Not long after returning from Yao Anna's place, Hu Yue contacted Song Mengmeng.
Because the matter that Song Mengmeng had asked her to investigate had now yielded some results. Moreover, there were some things that needed to be discussed in person.
However, seeing that it was getting late, Song Mengmeng directly invited Hu Yue to come to her home.
According to Song Mengmeng's preferences, her current home with Yan Di is not actually very big; it's just a high-end apartment under the Di Shi Group.
Hu Yue had no interest in wasting energy on gossip. She greeted Hu Da, who opened the door for her, and then, without saying a word, handed Song Mengmeng a stack of documents.
"Following your previous advice, I went back and investigated the life trajectories of Fang Wenwen and Yu Manman from childhood to adulthood."
It would have been better if we hadn't investigated; the investigation revealed quite a few details that we would have completely overlooked if we had looked at them in isolation.
The information provided by Hu Yue was very comprehensive.
Before they got to know each other properly in high school, their lives were normal and nothing special. The real changes started after Yu Manman entered high school and met Fang Wenwen.
"I asked the classmates who were in the same class as Fang Wenwen and Yu Manman about their relationship. The result was that their relationship was quite good before Yu Manman's accident. They were almost inseparable!"
Yu Manman's family was poor, and she had always relied on school scholarships to make a living. After meeting Fang Wenwen, Fang Wenwen took care of almost all of her food, clothing, and other necessities.
Later on, it almost reached the point where whatever Fang Wenwen had, Yu Manman would definitely have too.
At that time, there were rumors that the Fang family might be considering adopting Yu Manman and making her their goddaughter! But then something happened, it seems that Yu Manman fell seriously ill, and then a few days after arriving at school, she accidentally fell from the rooftop of the dormitory building!
The investigation at the time concluded that Yu Manman's academic performance had declined during that period, and the excessive pressure led to the tragedy that followed!
Fang Wenwen was greatly affected by this incident and took a six-month leave of absence from school before going abroad to study!
That's the end of the matter; it's been dropped.
However, after asking around more closely, I actually discovered a detail that no one else had noticed before.
Some say they saw Yu Manman having a heated argument with Fang Wenwen before she fell from the building. If what you said about the 'soul swap' is true, then Yu Manman's emotional changes at that time weren't actually due to excessive academic pressure, but rather because she couldn't cope with the sudden change of identity!
Hu Yue sighed, then took out her tablet and showed it to Song Mengmeng some photos: "These are photos from a Weibo account that Fang Wenwen used to use. Although the account is no longer in use, we can still find some clues in it."
Also, whether it's a coincidence or not, Fang Wenwen has never logged into this Weibo account since that incident!
On the contrary, Yu Manman's Weibo account, which had already fallen to her death, was logged into again two years later, and most of the content was deleted, including records of her relationship with Fang Wenwen.
“They’ve been to Sawadika!” Song Mengmeng gently clicked on one of the photos. In the photo, two little girls were wearing traditional Sawadika clothing and smiling brightly in front of a Buddha statue.
Although the caption for this photo only shows a heart shape, judging from the date, it was taken during the summer before Yu Manman fell to her death.
"So, this coincides with your previous guess! They went to Sawadika, but what happened there is now impossible for us to find out!"
However, the result was that after returning from that summer trip, Yu Manman suddenly underwent a drastic personality change and then fell to her death! Fang Wenwen also fell seriously ill and left the country, only returning four years later and reappearing in everyone's sight.
Hu Yue nodded. Actually, after investigating this matter to this point, we could pretty much guess the truth behind it.
She remained silent for a while, seemingly conflicted, but in the end she chose to tell the truth: "Because Song Ke suddenly intervened in this matter, I couldn't help but do some investigation on him."
And it turned out that this investigation revealed something quite surprising...
I don't know if I'm overthinking it or if it's just a coincidence. Song Ke's most trusted partner, Yu Guang, returned from Sawadika just two days ago, and supposedly, there was a stranger accompanying him. I tried to investigate further, but I couldn't find any information about that stranger!
I didn't want to ask too many questions, but I did have my own sources of information.
Now, reviewing the visitor logs, this unfamiliar face doesn't appear in any of the visitor records!
"You suspect that Song Ke has a problem?!" Song Mengmeng frowned slightly, then smiled as she thought of the familiar feeling she had from Song Ke: "I think your suspicion is not unfounded!"
From the moment Song Ke appeared in front of me, I felt a sense of familiarity about him!
It's not about him as a person, but about the aura surrounding him!
"I hadn't thought about it that much before, but now that you've reminded me, I really do remember—the scent on him is exactly the smell of S-oil that sorcerers often use!"
"Song Ke is connected to sorcerers?!"
This… he… he’s the direct disciple of the Maoshan Sect’s leader! If nothing unexpected happens, he’s the future successor of the Maoshan Sect! How could he ruin his future at a time like this?!
Although she was the one who found the information, Hu Yue still looked incredulous when Song Mengmeng pointed it out.
The sorcerers are currently the most active group among evil practitioners!
Because of their proximity to China, they have never given up on infiltrating and influencing China! Every year, their special case investigation team receives many cases related to black magic.
For a long time, their special task force deeply hated sorcerers!
She truly never imagined that one day, someone close to her would be colluding with a sorcerer! It's even possible that he himself had begun practicing sorcery!
Hu Yue always believed Song Mengmeng's deductions!
Since she so bluntly stated that she could smell the S oil on Song Ke, then he must not have had occasional contact with sorcerers, but rather it had been a long-term and continuous affair!
