Song Qingyou didnât usually talk much.
However, she had always been very proactive.
Now that everyone was discussing the case, everyone would analyze it a little. Song Qingyou didnât say anything, so it was inevitable that it would arouse suspicion.
When Yu Muhuai said this, the others also reacted.
Xu Xingzhou casually broke the short silence.
âMaybe Qingyou hasnât figured out the key.â
Song Qingyouâs expression didnât change. âNo, I have some ideas.â
âI didnât participate in the discussion because I wanted to hear your thoughts first.â
At this point, a puzzled expression appeared on her face.
âMuhuai seems to be targeting me today. Do you suspect that Iâm one of the murderers?â
Without waiting for Yu Muhuai to answer, Zhao Yingnan whispered, âThe possibility of Qingyou is too small. Not only did she receive a threatening letter, but she is also the next board member of the school.â
A murder in the school wasnât a good thing for Song Qingyou, the daughter of the board of directors.
Yu Muhuai smiled. âIâm just doubting everyone equally.â
âIâm also very suspicious of you,â Tang Zinian mumbled.
âItâs better to find evidence than to guess.â Yu Muhuai pulled back the topic. âCompared to this, Qingyou should first tell me her guess.â
Song Qingyou nodded.
âWhat I think is that the poison is most likely smeared on one side of the inner wall of the bottle.â
As she spoke, she pulled out an advertisement from the pile of magazines.
The photo on the flyer happened to be the original appearance of the bottle of red wine on the table.
After everyone looked at it, they realized that this wine was not full. Before opening the lid, there was a long âgapâ on the bottle.
âThis possibility is very high.â Yu Muhuai returned the flyer.â The problem is that someone poisoned the bottle in advance. Even if the two students knew which side was poisoned, how could they be sure that the teacher was poisoned?â
âDonât tell me he poisoned every wine tasting class?â Tang Zinian guessed. âThis way, there will always be a time when the teacher will be poisoned.â âWhat grudge do they have with Teacher?â Jiang Xuyanâs mouth twitched.
âNot every time.â Song Qingyou glanced at the time and felt that it was time to let this murder case go.
âYou only need to cast the poison once.â
The others all looked at Song Qingyou, their faces all looking like they were asking for an answer.
âAlthough this teacher was teaching wine tasting, this major is inseparable from chemistry. Anyone who has been exposed to many chemistry experiments will have some habits.â
Song Qingyou said as she reached out to spin the bottle. âFor example, the label on the bottle.â
âUsually, when doing chemistry experiments, you need to place the label on your palm. This is because once you pour a corrosive liquid, the liquid may corrode the label. Therefore, teachers who have done many experiments will habitually place the label on their palm when pouring wine.â
The labels of the wine bottles on the table occupied a large area.
Therefore, when the teacher poured the wine, he would definitely use the only side that was not covered by the label.
Everyone was enlightened.
Jiang Xuyan couldnât help but say, âThey are so smart. Why did they have to poison them? How did the teacher offend them?â
âWe should know when we find the information on those two people.â
Yu Muhuai said, âQingyouâs analysis is very reasonable. However, although poisoning the wine bottle can prove your innocence, you will kill yourself if you are not carefuL.The risk is too great.â
Song Qingyou smiled. âYou donât have to take the risk. Some basic poisons will stick to the inner wall of the glass bottle when they come into contact with water. As long as you calculate the time, they will automatically fall off and dissolve into the wine.â
It was also written in the case statement that the teacher drank more than one or two glasses.
Even if the time estimation was not so accurate, the possibility of him being poisoned to death was almost 100%.
Jiang Xuyanâs entire body went numb. âIs there really such a thing in the workL.Or did you make it up, Qingyou?â
Song Qingyou smiled without saying anything.
This kind of slightly sensitive topic was not suitable to be explained in detail on the show.
However, while they were amazed by the two students âcleverness, they once again felt Song Qingyouâs erudition.
Perhaps the production team had heard the entire process of their discussion and thought that tonightâs recording could almost end, so they picked the right time to broadcast the announcement.
âThe last round of sleep inspection is about to begin!â
âThe last round of sleep inspection is about to begin!â
The notification rang four or five times before it stopped.
Normally, a normal school wouldnât use a loudspeaker to remind them of a dorm check.
But this notice was meant for Song Qingyou and the others.
âThe activity room is a safe spot. Should we go back to the dormitory?â
âTeacher Jiang, do you want to stay up all night to look for information?â Zhao Yingnan was surprised.
â Itâs useless to stay here,â Yu Muhuai advised.â The school might turn off the lights and the dormitory will be locked.â
The few of them discussed for a while and quickly walked out.
âSince Qingyou has deduced the truth, we should be able to get the detailed information of the two students based on this.â Shu Ling continued on the way.
Everyone thought so.
When they reached the entrance of the dormitory building, Zhao Yingnan suddenly stopped.
âRight, the seventh ghost story.â
âOh?â Zhao Yingnan quickly asked when she saw them looking back at her. âHave you forgotten the content of the seventh ghost story?â
Those who appear at the six ghost story locations at night will die.
âSister Yingnan, you want to ask why weâre all fine now?â Tang Zinian asked.
All six ghost stories could be crime scenes.â Xu Xingzhou reminded, âSo the seventh ghost story was probably spread by the murderer.â
âWhy?â Jiang Xuyan didnât react.
âBecause the fewer people there are at the crime scene, the better,â Yu Muhuai explained.
Zhao Yingnan frowned slightly. âBut why did you say that you canât go at night? The crime sceneâ¦Isnât it more afraid of others going during the day?â
Hearing this, the few people who had made speculations fell silent.
âThe night is dark and the wind is high.â Song Qingyou spat out a sentence mysteriously.
Shu Ling was the first to understand.
âQingyou means that those six places are where the murderer kills at night and he doesnât want to be seen?â
âItâs just my guess.â Song Qingyou said.
âEven if itâs just a guess, it makes sense!â After Jiang Xuyan said that, he looked back at the dorm manager who was locking the door.
âThe problem is that we canât stay outside all night. Itâs a pity.â
Shu Ling was speechless. âIf we really have to stay outside and see the set up with our own eyes, the show wonât be able to continue recording.â
âThatâs true.â Jiang Xuyan looked regretful.
âLooks like Brother Jiang didnât get scared out of his mind tonight. He still wants to stay outsideâ¦â Song Qingyou laughed.
Jiang Xuyan was shocked.
âWhy do you mean, ânot scaredâ? I just suddenly forgot⦠Cough, itâs late at night. Itâs better not to go out. Iâm going back to sleep.â
After saying that, he left in a hurry, afraid that Song Qingyou might still have the idea of âexploring the campus at nightâ and drag him along..
