Ye Lin shook his head regretfully. If he could find the license plate of the taxi, he would probably know where Liang Jing went.

"Liang Jing left school at 5:10 p.m. and then committed suicide by jumping off a building at 11 p.m. It seems that the truth was revealed during this time at night."

"Well, everyone is tired today. Let's wait for the forensics department to recover Liang Jing's mobile phone tomorrow and then see if there are any clues." Yu Haifeng said.

Silent all night.

The next morning, Yu Haifeng brought Ye Lin and Sun Jinghua to Yuezhou University to talk to Liang Jing's roommate.

When he saw the three girls, Ye Lin looked at their haggard faces and realized that it was right to leave them alone yesterday.

In fact, Ding Xiaolin and the other two did not sleep well last night. They were wondering whether Liang Jing would come back to see them the whole night, and they fell asleep almost in the morning. Before they woke up, they were called by the security department to come for a talk. How could this be good?

"You must be Liang Jing's roommates, right? We are from the criminal investigation team of the police station. My name is Yu Haifeng, this is Ye Lin, and this is Sun Jinghua. We want to find you to find out some information, is that okay?" Yu Haifeng said in a low voice.

"Yeah, yeah." The three of them nodded like chicks pecking at rice. They now really wanted to find out why Liang Jing died as soon as possible. It would be best if it wasn't because of them, otherwise they would probably have trouble sleeping well in the future.

"Linzi, let's talk separately, quickly?" Yu Haifeng asked hypocritically.

In fact, they had discussed with Ye Lin before coming that they must separate and defeat them one by one. Once the three girls were separated and had no backbone, they would definitely be defeated faster than anyone else in front of experienced criminal police like them.

"Okay, then I'll talk to Xie Hong." Ye Lin pretended to choose one at random.

They had already consulted Teacher Wu to learn about the personalities of the three girls. Xie Hong was the weakest one, so Ye Lin would be the one to make a breakthrough. Yu Haifeng would talk to Ding Xiaolin, and Sun Jinghua would deal with Sun Yanxue.

The three of them each found a small classroom and started.

Ye Lin looked at Xie Hong seriously and asked in a deep voice, "Do you know why we are looking for you?"

Xie Hong was now so nervous that she kept picking her fingers down there. She had a dependent personality to begin with, and without her two backbones around, she suddenly lost her composure.

"I know. Liang Jing jumped off the building." She answered softly.

"Well, let me explain our policy again: leniency to those who confess and severity to those who resist. I hope you can answer honestly."

"Ah."

Ye Lin nodded. Seeing the girl's psychological defenses must have been broken, he needed to be a little gentler. Speak in a serious tone first, and then change to a gentle tone. This will instantly give the other person the illusion that you are the closest person to her. This is also an interrogation technique.

Of course, this is also because it has been basically confirmed that they are not the murderers. After all, Liang Jing most likely committed suicide after returning from a trip.

"Well, tell me about your relationship with Liang Jing. Speak slowly and don't be afraid." Ye Lin asked softly.

Sure enough, Xie Hong, who was very nervous and even a little scared just now, collapsed psychologically after being comforted by Ye Lin, and started talking like pouring beans.

According to her, actually at the beginning of their freshman year, the relationship between the four was quite normal. Later, because Liang Jing was too outstanding and not very good at communicating with others, the girls' jealousy took over, and with Ding Xiaolin's strong guidance, the three began to isolate Liang Jing. By the sophomore year, the few of them basically stopped talking to each other.

They would occasionally play tricks on her, like hiding her things or breaking her computer. Their purpose was actually very simple: they just didn't want to see Liang Jing being so outstanding, especially since she was beautiful.

Ye Lin slowly remembered that this kind of thing was cold violence, which would indeed have an impact on Liang Jing's psychology, but it would probably not affect her to the point of jumping off the building. The key point was still her social interactions.

"Won't she quarrel with you if you treat her like this?" Ye Lin asked.

Xie Hong recalled: "Liang Jing is a very tolerant person and usually doesn't argue with us. But sometimes when we were chatting and she was still studying, Xiaolin would deliberately bring up the topic with her, saying that she seduced men or something like that. At this time, she would get very angry and argue with us, saying that she didn't do that and sometimes she would even cry."

"Seducing a man? What does that mean? Does she have a boyfriend?"

"Comrade police officer, although we have never seen her boyfriend, she must have a man outside. She often brings back some small gifts, saying that they are from participating in charity performances for needy students."

"But, one time she brought back a brand-name bag, Xiaolin mocked her, saying that you poor students are so generous in your charity performances? What she meant was that she didn't go to the charity performance at all, but was looking for someone to support her." After relaxing, Xie Hong's gossip talent began to emerge, and she spoke more vividly.

Designer bags?

Ye Lin thought of the brand-name bag that Sun Jinghua found in Liang Jing's suitcase. It was authenticated and was authentic. The price was about 2 yuan, which was not something Liang Jing could afford.

"Did Liang Jing quarrel with you?" Ye Lin asked calmly, and poured a glass of water for Xie Hong, asking her to continue to relax.

"No, it was very strange. She seemed to have cried that night and her face looked very ugly. When we talked to her, she pretended not to hear us and went straight to bed."

"So did she use this designer bag later?"

"No, we didn't see her use it afterwards, so we guessed she sold it. Xiaolin said she must have been kept by someone outside and sold her body for money."

"Then didn't you talk about who is supporting her?" Ye Lin asked with a fake smile.

Xie Hong pondered for a moment and said with a gossipy look on her face: "We have talked about it. In fact, we are also quite curious. Liang Jing doesn't go out very often. She said she is afraid of spending money. She just often goes to participate in performances. Because someone sponsors her scholarship, we all guess that she is being kept by the sponsor."

Looking at Xie Hong's smug expression, Ye Lin could already imagine how the three of them were laughing at Liang Jing behind her back.

"What did you mean just now about sponsors giving scholarships? What does that mean? Aren't scholarships given by the school?" Ye Lin asked calmly.

"The school's reward is just a few dollars. First prize is only 3000 yuan, which is too little. Liang Jing can't get first prize either. She can only get second prize, 2000 yuan, which is not enough at all." Xie Hong said disdainfully.

"Isn't there a subsidy for poor students?"

Although Ye Lin himself had never received any scholarships in this life, he knew about these things in his previous life.

"Ah, yes, but it's not much." Xie Hong said bluntly, "Liang Jing not only wants to go to school for free, but also wants to earn some money for her family. Do you think she can do it?"
