Chapter 136: Investigation Team

Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

In each grade, there were only a handful of top students, and Li Fang was aware of exceptional students like Wen Yu, who consistently held the top position in their cohort. However, it was only today that she discovered the biological sibling relationship between Wen Yu and Wen Nian.

Wen Yu possessed a low-key and sensible nature, accompanied by excellent academic performance. As a teacher, it was natural for Li Fang to hold a favorable bias towards such a student. Consequently, she had developed a positive impression of Wen Nian as well. Subconsciously, Li Fang believed that if the Wen couple had raised such a commendable son, their daughter would likely possess similar qualities.

Wen Nian had temporarily strayed from the right path during her first year of high school, but now she had managed to correct her course and return to the right track.

After viewing numerous reports about the alleged interview, Wen Xing and Zhou Mei were filled with agitation. Zhou Mei eagerly grabbed Li Fang’s arm and exclaimed, “Teacher Li, you must believe Wen Nian! The truth is completely different from what those reports have depicted!”

Wen Xing’s anger surged within him, causing his hands to tremble with indignation. “This is shameless!” he exclaimed vehemently. “Everything they claimed in those reports is a complete fabrication! During the interview today, we never uttered any of those things!”

Wen Nian rushed forward, attempting to calm down her agitated father. “Dad, please don’t get too worked up! The more agitated we appear, the more satisfaction they will derive from it. They might even seize the opportunity to launch further attacks and accuse us of being embarrassed and defensive!” Observing the earnest response from the Wen family, Li Fang felt a growing sense of confidence. Compared to external sources, she was inherently inclined to trust her own student. “I understand that you have seen the online reports. If this were about Wen Nian during her first year, I might have been more inclined to believe them. However, considering the remarkable changes in Wen Nian this semester…”

Li Fang stared intently at Wen Nian. “Wen Nian, I want to hear it from you.”

Wen Nian had mentally prepared herself to face doubt from people other than her family and close friends. While she acknowledged Li Fang as a responsible teacher, she understood that the detailed nature of the online claims might lead Li Fang to have suspicions. If Li Fang genuinely doubted her, Wen Nian wouldn’t blame her for not immediately trusting her. After all, she had nearly tarnished her image as a diligent student.

It was precisely due to Wen Nian’s mental preparedness that she felt deeply moved when she witnessed Li Fang’s willingness to give her the benefit of the doubt. Despite the doubts surrounding her, Li Fang’s decision to offer her a chance stirred a sense of gratitude within Wen Nian.

Wen Nian’s eyes flickered with a hint of determination. She offered a slight bow to Li Fang, her supportive head teacher. “Thank you for believing in me, Ms. Li. I will show you something that will help you understand.”

Wen Nian retrieved a video from her phone and handed it to Li Fang. “Teacher, this is the surveillance footage captured by my family’s security camera today.” Coincidentally, the Wen family had recently installed the surveillance cameras in their home. The decision was prompted by Wen Nian’s filming activities in the capital and Wen Yu’s upcoming competition, which would take him away from home. Concerned about leaving Zhou Mei alone, Wen Xing had purchased and installed the cameras, strategically positioning them in the living room to capture a clear view of the front door.

Li Fang watched the video starting from the time when the Wen Family was blocked from leaving the house until the time when Wen Nian delayed the flight to the capital because she was worried for Zhou Mei’s safety.

As Li Fang realized that her trust had been well placed, a sense of relief and satisfaction washed over her, evident in the gratified smile that adorned her face. However, her anger quickly surfaced as she voiced her frustrations, “These reporters are utterly unprofessional! They took your words out of context and deliberately distorted them. If it weren’t for the fortunate installation of surveillance cameras by your family, you would have been defenseless against this malicious attack. You are forced to bear this unjust loss!”

Seeing this, Wen Nian said firmly to Li Fang, “Teacher Li, I’ve decided to call the police!”

Li Fang paused briefly, nodding in agreement. “I stand firmly behind you. 1 visited your home today because this issue has escalated far beyond what is acceptable. The Education Bureau’s leadership is already aware of the situation. Earlier this afternoon, I personally contacted the principal. Without this video evidence that proves your innocence, Wen Nian would have undoubtedly faced expulsion from the school.”

“This is nothing short of ruining a student’s life! These individuals are shamelessly prioritizing website click rates and generating traffic at the expense of someone’s well-being. They have even gone as far as attacking Wen Nian’s character, attempting to destroy her reputation. Their actions are nothing short of ruthless! It’s as if they want to utterly destroy her!”

In that moment, Li Fang realized that this whole debacle had been fueled by idle internet users spreading rumors and creating a massive uproar. She had not anticipated that another one of her students would be caught up in the turmoil.

Wen Nian’s voice was resolute as she spoke, her gaze fixed on the ground. “I simply seek justice. Those who spread rumors must face the consequences of their actions. I want them to realize that the internet is not a lawless realm where they can freely harm others without repercussions.”

With their resolve firm, the five of them wasted no time and quickly hailed a taxi to head straight to the police station, determined to report the case. They understood the importance of taking legal action against those responsible for spreading false rumors and causing harm.

Given the gravity of the situation, which involved minors and had far-reaching implications for the reputation of all middle schools in Hai City, the leaders of the Education Bureau accorded it significant attention. They promptly initiated communication with the police station’s leadership, discussing the details of the case over the phone.

Upon reviewing the compelling video evidence provided by Wen Nian, the leaders of the police station swiftly made a crucial decision. Recognizing the significance and urgency of the matter, they immediately organized themselves into four dedicated police teams, each tasked with specific responsibilities related to the case.

As it was a special investigation, the reporters who went to Wen Nian’s house to interview in the morning were quickly arrested at the police station.

After two hours of separate interrogation, the team leader in charge of this case, Officer Liu, came out of the interrogation room..
