Chen Mo shook his head with a helpless smile as he watched Ye Zi leave. Chen Mo always had an inexplicable factor in his heart when it came to Ye Zi.
Bai Yang put his arm around Chen Mo's shoulder and said with a smile, "The little girl has grown up and has her own opinions. Moreover, there is another man by her side. Chen Dui, you don't feel good about it, do you?"
Chen Mo rolled his eyes at Bai Yang and waved his hand away. "You're crazy. I've always regarded the little girl as my sister."
Bai Yang smiled as he watched Chen Mo's receding back. "Chen Dui, it's not too late to chase after him. Do you want me to help you?"
Chen Mo turned his head. "I'm warning you, don't mess around. I don't want to ruin my image in the little girl's heart. "
Bai Yang shrugged. "Then you better pray for your own good luck."
…
Ye Zi pulled Xu Zian to the corner of the teaching building. She poked her head out and secretly watched Chen Mo leave. Only then did she breathe a sigh of relief.
Xu Zian was suspicious and patted Ye Zi's shoulder. "I say, what did you do to make you so afraid of the police?"
Ye Zi turned her head and said, "Who did anything wrong? I just … You won't understand even if I tell you. However, thank you for appearing in time just now."
Xu Zian smiled. "You're welcome."
"By the way, do you know who Du Rui is?" Ye Zi asked the question she wanted to ask.
Hearing Du Rui's name, Xu Zian was startled. He looked as if he had been hit by a martial arts master. He froze on the spot and didn't know what to do.
Ye Zi looked at Xu Zian and blinked. "Do you know?"
The expression on Xu Zian's face was extremely awkward. He braced himself and nodded to Ye Zi. His tongue seemed to be in a knot as he stammered, "I, I know, she, she is my, my student."
Ye Zi smiled and patted Xu Zian's chest. "That's great. Can you take me to Du Rui's dormitory?"
"That …" Xu Zian pondered for a moment and said, "Turn left at the female dormitory. I still have classes, so I won't take you there."
After saying that, Xu Zian quickly disappeared in front of Ye Zi as if he was running for his life.
Ye Zi stared at the direction in which Xu Zian had left and scratched her head in bewilderment.
What did she just say?
She just asked Xu Zian to take her to the female dormitory. Why did he have such a big reaction?
After a moment, Ye Zi felt relieved. She shrugged and smiled faintly. After so many years, Xu Zian was still the same as when he was in middle school. He still didn't know how to deal with girls.
Gurgle …
Ye Zi just turned around, frowned and covered her stomach. She muttered, "Damn it. If I knew that I would have a stomachache, I wouldn't have eaten the ice cream given by the Panda."
"I knew that the Panda didn't have any good intentions."
Ye Zi stopped a classmate casually. "Classmate, can I ask where the bathroom is?"
"It's in front."
"Thank you."
Ye Zi quickly ran into the bathroom. A man ran out in a hurry and bumped into Ye Zi.
"Ouch."
Ye Zi was already in a hurry, and because she was running too fast, she fell on her butt when the man bumped into her. This time, her stomach hurt even more.
Before she could see the man's face clearly, she saw him flash past in front of her.
Ye Zi couldn't help but frown. Looking at the man's figure, he didn't look like a high school student.
Teacher?!
Ye Zi's lips twitched. The teachers nowadays actually had this kind of quality.
She simply stopped thinking about it. She stood up from the ground, dusted off her clothes, and walked into the public bathroom.
"Hualalala …"
In the male and female public area, the sound of running water could be heard. Ye Zi walked over and looked at the faucet. Then, she looked in the direction that the man had just left.
"What kind of manners is this? I hope he doesn't remember to turn off the faucet."
She glanced at a pair of gloves beside the sink. After thinking for a moment, she thought that it should be the man's. She picked it up and placed it in an eye-catching position at the door. If the man noticed that his gloves were missing, he would probably come back to look for it.
Then, Ye Zi walked into the bathroom.
"Comfortable."
When Ye Zi came out of the bathroom, she felt refreshed. She inadvertently glanced at the gloves at the door, where she had just put them.
The man must have forgotten that he had lost his gloves beside the sink.
She couldn't be bothered to care about other people's business. She quickly walked to the female dormitory.
…
Bai Tingting was still in the pain of Du Rui's death. She couldn't get over it for a long time. On the contrary, Wei Man looked much more energetic than when Chen Mo had asked her.
She hadn't eaten much all day. Wei Man took out a box of instant noodles and handed it to Bai Tingting. "Do you want some?"
Bai Tingting shook her head. She sniffled hard and said, "I don't have much of an appetite."
Wei Man sat next to Bai Tingting and wrapped her arms around her shoulders. "Silly girl, we are all sad because of Xiao Rui's death. But no matter how sad we are, we still have to eat. I see that you haven't eaten anything all day. Why don't I make you a packet of instant noodles?"
Bai Tingting frowned and looked at Wei Man. She nodded reluctantly.
Wei Man smiled. "That's a good girl."
Then, she picked up the thermos. Just as she held it in her hand, she realized that there was no hot water left. She walked to the door of the dormitory.
As soon as the door opened, Wei Man saw a young and beautiful girl standing at the door. She frowned slightly and asked, "Who are you looking for?"
Ye Zi said, "Hello, I'm Du Rui's cousin. I heard that something bad had happened to her, so I wanted to come to the school to take a look."
When Wei Man heard this, her expression changed. Her pearl-white face looked even paler now. She forced a smile and turned her body to the side. She gestured towards the dormitory and said, "Please, please come in."
Wei Man welcomed Ye Zi into the female dormitory 3044.
She looked around the dormitory. It was clean and tidy. There were three beds and the quilts were neatly folded. One look and one could tell that the girls who stayed there liked to be clean.
Wei Man took a chair and placed it on the floor. "Please take a seat."
Ye Zi smiled and sat down. Then she looked at Wei Man and Bai Tingting. "Are you two Xiao Rui's classmates?"
Wei Man shook her head. "I'm Xiao Rui's senior. Tingting is her classmate."
Ye Zi nodded. "Then do you know if Xiao Rui has any close friends in school?"
Wei Man and Bai Tingting looked at each other. "We do."
"Oh." Ye Zi nodded again and smiled faintly. However, there was a tinge of sadness in her smile. She looked as if she was really sad about her cousin's death. But she forced a smile and said, "I really have to thank you for taking care of Xiao Rui."
Ye Zi pointed at the empty bed. "Is this Xiao Rui's bed?"
"Yes." Bai Tingting nodded.
"Do you mind if I help her pack her things?" Ye Zi looked at Wei Man and Bai Tingting. She seemed to be asking for their opinion.
The two of them didn't say anything. They just watched as Ye Zi sat on Du Rui's bed and started to tidy up Du Rui's belongings.
On Du Rui's bed, there was a photo of her and Wei Man, Bai Tingting, and her. From the photo, it was obvious that the three of them had a good relationship.
They were all at the age of a flower and were full of youthful smiles.
But now, Du Rui was killed at such a young age. Ye Zi couldn't help but feel sorry for Du Rui. She was a good student in the eyes of her teachers and a good friend in the eyes of her classmates. What a pity, what a pity …
Ye Zi kept the photo and was ready to return it to Du Rui's parents. Now, Du Rui's parents should still be in grief. To be able to do something small for them, Ye Zi was doing her best.
Her relationship with Du Rui was merely that of the deceased and the informant. Ye Zi only wanted to find out what exactly was the reason for this murderer to kill such a flower-like young lady.
Ye Zi chatted with Wei Man and Bai Tingting as she tidied up. "How's Xiao Rui's homework?"
"She's one of the best in our class," said Bai Tingting.
Ye Zi nodded and asked, "Oh yeah, I almost forgot. Is there a boy Xiao Rui likes in class?"
Seeing that Bai Tingting and Wei Man's expressions were a little ugly, Ye Zi smiled faintly and said, "She liked our class monitor when she was in high school. He was the sports committee member …"
Bai Tingting and Wei Man looked at each other, seemingly unwilling to talk about it.
After a while, Bai Tingting shook her head and said, "Xiao Rui has high aspirations. She doesn't like the boys in our class."
"Oh." Ye Zi smiled and did not say anything else.
After a while, she tidied up Du Rui's belongings and said goodbye to the two girls before leaving the female hostel 3044.
Ye Zi stood outside hostel 3044 for a long time with her belongings in hand.
She had a feeling that the two girls, Wei Man and Bai Tingting, were hiding something from her.
At the mention of whether Du Rui had a boy she liked in school, a subtle change appeared on their faces at the same time.
Du Rui must have a boyfriend in school, but Ye Zi had no idea who it was.
After walking out of the hostel, Ye Zi saw Chen Mo. He crossed his arms in front of his chest and looked at Ye Zi with great interest.
Chen Mo smiled faintly and raised his brows slightly. His thin lips parted slightly and he asked in a deep voice, "Done looking at your friend?"
Ye Zi smiled sheepishly and walked up to Chen Mo. She stammered, "Y-Yes."
"Heh!" Chen Mo sneered. "If I remember correctly, your friend was a man. Did you guys meet in the female hostel?"
Ye Zi felt like she had lifted a rock and smashed it on her own feet.
She nudged Chen Mo lightly and said with a smile, "I knew it. I can't hide anything from you, Brother Chen Mo. Don't look like you're interrogating a criminal."
Chen Mo shook his head helplessly. "This case has nothing to do with the detective agency. You'd better go back."
"Brother Chen Mo, I'm also trying to help the victim find the real murderer. Moreover, I'm indirectly helping the police, isn't I …"
Before Ye Zi could finish her sentence, Chen Mo suddenly interrupted her and said in a deep voice, "The police only need you to take care of yourself. In the future, don't interfere in such matters. Give me the thing, and I'll return it to the victim's family."
Ye Zi pouted and puffed up like a balloon. She stuffed Du Rui's belongings into Chen Mo's hands. "Here."
"What did you ask?"
Chen Mo suddenly asked as the two of them walked out of the First High School side by side.
Ye Zi glanced sideways at him. "Didn't you say that you didn't need my help?" Was he still worried about not being able to find the latest chapter? Amway a public account: r/d/444
