Chapter 398: Can’t Believe It
Translator: Zayn_
Gu Xingchen only appeared in front of everyone when it was ti for dinner.
Yu Muhuai was not by his side.
Jiang Xu Yan gave up a seat for the other party and let Gu Xing Chen sit in the middle.
“Where’s Xiao Yu? Isn’t Xiao Yu with Teacher Gu?”
“Yu Muhuai? 1 didn’t see him.” Gu Xingchen shook his head and said, “After 1 went back to the school doctor’s office in the afternoon, I went to the various ghost stories locations to take a look. Then, 1 ca straight to the cafeteria. Wasn’t he working with you guys?”
The six of them looked at each other.
“Brother Yu, could it be…”
Before Tang Zinian could say anything, Yu Muhuai arrived late.
There were very few people lining up for dinner at this ti, so he sat down in a few minutes.
“I went to the washroom for a while,” Yu Muhuai replied calmly.
Regardless of whether the others believed him or not, he did not explain further.
In fact, Yu Muhuai had gone near the red maple tree and successfully found a place where the body might have been buried.
Facing the laboratory building, the third tree from the left.
There were traces of mud under the tree and obvious strangulation marks on the tree.
At the sa ti, this tree was next to the one Song Qingyou had climbed last night.
Song Qingyou said that she climbed up the tree to check every tree.
He just didn’t know if she chose to hide the fact that she had climbed the problematic tree or if she didn’t climb it…
If Song Qingyou was a suspect, then Xu Xingzhou, who had a close relationship with her, would most likely be one of the suspects.
Yu Muhuai narrowed his eyes slightly, wondering if these two were the murderers.
He was silent, deep in thought. In the eyes of Tang Zinian and the others, he looked like he had a lot on his mind. This ant that Yu Muhuai was hiding sothing from them. Sothing was wrong.
After the al, the eight of them tacitly parted ways.
Song Qingyou said that she was going to investigate the other student in the poisoning case.
Zhao Yingnan and Tang Zinian both had this plan, but they decided to investigate separately.
Yu Muhuai wanted to go to the laboratory building. On the surface, he said that he wanted to see if there were any clues that had been overlooked, but in fact, he wanted to find tools to see if it was necessary to dig up the thing buried under the tree.
Xu Xingzhou, Gu Xing Chen, and Jiang Xu Yan also investigated the other ghost stories.
Shu Ling was very suspicious of Yu Muhuai and Gu Xingchen, so she imdiately thought of the school doctor’s office and Student Sun.
She walked at the back and waited until she was sure that the two people would not return to the school doctor’s office before taking a detour.
The door to the school doctor’s office opened with a twist. The female student was indeed still inside.
“Student Sun?” Shu Ling walked over.
The girl on the hospital bed turned to look at her, then lowered her head without any intention of responding.
“I’m the only one here now. Can you tell how you got all those injuries?”
The girl shook her head and remained silent.
“Could it be related to school ghost stories?” Shu Ling asked again.
The person on the bed still shook her head.
“What can you tell ?”
Shu Ling said helplessly.
She was a little suspicious. Was this the kind of NPC conversation in the ga that could only be triggered by luck?
Seeing that the other party still didn’t respond, Shu Ling thought about it and told her about the group of people who were scared last night.
“…We didn’t expect that soone would jump off the building during the day when we only saw a corpse hanging from a tree at night.”
“I don’t want to hear about this,” said Student Sun.
Don’t want to hear it?
Shu Ling hesitated for a mont before deciding to continue.
“Then 1 won’t talk about the recent case. I’ll talk about the first case.”
“The first case we investigated happened three years ago. The person who went missing was a student council mber-”
This sentence seed to activate a switch. The girl on the hospital bed suddenly raised her head and slamd her hand on the bed. “Enough! Don’t tell these things! 1 don’t know anything!”
After all, he was not a professional actor and did not have a good grasp of his emotions. It was obvious that he was acting.
Shu Ling understood that she had successfully triggered a conversation, so she asked,”
“Why can’t I say it? Since you don’t know anything, why are you reacting so strongly?”
“Are you afraid of this, or are you hiding sothing?”
Shu Ling asked a few questions in a row, but the girl didn’t respond.
She pondered for a mont. “Could it be that the person who jumped off the building last night had sothing to do with you?”
Student Sun remained silent.
“Or is it that the first student council mber who went missing three years ago has sothing to do with you?” Shu Ling continued guessing.
The girl suddenly raised her head.
Shu Ling struck while the iron was hot.
The girl pursed her lips. After a long while, she finally spoke. “Don’t tell anyone. As long as you don’t tell anyone, I’ll tell you what 1 know.”
“Alright, go ahead.”
Plan pass!
The girl lowered her head again. “My brother was also a student here three years ago. He was high school classmates with the student council mber you ntioned. He could be considered a friend. Before that person disappeared, my brother suddenly went crazy because of a shock…”
“What’s that person’s na?” Shu Ling asked.
With the na, he could find more information.
The girl said a na honestly and then said, “The student council mbers are usually very busy. My brother often hangs out with him outside school. I think my brother’s shock must have sothing to do with this disappearance case, but I haven’t heard anything about it…”
“Did anything happen before your brother was provoked?”
“I heard my brother and the others say that they wanted to borrow money from my parents. They said that they wanted to help a girl pay off her debts…That girl is missing too, I think… She’s the first person to go missing.”
“Is that girl called Huang Jiao?”
“It’s her.”
Huang Jiao was the second missing person that Shu Ling and the others had found out about. It was said that her brother was going to drag her away to pay off the debt.
If Huang Jiao was the first victim, then who was the murderer? Was it that scumbag brother?
“How much more do you know? Tell everything.”
The girl shook her head. “That’s all.”
“Have a good rest then.”
Shu Ling was a little disappointed. Thinking that she couldn’t stay in the school doctor’s office for too long, she got up and was about to leave.
Unexpectedly, the person on the bed suddenly grabbed her sleeve and looked straight at her. He said word by word,
“You can’t tell anyone about this.”
“No one can be trusted.”
“Other than you, no one else in school knows about my brother.”
“I understand.”
Shu Ling nodded in agreent. She called out to the caraman and walked straight out.
Because she was afraid of being seen, Shu Ling left in a hurry and didn’t notice that soone had been eavesdropping at the door for a long ti. Before she ca out, she even went around to the back of the school doctor’s office.
Shu Ling walked out of the school doctor’s office and headed towards the sports field, where she could easily bump into other people.
He didn’t expect to et Song Qingyou and the other two as soon as he arrived at the teaching building.
“Have you found that student?” Shu Ling walked over and asked.
“There’s no need to investigate.” Song Qingyou sighed. “He’s already a missing person.”
This also confird that there was more than one murder case last night..
