The Female Assassin Pretends to Be a Lamb in the Campus-Chapter 25: Monitoring Evidence; Talk to My Lawyer.
Chapter 25
Feng Teng frowned, making everyone present shudder inwardly.
"It seems this is not a misunderstanding," Feng Teng said in a low voice. "Tell me exactly what happened from start to finish."
Seeing the situation was not looking good, several school leaders who were unrelated tactfully looked towards the math teacher and class teacher.
Meeting Feng Teng's gaze, the math teacher was scared weak at the knees. Facing the silent pressure from the school leaders, she had no choice but to reluctantly stand up and stammer:
"It...it's like this, Mayor Feng. Qiao...Qiao Ying's grades have never been very good, but this time the math test, she suddenly got first in the grade. So..."
"So you think she cheated?" Feng Teng directly finished her sentence. "Where's the evidence?"
"Evi...evidence..."
The math teacher repeated it several times but was unable to continue. Breaking out in a sweat, she looked to the class teacher and principal pleadingly.
However, the others were already too preoccupied to pay her any attention, directly pretending not to see. The principal as the highest leader of the school had no choice but to try to smooth things over: "This was indeed Teacher Chen's dereliction of duty."
Pushing all the responsibility off nice and clean.
The math teacher cursed the principal for being heartless in her heart, but it was her who caused this situation. She could only admit: "It was my mistake."
Feng Teng: "In other words, you have no evidence to prove Qiao Ying cheated, but decided Qiao Ying cheated anyway and wanted to expel her. Principal Fang, is this how you handle matters?"
The fire was redirected at him again, catching Principal Fang off guard. He quickly smiled apologetically and said: "This was a misunderstanding."
"A misunderstanding? I heard very clearly when I came in," Feng Teng did not give the principal any face.
This was someone the Qin family had asked him to take care of. Feng Teng did not come today to handle matters, only to give face and support to Qiao Ying for the Qin family.
"Principal Fang, the college entrance exam is coming up soon. Qiao Ying is a college entrance exam candidate. Let's not talk about how you convicted her without any proof, causing psychological damage that will impact her future. I just want to know who gave you the right to arbitrarily expel a college entrance exam student?!" Feng Teng suddenly raised his voice, almost scaring everyone present out of their wits.
"Yes, yes, it was dereliction of duty by the school. I also hold great responsibility for this matter," the principal wiped sweat nonstop.
"Humph!" Feng Teng let out a cold humph. Just the aura was enough to make people not dare raise their heads. He no longer paid the principal and others any attention, instead asking Qiao Ying: "Qiao Ying, how do you think we should handle this?"
If today's matter was not resolved to Qiao Ying and the Qin family's satisfaction, he felt his career as mayor would come to an end.
In Feng Teng's eyes, Qiao Ying was someone from the Qin family. What could the Qin family not provide if Qiao Ying needed it? Why would she need to cheat on a small exam?
Moreover, Qiao Ying daring to get a lawyer meant she had a clear conscience.
So he directly ordered the monitors reviewed and the proctor brought over.
"This..." The principal was in a difficult position. If it really came out that they had wrongly accused Qiao Ying... But Feng Teng had already spoken, how could he not obey?
The math teacher and class teacher now had confidence however. No one was clearer than them on how terrible Qiao Ying's grades were.
With Qiao Ying's brain, how could she test so well? Unless it was a ghost.
Up until now, the math teacher still believed Qiao Ying answering questions correctly on stage last time was a fluke.
Qiao Ying did not stop Feng Teng's actions.
Soon, the proctor was brought over. 𝘧𝘳𝓮𝓮𝓌𝘦𝓫𝓷𝘰𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝓬ℴ𝘮
Not having fully grasped the situation, the proctor did not dare lie in front of Mayor Feng Teng and truthfully said: "There was nothing suspicious about Qiao Ying's behavior during the exam that day."
The monitors were immediately brought up as well.
Eight or nine pairs of eyes gathered on the screen.
The monitor footage showed from the proctor handing out papers to Qiao Ying starting to write, handing in the six page exam early after just over twenty minutes. There were no anomalies.
The math teacher and class teacher were dumbfounded.
Just then, the math teacher suddenly recalled Qiao Ying saying to her in the classroom: "This teacher's career is about to end."
The math teacher panicked at the thought of her impending retirement. Disregarding everything, she dragged the progress bar and replayed the monitor footage.
"This is impossible. How could Qiao Ying get full marks? There must be something wrong." The math teacher was emotional and blurted out her inner thoughts.
She quickly pointed out the suspicious parts: "Look, when she was answering questions, it was like she already knew the answers beforehand and was just copying them down. Even I couldn't finish six pages in just over twenty minutes. For the multiple choice, she just glanced before writing down answers. This is not something a normal person can do."
"Knew the answers beforehand? Then we'll need to check the monitor for the place where the exams were kept as well? No problem, the police are already on their way. We'll leave the investigation and evidence collection to them." Qiao Ying was unruffled, and even took the initiative to give the math teacher ideas.
"Principal Fang!" Feng Teng was furious. "You teachers should be models, but instead you bully a student together. You really are something!"
The principal was so frightened he almost knelt down on the spot.
He urgently prodded the math teacher through gritted teeth: "Hurry and apologize to Qiao Ying! The facts are plain to see, what more is there to say?"
The principal was about to be angered to death.
The math teacher's mind was a complete mess. Controlled by fear, hearing the principal's low roar, she only knew to bow and apologize: "Qiao Ying, I'm...I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
Principal: "This was my mistake and the school's. The school will take full responsibility. For the harm Teacher Chen has caused Qiao Ying, no matter how it is handled privately or otherwise, we will fully cooperate with Qiao Ying and definitely give her a satisfactory answer. Qiao Ying, what do you think?"
The principal clearly saw that Feng Teng was going by Qiao Ying's wishes for everything.
He was very curious what background this Qiao Ying had that she could make Feng Teng act this way.
The math teacher, frightened into speechlessness, could only apologize repeatedly. She felt like death was imminent.
Faced with the principal and math teacher's pleading, Qiao Ying was completely unmoved: "How to handle this, discuss it with my lawyer."
Everyone followed her gaze to see a well-dressed, confident looking young man walk in.
The man was unsmiling, with a contradictory temperament. At first glance he seemed refined and scholarly, but on closer look, he also gave off an aura of... deadliness.
