Adjutant Cai couldn't help it, opened a short paragraph, and asked again, "Then when will you date again?" Would you like to take her to a movie tomorrow after dinner? ”

He is making suggestions, at this time, strike while the iron is hot, enhance the relationship early, and maybe he can drink the wedding wine in advance.

Zhou Erya smiled: "There are no plans for next time for the time being." ”

As for tomorrow's banquet, she has already said that she will not attend.

If there is no special accident, he should not see this interesting girl again until he decides to withdraw from the marriage.

Adjutant Cai felt inexplicable, and carefully glanced at Zhou Erya's expression from the rearview mirror, and an ominous feeling rose in his heart.

He knew that Zhou Erya had always opposed marriage, and the only hope was on Miss Murong, hoping that after he saw Miss Mu herself, he would change his mind and like this fiancée.

But it doesn't seem to have changed the results.

Early the next morning, the Overseers sent someone to pick up Zhou Erya and return to the Overseer's Palace.

And Zhou Erya has not come out of the bedroom all this time.

Adjutant Cai was afraid that he would anger the Overseer, so he stood at the door and shouted, "Young Master, no matter how willful you are on weekdays, you must give the master face today." ”

This time it was the Mu family who was invited, and there were several big people with heads and faces to witness, if there was a joke, what would be the face of Zhou Overseer?

Zhou Erya stood on the side of the bed, looking at the blackened painting hanging at the head of the bed, a pair of dark eyes were as silent as the deep sea, quiet and terrifying.

To him, the Overseer's Mansion was like a purgatory with countless demons, full of burning evil and disgusting.

But he still has to go back......

I want to go back and see what the hell that robbed me of my happiness is now filthy.

Thinking of this, Zhou Erya's eyes finally poured out a trace of sadness, he looked at the shadow of his mother in the painting, his slender white fingers curled up tightly, and the palm of his hand was painful for a while, before he took a deep breath and walked out of the door.

Seeing that he finally came out, Adjutant Cai breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly led him downstairs.

As soon as he arrived downstairs, Zhou Erya saw Han Yu standing by the telephone, holding the phone, looking at him with a strange expression.

He knew that Han Yu was very worried about the relationship between him and Old Man Zhou, and looking at the two dark circles on Han Yu's face, he knew that he didn't sleep well last night, probably because he was cranky and insomnia all night.

"What's wrong?" Zhou Erya walked up to him and asked.

"Miss Murong's phone number." Han Yu handed him the microphone and said, "She's looking for you." ”

Yesterday's conversation between Zhou Erya and Murong, he overheard part of it, and knew that Murong would say that he was sick today and didn't go to the banquet, but it was strange to call suddenly.

Han Yu was already worried about Zhou Erya and Murong's marriage, but now he was even more uneasy, and he always felt that something bad would happen.

Zhou Erya was very calm, took the microphone and put it to her ear: "I'm Zhou Erya." ”

Han Yu walked away a little more sensitively, and saw Adjutant Cai's face full of joy, and leaned over to him and whispered to him: "The young master also said yesterday that he would not date Miss Murong, you see, now Miss Mu is calling, maybe she is going to the Overseer's Mansion together." ”

Han Yu didn't think so, but he couldn't say anything, so he could only nod: "Miss Murong said that she would come to visit later." ”

"Oh, how hard it is for her to run around a girl's house, the young master should have taken the initiative to pick her up." When Adjutant Cai heard that Miss Murong was coming in a while, he was even more overjoyed, and he couldn't close his mouth with a smile, "I'll drive the young master to pick her up." ”

Han Yu rarely saw Adjutant Cai, who had a serious and deep face, so happy, obviously he really regarded Zhou Erya as a relative and was happy for his marriage.

But thinking about Zhou Erya, such an excellent person, has not talked about a girlfriend for 28 years, and the people close to him will naturally worry about him, and now he can finally talk about marriage, and his fiancée is both talented and beautiful, of course, I can't wait for him to start a family immediately.

Han Yu really didn't want to spoil Adjutant Cai's mood, so he smiled reluctantly: "Let's wait for the phone call first." ”

He felt that something had happened to Murong over there.

Yesterday, when Miss Mu was separated, she was not in a hurry to meet, and made it clear that such an important banquet today would also be called ill, and she suddenly wanted to visit, it must be because of some unexpected event that changed her mind.

Could it be that the elders are putting pressure on them?

Zhou Erya answered the phone, hung up, walked to the table, quietly picked up today's newspaper, and read it up and down, thoughtfully.

Adjutant Cai asked impatiently, "Is Miss Mu coming over?" Let's go pick her up. ”

"No, she should be going out." Zhou Erya looked at the newspaper and circled several news items with a pen.

Seeing that the young master was not in a hurry, Adjutant Cai was very anxious - this is too bad at falling in love, so he should take the initiative to be courteous to girls, and he should enthusiastically say to pick her up on the phone just now.

But Adjutant Cai is not Zhou Erya's father after all, and even his father can't teach him how to chase girls, so he sighed silently and stepped aside.

Han Yu saw Zhou Erya staring at the newspaper over and over again, and couldn't help asking, "Did something happen?" ”

Zhou Erya shook her head, then nodded again, and raised her eyes to look at Han Yu.

"Your question is not rigorous, in fact, things are happening all the time in the world, it's just that some things are interesting and some are very boring."

"So, this time it's fun again?" Han Yu read some answers from his expression.

Miss Murong shouldn't have looked for him at such a time, Han Yu only prayed that it was not a major matter related to Zhou Erya, the marriage was already a headache, and he didn't want to see his friend fall into new troubles.

Zhou Erya flipped through the newspaper with an indifferent expression: "I can't be sure yet, I just want to use clues to deduce what others didn't tell me." ”

In the past, Han Yu might have been confused, and felt that Zhou Erya was chattering again.

But now with his understanding of Zhou Erya, plus he is reading some social news in the newspaper, he feels that there must be another case.

I don't know why, Han Yu thinks that as long as it is not related to Zhou Erya's family, and it does not involve the old man Zhou Overseer, then it is okay.

Although he had only met with Zhou Inspector, Han Yu was very uneasy when he thought of that person.

If there is anyone in this world who can hurt Zhou Erya, or to put it another way, someone can force Zhou Erya to take the road she doesn't want to take, it must be Zhou Overseer.

"What are you worried about?" Zhou Erya finished flipping through several newspapers on the table, looked up at Han Yu, saw the anxiety on his face that couldn't be hidden, and smiled faintly, "Don't worry about me, my affairs will be taken care of." ”

"What's the matter...... You must also tell me that although I am useless, I ......"

"Who said you're useless?" Zhou Erya interrupted him and smiled at him gently, "You are as useful as the sun in my heart." ”

Han Yu was stunned, then his face turned red, and his eyes were a little moist - can this brother use this kind of love words on his fiancée?

What is it to talk to him? It touched his heart so much, and he couldn't wait to be a woman in the next life and promise to each other.

"I ...... Go out and buy something. Han Yu didn't dare to look at his gentle smile, turned his face and walked out.

It happened that Miss Murong was coming, and he wanted to find an excuse to leave, so as not to be embarrassed by being a light bulb.

"Let Adjutant Cai buy it for you, Miss Murong will come over later, don't go." Zhou Erya didn't seem to see his abnormality, and after speaking lightly, she looked down at the newspaper again.

Han Yu wanted to avoid it because he didn't want to disturb them alone, but he didn't expect Zhou Erya to deliberately let him stay...... Is it because of shyness? I don't think Zhou Erya is a person who needs to be accompanied by courage......

Although Han Yu doesn't have a girlfriend and is not good at those loves, he also knows the general feelings of people and doesn't want to destroy their alone time.

"By the way, yesterday you came back late with Hua Dong's daughter, and she likes you?" Zhou Erya asked suddenly.

Han Yu was thinking about whether to continue to find an excuse to leave, but when he heard this question, he was caught off guard by the question, his face was full of embarrassment, and he said after a while: "No...... No, because I ran into her and lost her earrings, so I just invited her to a cup of coffee, and the reputation of the girl's family matters, don't talk nonsense. ”

He came back late last night, because the delicate and willful young lady insisted that he please watch a French movie, and kept pestering him, and he was a treat and a movie, and seeing that it was not safe for the two girls to go back in the middle of the night, he personally sent it back, and it was twelve o'clock in the middle of the night.

originally wanted to come back early and ask Zhou Erya what her plans were for the marriage, but she didn't dare to disturb in the middle of the night, so she went back to the room lightly.

"I didn't come back until half past twelve, and you didn't care about the reputation of the girl's family." Zhou Erya laughed, her tone elegant, but merciless.

Han Yu was even more embarrassed, when he sent the two girls home in the middle of the night, he was really nervous, for fear of being bumped into and spreading some news, but how did Zhou Erya know that he didn't come back until half past twelve?

Has he never slept?

"You...... Didn't you sleep last night? Han Yu bluntly changed the topic, and really didn't want to say more about Gu Xueli.

That girl is so terrible, Han Yu is really afraid of being photographed, but she is not afraid, and she is very ostentatious in the market.

"Well, I don't sleep much." Zhou Erya has always slept less, and he has insomnia.

"Are you worried about today's marriage?" Han Yu finally shifted the topic to Zhou Erya's matter.

Zhou Erya shook her head, she didn't want to say much about her illness, and she didn't want Han Yu to worry about herself: "It's just that I can't sleep habitually." ”

"What if you drink less coffee at night and don't eat too sweet, what if it affects your health?" Han Yu turned into an old woman, persuaded her bitterly, took away the dessert on the table by the way, and tasted the milk he hadn't drunk yet, and sure enough, there was countless sugar added to it, so sweet.

"Although Gu Xueli has a perverse personality, if she really likes you, she is also a good object, you don't have to worry about the difference in identity, because with her character, she will definitely stick to Hua Dong to let go." Zhou Erya added calmly, "At most, it's just a matter of breaking off the father-daughter relationship, and you can support her." ”

When Han Yu heard Zhou Erya's words, a mouthful of milk squirted out on his handsome and indifferent face.

Zhou Erya seemed to anticipate his reaction, and raised the newspaper in his hand to block most of the milk.

"You...... You think too much, it is impossible for me and her! Han Yu hurriedly wiped his mouth, unable to understand why Zhou Erya could say such things so calmly.

He couldn't afford to raise that pampered young lady.

The money she spent in a day was enough for him to save money for half a year.

"Don't talk so much." Zhou Erya smiled.

Although he and Gu Xueli have met a few times and haven't spoken a few words, they can already see that she has a strong personality and will not give up until she achieves her goal.

If you really like Han Yu's elm pimple, she will definitely be stalked, psychologically speaking, the more Han Yu refuses, the more Gu Xueli chases after her, when has she ever tasted the indifference of being ignored by others?

There is an old saying that a woman chases a man, if Gu Xueli chases and fights hard, and Han Yu is not accompanied by other women of the right age to marry, and if she gets along a few times, she will be easily captured.

"You should care more about yourself than about me." Han Yu thought that Gu Xueli wanted him to invite guests for a month, so he was very depressed and didn't want to mention Gu Xueli anymore.

After he finished wiping the milk, he saw the red circle drawn on the newspaper held by Zhou Erya, and sighed: "Is there an accident at the Women's University?" ”

So Murong came here because something happened in college?

Not because of their marriage?

During this period, the women's university protests were in full swing, with various progressive plays being rehearsed, and even boycotts were heard. The school is anxious, and the contradictions with the students are very acute.

It's like a plate of hot oil, and the slightest spark can cause a lot of trouble.

And listening to some of Murong's words yesterday, she is obviously also a progressive girl, if it involves political issues, it will be troublesome.

"I guess so, or she wouldn't have come to me." Zhou Erya smiled a little self-deprecatingly, and added in a low voice, "She doesn't want to marry me." ”

Adjutant Cai was instructing his subordinates to clean up the house, cut some flowers and put them in vases, he was very busy, he was more attentive than seeing his new daughter-in-law, and he didn't hear Zhou Erya's last words.

If he had heard it, he would not have such a happy smile on his face.

"Don't move, it's stained with milk." Han Yu's eyes were sharp, and he suddenly saw a little milk stain on Zhou Erya's cuffs.

Zhou Erya originally loved to be neat, and her clothes have always been meticulous and not stained with dust, and this milk stain on the cuffs of her white shirt is very eye-catching.

Just as Han Yu was holding Zhou Erya's hand and wiping it with a handkerchief dipped in boiled water to help him, he heard Adjutant Cai's joyful voice: "Miss Murong, you are here, please come in, please come in!" ”

Murong is dressed in the uniform of a women's university, which looks very simple at first glance, with a blue top, a pressed black skirt, and a pair of black college leather shoes under the white socks, but the well-fitting cut and the plain color make her tranquil and beautiful, with an indescribable feminine demeanor.

In addition, her shoulders are straight, although she is a woman, her face is neither humble nor arrogant, and she looks at men confidently and calmly, which is different from the lady who wore a dress and a hat on the boat.

Han Yu saw Murong clearly this time, and saw her beautiful face, a pair of dark eyes looked at him and Zhou Erya with interest, only to find that he was still holding someone's hand, and the posture was a little strange.

He quickly let go of his hand and tried to squeeze out a friendly smile: "Miss Murong, hello." ”

Adjutant Cai led the way, very attentive, invited Murong to sit down, and then glanced at Sister-in-law Zhang: "Go and make a cup of tea." ”

Usually, except for Zhou Erya, no one else can enjoy the treatment of Adjutant Cai.

Murong nodded to Han Yu, she was very impressed by Han Yu, when he was on the ship, he was often seen coming to the first-class cabin to find Zhou Erya, and after the murder, his performance has always been positive and enthusiastic, he is the kind of person who loves and hates the ancient way.

Compared with Han Yu, she was a lot disappointed in Zhou Erya - she didn't recognize his identity as her fiancé at that time, but just paid attention to him inexplicably, thinking that he was the kind of hero who would definitely stop the darkness.

However, when the coffin sank at sea, Zhou Erya did not stop it and did not react in any way, which made Murong very disappointed.

Even if he later found out the real culprit, Murong couldn't let go of it - probably she was a perfectionist, and she was more strict with those who had a good impression of her.

Compared with the excited Adjutant Cai and the somewhat embarrassed Han Yu, Zhou Erya was very calm and spoke unhurriedly: "Did something happen last night?" ”

When Murong heard this, his tired eyes lit up: "How do you know that something happened last night?" ”

Han Yu secretly observed Murong on the side, although the eldest lady of the rich merchant had delicate eyebrows, and even a little weak and graceful, there was a certain stubbornness in her dark almond eyes, and there was a trace of sadness and anger in her expression.

"It's good to speculate, we already talked about it yesterday, and if it weren't for the special incident that happened between last night and this morning, you wouldn't be here." Zhou Erya paused and added, "And this incident has nothing to do with our marriage contract, so you can't make it clear on the phone...... Or rather, our detective agency. ”

If it is related to the marriage contract, maybe Murong will go to the appointment, and in short, he will not appear in his mansion.

The joy on Adjutant Cai's face gradually faded, and he always felt that the young master's attitude towards Miss Murong was no longer an ordinary politeness, nor was it an emotional intelligence problem, but a deliberate avoidance of their relationship.

"Looks like I'm not in the wrong place." Murong finally showed a hint of a smile, although it was fleeting, but it gave her tired face a little more light.

Since the murder of the sea cruise ship Siren, she has been very impressed by Zhou Erya, and after returning to China, because she is busy with her studies, she doesn't like to read the news on the tabloid gossip page, and only occasionally hears the demeanor of the Eryu Detective Agency from her classmates, and knows that her "fiancé" is "not doing his job" to be a detective.

I made an appointment with Zhou Erya for the first time yesterday, but I didn't expect him to be a detective on the cruise ship, and I was in a very complicated mood at that time.

However, now is not the time to sort out those troubled feelings, Murong still hopes that Zhou Erya can help everyone solve the case.

"What's going on at school?" Seeing that her guess was correct, Zhou Erya sat down opposite her and asked.

Murong was silent for a while, as if she was thinking about where to start, she saw the place circled by Zhou Erya in the newspaper on the table, and suddenly sighed: "I didn't expect you to really have some ability." I originally wanted to use a dead horse as a live horse doctor, but now it seems that I can trust you for once. ”

Sure enough, something happened at the school.

Han Yu secretly stretched out his thumb to Zhou Erya, and admired it very much in his heart, no matter what, Zhou Erya's keen observation and meticulous logic were still very powerful.

Han Yu doesn't have the ability to be an unpredictable prophet.

Zhou Erya smiled faintly and made a gesture of please.

Adjutant Cai walked in and called the old man, it seemed that Zhou Erya couldn't pass on time, and he wanted to report the situation.

Then he came in with tea and snacks himself, and asked the cook to make three cookies.

Zhou Erya ate one first, not politely at all.

Murong didn't seem to like dim sum, so he didn't move, just took a sip of tea to moisten his throat, and began to recount the horrors that happened on campus.

“…… Last night, Bai Fei, the heroine of our troupe, fell down the stairs and died. There was no one around her at the time, only another member of the group, An Lin, who saw the whole process at the bottom of the stairs, but ......"

Han Yu frowned slightly, and couldn't help but interrupt her words: "Miss Mu, with all due respect, this kind of accident happens every day. ”

Since there was no one around her, it couldn't be a homicide, and she fell down the stairs and died, which is indeed more regrettable for a female college student in the prime of her youth, but ...... can only be said to be unlucky.

"No accident!"

Murong was a little excited.

The patrol room thought it was an accident, and the school would like to classify it as an accident.

But Murong didn't think so.

That's why she came to a private investigator.

There are many detective agencies in Shanghai, but since Murong is looking for it, she must find the most powerful top agency, and she will never avoid Zhou Erya because of this identity relationship.

Zhou Erya's IQ is undoubted, and with the power behind him, even if he encounters some obstacles, he can rely on the name of Zhou Overseer to settle smoothly.

Murong is different from others, she hates to waste time going around and around, if she wants to go, she will take the nearest road and go directly to her goal.

"You listen to me continue, the only eyewitness is also a member of our troupe, a good friend of Bai Fei, named An Lin. There was no one around her when she witnessed Bai Fei fall down the stairs, but ......"

Murong took a deep breath, paused, controlled his emotions, and tried to narrate more rationally and restore the scene at that time.

Zhou Erya appreciated her and nodded slightly.

"Since there are eyewitnesses, it is very clear, whether it was an accident or not, just ask her." Han Yu didn't want to interrupt their chat, but he couldn't help but interject about the case.

Then he felt that it was wrong, if the truth was so simple, there was no need for Murong to come to the Eryu Detective Agency.

Sure enough, Murong's expression was very serious, with a hint of pity and pain in his eyes, pretending to be as good as a star, he shook his head and said, "She...... Lose your marbles. Seeing Bai Fei pass away was too stimulating for her, and she is not mentally stable now. ”

"What? Lose your marbles? ”

Han Yu was surprised, it is true that if a friend with good feelings suddenly dies in front of him, it will be a cruel stimulus, and the young man may behave more violently - but as for the level of "crazy"?

Since it is the same troupe, this An Lin should also be Murong's classmate or even friend, with Murong's character, he will not casually use the word "crazy" to describe it.

It can only show that she is really crazy, or rather, she is really crazy.

Zhou Erya has been very calm, and after drinking the tea elegantly, her eyes fell on the sweet cookies in front of Murong.

Seeing that Han Yu and Murong were immersed in the case, he stretched out his hand, took Murong's cookies, put them to his mouth, and took a bite gently, the sugar and starch made people feel happy and satisfied.

"She has not been able to calm down, she has not slept all night, and she has said over and over again that Bai Fei was killed by a ghost, and it was a ghost who pushed her."

Murong sighed, a little discouraged, she was a materialist, of course she didn't believe in the existence of ghosts.

The so-called "ghosts" must be someone who is engaged in a conspiracy.

When Han Yu heard this, he couldn't help but glance at Zhou Erya.

Zhou Erya was not in a hurry, ate the biscuit elegantly, and said lightly: "In your description, whether it is a ghost, a crazy eyewitness, or the testimony of another classmate who saw him fall downstairs, it cannot prove that Bai Fei was killed and not an accident. ”

Murong also knew this, she tried her best to calm down, and continued: "Another important point, that section of the stairs, Bai Fei usually doesn't walk at all......"

The staircase where Bai Fei fell was the only way to an empty room backstage in the theater, which was not commonly used and was used as an equipment room, but rather a utility room.

Except for the drama, no one will go to this gloomy and dirty room, let alone Bai Fei, as the heroine, will not go alone.

"That's a little bit more interesting."

Zhou Erya finally showed a faint smile.

The deceased is showing up where it shouldn't be, which could be the key clue.

"Even so, it's not enough."

Han Yu still felt that the evidence was insufficient, although there were doubts, but he could not be so resolute.

"Then let's go over and have a look."

Zhou Erya shrugged, wiped her fingers, and stood up.

Han Yu was surprised, it was rare for Zhou Erya to be so positive, could it be that he smelled the smell of the twists and turns of the case?

Still is...... Purely for his fiancée?

——At this time, Han Yu remembered the relationship between the two, and when he thought of the decision between them yesterday, he suddenly felt a little embarrassed, and he didn't know whether he should follow or stay here.

"Let's go, Ah Yu, don't you want to visit the Women's University? Men are usually not allowed to enter at all. Zhou Erya whispered in his ear.

Han Yu blushed, he wasn't the kind of person who had nothing to do to see the student girl......

Murong saw Zhou Erya's intimate whisper to Han Yu, Han Yu's face turned red, and her face showed an interesting expression, as if she was studying something, her eyes became bright, and her eyes swept over the faces of the two big men.

These two people came back together from abroad, in the kind of open place in Europe, some of the habits that are popular in high society, maybe they are also contaminated, Murong is not an old-fashioned girl with conservative and outdated thoughts, and her vision is also lofty, so she was not too shocked from the moment she first entered the door and saw Han Yu and Zhou Erya holding hands and intimacy.

Thinking about it further, Zhou Erya's reluctance to marry may have something to do with this like-minded male friend around her?

The women's university has many famous ladies, and the gate is so tightly guarded that the general security guards will not let men in at all.

If it weren't for the murder case, even if Zhou Erya and Han Yu reported the name of the detective agency, they might not be able to enter the door smoothly.

This time, it was the principal's reluctance to approve that they were able to step through the door.

The building of the women's university is very classical, it is a group of three-story buildings built by Austrian designers at the beginning of the century, there is a large open space in front of the main building as a lawn and rest area, looking at the past with a wide view, green grass like weaving, the air is full of the breath of girls' youth and the fragrance of paper and ink, which makes people nostalgic for the carefree youth of seventeen or eighteen.

Probably because it's class time, and there's no one on the lawn, but behind the glass windows of every classroom, it's crowded with sparkling eyes.

When they walked through the corridor, because they were two men and good-looking men, the girls in the classroom screamed for a while, and Han Yu blushed and quickened his pace, feeling that he was being watched like a rare animal.

It can be seen from the uniforms of the women's universities that the atmosphere here is very open-minded, and the uniforms on each girl do not hide their youthful figures.

However, in this era, most of the students who can go to college have a good background and a fertile life, so the school uniform is also extremely elegant, highlighting the curves of women to the greatest extent.

Therefore, the girls here pay attention to their appearance while seeking knowledge, which is different from the girls outside.

It's just that the director of academic affairs is a somewhat rigid middle-aged woman, surnamed Qiu, who is responsible for receiving Zhou Erya and Han Yu.

At first, Director Qiu did not explain the case, but took the trouble to put forward various requirements for men to enter women's universities.

"Mr. Zhou, Mr. Han, our school has strict rules and regulations." She has repeatedly emphasized this point, not only because it is a special case to let men enter the school, but also because most of the girls here are indeed from very good families and do not want to cause trouble, "The girls in our school are all beautiful ladies with good character, and they will not behave a little lightly." ”

She wore huge black-framed glasses, her expression was serious, she was wearing a gray suit, almost her neck was tightly wrapped, and her every move revealed restraint and rigidity, which was in stark contrast to those youthful girls, which made Han Yu feel funny and dull.

“…… At the back is the girls' rest area, which cannot be entered under any circumstances. From half past eleven to half past one is lunch time, and you can't go upstairs......"

Director Qiu chattered endlessly, compared to Zhou Erya, who had always been very decent and elegant, Han Yu's expression was a little impatient.

"Teacher, don't worry, I'll take theirs." Finally, Murong spoke softly and gently.

When Director Qiu heard Murong's words, he reluctantly nodded: "With you, I am naturally relieved, it's just ...... No male has ever entered the school, so be careful about your dress and don't ......go shirtless."

"Teacher, I know, they are here to investigate the homicide, and they will leave after watching the scene and asking about the situation." Murong smiled and politely reminded Director Qiu.

Even the dress code has been sorted out, do you have to give each of them a student code if it continues like this?

Han Yu looked at his short sleeves, compared with Zhou Erya in a suit and leather shoes, he was indeed dressed casually, it seemed that Director Qiu was dissatisfied with himself.

Sure enough, Director Qiu glanced at Han Yu with some dissatisfaction, pushed his glasses, and said to Murong carefully: "This death incident, the patrol room is inconclusive, and it seems that it can't be called a homicide. ”

Director Qiu is still a little polite to Murong, she doesn't know the identities of Zhou Erya and Han Yu, but she knows the background of each student in the school well, especially Murong, a wealthy businesswoman with top-notch academic performance, and she is even more concerned.

Murong smiled obediently at Director Qiu: "That's why I hired a private detective, don't worry about their secrecy work." ”

Director Qiu still glanced at Han Yu with a little disgust, but he was polite to Zhou Erya, after all, Zhou Erya was talented, charming in appearance, and was invited by Murong, looking at the expensive suit and watch, he didn't look like a low-status person.

Han Yu glanced at this old woman who was still looking at people with colored glasses, and only complained to Zhou Erya when she left the office with her breath: "When something happens, you only know how to hide illness and avoid medical treatment, and hide it." Isn't it useful not to admit homicide? ”

"What if it's really an accident?" Zhou Erya looked at the gloomy corridor of the Women's University, and without waiting for Murong to open her mouth to refute, she added lightly, "A man-made accident is also an accident." ”

The corridor of the women's university is not well lit, only the side windows at both ends have lighting, and you can feel the cool atmosphere at the end of midsummer.

The dean's office was in the middle of the room, near the main staircase, with a dim light bulb hanging overhead, and only a faint halo in front of it was not enough to bring clear illumination.

In such an environment, it is indeed easy to breed terrifying legends and stories.

"Anyway, let's take a look at the scene first." Han Yu said.

Zhou Erya looked upstairs, and there was a little more disgust in her calm expression.

He stuck one hand in his pocket, and the buttons of his suit were tightly buttoned, not even one of them loosened. With the other hand, he took out a handkerchief and covered it with the tip of his nose.

The smell of death and decay seemed to be blown by the wind from upstairs, which was very unpleasant.

Han Yu also felt uncomfortable, even if it was what happened last night. The corpse had also been removed a long time ago, but the shadow of death still hung in place, and even Han Yu could feel it.

The building is a classical building, with a slight bow shape and open sides, with a wide main staircase leading to the upper floors in the middle of the building and a relatively narrow side staircase at both ends.

The location of the accident is the secondary staircase between the third floor and the third and a half floors on the west side of the building.

Murong took the two of them, according to the request of the dean of academic affairs, avoided the main staircase where there might be female students going up and down, and walked directly to the bottom of the west side of the corridor, and climbed up the side ladder from the side staircase that he didn't use much.

- The lighting here is even worse, because no one will walk from here, the light bulbs on the second to third floors have been damaged and not repaired, and there are chores piled up in the corridors, and the smell of dust is strong.

"Do you have a cleanliness fetish?" Murong led the way in front and suddenly asked.

Her voice has always been soft, but she has always had her own thoughts and power.

"No, I just don't like dirt." Zhou Erya replied lightly.

"Discomfort with this level of hygiene is cleanliness." When Murong showed his teeth and smiled, the corners of his lips were a little round and blunt, and he looked very girlish and coquettish.

Cleanliness is a kind of obsessive-compulsive disorder, which is a kind of behavioral cleanliness that perceives things within the scope of normal hygiene as dirty, feels anxious, and compulsively examines and rejects "unclean" things.

Based on Murong's observation of Zhou Yaer, when he was eating, he would wipe the silver spoon of the café with a handkerchief, try to avoid direct contact with things outside, and cover his nose with a handkerchief for this level of dust and rotten smell, which shows that he has a habit of cleanliness.

But the children of wealthy families have a little pampered quirks.

A lady like her, who looks clean and tidy, but can actually tolerate dust and dirt, is a freak in the eyes of high society.

"I just don't like the disgusting smell of death." Zhou Erya didn't want to explain, but she didn't want her to misunderstand.

"You're so squeamish." Murong walked quickly, flashing his watery eyes, standing upstairs waiting for them, the corners of his lips pursed into a straight line, without a round and blunt smile, he looked very bookish and ladylike, revealing intelligence.

Zhou Erya smiled faintly, did not refute, and strode across the stairs to the third floor.

Han Yu followed closely, he knew that Zhou Erya would never like the environment here.

The classroom on the west side of the third floor, where the troupe operates, is empty at this time.

"This is where the troupe was last night." Murong walked here with them and introduced.

The building of the Women's University occupies a large area, but the number of students and faculty is limited, and the main rooms on the three floors are close to the main staircase and the area with better light on the east side, which is already relatively deserted, and many of them are student club activity rooms.

Zhou Erya glanced at the surrounding environment and nodded: "Many classrooms outside are closed, have club activities been stopped?" ”

"It's eventful, you've also seen the reports in the newspapers, but those are just the tip of the iceberg, in fact, there is a lot of trouble inside......" Murong felt that he had said too much to him, sighed, and stopped talking, "In short, the school is very strict now, so there are usually no people here now." ”

Recently, due to the high-pressure policy of the school and the strict control of student clubs, most clubs have stopped their activities, and the west area has become more empty, many classrooms are locked doors, and there is no one to see for half a day.

The troupe had to use the auditorium and stage on the third floor, so the event room had to be located in this location.

The staircase was next to the activity room, leading to the equipment room behind the stage and above the tabernacle.

At this time, of course, the door to the equipment room is also locked.

There was a three-foot-square platform at the door, and Bai Fei rolled down the stairs from that position and finally broke her neck.

The body had been removed, and all traces had been cleaned up, except for a shocking dark red at the corner of the staircase, a reminder of the tragedy of the previous night.

"You go up and take a closer look."

Zhou Erya saw the bloodstains, stood far away, and waved his hand to Han Yu.

He doesn't usually hate blood so much, but it's old and poorly ventilated, and the stairs are very narrow, if you go up, your clothes will definitely rub dust, and it's suffocating to look at.

"I'll take you." Murong was very helpless about Zhou Erya being so squeamish, originally his image in his heart had recovered a little, but now he had fallen back.

Murong was petite, walking on the narrow and steep stairs like a light butterfly.

Compared with Murong, Han Yu was tall and strong, carefully leaning against the wall, stepping up the stairs, slowly ascending step by step, and saying as he walked: "The design of this staircase is a bit narrow, and the slope is still very steep, Miss Mu, be careful." ”

He also felt uncomfortable, the oppressive feeling of being confined to him.

"Because the spacing is relatively short, the stairs are not friendly to you boys." Murong looked back and said very thoughtfully.
