Chapter 440: Chapter 317 Who Are You Exactly

This was indeed a very simple request; a body search would suffice.

Moreover, under the current circumstances where everyone’s life was at risk, even if one was reluctant, there was a necessity for a search.

Furthermore, Hart was already suspicious of Leaf’s strange behavior after the incident, so, just to be cautious, Hart had no objection and even expressed his support:

"Alright, if you think this will prove something, then go ahead with the search, it’s not a particularly troublesome matter."

Soon after, everyone turned to look at Leaf and said, "Is that alright? We just need to do a quick search, and it will be settled swiftly."

"I..." However, Leaf seemed extremely reluctant; she even hastily stepped back, apparently trying to escape.

But...

"...Thud!"

Just as Leaf looked towards the door, she found that Six was already standing there, having closed the door.

"Ugh...!" Leaf’s complexion immediately turned extremely ugly; she knew she could not escape!

"Don’t think about escaping," Six stared at her and said solemnly, "Here, in this dangerous environment, we must unite to have a chance of survival. So... please cooperate with us."

"It’s just a search; it’s no big deal." Seeing her act so abnormally, Hart spoke with a stern face, "As long as we confirm you don’t have anything suspicious on you, we won’t make it difficult for you. After all, our interests are aligned. But... why are you resisting so much?"

"Leaf, I’m sorry for suspecting you." At this moment, Wei’er also slowly approached Leaf, "but if you just let us see if you have Lin Huixue’s cell phone to prove your innocence, then... please be honest. I think you also don’t want to get hurt, right?"

"I... I..."

Seeing the hostile looks from others, Leaf’s face was filled with alarm, and she was on the verge of crying.

At that moment, Leaf noticed that one person did not display any malice but rather had a look of watching a drama.

Xiao Yi seemed completely relaxed, as if all of this had nothing to do with him, and he was merely a spectator.

Although Leaf was previously afraid of and disliked Xiao Yi, at this moment, he was the only one who did not exhibit any hostility towards her.

This made Leaf let go of her concerns, instinctively running towards Xiao Yi, and subsequently taking refuge behind him, as she pleaded to Xiao Yi.

"Please... help me!"

Xiao Yi’s response was:

"Hmm? Okay..."

"...What?"

Upon hearing Xiao Yi agree to help, everyone was startled, including Leaf herself.

Leaf: "...What? You really agreed to help?"

The others also changed their expressions, finding it suspicious that Xiao Yi would offer to help the very dubious Leaf; they did not know how to respond.

At that point, Hart thought of something and asked Xiao Yi:

"Xiao Yi, do you perhaps have some new discovery or idea, believing that Leaf is not the accomplice of the true culprit as Wei’er suspected?"

"No, you are overthinking it..." Xiao Yi said, "My offer to help doesn’t mean I’m taking sides, but rather, it’s about resolving the problem completely and without conflict."

Xiao Yi then looked at Leaf again and said:

"I can help you, but I’m not familiar with the specific situation, so I can’t discuss how to help you. Thus, whether I can help you depends on you.

Instead of letting others find the cellphone on you, which might make them completely distrust you regardless of your explanations, it’s better to be honest and take it out yourself. This way, at least everyone can listen to your explanation calmly. Tell us everything you know."

Leaf remained silent for a moment, then finally nodded, "Yes, you are right. I’m very panicked. Thinking that everyone would target me, I was greatly frightened and lost my senses."

Leaf said this and then took out a cell phone from her possession.

"Is that... Lin Huixue’s cell phone?" Hart asked with a frown, "Really... it was on you."

"Yes... her phone is really in my possession." Leaf said excitedly, "But! I don’t know how this happened! I only found out her phone was on me suddenly! Please listen to my explanation!"

Everyone exchanged glances, then turned to look at Xiao Yi.

"There’s no way." At that moment, Hart was the first to speak in response, "Since Xiao Yi has spoken like this, let’s hear your explanation."

"I have no objections," Wei’er immediately added.

Six also said, "Going by the principle of the minority following the majority, even if I opposed now, it wouldn’t matter, right?"

Seeing that everyone was willing to listen to her explanation, Leaf sighed in relief, looked at Xiao Yi, and softly said "thank you."

Then, Leaf turned to everyone else and slowly explained:

"Actually, I only noticed Lin Huixue’s cellphone with me recently. When I found it, I was so scared, scared that everyone would view me as the criminal, so... I was very afraid that this would be discovered, which is why I acted like that."

"Suddenly appeared?" Hart touched his chin, apparently pondering something.

"I... I know this isn’t very convincing..." Leaf continued, "but... apart from saying this, I don’t know how else to explain it because I really don’t know anything! No... not right, saying I know nothing is also not accurate."
