Ever since the divisive scheme sent shockwaves through the group, Zhang Yue and Ziyan had not rested for a single moment. Their hearts held only one thought: to uncover the truth as quickly as possible, clear Shorty's name, and restore unity and trust to the team.
Zhang Yue and Ziyan knew well that to unravel the conspiracy behind this, they had to start with the seemingly conclusive "evidence" and carefully peel back the layers to find the flaws. They first focused on the alleged testimony of Shorty talking with the mysterious figure. Zhang Yue spared no effort in visiting every single team member who claimed to be a witness, questioning them in detail about what they had seen at the time. However, as the investigation deepened, inconsistencies began to emerge. Some witnesses contradicted themselves and stammered when describing the events; others had shifting gazes and shifty words, instinctively avoiding eye contact whenever Zhang Yue looked directly into their eyes.
"There's definitely something fishy going on here," Zhang Yue said, frowning as he analyzed the situation with Ziyan. "The testimony of these witnesses is full of holes. It's obvious someone is behind the scenes telling them to make up lies."
