The Zephyr Academy was quiet as usual, as if nothing had happened.
Idle disciples could be seen everywhere in the academy. They walked around in groups of three to five, giggling.
When Jun Wu Xie walked into the academy, she did not attract anyone's attention. She passed through the main road and walked towards the bamboo forest at the side.
Just as she was about to enter, a young man suddenly let out a cry of surprise.
"Jun Xie? You are Jun Xie? "
Jun Wu Xie turned her head to look and saw a youth wearing the Spirit Healer faculty emblem on his chest. Jun Wu Xie looked at him expressionlessly.
The man seemed to realize that he was too emotional, so he smiled embarrassedly.
"My apologies for scaring you. I am a disciple of the Spirit Healer faculty. I have not seen you for a long time and I was a little surprised to see you here."
"What's the matter?" Jun Wu Xie asked.
The man scratched his head awkwardly and said, "It's nothing, but are you going to the bamboo grove?"
Jun Wu Xie nodded.
"That … there is no one in the bamboo grove now. No one has taken care of it for a few days. Do you want to go back to the dormitory?" The man opened his mouth stiffly, wanting to get closer to Jun Wu Xie but he had nothing to say and could only make up some random words.
When Jun Xie and Fan Zhuo had left the Zephyr Academy, besides Fan Jin and Fan Qi, no one else knew about it. Everyone had thought that Jun Xie had left because of Gu Li Sheng's instructions, and Fan Zhuo had been sent away by Fan Qi on the pretext of going out for treatment.
"No one else? Where's Fan Jin? "Jun Wu Xie raised an eyebrow.
Before returning, she had been wondering if Ning Rui would make a move on Fan Jin after killing Fan Qi.
If Fan Jin was still around, even if she and Fan Zhuo were not in the Zephyr Academy, he would not have allowed the little bamboo grove to be left empty.
The man was slightly taken aback and a strange expression came over his face. He immediately looked all around him and after ascertaining that there was no one else around, he then took a few steps into the forest, and beckoned at Jun Xie to come over.
Seeing that the other party obviously had something to say to her, Jun Wu Xie followed behind him.
"You haven't been in the academy during this period of time, so you might not know, but the dean … was killed half a month ago."
Jun Wu Xie looked at the man calmly.
The youth continued, "Do you know who killed the dean?"
Other than Ning Rui, who else could it be? Jun Wu Xie laughed coldly in her heart, but her face still showed an expression of utter disdain.
"It's Fan Jin!"
Jun Wu Xie's eyes widened slightly.
That person said in a low voice, "When the headmaster died, he and Fan Jin were the only ones in the study. Before the accident, the guards in the courtyard heard their quarrel. When they went to investigate, the headmaster was already dead …"
Fan Qi's chest was pierced through by a sharp sword, and he died on the spot. When the locked door was pushed open, Fan Jin was the only person in the room, and he was holding a bloodstained sword in his hand.
At that moment, everyone knew that Fan Jin had killed the dean!
Fan Jin and Fan Qi were father and son, and there was no reason for Fan Qi to have killed Fan Jin. It was hard for anyone to believe that Fan Jin had been killed. However, Fan Qi had always treated Fan Jin as his adopted son, while Fan Zhuo was his real son. This had been done out of kindness to protect Fan Zhuo, but who would have thought that it would end up pushing Fan Jin to the brink of death!
Everyone in the Zephyr Academy knew that after the Headmaster retired, the position of the Headmaster would always be handed over to his son or daughter. Fan Qi had two sons. One was the highly reputable Fan Jin in the Zephyr Academy, and the other was the frail and sickly Fan Zhuo.
