Chapter 1244: Confrontation
At this moment, Principal Qu experienced for the first time what it means to be unable to explain one’s innocence, no matter how much one tries. He gritted his teeth, which immediately began to make a creaking sound. This silent venting already conveyed his innocence to everyone; however, the eyes staring at him remained hot. Principal Qu took a deep breath and said, "I really don’t have anything related to the Heavenly Dog, truly."
No one made a sound.
"Alright, since you say you don’t have it, let’s assume you don’t." Hong Jiang said, initiating the first question to Qu Hongqiang: "Then, in front of everyone here, answer the first question:
Did you go to the place where Ye Lin perished back then?"
Principal Qu furrowed his brow.
Hong Jiang laughed and said, "Don’t say you haven’t been there, some lies can get you into trouble."
Principal Qu’s face fell and he said, "Yes, I went, so what? That doesn’t prove I took the remnants of the Heavenly Dog."
After saying this, he waited for Hong Jiang’s continued aggressive questioning, but unexpectedly, Hong Jiang said, "Okay, you went. That proves I wasn’t lying earlier. Alright, I’ve asked what I wanted."
Principal Qu: "..."
Principal Qu gritted his teeth, "You..."
Hong Jiang looked at the others with a smile and said, "Actually, I don’t care whether Old Qu took the Heavenly Dog’s remains or not, because I have no use for them, and I can’t repair them. If he can fix them, why not give him the remaining parts I have?"
With that said, Hong Jiang didn’t stop and continued aloud, "Even if the Heavenly Dog is recreated, be it the Heavenly Cat or Heavenly Bird...it’s fine, as long as the Biological Mecha can be replicated, it would be a blessing for the nation and its people. Why should I fear?"
