Chapter 347 Adjusting Surveillance
"Yes, don't worry. This is the Imperial Academy. Wen Xiaoxiao wouldn't dare to do anything to me, nor does she have the ability to do so. I just checked Murong Ting's pulse. Although he is not in any danger, I will still have to trouble you to take extra care of him."
"Young Madam, please don't stand on ceremony with me. Taking care of Young Master Ting is what I should do."
Kong Wange nodded, opened the car door, and got out.
Seeing that she had gotten out of the car, Wen Xiaoxiao made way for the ambulance, which sped away.
She walked up to Kong Wange with a smug look on her face, grabbed her hand, and whispered, "Kong Wange, you can't escape. You deliberately set the fire, so just wait to go to jail!"
"Let go." Kong Wange's eyes flashed with coldness as she flung her hand away.
Wen Xiaoxiao was embarrassed after being shaken off and wanted to grab Kong Wange again, but for some reason, when she looked up and met Kong Wange's intimidating gaze, her hand froze involuntarily.
She forced herself to stay calm, completely erasing any fear or guilt in her heart, and looked around as she loudly accused, "Kong Wange, you're an arsonist, what makes you so arrogant? Just because you caused so many people to get injured and the hospital to suffer such a huge loss, you still want to just get away in a car? Don't you feel ashamed?"
As soon as Wen Xiaoxiao finished speaking, the surrounding crowd erupted again.
"Hmm? Judging from Wen Xiaoxiao's words, Kong Wange started the fire?"
"No way, she's in the classroom herself. Does she want to burn herself to death too?"
"Maybe it wasn't intentional. Didn't you hear the proctor and Director Han just report that the preliminary assessment of the fire was improper operation of the medicine furnace?"
"Don't talk nonsense! Sister Kong is so smart, how could she have mishandled it? The fire couldn't have been caused by her!" Little Orange couldn't help but raise her voice and argue her case as she listened to the discussions in the crowd.
"She's smart? I think she's just a little bit clever. She got into the experimental class by cheating and tricks, and she really thinks she's a genius." Li Jing also stood up at this time.
He ran the fastest when the fire started, which is why he was the one whose clothes were the cleanest throughout the entire event.
It's precisely this sanctimonious appearance that makes Little Orange want to punch him a couple of times.
Leng Jun, standing to the side with a stern face, retorted sarcastically: "You still have the nerve to say that Kong is opportunistic? How did you, a toad, get into the experimental class? Don't you have any self-awareness?"
"That's right, stop making baseless accusations. I think you're the one who started the fire!" Chen Ge added from the side.
Li Jing immediately became anxious and raised his voice: "You stuttering little bastard, what makes you think I put it there? Do you have any proof?"
Leng Jun chimed in, "Wen Xiaoxiao said that Kong started the fire, but does she have any evidence?"
"Of course I have evidence!" Wen Xiaoxiao sneered as she listened to the three of them, walked over, looked at Han Fei, and said firmly:
"Director Han, I saw with my own eyes that Kong Wange took a large amount of rosin from the pharmacy and threw it into the medicine furnace. As we all know, rosin is a highly flammable chemical. She threw it into the furnace so recklessly. What else could it be but arson? I would call her an arsonist, and I'm not wronging her in the slightest!"
As soon as Wen Xiaoxiao said that, a wave of agreement immediately followed: "Yes, I just ran out, and there was indeed a pine scent in the fire."
It's not impossible that the fire was caused by rosin.
Han Fei frowned and looked at Kong Wange: "Classmate Kong, is what Wen Xiaoxiao said true?"
Kong Wange wanted to laugh when she heard Wen Xiaoxiao say the word "rosin." She had truly grasped the meaning of the idiom "to turn the tables" today.
She looked at Han Fei calmly.
"Director Han, Wen Xiaoxiao said she saw me putting incense into the medicine furnace. What a coincidence, I also saw the same thing with Wen Xiaoxiao."
Her eyes held a cold glint: "I saw her walk around the pharmacy with my own eyes, and finally take lilies, white peony, scutellaria baicalensis, cocklebur and... a whole bunch of rosin. I also saw her throw the rosin pieces into the medicine furnace. If this fire was caused by rosin, I think the culprit is now crying wolf."
As soon as she finished speaking, Wen Xiaoxiao said with an air of righteous indignation, "Pah! Kong Wange, you're saying I'm the thief crying 'stop thief'? How dare you! If you're so right, why didn't you say so earlier? I brought up the issue of rosin, and you just jumped on the bandwagon. Everyone knows who's crying 'stop thief'!"
"Yeah yeah."
"That's right, that's right."
Doubts and criticisms arose one after another.
Li Jing seized the opportunity to kick someone when they were down: "Director Han, I saw it before the fire started. Only Kong Wange left her seat and went to the pharmacy. Her medicine stove was unattended, so it was most likely to have problems." "It seems so. Kong Wange was indeed not at her seat. Not long after she left, the fire started, and the fire started from their direction first," a chubby male student recalled.
Kong Wange stared at the chubby male classmate and asked, "Excuse me, Wen Xiaoxiao's seat is right next to mine. Did you really see clearly? The fire started from my seat, not hers."
"You have to take responsibility for your words. The classroom security cameras are watching!"
Upon hearing this, the chubby classmate immediately backed down and said somewhat uncertainly, "Anyway, the fire started on your side first, but I really can't remember the exact location."
Wen Xiaoxiao chimed in, feigning seriousness, "Kong Wange, stop bluffing. Who are you trying to scare?"
She turned to Han Fei and said, "Director Han, since Kong Wange mentioned the surveillance footage, why don't we check it out? That way, we can save her from denying it and making a scene here!"
Han Fei looked at Kong Wange with an unprecedented seriousness in his eyes: "Kong Wange, I'm giving you one more chance. Confess honestly before the surveillance footage is retrieved, and the hospital can let it go. Otherwise, once the surveillance confirms your wrongdoing, no one can help you!"
Kong Wange curled her lips: "Director Han, do you really think I started the fire?"
After hearing Kong Wange's words, Han Fei's brows furrowed even deeper.
He had a good impression of Kong Wange and thought that as long as she took the initiative to admit her mistake, he would step in to protect her this time.
Unexpectedly, she didn't appreciate it.
The proctor stepped forward and said, "Kong Wange, what kind of attitude is this? Director Han meant well. It's okay to make a mistake, as long as you have the courage to admit it. If it's discovered by the surveillance cameras, the situation will be very different."
Kong Wange looked at the teacher who had spoken. In her memory, the teacher seemed to have a good relationship with Shen Chunmei.
Two close friends who are like-minded.
She said calmly, "Teacher, you should say this to Wen Xiaoxiao."
The teacher's face stiffened, and he snorted coldly, "If you won't listen to reason, you'll have to suffer the consequences!"
After saying that, she turned to Han Fei and said, "Director Han, shall I arrange to check the surveillance footage?"
