That person deserves to die?
Han Xu wanted to ask more questions, but Jiang Nian didn't say anything more.
Head down, eating the ice cream in front of him spoonful by spoonful.
Her long, thick eyelashes drooped slightly, concealing the emotions in her eyes.
This is her habit.
Eating ice cream can help you think.
Jiang Nian didn't look up until she finished the tub of ice cream and asked, "Is my phone fully charged?"
I forgot to charge my phone before going to bed last night, and it was turned off this morning right after I replied to Shen Qinglan's text message.
"It's charged up, I'll go get it for you."
Han Xu took the phone, and as soon as Jiang Nian turned it on, she found that she had a lot of missed calls and text messages.
Si Boye called her many times, and finally sent her a message asking where she was.
Fu Jinyi also sent a message, asking her what happened in the video and whether she needed his help.
Jiang Nian replied to Fu Jinyi, saying that she was fine.
Then I called Si Boye.
The call was answered almost before the first ring had even finished.
A slightly hoarse male voice came from the other end: "Baby, why did it take you so long to answer the phone? Where are you?"
"At Han Xu's apartment," Jiang Nian paused, "you know about what happened at school?"
“Jinyi told me this; it was information given to him by the Municipal Procuratorate,” Si Boye said. “Don’t worry, I’ve already had things covered up. Your maternal grandfather, uncles, and brothers won’t know for the time being.”
Jiang Nian asked, "...Aren't you going to ask me what exactly happened in the video?"
"If you killed someone, you must have had a reason for it. If you want to tell me, you will."
"Besides, even if you really killed people randomly, I wouldn't care."
Si Boye asked himself honestly, and realized that he had never been a kind and compassionate person.
The same goes for the person he fell in love with.
Whether she's an angel or a ruthless demon, he doesn't care. As long as his precious child is alright, that's all that matters.
Si Boye continued, "I had Lin Qian check with Yingzhong, and the person who prepared the lecture video said they knew nothing about today's events."
"The video was copied to the computer in the auditorium last night. With people coming and going this morning, there was a lot of noise, and many people had the opportunity to tamper with it and change the video."
"It will take some time to find out who is behind this."
"No need to investigate, I know who did it."
Jiang Nian suddenly spoke.
"You know?" Si Boye was surprised.
Han Xu, sitting opposite Jiang Nian, also looked shocked: "Sister Nian, do you know who's messing with you?"
"Don't worry, I'm fine," Jiang Nian said calmly. "If I panicked, I would be doing that person a favor."
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Nian found a number on her phone.
The text message records with the other party were from the day the whole class went to Beijing.
The first text message the other party sent her was a photo of her and Annie at the Arctic Fox.
The second text message was sent in Anne's voice: "Dear friend, long time no see. Did you miss me?"
This is the person who lured her to the tiger enclosure with photos that day, intending to kill her in the tiger's mouth.
This same person helped rehabilitate Ji Yuwei's reputation after it suffered a setback. They mentioned her to Ji Yuwei, saying they might need her help in the future.
Everything is connected.
Jiang Nian made the call.
The first thing he said was:
"Anne is your father's illegitimate daughter, your half-sister?"
Our meeting last night was definitely not a coincidence.
The girl on the other end of the phone had a sweet voice.
"You finally called me. I was wondering when you'd guess it was me."
"So, do you like the gift I gave you? It took me a lot of effort to get that video."
"However, such a thing happening in China, and to a high school student, seems too shocking."
Jiang Nian's expression remained unchanged.
He spoke coldly into the phone: "So you came to China and meticulously planned all of this against me, including getting close to me, all to avenge Annie?"
“Of course not,” Joey chuckled softly on the other end.
"How could I possibly care about an illegitimate daughter who was secretly born and raised in the slums and whose bloodline is lowly?"
"My sister's death only strengthened our bond. The person I truly care about has always been you, J."
"I've already told you, I find you very interesting. I'm also very interested to see who's better between us."
"The show has begun, please, please don't let me down."
Joey's voice carried a hint of anticipation.
After saying that, he hung up the phone.
*
The show has indeed begun.
At this moment, the academic affairs office of Yingzhong was overcrowded and in complete chaos.
Although the news was suppressed online, it couldn't be stopped from being spread by word of mouth among the representatives of the parents' committee.
Within hours, all the parents in the parent-teacher association group knew that a student in Class 36 might have committed murder.
"Call the police! The school isn't calling the police for something like this? Are they deliberately protecting a murderer?!"
"Who would feel comfortable letting their child stay in the same school as a murderer like this? No matter what, expel this student first."
"Exactly! If our child gets into trouble while in a school with these kinds of people, can the school take responsibility? This is even more worrying than school violence!"
"If the school doesn't expel this student, our parents' committee will organize in the group chat to transfer all our children to other schools!"
