Everyone leaned forward to take a look. Someone in the crowd shouted, “This is Wang Wei’s amulet! I’ve seen it before!”
“Who’s talking? Come to the front!” the dean said as he pointed at the boy.
The boy strode to the front and said, “I’m Wang Wei’s roommate. This amulet belongs to Wang Wei. His mother had gone to the temple to get it for him. The temple keeps record of the amulets they give out. You can go and check the records.’
“Wang Wei, is what he said true?” the dean asked as he looked at Wang Wei.
Wang Wei clearly remembered that he had placed this amulet in the drawer of his desk in his room. Why was it here now? He usually wore this amulet on a string around his neck. Last night, the string had loosened a little, so Wang Wei had left it in the drawer. This thing could not have appeared here. It must be Xie Jing who did it!
The real reason for the amulet appearing in this area was because Qiao Mei had used the vines to sneak into Wang Wei’s room late at night. She used the vines to steal the amulet and left it here so that it would become evidence later. Otherwise, in this era without surveillance cameras, how could they catch the real culprit! Qiao Mei was not wronging him by doing this.
“l… but I didn’t do it! I just brought the dog here to eat the strawberries! I didn’t do anything else to Qiao Mei’s strawberry plants! This must be Xie Jings doing! Xie Jing instigated me to do all these things! Xie Jing must have left my amulet here! This has nothing to do with me!” Wang Wei shouted.
“Tell me honestly, what does all this have to do with Xie Jing?” the dean asked.
“Xie Jings wife came to look for me some time ago. She told me that as long as I think of a way to destroy Qiao Mei’s strawberries, I can get the chance to study abroad. She said that Xie Jing will give me the slot because he doesn’t want to go overseas. He only participated in this competition to fight for validation,” Wang Wei said frankly.
Xie Jing looked at the teachers innocently and said, “Professors, 1 didn’t do any of these things. I don’t know anything! Besides, the opportunity to study abroad is so rare. Why will I give it up to others so easily? What Wang Wei said is full of loopholes. I really didn’t do this.”
Xie Jing had many admirers and everyone believed what he said. Without concrete evidence to prove that Xie Jing was related to this matter, they would not believe that he had done something wrong.
In addition, Cui Hua liked Xie Jing so much and the two of them had already talked about this. If the matter was exposed, Cui Hua would take all the blame so that Xie Jing was not implicated at all. She would not let Xie Jing have a bad name.
Cui Hua was willing to give up everything for him.
“Professors! You have to believe what I say! I don’t lie! Xie Jing and his wife asked me to do this! It’s absolutely true!” Wang Wei shouted as he pointed at Xie Jing.
Xie Jing immediately retorted, “You must be taking revenge on me for what happened in the past! You’re slandering me!”
What happened in the past? Did something happen between him and Xie Jing in the past?
Last year, during practical lessons, Wang Wei and Xie Jing had fought over the spots in the experimental field and the glass greenhouse. In the end, after mediation, Xie Jing occupied Wang Wei’s spots. At that time, Wang Wei held a grudge against Xie Jing for a long time. Every time he walked past Xie Jing, he would curse at Xie Jing. Everyone could still remember this incident!
“Profesor, you have to believe me! I really didn’t do it!” Wang Wei was so anxious that he almost wanted to kneel down to explain to his teacher.
At this moment, Qiao Mei pointed at the strawberry plants in the shed and said, “Professor! Somethings wrong! I planted a total of 30 strawberry plants here, but there are only 25 left now! I lost five strawberry plants!”
The principal hurriedly flipped open Qiao Mei t s plant growth notebook. It was indeed recorded that there were 30 strawberry plants and also documented in the latest photo. Then where did the five missing strawberry plants go?
“Did you hide my strawberry plants?” Qiao Mei asked as she looked at Wang Wei.
“No! I definitely didn’t!” Wang Wei immediately said.
“Even if the dog ate the strawberries, there’s no reason for it to eat the entire plant. Someone must have stolen my strawberry plants,” Qiao Mei said firmly.
Wang Wei immediately pointed at Xie Jing and shouted, “It’s him! He must have done it! I really didn’t steal your strawberry plants.. I just let the dog in and didn’t do anything else! It must be him!”
