Versatile Mage Chapter 1486 - Busybody

1486 Busybody

Edited by Aelryinth

Whats the point of staying here? Dont even bother meeting force with force; this is her territory, she can say whatever she wants. Dont worry, we will make her pay for what she did to you! Professor Li said.

I cant leave her here after seeing what kind of a person the woman is! Mo Fan looked at Li Yue.

For some reason, news about Amelias death had spread wildly throughout the school. The students would eventually learn the truth. Headmistress Perry could not afford to let the school fall into a panic before the Casas arrived. She had to settle the matter immediately. She used the blood-tracking magic artifact and discovered traces of Amelias blood on Li Yue.

With the evidence and her first impression of assuming envy was the motive of the murder, she strongly believed Li Yue was the murderer. Once she settled the matter and used the remaining few days to suppress the news from spreading any further, she could easily get the situation under control before the Casas arrived!

Headmistress Perry insisted on doing it her way. Li Yue was unable to explain where the traces of blood were from. Even if she did not punish Li Yue, if the culprit did not show up again, Li Yues reputation was going to be ruined forever...

Even though Mo Fan was confident that the culprit was going to strike again, he would not allow Li Yue to suffer for no reason!

Headmistress Perry, its possible that Li Yues shirt is stained with Amelias blood when she was taking care of the Snow Lavenders. Li Yue often helps Amelia with the Snow Lavenders. She might be the suspect, but we cant just judge her guilty so easily... Brianca spoke up. She and Heidi had both arrived.

Headmistress Perry glared at Brianca anxiously. It was so quick that no one noticed it.

More people had arrived. Apart from Professor Li, Professor Zheng, Brianca, and Ceylan, a few other teachers with high positions in the school were here, too. The students had gathered in a few circles. Headmistress Perry could not afford to act ruthlessly in front of them.

I never said she was the culprit. I was just going to interrogate her intensely. If shes the murderer, she might panic and admit what she did, but someone kept interfering with it instead! Headmistress Perry said.

Did Li Yue say anything, then? Brianca asked.

She hasnt said anything yet, the leader of the patrolling squad, Jessie said.

Mo Fan looked at Li Yue. He was relieved that Li Yue had not said a word. They might twist her words and use them against her, especially after seeing how Headmistress Perry desperately wanted to get it over with in order to receive the representatives of the Casas!

Mo Fan was only trying to protect his friend. Why did you attack him? Brianca asked.

Attack him? Miss Brianca, Im afraid thats a little exaggerating. Feel free to check if hes injured. If theres even a little scratch on him, I will apologize to him right away, Headmistress Perry sniffed.

I always thought I was considered shameless in this world, but compared to Headmistress Perry, Im as innocent as a newborn, Mo Fan mocked her promptly.

Headmistress Perry was like a vicious old hag when there were not many people around. However, her tone and demeanor changed completely when the crowd showed up, as if she was being just and fair.

Brianca had been at the school for many years. How could she not know how Headmistress Perry treated the students that did not obey her? Even though she was not here, she knew Headmistress Perry had used her mental attack on Mo Fan. Judging from Professor Li and Professor Zhengs attitude, she might have cast an illusion on him, too!

The illusions of the Psychic Element were absolutely terrifying. It was not appropriate to use them on a person with a weak mind. The Magic Association had clearly forbidden Psychic Mages from using it, but not only did Headmistress Perry do so, she was using them on a student!

If we arent sure shes the murderer, lets release her first. Well ask someone to keep an eye on her if you think she might try and do something. Heidi, Sheryl, you two will be staying with Li Yue for the next few days, Ceylan said. She did not want the situation to worsen any further.

Its better to lock her up! Headmistress Perry insisted.

That is a little too inhumane. If thats not enough, well ask her to put on a magic bracelet. We will know where she is at all times, or I can personally keep an eye on her. What does Headmistress Perry think? Brianca replied evenly.

Headmistress Perry felt like she was about to explode. She had purposely asked the patrolling squad to detain the girl without notifying any teacher so she could get it over with and stop the news from spreading through the school. To her surprise, Mo Fan was able to drag it out until everyone was here!

Since two of our teachers have insisted, I wont be unreasonable with it, but I must clarify, if anything happens again, you two will have to bear the responsibility... Headmistress Perry said.

If its really Li Yue, it goes without saying that we will bear the responsibility, but even if shes not the culprit, as the teachers of the school, we will try our best to find the culprit to guarantee the safety of the students. We have neglected our job by putting the students in danger, Brianca said.

Headmistress Perry stormed off in a huff. The patrolling squad was dismissed too, but many students were still talking about Li Yue.

Li Yue was a new student with an unknown background. They did not know why she had come to the school, not to mention her sensitive relationship with Amelia. After all, the teacher in charge did mention that they only needed one gardener, which meant only one between Amelia and Li Yue was going to stay.

Many students assumed Li Yue had plotted to take Amelia out. She had purposely killed the little creatures so they might think that someone was getting their revenge at the Alps Institute to make her less suspicious.

It was plausible; if Mo Fan did not know Li Yue beforehand, he might even have believed it.

Thank you, Li Yue went up to Mo Fan. Her eyes were rippling, not as calm as before.

Any man wouldnt back off in that situation, Mo Fan smiled, although it looked terrible.

How sweet... Li Yue whispered.

What did you say? Mo Fan did not hear it clearly.

The girl that you like must be very happy, if you can already go so far for someone youve met by coincidence. I can imagine the things you would do if a person you loved was in the slightest trouble, Li Yue said.

Mo Fan was startled. Xinxias face suddenly crossed his mind, and the teary eyes that represented the mixed feelings she had when she was looking at him.

You are adding some picturesque charm to it, when all I did was being a busybody. Youre indeed a great person to talk to, Mo Fan replied.

Li Yue giggled. Her eyes were clear and pretty, her smile pure and natural.
