Chapter 172, Ending
Fair review? What kind of review?
Xie Chengzhi is a fool? If it is true as Jiang Yu said, Xie Chengzhi is indeed quite stupid.
But there is a saying that goes, "Those involved are confused while those who are not involved can see clearly." Perhaps, Xie Chengzhi is the person involved, so it is normal that he cannot see clearly.
Jiang Ran frowned and sneered, "You all knew it, but at that time, you said nothing - no one saved me, and no one spoke up for me, haha."
What she said was a confirmation of what Jiang Yu said.
Xie Chengzhi's face turned pale. He turned around with a stiff neck and looked at Jiang Ran. He asked in a low voice: "Are the things Jiang Yu said true?"
The man was eager to verify the facts, his eyes were annoyed and eager, and in the eyes of others, there was something else in his expression.
Everyone focused their attention, and Si Xu took a step forward to block the others' gazes from looking at Jiang Ran.
Some people are just ridiculous.
He has eyes but no brains. After being plotted against by others, he shows this regretful expression to lament his past stupidity.
Haha, Jiang Ranran had died a long time ago. No one cared about his grief-stricken look now except to move himself.
Hiding behind Si Xu, Jiang Ran did not answer Xie Chengzhi's question.
Jiang Ranran died in the icy river last winter. There is no need to answer this question anymore.
"It seems to be true."
Getting the answer from Si Xu and Jiang Ran's reactions, Shen Yang chuckled softly, his lazy eyes falling on Luo Rui.
"Xie Chengzhi, instead of asking Ranran, why not ask the person next to you in person?"
The boy's heart was in turmoil and he was at a loss. He turned to Luo Rui mechanically after hearing the words. His dark eyes were not as clear as usual, but filled with a chaotic light.
Is it true?
Jiang Yu said that Luo Rui deliberately framed Jiang Ranran in order to get him.
His lips moved for a long time, and after a long while he managed to squeeze out the girl's name: "Luo Rui..."
I don’t know what to ask, let alone how to say it.
"Xie Chengzhi, knowing your girlfriend's personality, you still insist she was framed?" Jiang Yu scoffed. "The way she's getting rid of Wei Yage is exactly the same as the way she used to deal with Jiang Ranran."
"You're talking nonsense!" The girl's mask of calmness finally shattered in the man's sarcasm, "Jiang Yu! Don't frame me!"
Her eyes were fierce, and she wished she could pierce the man with thousands of holes with her gaze.
In an instant, she looked at Xie Chengzhi with a sad expression, and choked out, "Chengzhi, listen to me, it's not what Jiang Yu said - have you forgotten, it was me who suggested taking Ranran with me? If I wanted to harm her, I would have just abandoned her. Why would I suggest taking her with me?"
“…” Xie Chengzhi looked at her numbly without saying anything.
"I admit that later on, I did have some bad thoughts about Ranran, but I really didn't want to kill her!" Luo Rui sobbed as tears rolled down her cheeks. "I was just afraid that you would go back and look for her. I was just afraid... but I really didn't want to hurt her."
"Ruirui..." As the girl shed tears, Xie Chengzhi's hard heart softened, "Don't cry..."
"I really didn't mean it." After receiving comfort, Luo Rui kept wiping her tears, and gradually couldn't hold back her sobs anymore, "Chengzhi, please believe me, I really didn't mean to hurt Ranran, really..."
Feeling conflicted, Xie Chengzhi hesitated for a long time, but finally took out a handkerchief to wipe the girl's tears.
Yes, it was Luo Rui who suggested taking Jiang Ranran with her. If she really wanted Jiang Ranran to die, there was no need to take her with her.
Maybe she once had hostility towards Jiang Ranran, but it can't be entirely blamed on her.
It was his fault. As her boyfriend, he made her feel uneasy. It was his fault.
Si Xu coldly watched Xie Chengzhi comfort Luo Rui in a gentle voice, then impatiently interrupted their tender affection: "Aren't you investigating the cause of Wei Yage's death? Are you still investigating? If not, I'm going back."
Do you want to check? Of course!
Everyone came back to their senses at this moment - yes, Wei Yage was dead, and they were gathered here to investigate the cause of Wei Yage's death.
Xie Chengzhi also came back to his senses and remembered his previous proposal: "Master Chen, I..."
"I don't accept his proposal." Before Xie Chengzhi could bring up the past, Si Xu said coldly, "Shen Yang, this guy..." He glanced at Jiang Yu, "He accused your Shen family of colluding with Luo Rui to frame Wei Yage. I think, in order to clear Shuai Shen's name, I'll leave this matter to you to investigate."
Give it to Shen Yang?
Isn't Professor Si at odds with the Shen family? Why would he hand this matter over to Captain Shen? Besides, Luo Rui is Commander Shen's ally, right? If he handed it over to Captain Shen for investigation, wouldn't he be afraid that Captain Shen would release her?
Everyone was confused, except Jiang Ran, who was hiding behind the young man, with his cheek against his back, laughing secretly: This guy... is really too bad.
This matter was handed over to Shen Yang for investigation. No matter what the final result was, the Shen family could not be cleared from the suspicion of murdering Wei Yage.
If the final murderer is confirmed to be Luo Rui, everyone will say that the Shen family pushed Luo Rui out to take the blame. If it's not Luo Rui, everyone will say that the Shen family found a scapegoat for Luo Rui - if no one says it, she can find someone to say it for everyone.
When everyone says this, what will the players on Team Six think?
Jiang Ran knew Si Xu's intentions, and Shen Yang naturally knew them too.
However, the young man just smiled and without waiting for Shen Lang to speak, he gladly accepted the task: "Since Professor Si trusts me so much, I will not refuse."
After saying that, Shen Yang casually glanced at Luo Rui, who had tears in her eyes, and ordered Zhong Qian: "Take the two of them to the dungeon and keep them under strict supervision."
Zhong Qian accepted the order: "Yes."
Someone came and dragged Jiang Yu and Luo Rui away.
When being dragged away by the psychic, Jiang Yu was still cursing Luo Rui madly.
"Chengzhi!" The road ahead was uncertain. Luo Rui panicked and tightly grasped Xie Chengzhi's hand. "Chengzhi, please save me. What happened tonight was really not my intention! Chengzhi..."
Waving his hand to block the psychic who was holding Luo Rui, Xie Chengzhi said in a deep voice: "Master Shen, I will send Luo Rui to the dungeon."
After the boy finished speaking, he put his arm around his girlfriend and strode out.
Shen Yang's eyes were filled with more sarcasm, and he raised his chin: "Why don't you follow him? If he runs away, will you be responsible?"
"Yes, yes!" The two psychics who were escorting Luo Rui immediately chased after her and followed behind Luo Rui.
"Xie Chengzhi."
In the crowd, a girl blocked the two men's way.
Ignoring the shocked looks of the two, the girl looked at Xie Chengzhi and said slowly, "When Jiang Ranran fell into the water and was rescued, she always thought it was you who saved her - at least at that time, she still had some hope in you as her boyfriend - but unfortunately, you didn't save her."
The girl lowered her voice, just loud enough for Xie Chengzhi to hear clearly.
"You didn't save her. Your former girlfriend, Jiang Ranran, will forever remain in that cold lake. When you go to hell, remember to apologize to her for your past blindness."
The girl said, then stepped aside.
After being urged by the psychic behind him, Xie Chengzhi took Luo Rui away, but his steps were not as firm as before.
What did Yi Xi mean by this? Was he saying that Jiang Ranran drowned when she fell into the water?
So who is that girl who is jumping around now?
Speaking of which, it was after that drowning incident that Jiang Ranran's personality changed drastically. She stopped pestering him and instead became closer and closer to Si Xu...
Could it be that... the real Jiang Ranran is really dead?
