Finding evidence
The two looked at each other.
Four-fifths! Doesn't that leave only 20 percent for them?
"Impossible!" Wan Xi gritted his teeth and said, "I can only give you half of my fortune at most. That's already the biggest compensation! Everyone knows that Xiao Ming and I are the best at searching for supplies in the team and have the most accumulated supplies. You asked for most of our wealth right away. Who would do such a loss-making business?"
The roles were reversed, and now it was Zhang Fu's turn to persuade the two: "If I report this to Captain Ning, what do you think Captain Ning will do? She will put Xiao Ming in solitary confinement, confiscate all his personal belongings and use part of them as compensation.
So instead of asking me to report to Captain Ning, where you would lose both your wealth and your freedom, you might as well hand everything over to me. At least Captain Ning won't find out, and you can continue to look for supplies outside."
Wan Xi glared at him and lowered his voice to speak fiercely: "Are you crazy or are we crazy? Even if Xiao Ming is put in solitary confinement and his property is confiscated, it will only be half! You are asking for too much and want to take most of my share. Do you still have the face to do that?"
Zhang Fu smiled and said, "But what if I tell Captain Ning that it was you two who teamed up to kill Yan Heng?"
After the end of the world, people's hearts are in turmoil.
Wan Xi opened her mouth, too shocked to speak: "How could you use Yan Heng's death to lie for your own benefit? Do you really love your boyfriend?"
"When we were together, he told me that he wanted to give me a better life." Zhang Fu looked at the various supplies on the table and the Hermès bag, and smiled slightly: "He has done it now."
Crazy, really crazy!
Wan Xi gritted her teeth and thought that she should just agree. There was no need to make a fuss with a madman. It would be disastrous if she ended up losing herself!
The temperature in the dormitory gradually rose to 46 or 47 degrees. Zhang Fu's throat was dry as she spoke, and she rummaged in her pockets: "I remember you took away a batch of milk tea powder packets from the Plaza Supermarket last time? When you give me the supplies, remember to give that to me. I like milk tea the most."
"I haven't said I agree yet!" Wan Xi gritted her teeth, but had to admit that at that moment she was indeed calculating what supplies were in her dormitory.
Zhang Fu turned around to pour some water, her words revealing a sense of smugness. She chuckled and said, "Didn't agree? Fine, if she doesn't agree, I'll go tell Captain Ning and see what she'll do—"
Unable to bear it any longer, Xiao Ming picked up the eight-treasure porridge on the table and hit Zhang Fu hard on the back of the head.
Blood spread and dripped onto the ground, Xiao Ming held the eight-treasure porridge and gasped.
The weather was hot and his temper was flaring. He was annoyed by what this shameless woman said and in a fit of rage he threw her to the ground. Only then did he hear his heart beating like a drum in his chest.
"You!" Wan Xi reacted quickly and sniffed his breath. He breathed a sigh of relief when he felt the cool breeze on his fingertips. "Fortunately, I'm still breathing."
"No!" Xiao Ming hugged Wan Xi tightly: "Xixi, I don't want to be put in solitary confinement by Captain Ning, I don't want to go to jail! We hurt her in the dormitory and she will never reconcile with us no matter what, even if we take out all the supplies!"
Wan Xi was hugged in his arms, and he could feel the other person's heart beating violently. He couldn't help but wet his eyes: "What should we do? What do you think we should do?"
Xiao Ming stared at Zhang Fu, who had lost consciousness on the ground, in a daze: "Either we escape from D University now, or we make sure she never speaks again!"
Do you want to kill Zhang Fu?
Wan Xi was a little hesitant. After all, this was her classmate, and they had helped each other many times when the end of the world came.
"Xixi, do you know why she only wants four-fifths of our supplies?" Xiao Ming stood up, grabbed Wanxi's shoulders, leaned his forehead against hers, and looked directly into her eyes: "Because she wants to give us a way to survive, so that we have hope to continue to go out and risk our lives to collect supplies. When she runs out of food, Yan Heng's death will be the best way for her to force us to hand over the supplies."
Wan Xi immediately understood the interests involved here. His guilty look disappeared in an instant, and he began to worry about their own escape route: "What should we do? There are so many young people in D University right now, and it would be really dangerous for us to escape and become a single soldier! It's not as safe as it is now. At least we don't have to worry about whether the dormitory building will be robbed, and we have a stable place to live."
"Then there is only one way left." Xiao Ming squeezed her shoulders and said, "Don't be afraid. I'll find a way."
"Ridiculous!" Xiao Ming on the stage interrupted Jiang Miao's guess with panic in his eyes: "All this is your conjecture, a story you made up! What basis do you have to use a story to convict me! Captain Ning, do you believe someone who uses a made-up story as evidence? Don't forget that she is a liar. She pretended to be someone else's identity and sneaked into our D University as a spy! You can't believe what she says!"
"No." A clear and cute boy's voice came from the darkness below the stage: "Sister is not impersonating me, I took the initiative to lend my identity to you."
The captain wiped his sweat and reported to Zefeng on the stage: "Boss, the people have been brought back."
The scene above was so exciting that the two of them had been watching it in the audience for a long time.
The young boy chuckled and said, "Old man, my sister just came in to look for some information, so what? I heard from the captain that she even gave your laboratory a pager."
Ze Feng was furious: "You have no respect for your elders! Didn't we agree that if I give you a meal, you must put away your temper and work hard at D University to do experiments?"
"Yeah, thank you, Teacher Gao." It was obvious that the boy was expressing his gratitude sincerely, but the content of his thanks was completely different from what Zefeng had expected.
He looked at the figure under the spotlight: "If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have met my sister again in City D."
Jiang Miao is an only child. Her only two younger brothers are from her second uncle and eldest aunt. They are two naughty kids and are extremely annoying.
She wanted to frown and retort, but when she heard the sweet "sister" at the end, some forgotten memories attacked her.
——Isn’t this voice the same as the little brat who was seen through when she was pretending to be a bald man in the commercial street last year?
He looks only fifteen or sixteen years old, but I didn't expect that he has already taken the college entrance examination and became the top scorer in D City.
Xiao Ming was about to collapse: "Are you listening to me? No matter who she is, it is not a reason for her to use a story to frame me!"
"I know you're anxious, but don't be anxious yet." Jiang Miao looked at him coldly, then turned and said, "Captain Ning, I was just speculating on their motives and reasons for committing the crime. What I'm going to say next is the highlight."
"After you knocked Zhang Fu unconscious, you thought of many ways to create an alibi. Because you are a couple living together, even if you had a fight, it is common sense that one of you should go out to calm down. It would be too obvious if you each went to your respective friends to stay overnight. However, if someone stays in the dormitory without witnesses, it is easy to be suspected."
Jiang Miao stared at the two people opposite him with a threatening look in his eyes. "So in the end, Xiao Ming took action and inflicted injuries on Zhang Fu, including broken ribs, which required a lot of strength. He first excluded Wan Xi, a girl, from the murderer's range, while he went to find his alibi."
"At this time, Zhang Fu, who had her ribs broken and the back of her head injured, should still be alive. The two of them worked together and performed a scene in front of Li Ping, He Junwen and Lan Miao." Jiang Miao's eyes swept across the faces of everyone on the stage one by one, and slowly narrated his own inference: "Xiao Ming plays a good brother who is depressed after a quarrel. And Wan Xi plays Zhang Fu, who is overwhelmed with grief over the death of her boyfriend."
"You're talking nonsense!" Wan Xi was like a cat whose tail was stepped on, and hurriedly defended himself: "You inferred me to be the murderer based on just a few guesses of yours? Have you seen too many famous detectives and think you can do it yourself? Hey, everyone, don't be fooled by this liar. She just wants to alienate the feelings of our D University students. She has bad intentions, she..."
Jiang Miao blocked out her meaningless and pale rebuttal and continued, "Xiao Ming went back to get the game console, and then used the excuse that his girlfriend might have been in trouble to trick Li Ping and the other man into going to their dormitory to witness Wan Xi taking sleeping pills. After they left, Wan Xi quietly lurked in the deceased's dormitory, crying loudly to attract Lan Miao's attention, leaving a message that the deceased was awake and alive."
"Finally, we will wait until two or three o'clock, and then completely kill Zhang Fu, who is already unconscious and unable to fight back."
Under the spotlight, no matter how small the movement was, it could not escape the dense eyes around. Wan Xi subconsciously dodged her gaze, and Xiao Ming's expression was gloomy. He wanted to stop her from continuing speaking, but he didn't know how to start.
"I didn't." Wan Xi opened his mouth and could only beg Ning Li: "Captain Ning, we didn't! This is all her imagination! She has no evidence and just makes false accusations based on confusion. How can we trust such a person's words!"
Jiang Miao's eyes swept towards her sweatpants: "Of course there is evidence. Can you tell me what happened to the wound on your right thigh?"
The words to protest were stuck in his throat. Wan Xi looked at Jiang Miao in horror, his voice trembling unconsciously: "I, this is the wound I got when I was on a mission yesterday. What does this mean!"
"Chairman Leng is the most experienced person here. Why don't you let her see whether the force applied to your thigh wound was caused by external force or you cut it yourself?"
At this point, most people believed Jiang Miao's inference, but Li Ping still murmured, "Even if she cut herself, so what? You can't count a knife on yourself as evidence."
This question puzzled many people in the audience. Everyone was completely immersed in Jiang Miao's reasoning and was eagerly waiting for her answer.
"Of course it's to cover up the dried blood from the deceased's old wounds." Fortunately, Jiang Miao had spent enough time with the two of them in his previous life and was familiar with their behavior habits.
She noticed the wound on her thigh from the way Wan Xi staggered when he went on stage and the obvious tension in his right leg when he walked. Combined with the deductions from the case, it was not difficult to guess why Wan Xi stabbed herself for no reason.
Using fresh blood to cover up old dried blood stains to confuse people was a trick Wan Xi had played in his previous life.
If not, Leng Qingyu would be able to see at a glance that the wound did not match the time of death, and then deduce the correct time of injury and reversely calculate the gap between the time of death, and then obtain the information that Zhang Fu lost her personal freedom at ten o'clock.
Wan Xi was visibly nervous. Xiao Ming stepped forward and held her hand, saying firmly, "You made up a story that is so exaggerated, but in the end, there is no solid evidence!"
