Above the Galaxy-Chapter 264 - 180, Wronged!_3

"Got it, got it, we won’t discuss... Did we discuss it? No, right?"

"Exactly, we don’t even know what happened..." 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

"I swear on the Moon Goddess’s honor, the Eldest Prince absolutely did not drop his trousers..."

-------

Originally, everyone was still skeptical, but when they heard Tang Fei say "Dean Si forbade everyone from discussing it," it only cemented their suspicions.

The Eldest Prince did it!

"Alright, alright, let’s not talk about this anymore. Aren’t you listening to Dean Si?" Chen Tianqi stood up and said, "We’re all new students, and it wasn’t easy to get into White Crane Academy. Let’s not get ourselves into trouble..."

"Fine, fine, let’s drop it."

"Yeah, let’s go back and hit the books."

"Anyway, we already know the outcome..."

------

The crowd dispersed in a hubbub.

Once everyone had left, Tang Fei turned to Chen Tianqi and said, "Why are you discussing these things with them? This matter is extremely sensitive. While the higher-ups are desperately looking for the murderer, you are all chatting away excitedly... Even if you didn’t do anything, what if someone reports you? Wouldn’t that be troublesome?"

"Do you think I wanted to talk to them?" Chen Tianqi said with a look of grievance: "They came over wanting to talk to you. You and Shen Xinglan were always with the Eldest Prince, so they thought you might know more insider details..."

"How would I know any insider information? I’m still totally clueless," Tang Fei sighed.

He looked at Chen Tianqi and asked, "Do you know if anyone took videos or photos at the scene?"

Chen Tianqi looked at Tang Fei and asked, "Why the sudden interest in this?"

"Just asking..."

Chen Tianqi went over to close the courtyard door tightly, then dragged Tang Fei into his own room by the arm, lowering his voice, "I have something good to show you..."

"What good stuff?"

"You’ll know when you see it."

Chen Tianqi unlocked his phone, rummaged through the gallery, and then played a video.

The video showed the scene where the Eldest Prince farted and wet his pants.

Tang Fei’s eyes widened as he looked at Chen Tianqi and asked in a low voice, "How did you end up taking this?"

"I was filming you... thinking it was rare for you to have the chance to sit beside the Eldest Prince, I figured I’d record a video for you... You could post it on your Moments or social media, and who knows how many people would be jealous of you... Accidentally, I caught this..."

"Got any Coke?" Tang Fei asked.

"Yeah. An ice-cold one?"

"Right, ice-cold. My throat’s really parched after talking all afternoon."

"I’ll get you one." Chen Tianqi turned and fetched the Coke for Tang Fei.

When Chen Tianqi came back with the Coke, Tang Fei was already watching the video for the second time.

"How is it? Thrilling, isn’t it?" Chen Tianqi asked with a chuckle.

"It is thrilling, but if you don’t want to invite trouble, it’s best to delete it..." Tang Fei handed the phone back to Chen Tianqi and said, "If photos or videos of today’s incident were to get out, the Royal Family would definitely track down the source... If they find these videos in your phone, how would you explain?"

"Should I delete it then?"

"Delete it. You’ve seen it now; there’s no point in keeping it." Tang Fei said, "It’ll only bring you trouble."

"Alright, I’ll follow your advice and delete it." Chen Tianqi nodded and agreed.

He located the video file, then pressed the delete button.

"All done."

"Yeah, don’t get involved with this matter. If anyone asks, say you don’t know; this has nothing to do with you... Make sure you remember what I said; I’m saying this for your own good."

"Understood." Chen Tianqi nodded earnestly, then looking at Tang Fei, he asked, "Judging by your tone... they’re still investigating?"

"Absolutely." Tang Fei pulled open a can of Coke and took a large gulp, saying, "Such an embarrassing incident, it really damages the dignity of the Royal Family..."

"Yeah, definitely." Chen Tianqi nodded appreciatively and said, "I felt embarrassed just watching it, let alone someone like... him..."

Tang Fei stood up and said, "Let’s stop talking about this, I am going to rest for a while. I’m tired."

"Oh, and thanks for the Coke."

"What’s there to thank? The fridge is full of it; just come and get one whenever you want."

"No problem." Tang Fei said.

Tang Fei took his Coke back to his room and sat on the couch to reflect upon the whole incident, reviewing to find any flaw in the process.

Before anyone else could notice, he needed to ensure he was prepared to patch things up or have a strategy in mind.

Now, there were two problems: first, the fact that the Eldest Prince had him pour tea was known, making people suspect that their relationship was not harmonious, and everyone thought he had poisoned the tea out of spite...

But everyone suspecting him actually made it easier for him to disassociate himself.

Because it was too obvious and too foolish.

Of course, the most important thing was, they would not be able to find any traces or evidence of him poisoning.

Even though the Royal Family doesn’t need evidence to kill...

But if he hadn’t done it, would they still kill?

Ling Yunxiao was a loyal dog of the Royal Family brought by Chen Fenglei, and at that time, he hadn’t had any issues or conflicts with the Eldest Prince.

Risk comes with taking action.

Considering today’s harvest, taking some risks was worth it.

The other problem concerned his master, Xuanyuan Mingjing, who knew a bit more than he had expected...

Tang Fei was clear that, with Xuanyuan Mingjing’s protective nature, as long as the Royal Family had no evidence, they would have no way to come to White Crane Academy to take anyone, and they could hardly do anything to him openly.

He was his guardian angel, a critical link in the entire plan.

Unfortunately, he had seen through the Dead Water Curse and suspected it was his doing...

His stance was hard to determine, though he seemed to be leaning towards him.

To err on the side of caution, the best approach would be to silence him.

But considering his status as the Great Grandmaster, let’s forget it, he was his respected teacher...

For now, spare his own life.

Tang Fei took off his watch from his wrist, activated the virtual screen, which displayed a newly received message.

He opened the message, which was the video of Zhong Tianque creating a scene with a fart at the academy’s cafeteria...

Tang Fei took out another phone that looked a bit more antique from the box, then copied the video into it, entered a series of numbers, and sent it to the only contact on that phone.
