Close to a Culprit

Emma felt that someone was staring at her face. Her nerves were tense, but she had difficulty staying awake. She struggled for a moment and slept for another half an hour before waking up.

There was no one others in the room. Emma held her head and suddenly felt a little pain all over her body, as if she had been beaten. She got out of the bed, and shouted softly, "Stony?"

She couldn't remember how she came back last night. She tried to sober up while walking out, planning to ask Stony.

Jaquan was shooting eggs outside. The egg sprayed everywhere. He was not a good student, for he failed to learn the essence from Emma.

Emma prepared to go to the bathroom first, and then helped him. She casually glanced at the corner of Jaquan's mouth and saw a bruise, as if he had been beaten.

She was a little surprised. "Who hit you?"

Jaquan looked at her and opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything.
