So I became a witch

"What exactly is going on?"

Ling Yu bit her lip, and said with difficulty after a long time: "Someone found me and Zhong Xu, and told us to kill Yan Hong, and we would get a lot of money. Of course we wouldn't do it, and then that person gave up and asked for the next best thing." , just let us give some strong laxatives, as long as he can't recover within a few days, in order to get money, we did, through a friend's relationship we got such drugs, and prepared a careful plan, absolutely It won't be discovered that we did it. But I didn't expect..."

"You mean the fake secret room that pretended to have locked windows?" I said casually, Ling Yu's body shook, it seemed that I was right.

"Sure enough, we still can't hide it from others..." Ling Yu said mockingly, "However, we definitely didn't poison you! Please believe me on this point!"

"Please calm down first, this is not something that can be proved by your words alone." I said calmly.

"You don't even believe me?" Ling Yu smiled miserably, "That's right, how could you believe such a thing so easily."

"I didn't say I don't believe it, but let's go through it from the beginning, maybe we can find the truth from it." I said slowly, "First of all, someone found you and Zhong Xu, let you Did you kill Yan Hong? Who is he? Why did you do this? And why did you find both of you?"

Ling Yu shook his head: "I don't know who he is. He always called me unilaterally. The voice is a processed mechanical sound. He doesn't even know the gender. The number he dialed back was just an empty number."

"Sounds pretty cautious."

"I don't know why he did this, maybe he simply resented Yan Hong. After all, there are not a few people who offended him because of his arrogance. As for why he came to us, it's probably because we are close people around him. Right? Don't look at him like that, he is very wary of unfamiliar people." Ling Yu said.

I nodded: "So that's it, I almost understand it. But there is one thing I don't understand. Why did he say at the beginning that he wanted to kill Yan Hong, but then changed his words to let him feel unwell within a few days?"

"Probably because I felt impulsive at first, so I decided to take revenge on him in a different way?" Ling Yu said nonchalantly.

"It's not that simple. What you said is that he changed his words because you disagreed. Besides, why do you emphasize these few days?"

"This... I don't know very well."

I said thoughtfully: "By the way, do you know anything related to Yan Hong these days? It doesn't matter how detailed it is, such as who is sick in his family, or what kind of banquet he is going to attend. .”

"Huh? I'm not very clear about these... Ah, yes, I remember one thing he said to me." Ling Yu suddenly remembered something and shouted.

"What is it?" I asked eagerly.

"He seems to have told me that he is going to prepare to attend a very important family meeting these days, and let me go anywhere to have fun...that's all I can think of."

"Family meeting? Can you tell me more about it?" I realized that it might be an important clue and said in a deep voice.

Ling Yu froze for a moment, as if she didn't expect me to care so much: "Well, it seems to be about electing a family heir or something..."

What the hell is this urban novel unfolding.

"In other words, his dad is going to make big news recently."

"Huh? It's not his father, it should be his mother's side?" Ling Yu corrected.

"Mother?"

"Well, although his father seems to be very powerful, it is his mother who is really powerful. His grandfather is said to be one of the first batch of overseas Chinese who returned to China, and he is sitting on a huge amount of wealth. Compared with his The father is much worse, he is just the husband-in-law."

"It feels more and more like an urban novel..."

"what happened?"

"It's nothing, I'm just talking to myself." I cheered up again, "In other words, that guy is equivalent to the first heir of such a hanging family?"

Ling Yu nodded hesitantly: "If there is no accident, it will be like this."

"So it's understandable for him to be so arrogant... Then, the heir of such a powerful family was killed by you, do you think they might let it go? Even I can see through your little tricks, do you think they will? Won't you come out?"

"That's why we didn't kill him!" Ling Yu suddenly became excited again.

"I told you to calm down. I really want to help you, but judging from the current situation, how do you think you are the murderer? Besides, do you remember anything else?"

In the end, Ling Yu just shook his head blindly, apparently giving up hope completely.

My voice became a little lower, and I tried to be gentle: "Don't be nervous, let me put it another way, who do you think would deliberately ask you to make such a 'prank' at such a critical time?"

"Didn't I say that most likely they are those who usually hold a grudge against him and know his family situation."

"No, it's not that simple. If we focus on family meetings, not revenge..."

Realizing something, Ling Yu suddenly raised her head.

"That is to say, someone wants to make him look bad at this family meeting, or doesn't want him to appear at all. The world is full of people, and I always think that people are creatures who act based on certain interests. If this assumption is true , who do you think will be the biggest beneficiary?"

"How could there be such a person!"

"Think about it. If my guess is correct, there will definitely be such a person. For example, his brothers and sisters."

"I said it all... No, I seem to have heard that he has a younger brother."

"That's it!" I exclaimed. "And what about him?"

"I just heard it mentioned by chance. His name seems to be Yan Wei. Unlike Yan Hong, he is a rather weak guy, so he has been staying at home for a long time without seeing outsiders. I really don't know about other things."

"If it was him, would it be possible for you to do this?"

"...Indeed, there is such a possibility. I have also heard Yan Hong say that the relationship between the two brothers is not very good, and they are even more like passers-by."

"Then, let's treat him as the number one suspect for the time being. Assuming that he asked you to use whatever method, as long as Yan Hong could not attend the family meeting, you chose to use strong laxatives, but you don't know why. It's become poison, isn't it?"

"Yes, that's it!"

"It's better to use the method of elimination. First of all, where did you get your medicine? This shouldn't be something that a student can get, right?"

"That is, from a friend... I'm sorry I can't say who it is."

"Even if you might be charged with murder?"

"..."

"Okay, okay, let's put aside who he is." I shrugged helplessly, "So, do you know the person with this QQ account?"

I took the small notepad I carried with me, wrote a string of numbers on it with a pen, tore it off, and pushed it in front of Ling Yu.

"This is... his QQ number! Why do you have this?" Her eyes became visibly flustered.

(It is expected that there will be a few more updates today... various liver activities this month, and finally have time by the end of the month, and the liver explosion is scheduled)

Chapter 96 Depicting the Maiden of Death (32)

That's right, this is exactly the QQ of the mysterious person I wrote down in Zhong Xu's room.

"Tell me first, who did it?"

"...It's Zhong Xu."

"In other words, Zhong Xu and that guy are the only ones who have been exposed to the medicine? If Zhong Xu changed it without authorization midway, the possibility is too low, that is to say... from the beginning, what you got was the poison, right? "

"This is impossible!"

"Tap, tap, tap, my ears...why do you think so? When he mistook me for Zhong Xu before, he said, 'Have you killed Yan Hong, right? This way we will soon I can get a lot of money' so what? And after being exposed, in order to protect myself, he asked me to come to you?"

"..."

I tried to find a trace of wavering on her face, but found that there was only an unexpected calmness and a little bit of freedom.

"It looks like that person is very important to you."

"..."

It seems that no matter what I say, she is going to pretend to be ignorant.

"Okay, let me guess the identity of that person. It must be someone you know. From this point of view, relatives, friends, or... lovers?"

"!!!" Her face finally loosened a bit.

"It seems to be right by me, but you are still Yan Hong's girlfriend on the surface, so let me make a random guess. As childhood sweethearts, you were robbed of love by Yan Hong, you out of some kind of The reason is why he became his girlfriend, and that person held a grudge against Yan Hong because of this. After learning about your plan, he probably replaced the original laxative with poison and gave it to you... a plot like this. Ah, by the way I said that the plot just now was all made up by me, how could such a bloody plot happen in reality... is it true or not?"

Ling Yu was visibly shaken, could it be that I was right?Even the development of an urban novel is too clichéd, right?

"He...wouldn't have done that."

"What reason do you have to guarantee this? According to what I just said, he has every reason to kill Yan Hong, right? Do you think it is possible for you to save him? If you have confidence in him, you should put that Tell me someone's information? Otherwise, he will be convicted of a murderer? Even so, is it okay?"

"..." As a result, Ling Yu fell silent again when it came to the question of the mysterious man.

I scratched my hair a little irritably, so women are troublesome creatures, what can I do to make her speak properly.Now that things have happened, it is absolutely impossible for me to let the clues that are well obtained escape from my nose.

Think carefully about other clues that can be used... By the way, there is also the starting point of all that.

"By the way, how about telling me all the information you know about Liang Qiao, and I won't ask about that person?"

"……Really?"

"Well, I promise."

If many pairwise corresponding points are known to be connected, and when only the last pair is left, then they must correspond to each other.This is the method of elimination. The so-called truth can also be proved by other methods, and the answers obtained will also be consistent.

Ling Yu breathed a sigh of relief, and after waiting for a while, he said slowly: "I didn't pay much attention to Liang Qiao's words. In class, she was as inconspicuous as a transparent person. But, I also I don't know why, but she is so inconspicuous that she attracted Yan Hong's attention. Of course, I'm not talking about attention in a good sense, but in terms of bullying."

"How long has this been going on?" I asked.

"It should have started half a year ago? At that time, I was not his girlfriend, so I didn't know very well."

"Half a year ago?"

"Although that guy is a complete villain, he is rarely impatient. If Liang Qiao is just used as a toy, he should give up in a short time, but this behavior has continued for half a year. The puzzling place. It seems that he doesn't just regard Liang Qiao as an object of bullying, but more like an object of hostility. But why does someone like her, who is soft to everyone, provoke Yan Hong What? It's really inexplicable."

"Nobody stopped?" I asked.

"Do you think there will be a guy in this school who is not afraid of him?" Ling Yu smiled wryly, "Don't say it was stopped, but everyone secretly rejoiced that they didn't become the target of bullying, and some girls even took the initiative Acting as a bully's helper is to please that guy."

"Can you tell me exactly what he did?"

"It's just... For example, ordering other girls to lock her in the bathroom, or forcing her to take nude photos, and letting a group of boys... Sorry, that's all I know, there may be some more outrageous things."

This is really... an act that even a scum would despise.For the first time, I had the idea that this guy deserved to die, but no matter what, I had to know the truth.

"What about her family? Didn't they say anything?"

"She is a single-parent family. There is only one mother in the family, and she is often not at home. As for her mother, it is said that she works as a table hostess in a nightclub. Other girls often laugh at her, saying that her mother is a bitch, and men Messing around gave birth to her... But, it seems to be the truth."

The bullying among girls is more terrible than I imagined. Is it true that everyone is like this?I thought of the group of live treasures around me, and shook my head.No, they are probably the only exceptions.

However, how did such a poor girl who is harmless to humans and animals get into trouble with Yan Hong?No matter how I think about it, I can't understand it.

"By the way, you are not one of those girls, are you?"

Ling Yu bit her lips tightly, with a hint of guilt on her face: "No, I didn't do anything. I neither harmed her nor helped her."

It doesn't look like she's lying.But if this is the case, a new problem arises again. If they just wanted to prevent Yan Hong from attending the family meeting in a few days from the beginning, how did they persuade Liang Qiao to cooperate with them and deliberately left behind at the scene? Where are her shoe prints?

With such doubts in mind, I continued to ask Ling Yu: "Then, what is the cooperation between you and Liang Qiao?"

"Cooperation? What is that?" Ling Yu showed a dazed look.

I frowned: "If it wasn't for her suicide that day, how are you going to carry out this plan?"

"Huh? It's just that I found an opportunity to dismiss him secretly, and then Zhong Xu took the opportunity to give him medicine. Everyone ran out somehow, and Zhong Xu took this opportunity to sneak back to the class to finish the medicine, and then left."

Chapter 97 Depicting the Maiden of Death (33)

"What about the shoe prints on the window? Didn't you guys do that camouflage?"

"What's that? He shouldn't have done such a thing. Is there any problem?" Ling Yu, who was also aware of something wrong, said at a loss.

"Don't make noise, let me think about it." As I spoke, I fell into deep thought.

If they didn't do it, who would?

I realized that I seemed to have fallen into a misunderstanding, but I couldn't find a way to escape for a while.

Calm down, Luo Tianchen.If you think about it carefully, the answer must be in the clues just now.

Let's sort it out from the beginning.In order to obtain a high return, Zhong Xu and Ling Yu decided to secretly take some laxatives so that Yan Hong could not attend the recent family meeting. They originally planned to find another opportunity, but they happened to catch up with the timing of Liang Qiao's suicide. Xu successfully completed his task while everyone was attracting attention. However, the medicine he gave turned into poison for some reason, killing Yan Hong.The next morning, Zhong Xu was also found dead in his home. The cause of death was sudden myocardial infarction, whether it was guilt or murder, it is still unknown.

This is the full picture of the incident inferred according to Ling Yu's statement, but no matter what, he can't connect online.Is she lying?Or is there something I haven't noticed?

...No, I don't understand at all.The laxatives that were given suddenly turned into poison, which was impossible to think about.If it wasn't that what they got was poison from the beginning, then it could only be that there was a second party acting secretly.But the odds... are possible.

By the way, if besides them, there are people from the other party who are also acting secretly...

"That, that, did you find something?" Ling Yu, who noticed the change in my eyes, asked cautiously.

"Don't bother me now!"

"Oh." She shut up obediently.

The figure on the roof, the small figure Yue saw, the footprints left on the window sill, and what the mysterious man said...the only clues that can connect them are...
