Chapter 61 The Thief Cries Thief
"How can we guess? She stole something but didn't put it on her body, and they just framed her. There's no clue at all, and the company can't investigate easily. No matter how hard they try, they can't trace it back to the real thief, right?"
"But this thief can't be far away. He must be one of us female educated youth. He can't be an outsider."
"I don't think it's an outsider. If someone else had entered our dormitory, they would have been discovered long ago."
"That's true." Someone rubbed his arms and said with a chill, "Oh my god, I get goose bumps all over my body when I think there's a thief in our house."
“Who says it’s not?”
"Sleeping in the same room with a thief makes it hard to sleep peacefully at night."
At this moment, Zheng Wenjing suddenly spoke up: "Come to think of it, why don't you suspect Qi Chunhui?"
Everyone was stunned for a moment, and after a while someone spoke up: "But, but it was Qi Chunhui who lost something, how could she be a thief?"
"Yeah, you can't doubt her, right?"
"Doesn't someone who lost something also count as a thief? Isn't there a saying, 'The thief cries thief,'" Zheng Wenjing rested her hands on her chin, her thoughts wandering. "Besides, maybe she didn't lose anything at all? She's just putting on a show for us all."
Everyone looked at each other.
"Isn't it possible?"
"Then, what does she want?"
"Who knows?" Zheng Wenjing spread his hands. "None of us have ever done anything like this, so how can we know what people like this are thinking?"
"No wonder she said she wanted to settle the matter privately and have Yun Qiao compensate her with the thermos."
"So it turns out that he was feeling guilty and afraid of being exposed, so he didn't dare to face the company commander and the instructor."
"Luckily, Yun Qiao was smart enough not to be fooled by her. Not only would he be accused of being a thief for no reason, but he also lost his newly bought thermos."
Yun Qiao lowered his head to tidy up his messy bed and did not participate in their discussion.
Zheng Wenjing came over and said, "Ye Yunqiao, I'm better. I may be a little hypocritical, but I don't have any bad intentions."
Yun Qiao nodded: "Indeed. If you compare it to Qi Chunhui, then you are indeed better."
"Well," Zheng Wenjing said, "don't play with Qi Chunhui anymore. She's always been petty, and I've suffered so much from her since I was little. When I saw you walking with her this morning, I knew it was up to no good, and I was right."
"She was the one who approached me. I didn't expect her to suddenly frame me."
Yun Qiao sighed, feeling that he had encountered an unexpected disaster today.
"Who told you to buy a thermos that no one else in the dormitory has? Now she's got her eyes on it!"
Zheng Wenjing said this, looking back to make sure everyone else was far away. Then she leaned close to Yun Qiao's ear and lowered her voice to say very quietly, "Actually, I don't think Qi Chunhui has any industrial coupons at all. She saw you buy a thermos and saw that I have industrial coupons, so she came up with this idea on the spur of the moment."
Yun Qiao's eyes moved, and he also felt that this might be a possibility.
Qi Chunhui lost the things at such a coincidence and attacked them so quickly that no one doubted him and insisted that he must have stolen them. It was really too weird and too unreasonable.
If she just did it on impulse, that would make sense.
Because Qi Wei acted on impulse, he did not have a complete plan. As a result, his behavior was full of doubts and his words were full of loopholes, which is why he was easily exposed by her trick.
Zheng Wenjing also said: "Qi Chunhui used to look down on me, my parents, and her own family wasn't that good either. A few hundred years ago, they were quite wealthy, with members of the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty and royal relatives. But that was during the Qing Dynasty. Her family fell into decline decades earlier, during the Republic of China, before she was even born."
