Helian Weiwei looked down at her phone and opened a WeChat chat window. "Monkey, help me to check the email address in this photo."
"I couldn't find anything." The shop owner waved his hand. "I know a lot of friends online, and they only found out that this email was indeed registered in China. They weren't able to find anything else."
Helian Weiwei smiled without saying anything.
Only one person was clenching his fists without anyone noticing.
Guo Tingting was also very anxious. "Compared to these unimportant things, couldn't you tell us who it is first? You just said that you already know the murderer. Who exactly is he?"
"Zhao Xiaodong." Helian Weiwei's voice was very faint, as if it was inadvertently heard.Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click /book/the-anarchic-consort_11046205305246905/the-venomous-tongued-baili-jiajue-protects-weiwei_50925503296630339 for visiting.
Xiao Jingtian also didn't 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 Xiaodong's expression went blank in that instant. Then he pointed at himself with his finger. "Me? Miss Helian, are you sure you didn't get the wrong person?"
"No, it was you." Helian Weiwei smiled even more brightly. "You're a pretty good actor and you're also smart enough. Your thinking is meticulous and you're not panicky when you commit murder. But it's a pity that you've stupidly fallen for such a woman. Mr Zhao, your ability to discern women is really quite terrible, but that's 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?"
Zhao Xiaodong's face was red, as if he was angry and extremely unwilling to accept this response. "I don't understand what you're saying at all. I've not said a single word the whole way. How could you conclude that I'm the murderer?!"
"Didn't you say something at the end?" Helian Weiwei raised her eyes and glanced coldly at him. "You were the one who mentioned that we can see the rooftop through the window. Weren't you the one who reminded us about this?"
Zhao Xiaodong laughed somewhat in confusion. "So you think I'm the murderer based on just this sentence? I just saw that sentence on the wall and thought of this answer. What's so suspicious about that?"
"That's not the only reason why I think you're the murderer." Helian Weiwei laughed. "I love to use a person's words and actions to understand his psyche, and I'll 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, it's 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 couldn't 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. There's no reason for him to ruin his perfectly wonderful future ahead for the sake of Dong Sichun. In fact, I'm confident that if we never mentioned Dong Sichun again, he wouldn't feel any guilt at all."
Chen Feiyang's voice was very quiet. "I've never said that I likeed Sichun. The person I like has always been Jingtian and that hasn't changed since high school."
"But you really enjoyed how Dong Sichun kept trying to woo you, didn't you?" Helian Weiwei sneered. "Otherwise, you wouldn't 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 you're really the biggest douchebag I've come across."
Once Guo Tingting knew that the murderer was not Chen Feiyang, she instantly changed her attitude. "Aren't you going to far in saying something like that about Feiyang? Feiyang has always been a warm and friendly person, and everyone knows that."
Helian Weiwei glanced at Guo Tingting and didn't 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 hadn't spoken all this time, curved his thin lips into a strange smile and his eyes were filled with coldness. "Could it be that this Miss Tingting doesn't know what a warm and friendly man really means? It's really simple, actually. A warm and friendly man is equivalent to what you women often call a s.l.u.t. Earlier, you kept saying that these men were very stupid and couldn't see a s.l.u.tty woman's true colors. But it seems like you're not much better. You can't see a s.l.u.tty man's true colors either."
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...
Chapter 1083 - The Order Is Still in Effect
The corners of Baili Jiajue's mouth curled up indulgently.
Was she that happy?
Of course Helian Weiwei was happy. After all, a certain highness had always only said such poisonous words to her and hardly to anyone else. So now that she got a rare chance to see him behave like this to someone else, she was in an excellent mood.
Baili Jiajue looked at the way her thin lips slightly curled up and wanted to reach out and pull her into his embrace just like how he always did in the past.
But just as he raised his fingers, he suddenly remembered something.
A cold glint suddenly flashed through his deep eyes.
That order was still in effect.
Helian Weiwei blinked and thought that the murderous aura emitted from the man's body was directed at Guo Tingting, so she quickly turned her body sideways to stand in front of him.
It was fine to say mean things to others but killing others was definitely out of the question. Besides, even though this girl wasn't good at judging men and she wasn't very smart, it was only normal for a girl her age to behave this way.
"Let's not stray from the topic." Helian Weiwei's voice calmed down again. She glanced at Guo Tingting, whose face was flushed red. "We're now concerned about the murderer. I don't care about Mr. Chen's character. I'm just giving you my analysis."
Zhao Xiaodong took advantage of this loophole and pushed his glasses up with a sneer. "So you're accusing me of being the murderer based on your nonsensical analysis? Young lady, you've been pretending to be very high and mighty right from the start, analyzing this and that. I admit that you are indeed smarter than us and you get through the escape room puzzles faster than us, but you can't just accuse someone of being a murderer with just a few words. I can sue you for slander!"
"Mr. Zhao, I would advise you against talking to me about the law." Helian Weiwei had fought countless cases in America before this, after all. She took a step forward. "Also, I have not been pretending or playing tricks. By saying something like this, I could sue you for slander too. You want something more concrete? Sure, I'll present something more concrete to you."
"When the police were questioning all of you, the information they let on through the questions helped you to realize that Dong Sichun's death wasn't simple. You're very smart, but you weren't able to overturn the case, because the school had already banned the students from talking about this matter. But you liked Dong Sichun, and you liked her to the point where you would do anything for her."
"Initially, you didn't intend to kill them, and you just stalked all of them. But as time went by, you discovered many things that you didn't know before, like how Guo Tingting had seen what happened on the rooftop and didn't tell the police anything, or how Dong Sichun had been intimate with Zhang Heng before. At that time, you thought that Zhang Heng had forced himself on your pure and innocent goddess, which made Dong Sichun kill herself because she couldn't take it."
"You think that every single one of them is a murderer for forcing Dong Sichun to take her own life. And even though you found many loopholes and contradictions in your investigation, you refused to believe that pure and innocent girl wasn't anything like you imagined. Before coming here, I got someone to investigate your relationship with Dong Sichun. It's very strange – you're not working yet, but you were willing to spend so much money on Dong Sichun. She wanted an iPhone, so you helped someone to write a thesis in order to get enough money to buy one, and you were so happy after you gave it to her. Oh I'm sorry, I didn't mean to pry into your privacy, but you like to post on social media, and I took a quick glance while we were in the escape room."Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click /book/the-anarchic-consort_11046205305246905/the-order-is-still-in-effect_50925504622034097 for visiting.
Helian Weiwei unlocked her phone and opened a few photos. "These were sent to me by my informant, and one of them is a screengrab from your social media account. Some days before Dong Sichun died, you put a post saying that you gave her a 5S, and even though she didn't accept your feelings, she didn't reject your kind intentions either, so you felt that there was still hope for you and even encouraged yourself to work hard."
"And then here's a comment from Zhang Heng below this post. He clearly wrote here: Are you stupid? Why do you have to give your hard earned money to a s.l.u.t? Whenever she wants something, you immediately offer it to her with both hands. You're seriously just a useless piece of trash who's short and ugly, so save your effort, because that woman is never going to like you. You're seriously retarded."
After Helian Weiwei finished reading the contents of that last comment, she looked up to see Zhao Xiaodong's twisted and furious expression. "These are very awful words. You made Zhang Heng your first victim not only because you think that he violated Dong Sichun, but the other big reason was that he often said nasty and sarcastic things to you. You really hated this behavior, and you also clearly couldn't stand how he described your goddess this way. Because of this, you went back and forth on the comments with him, calling him a Casanova who only viewed women as s.e.x.u.a.l objects."
"But Mr. Zhao, Zhang Heng wasn't wrong. You were really very foolish, and more than happy to be as well. Buying things for your goddess is your business, but you also insisted that everyone behave like you and only say good things about your goddess. It doesn't take a genius to know that if a woman is really of good character, she wouldn't have accepted this phone from you. If she accepted it, then she should have accepted you as well. But Dong Sichun clearly only wanted the phone, and kicked you aside after taking the phone. You actually thought that this sort of woman was a good woman? It's little wonder Zhang Heng despised you so much."
"That's between me and Zhang Heng!" Zhao Xiaodong started yelling and the veins on his forehead bulged. "What do you know about Sichun?! You're just using your vile way of thinking to second guess her! Young lady, since you've got such a foul mind, I suppose anybody could be the killer to you, right? You think that I'm going to commit murder just because of one post on the internet? You think anyone would believe you if you said so?"
"In order to help you see what sort of woman your precious goddess really is, I'll give you a chance to understand the situation." Helian Weiwei turned and saw that Guo Tingting was laughing. "You probably know better, right? After Dong Sichun received the phone from Zhao Xiaodong that day, what did say?"
Guo Tingting already hated Dong Sichun, so now that she had the chance, she was going to say everything that she had wanted to say for a long time. "Of course I know. It wasn't just that phone. There was once, Dong Sichun wanted a Gucci purse but didn't have enough money to buy it herself, so she would purposely pretend to casually talk about it to Zhao Xiaodong. Dong Sichun just pretends to be pure and innocent in front of the boys, but she reveals her true colors in front of myself and Jingtian. And we know all about what she really feels about Zhao Xiaodong."
"She was initially annoyed by how Zhao Xiaodong liked her, and if Zhao Xiaodong and Feiyang weren't roommates, she wouldn't even have bothered to talk to him. But later she realized that Zhao Xiaodong was that teeny bit useful after all, so she didn't display her disgust for him. After all, if she was too nasty to him, it would affect the image that the boys had of her."
Chapter 1084 - Tsk, Who Says I Have No Evidence
When Guo Tingting reached this part, she snorted disdainfully. "After she received the phone from Zhao Xiaodong, she even came back to the hostel room and said to Jingtian and I, "Don't you think this Zhao Xiaodong is really stupid? I'm so annoyed by him but he's like a little puppy who can't stop buying things for me. But he's bought me good stuff, so when we eat together later, let him come along. He's given me a present after all.""
"Did you hear that? " Helian Weiwei tilted her head and met Zhao Xiaodong's gaze once again as a devilish smile spread across her face. She wasn't kind to begin with, and she was faced with this sort of case, so the methods she were going to be quite different from before.Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click /book/the-anarchic-consort_11046205305246905/tsk-who-says-i-have-no-evidence_50990694709385661 for visiting.
Zhao Xiaodong's entire face was dyed a deep red by the anger that welled up inside him. "Sichun wouldn't talk like this! The only person who would talk like this is you, Guo Tingting!"
"Zhao Xiaodong, listen up. It's true that I'm not a good person or anything, but at least I'm an authentic person. Your goddess Sichun, is the real s.l.u.t here, ok?!" Guo Tingting folded her arms in disdain. "Jingtian was around as well, and she angrily told Dong Sichun not to play with others' feelings like this. But your goddess wasn't going to listen to that and just felt that you were nothing but a toad, and accepting your gift was like a gift from the gods to you. Didn't you feel that way when you put up that post?"
"I can tell you now that Zhang Heng and I are the same sort of person! He didn't have any regard for you, but at least we are humane. He said such things to you so that you would snap out of your blind infatuation, but in the end? You actually killed him!"
Guo Tingting practically shouted that last sentence and her face was covered with tears.
Zhao Xiaodong calmed down by this time, and he said with a fake smile, "Don't talk about how noble you are. All of you only know how to look down on people from small towns. Also, there's no evidence to prove that I'm a murderer. I've never killed anyone. Guo Tingting, you're crying and shouting like this and you insist on saying that I'm a murderer. Then we can only see each other in court."
As he spoke, he looked at Helian Weiwei. "
This farce should end here. A few graduate students were fooled by a high school student, and made to suspect each other over nothing. That's really enough. I thought you were some incredible fengshui master, but you're just like those swindlers who have done a private investigation on us to pretend to be a real fortune teller. The Taobao shops these days are really getting worse and worse."
After saying this, Zhao Xiaodong wanted to leave.
Helian Weiwei spoke again, and her voice was clear and powerful: "Who says there is no evidence to prove that you are the murderer? The walkie-talkie in your hand right now is the best evidence!"
Zhao Xiaodong shook, and his eyes became so intense that his pupils seemed to be clouding over.
He subconsciously clenched his left hand and turned his head around mockingly. "The shopkeeper gave me the walkie-talkie. You say this is evidence? I've really never heard of anything more ridiculous than this."
"To be more precise, it's a murder weapon." Helian Weiwei walked towards him, and her long hair fluttered in the wind with an indescribably imposing manner. "I keep warning you not to make a move, but you didn't even listen. You thought that I'm getting in your way, so you actually tried to kill my assistant. Mr. Zhao, I'm not going to let you off based on this alone!"
This was the first time the students and the shopkeeper saw Helian Weiwei display such a cold and unfeeling expression on her face. In that instant, it was as if her entire body was giving off a bloodthirsty smell.
From the moment they first saw her, this high school student had always kept a refreshing smile on her face.
They never would have thought that the murderous aura that covered her entire body would be so terrifying.
The anger of the ancient Phoenix wasn't something that anyone could endure.
Zhao Xiaodong started to tremble uncontrollably, but he did not give up on defending himself. "Everything you're saying now is filled with strong personal emotions. You're biting me with such righteous indignation that you even made up the fact that this walkie-talkie can kill people. Never mind about going to court - even the police would not believe your words!"
