"What else is there to say now?"

"Facts speak louder than any eloquence!"

Hou Ruiquan frowned and loudly scolded the four people.

Seeing Peng Hongfei being humiliated at this moment, Liu Yuwen couldn't help but feel proud.

At this moment, several people were also panicked by the situation in front of them.

"This... this is simply impossible?"

Kong Runlong narrated softly, "We folded our quilts neatly before leaving in the morning. I didn't fold them well, so the dormitory head and Peng Hongfei helped me fold them. Because of this, the three of us didn't even have time to eat breakfast..."

“It’s quite well edited.”

Hou Ruiquan laughed contemptuously.

"I think you guys got up late. You were afraid of being late, so you just wanted to get away with it, right? I didn't expect that I would come to check today..."

"No wonder you were so upset when I asked Liao Dan to take a rest. You hated yourself for not thinking of this excuse, right?"

"Now that I think about it, it seems that the people in your dormitory were the most noisy just now!"

He slapped hats on them one by one. Those students who had never experienced society had never seen such things before and they were so anxious that their faces turned red.

Wu Shiming quickly raised his hand at this time.

"Report to the instructor."

Hou Ruiquan looked at him.

"What's wrong?"

"I, I definitely folded it this morning because I was the first one to leave the dormitory, so I suspect someone messed up my quilt after I left..."

"???"

Peng Hongfei and Kong Runlong both looked at him in disbelief, and Peng Hongfei questioned.

"Old Wu, what are you talking about ? You said we deliberately hurt you?"

Wu Shiming didn't want to completely break off relations, he just wanted to find an opportunity to clear himself out, so he said embarrassedly.

"I, I didn't say it was you..."

"Bullshit, didn't you just order us?"

"Did I tell you your name?"

At this time, the situation was completely chaotic.

In addition, several people panicked at the beginning. At this moment, not only were they confused and puzzled about the whole incident, but when they calmed down and thought about it deeply, they also felt a chill to the heart.

"Be quiet, everyone." Hou Ruiquan shouted.

"This time, I was thinking that I would only punish each of you by making you do 200 squats."

"I didn't expect your attitude to be so bad. You didn't even take the initiative to admit your mistakes. This makes me very disappointed."

"It seems that just squatting is not enough. Go back and each of you write me an 800-word self-criticism and read it in front of the whole class tomorrow."

"Also, I will focus on checking the quilts in your dormitory every day..."

A feeling of grievance and depression permeated the three of them.

Peng Hongfei clenched his fists tightly and his back teeth made a crackling sound because he had suffered an inexplicable injustice.

"Did you hear that?"

When Peng Hongfei heard Hou Ruiquan's question, just when he wanted to curse, Xu Cheng on the side spoke up.

"Report to the instructor."

Hou Ruiquan saw that he was the least noisy one, so his tone of voice became lighter.

"What's wrong? Do you have anything else to say?"

"I want to call the police."

"???"

The attention of everyone in the dormitory was now on Xu Cheng. No one had expected that an issue of folding quilts would lead to him having to call the police.

Hou Ruiquan frowned.

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

"Does it really matter that you just fold the quilt and involve the police?"

"Why don't you call the police and see if they will send someone to help you?"

Kong Runlong also pulled Xu Cheng's sleeve.

"Head, how about... forget it..."

Xu Cheng still maintained a neither humble nor arrogant attitude and spoke loudly.

"I'm calling the police, not because of the quilt-making issue, but because my personal safety has been threatened."

As soon as he said this, it was like a bolt of lightning striking everyone.

Now not only Hou Ruiquan, but also the remaining three roommates were looking at him in confusion.

Has your personal safety been threatened?

Say...what to say?

Hou Ruiquan was stunned for several seconds before asking.

"What threats have you received? Are you confused?"

At this moment, it was not only him, the remaining three people, and Liu Yuwen, all felt that Xu Cheng was a little confused.

Isn’t it just that the quilt was not made?

How is personal safety threatened?

but.

Xu Cheng was naturally not confused.

He is very sober.

In his opinion, Wu Shiming had already revealed the truth of the whole matter.

It was obvious that someone had deliberately messed up the quilt in their dormitory.

As for who this "suspect" is?

It’s actually not hard to guess at all.

The first suspect, Liao Dan.

Xu Cheng had long been thinking about the old grudge between her and Peng Hongfei and Wu Shiming, and this was her motive.

Plus, she suddenly came so late today, who could say for sure whether she had somehow run into her dormitory and messed up everyone's quilts.

As for why she brought everyone in, including him and Kong Runlong...it's possible that she was trying to confuse the public.

The second suspect is Hou Ruiquan.

He was the person in charge of the check and could enter and leave their dormitory at will, so it was entirely possible that he committed theft.

As for his motives, it's hard to say whether he was influenced by Liao Dan or was so angry for the woman he loved.

The third suspect is Liu Yuwen.

He had always been at odds with several people in his dormitory, and since he accompanied them during the dormitory inspection this time, it was natural for him to take action.

The fourth suspect...

Although I don't want to doubt it, I will list Xiao Wu here for now.

After all, apart from the few people listed by Xu Cheng, the only ones who could enter the dormitory were him, Peng Hongfei and Kong Runlong, and he had no proof of his presence in front of them, so who knew if it was a surprise attack.

Of course, he wouldn't say such speculation out loud, he just revealed a little.

"Because I folded my quilt this morning, but it's messed up now. I have reason to suspect that someone who can come and go in our dormitory at will deliberately messed it up, and this person may even have an antisocial personality."

"This time it was the quilt, who knows what else might be mixed into the water dispenser next time. I'm really worried about my personal safety."

Hou Ruiquan frowned when he heard this.

He thought something was wrong.

This kid is just being stubborn in a different way.

"Student Xu, don't think about who is persecuting you. Let's talk about facts and evidence. Don't talk nonsense here and destroy the unity of the entire dormitory."

This is the crux of the problem.

Speak of facts and evidence.

Xu Cheng saw through the entire plan, but it was a dead end that you could not escape even if you saw through it.

I ate one bowl of noodles, and people said I ate two bowls of noodles.

Who knows how many bowls of noodles you ate.

Who cares how many bowls of noodles you eat?

Fortunately, by some strange coincidence, he left a receipt, a receipt that no one paid much attention to .

"I wasted half a day with you guys and delayed my training plan."

Hou Ruiquan glanced at his watch and was about to call back his troops when Xu Cheng spoke again.

"Reporting to the instructor, I have evidence that there are people with anti-social and anti-human tendencies lurking around me."

"I don't have time to waste with you. You're a stubborn kid, aren't you? I'm telling you, if you keep doing this, it's not just a problem of work style, it's a problem of ideology and morality!"

Hou Ruiquan's words directly raised the seriousness of the situation. Even Peng Hongfei, who had just been unconvinced, was afraid that Xu Cheng would continue to make the matter bigger.

During the silence, Xu Cheng said calmly.

“I have photos of the folded quilt.”

" You can was taken. It was 7:21 this morning."

“You can also tell from the different styles of quilt covers in the photos that they are our quilts.”

"Well, the quilt is already folded, so why should we mess it up ourselves?"

Xu Cheng held up his cell phone and spoke slowly.

Kong Runlong and Peng Hongfei's eyes suddenly lit up, and they finally saw great hope.

“Yes, we took pictures!”

"There's evidence! Here's the evidence!"

Hou Ruiquan stared at Xu Cheng's phone for a few seconds.

"Time... um... the quilt at the end of bed number two, number three, number four..."

The photos were so detailed that he couldn't find any flaws to point out.

Things suddenly went beyond his expectations.

He never thought that someone could be so bored that he would fold a quilt and take a photo in the midst of his busy schedule.

His face was gloomy and he was silent for a long time before he managed to find a word to say.

"…Since everything was folded, why did it get messed up again?"

"Instructor, this is the crux of the matter. I suspect that someone, even someone from our dormitory, has an anti-human and anti-social personality. I request that the police investigate."

“…”

Xu Cheng was making a lot of noise, fearing that the matter would not get out of hand, and kept wanting to call the police.

This gave Hou Ruiquan a headache.

"Student Xu...if you do this, it will have a negative impact on the school. Do you understand...you have to consider the overall situation..."

"Let me tell you this. I promise you, I will help you investigate this matter later."

"As for what happened just now... um..."

"Since there are photos to prove it, it seems that there is indeed something hidden behind what happened today. I think we should just forget about the punishment..."

Hou Ruiquan talked a lot, and Xu Cheng just smiled and stopped making trouble.

Otherwise he would be willing to let it go.

But he didn't want to alert the enemy.

After all, he would always feel uncomfortable if he didn't find out who was responsible.

Moreover, this kind of thing is best dealt with when everyone thinks it is over. Then, you can investigate it secretly and finally root it out completely, thus avoiding a lot of trouble and obstacles.

Hou Ruiquan felt a little hot. He touched his neck and found that he was sweating profusely.

Feeling embarrassed, he looked at the photos in Xu Cheng's phone again and again.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up.

Finally, I found a flaw in the three photos!

“That’s not right…”

He pondered, "You only have photos of beds 2, 3, and 4 here, but no photos of bed 1, right?"

“…”

In the crowd, Wu Shiming shrank his neck.

He thought he had escaped, but how come the blame came back to him?

"Instructor, I, I folded it too. They all took pictures, but I didn't..."

"snort."

Hou Ruiquan finally found an outlet to vent his anger, and naturally had no intention of letting it go, so he snorted coldly.

"I think you are the one who messed with this matter. You didn't fold it yourself, but you made the whole dormitory implicated."

Wu Shiming felt as if he had lost his parents. He looked around but could not see any roommate who would take the initiative to speak up for him.

“I, I…”

At this moment, Hou Ruiquan's cell phone suddenly rang.

Although it was an unfamiliar call, I was afraid it was a message from a leader, so I quickly picked up the phone.

"Hello? Who is this?"

Several people didn't know what was said on the phone, but Hou Ruiquan's face turned pale when he heard it.

He was silent for a while, then spoke.

"……I see."

Then he hung up the phone and glanced at Wu Shiming, who seemed a little desperate just now.

"Forget it. Today is just a training for you. I won't punish you for now. If you don't learn your lesson tomorrow, today's punishment will still count."

"Return to the team."

Several people returned to the playground.

Along the way, there was naturally a lot of speculation about what kind of phone call Hou Ruiquan had received that made him willing to let Wu Shiming go.

When the people in the class saw them coming back, they came over to inquire about the situation.

Xu Cheng met Lin Wanzhou's gaze and saw that she was asking questions. Xu Cheng nodded to indicate that he was fine. Only then did Lin Wanzhou feel relieved.

Hou Ruiquan stood in front of the rearranged team and explained.

"Today, considering that this is your first day learning to fold quilts, I will not continue to investigate or punish you. I hope you can behave well tomorrow."

"Turn right and march in step..."

There was not much time left in the morning's training, so after marching for a while, Hou Ruiquan announced the end of the training.

I don’t know if Wu Shiming is too embarrassed to see them. He hasn’t been seen since the group disbanded.

With yesterday's experience, Peng Hongfei and Kong Runlong quickly ran to the cafeteria to get their meals.

Xu Cheng did not go to the cafeteria. He asked Kong Runlong to bring him some food. He went to the school fruit shop and bought a bag of fruit.

After the three of them agreed on a place to meet, they rushed to the dormitory building together.

"I'm so hungry. I haven't eaten since early morning. I almost fainted during training." Peng Hongfei said with a groan.

Kong Runlong said embarrassedly.

"I'm sorry, Brother Peng, Dormitory Head, I've delayed your breakfast. How about I treat you?"

At this time, the three of them happened to pass by the apartment management office on the first floor. Seeing the social management aunt pushing the door out of the management office with a lunch box, Xu Cheng's face immediately changed and he asked loudly to Peng Hongfei.

"Oh, what's going on? I clearly remember seeing it when I left home this morning."

"???"

Peng Hongfei was stunned.

"What, what happened? What did you see?"

Xu Cheng's face was filled with anxiety at this time. "I took my wallet with me when I left home this morning, but I couldn't find it when I was paying just now."

"Lost your wallet?"

Kong Runlong immediately became worried for Xu Cheng.

"Head, think carefully, where did you lose it?"

The commotion here also attracted the dormitory manager to stop and take a look.

Xu Cheng glanced in the direction of the dormitory manager and frowned.

"I don't know either. Maybe I took it out with me when I took out my pocket to get toilet paper this morning."

"You are too careless, Headmaster."

"Yes, Lao Xu, how much money did you install?"

Xu Cheng looked like he wanted to cry but had no tears.

"My living expenses for the past two months are all in it."

"My mother told me since I was little that children from poor families should become independent early."

“My family’s conditions are not good.”
