I don't know what he's talking about.

But I'm not an idiot. I feel like he's trying to trick me.

"Officer, I don't know what you're talking about." I answered truthfully.

"Hmph, still pretending to be stupid, I already asked your classmate, last night in the dorm playing tricks, this morning Yang Wenzhao was found dead in the library, you said this has nothing to do with you?" Brat, you're too inexperienced. Acting stupid in front of me won't work. Take him to the scene, control him, and don't let him destroy the clues. " The Boss said coldly.

As soon as he finished speaking, two policemen led me to the library, one on each side, the Chief on my left, his eyes fixed on me as if to observe my reaction.

Their attitude made me feel wronged. I was the victim.

And he just mentioned that Yang Wenchao died in the library.

Yang Wenchao is dormitory number four, the person who had a sleeper meeting with me last night is very likely him, but I can't be sure.

I could see that quite a few policemen were busy in the library. Just as I was about to enter, the police officer beside me took out a shoe cover and put it on me. I obediently cooperated with my work while simultaneously observing the situation in the library.

More than ten meters in front of him on the right was a dense crowd of people. It seemed to be the location of the crime.

I was still thinking about Ol 'Four's death, and what was going on? Last night, Ol' Four and the rest went to work all night, but I met Ol 'Four again in the dorm, and there was another Ol' Four knocking at the door, and there was even another guy in the dorm with a hoarse voice. Ol 'Four was found dead in the library again, while Ol' Four's phone was turned off …

One first and two big.

Under the pressure of the police officers beside me, I was pushed in the direction of the crowd.

"All of you move aside first. Let this brat take a look at the scene." The Boss's tone was cold.

The busy police immediately scattered. The exposed scene made me feel extremely terrified.

Fourth Bro Yang Wenchao, who was wearing a blue shirt, was lying on the ground. Beside him was a overturned water dispenser.

Four's eyes were wide open, bloodshot and lifeless. His face was frighteningly white, and his skin was swollen. The bucket above the water dispenser had a hole in it, and less than half of the bucket was filled with water.

A police officer handed over a few photos and said at the same time, "This is the photo taken when the victim was found. Kid, take a good look."

Taking the photo, I saw an even more incredible scene.

In the photo, number four Yang Wenchao was lying on his stomach on the water dispenser. His head was inserted into the bucket above the water dispenser, just right into the broken bucket. His face was soaked in the remaining half bucket of water, his face was badly swollen, his eyes were wide open, and his lips were dark green.

Even more frightening to me than the death of Ol 'Four was his appearance. From the photos, it seemed like he had been suffocated to death by putting his head in the water dispenser's bucket …

Fourth, the water dispenser...

How could this be?

The Boss opened his mouth: "After investigation, the time of Yang Wenchao's death was approximately 4 am, which is more than 2 hours ago. At that time, he was the only one in the library, and your school's library opened 24 hours ago. The morning students found the dead body and immediately called the police, and informed the school that the school had arrived at the scene to protect the dead body."

"Yang Wenchao drowned while drowning, so it seems like he was drowned to death by this half bucket of water. Shu Jing, I'm very curious, why did you use such a method?" I asked your classmates, and they all said that you played tricks in the dorm last night, saying that Yang Wenchao told you the ghost story about the water dispenser in the dorm. Now that Yang Wenchao died in the water dispenser, you are the most suspicious. But logically speaking, you could have just kept quiet and killed him without drawing attention to yourself. Why did you have to cause such a commotion just to create an alibi? "No, it's very unreasonable, because at four o'clock, the students in the dormitory next door are all asleep, they can't provide you with an alibi at all."

"Also, where are Li Fengyun and Xie Cong? Where did you hide them? You used such a shocking method to kill Yang Wenchao, how are you going to deal with Li Fengyun and Xie Cong? Or did something happen to the two of them and they haven't been discovered yet? "

"Speak honestly, don't play dumb with me, what special meaning does the water dispenser have for you and Yang Wenzhao?"

The leader shot out his words in succession, leaving me feeling extremely confused and confused.

From his meaning, it was clear that he suspected me of being Yang Wenchao's murderer.

I didn't do anything. I did what I had to do, and even if I didn't say anything, they wouldn't be able to convict me.

The leader had no proof. He was using psychological tactics to see what flaws his words would reveal to me.

The problem is, Yang Wenzhao's death has nothing to do with me, I don't have any flaws.

What made me even more confused was that Fourth Bro Yang Wenchao's method of dying was truly too strange.

Listening to the police, Yang Wenchao died at around 4 in the morning. The cause of death was drowning and choking. The preliminary result showed that he was drowned by this bucket of water.

Why would he die here, in this way?

Who was the murderer of Yang Wenchao?

His brain was working fast, carefully thinking about everything that had happened since last night.

If the person who told the story last night was really the fourth oldest, Yang Wenchao, then it was very likely that the horror story about the water dispenser he told had some special meaning, like, hints.

That was because Ol 'Four hadn't died yet. Before the story of the water dispenser could be told, he suddenly disappeared from the dorm and lost contact with the phone. When he was found out again, he had drowned in half a bucket of water from the water dispenser.

What's the point of a water dispenser?

Did Fourth Bro know that something was going to happen to him? Before he died, he told me a story about a water dispenser, but before he could finish his story, he was interrupted by someone hiding in his dorm room. Afterwards, there was a knock on the door, and another person who looked like Fourth Bro knocked on the door, making the situation even more chaotic.

After escaping, he was ultimately unable to escape from the death of the Demon Claw, and was drowned by the killer in such a cruel way in the half bucket of water from the water dispenser.

Of course, the premise of these deductions was that the person on the top bunk last night really was number four, Yang Wenchao.

I couldn't be sure of my theory because there was no evidence.

From another point of view, if the one telling the story in the dorm was not Fourth Bro, then things would become even more complicated. Was it Fourth Bro who knocked on the door? Who was that strange, husky voice? Where did Eldest Brother and Second Brother go? Why did they turn off their phones? Has something happened?

No matter how he thought about it, he was still confused.

What if the murderer wasn't human?

Was there really a ghost? Invisible ghosts drown Ol'fourth in the library, or turn him into Ol Fourth and give me a sleeper in the dorm...

Chaos, this was chaos.

In the face of the police's questions, I said nothing. I didn't want to argue, and I didn't know how.

There should be my fingerprints on this water dispenser.

Yesterday afternoon I was in the library, reading a book and using a water dispenser, and I didn't pay much attention to the fingerprints I naturally left behind.

But after all, the library's water dispenser was public property, and I wasn't the only one who left fingerprints. With those fingerprints, there was no way I could be convicted.

I don't have a motive, and I don't have any evidence that I'm the killer.

What I want to figure out is, where did my second brother go? Was my fourth brother killed by a human or a ghost?

Seeing that I didn't say anything, the Boss continued, "Shu Jing, keeping silent doesn't cover up your crimes."

I nodded and finally said, "Officer, do you believe me when I say that Fourth Bro's death has nothing to do with me?"

The Boss slightly curled his lips and said, "I still haven't come to a conclusion. I'm only suspecting that because you are the most suspicious one, according to our understanding, your performance last night was too abnormal, Yang Wenchao's death pattern is special, I'm very curious as to what special significance the water dispenser has in this case."

"Officer, I don't know anything. Last night in the dorm, my second brother went out all night while my fourth brother and I stayed in the dorm, unable to sleep at night. He told me a story, telling me some horrible things that happened during the summer vacation.

The Boss nodded. "Okay, repeat it."

Once again, to recount the events of the previous night, the entire house of police officers did not look satisfied, including their leader.

Perhaps the officers in uniform didn't believe in the whims and confusion, and they thought my story was completely untenable.

After I finished speaking, the Boss asked again, "Shu Jing, if what you said is true, then it's very likely that there were three Yang Wenzhao who appeared last night. One of them was Yang Wenzhao who went all night with Li Fengyun and Xie Cong, and that is your classmate who saw you. The other one is Yang Wenzhao who was chatting with you on the top bunk, and the other one is Yang Wenzhao who knocked on the door.

I thought for a moment and replied, "I don't know how many Yang Wenzhao are there, but I've already told you everything I know."

Chief: Well, for the time being, I believe you. In that case, you are implying that Yang Wenchao, who told you a story last night, already knows a few things. That's why he told you that ghost story about the water dispenser? But then something else happened. He had to take advantage of the moment when you were about to open the door to jump over the wall on the balcony of the dorm. But in the end, he couldn't escape.

I didn't say anything, just threw up my hands to indicate that I didn't mean to imply that his conclusion was his own.

The Boss whispered to the other older officers for a while before he asked them to take me to the empty office.

I fell into a deeper doubt. The death of Fourth Bro was too bizarre. If there weren't any supernatural motives, then this would be a well-planned murder.

Fourth Bro couldn't be considered a low-key person, but he was usually generous and had good relationships with people. He hadn't offended anyone even after entering the academy for three years.

His parents were businessmen and of good family. Every now and then, they would invite their classmates for a meal.

Now that Eldest Brother Li Fengyun and Second Brother Xie Cong were both missing, could the culprit be one of them?

Eldest brother Li Fengyun, he was just like his name suggested. He was a famous man with an unyielding temper. If he disagreed, he would start to fight, and his muscles would become even fiercer.

The second brother, Xie Cong, was more honest. His family background was similar to mine and he was an ordinary mortal. His results were average and his popularity was average. He was an ordinary student.

With Li Fengyun's physique, killing off Ol 'Four was as easy as pie, but their relationship was pretty good. Due to Ol' Four's generosity and Li Fengyun's straightforwardness, the two of them were like a golden partner.

Xie Cong, if he didn't play the pig to eat the tiger, then he definitely wouldn't have the guts to kill Fourth Bro. He also doesn't have the skills like Li Fengyun.

Who else?
