Chapter 74
Tang Bai pushed open the door of the compartment and gave Xie Ruheng a thumbs up, "Brother, you are awesome."
There was a commotion outside the dressing room, and someone said that the principal was coming. Xie Ruheng's expression changed slightly when he heard this. If the school leaders wanted to praise him for his courageous act, they would find that there was no such person as Xiao Cheng.
"I have something to do and need to leave first. Please don't reveal my identity to others." Xie Ruheng was so fast that he slipped away in an instant.
"Eh?" Tang Bai watched Xie Ruheng disappear in the crowd, and the crowded crowd automatically made way for the principal and his party to pass.
The principal stood at the front, followed by Bai Zhi, Cheng Wenhui and other teachers.
"Student Tang, how are you doing now?" the principal asked with concern.
"Thanks to everyone's protection, I didn't suffer any substantial harm." Tang Bai said obediently.
"Have all the susceptible alphas been controlled?" the principal said solemnly.
"The five alpha students who unexpectedly went into estrus have all been injected with inhibitors and isolated." A teacher reported the situation: "More than a dozen students at the scene were slightly injured in order to stop them. They have now been sent to the infirmary for treatment. The reason why five students went into estrus collectively in the swimming pool is still under investigation..."
"Why are the alphas in estrus all of a sudden? Did they eat something by mistake?" People began to discuss privately.
"It's because they were swimming with an omega like Tang Bai that the young alphas were stimulated and went into heat. What kind of thing is this? How can an omega be so unrestrained and swim with a group of alphas and betas?"
"Alphas of this age are prone to restlessness. Tang Bai will distract everyone from studying in the military academy and will also make himself a threat. Omegas are not suitable for studying in military academies."
"If she is really marked by five alphas, Tang Bai won't know which one to marry..."
The accusations were neither too loud nor too soft, just loud enough for Tang Bai to hear. His thick eyelashes drooped slightly, covering his amber eyes, making it impossible to see the emotions in his eyes.
Tang Bai looked so quiet that it was heartbreaking. The crowd that was originally whispering lowered their voices unconsciously. Some people said, "Tang Bai is also innocent," "He was frightened and needs our comfort," and "I really want to hug him"...
Cheng Wenhui frowned, walked out of the team accompanying the inspection, stood in front of Tang Bai, and soothed the student's emotions like a responsible teacher: "Tang Bai, you don't have to blame yourself too much. Although it is true that your willfulness has hurt many classmates, they are all willing to save you."
"I told you last time that swimming in the swimming pool as an omega is not good for you and your classmates. Don't act on your own in the future. Listen to your teacher more. Your teacher will not harm you."
After hearing Cheng Wenhui's comfort, more critical voices emerged, "Omegas are so willful", "If Tang Bai had listened to Teacher Cheng earlier, this wouldn't have happened", "Omegas studying in a military academy will only cause trouble", and the words seemed to blame Tang Bai for the accident.
Tang Bai blinked quickly, trying hard to hide the pain on his face at that moment.
In fact, he had anticipated this reaction, just like eating a plate of fish, he was prepared to be pricked by the fish bones.
Tang Bai forced a smile at Cheng Wenhui, trying to use that sweet and soft thing to cover up his emotions. He was ready to say something with reason and evidence, but before he opened his mouth, he heard a familiar voice saying lightly: "It's really strange, Tang Bai came to the swimming pool to practice for many consecutive days without any problems, why did something happen suddenly today?"
That's Xie's voice!
Tang Bai turned around excitedly and saw Xie Ruheng had come over at some point, standing in the crowd. His face didn't show much expression, but he was full of protectiveness. "In addition to the activities in the swimming pool, Tang Bai also spent every day with the students from Class 1 of the Mechanical Department. If there really was an alpha who entered the susceptible period early because of Tang Bai, it should have been a student from Class 1 of the Mechanical Department. Why did the five alphas go into heat when Tang Bai went to the swimming pool this time?"
Tang Bai felt warm at heart as he was protected by his idol.
"And—" A pair of hands pushed away the crowd of onlookers, revealing the face of Mo Zheng who had just arrived. He said word by word: "The inability to restrain oneself is the alpha's own problem, and has nothing to do with Tang Bai."
From another direction came a voice that Tang Bai found familiar: "Yeah, we take classes with Tang Bai every day and nothing goes wrong!"
The one who spoke for him seemed to be called Xu Yi: "What do you mean Omega will only cause trouble when studying in a military academy? Tang Bai often helps us explain the questions. After he came, my enthusiasm for learning has increased."
The person who spoke for him seemed to be Guan Dongwei: "Did anyone here go to the cafeteria to eat today? Tang Bai's omega friends from the Etiquette College came to our school cafeteria for internship and helped us improve our diet. I heard that they also left secret recipes for our cafeteria chefs. Aren't these good changes brought by Tang Bai?"
"The investigation results haven't come out yet, why are you convicting him?"
Perhaps it was because they were too soft-hearted, or perhaps it was because they liked Tang Bai from the bottom of their hearts, many of the cadets from Class 1 of the Mechanical Department who were present came to Tang Bai's defense. Even Bai Li, who disliked Tang Bai the most, said coldly, "A large group of people couldn't stop a few susceptible alphas, and almost let an omega get hurt. What's more embarrassing is that they still haven't found out what the truth is, and they are having fun shirking responsibility and throwing dirty water."
Tang Bai stared quietly at the cadets who spoke for him one after another. His amber eyes were like the morning light that pierced through the hazy mist, revealing an extremely clear and bright light.
The cadets felt inexplicably embarrassed when they met his gaze.
"Thank you to everyone who protected me and defended me today." Tang Bai's tone was as sweet as honey. When he looked at Cheng Wenhui with a sweet look, the warm smile on his face disappeared completely.
"Teacher Cheng told me before that the swimming pool of the Federal Military Academy is not safe. I told Teacher Cheng that I believe in the safety measures of the Federal Military Academy and the quality of my classmates. What I should really guard against is not our classmates, but the bad guys hiding in the dark with evil intentions." The remaining alpha pheromones on Tang Bai's body emanated strongly. He stared at Cheng Wenhui and said softly: "Are you right, Teacher Cheng?"
Cheng Wenhui's expression changed slightly. He couldn't tell whether this vague premonition was an illusion caused by pheromone suppression or for some other reason.
"Yes, the teachers are all doing this for your own good." When Cheng Wenhui finished speaking and saw Tang Bai take out a water cup from his backpack, his right eyelid suddenly twitched.
This water cup was left by Tang Bai in his office before, and he handed it to Tang Bai personally this morning.
"Some time ago, I found that the inhibitor in my backpack was replaced with aphrodisiac. The person who did this had ulterior motives. In order to protect myself, I asked my grandfather for a new jammer, which is this water cup." Tang Bai introduced it to Cheng Wenhui, whose face had changed: "As long as the optical computer is in contact with this water cup, the jammer can invade the optical computer, but this jammer needs my grandfather to control it remotely."
"When Mr. Cheng's optical computer came into contact with the jammer, we found out that Mr. Cheng had purchased a drug that would advance the alpha susceptibility period."
Tang Bai put Cheng Wenhui's purchase records in front of everyone. The evidence was irrefutable.
Everyone was shocked. No one thought that Mr. Cheng, who seemed gentle and afraid of trouble, would do such a thing, not to mention that Cheng Wenhui had initially lectured Tang Bai as a good teacher.
Strange looks fell on Cheng Wenhui, some with disappointment, some with blame, some with anger...
Cheng Wenhui, however, remained calm. He said calmly, "I bought these drugs for my own use. Tang Bai, I am very disappointed in you. Your actions have violated the privacy rights of citizens. You hacked into my computer without any solid evidence. Who knows how many other people you have investigated in this way?"
He looked at the crowd, "Is it the classmate who protected you? The teacher who trusted you? Or a stranger who you only met once?!"
Everyone's face changed when they heard this. No one likes their privacy to be viewed at will.
At this time, Bai Zhi, who had been watching, stood up and said in a calm and calm tone, "I also encountered something similar to Tang Bai. At that time, I found some suspects, but because there was no evidence, I had to let it go. After learning about Tang Bai's experience, I investigated the people who had access to Tang Bai's backpack, and suddenly found out that you, Teacher Cheng, studied at the Federal University of Political Science and Law."
He adjusted his glasses, his green eyes showing no real emotion. "My memory is always good. I remember that I met you, and you were one of the people who had access to my backpack."
"After so many twists and turns, you have become one of the many people who can touch Tang Bai's backpack. Tang Bai has investigated the surveillance in various places, and the scope of suspects has been reduced to the omegas in the Etiquette Academy and you. We all agree that you are the biggest suspect, so we applied to the police station for this method of collecting evidence. We are law-abiding citizens and will not infringe on the rights of others like some sinister people do."
The two eyes behind the lenses looked at each other, and Bai Zhi said gently: "Teacher Cheng, I am very curious, why do you want to buy these medicines for yourself?"
Cheng Wenhui's breathing paused slightly, and the composure he had tried so hard to maintain was in jeopardy at this moment.
