Chapter 1869 - 1869: Retain the Results

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

When Qiao Mei planted these strawberries, she also dropped many vine seeds nearby. These vines were all rooted in the ground and were barely visible on the surface, looking exactly like grass. These vines were her eyes and ears. They were constantly monitoring the strawberries in this area and she knew everything that was going on.

Therefore, Qiao Mei had already seen everything that happened last night and knew very well who was responsible for all of this. However, the actual scene looked much more tragic than what she saw last night.

“Qiao Mei... um... all the crops in your field have been eaten by this dog...” the dean said awkwardly as he stood rooted, his hand pressed down on the “canine criminal”.Updated from novelb(i)n.c(o)m

Qiao Mei nodded. She looked around but did not find any footprints. It seemed that Xie Jing had covered everything up very thoroughly. Even if there were footprints, it would be impossible to prove who they belonged to. Too many people had rushed here this morning and the ground was still very soft after the rain. There were everyone’s footprints around and some of the evidence had already been destroyed.

“I’m sorry... I was too impulsive this morning. When I saw that you weren’t in school, I went to look for the teachers from your faculty. I completely forgot to ensure that the evidence is protected,” Wu Duo said self-reproachedly as he stood beside Qiao Mei.

Qiao Mei patted Wu Duo’s shoulder and whispered, “This matter has nothing to do with you. You did the right thing by calling the teacher over. Even if you didn’t ask the teacher to come over, someone would have made sure that there is no evidence left behind.’

“Professor, as long as I can produce evidence to prove that my strawberries grow well, can I retain my results?” Qiao Mei asked.

Wang Wei said in a panic, “All your things have all been destroyed! How are you going to prove it!”

Qiao Mei looked at Xie Jing and Wang Wei and smiled mockingly. She took out a folder from her school bag and handed it to the teacher. “Here are my notes on the growth of the plants during this period of time. I hope you can take a look. ”

The dean opened Qiao Mei’s plant growth notebook. It clearly stated how much water the plants were given every day, the fertilization situation, the trend of the growth and the lighting conditions. There were also recordings of the dates when the strawberries germinated, the date when the strawberries bloomed, the date the first fruit was spotted and its location, among other details.

If that was all, it might not be enough to act as a basis to retain Qiao Mei’s results. After all, these records were also in the faculty’s planting notes. However, Qiao Mei attached three photos to every daily record. These photos were taken at different times each day, in the morning, afternoon and evening. Furthermore, these were color photos so the growth process was documented clearly.

During this period of time, everyone had witnessed the growth of Qiao Mei’s strawberry plants. The photos in the notebook were the same as what everyone remembered. Everyone present could testify for Qiao Mei.

“In that case, Qiao Mei’s results can be retained,” the dean said in satisfaction..
