After I died, I became the white moonlight of the crazy villain.
Chapter 169 She was pushed down.
Seeing Bian Jiahui panic, I chuckled. Now she knows fear, but when she was throwing mud at me, she had no scruples at all.
“If I am a suspect, then Miss Bian is also a suspect.”
After hearing what I said, the two officers exchanged a glance, then separated us and took each of us to a quiet classroom, where they carefully questioned me about my activities and itinerary for the day.
I didn't hide anything and told them everything I knew.
After asking her questions, I took Qin Yao home. She was very frightened today and would definitely be scared to be left alone in the dormitory.
Even after I brought her back to the neighborhood, Qin Yao still looked anxious and uneasy. She even woke up suddenly in the middle of the night and ran to my room to knock on the door.
I had no choice but to get up and open the door for her. We lay on the same bed, and I could sense that she hesitated several times, as if she wanted to say something but ultimately didn't.
This made me a little suspicious, and when she called my name again, I couldn't help but ask, "I feel like you have something you want to tell me, but you seem to have some reservations. If you don't want to tell me, I won't force you, but if you do want to tell me, I will keep your secret."
Qin Yao bit her lip, her eyes filled with struggle, as if she was hesitating whether or not to speak. After hesitating for a long time, she shook her head.
I sighed and was about to turn off the light and go to sleep when Qin Yao suddenly grabbed my arm. Her voice trembled and her tone was broken at the end, "Wanwan, when I calmed down later, I thought about it carefully, and I still feel that Liu Mei's death is too strange."
"I was too terrified at the time to think clearly. I only remember that she fell backward from the roof. I vaguely remember that I saw a hand at the time, but I'm not sure if I was seeing things."
Qin Yao's words instantly perked me up. I sat up on the bed and turned to look at her in surprise. "Did you witness this alone, or were there many other witnesses?"
Qin Yao shook her head and told me that she didn't know if anyone else had seen it, because the hand flashed so fast that she initially thought it was her own hallucination.
"Because of this incident, I haven't been able to sleep or eat well. On one hand, I think it's a hallucination, but on the other hand, I'm afraid that Liu Mei was really pushed down by someone else."
My fingers twitched slightly as I pondered. I had initially suspected that Liu Mei's death was murder, not suicide at all.
Because this is too strange. How could someone who was swaggering around at me in the morning suddenly jump off a building in the afternoon?
Moreover, everyone said that Liu Mei fell from the building with her head tilted back. If a normal person chooses to jump from a building, they should be face down. Of course, it cannot be ruled out that some people jump from a building by tilting their heads back.
I had only had some doubts before, but after hearing Qin Yao's words, it seems to confirm my thoughts. If this is indeed a murder, then Qin Yao's discovery of the hand must not be revealed.
Thinking of this, I grabbed her hand and anxiously reminded her, "Remember what you just said? After you tell me, no one else can know. If Liu Mei really was murdered and you happened to see that hand, you'll be in danger. No one can guarantee that the murderer won't target you."
Upon hearing my words, Qin Yao turned pale, tears welled up in her eyes, and she trembled as she grasped my hand, asking, "What should I do?"
"Don't worry, when Liu Mei fell from the building, you weren't the only one who saw it. There were other people who saw it too. If this really was a murder, the mastermind behind it would never have killed all the witnesses. Otherwise, it would have aroused suspicion."
"If you just pretend you don't know anything, you can get away with this. Just forget everything you just said."
Qin Yao's words were a clue to me, but I didn't want to drag her into this danger; she was just an ordinary person.
If Qin Yao were to step into the power struggles of officialdom and her family, she could easily be doomed. Even I, Ge Zeyu, am not entirely confident that I can defeat Fu Xinyi and the others.
If they were to disguise Liu Mei's death as a murder behind the scenes, they wouldn't easily give themselves away, as long as Qin Yao didn't tell anyone what she had just said.
Qin Yao pursed her lips, clearly still very scared. "Besides you, my family also knows about this. When this happened, I was so scared that I sent them a message right away."
Hearing this, my heart skipped a beat. I quickly told her to take out her phone and send a message to her parents. As long as this matter was not known to outsiders, Qin Yao's parents would definitely keep it a secret for their daughter's safety.
After I offered a few words of comfort, Qin Yao gradually calmed down. Feeling the breathing beside me, I kept my eyes open but couldn't fall asleep.
The next morning, I received a call from Ge Zeyu. He told me that Liu Mei's body had been cremated overnight, and not only did no one else see her, but even Liu Lin didn't get to see her.
Strangely enough, Liu Lin did not make a fuss about it, but accepted the outcome.
I was somewhat surprised by Ge Zeyu's news. Liu Lin only had this one daughter, so logically he should be very sad. Moreover, the fact that his daughter was cremated overnight was suspicious, yet he didn't investigate.
And the most crucial point I can't understand is that Ge Zeyu told me that the school will hold a memorial service for Liu Mei today, and students who wish to attend can go to the auditorium. At that time, spiritual mentors will also be arranged for students to give lectures to the students of the school.
After hearing this arrangement, I understood the school's plan. If a student suddenly jumps off a building and commits suicide, it will definitely cause a great stir. The best explanation is that the student could not bear the mental pressure and chose to end his life.
Arranging for a few counselors to help students relieve stress can reassure other parents and demonstrate the school's seriousness about the matter. This is a common crisis management tactic.
I made an appointment with Ge Zeyu and we decided to go to the Great Hall of the People.
Qin Yao was initially reluctant to go back to school, but when she heard that I was going, she clung to my side and wanted to come with me.
When we arrived at the auditorium, it was already packed with people. For a brief moment, I could feel the surrounding noise quiet down for a second or two.
