Looking around, there are tombstones everywhere.
It was very quiet, with only the rustling of wind and grass, mixed with the sounds of some small animals moving around.
Ji Qianchong walked in the designated direction.
July brought her here before, and on July's father's birthday, she accompanied her to pay homage, so she remembered the location of the cemetery.
Walking to the row of tombstones, Ji Qianchong saw July ten meters away from afar.
The woman sat on the stone ground in front of the tomb.
When Ji Qianchong walked over, he noticed that her hair was a little messy and her clothes were not tidy.
"July?" she called her.
Slowly squatting down, Ji Qianchong brushed away the hair that was blocking half of her face. The face with traces of tears still on it was imprinted in Ji Qianchong's eyes.
Qiyue looked very pale and exhausted. She must have been crying for a long time, as her eyes were bloodshot.
"What's wrong?" Ji Qianchong placed the yellow chrysanthemum in his hand in front of the grave and reached out to wipe the tears from July's face.
The woman immediately threw herself into her arms, hugged her tightly, and grabbed her clothes tightly with both hands.
It is early summer now and it is starting to get a little hot in the afternoon.
July was still wearing the same dress she wore last night, a light black skirt, but now the hem of her skirt was a little damaged, as if it had been torn into several pieces.
Being so close, Ji Qianchong could smell a strong scent on her body. Perhaps it was because it had been a while, the scent wasn't too strong, but it was still very distinct.
Ji Qianchong had smelled this smell before.
Back in Haicheng, she'd once gone to a bar for fun and accidentally stumbled into a private room, where she'd stumbled upon a man and woman making love. The smell in that room was very strong, and it was this same smell.
Along with this thought, Ji Qianchong's mind flooded into his mind.
Her pupils froze and she immediately looked down.
There were marks all around July's neck.
Some of the marks were shocking, almost purple. One could imagine what kind of night she had gone through.
Ji Qianchong immediately hugged her tightly and patted her back, "Let's go home first and come to see uncle next time."
July didn't say anything either.
Ji Qianchong picked her up. She had been sitting on the ground for too long and her legs were stiff. Ji Qianchong used a lot of strength to pick her up from the ground.
Originally, I wanted to take her back to Beishan Villa, but July refused.
Helpless, Ji Qianchong booked a room at the Royal Court Hotel.
She filled the tub with hot water and asked July to take a bath. She also asked the waiter to buy her a new set of clothes and two 48-hour emergency contraceptive pills.
Ji Qianchong glanced in the direction of the bathroom, his brows furrowed tightly.
She walked to the balcony, took out her cell phone and made a group call in the group chat, and the two ends were quickly connected.
Ji Qianchong spoke first: "Qing'er Nuannuan, how did Qiyue get home last night?"
"I was drunk last night and I can't remember how I got home. My mother told me this morning that it was Mr. Xia who took me home," said An Nuannuan.
Yan Qing's head still hurt, and she was still lying in bed. Her voice was groggy, "I can't remember clearly, but I just remember that July drank too much and was like a completely different person, very lively. I was sent home by Fu Ziyu, but as for July, I really can't remember. I drank too much last night, and now my head hurts."
"What's wrong, Qianwaer?" Yan Qing asked.
Ji Qianchong held the phone, her lips pressed into a line. She tilted her head to glance at the bathroom and said nothing. "Nothing, I'll hang up first. I have something to take care of."
Ji Qianchong hung up the phone and immediately walked to the computer desk in the bedroom and turned on the computer.
While the computer was booting up, she inserted a program from her phone into the computer. The computer instantly went blue screen, then returned to normal after a few seconds.
When the computer returned to normal, a new browser appeared.
She clicked it, entered a URL, and found the new IP number of the Capital Hotel.
After smooth operation, she found the monitoring page of the Capital Hotel, climbed into the Capital Hotel's network firewall, and secretly drilled in.
Last night's surveillance...
Ji Qianchong searched carefully and didn't miss a single one.
A surveillance video that appeared at 11:45 pm made her pause. It was the surveillance video of the corridor of the box they were in last night. At that moment, Lin Xi appeared in the corridor.
He walked into the box with a bouquet of flowers in his hand.
It was a little after 11:40 in the evening, and the four of them were already extremely drunk.
Ji Qianchong continued to watch, and as time passed, the door of the box finally reopened.
In the corridor, Ji Liangnian carried her away. Xia Song politely supported An Nuannuan as they walked forward, while Fu Ziyu walked at the end, holding the frantic Yan Qing.
The last few to come out were Lin Ran, Lin Xi, and July in Lin Xi's arms.
The surveillance video only showed Lin Xi holding July and leaving the Capital Hotel. Lin Ran was still following her when they left, but nothing could be seen after that.
Ji Qianchong quickly wiped out his traces and restored the computer to normal.
She dialed Lin Ran's number.
Lin Ran also drank last night, but he wasn't that drunk.
The other end of the phone was connected, and Ji Qianchong asked, "Lin Ran, last night you and Mr. Lin took Qiyue away. Did you leave after you sent Qiyue home?"
"July...you were all drunk last night, and I was the one who took July home. But she was so drunk I couldn't help her, so I asked Writer Lin to help."
"After leaving the Capital Hotel, just as we were about to get in the car, July vomited all over me." She added, "I wanted to get July home quickly so I could shower. But July refused to leave and just squatted on the street, and no one could help."
In short, drunken madness.
"Writer Lin saw that I was in such a state of disarray, so he told me to go home first and he would take Qiyue back. I don't know what happened after that. What happened, Qian Chong?"
Just as Ji Qianchong was about to say something, he caught a glimpse of July coming out of the bathroom out of the corner of his eye.
The girl was wrapped in a bathrobe, her face as pale as a sheet of paper.
"It's okay, thank you." Ji Qianchong hung up the phone and put it on the coffee table beside him.
She immediately walked towards Qiyue and hugged her in her arms. She leaned over to her ear and whispered softly, "Are you hungry? Let's go eat, okay?"
July shook her head and pushed Ji Qianchong away a little.
She walked out of her arms and headed towards the sofa, where a new set of clothes lay and two pills were placed on the coffee table.
Qiyue didn't even look at it, so she took the medicine and swallowed it. Then she supported herself on the sofa and slowly sat down.
After taking a bath, the woman's expression was not as panicked as when she was seen in the cemetery before. Except for her pale face, everything else was no different from usual.
Because of her behavior, Ji Qianchong became more and more worried.
She walked over and sat down next to Qiyue. "Qiyue, if you feel uncomfortable, please tell me, okay? Tell me who that person is..."
The woman pursed her lips. There was a tiny wound at the corner of her lip, caused by a bite.
