"I was the first to discover the underground secret room of the Flower Arranging Society. The missing body parts of Zhang Zhisen and Wang Qi were found in it, which proves that the murderer's behavior of killing and dismembering the bodies was premeditated. But the other four murders were different. Except for the first student, none of the students who were killed had organs missing."
"So at that time I speculated that there might not be just one murderer. Then I followed this speculation and followed the department's thinking to investigate the interpersonal relationships of the four people. There were five most suspicious candidates, and one of them was you, Teacher Chi."
After some slight embellishment, Levi recounted the entire process of his investigation.
"When I returned home and saw you waiting for me here, even though I didn't have any more evidence, I could basically confirm that you were the murderer!"
Hearing this, Chi Qing laughed again, and he did not avoid Levi's gaze.
"You see, you are very smart in these matters, much smarter than most people. But before you said these words, did you ever think about whether my next target might be you?"
Levi was not frightened by his words.
"Teacher, didn't you just tell me the purpose of your trip? You came to discuss cooperation with me."
"You're willing to cooperate with a murderer? Doesn't this go against what you stand for?"
Levi took out a data disk.
"Your information is all here, teacher. If you can't give me a reasonable reason for you to commit such a crime, then I will hand it over to the school board tomorrow anyway. No matter how badly you put them, they will never forgive you for the crimes you committed in the academy, right?"
"Why should I ask them to forgive me? Did they kill less people than me?"
Chi Qing never avoided Li Wei's gaze from beginning to end.
"You said I committed a crime. What about the school board that asked you to enforce the school rules? Why did the special admissions student escape a few months ago? And whose life was the key made of? You keep saying that everyone should be equal in the pursuit of the unknown. I became a sinner because of murder. Can those high-ranking school board members ignore such a crime?"
"Or are you simply a hypocrite, Forrest? You only pursue and punish the faults of those you can afford to offend, but when it comes to those who are higher in status and whom you can't even touch, you can forgive and turn a blind eye to these things?"
Under Chi Qing's repeated questioning, Levi acted as if he was "at a loss". He avoided the gaze that was looking directly at him and said nothing.
After seeing his reaction, Chi Qing narrowed his eyes.
"You said you wanted to change this city, but what if it's rotten from the root? The reason you came back so late was because you were being hunted, right? Those regular students who were disciplined by you couldn't stand it anymore and decided to completely eradicate you, the scourge. You escaped death, but did the academy give you any explanation for this?"
"They keep saying that they want to rectify the atmosphere, change the academy, and get students back on track. These are all lies. They are deceiving themselves, and you are deceiving yourself too! Are you talking to me about those high-sounding words?"
"You are actually just talking to yourself, because you have to keep hypnotizing yourself and make yourself believe that what you do is meaningful, so that you won't doubt the objective things and question what you insist on! Do you think I am right, Vic Forrest?"
It was not until more than ten seconds after Chi Qing asked this series of questions that he raised his head again and answered in a low voice.
"Even if you are deceiving yourself, there must be a reason to deceive yourself, right?"
"If you want to truly change this city, you don't have to deceive yourself like this. I can give you a chance, Forrest, a chance to fulfill your vision!"
Chi Qing sat on the sofa with his whole body relaxed. When he said this, it looked like he had no intention of misleading others, yet it was so bewitching that people couldn't help but want to listen to him continue.
"If you want to change this academy, sometimes you don't necessarily need to change the students. Why are those regular students so confident? This is clearly a place for learning, but they can do other things at will? Because the ultimate goal of learning is to become a scientist who masters the rules, and the key to this - the "key" is held by the academy itself."
"Whether they come here to become scientists or just to enjoy themselves for a few years to deal with their families, they all have no shortage of ways to get the key. The so-called natural theory exam in the academy is a complete joke, even if they completely eliminate the phenomenon of cheating."
"Because the school board has lowered the difficulty of the exam again and again in order to compromise, among those students who finally pass the exam and get the key, nearly one-fifth of them cannot become scientists. And if we really want to make a complete change here, we only need to change the rules for obtaining the keys. I am now looking for the thing that the academy uses to make keys!"
"As long as you are willing to help me and find it with me, we can use it together to meet our needs. If you want to change the academy, you can restrict the way ordinary people obtain the rules so that the key is no longer in the hands of only a few people. And of course, I can use it to do what I want!"
Finally, Chi Qing stated his purpose.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
While he said these words, his eyes never left Levi's gaze. While letting Levi feel his sincerity and earnestness, he was also observing Levi's emotional changes.
And in his eyes, Levi's eyes did show many struggles and hesitations, but in the end they were all concealed by the calmness like water.
In response to Chi Qing's invitation, Li Wei just asked.
"You all say that the school directors can't be trusted, but at least they really support me in doing things, so why should I trust you?"
Chi Qing did not answer this, but took out a piece of paper from the inside pocket of his suit.
The agreement between him and Levi was clearly written on the paper. At the same time, the parrot that had been standing on his shoulder jumped onto the paper. A drop of scarlet blood dripped from the parrot's sharp beak and fell on the paper, just like dripping on a layer of oil film, and turned into a drop of blood.
“A promise can sometimes become an unbreakable rule.”
