186 Gathering Evidence
After a moment, Chu Ning’s eyes gradually lit up. She had already found the crux of the problem.
“If you want me to personally get the express delivery, why can’t someone else collect it? It has to be personally collected.”
Chu Ning muttered to herself. Obviously, without this additional condition, Chu Ning would not have any suspicions.
However, after adding such a condition, the nature of the matter had changed a lot.
She was not sure if it had been caused by human factors, but even if it was not, there were too many coincidences.
First of all, Chu Ning did not believe that the weather forecast would have errors. It was impossible that each region would broadcast different information.
Secondly, Chu Ning’s parents might not be aware that there was this new rule that students were not allowed to freely enter and leave the hotel before the exam, so they did not know about Chu Ning’s difficulties and sent her clothes. However, the crux of the problem still lay in the words “personally collect it”.
This made Chu Ning instinctively feel a little wary. It was as if someone was deliberately coercing her to do it, making it hard for her to refuse.
Now, she had to collect the express delivery, but as for how to get it, Chu Ning still had to carefully consider it.
Thinking of this, Chu Ning could only give up on the idea of taking a shower. She had to go out for a while.
“Chu Ning, where are you going?” For a moment, Luo Yu asked worriedly. She saw that, ever since Chu Ning had taken the phone call, her entire demeanor seemed a little off. Moreover, she was frowning and talking to herself.
“I’m fine. Luo Yu, rest well. I’m going to take a look around the hotel.” After saying that, Chu Ning took her phone and walked out of the room.
She already had a plan in mind as to what she should do next.
When Chu Ning walked out of the room, the time was 9:10 PM. By the time she reached outside the entrance of the hotel, it was already 10:30 PM.
The express delivery company that Chu Ning’s parents had sent her parcel to was open 24 hours a day. Chu Ning was not worried that the express delivery company would be closed at this time.
Chu Ning was very relaxed. She swaggered out of the hotel just like that.
She had violated the rules.
What was worse was that someone had secretly taken photos and recorded this down.
The two students who had been defending Ye Ting during the day had been waiting in a corner of the lobby on the first floor of the hotel.
When they saw Chu Ning take the elevator to the first floor, one of them was in charge of taking photos, and the other was recording the whole process. In the face of such evidence, unless everyone was selectively blind, otherwise, it was impossible for Chu Ning not to admit it.
It was not until Chu Ning completely disappeared from their line of sight that the two stopped filming.
“Okay, okay, stop filming. If you continue filming, it will become blurry and unconvincing.”
One of them said softly, interrupting the other person’s filming.
“Right! This Chu Ning really doesn’t have any discipline at all. Looks like Ye Ting is right. A person who dares to defy the rules, what will she not do?”
The student who had been stopped put away his phone in satisfaction and said.
“Let’s give the photos and videos to Ye Ting first. After all, she is the most familiar with Chu Ning, and she is from the same school. When we gather for a meeting tomorrow morning, and hand over the evidence directly, we will act as witnesses and let this Chu Ning be disqualified from the national physics competition!”
“Okay!”
…
At the same time, Ye Ting was already pacing back and forth anxiously in her room. Her roommate was already asleep, but this didn’t stop her from being full of energy at the moment.
Ye Ting sat down again. She knew that she couldn’t be anxious at this critical moment.
Her phone screen lit up, and a lot of messages kept popping up.
Ye Ting looked at the messages that kept appearing, and she couldn’t suppress the joy in her heart.
Ye Ting knew that the most crucial step of her plan had already been completed.
Faced with such evidence, Chu Ning wouldn’t be able to defend herself no matter how hard she tried.
She had broken the rules, and if she broke the rules, she would be punished.
Ye Ting could already imagine the scene of Chu Ning being disqualified from the national physics competition.
“I’m going to make you publicly lose your reputation!” Ye Ting thought fiercely.
She opened the chat boxes with the two of them and started her miserable character front again. Ye Ting didn’t say thank you; she only typed out words like “It’s not good to do this. After all, she’s my sister and my classmate…” which of course made the two boys start to sympathize with her. They kept comforting her and then told her how hateful Chu Ning was.
