Chapter 113 The Second Clue

Downstairs, a military green jeep drove away and then drove out of the school.

He Yuzhou kept staring at the car body. The closed window in front of him separated him from the outside and also concealed his every move very well, so that Zhou Jihuai did not notice that someone upstairs was observing him through the window.

He Yuzhou withdrew his gaze only after the car body disappeared from his sight. However, he did not move his feet and continued to look out the window.

He was born into a judicial family. His ancestors and parents were active in the national judicial system. His father never remarried after his mother died early. He was brought up by his smiling father. Under his father's words and deeds, he always had a smile on his face to pretend, and few people could tell what he was really thinking.

People who don’t know the situation now would think that he is leisurely looking at the scenery outside, but only He Yuzhou himself knows what he feels in his heart.

After a while, he moved towards the stairs. When he reached the back door of the classroom where Wen Zhile was, he stopped by the corner of the door and looked inside.

The little girl's profile, as she listened attentively to the class, illuminated him like a ray of sunshine. Her cheeks seemed especially soft. If he could touch them, they would be as soft as they looked.

He watched Wen Zhile flipping through her notes and listened to her interacting with Shu Ying in class in fluent, standard English.

The girl behaved very confidently and when she spoke she acted more like a teacher than a student.

He Yuzhou adjusted his glasses thoughtfully, and the glasses did their best to block the surging emotions in his eyes.

Only after the figure in the afterglow left did Wen Zhile look outside.

This time she saw clearly that Professor He was looking at her.

Wen Zhile frowned, feeling extremely confused.

Normally, I don't see Professor He being hostile towards me, so that means he is well-intentioned.

What kind of kindness would allow him to peek at me for so long?

Is it true, as Xiaojiu said, that Professor He likes her?

Wen Zhile felt a little disgusted. If this was true, it would be a bit abnormal for him, a 28-year-old adult man, to like a 16-year-old girl.

[Sister, are you thinking He Yuzhou is a pervert? ]

"You're really smart."

Xiao Jiu smiled: [Zhou Jihuai also likes you, why don’t you think he is a pervert? ]

"How can it be the same? Zhou Jihuai fell in love with me after knowing me for a long time. I usually behave like an adult, so it is understandable that he fell in love with me over time. But Professor He and I have only met a few times in total, and the number of words we have said can be counted on one hand. It is hard to understand why he likes me."

[What's so hard to understand about this? He was attracted to you because you are beautiful.]

【Maybe he liked you in his previous life. 】

Wen Zhile shook her head: "We had no intersection in our previous lives."

[You haven't met him, but he may have met you. You both work at Jingzhou University. Although the two departments are far apart, it is inevitable that you have met each other a few times. If he was attracted to you by your beauty, then a few times would be enough for him to like you.]

The little girl lowered her head and looked at her textbook in thought.

[Following this point, the person who killed you in your previous life might be He Yuzhou, and the reason is... he hated you because of his love for you.]

Xiao Jiu thought for seven or eight seconds and then said: [In your previous life, when you died, he was 35 years old and a young man.]

Wen Zhile also thought about it for seven or eight seconds: "Assuming the above conjecture is true, then in the previous life he was at most secretly in love with me, and he never told me anything, so it is unlikely that he would turn love into hate."

In her shallow memory of reading romance novels, those who could turn love into hate were lovers who once loved each other and then broke up, which did not apply to her and He Yuzhou.

【We make bold assumptions and carefully verify them. 】

The little girl nodded and looked at the podium with her chin propped up for a moment.

The range of people who killed her was too broad. In her previous life, she knew and had interactions with too many young men. She couldn't even count all her classmates since she started school. Among them, He Yuzhou didn't even have a name.

In her previous life, she had only heard of him from a colleague who was going on a blind date.

In the eyes of his colleagues, Professor He is a gentle gentleman, talented, handsome, and well-connected. He is good in every way, the only downside is that he is a little old.

"In the past few months, every time I went to my cousin's workplace, I would chat with his colleagues to get information, and from them I came to the conclusion that there are only three reasons why young women are killed: revenge killing, financial killing and love killing."

Wen Zhile slowly sorted out his thoughts: "In my previous life, I was obsessed with studying and didn't like to socialize, so I didn't want to offend anyone. Although I had good food, clothing and daily expenses, there were many girls in my school who were as delicate as me. I wasn't good enough to attract attention with money. I can rule out revenge and money murder."

"A murder of passion... I've never been in debt of love, so the most likely possibility is a crime of passion." Wen Zhile's brows furrowed as he analyzed more.

[Yes, sister, your analysis is correct. I have a new clue. The cause of your death is exactly as you analyzed.]

Wen Zhile pursed her lips when she heard this.

She might not have died a pretty death in her previous life.

"Isn't there only one free clue?"

[Yes, but because you guessed it right, the rules of time and space gave me this clue.]

Wen Zhile raised his eyebrows. Is this okay?

Thanks to her cleverness, she saved two hundred thousand dollars.

"The scope is even wider now." If it is a crime of passion, in addition to acquaintances, it may also be a stranger who is attracted by the woman's beauty.

[Other clues will emerge in the future, which will narrow the scope.]

[Rebirth is not easy to come by. What you need to do is to relax and live a good life. Finding the real murderer is secondary. The most important thing is to ensure your own safety and enjoy every day. 】
