Jiang Jincheng was silent, but suddenly he laughed. He reached out and rubbed Xiao Ling's face, and said with a little frustration: "Are you disappointed in me? I'm not what you think."

"will not."

Xiao Ling gently held Jiang Jincheng's slightly rough hand and rubbed it affectionately: "It doesn't matter what Uncle Jiang is like. As long as Uncle Jiang is the way he is in my heart, it doesn't matter what he is like in other people's hearts..."

"Uncle Jiang may be different from what I thought. I thought Uncle Jiang would never be afraid and would always be the most powerful one..."

"It doesn't matter anymore. It doesn't matter what Uncle Jiang is like."

Xiao Ling moved closer and said word by word: "Because no matter what you do, you can't change the fact that you are my Uncle Jiang."

Jiang Jincheng was stunned for a moment and then laughed out loud. He rubbed Xiao Ling's head tiredly. Xiao Ling took the opportunity to hug Jiang Jincheng's neck and leaned on his shoulder lovingly.

"I should have comforted you when I saw Uncle Jiang was so upset, but I went too far and asked you to cheer yourself up again..."

Xiao Ling gently grabbed the corner of Jiang Jincheng's clothes and whispered, "You are obviously the most tired and uncomfortable in this matter...but I don't care about your feelings..."

"You're just a kid, you don't know shit. I won't bother with you."

Hearing the sound, Xiao Ling gently sat up. Jiang Jincheng then realized that Xiao Ling was much taller than him. Although he was sitting on his lap, he was still able to cover Jiang Jincheng under him.

"I am not young anymore, Uncle Jiang."

Xiao Ling seemed to be very concerned about Jiang Jincheng's dislike of his young age. He leaned against the wall with both hands and moved closer to Jiang Jincheng, looking at him very seriously: "I am already over the legal age for marriage... I am already 25..."

"I'm really... not young anymore... uncle..."

"Hmmmm, not too small."

Jiang Jincheng laughed and scolded, "I haven't seen you actually find a date yet. If you have the time to hang around me, you might as well ask your dad to introduce you to some people."

Hearing this, Xiao Ling sighed and shook his head: "The person I like thinks I'm childish... I may need to hone my skills for a few more years..."

"You are indeed childish."

Jiang Jincheng smiled deliberately, as if teasing him: "What the little girl said is not wrong. You need to change your temper. You are impulsive, childish... and you like to cry."

"It's not nice for a grown man to cry over such a small matter."

Xiao Ling pursed his lips and said "hmm", then suddenly asked, "Uncle, you don't like me doing this, right?"

"Ok?"

Jiang Jincheng frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and shook his head: "I'm fine. It doesn't matter if you are young and childish. I don't mind you being childish."

"But you really need to change your crying habit. What grown man likes to cry? I'm saying something I shouldn't say. If you get married in the future, will you still cry when you have sex with her?"

"cough…"

Xiao Ling choked and his face flushed. He turned his head away and said "hmm" softly.

"I'll change... I'll change everything uncle said..."

...

Zou Yu and Ke Dong remained silent on the way back. Only when they saw Wen Fei's body with their own eyes and felt the sudden death of a living person who had been chatting with them just a few minutes ago, did their fear of death suddenly increase.

Only when people truly face death will they feel fear.

"Kodong... I don't understand what Melantha revealed..."

Zou Yu looked at him tiredly and forced a smile: "What kind of scandal would make a living person completely lose hope in life..."

"Kedong, I was really scared when I saw Wen Fei's body... I was afraid that if we went in the wrong direction... one day my body would appear..."

Zou Yu grabbed his hair and choked up a little, "Even someone as brave as me would be afraid... How desperate must that transfer student be when he decided to commit suicide..."

"How desperate must it be to completely give up the will to live..."

"What we should do now is to adjust our mindset and find a way to get information about Melantha from Han Yao after we meet up with them tomorrow."

Ke Dong sighed, and although his face looked calm, his trembling arms betrayed his inner fear.

"We definitely can't directly ask about the transfer student's identity and cause of death. Zhou Yi is very wary of us. It's hard not to suspect that she has colluded with Han Yao just to be on the safe side. She must be able to guess that we are already suspicious of them, and they will definitely find a way to get information out of us."

Zou Yu was silent for a moment and suddenly spoke: "Kedong, I was actually thinking... even if we knew the identity of the transfer student... and the cause of his death... what's the use?"

"It's already dead. Its death is a foregone conclusion. There's no way to change it..."

"We know the cause of his death, but what can we do? Can we die with a clear mind? Can we remember what sins we have committed?"

Ke Dong's train of thought was interrupted by Zou Yu's sudden question. He moved his mouth in silence and finally said, "There must be a way... The transfer student didn't kill all of us at once, which means there is still hope... It's giving us time to investigate..."

"Well... I hope..."

Ke Dong stopped and opened his phone and messaged all members in the group: Wen Fei is dead, we can't stop her from entering the school, nor can we stop her from being killed.

Zou Yu received the group message and looked at him in surprise: "Why are you saying this?"

"Do nothing."

Ke Dong calmly put away his phone and whispered, "It just wants to let those who still have a fluke know that some things that should be made public cannot be concealed."

Zou Yu was stunned for a moment and then understood what Ke Dong meant: "You want to use the repeated failures and the fact that they died again and again to stimulate Zhou Yi and Han Yao, and let them know that if the things you want to conceal are not made public, then this matter will never end!"

"Yes."

Ke Dong laughed and narrowed his eyes slightly: "If they don't cooperate with the investigation, then we will force them to know the progress of our investigation. Their fluke is nothing more than thinking that there are other solutions to this matter. It doesn't matter if they don't make those ugly things public. As long as we find other solutions, we can solve this matter!"

"But after all other methods have failed, there is only one solution left... they have no choice."

"What do you think... do they want to die with their sins, or do they want to make their sins known to the public and live on?"

Zou Yu hesitated for a moment and shook his head, slightly worried, "Aren't you afraid that they will just fight to the death and let everyone die together?"

“Afraid, but…”

Ke Dong turned around and suddenly said, "Han Yao may still have a conscience."

"We can find a breakthrough from her. Think about it, she is indeed avoiding the topic of transfer students and Melantha, but what is the difference between her and Zhou Yi?"

Ke Dong said it directly without waiting for Zou Yu to speak: "She joined our investigation team."

"She could have remained silent or avoided the topic like Zhou Yi, but she chose to join the investigation."

"Zou Yu, I have a guess now..."

"The Melantha account may have originally belonged to Zhou Yi, not Han Yao."

Zou Yu was stunned and subconsciously wanted to refute, but Ke Dong gave him a reason that made him terrified when he thought about it carefully.

"Zou Yu, Melantha suddenly appeared at that time, and the explosive information it revealed was stronger and faster than Han Yao's... Before it appeared, we relied on Han Yao to keep up the good news."

"Han Yao would tell us directly in the group or in class when he had news. He never kept us in suspense or procrastinated. But Melantha was different."

Ke Dong found a bench by the roadside and sat down, then propped up his face with his hands and said, "Melantha's revelations were just a few words at first, which made everyone suspicious. She kept everyone on edge for a week before revealing the news at night."

"Do you think if Melantha was Han Yao, she would have waited so long before revealing the news? She has a very talkative mouth..."
