Space and Rebirth 102 - To Catch a Turtle in a Jar

After all, now that she was studying medicine, she strongly believes that she was incapable of killing anyone in the dire state she was in. The reason Qiao Weimin had died was certainly because of Cao Xing. In the end, the blame had still been pushed onto her. Jing Yunzhao was only unsure if Qiao Hongye knew about Cao Xing's actions.

At this point, the three of them paid the bill, swiftly followed Jing Yunzhao and returned back to the small apartment complex. But just as they were taking a few steps, Jing Yunzhao saw the hiding Qiao Hongye who was tailing them.

"Chu Chu, let's take the East entrance." Jing Yunzhao tugged Su Chu and headed for the entrance.

Jing Yunzhao purposely walked in the shadows, ensuring that Qiao Hongye would be unable to spy on them. But Qiao Hongye was also not dumb and she was not at fault for being found. If it weren't for Jing Yunzhao who was vigilant and kept her guard up, she would not necessarily have noticed her location.

Su Chu and Gan Jinchen both felt this was a little strange, but they followed Jing Yunzhao's instructions and moved accordingly.

The three entered the small apartment complex through the East entrance. Looking up, the trio realized that there was a small light flashing dimly from within their room.

"Biao-ge… Has a robber broken into our house…?" Su Chu instantly started to panic. This robber was truly audacious, they had only left for a short while but he had the guts to break into their apartment to commit a robbery!

"Chu Chu, let's go look for property management." Gan Jinchen was not an impulsive idiot, he did not think of rushing in.

Even though they had some money in their house, but he and Chu Chu were merely children after all. Adding all their possessions, they only had about a few thousand yuan.

"Chu Chu, you know Qiao Hongye right?" Jing Yunzhao asked.

"I've seen her around, but I cannot really say that I know her. Why?" Seeing as the topic of Qiao Hongye popped out of nowhere, Su Chu was a little confused.

"Qiao Hongye is likely an accomplice. She is currently in the third alley opposite our apartment complex watching us. If you called for property management, she would find out about it immediately. Then she would inform the robber inside which would lead to the robber's escape, at that time we would definitely be unable to catch the culprit. Follow my instructions, the both of you should pretend that you have recognized Qiao Hongye as someone familiar to impede her. This would stop her from informing the robber. I'll be watching the robber on this side and wait for the cops to arrive." Jing Yunzhao instructed.

When she finished, Su Chu was flabbergasted, "Qiao Hongye is an accomplice? It can't be!"

Even though she had not interacted much with Qiao Hongye, the other students had all said that she was a very gentle person. How could she be the accomplice?

Jing Yunzhao knew that these two would not believe her, so she told them bluntly, "The person I saw just now is called Cao Xing. He's a hooligan. In the past, weren't there a bunch of people trying to block and intercept me at the school gate? Five out of the six of them have been caught, Cao Xing is the boss of those group of hooligans and had escaped."

With those words, Su Chu was even more shocked.

She would never have thought that Qiao Hongye was someone like this!

She did not have any favorable impression towards Qiao Hongye, but she also had no resentment or animosity towards her. Thus, she did not really pay attention to her. However, it was still difficult to imagine that beneath that mask of a pretty girl from a humble family, was a girl filled with such malevolent schemes!

"You mean that Qiao Hongye was the mastermind behind you being involved with those hooligans?" Gan Jinchen also felt that all his world had been turned upside down.

He and Qiao Hongye were both members of the Student Committee and usually interacted with each other quite often. Honestly speaking, he didn't really like Qiao Hongye. He had always had a bad feeling about her. Her expressions often bring him discomfort, which was why he had always distanced himself away from her. He was never like the other guys who always stayed close to her.

"That's right, other than harassing me with hooligans, the rumors this time also originated from her." Jing Yunzhao told them the truth.

"But … Why does she need someone to steal our things? It's not like it will do her any good?" Su Chu could not understand.

"The truth is, I have in my hands a Ginseng root that is worth a considerable amount of money and she had recently found out about it. I had already seen her scouting the area nearby this morning, that's why I especially took you guys out for dinner tonight. Rather than waiting to be caught off guard by the opponent, why not just create an opportunity to catch them red-handed. I'm very sorry. There were actually these ulterior motives mixed with treating you guys to dinner this time."
