Chapter 298: Chapter 298: Don’t worry, I’ll be back soon Chapter 298: Chapter 298: Don’t worry, I’ll be back soon Hearing the policeman’s words, everyone in the classroom gasped in shock.
—Soone reported Huo Yu??
In an instant, Lu Sheng clenched her fists.
Just now, when Huo Yu had hacked into Director Liu’s computer and retrieved the file from the recycle bin, Fu Chen was beside himself with anger. He shouted that what Huo Yu was doing was illegal, an invasion of privacy, and said he was going to call the police to catch him.
But from that ti until just now, Fu Chen had been confronting her the whole ti and hadn’t touched his phone at all, so it couldn’t have been Fu Chen who called the police.
But if it was soone else… Everyone was classmates here, and Huo Yu had always kept a low profile in class, never conflicting with anyone. Nobody should have had a reason to deliberately report him.
Then who made the call?
At this mont, Lu Sheng seed to suddenly rember sothing, her eyes sharply turning to look at Tang Yiyi, who was sitting below.
Earlier, when Fu Chen had rushed up to the podium, Lu Sheng had caught a glimpse of soone leaving through the classroom’s back door in her peripheral vision. The situation at the ti didn’t allow her to think too much of it.
But now that she thought about it, that person must have been Tang Yiyi.
It must have been her who took the opportunity to leave the classroom and call the police, getting Huo Yu reported.
Seeing Lu Sheng’s gaze suddenly cross the crowd and look at herself, Tang Yiyi didn’t show any guilt or evasion; instead, she tilted her head with a sowhat triumphant lift of her chin.
Her eyes seed to be telling Lu Sheng, what good does it do to prove your innocence now?
You might be off the hook, but Huo Yu, the criminal for your sake, is about to be taken away by the police.
The kind of hatred born from crazy jealousy had long twisted Tang Yiyi’s heart.
As long as she could make Lu Sheng suffer, even if there were no benefits for her, she felt extrely pleased!
Lu Sheng rarely used Soul Power to harm others.
One reason was to avoid drawing suspicion and exposing her identity. The second reason was that humans and Demons were inherently unequal, and she didn’t want to bully the weak. If she did, how would she be any different from those harmful Demons?
But at this mont, seeing the police waiting at the classroom door and then Tang Yiyi’s smug, provocative expression, Lu Sheng felt unprecedented anger.
The next second, a wisp of invisible Soul Power shot into Tang Yiyi’s body like an arrow.
Sitting in her chair, Tang Yiyi was still smiling, thinking she finally got the better of Lu Sheng, delighted beyond words.
But the very next second, she suddenly felt like she couldn’t move her body, as if soone had taken control of it.
What the…
Before she could react, a sudden intense pain that felt like it was crushing her internal organs erupted within her body!
Ah—!!!!!
In an instant, Tang Yiyi felt like there was a at grinder operating inside her body, grinding her organs and flesh, and even threatening to break her bones!
What is going on?!!!
It hurts! It hurts so much! She was dying of pain!
Why couldn’t she move? Why couldn’t she make a sound!
Was she possessed by a Ghost in broad daylight?
However, Tang Yiyi wanted to struggle but couldn’t move at all, and wanted to scream but couldn’t make a sound.
Her eyes widened so much that they seed about to pop out, and then she blacked out from the pain.
But the next second, every pore in her skin felt a stabbing pain, brutally waking her up!
Tang Yiyi was going mad, despairingly mad.
In just a few tens of seconds, she experienced what it felt like to prefer death to suffering!
If there had been a gun in front of her at that mont, she would have preferred to shoot herself rather than continue in pain!
The people around her were completely unaware of Tang Yiyi’s abnormality; their focus was on the police at the door.
And amidst Tang Yiyi’s despair, she felt Lu Sheng’s cold and sharp gaze shooting straight at her, a gaze that seed to carry a stern warning.
The mont she t Lu Sheng’s eyes, Tang Yiyi couldn’t help but widen her own in shock.
What did Lu Sheng’s gaze an?
She knows she’s in pain now?? Could it be that her condition is related to ?
The next second, Huo Yu, standing in the far corner of the classroom, stood up from his seat in response to the police’s questioning and said, “I am Huo Yu.”
The mont Huo Yu stood up and spoke, Lu Sheng shifted his gaze from her and looked towards Huo Yu.
The excruciating pain that had been tornting Tang Yiyi suddenly disappeared.
Tang Yiyi felt like she had just died and co back to life, gasping for air in her seat, her face covered in uncontrollable tears and snot, her body shaking like a sieve.
Lin Ya, her deskmate, turned her head at the commotion, startled: “Yiyi, what’s wrong with you! Why are you crying?”
“Your face is so pale, and you’re breaking out in cold sweat, are you feeling unwell??”
“…I, I’m fine.”
Tang Yiyi’s lips trembled as she spoke.
That pain just now, it couldn’t have been an illusion.
Was that look in Lu Sheng’s eyes… was it caused by Lu Sheng?
Is this Lu Sheng… a human or a ghost??
For the first ti, Tang Yiyi felt what fear truly was in her heart.
She really feared another bout like that; she’d rather be killed outright!!
—
Seeing that Huo Yu had volunteered to stand up, the policeman at the door said to him, “Alright then, co with us to the police station.”
However, just as Huo Yu started towards the front of the classroom, he was suddenly held back by Lu Sheng, who looked directly at the policeman: “Hold on a mont, officer, the incident just now was my…”
Lu Sheng intended to say that the person who had hacked into the admissions office system and Director Liu’s computer was actually her. Huo Yu rely complied with her request to project the display in the classroom.
Huo Yu was in such trouble simply because he was trying to help her find evidence and prove her innocence.
She could not let her friend be taken to the police station for helping her; she would rather take the bla herself.
But before Lu Sheng could finish, Huo Yu seed to have already read all her thoughts.
He looked at her with calm, dark eyes and shook his head.
“I’m fine.”
Huo Yu spoke as if hesitating for a mont, and yet as if he had made so kind of decision. He raised his hand to touch Lu Sheng’s hair gently.
His voice was difficult to detect, but carried a gentleness for her that he had never shown to others, “Don’t worry, I will be back soon.”
This was the first ti Huo Yu had made such an intimate gesture toward Lu Sheng.
Even though he had been by her side before, even as deskmates, he had never gotten too close to her.
Lu Sheng was taken aback for a mont.
eting Huo Yu’s gaze, seeing the indifference and confidence in his eyes, she roughly guessed that his boldness in committing such an illegal act in public today must an he was prepared to deal with the police.
So Lu Sheng didn’t shift the bla to herself, but simply asked the officer: “Can I go with him to the police station? Today’s incident is related to .”
But the officer said: “No need, we will first get a preliminary understanding of the situation. If necessary, we will notify you to co to the station to assist in the investigation.”
With the policeman saying so, Lu Sheng could only take a deep breath, retract her hand that was holding Huo Yu, and nodded, “…Okay then.”
With Huo Yu off to the police station for questioning, his cell phone would likely be taken away imdiately, leaving no way to keep in touch.
All she could do was wait.
Although Huo Yu told her not to worry and that he would be back soon, Lu Sheng knew that it would take ti to thoroughly investigate the matter.
And once Huo Yu’s actions were deed criminal, even though he was still a minor, he would be in a lot of trouble.
Just as Lu Sheng was considering whether to contact ng Lin to have her reach out to soone at the public security bureau to expedite Huo Yu’s release.
Not long after the extended break had started, Huo Yu actually ca back.
When Huo Yu appeared at the classroom door, everyone in the class was stunned, and for a mont there was complete silence in the classroom.
Tang Yiyi’s mouth hung open involuntarily, her expression one of disbelief.
