Chapter 25: This Is the Truth
I still had something in my heart that I couldn't put down, so I dialed Zhang Fan's phone early the next morning, but I didn't know what was going on, and I couldn't get through.
In the evening, the welcome party was held as scheduled, of course, the performance of the repertory troupe that was originally the finale was completely canceled, in addition to the director and Yang Yanyan, they only left Shu Yanan, Zhu Hibiscus and He Huan, but they still watched the performance as an audience.
It's rare that this time Ding Yubin actually joined us in the fun, maybe because Ding Yubin rarely showed up, and many girls in other classes didn't know about his existence, but he didn't seem to care at all, just found a very quiet corner to sit in, which strengthened my opinion of him: really unsociable
The party went on very smoothly, and soon it was Zhang Kexin and Zhan Tiantian's duet program, it is worth mentioning that the program of the two of them replaced the previous performance of the repertory troupe and became the finale program, several people in our dormitory cheered them up, Zhan Tiantian's expression seemed to be a little nervous, I asked with a smile
"What's the matter, Sister Tian, shouldn't you be nervous?"
Zhan Tiantian didn't speak, just glared at me, turned his head and said to Guo Hongyi
"Brother Guo, I have something to ask you..."
I suddenly remembered that in order to "save my life", I said that Guo Hongyi likes Zhan Tiantian, should she be asking about this? I immediately sweated profusely and hurriedly stopped it
"Sweet, Sister Tian, don't ask, what's the matter, etc..."
At this time, my phone rang, it was Officer Hu calling, I hurriedly answered the phone, and said anxiously
"Hello? What are you doing? Human life is at stake now, if it's nothing important, let's talk about it later. ”
"Of course it's an important thing, the case has..."
The performance on stage continued, and the whole small auditorium was so noisy that I couldn't hear what Officer Hu was saying, and shouted
"What? What's there? Wait a minute, I'm too noisy, I'll go somewhere quiet. ”
Saying that, he gave Su Yong, Guan Shuang, and Zhang Kexin a look, and asked them to stop Zhan Tiantian, and then I looked around, and it seemed that only Ding Yubin was quieter, and I walked to his side and asked
"Officer Hu, what did you just say?"
"I said, there are new circumstances in the case."
After hearing what Officer Hu said, my heart was pinched together again, and I hurriedly asked
"What do you mean? What did you find? ”
"When I was sorting out Wu Tong's relics just now, I found that his phone had two call records before he died, and I dialed it with my mobile phone and found that it was a takeaway phone from a barbecue restaurant."
At this time, I thought back to the delivery guy who was in a very bad mood that night
"Boss, I called the man just now, I'm here, and he said no, don't you play with people at night? Next time, you have to collect the money first. ”
"Hey, are you still listening?"
"Listening, listening, Officer Hu, do you mean to say that Wu Tong ordered takeout before he died?"
"That's right, but a person who is about to commit suicide, how can he order takeout?"
At this time, I noticed that Ma Yingdan and He Huan walked into the side door of the small hall, which is usually a place where no one usually goes at all, for some reason, the small hall is obviously very noisy, but I don't seem to hear any sound, it is very quiet, my heart is very calm, I entered my own space again, I figured out a lot of things in an instant, and hurriedly said to Officer Hu
"Officer Hu, I know what's going on, there's a murderer, bring someone over quickly!"
"Good! Don't act rashly! I'll go right over! ”
After hanging up the phone, I did a struggle of thoughts, or decided to go to Ma He and the others, originally wanted to call Ding Yubin, but now I have some prejudices against him, I don't bother to talk to him, and I ran in the direction of the side door alone.
"I understand everything, the matter is all settled, and if I'm not mistaken, he still wants to kill another person."
With this thought, I hurriedly ran into the side door, and after entering the room, I was a little surprised, it was Ma Yingdan who fell to the ground, but it was He Huan who was standing.
He Huan gasped heavily, giving me the feeling that he should have been greatly frightened, from the current situation, it should be Ma Yingdan who wanted to kill He Huan, but He Huan defeated Ma Yingdan in self-defense.
I walked up to He Huan and patted him on the shoulder and comforted
"Okay, don't be afraid, it's over, the police will be there soon."
At this time, He Huan raised his head, looked at me with a hideous face, the vicious eyes really scared me, I instinctively let go of the way a few steps, through the dim light, I saw Ma Yingdan lying on the ground, he was knocked down, motionless, not panting, obviously dead, and from the wound, it was hit on the forehead by a heavy object, a fatal blow, that is, it was not a self-defense counterattack at all, it was He Huan who intended to kill.
After realizing this, I came in with some regret and said with a dry laugh
"Uh... Well, isn't this a bathroom? I'm sorry, I went to the wrong place, I left first. ”
Usually this kind of idiotic reason is impossible to fool around, and this time there was no accident, He Huan roared angrily and rushed towards me, but fortunately, he didn't seem to be able to fight at all, I easily dodged his fist, and then kicked him in the lower abdomen, and picked up a brick and slapped it on his face, he screamed in pain, and blood flowed.
I didn't expect him to be weaker than Du Ruo, at this time I had already won the battle, and threw away half of the brick in my hand in a posture that I thought was very handsome, and the drama was like a good body, shaking his head, and learning the tone of the Japanese manga characters and said
"Give up, you can't beat me, we're not in the same dimension."
The tone was full of regret, but what I didn't expect was that he picked up an iron baseball bat from behind the table and waved it, and then I thought that Ma Yingdan was hit in the head by a heavy object and died, He Huan did have a weapon.
"It's over, it's too big."
I cursed in my heart, in the face of the waving iron rod, I could only dodge carefully, but after all, this is not a movie, I am not Jackie Chan, after dodging 2 or 3 times, he used all his strength to smash the stick on my head, I dodged as much as I could, but I was still hit in the shoulder, my originally injured shoulder.
At that moment, I felt the pain like the sky was falling, my muscles were screaming, my bones were creaking, and I was directly beaten to the ground, I tried to lift my shoulder, but I couldn't do it, I realized that my shoulder was dislocated again.
I was beaten to the arm, He Huan held the iron rod again, the tide of the battle reversed in an instant, at this moment I have almost no chance of winning, at this time He Huan, who has already killed the red eye, once again brandished the iron rod and rushed towards me, with a hideous expression and blood on his face, like a beast that has completely released its beastly nature, wanting to devour me alive.
If you want to say before, I guess I was too scared to move, but after watching too much life and death in the past few days, I have become more calm, anxious, and have used a trick
With a "plop", I knelt down for He Huan and pleaded
"Big brother! In fact, I have always admired your talent, you see how good you are, you can change the script when you say it, and you can still act, give me a chance, let me learn from you. ”
He Huan didn't expect me to be so shameless, he was really stunned, wiped the blood that flowed into his eyes, and looked at me incredulously.
I hurriedly said again
"Big brother, that brick just now is actually a joke, I'm like this, the joke is not deep or shallow, and my girlfriend is pregnant, although the child may not be mine, but I'm going to be a father, how can you bear to kill me?"
I was already so frightened that I started to talk nonsense, He Huan took two breaths and scolded loudly
"Are you an idiot to me?"
Aimed the iron rod at my head again, at this moment I had already accepted my fate, closed my eyes tightly, and the iron rod immediately smashed on my head, only to hear the sound of "bang", the entire side door was kicked down, He Huan was so frightened that he took two steps back, and I was also scared to look back to check the situation, it turned out to be Ding Yubin, probably because I was kneeling, Ding Yubin looked very majestic, at that moment, I seemed to see God.
"Let's stop it!" Ding Yubin said to He Huan with a very serious expression, I pondered for a moment and asked timidly
"Ding... Ding Yubin, you're saying, 'You can stop in moderation', right? ”
Ding Yubin glanced at me and didn't say much, but He Huan didn't care about that, and continued to wave the iron rod, this time his target was Ding Yubin, and he yelled in his mouth
"Kill you all!"
But Ding Yubin didn't have the slightest intention of hiding, and stood there without moving, so frightened that I shouted loudly
"Danger! Get out of the way! ”
At the moment when the iron rod immediately hit him, Ding Yubin actually raised his left hand and forcibly blocked the iron rod.
"I... me, resist it? I was stunned, and He Huan was even more frightened that he was about to pee his pants, and looked at Ding Yubin with wide eyes.
Ding Yubin then roared again
"Hold back the fruit!"
"You, do you mean don't go too far?"
Ding Yubin freed his right hand and slammed it on He Huan's lower abdomen, He Huan couldn't bear it, bent down and took two steps back, he didn't even have the strength to hold the iron rod, the iron rod rolled to the side, He Huan covered his stomach, slowly knelt on the ground, coughing nonstop, and then Ding Yubin walked in front of He Huan again, crossed his hands and turned to He Huan's cheeks, I could see that Ding Yubin collected a lot of strength this time, but he still knocked He Huan unconscious.
After dealing with He Huan, Ding Yubin hurriedly came over to inquire about my injuries
"Yang'er, how are you, are you okay?"
Facing this person who had just saved my life, my heart was full of fear, and I looked at Ding Yubin and said
"Ding... No, big, big brother, I'm fine. ”
"What do you call me?"
"Nope..."
With the support of Ding Yubin, we left the side room and returned to the small auditorium, at this time it happened to be Zhang Kexin and Zhan Tiantian's duet, watching the perfect performance of the two of them, I gave them a thumbs up, and then in a round of applause, the whole party ended smoothly.
At this time, the police and doctors came, the forensic doctor took Ma Yingdan's body away, and the police also handcuffed He Huan, but out of humanitarianism, the doctor also treated him.
Ding Yubin and I were also being treated by doctors, and Ding Yubin's arm was also severely beaten with an iron rod, and it was swollen very high.
The doctor comforted me and said
"It's okay, although it hurts the bone, but after a while, it'll be fine, and you don't need to put a cast."
At this time, Officer Hu also came to ask me how my injuries were, and I shook my head, indicating that there was no serious problem.
Officer Hu asked again
"What the hell is going on? Didn't you explain what was going on on the phone? ”
I said as I pulled out my shoulders and asked the doctor to bandage them
"The first case and the second case, in fact, we have already figured it out, the murderers are Yang Bauhinia and Wu Tong, the problem is the third case, in fact, Du Ruo committed suicide."
"Suicide? How is that possible? Obviously, there is that kind of secret room technique. Su Yong asked.
"That's right, as we thought, Du Ruo knew that the murderer of Yang Zijing was Wu Tong and wanted to avenge her, plus after Yang Zijing died, he didn't want to live at all, so he disguised suicide as his murder to frame Wu Tong."
Guan Shuang hurriedly asked
"How so? Obviously, there is Wu Tong's hair at the scene, and there are sleeping pills..."
"That's all a conspiracy, the hair is very easy to get, just go to the dressing room and find the wooden comb that Wu Tong used, how much that kind of thing you need, as for the sleeping pills, he deliberately put them in the drink and drank them, so that we thought he was killed after being stunned."
Officer Hu asked
"When did you feel like he was suicidal?"
I moved my aching shoulder and continued
"Because there are too many clues at the scene that are conducive to solving the case, super glue box, half a screw, that prisoner has enough time to complete the secret room, but accidentally left such important evidence? It's incredible, and I also said that it will take a long time to complete this secret room, if it weren't for Du Ruo's initiative to live in such a remote place, the plan would not have succeeded at all, so all this was to prepare for framing Wu Tong. Maybe it's because I'm afraid that we won't be able to solve the case, so I used such a crude method, no wonder I can easily guess it, it seems that I am still far away. ”
I laughed at myself.
Officer Hu asked again
"No wonder Wu Tong's suicide note didn't mention Du Ruo's matter, by the way, what about Wu Tong's case? There is obviously a suicide note. ”
"That's right, immediately after the fourth case, Wu Tong's case, I think he really wanted to commit suicide at first, so he started to write a suicide note, but I always felt that he didn't have enough courage to kill himself."
"Why?" Zhu asked
"The suicide note should be concise and to the point, but he wrote so much, it shows that he is deliberately delaying time, for a person who wants to commit suicide, when the suicide note is finished, it is time to commit suicide, but he has written so much, there is only one answer, he doesn't want to die. And the murderer who really killed Wu Tong should have seen the suicide note, decided to plan it, and had murderous intent. ”
Officer Hu added for me
Not only that, but he also ordered takeout, how could a person who wanted to die order takeout? However, if he was killed, who was the murderer? ”
"It's Ma Yingdan." I said it categorically
"Why? Are you so sure? ”
"It's very simple, Wu Tong has never left the hotel, so the only people who can kill people are Ma Yingdan, Shu Yanan, Yang Yanyan, He Huan, and Zhu Hibiscus."
"Yes, there are so many people, why is it Ma Yingdan?" Su Yong asked
"It's the voice."
"What? Sound? ”
"That's right, Wu Tong called the takeaway guy before, so the takeaway brother heard Wu Tong's voice, when he called Wu Tong and said that it would be delivered immediately, Wu Tong should have died, so he couldn't let the takeaway brother come in, he could only say no, the one who answered the phone must be the murderer, but the takeaway brother didn't feel any strange when he heard the murderer's voice, it can be shown that the murderer's voice is very similar to Wu Tong."
"Yes, their voices are really similar, I just remembered that He Huan missed the voices of the two at the beginning. It's really ironic, Du Ruo, who looks like he killed him, actually committed suicide, and Wu Tong, who looks like he committed suicide, turned out to be killed by him. Guo Hongyi said with emotion.
Zhang Kexin asked
"Then what is the reason why Ma Yingdan killed Wu Tong?"
I shrugged my shoulders and said
"I'm not a god, who knows?"
After speaking, I glanced at He Huan on the side, I should be able to guess the reason for his killing, it should be the reason why his talent has not been displayed for a long time, and he was bullied by Ma Yingdan.
The truth of the matter was finally revealed, all doubts have disappeared, and this is how things happened, Yang Zijing killed Jacaranda because of jealousy, Wu Tong killed Yang Zijing for revenge, Du Ruo committed suicide to frame Wu Tong for revenge, Ma Yingdan killed Wu Tong for some reason, and finally He Huan killed Ma Yingdan because of long-term dissatisfaction.
At this time, Guan Shuang asked a question that made me think about it for a long time
"If Ma Yingdan didn't kill Wu Tong, and Song Yang cracked the truth about Du Ruo's suicide, and we have no evidence to prove that Wu Tong killed Yang Zijing, wouldn't Du Ruo die in vain? So are we still righteous? ”
Guo Hongyi continued to ask
"But Wu Tong also killed because Yang Zijing killed Jacaranda, and he didn't deserve to die, what is justice?"
"The so-called justice is to let the bad guys be punished, but the good guys have to pay for their lives."
Yang Yanyan's answer made it difficult for each of us to accept, but we didn't know how to refute it, and we all kept silent, is the reality so cruel?
I looked at Yang Yanyan blankly, feeling that this woman was like a mirage, very close and far away, whenever I thought I understood her very well, but she would say something surprising.
Hearing Yang Yanyan say this, Officer Hu was a little angry, and said as if a teacher was teaching us
"Little girl, don't talk nonsense, no one can commit a crime, Du Ruo committed suicide and wanted to frame others, he doesn't represent justice at all, Wu Tong kills people for revenge, he doesn't represent justice at all, the two of them just represent the most evil side of human hearts, like beasts, trampling on other people's precious lives in order to vent their anger in their hearts, this kind of crime is destined to be made public, and the law is a treasure book to suppress human bestiality, so never commit a crime."
Yang Yanyan was dumbfounded, Su Yong muttered
"This drama troupe, how can there be so many murderers..."
Su Yong's voice was not loud, but it was still heard by Zhu Jin, who said with a long sigh
"In fact, our relationship at the beginning was very good, and we would not say anything dissatisfied with each other, who would have thought that we cherished each other so much, but because of the accumulation of dissatisfaction, it finally reached the point of irreconcilability, maybe friendship is so fragile." He looked at us and continued
"I wonder how long your friendship will last?"
"Forever!" Zhan Tiantian said without hesitation, and Zhu Jian shook his head and said
"Once, I thought our friendship would..."
"You're not right." Zhan Tiantian retorted directly
"The so-called friendship is not to maintain the harmony on the surface, but a group of people who are happy together, once there is any dissatisfaction between us, we will say it, and if there is any displeasure, we will say it, so we will never change, and our friendship will last forever."
"Well said, Sister Tian."
Su Yong praised and applauded at the same time, and under the leadership of Su Yong, we also burst into applause, making Zhan Tiantian a little embarrassed.
I said too
"I didn't expect Sister Tian to say such philosophical words, hahaha."
Noticing that I was talking, Zhan Tiantian put away her smile and looked at me angrily, her tone becoming fierce
"By the way, Song Yang, I asked Brother Guo about that just now, don't you think, should you say something to me?"
Hearing Zhan Tiantian say this, my smile suddenly stiffened, and I set my eyes on Su Zhangguan and the others.
"You don't have to look at it." Zhan Tiantian said
"The three of them are now tainted witnesses and are responsible for accusing you."
I kept scolding the three of them for not being righteous enough, but I said it
"Sweet... Sister Tian, aren't we good friends, can't you..."
"Hey~ Didn't I say it, if there is any dissatisfaction between good friends, you have to say it, Song Yang, you have a kind, you dare to lie to me? I actually kind of admire you. ”
"Wait a minute, wait a minute." I turned my head and asked the doctor
"Is my wound bandaged?"
The doctor nodded
"It was bandaged five minutes ago."
"Hahahaha!" My sudden laughter was confusing, Zhan Tiantian asked
"What are you laughing at? Hit stupid? ”
"No, no, no." I slowly stood up and said
"I just used laughter to hide the embarrassment in my heart."
After hearing this, Zhan Tian was furious
"Are you admitting that you lied to me!?"
"That's right." I shouted, and I ran away.
"Stop me, I'll take off your other arm today!"
"Hey, hey, classmate, it's bandaged, you can't run around."
"Hey, don't make a fuss, where are you going?"
With laughter and scolding, we chased around the whole campus for a long time, and these will become the most precious memories of our lives, just like our friendship.
After returning to the dormitory, I called Zhang Fan's phone again, and this time I finally got through.
"Hello? Do you have to call so late every time? ”
"You still say, I can't get through after a day of calling."
"I don't know how to do it today, and I had a one-day meeting, what's wrong?"
I said with a slight smugness
"What's wrong? Do you know, you're mistaken, the one who played the recording committed suicide at all, not him. ”
Zhang Fan's tone was a little natural
"I know he's committing suicide and trying to frame someone."
I was slightly stunned at first, and then sneered
"You just blow it, how do you know."
"Because there's something weird."
I asked curiously
"What?"
Zhang Fan explained slowly
"If he was really killed without the ability to resist after being charmed with sleeping pills, then how could he have grabbed the murderer's hair? The only explanation is that he was in a trance. ”
I was speechless by Zhang Fan's reasoning, he saw through everything so easily, and in that state of sleep? Again, a case that I worked so hard to solve, and he just had to think about it to solve it?
Thinking about it, I got angry and asked
"Then you didn't say it last night?"
Zhang Fan asked in surprise
"Why didn't I say that? I said it last night. ”
Remembering that he was sleepy and couldn't speak clearly, maybe those alien words I didn't understand were just that, I continued to ask
"Then what else do you say, if it is his murder, the murderers are those two women."
"Yes, what I'm saying is if, I just want to tell you that there can be no limitations in solving the case, don't always think that the murderer is a person, this case, isn't it a good proof? However, if it were me, by the names of these people, I would subconsciously think that this was a multi-person murder. ”
I feel that his cowhide is really blowing up this time, and mocked
"What are you kidding? Name? ”
"yes, didn't you notice that their names are all flowers and trees?"
"Really?"
I slowly repeated their names
"Sycamore, Du Ruo, Acacia flower, Yanan, Yang Bauhinia... Really! What a coincidence. ”
"If it were me, I would have noticed this very quickly, and then I would have thought of the phrase "hiding the leaves in the forest", and I would subconsciously wonder if it would be a homicide of many people, you are still far away."
"yes, I still need to learn." I reluctantly catered to
"But it's amazing that these guys can come up with such subtle tricks."
Zhang Fan's sentence should be the only thing I can't figure out at the moment, why can the members of an ordinary drama troupe come up with such a subtle technique, especially Yang Bauhinia, not only exquisite, but also almost destroyed all the evidence, is there a master's guidance? It can't be, maybe it's just a coincidence.
After a few words with Zhang Fan, I hung up the phone, and then I dialed a friend's phone
"Hey, Kaidi, do me a favor, help me break one of Lingling's current boyfriend's legs, yes, I've been to that school before, I'm afraid of being recognized, it's inconvenient to show up, thank you."
……
The next morning, with bandages on my shoulders and band-aids on my face, I was walking with my roommates on my way to class when I heard two girls discussing us behind me.
"It's them, I heard that they broke the instructor murder incident, and the serial murder incident of the repertory troupe."
"It's them, they're amazing."
At that moment, I felt very satisfied, and I knew that I was enjoying it, so I gritted my teeth, turned around, opened my arms, and shouted like a declaration
"Ladies and gentlemen, the TLH Detective Corps has been formed! You can come to us if you have any difficulties. ”
Su Yong and the others asked in unison
"Huh?"
