“…”
After this statement, the entire hall fell into silence.
All eyes were focused on Ying Yuexuan.
Pei Tianyi was especially unable to accept it.
Everyone has their own biases, and while adhering to the rules and regulations, he had always favored Ying Yuexuan.
Within the extent of his privileges, he could pave a smooth, unobstructed path for Ying Yuexuan.
After all, she was his junior sister.
But Pei Tianyi had never imagined that the one who really stole the experimental data was Ying Yuexuan.
And Ying Yuexuan had even transferred this experimental data to Ying Zijin’s computer.
The timing was too coincidental, and the evidence too clear.
Whether Pei Tianyi wanted to believe it or not, he had to.
“Yuexuan,” Pei Tianyi’s jaw clenched, “present your evidence, as long as you can prove you have nothing to do with this.”
Ying Yuexuan’s nails dug into the palm of her hand.
Being watched by so many people, she felt surprisingly calm: “Senior brother, do you really believe her?”
“I said fingerprints can easily be faked. Who knows if she deliberately waited for this moment to try and frame me with such a big accusation?”
Teng Yunmeng’s baby face turned red with anger: “Then tell me, why would Zijin fake your fingerprints? What about you is worth forging?”
“She doesn’t even want to follow her path, does she have the spare time to forge your fingerprints?”
Apart from Pei Tianyi, no one else, including Teng Yunmeng and Feng Yue, knew the affairs of the Ying Family.
Ying Zijin had never mentioned it.
Actually, Pei Tianyi also didn’t know about the true and false daughters of the Ying Family and the events that followed.
Only Shanghai City and a small group of people who participated online in the Ying Luwei incident knew the real beginning and insider story.
Teng Yunmeng had not even seen Ying Yuexuan before and had no idea who she was.
But having interacted with Ying Zijin for so long, she believed in Ying Zijin unconditionally.
Hearing these words, Ying Zijin slowly turned her head: “…”
She was unsure if Teng Yunmeng was trying to slander or defend her.
But it was a fact.
In the technological world, where is it like the Spirit Cultivation World she had been in before, where you could float or teleport hundreds of miles at will?
Even the most powerful ancient martial artist could only develop the body’s potential to its limits.
“That’s laughable,” Ying Yuexuan sneered, “then you might as well tell me, what can I do by doing this, and what benefit does it give me?”
“Besides this mini wireless USB drive that doesn’t even know its real owner, what other evidence is there?”
She absolutely couldn’t admit it.
Once she admitted to such a thing, her future path in scientific research would indeed be blocked.
Science has no borders.
Whether in O continent or Hua Country, the universities and professors on both sides are connected.
Apart from the secret research involving the interests of major clans, these scientific community leaders frequently exchange information and the latest scientific discoveries with each other.
If this issue was conclusively determined, within three days, all major laboratories would know her name and add her to the blacklist.
She could not let this happen.
Ying Yuexuan pursed her lips, showing a mocking smile on her face: “Who doesn’t know you, Ying Zijin, are also acquainted with professors from Imperial Capital University? As far as I know, this mini wireless USB drive has been sold within Imperial Capital University, and with your good relationship with Professor Zuo Li, you couldn’t buy it?”
The Department of Computer Science does have exchanges with the Department of Physics, but did Ying Zijin have the authority to have the Department of Computer Science retrieve last month’s surveillance video?
If Ying Zijin invaded the Department of Computer Science and forcibly took it, she would also be blacklisted.
“It looks like it’s needed,” Ying Zijin raised her hand and knocked on the table, “Give me the phone.”
The Investigation Team Leader immediately returned the phone to her.
Ying Zijin took it, tapped a few times, dialed a number, and put it on speaker.
After three rings, the call connected.
“Hello, Teacher Luo, this is Ying Zijin.” The girl’s voice was indifferent, “Someone has falsely accused me of stealing experimental data, and we need the cooperation of the Department of Computer Science to vouch for me. Please provide me with the surveillance records from the warehouse where the mini wireless USB drives are placed for the past two months.”
On the other side was a woman’s voice, very straightforward: “Alright, I’ll retrieve it right now. Please wait a moment.”
Upon hearing this, Ying Yuexuan’s complexion changed once again.
She knew this Teacher Luo, who wasn’t at the professorial level but was in charge of managing most of the affairs of the Department of Computer Science.
She was also in charge of the surveillance room.
How did Ying Zijin know Teacher Luo?!
Ying Yuexuan could not calm down completely, a cold sweat breaking out on her back.
She wanted to leave immediately, but it was impossible.
Pei Tianyi kept his eyes on her, his gaze growing increasingly disappointed.
Fifteen minutes later, Teacher Luo transmitted the surveillance footage to Ying Zijin’s computer.
Two months of surveillance footage is lengthy, and reviewing it will be troublesome.
“The matter must be thoroughly investigated,” Ying Zijin leaned back in her chair, composed, “Go ahead, I don’t know which day it was either.”
“Don’t worry about that, we have a facial recognition system that can directly match the relevant footage,” the Investigation Team Leader gestured to his team member to input Ying Yuexuan’s identification photo into the software, “If we have wronged you, please accept our apologies.”
“It’s fine,” Ying Zijin replied indifferently, “It’s only human, I can understand.”
With the facial recognition system, the matching footage was quickly found.
The date was April 27th, at three in the afternoon.
Pei Tianyi was also watching. After viewing the footage, his heart went completely cold.
The surveillance clearly showed Ying Yuexuan indeed taking a Mini Wireless USB Drive.
The motion seemed casual, as if she accidentally stuck it to her hand without noticing.
The Investigation Team Leader’s expression turned cold, “Stealing experimental data and framing others, it’s one crime on top of another.”
“Yes, I did take a Mini Wireless USB Drive.” Ying Yuexuan’s fingers were trembling severely, and she withdrew them into her sleeves, “But how can you prove that this Mini Wireless USB Drive is mine?”
Ying Zijin lifted her eyes, her gaze cool as snow, “It seems that indeed, you are not qualified enough.”
Ying Yuexuan shook with anger, “Ying Zijin! Even now, you still don’t forget to belittle me?”
The cell phone rang at this moment; it was a call from Teacher Luo.
“Zijin, you were right,” Teacher Luo said gravely, “Indeed, a Mini Wireless USB Drive is missing, with the code 78.”
Ying Yuexuan’s face turned white.
A Mini Wireless USB Drive, with a code?
How could she have not noticed it?
The Investigation Team Leader picked up that round metal piece again and examined it closely before bursting out, “This is Morse code.”
On the metal piece were several lines and dots, appearing chaotic but actually representing two numbers.
Two lines and three dots represented the number “7”; three lines and two dots represented the number “8”.
The code, 78.
Morse code was invented in 1837 and is an early form of digital communication mode, as well as a binary code.
Ying Zijin had not studied it, nor had she specifically learned about it.
It was only because she heard Professor Zuo Li mention it.
The computer science professor responsible for designing the appearance of this type of Mini Wireless USB Drive was very interested in codes like Morse code and the Enigma.
Therefore, when designing, he incorporated these elements and boasted that if he didn’t point it out, people from other departments would not understand it.
Ying Yuexuan turned pale, her body beginning to tremble.
Those dots and lines represented Morse code?
She indeed noticed them but failed to discern any pattern, considering them mere decorations.
With evidence laid out, there was no room for Ying Yuexuan to argue any further.
Pei Tianyi clenched his fists, unable to calm himself.
“Speak,” the Investigation Team Leader said icily, “Aside from framing others, where else have you placed this experimental data?”
“Nothing, there’s nothing,” Ying Yuexuan gave a desolate smile, “All this experimental data belonged to my senior brothers, how could I possibly leak it?”
She only wanted to sever Ying Zijin’s path; she had not intended to drag Pei Tianyi into this.
If she had known the leak of the experimental data would get Pei Tianyi expelled from the research base, she would have found another way.
“Take her away,” the Investigation Team Leader had no desire to argue with Ying Yuexuan, “If you’ve tampered with anything else, be prepared to spend your time in prison.”
Now with conclusive evidence, the Investigation Team could directly take Ying Yuexuan away.
And at that moment, Ying Yuexuan, as if realizing something crucial, suddenly looked up, “You did this on purpose!”
Indeed, she had taken advantage of the moment when the investigation team opened Ying Zijin’s computer to start scanning it, and transferred the files from the Mini Wireless USB Drive into it.
Because at that time, the firewall was up.
This way, Ying Yuexuan could take the opportunity to transfer the files she had stolen onto Ying Zijin’s computer.
But now, she suddenly realized an important issue.
Ying Zijin’s computer skills were not poor; even with the firewall up, her transfer could have been blocked.
How could it have gone so smoothly?

Ying Zijin stood up, pouring herself a glass of water, “I already said, you’re not that important.”
The leak of the experimental data from the lab area was something she had been aware of since the night before.
As one of those who had entered the Core Area, she was certainly under suspicion.
So, she had made preparations in advance.
After arriving at University Town, Fu Yunshen had given her a detection device.
This device could detect trackers and other electronic products that emit signals.
It is a must-have for IBI agents and team leaders; it can’t be bought on the market, not even on NOK forums.
From the twenty bombs alone, one could see how many restless forces had set their sights on this international competition.
