Chapter 289: A Tragic Murder

Chapter 289

Lan Tianyou picked up the key with a completely bewildered look on his face, appearing as innocent as if he had just arrived in this world.

Guan Liangzhe excitedly jumped up: "Wow! Amazing little brother Lan!"

Ge Dongxuan instantly became a fan: "I've never seen anyone with such good luck!"

Sha Ling: "It shocks me for three thousand years."

Gu Beihuai took the key and inserted it into the keyhole to turn it.

KaCha!

The big lock on the door opened.

The four useless youths cheered on the spot, hugging each other while hopping up and down, shaking the attic floorboards with creaking sounds.

Still shocked from the fright, the four were currently in a weakened mental state. Hearing this sound scared them again, and they instantly dared not move.

Nan Xiangwan didn't even bother looking at them, she raised her foot and walked into the room.

The small room was oppressively dark. The bed didn't even have a mattress on it, just a tattered cloth laying on top acting as a sheet.

There were no beddings underneath the bed frame, only test papers and other study materials scattered around.

Probably because space was so limited, the two children could only use one bed as a desk while squeezing together to sleep on the other.

Gu Beihuai picked up a pen with a cracked shaft that was still in use.

Sha Ling: "The conditions here are too harsh!"

Ge Dongxuan: "There's not even a mattress? Just one tattered blanket?"

Guan Liangzhe could only shake his head helplessly.

Lan Tianyou rummaged through the scrolls on the bed and soon found a very worn notebook. As soon as he opened it, there were shocking words.

Lan Tianyou: "Let me read it to you!"

"March 20: It rained today. So cold, but my brother and I have no clothes to wear."

"March 29: My classmates ridiculed us for being monsters again today. My brother's illness has worsened. Why do they scold us?"

"March 30: My brother's and my names were crossed out. They said we don't deserve to have names. Why do they scold us every day?"

"April 1: April Fool's day. My brother and I were tricked and forced to jump down from the building..."

"April 3: A transfer student joined today with student ID #44. I'm finally not the last student ID number!"

"April 5: The transfer student scolded me and brother today. He said he just wanted to fit in since the whole class discriminates against us. He didn't want to be different from the others."

"April 10: The class president said the whole class would be very happy if my brother and I died."

"... "

"May 2: Why do this to me! Why don't they go die instead? Why don't they go die!"

"May 30: Brother, I miss Mom."

"June 1: It's Children's Day today. Will I get to see Mom? Mom, if you can hear me, can you fulfill my wish? I want my classmates to become like me and brother, so they will stop ridiculing us."

After reading the diary, Lan Tianyou's brows furrowed tightly.

Guan Liangzhe: "This is the course of a descent into darkness!"

"My children, Mom has come."

"Don't be afraid, Mom will protect you."

"They will all die! Every single one of them will die!"

"My children, rest assured, they will join you soon, then..."

Lan Tianyou: "It's solved! The soul in the spirit is the twins' mom!"

Ge Dongxuan: "I'm scared to death, goosebumps all over!"

Nan Xiangwan: "I want to meet the spirit."

Sha Ling: "!!!"

Guan Liangzhe: "Nan Xiangwan, you're truly frightening."

The livestream audience also followed along to solve the mystery, fully embracing their amateur detective roles.

Comments:

- The mother died accidentally. The twins were trafficked to the principal who exploited them for profit!

- After the mother found out, she became a vengeful spirit possessing the pen and became the spirit.

- That's why the spirit helped the twins. The twins kept asking to play with the spirit.

- The spirit killed everyone, with their necks twisted 180 degrees before death, just like the twins' condition.

- The spirit is the mom! She fulfilled the twins' wish. Such a tragic story, I don't even know what to say.

- Eradicate campus violence! Really!

...

Gu Beihuai: "The case has been solved. Where's the exit?"

Last episode, the exit presented itself automatically after solving the entire mystery.

The group waited around for a bit but there was no reaction at all or any prompts from the production team.

Gu Beihuai: "Alright, we'll look for the exit ourselves."

Lan Tianyou: "Exhausted to death. We've been filming for hours?"

Still sitting on the bed, he leaned back against the wall behind him.

And with that lean!

Crack!

He cracked the wall open!

Lan Tianyou was so startled he leapt up: "Ahhh help mommy, almost fell over!"

Nan Xiangwan's eyes lit up. She pushed against the wall.

Crack!

The wall crumbled outwards to reveal a large hole.

They saw the sky outside, the morning light spilling in beautifully.
