and her figure slender. The loose-fitting school uniform on her body made her appear even more pure and gentle, like a cloud.
What a delicate and beautiful girl!
When Yang Wanwan was in Fuxing Reservoir Village Middle School, she never paid attention to Kuang Jie.
During that theft, she was only focused on arguing right and wrong with Yang Yixuan and didn't pay any attention to Kuang Jie. Later, when Kuang Jie transferred schools, she completely forgot about her.
Kuang Jie's performance today really surprised her.
That was truly memorable!
After evening self-study, Hu Youjin practically rushed to the classroom door of Class 1, calling out, "Wanwan!"
Yang Wanwan knew that her defiance of the teacher had spread throughout the school, and Hu Youjin also knew about it.
However, Hu Youjin appeared very calm and said loudly, "Wanwan, if you didn't do it, you didn't do it. I'm not afraid of anyone investigating! Let's go eat."
The two walked hand in hand toward the dormitory, and there were many people pointing and whispering along the way.
Yang Wanwan and Hu Youjin didn't care at all, chatting and laughing, completely unaffected.
Yang Wanwan felt the sweat on Hu Youjin's palms and knew that Hu Youjin's composure was all a facade, a way to boost her own morale, so she pretended to be nonchalant.
Hu Youjin has made great progress compared to a few months ago.
She herself didn't care at all because she was absolutely confident. Hu Youjin was still just a young girl after all, and it would be a lie to say she wasn't afraid. Putting aside everything else, being talked about by the whole school was a headache in itself.
Yang Wanwan endured the pressure and gossip for a day before the weekend arrived.
The school still hadn't given an explanation by Saturday morning after school. Liu Xiangshang came to the classroom a few times, always with a sullen face and sharp words, but he didn't take any further action.
Qiao Song came by while I was minding the shop at Moon Bay on Saturday afternoon.
He looked a little awkward and said hesitantly, "Yang Wanwan, I want to say that I believe you didn't steal the money. I believe you."
Looking at the boy, Yang Wanwan smiled. "Thank you for your trust, class monitor. I really didn't steal any money. I'll wait for the school to give me an explanation."
Qiao Song breathed a sigh of relief. He should have stood up for Yang Wanwan that day, just like Bao Ya did. However, he had too many concerns at the time, and he wasn't as carefree as Bao Ya.
"By the way, did the clothes I bought for your mother last time fit?"
"It suits me well, my mom said it looks great."
Unfortunately, he didn't have much money, and the clothes in this store were really too expensive; otherwise, he would have liked to buy another one. He'll come back in a few days when he's saved up enough money.
"Thank you for your patronage!"
As Yang Wanwan spoke, she was also matching clothes in the store. Just then, another customer arrived. She gave Qiao Song an apologetic smile and then greeted the customer.
Qiao Song stood there for a while, watching Yang Wanwan carefully introduce the style, material, and care of the clothes to the customers, and he found it very novel.
Yang Wanwan knows a lot!
