The teacher's lips twitched, but she still told Wenling in a businesslike manner, "She didn't cheat."
Wenling simply didn't believe it. Did Xie Li have time to paint instead of doing homework? This was definitely a cover-up!
He reached out and grabbed Xie Li's draft paper, which was actually just two sheets of draft paper, handed out during the exam.
The draft paper was completely clean; there was nothing on it.
The ground around Xie Li was also clean and there was nothing there; the crumpled piece of paper that Qian Shujian had thrown away seemed to have vanished into thin air.
Xie Li: "Teacher, I didn't cheat."
Wen Ling's face grew increasingly grim. He suddenly looked up at Xie Li, his eyes filled with a sinister glint that seemed to want to devour him.
The next second, he suddenly grabbed Xie Li's test paper, "Since you have nothing better to do, then hand in your paper now and stop answering questions!"
Xie Li instinctively pressed down on the exam paper. "What right do you have to ask me to hand in my paper early?"
It's not time to hand in the papers yet.
Wenling sneered: "Why am I not qualified? I suspect you cheated. Do you think you can get away with this trick?"
The teacher next to her tried to persuade her, "Teacher Wen, we've all checked, and she definitely didn't cheat."
He couldn't quite understand where Wenling's stubbornness came from. Judging from Xie Li's performance in the Encyclopedia King challenge, he wouldn't stoop to cheating in this kind of exam.
Most of the students here are from international classes, not the geniuses in advanced classes. Is it worth taking this risk?
Wen Ling pursed his lips, stared at Xie Li for a long time, and then slowly said, "I request a body search."
The other proctor was completely dumbfounded; Wenling's request was simply too much.
"No, why? What's the reason?" the teacher said, sounding a little angry. "Besides, you have no right to do this, and the school has no right to do this either!"
Wenling remained unmoved: "I saw her pick up a crumpled piece of paper from the ground, and someone else had thrown it at her—Qian Shujian!"
Wen Ling turned to look at Qian Shujian, "Get up and tell me what exactly happened. Why did you help Xie Li cheat?"
Qian Shujian, who was suddenly called out, never expected things to turn out this way, and his face turned pale instantly.
He intended to harm Xie Li, but he didn't expect it would involve him. He even changed his handwriting when writing that note.
He opened his mouth, wanting to argue that nothing of the sort had happened, but before he could speak, Jiang Yifan suddenly raised his hand: "Teacher, I saw it too."
Qian Shujian's face turned deathly pale, and his eyes were filled with disbelief as he looked at Jiang Yifan.
If you are caught cheating on an exam, your score for that subject will be invalidated.
Linjiang No.1 Middle School implements a strict class-based system. If his science score is invalidated, he is very likely to be ranked last and fall into the 19th class of the regular class, becoming a complete joke.
In more serious cases, it might even be recorded in the school's file, causing even greater consequences.
Qian Shujian gritted his teeth, ignoring Jiang Yifan's desperate attempts to signal him.
He understood Jiang Yifan's meaning: since he had been caught by Wenling anyway, he might as well confess and drag Xie Li down with him, so they could both perish together.
But why should he be the victim? It was Jiang Yifan's sudden betrayal that he couldn't tolerate.
Anyway, Xie Li somehow managed to get rid of that crumpled paper, so he might as well just ignore it.
He didn't believe the school could actually search Xie Li.
Once he made up his mind, he simply wouldn't admit it.
Suddenly, another proctor's eyes narrowed and fell on a spot behind and to the side of Qian Shujian, hidden in the shadow of a stool leg—there was a crumpled piece of paper.
