Fang Yiqing frowned and asked Ruan Zilu, "How did you get into this state? You were perfectly fine the last time I saw you."
Fang Yiqing remembered that when he saw Ruan Zilu eight days ago, she didn't have so much blood on her.
Ruan Zilu shook her head and chuckled softly, "It's nothing, just a little accident."
Xi Yu keenly noticed the wound on Ruan Zilu's hand. Although it had begun to scab over, it was clearly a cut made by a military knife.
She and Fang Yiqing exchanged a glance, both knowing without saying that Ruan Zilu had probably gotten into a fight with other candidates.
After the last candidate had gathered, Principal Luo Hong went up to a high place and gave a brief speech to all the candidates.
Through Principal Luo Hong's explanation, Xi Yu learned that 168 candidates had dropped out midway through the exam, and the scores of the others would have to be added together with their written exam scores.
Suddenly, a series of loud screams came from inside the warship. Xi Yu couldn't help but look over and found that it was Wei Zi, who was sitting in a wheelchair, shouting something.
"I refuse to accept this!! I was framed and my mutated core was stolen!" Wei Zi screamed frantically. Ignoring the instructors' attempts to stop her, she ran out of the infirmary and caused a scene during the principal's speech.
Xi Yu felt Wei Zi's venomous gaze sweep over them. Then, pointing her finger at Ruan Zilu, she shouted fiercely without regard for anything else, "She stole my main core! And she injured me!!"
Ruan Zilu's face drained of color. She shook her head in terror, frantically protesting, "No! No, I didn't, I... it was you..."
Ruan Zilu now looks like her lie has been exposed, and her explanations are so hesitant and illogical that they raise suspicions. Many examinees are giving her suspicious looks, which makes her increasingly flustered.
"You dare say you didn't injure my leg?!" Wei Zi pointed at her injured leg and sneered.
Ruan Zilu wanted to explain, but in this situation she didn't even dare to speak loudly, so how could she argue with Wei Zi?
Wei Zi sneered triumphantly, seizing on Ruan Zilu's poor communication skills and relentlessly slandering her.
Ruan Zilu was so panicked she was about to cry. Everyone was looking at her with malice, making her unable to lift her head.
Suddenly, her hand, which had been hanging down, was gripped tightly, as if a force was being passed on to her. She quickly looked up and saw the trusting eyes of Xi Yu and Fang Yiqing.
"Don't lower your head. Never lower your head as long as you haven't done anything wrong." Xi Yu said calmly, holding her hand. Her cold eyes stared directly at Wei Zi, making the other woman feel a chill in her heart.
Fang Yiqing patted Ruan Zilu on the shoulder: "You're right. It's just a mad dog bite. Just fight back. If you can't beat it, I'll fight for you."
Ruan Zilu's eyes immediately reddened. Even if everyone doubted her, she still had friends who believed in her!
Xi Yu stared coldly at Wei Zi and asked in a neither loud nor soft voice, "You said Zi Lu stole your main core? And injured you?"
Her voice wasn't loud, but everyone could hear it clearly.
Wei Zi felt a sudden panic, but she still clung to the claim: "It was her who did it!!"
Xi Yu sighed and raised her chin slightly: "Since you put it that way, then please ask the school to pull up the surveillance video to verify it."
Wei Zi's head was buzzing, and the 'surveillance video' that Xi Yu had mentioned kept flashing through her mind.
"You don't actually think the school wouldn't set up surveillance cameras during such an important assessment, do you?" Xi Yu added sarcastically.
Wei Zi's face was as white as paper, and Xi Yu's soft laughter seemed to mock her act.
