Chapter 49 - 49: Tragic Deaths

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

After Shen Chun was brought to the interrogation room alone, Ling Han and a female police officer were in charge of questioning her.

“Miss Shen, there was a malicious murder case in the north of the city yesterday. A total of ten people died and two were seriously injured. After an investigation, we discovered that the victims were your classmates. May 1 ask if you noticed any abnormalities in their behavior or if they had a conflict with anyone?”

Shen Chun was stunned and asked in disbelief, “A total of ten people died?”

That shouldn’t be the case. Yesterday, she read the physiognomy of her classmates. Although they wouldn’t be that rich, they could at least live peaceful lives. How could they die out of the blue?

“That’s right.” Ling Han’s tone was solemn.

“Then who survived?” Shen Chun asked.

“Han Chen, Su Yao.”

Shen Chun frowned. Although Su Yao was arrogant and willful, from her prophecy, she wouldn’t encounter any danger recently.

But why was she suddenly seriously injured?

After Ling Han gave Shen Chun some time to process it, he repeated the question. “Miss Shen, I understand your grief after hearing that your classmates died, but all you can do now is try your best to cooperate with the police and tell us everything you know.”

Shen Chun nodded. “1 took a month off before and only returned to school yesterday. 1 didn’t interact much with my classmates, so 1 don’t know much about them. As for the conflict…” After a pause, she continued, “1 had an argument with them yesterday.”

Ling Han’s gaze turned sharp. “What was the reason for the argument?”

“They insulted me and my parents.”

Ling Han continued to ask, “Then where were you last night?”

“Yawang Villa. I’ve been there ever since 1 left school yesterday.”

There were surveillance cameras near the villa, so it was very easy for Shen Chun to prove her innocence. Ling Han asked her some other questions and only released her from the interrogation room an hour later.

After Shen Chun walked out of the police station, she saw a few students who had not left yet.

Seeing her come out, they immediately walked forward.

“Shen Chun, what did that policeman ask you?”

Shen Chun replied, “He was just asking if Su Yao and the others had been acting abnormally recently.”

“Then did you tell him?” the students asked curiously.

“No.” Shen Chun shook her head. She wasn’t familiar with those people.

“Come closer.” One of them said secretively, “1 heard that a group of them went to the north of the city to play soul summoning yesterday. When the police found them this morning, they realized that someone had drawn an array in the house and they lay dead on that array. Only Su Yao and Han Chen survived.”

“Array?” Shen Chun sensed that something was wrong. “What array?”

“I’m not sure either. Keep your voice down. We haven’t left the police station yet.” She gestured at Shen Chun and continued, “Besides, I heard that Han Chen and Su Yao weren’t seriously injured at all. They were so traumatized that they’ve gone bat crazy.”

“Did they really attract ghosts?” A girl beside her trembled in fear and looked around warily. It was clearly broad daylight, but she felt that everything seemed so sinister.

“How can there be ghosts in the world? 1 think someone is trying to disguise this scheme as an unnatural phenomenon.”

As the two of them bickered, Shen Chun’s expression darkened. She didn’t want to interfere in this matter, but she owed Su Yao a favor.

Shen Chun sighed and called the Fu family’s driver to pick her up.

She didn’t expect Fu Shi to send Luo Yong to pick her up. When the black Aston stopped at the entrance of the police station, a few students were shocked.

After bidding farewell to them politely, Shen Chun sat in the car and instructed Luo Yong to go to the hospital.

After the exhaust of the car dissipated, they finally came back to their senses.

“What’s going on? Isn’t Shen Chun’s family already bankrupt?!”

“A starving camel is still bigger than a horse. It’s better not to provoke her in the future.”

Shen Chun was unaware of the discussion outside. She was using her phone to search for information about the murder in the north of the city. Ten A University students had died in a row and the manner of their deaths was too sensational, so there was already a lot of discussions online.

Shen Chun searched for a long time before she found a few photos of the event location. As they were secretly taken, the photos were not complete, and they were very blurry. She scrutinized them for a long time, but she couldn’t tell what array it was.

Luo Yong, who was in the driver’s seat, asked, “Madam, why are you going to the hospital?”

“To investigate the murder case in the north of the city. 1 owe Su Yao a favor, so I have to intervene..”
