Chapter 177: Child's Play Arrest

to treat the plague. They used the medicinal herbs brought by the wise attendant, which allowed the doctor to make substantial progress.Because of the timely quarantine, the plague in Phoenix Tranqui..."..."

Why aren't you speaking Is it difficult to say Or is it because your permissions are insufficient, and you don't even know

Her ripples of brows raised, her question pierced my heart.

"Well... you don't have to be so blunt!"

The stone mill spoke in a low voice.

So you don't know anything, just grabbed this mission to level up, and then tricked me into taking it!

The ripples felt like they wanted to rub their temples.

"Well, with your skills, handling something like this should be a piece of cake. I'll use my connections to look into the specifics. Just wait for my good news."

The grindstone went offline after finishing its statement.

With a snap, the ripples shattered the pen in his hand. Luckily, the other female teacher in the office didn't notice.

At this moment, the school bell rang. Lian Ri pulled her face, threw the broken pencil in her hand into the trash can, and adjusted her expression. She was once again that aloof and proud, high-level talent who had returned from studying abroad.

The elegant and handsome Mr. Pan greeted Lianyi with a nod at the door of the female teachers' office after class.

"Mr. Wu, would you please stay late today If you have something to do next time, you can ask me to adjust your schedule."

"No, it's nothing to worry about, Teacher Pan. "

Liàn yǐ smiled and replied, then picked up her teaching materials and walked towards the teaching building. Now that she was a teacher, she naturally had to live up to the salary the school paid her.

Unfortunately, when Lianyi first went to class, less than ten minutes after entering the classroom, a group of soldiers with fierce and menacing expressions rushed into the classroom.

Take it away!

The head centurion pointed directly at Ripples, signaling the soldiers behind him to arrest her.

The students in the classroom immediately changed color and stood up, rushing to the podium to protect their teacher.

The class monitor nodded to a boy, who slipped out the back door under the cover of his classmates to find the principal.

Ripples said in a calm voice:

"Why are you arresting me What crime have I committed"

But the way she gripped her cane betrayed her nervousness.

"Hmph! Hu Qian was found dead in a private room at the tavern. Some say the last person to see him was you, Mr. Wu."

The憲兵隊長 seems to be enjoying this cat-and-mouse game.

"When"

It was probably between 12pm and 3pm.

"Anyone who claims to have seen me must be lying!"

Ripple seemed to have found the other's weakness, visibly letting out a breath of relief, and her expression softened considerably.

"What does it mean"

This time, it was the turn of the Military Police Captain to frown.

I had four classes this morning, all my students and teachers can prove I was at school. At noon, I only went out of the school gate and ate a bowl of wonton soup at the wonton stand across the street. When I returned to school, I met Teacher Pan from the same school.

He said he had something to do, so we switched classes. I agreed, and I just stayed in the office for a period. Teacher Jia, who was also in the office, can prove that I never left the office.

This is my English class, I just came in less than ten minutes, you guys are already here, I haven't even left school, how do I go see that Hu Qian

He's just a toad, and I really have no idea what he's up to. Even if he invites me, I wouldn't dream of going!

After the last sentence was spoken, the disdain for someone named Hu Qian was palpable.

"Humph, you're the teacher, so of course they gravitate towards you. As for that wonton stall owner, we need to ask him ourselves first. Let's go together."

"You have no evidence, and you're taking me away like this What will the students and teachers think of me"

The ripples seemed to be upset and insisted on not leaving with this group of people.

"That's not up to you! Take it!"

The gendarmes charged again, only to be stopped by the young and spirited students. As the confrontation was about to escalate, a voice of authority rang out:

"Quiet! What are you all doing"

Both parties immediately turned their attention elsewhere.

The military police captain, after seeing the newcomer, pursed his lips and obsequiously stepped forward:

"Wu Lao, how did I disturb you"

"I'm the principal here. This school was built with half my funding, and all the teachers have overseas study experience. You could say that there isn't a second school in Pingbei that compares."

You barge in here with your people, taking everyone by force. Did you even consider me Where am I supposed to put my face now

The visitor was a hale and hearty old man, dressed in a black robe. His white hair was combed neatly back, and he held an ebony walking stick carved with the head of a dragon in his hands.

This man is the principal of Yimin University, Wu You, who is also known as Sir Anping by the captain of the gendarmerie.

This Lord Anping was personally appointed by the highest commander of the Nationalist Party. Because at the beginning of the war with Japan, this man donated almost all of his wealth and, through his overseas connections, purchased a batch of weaponry, including ten airplanes. He can be said to have supported the Nationalist Party in action, receiving praise and being featured in newspapers. He also became a regular guest at the Presidential Palace.

Sir Anping was a very wise elder with extraordinary vision and foresight. He did not become arrogant because of his contributions, but instead modestly began to establish schools. He believed that the younger generation, who would eventually grow old, were the ones who could save the country from dire straits.

Also because Wu Yu is so wise and knows the times, President Shi also said: Old Wu is a rare and pure patriot who deserves to be treated with respect.

Therefore, Sir Anping's position of unease was quite prominent, yet no one dared to truly offend him.

The moment ripples lowered her eyes, she had already pulled out the information about this big shot from the original's memory. Moreover, the reason she came here to teach was also because she considered Lord Anping's status and identity, so she chose to teach at this school.

"Headmaster, I am a helpless woman. How could I possibly commit murder, especially for such a thing"

Ripples said with eyes reddened.

"Rest assured, I know what you're like. Otherwise, I wouldn't have hired you to teach in the first place."

Wu Yu finished speaking, then turned to the military police captain and said:

"I'll go with Teacher Wu to the military police."

"Oh my! Lao Wu, you're not putting me in a difficult position, are you I wouldn't even dare to ask you to come to our place!"

The military police captain wouldn't dare let Sir Anping go, unless he wanted to be dismissed.

Then bring the evidence and arrest them, or today, even if your Chief of Police comes, he won't be able to take anyone away!

The old man, using his cane to tap the ground, spoke with a resounding voice, full of power and majesty.

"Well... shall we check again"

The captain of the gendarmerie said, somewhat uncertainly.

"Don't worry, Teacher Wu is right here waiting, not going anywhere."

The military police captain knew he couldn't take the person away today, so he could only temporarily disband his troops.

There's no way, this guy... even the Chief wouldn't dare mess with him.

A botched capture ended like this. Lian Ri stepped forward and bowed to Lao Wu, thanking him for his protection.

"If it wasn't you who did this, then no one could take you from here."ion. Then she heard someone say:"Yes, yes, it's ripples!"Then ripples grasped his sword and walked over slowly, looking at Qiqi and the martial artists behind him. He let out a cold snort and said:"I'...
