Recording!
Shen Qingqing stood up excitedly.
"What recording? How can this be valid?"
The policeman gave Shen Qingqing a puzzled look. "It was that classmate named Li Lan who personally verified that she hadn't been molested. We've investigated. Teacher Yun's family didn't threaten or bribe her. This incident is indeed just a misunderstanding. Your words don't count... Is there something else hidden?"
Shen Qingqing's head was buzzing.
It was all over. She had planned for so long in vain, and now all her efforts had come to naught.
"Do you have any other questions? If not, please describe the scene at that time again. If there are still discrepancies, we will continue the investigation."
What's there to investigate? Now this matter is a done deal, and there's no room for change.
If Shen Qingqing insisted, the police would definitely investigate. If their affairs were involved then, it would be a case of losing both the wife and the soldiers. It wasn't worth it.
Her eyes were filled with hatred, but since things had come to this, she could only go along with Yun Que'er and the others.
"Let me think..." Shen Qingqing closed her eyes resignedly.
She pretended to think carefully for a long time before saying,
"From my perspective at that time, Teacher Yun did seem to touch Li Lan. But I was quite far away, so I might not have seen clearly. What really happened, I think only Li Lan herself knows."
"But you were so definite last time." The policeman frowned.
"I..." Shen Qingqing stammered. Closing her eyes and steeling her heart, she said, "I was very scared at that time. Maybe like Li Lan, I didn't figure out the situation before testifying. Anyway, everything should be counted as Li Lan said."
The investigator exchanged a look with the person beside him, indicating that he accepted this statement.
"Okay, then the misunderstanding is resolved. But little girl, don't say things you shouldn't."
Shen Qingqing's heart skipped a beat, and she looked up in surprise.
What else did Yun Que'er and the others say?
"What does this mean?" Shen Qingqing stood up excitedly.
"What do you mean by things I shouldn't say? Do you mean that I lied?"
The policeman gave her a strange look. "What I mean is that it's a new era now. Don't spread those feudal remarks that oppress women everywhere. Li Lan told us that you told her how important a girl's reputation is, so she was so scared when something happened that she misremembered the situation and wrongly accused Teacher Yun."
So it was this...
Shen Qingqing let out a long breath and slumped directly into the chair.
She couldn't help clenching her fists.
If she had known Li Lan was so unreliable, she shouldn't have approached her in the first place.
Fortunately, she hadn't been implicated in the end.
The investigator stood up with the transcript. "Okay, we've asked all the questions we need to. We'll handle the follow - up matters and then send you home. Just sit here for now."
The recorder also went out with him. Just as he closed the door, he looked back in doubt.
"Brother Liu, don't you think this little girl is quite strange?" He leaned over. "She was so confident at first, but got so excited after hearing that her classmate withdrew the lawsuit. It's as if she was looking forward to something bad happening."
Especially after the investigator said that there was no problem with this matter, she changed her story directly. This made it even more strange.
The investigator glanced at him and asked with a faint smile.
"Do you know what things shouldn't be delved into deeply?"
He pointed at Shen Qingqing inside and looked at her meaningfully.
"Some things seem problematic at first glance, but there's no evidence to prove that they violate the law after in - depth investigation. At most, it's just moral condemnation."
He sighed softly. "I hope this little girl doesn't destroy her conscience."

"Thank you, police officers. You've really gone to a lot of trouble." Yun Motan shook the policeman's hand to express his gratitude. "Otherwise, I would have been wrongly accused and suffered inside."
"You should thank your daughter. It's this girl who is so alert that she noticed something wrong. Otherwise, we wouldn't have been able to find out."
The policeman patted Yun Motan on the shoulder and then smiled at Yun Que'er.
"You're amazing."
Yun Que'er smiled. "Uncle, you're overpraising me. Actually, I didn't help much. It was all my elder brother and sister who were busy."
"Oh, I only saw one of your elder brothers before. Do you have an elder sister too?"
Yun Que'er nodded. "Yes, there are four children in our family, but I was picked up by Dad from the roadside."
The policeman was surprised and couldn't help sighing that this child was really grateful.
Although she wasn't his biological child, she could go to so much trouble for this father without blood relationship. She was really a good child.
Seeing this, Yun Motan quickly hugged Yun Que'er. "Who says she's not my biological child? Once she entered our family, she's my own flesh and blood."
The policeman saw how close this non - biological father and daughter were and couldn't help sighing.
"Teacher Yun, you've raised a group of good children. You're also lucky to be in this good era. We just got the news here that family planning is going to start. From now on, we advocate having fewer and better children, one child per family. You're really lucky to have so many children. You won't be lonely in your later years."
The policeman sent them out. "Then take your time. I hope we won't meet because of this kind of thing in the future."
Yun Motan smiled. "I'll take your good word for it."
Yun Motan held Yun Que'er's hand and walked back. "After staying inside for so many days, I still feel that the air outside is fresh."
"Dad, you've worked hard." Yun Que'er said. "Dad, you came out safely this time, but you still need to be more careful in the future. I don't think this incident was just the doing of Shen Qingqing alone. Even if she disliked me, we've only known each other for a few days. She didn't need to go to so much trouble just because she disliked me. Maybe Teacher Lu had a hand in it too."
It didn't matter about other things. They were just petty disputes among little girls and were harmless.
But when it involved adults, it wasn't that simple.
The most important thing was that Yun Que'er still didn't know the real situation of Teacher Lu and Shen Qingqing. They were in the open, while the enemy was in the dark. If they were cornered, that would be the most terrifying thing.
Yun Motan nodded slowly. "Dad knows all these things. Don't worry."
Yun Motan was an extremely honest teacher, but he wasn't a fool and could see these things clearly.
No matter how scheming a child was, they couldn't be as cunning as an adult.
Moreover, one could tell a thing or two from Yun Que'er's reaction. She was never the kind of person who would take advantage of others. Clearly, she had been so provoked that she wished she could pounce on them and bite them hard.
It was also Yun Motan's fault. He should have noticed something wrong earlier.
But it was too late to say these things now.
He was careless for a moment and fell into someone else's trap. He couldn't avoid it.
