Chapter 397: Chapter 397 - 397: How Much Do You Know?

Translator: Zayn_

The person who was pretending to be asleep opened his eyes and looked around before nodding hesitantly.

“I remember.’’

“That’s good.” Yu Muhuai heaved a sigh of relief. “Can you tell me why you fainted this time?”

“I can…Aren’t you going to tell me?”

The person on the hospital bed looked troubled, and she could not bear to ask again.

“No,” Yu Muhuai was unmoved.

“Don’t forget, you just told me yesterday who the person who bullied you was. If I tell that person…”

“Don’t! 1’11 tell you!”

The facts proved that Yu Muhuai’s deduction was correct.

If he wanted to obtain useful information from Student Sun, threatening him was a necessary method.

Moreover, it was very likely that he would need to talk to the other party on the first day and get something on him.

“I fainted because I was locked up in the laboratory building last night. I didn’t sleep the entire night and only escaped this morning…”

“Who locked you up?” Yu Muhuai lowered his voice.” Song Qingyou?”

” No, it’s not her. It’s someone from the Student Union.”

“When were you locked up last night?”

“Around seven o’clock in the evening…”

“Why were you locked up? Did you see something you shouldn’t have?”

“No, I didn’t. I didn’t do anything…”

“Don’t lie, or else-”

“I’ll talk.” Student Sun closed her eyes. “I usually like to stay alone in the laboratory building because there’s no one else there. However, 1 saw a few people digging a hole last night, but I really don’t know what they were doing.”

“I accidentally stepped on the broom in the corner and made a noise. Then, I hid in the toilet. They didn’t find me, but they locked the laboratory building. I climbed out of the broken window at the back…”

“Only the Student Union members will come out at night, so it must be them!”

This was clearly a murder scene.

“Where were they digging?” Yu Muhuai asked.

“The third tree from the bottom to the right,” replied Student Sun after thinking for a while.

This answer made Yu Muhuai frown.

They had already gone to investigate that tree a few times, but there were no traces of soil being moved at all…

The production team paid so much attention to “useless details” and even specially arranged for an NPC to leak the news. It was impossible that they did not set up the scene well.

Yu Muhuai thought for a long time and suddenly thought of something. “You mean the third tree on the right that you saw in the laboratory building last night?”

Student Sun nodded.” Yes.”

Yu Muhuai instantly understood what he had overlooked.

Every time they counted the third last tree on the right, they would walk to the garden and count from the direction facing the laboratory building.

He had never thought that the so-called right side was actually the right side as seen from the laboratory building.

Yu Muhuai couldn’t wait to verify his new discovery, but he didn’t want to miss this NPC who could reveal a lot of information.

After calming down, he continued to ask, “Why were you afraid when you saw Tang Zinian and the others?”

“I-” The person on the bed subconsciously wanted to retort.

“You’d better tell me the truth.”

“Because Student Zhao hates me. If 1 get too close to her, something bad will happen…”

Zhao Yingnan was the campus belle and had countless fans in school.

Since student Sun was concerned about this, she naturally had to stay away from Tang Zinian and Jiang Xuyan.

“What about Doctor Gu? How much do you know?”

“Doctor Gu is a good person. He always treats my wounds secretly and covers for me. He also keeps encouraging me to resist, but I really can’t do it.”

“What else?”

“Also…” The girl lowered her head and was silent for a while before saying, “I saw Doctor Gu last night too.”

“Where did you see him? What was he doing?”

“He was making a phone call at the flag-raising platform. He didn’t do anything. He didn’t see me. 1 didn’t want to cause trouble for him, so 1 left.”

Student Sun tugged at the blanket. “Don’t ask anymore. That’s all 1 know. You won’t get anything out of me even if you ask.”

“Last night, you-”

Yu Muhuai wanted to ask why she had gone to the laboratory building last night.

However, halfway through his sentence, he heard the sound of the door being pushed open behind him.

Gu Xingchen said with a cold face, “So there are other people inside…Yu Muhuai, what are you doing here? Student Sun needs to rest. Please don’t disturb her.”

“It’s alright.” The girl said, “Student Yu just came to talk to me.”

“I see. It seems like you’re friends with Student Yu.”

Gu Xingchen’s attitude softened a lot, but his tone was still tough.

“But if you guys were to be seen alone in the school doctor’s office, it wouldn’t be a good thing. I remember that Zhao Yingnan seems to like Student Yu very much, so please don’t bring trouble to Student Sun.”

“I understand.”

Yu Muhuai didn’t know if he had heard her, but he left after saying goodbye.

“You should recuperate here. 1 won’t let anyone know that you’re here.”

Gu Xingchen showed some concern for the person on the hospital bed. Then, he returned to the desk separated by the curtain and took out a key and a black cuboid that looked like a keychain from under the desk.

The camera zoomed in and captured the label on the so-called keychain.

Written on it was ‘Recording Device 02’.

Gu Xingchen put on his headphones.

It was obvious that he was listening to the conversation between Yu Muhuai and Student Sun.

He picked up the key that was marked ‘rooftop of Building B’ and wiped it gently with a handkerchief.

On the other side.

Song Qingyou and the others went to the various ghost stories locations to take a look. Seeing that there were no abnormalities, they returned to the club activity room.

“One, two, three…Eh? Is Xiao Yu not here this time?”

Jiang Xuyan counted the people and asked, “Has anyone seen him?”

The six of them shook their heads.

“He can’t still be in the classroom, can he? It feels like this class is specially going easy on us and letting us come out to investigate.”

“Then where did he go?” The few of us seemed to have been circling those six places, but no one saw him…”

“He’s probably with Doctor Gu.” Song Qingyou speculated.

“Are they in the infirmary?” Zhao Yingnan whispered, “But the infirmary isn’t where the ghost stories happened.” n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“The two of them might be in cahoots,” Xu Xingzhou guessed.

Jiang Xuyan heard this and looked up at Song Qingyou, asking with his eyes,

“This is our first clue. Should we make it public now?”

Song Qingyou shook her head and whispered, “One more.”

That’s right, there were three murderers.

If Gu Xingchen and Yu Muhuai were the murderers…

In that case, there was still one more person among the six of them.

“Let’s not bother about them.” Tang Zinian sat down and said, “Let’s talk about what we found just now and then wait for dinner.”

They looked at each other, waiting for the others to speak first.

Jiang Xuyan clicked his tongue. “It seems that it’s better to investigate alone. We don’t trust each other now, and it’s easy to drag us down.”

“There’s still three days. There’s no hurry..”
