There was a sharp edge to Man Shahua's voice that made Fu Xinjie say a little unhappily,"We have tried our best..."

Liu Dazhi gestured to Fu Xinjie to stop her from saying more and said to Man Shahua: "Miss Man, I am sorry. If we could be of service the next time, we are at your disposal!"

Man Shahua rolled her eyes and said, "Forget it, you've worked hard and had a wasted journey. I will send a big red envelope to your WeChat account later."

After that, she did not wait for them to answer and rushed into the school with Hua Yanyan.

Suddenly, someone on a skateboard whizzed past the two of them. The person approached Long Xi who was heading towards the teaching building and put a garland on her head.

Long Xi turned back, saw Yan w.a.n.gchuan, touched the garland and asked with a smile, "Is this for me?"

Yan w.a.n.gchuan flashed his two rows of sparkling white teeth, indicating a very happy expression. His smile was dazzling.

Long Xi was puzzled. Although she had known Yan w.a.n.gchuan for many years, she had never seen him smiling like this. Yan w.a.n.gchuan's normal smile was never this flashy.

Moreover, Yan w.a.n.gchuan even came to school on a skateboard today. He also wore a black back-to-front baseball cap with a skull on it.

In Long Xi's memory, Yan w.a.n.gchuan had never been to school by skateboard and never wore a baseball cap. Instead, it was Xiaolu who loved hip-hop and had the habit of going to school by skateboard and wearing a baseball cap and a back-to-front sun hat.

Long Xi was really curious. "Did the sun rise from the west today?"

Yan w.a.n.gchuan's eyes fell on her small hand held by Mo Kun. He suddenly felt a bit upset and appeared annoyed.

He asked, "Master Xi, you came to school together? Is this a date? Teacher-student love?"

"Master Xi? Only Xiaolu would address her like that. Yan w.a.n.gchuan has always called her Xiaolongnv."

Long Xi quickly drew back her hand and said, "We happened to meet at the door!"

Immediately upon saying this, she regretted it immediately and almost bit her tongue. She did not know why she said this. Maybe it was because she was frightened by the words "teacher-student love" or his unusual behaviour was affecting her emotions.

Yan w.a.n.gchuan's eyes lighted up when he heard her words.

Mo Kun was a little angry and immediately set about claiming his sovereignty without showing any sign of weakness, sort of like defending his territory, "We have embraced and kissed. We are just ordinary friends? Xixi, your explanation is so weak. What you said only gave yourself away! Even if we have made a date to go to school, so what? Even if we have teacher-student love, so what? As a last resort, I can quit my job! The reason why I became a teacher in your cla.s.s is because of you!!"

Yan w.a.n.gchuan's eyes scrutinized Longxi's blush and pretty face for a while. He seemingly wanted to hear her personal denial.

However, Long Xi lowered her head sheepishly.

His face suddenly paled, and then he snorted and pressed his lips firmly together. He pa.s.sed Long Xi without a word and went upstairs to the teaching building.

Long Xi raged at Mo Kun, "Why did you have to say this in public?"

Mo Kun said, "What I have said isn't a fact?"

Long Xi was speechless and ran upstairs in a fit of anger.

Mo Kun's face changed and he quickly caught up with her, took her little hand and said, "Don't be angry. My fault, alright?"

He looked around and n.o.body was around. He pointed at his face with his finger.

Long Xi got his point so she kissed him on his face. Mo Kun laughed.

This was how young lovers were. They were bickering just now but were reconciled in the twinkling of an eye.

The first lesson was a chemistry cla.s.s. Mo Kun entered the cla.s.sroom and gave a lesson in an orderly manner.

He had prepared well for the cla.s.s and his lecture was very good. Unfortunately, however, there were not many students who were paying attention. Female students were eyeing his good looks; Male students were criticising him silently, "G.o.d, what is going on here? Why was this man a.s.signed to be our teacher?"

After about twenty minutes, "Ding!" a video was sent anonymously to the school's big WeChat group. Everyone saw it and had the shock of their lives; their souls were almost separated from their physical beings.

Then everyone heard the commotion outside. A large group of students rushed through the corridor, went downstairs and ran toward the back hill.

Cla.s.s 3 students went to the back hill as well. Mo Kun did not stop them but followed behind.

Teachers and students crowded round the creek at the back hill.

They were staring at a big tree by the creek with frightened looks.

Long Xi edged her way in and saw a young obese man hanging from a large branch of the big tree. He appeared to be dead and the blood on his body had already coagulated.

Long Xi did not know him, but she felt that the way he died seemed familiar.

The body was naked and there were numerous wounds and bloodstains on it.

His mouth had been slit by a sharp weapon and then sewn up.

Right now, the manner in which he died was very similar to the death of Xu Xian'er, the female ghost, whom she and Yan w.a.n.gchuan had seen the other day.

Long Xi noticed that there was only a little blood on the ground under the big tree.

"In principle, there being so many wounds on the body, this should have caused serious bleeding." Therefore, Long Xi speculated that it was very unlikely that the murder had taken place at the site.

There on the trunk of the big tree were eight b.l.o.o.d.y vague red characters: Evil will be rewarded with evil; Blood will have blood.

Long Xi saw Jiang Ba standing next to the tree trunk, shaking like a lost dog.

She heard Jiang Ba involuntarily muttering to himself, "How could this be? How could Brother Chen die here?"

In addition to Jiang Ba, there were two teachers standing by the big tree. They were Mrs. Lin, the head teacher and Mr. Xu, the physics teacher.

Mrs Lin called the police. However, Mr. Xu crouched on the ground, holding his head and was weeping bitterly.

Long Xi was good at reasoning. Based on the above circ.u.mstances, she deduced that the male body was Chen Qiangjian who was in collusion with Jiang Ba and his death should be linked to the death of Xu Xian'er.

"Was the murderer Mr. Xu? Did he know the truth about Xu Xian'er death? But Mr. Xu is a kind-hearted man, who could not even bear to take an ant's life. Could he really do such a thing?"

While Long Xi was still speculating, Liu Dazhi and Fu Xinjie, the two policemen, arrived. They had received a case report sent by the Police Reporting Center and had rushed over immediately.

Mrs. Lin saw them and instantly welcomed them. She said, "Officer, I was the one who reported the case! I am a teacher at this school. He is not a student or teacher of our school. I don't know why he committed suicide here! No one comes here normally!"

Liu Dazhi then said, " Everyone, please leave the scene. We have to cordon off this place!"
