So, who could this murderer be? Since there is a secret passage in Fu Weiwei's room, it is very likely that this person came in from outside the college.

While Luo Qingran was thinking, Mei Zi spoke again, "Qingran, not only did the Fu family come today, but the Shangguan family also came, and they took Shangguan Xuan away."

Luo Qingran just nodded at the news and didn't show much surprise.

Mei Zi looked at it and asked, "Why aren't you surprised at all? Do you know why Shangguan Xuan was taken away?"

“I can guess a few points.”

"Ah, then tell me what you have to say!" Mei Zi pulled Luo Qingran to the front of the table, looking as if she was listening attentively.

Luo Qingran looked at the sky outside and said, "Aren't you going to class? Time seems to be running out. If you don't leave now, you'll be late."

"Ahhh~~~ I would have forgotten if you hadn't told me. Qingran, wait for me to come back and tell me!"

Before Mei Zi finished her voice, there was no one left in the yard.

Luo Qingran shook her head, packed up, and prepared to go to her first class in this life. At this moment, she was still feeling quite curious and wondered if it would be the same as when she was on Blue Star.

She still remembered how when she was in Blue Star, she carried the little blue schoolbag that her master bought for her and went to school happily with the children from the neighborhood every day.

At that time, Master arranged her schedule very tightly, requiring her to finish her homework at school as much as possible every day, and to practice cultivation when she returned home.

She also got up very early every day to practice swordsmanship. During the winter and summer vacations, her master would take her around the world to look for rare medicinal herbs.

Although she feels tired sometimes, she feels fulfilled.

Now she is about to start campus life again, and she still misses this feeling. It's just a pity that she doesn't have the supervision and urging of her master around.

Suddenly, she remembered something, and quickly activated the invisible bracelet and used the Lightning Element Phantom Step to rush out of the academy.

Because she was fast enough, she finally caught up with the Fu family members at the teleportation array at the west gate of the imperial capital. According to convention, the leader of these people should be Fu Weiwei's father, Fu Tianlei, the current head of the Fu family.

After all, Fu Weiwei and that man are at least 50% similar, and the woman next to the man looks sad at this moment. It is obvious that this person should be Fu Weiwei's mother.

The other people also had unhappy expressions. After all, they wanted to seek justice, but the head of the family just left without saying anything. This was completely different from what they discussed at home.

The eldest daughter of the Fu family died in unclear circumstances. The head of the family, her biological father, not only did not ask for an explanation or compensation from the academy, he didn't even know who the murderer was. How could he just leave so easily?

But the head of the family always keeps his word, and as a branch of the family, they have seen clearly over the years that if you don't obey, the whole family will definitely have a hard time. Therefore, they kept their anger in their hearts and left the academy together.

When the few of them took the teleportation array back to Fu's house, no one noticed that there was a little tail following them.

"Master, now that we are back home, can you explain to us what we have been doing here?"

One of the people who followed the patriarch couldn't help it anymore, and finally spoke up after seeing the patriarch sitting in the main hall of the Fu family. Of course, this question was also the common doubt of all the other people who followed him.

Fu Tianlei looked at the people who had followed him on this trip for nothing, shook his head, and said helplessly: "The poison that Weiwei was poisoned with was Sleeping Beauty."

"What?"

Everyone sitting in the main hall was stunned. How could it be possible? Sleeping Beauty was a highly toxic poison unique to their family. The reason why it was named Sleeping Beauty was mainly because all those who took this poison would be unconscious when the poison took effect, just like sleeping soundly, and they would lose their lives silently.

But the most significant feature is that the poisoned person's appearance remains unchanged. He really looks like he is sleeping soundly, without any expression of pain.

For a moment, the main hall fell into silence.

If Fu Weiwei was provoked into committing suicide by taking poison, that was absolutely impossible. Given the character of their eldest daughter, it would be good enough if she didn't poison others when she was bullied.

Could it be done by one of our own family?

No one is a fool. This kind of family-specific poison cannot easily be in the hands of outsiders. Otherwise, if something goes wrong, the family will definitely be blamed.

But who could have gotten the poison and poisoned his own daughter to death?

The people sitting in the hall looked at each other and shook their heads to indicate that they didn't know.

Fu Tianlei sighed, "Everyone, go down and arrange Weiwei's funeral."

Others couldn't believe that the patriarch would let him off so easily. "Patriarch, are we not going to look for the murderer?"

Fu Tianlei looked at the speaker with a serious look.

Upon seeing this, the others quickly bowed to the head of the family and left, taking the talkative person away with them.

At this time, Luo Qingran was sitting in a chair in the main hall closest to the door in an invisible state, thinking: "Fu Tianlei's reaction obviously shows that he has figured out who the murderer is."

At this moment, Fu Tianlei snapped his fingers, and a man in black appeared beside Fu Tianlei, bent down, and whispered, "Master."

"Let her come to me."

"Yes."

Soon, Fu Tianlei was the only one left in the main hall. Luo Qingran was wondering who the "he" Fu Tianlei had just mentioned could be. Fu Tianlei sighed again, and even his figure became a little sluggish.

It seems that Fu Tianlei is still very fond of Weiwei.

After that, Fu Tianlei left the main hall and walked towards the main house in the backyard. Before he got close, he heard his wife crying. The crying was not loud, which made her look even more sad.

When Fu Tianlei approached, he saw that Fu Weiwei had been changed into her favorite pink silk dress, with a little makeup on her face, and she looked no different from being asleep.

She wore her favorite headpiece on her head, a gold necklace inlaid with rubies on her chest, and a jade bracelet with a lot of water on her wrist.

After Fu Tianlei glanced from top to bottom, his gaze returned to Fu Weiwei's face. He stretched out a rough big hand and tremblingly wanted to touch his daughter's cheek again, but he thought of something again. His hand paused in the air for a while and then he retracted it.

"Tianlei, do you already know who the murderer is?" His wife did not look up at him when she spoke, but continued to put on makeup for Fu Weiwei with powder.

The main reason was that when the murderer gave Fu Weiwei the poison, he pinched her cheek with his hands, leaving a purple mark. As Fu Weiwei's mother, she wanted her daughter to die beautifully.

Fu Tianlei’s wife is named Zhang Yingna. She comes from a small family. At the beginning, because the two of them loved each other, they ignored the opposition of their families and went through a lot of trouble to be together.

After the marriage, although her family also benefited a lot, it was still not comparable to the Fu family. Therefore, she obeyed her husband in everything and managed Fu Tianlei's backyard properly.

They had three children, the first two were boys, and Fu Weiwei was the youngest, a girl. The couple doted on their daughter very much. Even Fu Weiwei's two brothers followed her lead in everything. As a result, Fu Weiwei developed a domineering and arrogant personality.

Fu Tianlei didn't say anything for a long time, so Zhang Yingna naturally knew that the murderer was someone her husband knew.

She put down the powder box in her hand and placed her hand on Fu Tianlei's clenched fist. "Husband, Weiwei is usually spoiled, but she will definitely not do anything to harm others' lives. Can you tell me who the murderer is?"

Zhang Yingna's tears never stopped, dripping down her cheeks and hitting Fu Tianlei's heart directly.

Fu Tianlei suppressed his grief and anger, took the handkerchief from Zhang Yingna's hand and wiped her tears, "Don't worry, Madam. I already know the identity of that person, but there are many things involved. I can't tell you about this matter, but I will definitely avenge Weiwei."

When Zhang Yingna heard her husband say this, it was as if a dam in her heart broke, and she rushed into Fu Tianlei's arms and burst into tears.

Luo Qingran couldn't bear to watch it any longer, so she left the room and looked around, wondering if she could find something if she could enter Fu Tianlei's study. Anyway, she was already here, so she couldn't make a wasted trip.

As a result, when Luo Qingran found Fu Tianlei's study, she found that the door was closed. If no one was coming in or out at this time, she would definitely not open the door and walk in directly. If someone saw this, wouldn't it be a haunted place in broad daylight?

However, Fu Tianlei definitely won't have time to come to the study for the time being, after all, he has to take care of Fu Weiwei's funeral arrangements.

Luo Qingran wandered around the various courtyards of the Fu family, going deeper and deeper, and she didn't know whose courtyard she was in. But this courtyard was really exquisite, more magnificent than the other courtyards of the Fu family.

There were pavilions, towers, bridges, flowing water, green trees, singing birds and fragrant flowers. However, there was no one in such a beautiful courtyard except a few servants working.
