It was late at night, and the school dormitory doors were already closed, so Lu Qing had no choice but to go home with Gu Xicheng.
Fortunately, Gu Xicheng wasn't so beastly as to engage in dual cultivation after a long day of running around, but Lu Qing had something on her mind and couldn't fall asleep.
As she rolled over for the third time, Gu Xicheng grabbed her from behind.
"Still thinking about evil cultivation!"
Gu Xicheng's muffled voice reached Lu Qing's ears, and Lu Qing sighed:
"I don't know why, but I feel a bit irritated by this whole thing."
"Alright, let's not think about it anymore. We'll catch him eventually!"
Gu Xicheng gently patted Lu Qing's back to soothe her agitated emotions.
Lu Qing closed her eyes, took a deep breath and exhaled, and recited the Heart-Cleansing Mantra several times before finally falling asleep peacefully.
The next morning, Lu Qing, who was half asleep, was woken up by Gu Xicheng.
No matter how late I went to bed last night, I still have to get up at 8 a.m. today for my class.
"Get up quickly, or you'll be late!"
Gu Xicheng carried Lu Qing out of the bed.
Lu Qing clung to him like an octopus. In her drowsy state, she seemed to hear a message notification on her phone, so she asked Gu Xicheng to see who it was.
Gu Xicheng held Lu Qing in one arm and took the phone with the other.
Upon opening it, I saw a message from the class group chat.
[Notice: Due to a sudden illness this morning, Mr. Wang, who teaches Advanced Mathematics, is currently being rushed to the hospital for treatment. Both Advanced Mathematics classes this morning have been cancelled and will be rescheduled by the Academic Affairs Office.]
Although he sympathized with Teacher Wang, Gu Xicheng couldn't help but laugh.
Then he carried Lu Qing back to the soft, fragrant bed.
"If I remember correctly, both of my classes this morning are advanced mathematics. The teacher is sick, so you can sleep a little longer."
"Really???" Lu Qing opened one eye halfway and glanced at the message.
Then, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn up in a smile.
I'm so sorry, Teacher Wang! I'll definitely visit you in the hospital when I wake up!
Thinking this, Lu Qing closed her eyes with a clear conscience and fell asleep again.
Lu slept from 6:30 to past 10:00. When he woke up, he felt refreshed and in excellent spirits.
Gu Xicheng woke up before her and had already prepared lunch.
There were still nearly four hours before afternoon classes, enough time for Lu Qing to leisurely wash up, eat, and then return to school.
"I have to go back to the company for a meeting this afternoon. I'll come to the school to find you after that and help you investigate Feng Shu's matter," Gu Xicheng said.
Lu Qing nodded with a smile.
After finishing his meal, Gu Xicheng took Lu Qing back to school and then went to the company.
When Lu Qing arrived at the dormitory, the other four were already there.
They were a little worried when Lu Qing was taken away by the police yesterday. Fortunately, Lu Qing let them know she was safe and sound later, otherwise they would definitely have gone to the police station to look for her.
"Qingqing, how are you? Who was that person who died? How did they get involved with you?"
Lu Qing briefly explained the situation.
Having been through a lot with Lu Qing, this kind of serial murder case can only have a slight impact on them.
Their focus was more on the dramatic relationship between Jian Zeming and Feng Shu.
Cheng Yiyi: "Because I wanted a boy, I abandoned my own daughter and switched her with a boy."
Leng Wei: "This boy later got together with this girl."
Yang Xiwen: "They weren't truly in love; they were just using each other."
Gu Fei: "So here's the question: are they considered siblings?"
Leng Wei: "I don't think so! At most, it's pseudo-incest!"
Upon hearing this word, everyone looked at Leng Wei and exclaimed, "Truly a scholar!"
"So how do we investigate now?" Everyone looked at Lu Qing.
Lu Qing glanced at the excited look in their eyes and slowly said:
"Let's start class!"
The light in everyone's eyes went out instantly.
Lu Qing also wanted to find out the case as soon as possible, but she couldn't let it interfere with her classes, otherwise her tuition would be wasted.
"I have a feeling that this case won't be solved in a short time."
"It's Friday today. I only have one class this afternoon. I'll check after that."
Everyone could only nod in agreement.
They couldn't possibly skip class just to conduct an investigation; that would be putting the cart before the horse.
Fortunately, class ended at 3:40. After returning to the dormitory, Lu Qing assigned the tasks.
Feng Shu's daily activities mainly take place in two places: the school and the house she rents off-campus.
Jian Yunxing could appear anywhere she has ever been, so finding her is not easy.
However, having the bracelet as a clue doesn't mean we're completely without any leads.
Feng Shu wouldn't bring up her liking for bracelets for no reason; she must have mentioned it to someone else.
Their main task on this trip was to find the people who had talked to Feng Shu about the bracelet and locate the places where they had mentioned it, so that they could narrow down the search and even find the suspects in one fell swoop.
At school, Feng Shu mainly interacted with teachers, roommates, members of the Youth Association, and boys she had ambiguous relationships with.
Gu Fei and Ruan Yinchen will ask the teacher; Gu Fei's status as the eldest daughter of the Gu family can provide many conveniences.
Cheng Yiyi and Yang Xiwen were assigned to be Feng Shu's roommates.
Leng Wei and Tang Yu are in charge of the members of the Youth Association.
The boys who had ambiguous relationships with Feng Shu were not only in school, but also outside of school. Lu Qing had identification, making it easier to ask them questions, so she and Gu Xicheng were in charge of these people.
"No matter what you find out, post it in the group immediately. Do not act on your own."
"Also, keep all the talismans safe; they could save your life in a critical moment."
Lu Qing solemnly instructed everyone.
Although it's broad daylight and in a school, evil practitioners shouldn't be so blatant, but accidents can't be ruled out.
Lu Qing left each of them a more powerful talisman to protect their safety.
Soon, everyone dispersed to carry out their tasks.
Lu Qing arrived at the school gate, and Gu Xicheng arrived shortly after.
While waiting, Lu Qing had already obtained the information of the boys with whom Feng Shu had ambiguous relationships from the criminal investigation team's phone contacts.
These people include young students as well as elites from society.
Feng Shu's relationships with them were complicated. Some were only in the stage of verbal ambiguity, some involved receiving gifts, and some involved maintaining contact even after breaking up.
Simply put, Feng Shu's attitude towards relationships is both clear and unclear.
She can have ambiguous verbal relationships with many men at the same time, accept their gifts, and even some subtle physical touches, enjoying the thrill of that momentary hormonal surge. But at any given time, she can only have a physical relationship with one person, and only that one person can she truly establish a relationship with.
At this stage, it is Jian Zeming.
Jian Zeming was her next boyfriend almost immediately after breaking up with her previous boyfriend.
One second she broke up with her ex-boyfriend, and the next second she texted Jian Zeming, accepting his advances.
After reviewing the documents, Lu Qing couldn't help but exclaim: "They really have principles!"
She can be a jerk, but she'll never cheat. Feng Shu is quite unique!
After looking around, Lu Qing decided to start investigating Feng Shu's previous boyfriend.
