Chapter 124 Ancient Town Photography Exhibition

When Ji Lin heard the news, he prepared several surveillance devices and placed them in the system space. In Ji Lin's memory, it seemed that there would be incidents of photo theft and fighting at this ancient town photography exhibition.

After all, in the world of "going through the same window together", every time the main characters go out of school, some messy things happen.

Ji Lin seemed somewhat indifferent to the works he submitted for the exhibition. He simply picked an ordinary landscape photo from his many camera pictures as if to get by.

Before we knew it, the day of the official opening of the ancient town photography exhibition arrived.

According to the regulations, as students, they need to arrive at the site a day in advance to start setting up the exhibition area, while their class teacher will arrive before evening.

When the group finally stepped into the ancient town photography exhibition, Yu Hao was like a wild horse that had broken free of its reins, instantly losing control.

Completely disregarding the opinions of those around him, he kept pointing at the photos displayed by other classes, making "tsk tsk tsk" sounds from time to time, and mercilessly criticizing other people's work.

As the gazes of students from other classes turned like sharp swords towards Yu Hao, the atmosphere suddenly became tense.

At this critical moment, Lu Qiaochuan reacted quickly and rushed forward, covering Yu Hao's incessantly chattering mouth tightly, and apologized repeatedly to the angry classmates with a face full of remorse.

Without bothering to explain further, he quickly grabbed Yu Hao's arm and jogged to lead him to their class's exhibition area.

By the time everyone had finally finished setting up the exhibition, it was already night, and Ye Jiping had arrived at the ancient town.

After some discussion, everyone decided to have a meal at a restaurant that was famous in the ancient town.

This restaurant is said to be a top choice for photography students to dine almost every year, and this year it has come up with a special event.

Couples dining together can enjoy a discount, and upon hearing this news, the three couples in the class naturally wouldn't miss such a great opportunity.

However, getting this discount isn't so simple. The restaurant stipulates that couples need to order separately and also kiss in public to prove their relationship.

This request immediately enlivened the atmosphere, and the students began to cheer.

Encouraged by everyone, Ji Lin didn't hesitate to hug Lin Luoxue tightly and kiss her passionately. Meanwhile, Zhong Bai, Lu Qiaochuan, Xiao Haiyang, and Li Shuci, who were on the other side, appeared somewhat shy and reserved.

Nevertheless, urged repeatedly by those around them, they still awkwardly touched their lips lightly.

For boys, such behavior might not be too embarrassing, but Zhong Bai and Li Shuci were already blushing with embarrassment. They hurriedly found a seat, lowered their heads, and dared not look at the others.

After the meal, Ye Jiping suggested that everyone go back to the exhibition area to take another look before returning to their lodgings together. So, the group headed towards the exhibition area with great enthusiasm.

Since everyone had drunk some alcohol at the dinner table, they were all unusually excited. But as they stepped into the exhibition area, someone suddenly asked in confusion.

"Oh dear! Have I had too much to drink? It seems like two of the photos on the wall are missing." Upon hearing this, the others crowded around to take a closer look.

After checking, everyone was surprised to find that two photos were indeed missing, and they happened to be the two photos taken by Xiao Haiyang and Lu Qiaochuan.

Faced with the theft of the photos, Xiao Haiyang's unique and magical thought process not only made him feel no sadness, but also made him overjoyed and full of pride.

He believes that during their meal, a thief must have broken into the exhibition area and stolen the photo because he really liked it.

As a result, he couldn't help but feel a strange sense of accomplishment—after all, among the many photographic works of all the students in the class, the quality of Xiao Haiyang and Lu Qiaochuan's photos was really not flattering, and could be said to be at the bottom.

Especially Lu Qiaochuan's photo, which is just a simple and crude headshot.

Seeing this, Yu Hao couldn't help but launch into a tirade, shouting, "That despicable thief has such terrible taste! He actually chose to steal Xiao Haiyang and Lu Qiaochuan's photos, but ignored my excellent work! Is this guy blind?"

Just when everyone thought their work might have been forgotten somewhere, Ji Lin quietly transmitted the footage Xinghai had captured through surveillance to his own phone.

With a slight upturn of his lips, he said confidently, "Don't bother looking! I already know where those two photos of Xiao Haiyang and Lu Qiaochuan are."

After speaking, Ji Lin enthusiastically waved to the people around him, inviting them to gather around and watch the surveillance video together.

As the video played, viewers saw two boys walk into their class's exhibition area together. The two boys first scanned all the works in the exhibition area with great interest, and then stopped their gaze on the works of Lu Qiaochuan and Xiao Haiyang.

They shook their heads, seemingly muttering something, and then one of them said, "Let's just take these two. Even if we lose them, no one will bother to look for them."

The other person nodded in agreement, and then the two exchanged a knowing smile and reached out to take the two works of art.

After the video finished playing, Ji Lin began to patiently explain to everyone.

When setting up the exhibition area, Ji Lin placed several surveillance cameras at the four corners of the area. These cameras were cleverly placed in relatively hidden and inconspicuous locations, yet they were able to monitor the entire exhibition area from all angles without any blind spots.

Moreover, it's worth mentioning that these surveillance devices not only capture incredibly clear and vibrant images, but they can even perfectly record sound.

Then, Ji Lin looked at the information provided by Xinghai and found that the two people in the surveillance video were from photography classes at other schools.

After thoroughly understanding the ins and outs of the matter, Ye Jiping made a decisive move and led Ji Lin, Lu Qiaochuan, and Xiao Haiyang straight to the exhibition area of ​​the person who stole the photos.

Upon arriving at the exhibition area, Ye Jiping quickly spotted the two students and swiftly located their supervising teacher.

Then, Ye Jiping bluntly recounted the entire incident to the teacher in charge, while Ji Lin pulled up the crucial surveillance video and handed it to the teacher.

Faced with irrefutable evidence, the teacher in charge immediately became serious.

With a stern expression, he launched into a profound and serious critique of the two students who had made mistakes.

Under the teacher's authoritative presence, the two students appeared somewhat fearful and uneasy. They lowered their heads and quietly explained to the teacher why the incident had occurred.

It turns out that everything stemmed from a few unintentional complaints Yu Hao made when he first arrived in the ancient town, which made them dissatisfied and led them to do such an absurd thing.

After listening to the students' explanation, the teacher in charge softened his expression slightly, but still solemnly warned, "No matter what, this behavior is immoral and wrong. I hope you can recognize your mistakes and correct them."

Then, the two students took out the photos they hadn't yet thrown away from their backpacks and respectfully returned them to Xiao Haiyang and Lu Qiaochuan.

Finally, Ye Jiping apologized again to the teacher in charge, saying, "I'm really sorry to have troubled you. But we still need to correct the children's mistakes in time to prevent them from causing bigger problems in the future."

The teacher in charge was very understanding and responded with a smile, "It's alright, it's alright. My students were indeed wrong this time. I will definitely educate them properly when we get back."

After the matter was resolved satisfactorily, just before leaving, Ji Lin suddenly turned around and said meaningfully to the two students, "Now that the matter has been resolved, let's all get along peacefully from now on."

"But I must warn you, I have lots and lots of surveillance cameras here. If you have any other ulterior motives, you'd better think twice about the consequences!"

After saying that, Ji Lin punched a wall, creating a fist-sized dent in the wall while controlling his strength.

After Ji Lin left, the two students looked at each other and stared at the fist-shaped dent in the wall. After touching it, they both swallowed nervously.
