NovelEnglishChapter 304 The Search
The police officers did their job and searched carefully. However, other than some books, there was nothing related to the physics competition.
"Mr. Wang," one of the policemen said to Wang Jin seriously. "We're very busy. If you can't provide any evidence, we'll leave now."
Wang Jin didn't expect the police to be so stubborn. He also didn't expect that a human witness wasn't enough. They even needed physical evidence.
"Xiao Rou, hurry up and hand it over. Don't disturb everyone's class." Tan Jing looked like she was watching a good show.
"Tan Jing, are you blind or deaf? Just based on this person's words, you are determined that I took it? Then if I say that you cheated in the exam this time, will you admit it?"
Tan Jing panicked for a moment. She shouted, "You are the one who stole the questions. How can you accuse me of it?"
"What do you mean I framed you? You call this evidence? I'm a witness." Tan Rou said, "This person said that I bought the test paper from him, you immediately think that it's true. If I say that I saw you cheating, can I say that you cheated too?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTan Jing was speechless.
"If it's not here, it must be at your house. Officer, let's search her house," Wang Jin insisted.
The police officer was a little hesitant. He said, "Mr. Wang, you still have to provide the evidence you have so far. Although we police have the power to search her house, we can go in without a warrant."
For a moment, it was a stalemate.
It was unknown who informed the principal, but the principal rushed over. After he retired from the army, he had not run like today. The principal's secretary, Xiao Chen, couldn't outrun him. He panted heavily behind him and fell behind.
"What's going on?"the principal asked when he saw the scene at the door.
Tan Rou replied, "Principal, Mr Wang suddenly brought a bunch of people and accused me of buying the answers before the physics competition. Please help me out."
The principal put on a straight face and said with certainty, "That's absolutely impossible. Student Tan Rou is not such a person. I can guarantee with my character that Student Tan Rou would not cheat!"
"Principal, how can you be so sure that she won't cheat?" Tan Jing asked unhappily.
The principal looked at her coldly and said, "Before the competition, I told Tan Rou that I would give her a spot, but she refused. Do you think that a student who rejected the predetermined seat would still cheat? Just like how you've already been guaranteed admission to New York University. Would you still cheat in the examination?"
Tan Jing suddenly felt resentment in her heart. The last time Tan Rou went to the office, it was true that Tan Rou already had a predetermined seat for the competition. The principal was really too biased!
At this moment, there was another commotion at the stairwell. A few burly men surrounded an old man who was trembling as he walked over. The old man's eyes did not seem to be very good and he needed someone to help him walk.
"Mr. Zhong, why are you here?" Wang Jin went up to greet him and then saw the director of the Education Bureau. "Director Li, you're here too!"
"I heard that Director Wang found the lost exercise set. We came here to take a look." Director Li spoke in a firm tone.
Wang Jin was sweating profusely. Why were they all here?
When Tan Rou saw the old man, she was very surprised. Why was this old man here? What happened to his eyes and legs?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe principal's secretary finally arrived. Although he was young, his legs were not as agile as the old man.
"Xiao Chen, give me the information in your hand," the principal said when he saw him coming over.
Xiao Chen jogged over to him. The principal opened the package and revealed the box inside. Then, he tore open the box and revealed the exercise with a 'sealed' water mark. "Director Li, take a look and see if this is the document that you lost."
Director Li glanced at it and replied, "It is indeed what we lost from the department. How did you find it?"
"Tan Rou gave this to me this morning." The principal answered him.
"Did you hear that?" Tan Jing shouted excitedly. "Tan Rou gave it to the principal herself!"
The principal glanced at her and continued. "When I got it this morning, the package was still sealed. I was the one who opened it."
Tan Jing insisted on her opinion. "She must have wrapped it up again after opening it!"
The principal really didn't want to argue with a student like her, but he had to speak up. "There's a checklist here from the express delivery station here. Do you want to go through it with me here?"
