The three roommates in the dormitory remained silent, and their attitude clearly showed that there was something wrong.
"Bang!"
Meng Zhen slammed the dormitory door shut, his voice a bit cold:
"Since you won't answer my questions, then don't go to class. Try to figure it out before you leave."
She looks delicate and soft, but her temperament suddenly changes when she doesn't smile.
He seemed cold and unapproachable, even a little arrogant.
"Are you ill?"
Lu Qian angrily threw the book in her hand on the table, "Why don't you let us go out to class?!"
Lu Qian took the lead in the outburst, and Li Xiaohong also voiced her support:
"Yes, Meng Zhen, I'm going to be late for Advanced Mathematics class. Can't we talk about it after class?"
Meng Zhen looked at Zhang Mei. The other party looked hesitant and wanted to say something, which obviously showed that she knew something.
However, neither side wants to offend, so they choose to remain silent.
Meng Zhen did not force Zhang Mei to answer, but crossed his arms and glared coldly at the remaining two people.
"I ask again, who moved my bed?"
"Let's not explain it clearly. Let's just stay in the dormitory today. I'm not interested in the scholarship anyway, and I don't mind being called out for skipping classes."
Among them, only Li Xiaohong is in great need of money and is determined to get the scholarship.
If you are marked as absent from class, not only will you lose points in the teacher's impression, but your final grade will also be affected, which will naturally affect your scholarship selection.
After hearing Meng Zhen's words, Li Xiaohong finally became a little anxious:
"Meng Zhen, are you being too much of a bully? Your bed was moved, what does it have to do with me? Why are you taking your anger out on me?"
"I'm bullying people?" Meng Zhen almost laughed.
"I didn't hit you, I didn't yell at you, and I didn't poop or pee on your bed. How could that be considered bullying? I just asked you something nice and you didn't answer. You had to wait until I was upset before you said anything. A single denial would be a pain in the ass, wouldn't it?"
"You!" Li Xiaohong's cheeks flushed red as she rushed out angrily, holding her books. "Now that I've said it wasn't me, get out of the way! I need to go to class!"
Lu Qian also picked up the book, wanting to go out together when Li Xiaohong broke through the defense.
Meng Zhen had already guessed what the two wanted to do and was prepared.
She picked up a cup of hot tea from the desk and slowly opened the cup. Hot steam immediately rushed out and it looked very hot.
His tone was somewhat lazy: "I haven't had time to drink the freshly brewed tea yet. Do you two want to try it?"
She pretended to throw the tea on Li Xiaohong and Lu Qian who were approaching her.
And it was aimed at the two people's faces.
The two of them were immediately frightened and took a big step back.
"What are you doing?!"
Lu Qian's voice trembled as she scolded,
"I'm telling you, burns are still injuries, and they're against the law!"
Li Xiaohong was also frightened and yelled, "Don't come over here! Calm down!"
"If you have anything to say, please talk about it..."
Meng Zhen admired the two men's cowardly looks and took back the teacup in his hand.
"I'll ask again, who moved my bed? There are only a few people in the dormitory. Even if someone else slept in my bed, it was you who let them in."
"Better be clear, otherwise if my hand shakes, I won't know whose face will be ruined."
Lu Qian and Li Xiaohong looked at each other in fear.
Lu Qian covered her face with a book and shouted, "Anyway, we didn't touch your bed! Don't go crazy here. It's just someone sleeping in the bed. What's the big deal? You're so precious!"
"Besides, what right do you have to restrict our freedom to enter and leave the dormitory? Your behavior is already illegal!"
"I'm telling you, my uncle is the chief. He loves me the most. If you dare to hurt me, he will never forgive you!"
Li Xiaohong also said: "Yes, Meng Zhen, Uncle Xixi is in the military district, aren't you afraid of being arrested?"
"Let us out now. Let's just treat what happened today as a thing of the past. I won't bother with you anymore."
Zhang Mei wanted to say something to Meng Zhen, but when she heard Lu Qian say that her uncle was from the military district, she shut up again.
She can't afford to offend.
Meng Zhen didn't expect Zhang Mei to come forward and tell the truth.
But from the looks of it, this matter has nothing to do with Zhang Mei.
She narrowed her cold eyes, curled her lips and chuckled: "Haha, if you don't know, you would think your uncle is your real father."
"That's perfect! I'm going to report it to the police, too!"
"Someone slept in my bed, and the hundred dollars I had under my pillow was lost."
"The doors and windows of the dormitory were intact. It was obvious that the thief was either an insider or colluding with outsiders."
"I'm guarding the door now. This is not illegal detention. I'm protecting the scene."
"Oh, I can't believe there's a thief among the students of the nation's top university. I wonder what the teachers and classmates will think if they find out?"
Meng Zhen finished speaking slowly.
She had already thought about what would happen next when she blocked the door.
Today we must find out who touched other people’s things without permission and make an example of them!
She still has to stay in the dormitory for many days, so there is no reason to be on guard against thieves every day.
Of course, she didn't really lose the money, nor did she intend to report it to the police. She was simply trying to defraud a few people.
"Go ahead and report it to the police. I'm innocent and have nothing to fear. Besides, do you think I'm short of money? Who cares about your hundred dollars?"
Lu Qian spoke in a domineering tone. Anyway, she didn't steal the money, and the police couldn't trace it back to her.
Meng Zhen ignored her and turned to look at Li Xiaohong:
"Your wife always shows off everywhere, making others think she is rich."
"Then what are you going to do? If this gets out of hand, even if the police don't find the person who stole the money, everyone in the school will know there's a thief in our dormitory. Then all the suspicion and gossip will fall on you alone, right?"
As everyone knows, Li Xiaohong is the poorest person in the dormitory.
Meng Zhen does not discriminate against the poor. On the contrary, she admires those who can break through the limited natural conditions and make great achievements.
She said this just to break down Li Xiaohong's psychological defenses.
Sure enough, when Li Xiaohong heard these words, her face turned pale instantly and she bit her lower lip helplessly.
She grew up in the countryside and knew only too well how damaging rumors could be to a person.
She didn't steal any money, so why should she bear this responsibility?
She unconsciously looked at Lu Qian, her eyes flickering.
Lu Qian looked away guiltily, not meeting her gaze.
Seeing this, Meng Zhen had nothing else to understand. This was most likely done by Lu Qian.
Meng Zhen raised his wrist and checked the time. "It's half past ten. Two classes should have finished. If no one comes to my rescue, I'll call the police."
"Then have the teachers and classmates come to our dormitory to judge the case."
It’s over, two classes have passed.
The school is most strict with freshmen, and many teachers take attendance in every class.
Li Xiaohong looked anxious.
But the instigator didn't react at all and looked fearless.
Finally, she couldn't hold it in any longer and confessed, "Meng Zhen, it was Wang Chunmei's relative from the next door dormitory who slept in your bed."
"Her relative came to the capital on business and couldn't bear to stay in a guesthouse, so she asked her to stay for two nights. Since you don't stay in the dormitory on weekends, I borrowed your bed."
