Time ticked by, and the inspection team quickly arrived at the door of Dormitory 330.
There were about seven or eight people, including the dormitory auntie, staff from the school's logistics and security departments, a female student from the Biochemistry College Student Union, and a female teacher from the College Student Affairs Office.
As they entered, the atmosphere in Dormitory 330 suddenly became solemn and intimidating. The tranquil spring countryside of the previous moment turned into a cold battlefield where chiefs' heads were taken in the next second.
"Most of you have probably heard about the incident. To ensure that such a heinous event doesn't happen again, the college plans to conduct a thorough inspection of all the dormitories in this building. Do you have any objections?"
The female teacher got straight to the point.
How could they object? Su Yuan and the others wore apologetic smiles. "Please rest assured, Teacher. We don't want that morally corrupt person to go unpunished. Please search as you wish!"
Gao Jun said boldly, his demeanor genuinely enthusiastic. Su Yuan and Ji Ye Hao quickly followed suit, their attitudes highly cooperative, leaving no room for criticism.
The female teacher nodded in approval. She thought this dormitory was really good, unlike others who would make excuses. Yes, if the inspection found no issues, she would definitely praise them and find an opportunity to give them an award for excellence.
The search began quickly. The female student from the Student Union was in charge of the inspection. Starting from the door, she first entered the bathroom and took a few glances—it was clean and fresh, giving a good first impression of Dormitory 330. Then she opened the large wardrobe, and with the help of the logistics staff, she took down the bedding bag, zipped it open, and found the bedding inside, which was fine.
Next, she began to check the shoe cabinets, wardrobes, drawers, and small cabinets.
Su Yuan wore a faint smile, feeling relieved when they didn't notice the bedding bag above the wardrobe.
So far, everything was going smoothly.
The shoe cabinet contained shoes.
The drawers, though messy, had nothing inappropriate.
The small cabinet was empty, with only a router box inside.
The key moment came with the wardrobe. Su Yuan was secretly pleased that she had successfully moved the "evidence." The wardrobe should be fine; it contained only clothes, but she felt like she had forgotten something.
Suddenly, she remembered the medicine she had bought from the hospital, which was still inside. Her expression stiffened, "Oh no!!" She hoped they wouldn't recognize the scientific names of the drugs.
The female teacher, who was checking Su Yuan's wardrobe, first glanced at it and found it relatively tidy. When she moved a few stacked clothes, she saw a plastic bag with a red cross, containing several boxes of medicine. The situation Su Yuan feared didn't happen, and the teacher casually set it aside.
"Phew!" She sighed in relief, finding her "excessive anxiety" amusing.
But the next second, Su Yuan's pupils dilated. She saw something next to the plastic bag—a white "strip," part of a white lace! Even a closer look revealed a small, half-spherical object.
At that moment, Su Yuan's eyes turned green. She had thought she had cleaned everything, but how could there still be a missed item? This was going to ruin her!
She could see it from a distance, and there was no way the teacher wouldn't notice.
If they dug deeper, the critical items would be exposed, and she would be doomed!
The female teacher grabbed the "strip" and pulled, revealing the bra buried in the pile of clothes.
Seeing this, Su Yuan broke out in a cold sweat. She cursed inwardly, "You perverted monster, shameless scum, not only did you put a few packs of women's underwear in my wardrobe, but you also planted a time bomb!"
"Whose wardrobe is this?" The teacher turned around, her expression neutral, giving no hint of her thoughts.
Everyone's gaze turned to Su Yuan. Ji Ye Hao and Gao Jun were confused, thinking the teacher had found something incriminating in Su Yuan's wardrobe.
Su Yuan felt like crying but couldn't. She timidly raised her hand. At that moment, the teacher's gaze seemed so sharp and made her feel ashamed.
To Su Yuan's surprise, the teacher only nodded and didn't reveal her discovery. Instead, she stared at Su Yuan for a moment and said, "I noticed there are only three bedding bags in your dormitory. There should be four people, right? Is the missing one yours?"
Su Yuan wanted to pretend to be crazy, but the teacher's sharp gaze made her completely soften. Her "evidence" was still in the teacher's hands!
She nodded.
"Where is your bag?"
"..."
Su Yuan was speechless. Since she was doomed anyway, she decided to be calm and pointed to where the bedding bag was stored. If she was going to die, it would be in a few seconds. She became resolute, as if preparing to face her inevitable end.
The bag was taken down, and the girl who received it frowned. "What's inside? It's so heavy!"
Ji Ye Hao, seeing that Su Yuan was indifferent and not responding, felt anxious and quickly said, "It's some equipment and instruments, with bedding at the bottom."
When the zipper was pulled, it revealed instruments, wires, toolboxes, and bedding. The girl was surprised. "No wonder it's so heavy. It's full of all sorts of things."
Gao Jun then said, "These things are mine. I don't have a place to put them, and I don't use them often, so I put them in her bag."
Everyone looked relieved, and with so many items, they didn't inspect them closely, passing the check quickly.
"This dormitory is fine. Let's move on to the next one." The inspection team marked a check next to Dormitory 330 and proceeded to the next dormitory.
After everyone left, the female teacher came to Su Yuan, scrutinized her for a few seconds, and said, "Come to the College Student Affairs Office at 4 PM. I need to talk to you."
Su Yuan's face darkened. She thought, "Even if I'm not labeled as a bra thief, I'm at least going to be labeled as a 'small-time bra thief' or 'mentally unstable.'"
Fortunately, the teacher had spared her the embarrassment of a public revelation. Otherwise, her injustice would have been impossible to erase.
"Su Yuan, why do you look so unhappy? The inspection team is gone, you should be happy!" Gao Jun said.
Su Yuan gave a smile that was more painful than crying and took out the lace bra from her wardrobe. "The teacher asked me to go to her office and talk to her."
"Ah!"
"Ah!"
Seeing the bra in her hand, Ji Ye Hao and Gao Jun widened their eyes, trying hard not to laugh. They knew Su Yuan was in trouble. They thought they had helped her through the crisis, but a smaller one still landed on her.
"Su Yuan, think about how to explain to the teacher."
"At least it wasn't announced in public."
"Stop joking around, I'm really upset!"
Yes, Su Yuan was troubled about how to explain herself to the Student Affairs Office.
—
At 4 PM, Su Yuan arrived at the College Student Affairs Office. She paced back and forth at the stairwell, hesitating for a while before taking a deep breath and pushing the door open.
The Student Affairs Office had two desks. Inside were two teachers: the female teacher from the afternoon, Ms. Wang, and Su Yuan's class counselor, Mr. Qin.
Seeing Su Yuan enter, Ms. Wang and Mr. Qin stopped their conversation and gestured for her to sit in the chair in front of them, adopting a serious and educational tone.
