Zhuang Li gradually calmed down, and the blood in the small dark room disappeared completely.
7480, who was climbing the wall, fell to the ground with a thud and asked terrifiedly, "Master, why did Yaya commit suicide? Who forced her to death?"
"There were too many people who forced her to death." Zhuang Li still closed his eyes, as if unwilling to see this dirty world.
7480 suddenly didn't dare to ask.
But Zhuang Li began to speak slowly: "Do you know what Baudelaire means?"
"W-what do you mean?" 7480 swallowed.
"Baudelaire is a famous poet from Country F. His representative work is 'Flowers of Evil', so this name, like Mephisto, is also metaphorical. This man and woman, one is the devil and the other is the flower of evil, they are a good match, right?" Zhuang Li opened his eyes and chuckled strangely.
7480 still didn't dare to speak.
"Do you know who they are?" Zhuang Li continued to ask.
7480 was so curious that he couldn't help but ask, "Who are they?"
"They are the male and female protagonists chosen by your Lord God. How about it, is the Lord God's vision as good as always?" Zhuang Li spoke while typing quickly on the keyboard, looking for more clues.
7480 immediately spat, "Bah! That bastard Lord God is not mine! Master, stop talking nonsense!" Finally, he said in surprise, "Master, there's no such description in the script. In the script, the hero and heroine are very pure, they never even held hands, and they're also very kind! After Yaya committed suicide, the heroine also suffered from depression!"
"Pure? Kind?" Zhuang Li said with a half-smile, "I can only say that the Lord God's scriptwriting skills are getting stronger and stronger. Do you know what the male protagonist does?"
7480 nodded: "I know, he's a school teacher."
"Be more precise."
7480 flipped through the script and corrected himself, "Actually, he's a psychological counselor who specializes in helping high school seniors relieve their stress."
"Psychological counselors also need to take the medical qualification exam, so to be precise, the male protagonist Jin Yuanfei is a doctor. Did you notice that Mephisto said Yaya looked very unhappy and asked if she needed help with prescription medicine. The word "prescription" is used only by doctors. Let me ask you, where is the doctor in this school?"
7480 blurted out: "School infirmary!"
"Yaya jumped from the laboratory building, which happens to be the school infirmary. Can I assume that Yaya didn't intend to commit suicide that day, but was looking for Jin Yuanfei? But I don't know what Jin Yuanfei said to her, and she ended her life in despair?"
Zhuang Li found the floor plan of the laboratory building on the Internet, and the school clinic was on the third floor of the building.
Zhuang Li pulled up the photo of Yaya's body that Mephisto had taken and continued, "Did you see when this photo was taken?"
7480 took a closer look and gasped: "The moment Yaya jumped down, this photo appeared."
"What does this prove?"
"This proves that the person who took the photo was in the same building. He was able to be at the crime scene immediately."
"Yes, he was in the same building, silently waiting for Yaya to jump. Perhaps while waiting, he even made himself a cup of coffee and took a few sips leisurely. His heart was filled with anticipation, joy, and delight. He was waiting to use Yaya's shattered body to please someone. Yaya's death was a gift he had carefully wrapped."
Zhuang Li's eyes were bloodshot, and his voice was hoarse. "He treated my sister like a plaything, cocooning her in a jar disguised as tenderness. He then used the sting of her deepest pain to pierce her belly and heart, leaving her with no strength to live."
Zhuang Li wiped his eyes and said coldly, "This Jin Yuanfei is inhuman. As he himself metaphorically puts it, he's a liar, a person who hates light, and he only worships pure evil. That's why he likes Xu Jingjing, who compares himself to the flower of evil."
7480 The more he listened, the more frightened he became.
Following its master, it has seen many bad guys, and even the master himself is a big bad guy.
But this was the first time it had seen someone as perverted and evil as Jin Yuanfei.
Zhuang Li curled his lips into a cold smile. "A devil, a flower of evil. The hero and heroine chosen by the Lord God are indeed a perfect match. Now, do you still think this is a pure campus love story?"
7480: "...I'm so sick I'm about to throw up."
Zhuang Li changed the subject and asked, "Do you know whose child Yaya is pregnant with?"
"who?"
"Xu Yong."
7480: “!!!”
Zhuang Li pulled up Huang Wei's medical records. "See? Every time this woman has an abortion, she asks Yaya for a month's sick leave. Why? This isn't the old world anymore. Yaya doesn't need to take care of her during the confinement period, right?"
7480 was stunned for a long moment before covering her face and screaming, "Could it be that Yaya was the one who had the abortion?"
"Besides this explanation, can you think of anything else?" Zhuang Li stared at the computer screen, his eyes dark. "The autopsy report shows that Yaya did have an abortion, but I can't find her medical records. Yaya hates all men and only hangs out with female cosplayers. I have every reason to believe that she was assaulted by a man."
7480 kept patting his chest: "Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god! The first time, she was only twelve years old! Oh my god!"
7480 was so angry that his eyes turned red.
"Yes, she was only twelve years old at the time. Her mother not only failed to fulfill her responsibility to protect her, but also helped the murderer conceal all his crimes. She even took her daughter to the hospital herself and covered up all the evidence. Yaya had no way to tell anyone about her fear. She had thought her mother would be her protector, but she pushed her into an even deeper abyss of despair."
Zhuang Li pointed to the medical records and said, "This is a private, high-end medical institution that only treats members. Appointments must be made in advance. Ordinary people can't even get through the door, so it's extremely private. The chances of Yaya's classmates running into her in the obstetrics and gynecology department during her appointment are practically zero. As long as the hospital keeps the secrets secret, no one will know about this."
Zhuang Li pulled up Xu Jingjing's photo, a sharp, dark glint in his eyes. "But the news that Yaya had an abortion still spread throughout the school, and even the number of abortions was accurate to two. You can probably guess who spread this news, right?"
7480 said firmly, "It's Xu Jingjing. Only she would know about this."
"Yes, only she would know, and only she would spread it around." Zhuang Li said calmly, "Huang Wei would never betray her husband to maintain her life as a noblewoman. Xu Yong would also keep it secret to protect his reputation. Only Xu Jingjing had this motive. Huang Wei intervened and killed her mother, so she's taking revenge on Huang Wei's daughter. She's also going to force Yaya to death."
Zhuang Li closed his eyes and spoke solemnly, "And then she did it. She learned that Yaya and Jin Yuanfei were going to meet after school, so she had Jin Yuanfei detained and then hired two thugs to harm Yaya. She knew Yaya's heart was broken and fragile, and she wanted to destroy all hope of Yaya's survival. She truly deserves to be called the Flower of Evil."
7480 was trembling with fear, but still spoke stubbornly: "But Yaya is innocent, Yaya has done nothing wrong."
Zhuang Li shook his head, his tone cold and gloomy. "Those who do evil don't care if she's innocent or not. They hate light, they despise hope, and they destroy beauty. They can no longer be called human. Xu Jingjing is eighteen years old, an adult. She knows exactly what she's doing and the consequences it will bring."
Zhuang Li stood up and put on his coat, then said slowly, "Now that she's an adult, she should be held accountable for the evil she's done."
7480 was silent for a long time before shaking his head sadly. "It's useless. Although she is an adult and can be punished by law, Yaya's body has been cremated, leaving no evidence and no witnesses. The chat records you found are very obscure. A skilled lawyer could find ten thousand reasons to refute your accusations. Moreover, these two accounts were registered under someone else's identity, and there is no way to contact Jin Yuanfei and Xu Jingjing themselves. Forget suing them. The police may not even be able to file a case."
Zhuang Li said calmly, "If there's no evidence to file a case, I'll let these bastards surrender themselves. Eventually, they'll cry and scream and rush to confess their crimes to the police."
7480 asked hopefully, "Master, you already have a plan, right? What are you going to do?"
Zhuang Li shook his head without saying anything, just opened the door and walked out.
---
An hour later, Zhuang Li, carrying a newly purchased suitcase, arrived at a dilapidated residential building in the old city. He stood downstairs for a long time before slowly ascending to the third floor. He used a wire to open the innermost door and quietly walked in.
This was the original owner's childhood home, and it was also the place where Yaya cut her wrists for the first time. During their divorce, the house was awarded to the original owner's father, and after the father and son left the country, no one lived there anymore.
Zhuang Li checked all the rooms one by one and finally found the small bed that Yaya had slept in. The sheets had not been changed and were covered with black spots, which were Yaya's blood.
When she attempted suicide for the first time, she chose the place where her best memories were stored as her grave.
Zhuang Li tore off the dirty bed sheet, folded it into a square, put it in the suitcase, and then continued to search the house.
The siblings' lost baby teeth were carefully stored in a small iron box by their father, who loved his two children dearly. Zhuang Li opened the box, took a look, and then put it in his suitcase. He then gradually packed away the photo albums, toys, handmade greeting cards, and other belongings.
7480 didn't know what he was doing with these things, and didn't dare to ask more.
When he walked into the bathroom, Zhuang Li was stunned.
7480 let out a low cry.
It was because Yaya wrote a line of words on the wall with her own blood: [Brother, I miss you so much. Dad, I am here to accompany you.]
This was the last ray of light in her heart, and also her last cry. Her brother and father were the only remaining warmth in her short life, and it was something she could not touch.
Zhuang Li stood at the bathroom door for a long time, unable to move, the crystal clear water light swirling in his pupils.
7480's sobbing voice came from his mind, piercing his head and making him feel a splitting pain. But he did not blame or dissuade her. He just walked slowly to the wall and traced the words with his fingertips, feeling the remaining thoughts of Yaya.
After a long time, Zhuang Li retracted his cold fingertips and called Huang Wei.
"Who's there?" Huang Wei's tone was languid, as if she'd just woken up. Her daughter's death had been so tragic, yet her voice was filled with the smoothness and contentment of a prosperous life. She wasn't sad at all.
"I am Zhuang Li." Zhuang Li said in a deep voice.
"Do I know you?" Huang Wei actually forgot his son's name.
After being stunned for a while, she let out a low "ah", probably because she remembered.
"Why are you looking for me? Forget about borrowing money. I'm a stepmother and my life is not easy either." Huang Wei said preemptively.
"Yaya committed suicide. Don't you have anything to say to me?" Zhuang Li said in a cold tone.
Huang Wei fell silent, her breathing becoming noticeably heavier. It turned out she also felt guilty.
Zhuang Li pressed the issue, "Why did Yaya commit suicide?"
Huang Wei immediately distanced himself from the matter: "I don't know either. She blames me for divorcing your father and never tells me what's on her mind. I really don't know!"
Zhuang Li said slowly, "I'll give you one more chance. Tell me the truth. As long as you tell me the truth, I can let you go."
Huang Wei was furious. "Who do you think you are? Is it your turn to let me go? I'm telling the truth. I don't know why she committed suicide. You're not in the country, you don't understand the situation. Do you know what Yaya has become over the years? She skipped school every day and played with those hooligans outside..."
In order to cover up her husband's crimes, she even began to throw dirty water on her dead daughter.
Zhuang Li didn't have the patience to listen any further and hung up the phone directly.
None of these beasts deserve to be forgiven!
