“It was a girl from another class who told me to go to Mr. Smith's to get some materials. But I didn't expect that when I got there, she locked me inside as soon as I entered, and then I saw that Mr. Smith was already—already dead.”
Lu Qingyan trembled slightly; even now, recalling that scene, she was still terrified.
"Are you close to Smith? How many times have you been to his office?"
Lu Qingyan shook her head: "I'm not very familiar with Professor Smith, but I always do very well in his classes, and he has praised me many times. This is my first time going there. I didn't even know where his office was before. This time, the person who asked me to go and get the materials showed me the way."
Are you familiar with the person who asked you to go out?
"All I know is that she's not in our class, and I've never seen her before." Lu Qingyan lowered her head in shame. Someone she'd never met before dared to go out with her; Lu Qingyan was embarrassed to admit she had any brains.
However, in that environment, Lu Qingyan really couldn't muster any defensive thoughts.
Rong Qing looked at Lu Qingyan with a half-smile, but Lu Qingyan could see a hint of mockery in that smile.
"The security cameras downstairs have recorded the time you went in, but Smith was already dead when you went in. Once his time of death is determined, you can be completely cleared of suspicion. However, do you know who brought you there? Perhaps we need to investigate that person."
“I don’t know her name, but I can draw her!” Lu Qingyan said, then asked Rong Qing, “Could you give me paper and a pen?”
Rong Qing took his own and gave it to her.
Lu Qingyan's hands are long. After six years of care, they are no longer as red and calloused as they were at the beginning. Instead, they have a delicate and fair glow. The golden sunlight outside the window falls on Lu Qingyan's hands, making Rong Qing slightly lost in thought.
Lu Qingyan was very quick with her hands, and a sketch was finished in half an hour. Rong Qing held the freshly drawn portrait and said to Lu Qingyan, "This drawing is quite good. We'll be able to find this person soon."
Lu Qingyan had no doubt about this. After all, even with a portrait so distorted that only a few hairs remained on the head, they were able to accurately find their target in a vast sea of people. With her portrait being so clear and the location so precise, there was no reason why they couldn't find her.
Two hours later, Jesse brought the man over.
The girl was about the same height as Lu Qingyan, and considered short for her countrymen. As soon as she saw Lu Qingyan, she exclaimed excitedly, "Lu, please tell them I'm not the murderer! I really didn't know Mr. Smith would be in trouble!"
Jesse whispered in Lu Qingyan's ear, "Her name is Louise. I heard that she is considered a coward by many people. She doesn't get along very well with anyone, but she hasn't offended anyone either. Only a few friends who love to have fun have mocked her for being a coward."
Jesse is a fantastic worker.
Hearing Louise's outburst, she said with displeasure, "Louise, calm down. We just called you here to ask you some questions, we don't intend to do anything to you. The autopsy results will be out soon, and the body will tell us the whole truth. The law won't allow us to restrict your freedom, and we'll let you go after we finish our investigation."
