-Why?”

After Shu Ling asked, she clicked her tongue. “Forget it, we’re like fish on the chopping board now, waiting to be slaughtered…”

“Speaking of fish.” Jiang Xuyan was confused. “Qingyou, where did you get this fried fish? And Zhizhi, I haven’t seen it all day!”

“The fish was prepared by the kitchen. Zhizhi doesn’t eat cat food.”

Song Qingyou answered one by one, “Zhizhi probably isn’t interested in my recording, so he’s been lying in the pocket of my desk in the classroom.”

As Jiang Zhihan listened to their conversation, he buried his head in his fish and ignored Song Qingyou’s hand that occasionally reached over to touch his head.

In fact, it wasn’t that he wasn’t interested in Song Qingyou recording a show.

He was happy to be with Song Qingyou all day long.

The problem was that there was too much work accumulated. Fang Yan could not make all the decisions. He could only race against time to deal with it.

Moreover, Jiang Quan and Dong Xi had already returned to the country and had been very restless recently.

Jiang Xuyan nodded. “No wonder I didn’t see him. But Zhizhi is really obedient. He even knows to come to find his master. Haha is gone.”

“If Haha were to participate in this episode, he might be able to bring us to discover a lot of things.”

Tang Zinian felt that it was a pity, but then he thought of something. “Hey, Sister Qingyou, you’re so powerful. Did Zhizhi learn a lot of skills? For example, tracking smells and the like…”

Before Song Qingyou could respond, the cat, who was eating the fish with relish, raised its head.

His cold gaze sent chills down Tang Zinian’s spine.

“Forget it, so… He’s a cute cat, not a dog.”

“Are you afraid of cats?” Yu Muhuai asked.

“No.” Perhaps he had seen wrongly.

“Is that so? 1 thought you were shivering just now.”

“It might be a sudden cramp in my hand.”

Shu Ling also felt that Tang Zinian’s reaction was strange, but she didn’t think too much about it. She only said calmly, “Instead of pinning our hopes on our pets, why don’t we think about what we’ll be doing tonight? Since everyone’s here, we can come up with a solution.”

“Can’t you sleep well at night?” Tang Zinian pursed his lips.

Shu Ling: “If it were that simple, we wouldn’t be set up to stay in a dormitory.”

Zhao Yingnan also echoed, “We have to come out to investigate tonight.”

“Sister Yingnan, you’ve read more of our files. Did you find something?” Song Qingyou looked at her.

Facing everyone’s gaze, Zhao Yingnan nodded. “Ghost stories should appear at night. The information didn’t mention the exact time.”

“One of the ghost stories about the Red Maple Tree is that a student saw a corpse hanging on a tree at night. After calling for help, they found nothing.”

” Rumor has it that the tree with the corpse is the third from the back on the right.”

As she spoke, Zhao Yingnan took out a notebook.

“By the way, the information in the activity room is not allowed to be brought out. This is a note I made.”

“There’s a lot of information. I feel like there’s nothing useful about it. Other than the Red Maple, I also found a news report about a murder.”

As the notebook flipped, everyone saw the news that Zhao Yingnan had transcribed.

The title was [ Food Science Teacher Poisoned in Class. Accident? Or intentional?]

The following content, Zhao Yingnan wrote more and more sloppily, which showed that time is too tight.

However, most of the words were still recognizable.

The news first explained the relevant information of this food major teacher, as well as his personality and interpersonal relationships.

To put it simply, this teacher was more of a Buddhist. He had a gentle personality and was well-liked by the students. He was very popular and it was almost impossible for him to have enemies.

Later, the teacher’s death was explained.

During the wine tasting class, he took a sip of wine and was poisoned on the spot. All the students witnessed it with their own eyes.

Furthermore, the teacher wasn’t the only one who drank the wine. Two other students had also drunk it, but the two students didn’t have any reaction, but the teacher was poisoned and died.

The bottle of wine was tested later and it was indeed poisoned.

However, not only did the two students have no motive to poison him, but there was also no antidote in their bodies.

“No matter how you look at it,” Yu Muhuai said, “those two students are very suspicious. But there’s no evidence.”

Jiang Xuyan looked at it several times before he opened his mouth in a daze. “You mean, this is still an unsolved case?”

Everyone nodded.

“Director Wei really thinks highly of me for asking us to investigate this kind of thing…”

Jiang Xuyan said and suddenly became alert, “Could it be that the human body model in the biochemical laboratory is the teacher of this food major… Did he possess it?”

His voice suddenly dropped, causing everyone to be shocked.

“Ah!”

Zhao Yingnan exclaimed and grabbed Song Qingyou’s arm.

Xu Xingzhou: “Teacher Jiang, don’t scare people.”

He pointed to Zhao Yingnan’s notebook. “Look at the time recorded by Teacher Zhao. The ghost story in the biochemical laboratory originated three years ago, and the time of death of this teacher was a year ago.”

“That’s true.” Jiang Xuyan smiled and quickly changed the topic.

“Then the question is, what exactly happened to this murder case? If it’s not to confuse the public, could it be that this teacher had discovered something?”

“It’s very possible.”

Shu Ling was deep in thought. Just as Jiang Xuyan was about to take the laptop away, she suddenly stopped him. “Wait.”

“Look here.”

She pointed at the last line of notes that had almost turned into cursive.

“Does this mean that the bottle of wine is still in the laboratory?”

Zhao Yingnan, who didn’t use her brain to copy directly, looked at it for a while and nodded. “It should be. This sentence is about the laboratory being the crime scene. The relevant items of the case are all in it… It’s already been sealed off. Staff and students are not allowed to enter that place…”

There was a high chance that the bottle was still inside.

Normally, this thing should be under police jurisdiction, but this was a program recording…

The group of people ignored this small bug and immediately decided to go to the security guard to get the key.

There was still half an hour of activity time after dinner, so they did not have to worry about being chased to the dormitory building.

However, it was not that easy to get the key.

The few of them found the security room and explained their intentions. They were immediately chased out by the two security guards inside.

“You’re not allowed to enter or leave that laboratory. Even if I have the key, 1 can’t give it to you.”

His attitude could be said to be very firm.

The group looked at each other. Yu Muhuai immediately looked at Song Qingyou. “What about Senior Song? Can’t she come over to get the key?”

The security guard glanced at Song Qingyou. “It doesn’t matter even if she’s the daughter of the board of directors! Unless the board of directors can come over personally, I definitely can’t give you the key!”

Everyone tried to persuade him, but it was useless.

When they were a little further away, Tang Zinian said, “I looked out the window and saw that they seemed to have hung the key on the wall. If they don’t give it to us, we might have to go and get it secretly.”

Jiang Xuyan also started to think. “The other person said that they will be in the security room during the day. Does that mean they won’t be here at night?”

“The security guards usually need to patrol at night.” Shu Ling agreed. “We can come back at night to get the keys. Don’t come together, lest we get discovered.”

“Alright.”

Song Qingyou made the decision..
