After hearing what Shu Feng said, the students all gave him strange looks.
Xu Chenghai also had a bad feeling and snapped, "You’re spouting nonsense! The money pouch was found in your drawer. Everyone saw it with their own eyes. That’s irrefutable proof! You say I conspired with others to fra you? Where’s your evidence? Bring it out!"
Shu Feng said calmly, "Evidence? Of course I have it. In ten minutes, soone will arrive to prove my innocence. Therefore, no one is to leave this classroom for the next ten minutes."
Zhang Ke said, "Alright, we’ll wait here for ten minutes. Everyone, please return to your seats."
All the students went back to their seats and sat down.
Linga said with a worried expression, "Ah Feng, they’re obviously trying to fra you. Are you sure you can handle this?"
Shu Feng smiled faintly. "Don’t worry. I’m one hundred percent certain."
Ten minutes passed in the blink of an eye.
Seeing that Shu Feng hadn’t done anything, Xu Chenghai started to relax. He sneered, "Shu Feng, where’s your evidence?"
"I’ve brought his evidence!"
A calm voice rang out as Gao Wen strode into the room.
Xu Chenghai’s eyes narrowed, and a sense of foreboding washed over him. "Who are you?" he asked.
"I’m Gao Wen, Captain of the Criminal Investigation Division. Here are my credentials."
Gao Wen smiled, took out his police badge, and handed it directly to Zhang Ke.
Zhang Ke glanced at the badge, returned it to Gao Wen, and said, "Hello, Captain Gao Wen."
Gao Wen asked directly, "Shu Feng, who frad you?"
"Those four should know the truth!"
Shu Feng said, pointing to Wang Mo, Zhou Haifeng, Xu Gang, and Xu Chenghai.
Xu Chenghai imdiately jumped in and shouted, "Officer, you know Shu Feng! Since you know him, you can’t get involved in this case. Don’t you understand the principle of recusal?"
"Shut up!"
Gao Wen gave a gentle, cultured smile, then viciously slapped Xu Chenghai across the face. The blow filled Xu Chenghai’s mouth with blood and sent two of his teeth flying.
Seeing this, a chill went down the spines of the other students.
Zhang Ke frowned and said sternly, "Captain Gao Wen, how can you just hit soone!"
"He deserved it."
Gao Wen smiled and strode over to Wang Mo. He took out a pocket watch, swinging it gently as he channeled his Spiritual Power and began to use Hypnosis. "Wang Mo, who really stole the money? What is the truth? Tell everything."
Wang Mo’s eyes instantly went vacant. He mumbled, "I stole the money. I was the one who put it in Shu Feng’s drawer! It was Xu Gang’s idea. He had and Zhou Haifeng fra Shu Feng."
"Zhou Haifeng said we should make Shu Feng look like a thief so he’d get expelled. He wanted him to be a penniless loser for the rest of his life, a mber of the Lower Class!"
As soon as Wang Mo finished speaking, the classroom erupted into a flurry of discussion.
"So it was him!!"
"Of course it was Xu Gang!!"
"I can’t believe he’d fra Shu Feng. What kind of deep-seated grudge does he have against him?"
"..."
All eyes, filled with peculiar expressions, fell on Xu Gang as the students broke into discussion.
Xu Gang, furious, shouted, "Wang Mo, you’re lying! You and Shu Feng are in on this together to fra !"
"Why don’t you tell us yourself? Xu Gang, why did you fra Shu Feng?"
Gao Wen smiled faintly and swung his pocket watch. Eerie ripples spread out towards Xu Gang.
Xu Gang’s body trembled. His eyes were instantly captivated by the eerie pocket watch. Though he knew sothing was wrong, he couldn’t look away. His gaze turned vacant. "I’m jealous. Why does a poor kid like Shu Feng get to be friends with Ding Xiaoxue?"
"I hate that Shu Feng beat in a fight. He actually dared to hit . My own father has never hit in my entire life. What right does that poor kid have to hit ?"
"I wanted to ruin his future. I wanted to make it so he couldn’t show his face at school. I wanted everyone to despise him. That’s why I had Wang Mo, Zhou Haifeng, and my uncle help fra him."
"With my Xu Family’s power, framing a poor student like him is child’s play. Why? Why didn’t he just get expelled quietly? Why did he have to fight back? He deserves to die!!"
Under the power of Gao Wen’s Hypnosis, Xu Gang spilled out all of his innermost thoughts.
"So that’s the kind of person he is!!"
"I used to actually like him. You really can’t judge a book by its cover!"
"..."
The rest of the students murmured amongst themselves, looking at Xu Gang with gazes full of contempt.
Xu Chenghai’s face changed drastically. He looked at Gao Wen, his eyes filled with Fear, and scread, "What kind of monster are you? What Evil Art did you use? What kind of Evil Art did you use to make Xu Gang like this? I’m calling the police! I’ll have you arrested!"
Gao Wen smiled faintly. "How is this an Evil Art? It’s just Hypnosis. I’m a master hypnotist who assists the police with their cases, and I’ve never failed. Principal Zhang, things are clear now. You can deal with these students. I personally recomnd you expel them."
Zhou Haifeng’s face instantly went deathly pale. If he were expelled, he wouldn’t be able to go to high school. His future would be ruined.
Zhang Ke said coolly, "Captain Gao Wen, whether or not we expel students is not your decision to make. This is an internal school matter."
Just then, Zhang Ke’s phone rang.
Zhang Ke answered the phone. "Director Liu, what can I do for you?"
Director Liu said, "Zhang, is there a student at your school who was frad for stealing money?"
Zhang Ke, startled, glanced deeply at Shu Feng and replied, "Yes."
Director Liu said, "A very important person has weighed in, and they want you to handle this matter strictly. All students involved are to be expelled. Any problem with that?"p>Zhang Ke hesitated, unable to bear the thought. "Is there no room for leniency? If we expel them, their futures will be ruined."
Director Liu’s voice went cold before he hung up. "Were they worried about ruining soone else’s future when they frad him? Why are you worrying about scum like that? Zhang, for the sake of our friendship of over a decade, I’ll give you a piece of advice. If you don’t deal with them, you’ll be the one who gets dealt with. And a new principal will be appointed to take your place. Think it over carefully."
Zhang Ke looked at Shu Feng, his mind reeling in shock. ’Just who is this Shu Feng? How does he have so much influence!’
