From doomsday survival to fast-forward daily life

As for the cause of Zhong Ling's death, Tian Yu's initial guess came from her private messages on social media.

It can be clearly seen from the video that she has been stalked for a long time, and it can be seen from her blacklist that she has tried to block the stalker many times, but the stalker always has new accounts to harass her.

At the same time, Zhong Ling’s mobile phone password is the same as the day when Wang Ran decided to draw a line between him and Zhong Ling, which is enough to show that what happened that day might not be as simple as a breakup between the two.

Tian Yu sent a message to Wang Ran based on her own guess, and the content of the message finally broke through her psychological defenses. Tian Yu also knew all the stories since that day.

Wang Ran has long harbored resentment about the interaction between John and Zhong Ling, but deep down she was unwilling to admit that this anger was actually directed more at Zhong Ling.

That night, Wang Ran found John and confessed her feelings to him, but was rejected as expected. John told Zhong Ling about it, and Zhong Ling found Wang Ran that night.

What she didn't expect was that Zhong Ling came to her house not to accuse her, but to confess her love.

Wang Ran was confused, but an inexplicable joy rose from the bottom of his heart.

This is how the story begins, and what happens next becomes a natural progression. However, for John, everything is beyond his expectations.

The fact that his pursuer and the person he admired were together was a blow to him, especially since his admiration for Zhong Ling had gone beyond normal limits.

After seeing Zhong Ling's cell phone, Tian Yu guessed that Wang Ran might not be the real murderer of Zhong Ling, but she was certainly involved in Zhong Ling's death.

As Wang Ran told the story, John's secret was revealed.

His death and Zhong Ling's death were one after the other, but his death was slightly different from what was circulated on the Internet.

He knew Zhong Ling early on through social software and fell into a fanatical fantasy love.

This seemingly handsome and polite man actually has an unknown side in private. After knowing that Wang Ran and Zhong Ling are familiar with each other, he starts to track and monitor Zhong Ling while playing his own character.

On the surface, Zhong Ling has always maintained an ambiguous relationship with him, but in fact, the real interaction between the two is minimal. Zhong Ling's purpose of approaching John is for Wang Ran. Her woman's intuition makes her aware of Wang Ran's thoughts, and the apparent ambiguity with John is to make Wang Ran give up.

This behavior is a bit childish, but effective.

Zhong Ling and Wang Ran’s first date was at an amusement park. They agreed to meet there early in the morning, and Zhong Ling was immersed in joy during that time.

Wang Ran was originally planning to pick up Zhong Ling, but she said that she would give Wang Ran a surprise, so the two could not meet in advance.

Until the morning of the date, when she ran into John downstairs.

Faced with the other party's passionate expression, Zhong Ling refused without hesitation, and then the tragedy happened.

Wang Ran, who knew nothing about it, waited alone in the amusement park until noon, when the classmate who found Zhong Ling's body contacted her.

This was the first love in Wang Ran's life, and it ended in an extremely tragic way. By the time the foreign police found the murderer John, he had committed suicide for many days. His suicide note described his morbid love and the process of killing Zhong Ling.

Zhong Ling's parents went abroad after learning of Zhong Ling's death, but Wang Ran was unable to face it. Especially when the two of them came to her house and questioned her why she did not go out with Zhong Ling that day even though she had made an appointment with her, she didn't know how to explain.

She didn't dare to tell the story about her and Zhong Ling, so she chose to escape. When she heard the news of her father's death, she didn't dare to go home because she was afraid of seeing Zhong Ling's parents.

Tian Yu fell into silence as he listened to Wang Ran's crying on the other end of the phone.

Wang Ran might be a vain and unqualified daughter when it comes to treating her father, and Zhong Ling might have indirectly caused the death of Chu Yi's parents because of her video, but no matter from which perspective, human nature is always complicated, and they cannot be called real villains.

It is difficult to distinguish right from wrong in this world, and Tian Yu is unable to make any comment.

Wang Ran told Tian Yu that the real cause of Wang Wei's death was freezing to death, and the police detected signs of poisoning in his blood.

This completely pointed out the way for Tian Yu.

Sister Zhong's family rented out a cold storage. During their conversation, Tian Yu learned that they might have a connection with Wang Wei's death, and might even know something, so the cold storage was rented out to Jiang Jian.

So the people who are most suspicious now are the Zhong family and Jiang Jian. At the same time, the toxins in Wang Wei's blood make Tian Yu think of Liang Jie.

Tian Yu obtained the identity information of everyone in the neighborhood committee and found that only Liu Xin was from Luo Province. This was a bit strange, because if Wang Wei’s death was related to Lin Luo’s death fourteen years ago, then the person most likely to have a direct connection with Lin Luo was Liu Xin. The two were from the same place and were of similar age.

Then, Sister Zhong's words opened up new ideas for Tian Yu. Liang Jie used to work in a bar fourteen years ago, and Lin Luo was a resident singer there. Was it a coincidence that Liu Xin was from Luoyang Province?

After Tian Yu saw her hand and touched it, he felt that it was not the right one.

Although she never showed any flaws on the Xichuan Road, her hands betrayed her.

She takes such good care of her hands, and her fingers are long and slender, even her knuckles are thicker. Even though she hasn't touched the piano keys for a long time, her fingertips are still rounder than others, and her nails are trimmed very short. Even if her face changes, it is difficult for her to change her habits.

"Your permed hair looks ugly." Tian Yu said to Xu Lu, pointing at his new hairstyle.

"There's no other way. I'm learning it on the spot." Xu Lu smiled helplessly.

A man, who has studied piano for many years, finally opened a barber shop. His business is not very good, but his skills are extremely poor. Is this right?

The most important point is that Jiang Jian has not been in Xichuan Road for long, and his relationship with Xu Lu is very ambiguous. Even Xu Lu buys him breakfast every day.

Tian Yu has always been puzzled as to why Chu Yi had not been poisoned after eating Liang Jie's breakfast for so long. After several mixed tests, she got the answer: Liang Jie never poisoned everyone, but only those who bought specific combinations.

Who could this person be? It became clear after seeing the alcohol in Jiang Jian's home. Aconitine can treat diseases, but excessive intake or long-term accumulation of toxins can lead to poisoning.

Jiang Jian's breakfast was always bought by Xu Lu. If he died of aconitine poisoning, Liang Jie would not be suspected at all, after all, his wine also contained aconitine.

What about Wang Wei's poison? Tian Yu recalled the day when he and Jiang Jian walked into the mahjong hall together, with a strong smell of alcohol on his body. When thinking about how he chased Liang Jie and made advances on her, it turned out that there was no connection between the two of them, but that alcohol made the coward daring. That alcohol was Jiang Jian's medicinal wine.

How did Wang Wei freeze to death?

The answer lies in Sister Zhong who came home drunk that day.
