"I'll go with the police first and tell you later."
After saying that, she followed Jiang Yan and the others and walked to the artificial lake. Jingyi stood by and guided them to find her body.
Jiang Yan felt a little bit terrified. It was so weird to have a ghost guiding others to find his own body.
Zhou Ziheng had someone drain the artificial lake some time ago, so the body was much easier to find. After finding the exact location, he arranged for people to dig it up.
Wen Wan stood by and looked around carefully, but there was no sign of Tao Hua.
Wen Wan cleared her throat and then shouted, "Tao Hua! Tao Hua! I've seen you."
"I'll give you ten seconds to show up in front of me, or you'll face the consequences! I'll kill you!"
After threatening him for a few sentences, Tao Hua's spirit was seen floating out from behind the tree.
"What are you going to do this time? All the water has been drained from my side. I have no hope of reincarnation. Aren't you still angry?"
Tao Hua squatted in front of Wen Wan, holding his head in his hands, fearing that he would be beaten. He thought that Wen Wan wanted to take revenge on him for what happened last time.
"Nothing special. I just brought an old friend to chat with you." She looked at Tao Hua and smiled.
Then, his tone suddenly changed, and he said gloomily, "There are many things we didn't discuss last time we met. Let's get it all out today."
Then Jingyi was asked to come out of the soul-gathering bell. She was filled with hatred, and Tao Hua looked eerie.
"Do you—remember me?"
Tao Hua's face changed instantly with fear, and he asked haltingly, "You...you remember everything?"
"If she hadn't remembered, why would I come here to look for you? Did you think that the good things you and Zhao Cheng did would go unnoticed if others forgot about them?"
Wen Wan squinted her eyes and looked at him, with a look that was difficult to understand.
When Tao Hua heard this, he knew that the truth had been revealed. He knelt down decisively and kowtowed to them frantically, "I'm sorry, I was wrong! I was really wrong!"
After hearing this, Wen Wan sneered, "Do you know you're wrong?"
Without waiting for his answer, she continued in a cold voice: "When you left for money, do you know how desperate she was?"
"Why! Why didn't you save her? Why did you pretend not to know? Why did you just stand aside when it had nothing to do with you?"
"Several years have passed, and you've been trapped here, unable to reincarnate. Do you ever feel any regret?"
Tao Hua shed two tears of regret, "I really know I was wrong! I regret my decision all the time."
"Yes! I initially thought it would be better to avoid trouble, so when Zhao Cheng tempted me with money, I left."
She continued, "How did you die?"
Tao Hua answered truthfully: "After I left, I heard that she had withdrawn from the competition, but I didn't take it seriously."
"It wasn't until later, when her family came to complain twice, saying she was missing, that I realized she hadn't returned home at all."
"It occurred to me that she might have been murdered by Zhao Cheng. The more I thought about it, the more regretful I felt. My conscience torments me every day."
"So I asked Zhao Cheng to come over here. I persuaded him to surrender, and he agreed on the surface. But then he suddenly attacked me, drowned me in the lake, and buried me on the spot. That's why I've been trapped here ever since."
He looked at Wen Wan's terrifying eyes and swallowed, "I really regret it, I really know I was wrong!"
"I really didn't expect that anyone would die!"
Wen Wan looked at him, snorted coldly, casually took out the talisman she had prepared, and hit him directly, saying angrily, "You regret it!"
She directly exposed him and said, "You don't regret your original choice at all. You don't regret not stopping Zhao Cheng. You regret that not stopping Zhao Cheng led to your own death!"
"What do you mean you didn't expect someone to die?"
"You think it's okay for a girl to be violated like this? As long as no one dies, it's okay, right?"
Tao Hua was knocked to the ground by the talisman all of a sudden. He felt like his whole body was about to break apart, and he rolled around wildly on the ground trying to relieve the pain.
He yelled, "I was wrong! I really know I was wrong! Please let me go!"
Wen Wan had no intention of letting him go, because in this matter, no bystander was innocent!
Zhou Ziheng had never seen Wen Wansheng so angry before. He gently tugged at her sleeve, signaling her to calm down.
Jingyi, who was standing next to him, looked at Tao Hua in pain, but for some reason, she didn't feel any pleasure in her heart.
Finally, she took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and spoke out to stop Wen Wan, "Forget it, it's all over."
"In the end, we can only blame Zhao Cheng."
Wen Wan then withdrew the power of the talisman. If Jingyi hadn't stopped her, she would have really beaten Tao Hua to death.
Tao Hua lay on the ground, saying with deep regret: "I really know I was wrong."
"Stop talking nonsense. Where is your body buried?"
Tao Hua quickly told her the location of his body, and then Wen Wan told it to Jiang Yan.
Soon the two bodies were dug out. It was really ridiculous that after a few years, the two bodies had turned into bones, while the murderer was still alive and well.
Jiang Yan decisively withdrew the team and went back to interrogate Zhao Cheng.
Wen Wan and Zhou Ziheng also planned to go back and rest. There were too many things to do today and she was really tired.
She subconsciously imitated Zhou Ziheng, rubbed her temples, and couldn't help sighing that even a dead person would be so angry that he would come back to life after hearing this news.
Unexpectedly, after seeing this, Zhou Ziheng stood directly behind her, stretched out his hands, and gently rubbed her temples.
"Headache?"
"Don't worry, the truth will not be tarnished."
Wen Wan closed her eyes, savored it for a moment, and then murmured, "Thank you, Teacher Zhou."
After hearing her words, Zhou Ziheng smiled and said, "I said, I will be there when you need me."
"Besides, Jingyi is not just your friend, she's also my friend."
"It's my duty to help my friends, so you don't have to thank me."
Wenwan's little face was wrinkled, with the corners of her mouth turned down, and she looked unhappy.
"I know the truth will come out, but I just feel bad."
Tears welled up in her eyes as she spoke, but she tried not to cry and said, "It's too late. Everything is too late."
"Even if Zhao Cheng receives the punishment he deserves, Jingyi's life will never be redeemed. Her life will forever remain at the age of eighteen."
"Her dream had not yet been realized. She came to the show with her dream in her heart, but it became her own grave."
After she finished speaking, she finally couldn't hold back her tears. "I'm sorry, I don't want to cry. I'm just too sad."
Zhou Ziheng gently wiped away her tears and said softly, "I know you're feeling very uncomfortable and you can't express it."
"You're always holding your breath, aren't you?"
Wen Wan nodded. It was exactly as Zhou Ziheng had said. Even if she could kill Zhao Cheng on the spot, she would still feel aggrieved.
