Chapter 49 The Great Campus Escape (3)
Lin Chujiu glanced at the comments and was so anxious she almost cried:
"I misspoke, I didn't mean that, I meant..."
At this point, she hesitated to continue describing, because from her angle just now, it looked exactly like she was looking at…
The more you try to explain, the worse it gets.
Chu Jiu became increasingly flustered.
The comments section is getting increasingly lewd.
The underworld is becoming increasingly warm and red.
"Enough!" Mingdu stopped her, not wanting to look at this audacious woman anymore.
If a man had done this to him, that person would be dead by now.
The bones were shattered beyond recognition.
But his deep-seated upbringing and respect for women wouldn't allow him to do that.
Unless the other party goes too far.
Lin Chujiu timidly sat down by the window and looked out.
After a long silence, she asked him, "How's the investigation going?"
Mingdu sat on the sofa, making sure she wasn't getting too close before speaking:
"That's about enough..."
Lin Chujiu was delighted after hearing this, "Then when can you return Yu Xuan's body to her parents?"
Mingdu rubbed his temples. "But there's still one thing I haven't done."
Lin Chujiu quickly asked him, "What is it?"
Mingdu sighed softly, "We found Yu Xuan's body."
Lin Chujiu was somewhat surprised, "Shouldn't corpses be kept in certain specific places?"
The school is so small, how could you not find it?
Mingdu looked at her and replied helplessly:
"We really can't find it. We've searched everywhere the school can, and..."
Lin Chujiu quickly pressed, "And what?"
When she was anxious, her brows furrowed slightly, but her features were truly gentle.
When you look at someone, you not only don't get angry, but you even feel a sense of reproach.
Mingdu lowered his head, controlling himself from looking at her. "The school has installed surveillance cameras, and the roads next to the school have also been equipped with them. There is no sign of the body being transported."
Lin Chujiu frowned; she really wanted to find Yu Xuan's body as soon as possible.
It's not just about getting through customs as quickly as possible, but also about helping this family little by little.
I remember Yu Xuan's gentle and bright smile during that video call that night, and how her parents chatted with her in such a kind and honest way. Her father even invited her to eat braised pork sometime...
Lin Chujiu felt a pang of pain in her heart as she thought about these things.
My eyes welled up again; I felt an urge to cry.
Before Lin Chujiu could speak, Mingdu looked up at her and found that she looked like she was about to cry.
"What's wrong?" Mingdu asked, somewhat annoyed, recalling Lin Chujiu's actions just now.
Hearing Mingdu's voice, Lin Chujiu came back to her senses and saw Mingdu looking at her with some impatience in his eyes.
Lin Chujiu felt that she was being annoying and tried her best to hold back her tears.
She has always been a crybaby since she was a child.
She would cry because the village children scolded her for not having a father, she would cry because she couldn't afford to buy things and was looked down upon by the shopkeeper, she would cry because she had worked hard in the entertainment industry for two years but couldn't earn enough to pay for her mother's medical expenses...
She has always been a crybaby. Despite enduring countless acts of malice from the world, she always seems to cry whenever she feels wronged, as if it's not a habit.
Moreover, aside from her mother, most people wouldn't tolerate her tears...
Lin Chujiu knew perfectly well that crying at this moment would only annoy people.
She blinked, her eyes red-rimmed, and gave a smile:
"nothing."
She said it casually.
Seeing Lin Chujiu's red eyes but still smiling at him, Mingdu realized that he had spoken too harshly.
She was probably under a lot of pressure and couldn't find any clues, which is why she cried.
Mingdu has been under a lot of pressure lately, and he is eager to resolve the issue at Linhai University, which is why he is feeling annoyed.
He realized he had just been a little angry with Lin Chujiu, and his feelings were instantly mixed.
His dislike for Jiang Chaoyu led him to have a preconceived notion about Lin Chujiu, but after spending the last two days with her, he realized that Lin Chujiu wasn't as bad as he had imagined.
Apologizing is a bit awkward, and as the Crown Prince of the Dragon King's Palace, it's impossible for him to apologize, but his father said that his attitude can be changed.
Thinking of this, Mingdu's tone softened a bit, "Let's think about where we can hide the body."
Seemingly aware of Lin Chujiu's concerns, he added:
"I'll look for it with you."
None of the monsters in this school can beat me.
He didn't say those words aloud.
Lin Chujiu was overjoyed after hearing this.
She knew that Mingdu was very powerful, and with Mingdu's help, finding the corpse would be much easier for her.
Lin Chujiu smiled, and in that instant, her smile was like a pear blossom in spring rain.
Mingdu was stunned. He blushed slightly and cursed her under his breath again, calling her a vixen.
“It’s impossible to hide it in the library; there are many students and staff coming and going here.”
Lin Chujiu recalled and analyzed the school map in her mind.
For some reason, Lin Chujiu always felt that the shape of this school looked like a tomb.
Mingdu chimed in, "The cafeteria is out of the question too."
Upon hearing the word "cafeteria," a bold guess arose in Lin Chujiu's mind.
She trembled: "Do you think the school will dismember Yu Xuan and make her into mincemeat for the students to eat?"
She didn't get any meat in the last dungeon and was starving.
Lin Chujiu was very happy because her school meal card was full and she ate a lot of meat.
The thought that the meat might be Yu Xuan made Lin Chujiu's stomach churn.
Mingdu paused for two seconds, seemingly somewhat admiring Lin Chujiu's imagination, and then said:
“I’ve already considered what you’re saying. I’ve had people keeping an eye on the cafeteria for the past two days, just in case this happens.”
After all, given how ruthless this school is, they really could do something like this.
Lin Chujiu then felt her stomach was a little better.
She leaned against the windowsill, trying to catch her breath: "It can't be the student classrooms, so it must be the administration building or something like that."
"The most dangerous place is the safest place."
There is only one truth.
That should be the principal's office!
Lin Chujiu kept pushing the issue further and further, eventually arriving at this conclusion.
"The principal's office?" Mingdu asked, somewhat puzzled. "But why would you hide something there?"
Who would have the time to hide a corpse so close to them?
Don't say that humans have small hearts and can't handle it; even they, the supernatural, are very wary of it!
Lin Chujiu smiled mysteriously, "Don't be so narrow-minded. It doesn't necessarily have to be in the principal's office. It can also be somewhere close to the principal."
She wiggled her feet, trying to find a more comfortable position for herself.
"Is there any place that I can be close to him without being discovered by you, my boss, and stay safely under his nose?"
She tried to guide the soul across to the underworld.
Mingdu suddenly realized.
He has always been hardcore in his methods. His immense strength makes him dislike thinking about tactics, believing that firepower coverage is sufficient.
Therefore, he always disliked Jiang Chaoyu's cunning and calculating demeanor.
Surprisingly, a different approach can solve a big problem.
He couldn't help but feel some admiration for Lin Chujiu.
However, the stubbornness of a strong person prevented him from speaking out.
Mingdu smiled slightly, a wicked smile curving his lips:
"Then let's hurry up and go. Let's go check it out first, so as not to alert them."
