1198 Hua Qianyin’s Death (1)
“That seems to be the case, but there are witnesses and evidence now. It can’t be fake, right?”
“Maybe Hua Qianyin was injured, so she was beaten to death by Zuo Xiaofei.”
“That’s really possible. After all, there are already witnesses. They can’t have wronged Zuo Xiaofei.”
When the people around were almost done discussing, Supervisor Zhao looked at Zuo Xiaofei and asked, “Zuo Xiaofei, do you plead guilty?”
Zuo Xiaofei shook her head hurriedly. “Supervisor Zhao, I really didn’t kill her. I really didn’t attack her. She suddenly fell down herself. If Supervisor Zhao doesn’t believe me, you can check the injuries on her body. Yes, as long as you check the injuries on her body, you’ll know how she died!”
After saying that, Zuo Xiaofei’s hands trembled, and she wanted to pull Hua Qianyin’s clothes herself.
However, Supervisor Zhao stopped her.
“Student Zuo, you’re disrespecting the deceased by treating her like this in public.”
Supervisor Zhao took a few steps away from Zuo Xiaofei and said with a dark expression, “To think that you were the best friend of the deceased. Are you not even willing to give her your last respect?”
“I… I…” Zuo Xiaofei wanted to explain, but Supervisor Zhao didn’t give her a chance at all.
“Student Zuo, there are witnesses and evidence now. It’s not your place to quibble and deny it.”
Supervisor Zhao glanced at the few guards of the academy on the side. “Detain the person in the academy for the time being and inform the family of the deceased to come to the academy as soon as possible.”
“Yes, Supervisor Zhao.” The guards replied and walked towards Zuo Xiaofei.
“It wasn’t me. I really didn’t kill anyone!” Zuo Xiaofei didn’t resist, but she still denied her crime.
“Wait!”
Lu Zijia, who finally squeezed through the dense crowd and entered the encirclement, couldn’t help but sigh.
She could clearly use Sword Kinesis Flight to pass through the crowd, but she couldn’t use it here. She could only squeeze her way through. No other cultivator would have to suffer a fate like hers.
“Alchemist Lu? Senior Mu?!”
When Zuo Xiaofei saw Lu Zijia and Mu Tianyan arrive, she was first stunned, then delighted.
Lu Zijia smiled at her, indicating for her to calm down.
“Those who have nothing to do with this matter, leave quickly!”
When Supervisor Zhao heard how Zuo Xiaofei addressed the couple, her eyes flickered slightly and she urged a few guards to take them away.
However, Lu Zijia smiled and blocked the way of the guards without a trace.
“Supervisor Zhao, right?”
Lu Zijia didn’t seem to see Supervisor Zhao’s displeasure and said without changing her expression, “I’m Zuo Xiaofei’s cousin. I wonder what mistake she made that the academy wants to detain her?”
“Alchemist Lu, they said that I killed someone, but I really didn’t kill anyone. I didn’t attack her at all. I don’t know why she suddenly died. I really don’t know.” Zuo Xiaofei explained anxiously as she looked at Hua Qianyin, who was lying on the ground with her eyes wide open.
For Zuo Xiaofei at this moment, the arrival of Lu Zijia and Mu Tianyan were like her last straw to clutch at, making her subconsciously want to just grab them.
Even though she was a martial artist, she had been protected very well by her father since she was young. She had never hurt anyone, let alone killed anyone.
So now that she was said to have killed someone, she was extremely panicked.
Lu Zijia raised her hand and patted her arm, indicating for her to calm down and not panic.
