Immediately following the computer’s soft “ding,” Mei Shu snapped her fingers and pointed at the screen, saying, “There you go.”
“Is that it?” Chief Zhou exclaimed in shock as he squeezed through the officers to get a closer look.
The video on the screen played again, but the female protagonist’s face had been completely replaced by that of a stranger.
Chief Zhou stared at the face, scrutinizing it carefully. He then slammed the table excitedly, “Yes, yes, this is the original video!”
With his confirmation, the others finally believed that Mei Shu indeed had such incredible skills.
Captain Wang looked at her in astonishment and asked, “Where did you learn this?”
Mei Shu smiled and said, “1 figured it out on my own. With this video, you can bring the girl in the video for questioning, and I believe you’ll solve the case quickly.”
“Absolutely, we’ll move quickly,” Captain Wang was now very impressed with her and even regretted that she hadn’t graduated from high school yet.
“If you were already in college, I would have recommended you to join our police force,” he added. Captain Wang valued talent and believed that Mei Shu’s addition would be a significant asset in handling complex cases in the future.
However, Chief Zhou didn’t like the idea and immediately opposed it, saying, “She’s just a young girl. Why force her to join the police force and expose herself to danger in the field? She should come to our technology department. That wouldn’t be wasting her talents.”
Upon hearing this, Officer Liu couldn’t help muttering under his breath, “She’s not in danger; she’s safer than anyone!”
“What did you say?” Chief Zhou didn’t catch his words and glared at him disapprovingly.
Officer Liu quickly waved his hands and said, “I didn’t say anything, but Chief Zhou, it’s too early to compete for talent with Captain Wang. She hasn’t even taken her college entrance exams yet!”
Chief Zhou sighed with regret, “Then focus on your studies. You have a natural talent in this field, and you can pursue a computer science major in the future.” “I’ll consider that,” Mei Shu replied calmly. “Can I go now?”
“Of course, I’ll have Officer Liu give you a ride home,” Captain Wang said, giving him a signal with his eyes.
Officer Liu immediately made a welcoming gesture, “Once you’ve made it big, don’t forget to take me with you!”
“Sure,” Mei Shu replied playfully.
When she returned to school, the classroom was in a buzz.
When Wen Miao saw her standing at the door, she rushed over with excitement. “They said you were taken away by the police! Are you okay?”
Mei Shu shook her head slowly, “I’m fine, just cooperating with an investigation.”
“That’s good,” Wen Miao sighed in relief and pulled her into the classroom. She shouted at the classmates who were eagerly looking their way, “I told you nothing would happen to our goddess! It’s the students from other classes who are worrying for nothing! The police are already involved, and it won’t be long before they clear our goddess’s name!”
Other students echoed her sentiments, surrounding Mei Shu and offering words of comfort to ease any psychological pressure she might feel.
Mei Shu smiled and chatted with them.
Meanwhile, Zhou Li watched from the side for a while, slipped out of the classroom, and returned with a pale-faced young man.
When the others saw him, they fell silent.
However, Wen Miao didn’t mince words. She stood in front of Mei Shu, blocking her from the intruder, and yelled, “What are you doing here? Students from other classes are not allowed inside. If you don’t leave, I’ll tell the teacher!”
Li Zhen sneered and said, “Do you think I’m afraid? Move aside, I have something to say to her!”
“I won’t let you,” Wen Miao made up her mind not to let him speak nonsense in front of Mei Shu.
Mei Shu reached out and pulled on Wen Miao’s sleeve, moving her behind her. “Don’t worry; let him speak.”
“You don’t know that this guy slandered you earlier!” Wen Miao was worried and anxious.
But Mei Shu gave her a reassuring look and turned back to the door. “What do you want to say?”
Li Zhen’s face turned extremely ugly. He stared at Mei Shu, and his gaze slowly moved down to her chest.
The image of her in the video with several men suddenly flashed in his mind.
His heart raced. “I came to tell you that I no longer like you. Please don’t ever mention any relationship between us to anyone. It was my mistake to be infatuated with a woman like you. In the future, stay far away from me.”
Mei Shu burst into laughter, holding her shoulders and looking at him strangely. “What relationship do we have? When did I ever tell anyone that we had a relationship?”
Li Zhen was speechless, his face changing from blue to white. He clenched his fists at his sides, making a creaking sound, and said in a frustrated tone, “If I were you, I’d definitely find a hole to hide in right now! I wouldn’t continue to make a fool of myself in school!”
Mei Shu blinked and said, “How am I making a fool of myself?”
“You’re making a fool of yourself by doing what you did!” Li Zhen said, exasperated..
