Chapter 362 Zhang Shan Gets Another Blow

Zhang Shan noticed everyone's gazes, and he felt as if struck by lightning, as if something exploded in his head!

"No...it's not me...I was wronged!"

He shook his head frantically, and suddenly saw Xie Xiu. He pointed at him and said, "It's you! It's you, right? You deliberately framed me!"

Xie Xiu's face darkened instantly: "I have no grudge against you, why would I frame you?"

The others all agreed.

Rather than believing that Zhang Shan was innocent, they were more willing to believe that Xie Xiu was innocent.

Xie Xiu won the first place in the provincial examination last year and is likely to pass the imperial examination this spring. He also acquired a coal mine and owns shares in the Taiping Coal Mine Company and a glass factory.

What reason does he have to be so desperate that he has to frame Zhang Shan?

Zhang Shan was speechless and couldn't say anything.

He didn't dare to tell anyone what he had done, but Xie Xiu was too outstanding and lucky, so he couldn't think of any reason why Xie Xiu would frame him.

But the gazes of the crowd really made him feel like a thorn in his side.

So after struggling for a long time, he finally came up with a reason with difficulty: "Perhaps, you just wanted to find someone to frame, and you thought I was the easiest to bully, so you did this."

This reason is really untenable and will only make people think that he is trying to throw dirty water on Xie Xiu.

But he had no choice. He couldn't take the blame and could only return it to Xie Xiu.

Zhang Shan glared at Xie Xiu angrily, but saw that the other party was smiling and had a mocking look on his face.

Suddenly, Xie Xiu sneered and said, "You shouted earlier that you lost your mirror, but didn't you check your bag carefully at that time?

This is interesting. When someone finds out that they have lost something, they will not check themselves carefully before confirming that they have lost something.

But if you checked, why didn't you find this pair of pants? You said earlier that you put it in there accidentally..."

As soon as he said this, Zhang Shan hurriedly defended himself: "I also have a pair of pants like this. I thought it was that pair. I didn't expect that someone had framed me!"

Xie Xiu knew that there would be no conclusion to the argument because Zhang Shan’s reason this time was indeed reasonable.

So he said, "I heard that many people in the Imperial College have lost their personal belongings recently.

Now that this pair of pants appears in your school bag, it is an important clue.

Why don't you let everyone go to your place and take a look, maybe the things they lost are there."

When Zhang Shan heard this, his expression instantly became even uglier.

He also guessed this possibility, so in order to avoid being blamed, he immediately asked angrily: "Xie Xiu, you still say you are not framing me?

If you didn't do it, how could you think the things were with me? Did you deliberately let someone steal the things and hide them with me, so that you can put the blame on me?"

The more he spoke, the more excited he became. His face turned purple and his eyes widened as if they would burst out of their sockets at any moment.

Xie Xiu was very calm, not at all nervous or frightened by being framed and questioned. Instead, he laughed sarcastically, "Anyone who's not stupid can easily come to such a conclusion. Can't you do the same?

If something appears in your school bag, there are only two possibilities: either you are the thief, or you are being framed.

If you are a thief, the lost things will naturally be hidden in your residence.

After all, these are personal belongings. The thief must have a special hobby and it is impossible for him to hide these things somewhere and leave them alone.

If you were framed, the other party would naturally hide the remaining items in your residence.

It's such a simple truth, there's no way you couldn't understand it. So why are you so panicked?

Earlier, when you discovered that everyone had lost something, you took the initiative to suggest that everyone empty the contents of their school bags to prove your innocence.

Now that you have guessed that our lost things are hidden in your place, why don't you let us go look for them?

If you are really framed, after the things are found, the officials will naturally find out the truth and clear your name.

So what are you afraid of? You can't be feeling guilty, right?

"I... I didn't..." Zhang Shan broke out in cold sweat all over his body, even on his face.

He didn't dare to wipe it off, for fear that his action would become evidence for Xie Xiu to accuse him of being guilty.

He eagerly defended himself, "This is the first time I've encountered such an incredible thing, so I'm inevitably a little frightened.

You are right. I don't need to be afraid. The police will definitely find out the truth and clear my name."

Xie Xiu said calmly, "In that case, you'll lead the way. Regardless of whether or not it was stolen by you, as long as we can find it, it's a good thing."

Zhang Shan glanced around and clearly found that many people were showing impatience.

Sure enough, before he could even open his mouth, those people started urging him on.

"Zhang Shan, if you really didn't do it, why don't you just move faster? What's the point of dawdling like this?"

"We all want to believe in your innocence, but if you continue like this, we will have to doubt you."

These people either despised or threatened Zhang Shan, forcing him into a difficult position and he had no choice but to take them to his own residence, also called Shishe.

On the way, they met Li Jijiu and several teachers. Seeing that they were such a large group, Li Jijiu immediately frowned and asked, "Where are you going?"

A student who had lost his pants immediately said excitedly: "A ruthless thief has appeared in the Imperial College. The stolen goods he stole are likely hidden in Zhang Shan's dormitory, so we have to go and find the stolen goods!"

Li Jijiu immediately remembered his missing pair of ripped shorts, and his face instantly turned extremely gloomy. He said righteously, "Such a big thing has happened in the Imperial College. As the Jijiu, I have no choice but to take action! I will go with you to take a look!"

The other teachers also nodded seriously, indicating that they wanted to join in.

So, a group of people continued to march towards Zhang Shan’s residence.

He was surrounded by people, like a prisoner being escorted, and was "escorted" by everyone all the way to the soldiers' quarters. He felt more bitter than if he had eaten ten kilograms of raw Coptis chinensis!

Zhang Shan could only pray silently in his heart that the things must not be in his quarters!

Soon they arrived at the place.

Zhang Shan was urged to unlock the door, and before he could react, the students who had lost their pants pushed him aside violently and rushed in to search impatiently.

Although others felt that it was a little inappropriate, they felt it was understandable when they thought of the red shorts that fell out of Zhang Shanshu's bag.

If they also lost their pants and had them secretly played with by a stinky man, they would definitely be more anxious than anyone else at this moment!

After being roughly pushed away, Zhang Shan hurriedly followed in.

He was worried that he would be framed, so he had to follow him in and keep an eye on him!

After hesitating for a moment, the others followed in.

Then, they saw someone take out a bright red transparent bellyband from Zhang Shan's bed.
