What to Do When Someone Steals Your Destiny? I'll Just Kill Her-Chapter 24: She is the Virgin
Chapter 24
Her gaze turned to Kong Lian, her eyes narrowing slightly.
No, it can't be that simple. 𝘧𝑟𝓮𝓮𝓌𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝓵.𝒸ℴ𝑚
There must be something she had overlooked.
Given her understanding of her, Kong Lian would never target Guo Tongwen for no reason. She must have some purpose in mind, trying to achieve her own goal through this incident.
No matter what Kong Lian's purpose was, the end result was aimed at her.
Stealing things → Guo Tongwen → Herself.
The nature of stealing was vicious → Guo Tongwen and she were at odds with each other → How to make it backfire on her?
An answer came to mind immediately.
Some students seemed to have thought of something and spoke up, "Teacher Zhao, during P.E. class, I saw Guo Tongwen going into the teaching building."
"That's right, that's right, she did leave for a bit."
"I also saw her going to the teaching building."
With these testimonies, her guilt was basically confirmed.
"I didn't steal it, I really didn't do it."
No matter how Guo Tongwen defended herself, no one believed her. People were more willing to believe what they saw with their own eyes.
Ren Ran noticed Kong Lian's raised chin, and spoke first before she could, "I believe her."
Her sudden voice made Kong Lian's words stuck in her throat. Everyone looked at her in surprise.
Facing the astonished gazes, Ren Ran said word for word, "I believe Guo Tongwen did not steal the money."
Guo Tongwen looked at her in disbelief.
Zhao Yi was so shocked that she almost dropped her jaw.
Damn, what was Ren Ran doing, actually speaking up for Guo Tongwen at this time?
It was common knowledge that Guo Tongwen and Ren Ran did not get along. Although the two had never fought openly, there had been minor conflicts between them.
At this time, even those who were on good terms didn't dare speak up, yet the one who didn't get along with her spoke up. This was much more convincing, not to mention the speaker was Ren Ran.
Kong Lian was dumbfounded, staring blankly at her.
What was going on with her?
How could she speak up for Guo Tongwen?
Damn! Was Ren Ran an angel? The two were not on good terms, yet she acted saintly and spoke up for the other party. She must be sick!
Thinking that she had stolen her lines, Kong Lian was furious.
This girl was so hard to deal with!
Tan Jia spoke up, "What evidence do you have that can prove the money wasn't stolen by her?"
This spoke the mind of everyone present. Guo Tongwen herself was also puzzled.
"It's simple, report to the police and collect fingerprints," Ren Ran stepped forward and glanced at the banknotes. "From the time of the incident until now, Guo Tongwen hasn't touched the money. The people who have come into contact with the money and could have left complete fingerprints on it are probably three people - Tan Jia and Teacher Zhao, and the person who framed Guo Tongwen."
Mao Zhen raised doubts, "The banknotes have passed through many hands, there must be a lot of fingerprints on them. For this small amount, the police usually don't want to spend a lot of manpower and resources to do this."
This was true.
"Let me check the situation of fingerprints on banknotes a minute ago. If the environment is low temperature and dry, they can persist for a long time. If it's high temperature and humid, they won't last that long. Complete fingerprints on paper only remain for a few hours. Incomplete ones remain for varying lengths up to years."
Ren Ran's mind was clear and she spoke clearly, "We are in the south, and the current temperature is high, so other people's prints won't remain for long. It's been over a month since the class fees were handed in, so this method is feasible."
"As for the police being unwilling to expend manpower and resources, you can rest assured. The Yaxing Group, which owns pharmaceutical companies, I can arrange for professionals to collect fingerprints."
Everyone was dumbfounded.
In this short time she had already considered the follow up steps.
Ren Ran went on, "Some may feel I'm making a mountain out of a molehill, but in my opinion, this matter is very serious. This is not simply a theft, it is framing and implicating others, the nature is extremely serious."
"If we don't clear Guo Tongwen's name today, she will have to bear the reputation of a thief. For her, this is not only the destruction of her reputation, but also emotional trauma. The slightest carelessness may lead to depression."
"Finding the mastermind is not only for Guo Tongwen, but also for everyone present. Just think, there is such a sinister person lurking among us, ready to take action. Who knows what else she might do in the future, and who the next target will be?"
What started out as a simple theft had been elevated by Ren Ran to an extremely dangerous level.
Some people kept nodding, "Ren Ran is right, we must find the mastermind."
"That's right. We can't let her hide among us. Who knows who the next victim will be."
"Let's report to the police."
"Ren Ran, we're relying on you if the police don't collect fingerprints."
Zhao Yi said, "Right, send it for examination. We must find the mastermind."
Teacher Zhao looked at the excited students and felt somewhat headache.
How had he not noticed before that this girl had such a glib tongue?
Kong Lian was furious with Ren Ran!
How could this girl be so hard to deal with!
Teacher Zhao looked at Guo Tongwen, "What about you?"
"Teacher Zhao, I want to report to the police to clear my name. I didn't steal it, I really didn't. I don't know who is so vicious trying to frame me. No matter who it is, I must find her and get to the bottom of this." Guo Tongwen's eyes were determined.
Ren Ran's words gave her enough confidence. She was genuinely grateful to her from the bottom of her heart.
Thinking of how she had looked down on Ren Ran in the past because she always scored higher than her, yet at the moment she was falsely accused, Ren Ran was the first to stand up for her regardless of past grievances. She was deeply moved and remorseful.
She wished she could travel back in time and slap herself twice on the face.
The generosity and broad mind that Ren Ran had shown was beyond her.
She was not as good as her, she admitted wholeheartedly.
Tan Jia's eyes flickered, "No need to report to the police, right? Once it's reported, it will inevitably alarm the whole school. Our class would be..."
Ren Ran's staunch support and Guo Tongwen's determination had convinced most people seven or eight parts out of ten.
Zhao Yi said, "Yes, send it for examination. We must find the mastermind."
Seeing how things were developing, Kong Lian was both angry and anxious.
According to her original plan, when Guo Tongwen was questioned by everyone, she would stand up and speak for her, while providing technical assistance at the same time.
With the money in her hands, she could simply tell everyone there were Ren Ran's fingerprints on it.
She had no grievances with Ren Ran, no reason to frame her.
Everyone would surely feel that Ren Ran was taking revenge on Guo Tongwen. After all, the two did not get along before, so she had the motive.
With Guo Tongwen's personality, she would surely harbor extreme hatred for Ren Ran, while also being grateful to her.
This move could completely achieve killing three birds with one stone.
She would win people's hearts by appearing kind. At the same time, smear Ren Ran, making people feel she was narrow-minded. Finally she could also turn Guo Tongwen into a pawn in her hands.
In the future, whatever plans she had, she could easily get Guo Tongwen to carry them out in her stead, while she reaped the profits.
