Chapter 1398: The Blackened Good Girl (33)
When the police heard the story, they felt that no matter what the person was busy doing, they still needed to take her statement.
Since
they learned that the mysterious girl had climbed back into the school, they
concluded that she had to be a student there and immediately went in to look
for her.
By
the time the officers entered the school, Tang Guo had already changed back
into her school uniform. Carrying her backpack and wearing her usual pure
smile, she happened to walk right past them.
“Student,
are you having some kind of cosplay event here?” one officer stopped Tang Guo.
“Have you seen a girl dressed in black leather with a face mask? We'd like to
ask her a few questions.”
“I
don't know. I've been doing homework in the classroom the whole time. Sorry, I
can't help you.” Tang Guo smiled shyly, her eyes so clear and innocent that
they almost seemed unreal.
“Oh,
then we'll ask around some more.” Seeing how late it was, the officer kindly
reminded her, “Next time, take your homework home. It's not safe staying this
late.”
“Okay,
thank you for the reminder. My driver is waiting outside, so please don't
worry. I'll definitely be safe.”
After
saying goodbye, the officers had no idea that the person they were searching
for had just walked right past them.
After
searching the school without success, they eventually left.
The
moment she got home, Tang Guo received a call from Mother Tang.
“Lingling
got into trouble. She's still at the police station. Your Aunt Ruolan has
already gone over there. I heard it has something to do with those hoodlums
outside.”
Mother
Tang felt increasingly fortunate that they had discovered the problem early and
had made Tang Guo distance herself from Wu Lingling.
“Mom,
what exactly happened?” Tang Guo asked with a slight smile.
Mother
Tang said she had only just received a call from Qin Ruolan herself. All she
knew was that Wu Lingling was at the police station, that the matter was
serious, and that it involved hoodlums. She didn't know anything else.
“Alright,
Xiaoguo, finish your homework and get some rest early.”
Although
Mother Tang was still out of town and wouldn't personally go to the police
station, she knew Qin Ruolan would immediately inform her of any updates.
Tang
Guo simply waited for the outcome tomorrow.
The
next morning, as soon as she entered the classroom, she heard her classmates
whispering among themselves.
“What
are you all talking about?”
“Tang
Guo, you don't know? Wu Lingling got herself into trouble. Big trouble. This
time, she's probably going to be expelled.”
Tang
Guo hadn't expected things to become this serious.
But
judging by the fact that everyone already knew about it, Miao Rourou's family
must have made the matter public.
Besides,
every class had group chats these days.
Miao
Rourou's parents clearly cared deeply about her.
Information
spread so quickly online that even though Wu Lingling was a minor and wouldn't
face severe punishment, no parent would want someone like her to continue
studying at this school.
“Do
you know what Wu Lingling did yesterday afternoon?” one classmate said. “She
and those delinquent girls from her group actually dragged their class monitor
into a hoodlum's van. If it weren't for some martial arts-loving cosplayer
showing up and helping her, who knows what would've happened?”
“That
Wu Lingling is really disgusting.”
“Tang
Guo, you're cousins. You'd better stay away from her. At this rate, she might
target you one day.”
“Don't
worry, I hardly have anything to do with her anymore.”
In less than half a day, the entire junior high and senior high departments were discussing the incident.
