"Can you be sure?" Song Yan also realized something was amiss, and Yang Xiao fell silent instantly, regarding the male teacher with a subtly changed expression.
It was only after the male teacher had left that Yang Xiao finally spoke, "Principal Wu, it may not be appropriate to say this, but I don't recognize this male teacher. Can we trust what he says?"
"Of course, his brother is in our town's criminal police force," emphasized Principal Wu, "his own brother."
"Mr. Chu, are you perhaps too nervous?" Teacher Xu Yu looked at him with concern.
Seeing Principal Wu's certainty, Yang Xiao slowly nodded, dispelling his doubts, "The two of you, I'm not that I don't trust him, it's just that what we are about to do cannot afford any mistakes, and the information I've received is that Pei Qiuyu was taken away by the police."
The situation was now quite clear: the version of events provided by the crew and the male teacher's account did not match up; someone between them must be lying.
