Chapter 436: I Believe in Justice
In '98, desktop computers weren't very common, let alone laptops.
Even at Huaqing University, it is quite face-saving for the average student to have a laptop.
"Who is so unfortunate that their laptops have been stolen?"
Ye Yi asked politely.
"Lu Zihan's computer from the Department of Finance was stolen, but it was Ma Xiaoli from the same class who lost her computer," the girl said, "Ma Xiaoli borrowed her computer and took it back to the dormitory to do homework, went out halfway to answer a phone call, and when she came back, she found that the computer was lost." β
"So ......"
"You think this thing is weird, right?"
Ye Yi nodded, parted the crowd, and entered the dormitory.
In the dormitory, Ma Xiaoli was sitting on the edge of the bed choking and sobbing: "...... What am I going to do...... I...... I lost Lu Zihan's computer, and there is still her subject in the computer! β
Beside her, it was the dormitory teacher and Yi Qiuling and Lu Zihan who rushed to hear the news.
"If you just lose the computer, it's nothing, it's nothing more than buying another computer and returning it to me," Yi Qiuling said, "but the computer has the research data that she took a whole month to collect, and half of the research papers......
"Yes, I can't wait to offer a reward of 10,000 yuan now, just begging the other party to send my computer back!"
Lu Zihan touched his chin in pain.
I have to hand in my homework in three days, and even if I buy a new computer overnight, it's too late.
"I'm sorry, I really didn't mean to...... I didn't know it would ...... Will ......"
Ma Xiaoli kept shedding tears.
Xu Linlin and Liu Jianyi also expressed sympathy.
Everyone is a student, and we understand the pain of losing your homework book the day before handing in your homework.
ββ¦β¦ Now what! Lu Zihan smiled bitterly and said, "If I tell the professor that I can't hand in my homework because I lost my notebook, will he just fail me!" β
"Now I can only give it a try."
"I will testify for you in front of Professor Zhu."
Yi Qiuling and the teacher both comforted Lu Zihan together.
Ma Xiaoli kept crying and said, "...... I'm sorry, it's all my fault...... If only I hadn't been so careless......"
"Forget it, the thing has been stolen, and it is impossible to get it back in three days. Now we have nothing to do but accept our fate! β
Lu Zihan looked desperate.
Ye Yi frowned, she didn't see any traces of broken wealth on the faces of Lu Zihan and Ma Xiaoli, especially Ma Xiaoli's face, which faintly flashed with cunning and scheming.
As the saying goes, the face is born from the heart, people's faces are not static, if you are always a traitor, the pleasing face will gradually become treacherous and cunning, if you do good deeds for a long time, the naturally vicious face will gradually have the taste of kindness and kindness.
When I first saw Ma Xiaoli in the dormitory, her face was not good but not bad, ordinary and common scheming and calculating women, even after the last big quarrel in the dormitory, she only felt a little more angry and cunning when she looked at Ma Xiaoli's face.
But todayβ
Ye Yi saw malice on Ma Xiaoli's face!
When she found this, she squeezed into the crowd and pretended not to know, "What's going on?" Why are you ......?"
"Someone lost something in the dorm, it's a laptop!"
The dormitory teacher looked at Ye Yi sternly.
"So serious!"
Ye Yi made a frightened expression.
The dormitory teacher said, "Don't put valuables in a conspicuous position in the future, and check your personal belongings quickly, this thief can't steal just once, steal one thing!" β
"The teacher is right! Hurry back and check it out, everyone! β
Yi Qiuling called on everyone to disperse.
Ma Xiaoli was still in the pain of losing Lu Zihan's computer, and after Yi Qiuling left with Lu Zihan, she still sat on the edge of the bed and cried lowly.
Xu Linlin had a soft personality, and when she saw her crying and uncomfortable, she took the initiative to sit next to her and comforted: "Don't cry!" Keep crying and your eyes will hurt! β
"Yes, you didn't mean to lose Lu's notebook, don't be too yourself." Liu Jianyi said, "Go back and save some money to buy a notebook of the same style for classmate Lu and compensate her!" β
ββ¦β¦ Uh-huh...... I will pay for a new notebook for Mr. Lu...... I'm just uncomfortable...... I feel like I'm too useless...... And also...... And also...... Feel sorry for her...... She was about to hand in her courseware homework, but I hurt ......"
Ma Xiaoli's voice choked again.
Xu Linlin comforted her and said to Ye Yi: "You can also come over and help persuade her!" This time......"
"This time she is to blame," Ye Yi said, "the computer was not lost, it was hidden in the cabinet......
"What did you say!"
The three people in the dormitory screamed together.
Ma Xiaoli even asked Ye Yi with eyes that were swollen like goldfish: "Why do you hate me so much!" Even at times like this, you have to spread rumors about me! If Lu Zihan's laptop is really in my cabinet, why did you ...... just now?"
"I only said the laptop was in the cupboard, not yours."
Ye Yi gave Xu Linlin a look and asked her to close the dormitory door.
Then, she clasped her hands together, leaned over the bed frame, and said, "Please open your cabinet!" β
"Okay, open it!"
Ma Xiaoli threw off the cabinet angrily: "Just look at it!" Look closely! β
Xu Linlin and Liu Jianyi also opened the cabinet, although they didn't know why Ye Yi wanted them to open the cabinet.
The cabinets of the three people are all clean, except for clothes and bedding, there is nothing that should not appear in the cabinet of college students, let alone Lu Zihan's laptop!
Now, only Ye Yi's cabinet was left unopened.
Ma Xiaoli looked at Ye Yi: "Look, we have already listened to your words and opened the cabinet, should you also open the cabinet for us to see!" β
"Okay!"
Ye Yi smiled slightly and took out the key.
Before officially opening the cabinet, she asked Ma Xiaoli a question: "When did you lose your laptop?" β
"This afternoon, it should be between five and six o'clock, and the call is from Lu Zihan. I'm in a hurry to catch up with my homework these days, and I asked Lu Zihan to bring me dinner, and after receiving the call, I went downstairs to pick her up, and when I came back, I found that the computer was gone! Why do you ask this? β
Ma Xiaoli replied very cheerfully, obviously prepared.
Ye Yi smiled and said, "Just ask, it's not interesting!" β
"In that case, open the cabinet quickly! We're all waiting! β
Ma Xiaoli began to urge Ye Yi.
Ye Yi glanced at the two people in the same dormitory: "No matter what you see in my cabinet, please believe me!" β
"I believe in you!" Xu Linlin said with a simple face.
Liu Jianyi said: "I believe in justice. β
