The shopkeeper was stunned again and this time, his entire head was ringing in shock.
âWho is it? Who is the murderer? â Guo Tingtingâs voice became sharp and she really didnât have any rationality to speak of right now.
Helian Weiwei didnât know how to communicate with this kind of person. She ignored Guo Tingting altogether and only said to the shopkeeper, âCan you still find the original email in your mailbox?â
âYes, I can. Iâve been keeping it, I didnât delete it! â The shopkeeper was about to turn on the computer when he added, âHowever, the other party also didnât use a local email address. He mentioned at the beginning of our conversation that he was overseas, and eventually he stopped replying altogether. Look, these are all the emails I tried to send him. I wanted to send him money too, but Iâm not sure if his email changed because heâs overseas, and I couldnât contact him at all.â
Helian Weiwei kept a faint smile on. âThis person is not abroad at all. That was just a lie he made up.â
âEh?â The shop ownerâs eyes widened again.
Helian Weiwei held her phone to the computer screen and a photo of the screenâs contents appeared on her phone.
âWhat are you doing?â Why was she taking a photo at this time?
Helian Weiwei looked down at her phone and opened a WeChat chat window. âMonkey, help me to check the email address in this photo.â
âI couldnât find anything.â The shop owner waved his hand. âI know a lot of friends online, and they only found out that this email was indeed registered in China. They werenât able to find anything else.â
Helian Weiwei smiled without saying anything.
Only one person was clenching his fists without anyone noticing.
Guo Tingting was also very anxious. âCompared to these unimportant things, couldnât you tell us who it is first? You just said that you already know the murderer. Who exactly is he?â
âZhao Xiaodong.â Helian Weiweiâs voice was very faint, as if it was inadvertently heard.
Guo Tingting was stunned.
Xiao Jingtian also didnât expect to hear this. She first glanced at Chen Feiyang before her gaze fell on Zhao Xiaodong.
Chen Feiyang was also shocked. He thought that this high school student in front of him, who looked more like she was pretending, would identify him as the murderer.
Almost everyone thought so.
Even the accused Zhao Xiaodongâs expression went blank in that instant. Then he pointed at himself with his finger. âMe? Miss Helian, are you sure you didnât get the wrong person?â
âNo, it was you.â Helian Weiwei smiled even more brightly. âYouâre a pretty good actor and youâre also smart enough. Your thinking is meticulous and youâre not panicky when you commit murder. But itâs a pity that youâve stupidly fallen for such a woman. Mr Zhao, your ability to discern women is really quite terrible, but thatâs also why you ended up revealing so many clues and I could string all of them together smoothly. So perhaps I ought to thank Dong Sichun?â
Zhao Xiaodongâs face was red, as if he was angry and extremely unwilling to accept this response. âI donât understand what youâre saying at all. Iâve not said a single word the whole way. How could you conclude that Iâm the murderer?!â
âDidnât you say something at the end?â Helian Weiwei raised her eyes and glanced coldly at him. âYou were the one who mentioned that we can see the rooftop through the window. Werenât you the one who reminded us about this?â
Zhao Xiaodong laughed somewhat in confusion. âSo you think Iâm the murderer based on just this sentence? I just saw that sentence on the wall and thought of this answer. Whatâs so suspicious about that?â
âThatâs not the only reason why I think youâre the murderer.â Helian Weiwei laughed. âI love to use a personâs words and actions to understand his psyche, and Iâll tell you honestly now that actually the person I suspected the most from the start was you. Back then you were the last person to come out from the sliding door closet, then Zhang Heng died shortly after that. To solve a case, most of the time we have to search for clues from the person who was closest to the victim. I thought that after we arrived at the crime scene, I would find some clues left behind by you inside the closet. But unfortunately, itâs been half a year and there are no marks left anymore. Besides, the police had searched this place before, so I started to wonder if my initial judgment had any loopholes. Also, Chen Feiyang seemed to like Dong Sichun so much, so I never ruled him out either, and I couldnât decide which one of you was the murderer. But after I analyzed everything carefully, I found out that Chen Feiyang had pretty good results in school, his looks are above average, and he would be someone who would be offered a job very quickly after graduation. On top of that, Xiao Jingtian likes him, so his future ahead is very bright. Thereâs no reason for him to ruin his perfectly wonderful future ahead for the sake of Dong Sichun. In fact, Iâm confident that if we never mentioned Dong Sichun again, he wouldnât feel any guilt at all.â
Chen Feiyangâs voice was very quiet. âIâve never said that I likeed Sichun. The person I like has always been Jingtian and that hasnât changed since high school.â
âBut you really enjoyed how Dong Sichun kept trying to woo you, didnât you?â Helian Weiwei sneered. âOtherwise, you wouldnât have tried to help her in certain matters either. To put it plainly, you wanted the best of both worlds. Nothing will happen between you and Dong Sichun anymore, but who can guarantee that even though you say you like Miss Xiao now, you would end up choosing someone like Dong Sichun in the future when you are forced to make a choice? This is why people get hurt. Mr. Chen, I have to say that youâre really the biggest douchebag Iâve come across.â
Once Guo Tingting knew that the murderer was not Chen Feiyang, she instantly changed her attitude. âArenât you going to far in saying something like that about Feiyang? Feiyang has always been a warm and friendly person, and everyone knows that.â
Helian Weiwei glanced at Guo Tingting and didnât say anything, because she was afraid that she might end up bashing her up. She really had no way to communicate with such girls. Was her brain made of tofu dregs? How did she get into graduate school?
On this side, Helian Weiwei had narrowed her eyes and was ready to beat someone up.
On the other side, a certain highness who hadnât spoken all this time, curved his thin lips into a strange smile and his eyes were filled with coldness. âCould it be that this Miss Tingting doesnât know what a warm and friendly man really means? Itâs really simple, actually. A warm and friendly man is equivalent to what you women often call a slut. Earlier, you kept saying that these men were very stupid and couldnât see a slutty womanâs true colors. But it seems like youâre not much better. You canât see a slutty manâs true colors either.â
Guo Tingting was completely speechless. Everything she wanted to say was stuck in her throat. The feeling of being unable to refute was awful!
Helian Weiwei, on the other hand, was a bit stunned. Even though it was very unprofessional of her, she really wanted to laugh.
This fellow was really formidable in this aspect. His venomous tongue could really say infuriating things.
When Baili Jiajue turned his head, he realized that someone was secretly laughing to herself...
