The crime scene was the artificial lake in the school. The cleaner that was cleaning the lake found the corpse and called the police.

When Ming Shu arrived, the crime scene had been cordoned off by the police. Someone was fishing something from the water. The corpse was already brought up and the forensic expert was examining it.


Why did someone die…



Did she commit suicide or was she murdered?



Someone died again. Last term, someone died too. This is so scary.



The students started whispering and their voices floated over. Yi Xiaoxiao, who was so lively just now, appeared very quiet and kept close to Ming Shu. She looked really serious.

After looking for a while, the police asked the teachers to disperse the students and not let them gather around this area. The students were easier to deal with that those busybodies from outside so once the teachers acted, most of the students listened to them.

Ming Shu left with the crowd. She was surprised to see the boss standing not far away holding a pure white Ragdoll in his arms. His haggard look seemed a little cute when you combine it with the adorable-looking cat.

Ming Shu separated herself from the crowd and walked toward the boss. She stood by his side.
Do you know the culprit this time?


The boss held the Ragdoll and rolled his eyes.
I am not God. How will I know?


Ming Shu was surprised.
I thought that you knew everything.


The boss continued rolling his eyes.
You think too highly of me. Should I thank you?


Ming Shu glanced at the Ragdoll in the boss’s arms.
Do you think that she committed suicide or was it murder?


The boss muttered,
Both are possible. How would we know?



You can guess.



The boss turned and looked at Ming Shu. He was puzzled.
Why should I guess? I’m not the police. There are professionals investigating the case. Are you very free?


Ming Shu pulled up the corners of her mouth.
I guess that the victim died during the night three days ago. That night, I saw you. Say, will you become the biggest suspect?



Are you suspecting me?
The boss finally got it and received a shock.
Don’t say such nonsense, you little bastard.


He paused and then sneered.
If she really died at that time, you and Teacher Bei Tang were there too. You are suspicious too.


Ming Shu shrugged nonchalantly.
I didn’t kill anyone. I’m not afraid of investigation.



As if I’m scared of investigation.
The boss sneered.

Ming Shu left him with a mysterious smile and turned to leave.

The boss looked really angry. He was so nice to her but this was how she treated him. What a waste of his kindness!

I will not give her any sweets anymore!

–


The time of death was confirmed to be three days ago between 11pm and 1am.

This was the time that Ming Shu and the boss met in the school.

The police concluded that she died from drowning for now.

This meant that… the possibility of committing suicide was higher.

The police found Gao Tong’s boyfriend. He didn’t dare to hide anything and told them everything. He told them that he planned to meet Gao Tong but didn’t see her in the end. He only received her message.

He had been looking for Gao Tong these past few days too. He thought that Gao Tong didn’t want to see him and was purposely hiding from him.

Who would have thought that Gao Tong was dead.

The police asked him if anyone was present to act as his witness. The guy was forced by the police and told them about Ming Shu and Bei Tang.

Ming Shu was asked to give her statement.


Name?




Nan Zhi.



Age?



16.5.



…


After asking the basic questions, the police went into the topic.


On the 12th of November, when did you leave school?



Do you have a drink?
Ming Shu asked the policeman.
A soft drink would be best.


The policeman:
…


Although this person was suspicious now, she was not a suspect yet. She was just asked to cooperate with the investigation. The policeman asked someone to pour some water for Ming Shu. There were no soft drinks.

Ming Shu finished the drink and replied slowly,
I don’t remember. You can ask my teacher, he should remember it.



The policeman asked,
Why don’t you remember?


Ming Shu shrugged and looked really innocent.
Policeman, brother, I am very sleepy at night. Who will go and look at the time?


The policeman choked. He continued,
Why were you still with your teacher in school at such a late time? There is no nighttime self-study in your school and your classes end at 6pm. After 7pm, all the students have to leave school with the exception of those who reside in school. The information says that you don’t live in school.


Ming Shu smiled cunningly.
If I say that he has evil intentions toward me, will you all catch him?


Bei Tang, who was nearby, shivered. Why did he feel that someone was plotting against him?

The policeman on Ming Shu’s side gave a serious look.
Student, please think carefully before you say this. This kind of thing cannot be anyhow said.



He has evil intentions toward me. If not, why would he ask me to stay back in the middle of the night to copy my homework?


The policeman’s eyebrows jumped. He said after a while,
Yi Hai said that you all tied him up that night. Is that true?



I am a little hungry.



Please answer my question.



I will answer after I eat.
Ming Shu leaned against the chair and smiled calmly.
I don’t want to answer anything before I eat.



…


No matter what the policeman asked, Ming Shu just smiled. She wore an emotionless smile.

Yes, an emotionless smile.

The smile seemed to be carved on her face. When you looked at it for the first time, it seemed cute and vibrant. However, the more you looked at it, the scarier it got.

Her emotional stability was so good even the people in the police station admitted it. The verteran police outside analyzed for them.


This little girl is either a psychopath or an innocent person.


Ming Shu wouldn’t open her mouth if she had no food. The policeman had no choice but to ask someone to buy food for her.

After she got her snacks, Ming Shu was easier to speak to.
I tied him up because he looked suspicious. He was still loitering in the school so late at night so I wanted to ask him some things.



What do you want to ask him? Why do you think that he is suspicious?



I felt that there is a big secret in Qingyun.


The policeman was stunned.
What?


Is this your reason for tying someone up? Just because you feel that there is a big secret, you tie someone up?!

Who taught you law!

The policeman found his voice after some time.
What big secret do you think Qingyun has?



If I knew it, would I still have to tie him up? Policeman, why don’t you all help me to investigate?



…


Guards!

Drag this little bastard out!

What the hell, was she here to play with them! They were really busy with the case too!


Nan Zhi, I have to declare that there will be punishment if you hinder our investigation.



Be reasonable. I answered what you asked me to answer. You all don’t believe me and say that I hindered your investigation. Can’t you all can’t tell black from white now?



…


He couldn’t continue the conversation.

The policeman got up and left. He needed to calm down outside. A new person came in soon after, but the results were the same. After talking for a moment, the conversation stopped. He asked everything that he was supposed to ask but no useful information came out of it. They couldn’t prove that she was involved at all. She didn’t even know who Gao Tong was and had no interaction with her.

Although Ming Shu kidnapped someone, she didn’t kidnap him for 24 hours and didn’t do anything to him. Hence, they couldn’t file a report against her. After the questioning, they released her unwillingly.

Bei Tang had finished already and was waiting outside for her.

He asked softly,
Are you all right?



I wasn’t the one who killed her. Could they force the charge on me?


The policeman that sent her out:
…
 I am still here! I am still here!
