Chapter 180: 179 City’s Number One Rascal (20) Third Update
It was Fu Jinyun.
"Where are you?" His tone sounded very steady, but Shaohua could sense the unease in his heart.
Shaohua narrowed her eyes, "S City."
There was a pause on the line before he said, "Come back."
This time, Shaohua did not respond. It seemed as if Fu Jinyun sighed deeply before he continued, "Master Zhou has just passed away, right here in S City."
His tone was very heavy, and Shaohua’s grip on her phone tightened.
Master Zhou, this person who was both a teacher and a friend to her.
Fu Jinyun seemed to know he couldn’t persuade her and did not continue to try, instead he hastily hung up the call.
Shaohua didn’t bother with him and went straight to the School. At the School, Master Zhou’s two apprentices were crying so hard they could barely catch their breath, "Master Ye, this is what master asked me to give you before he entered."
Master Zhou died because of this task; he had his suspicions about this lake before he went in.
What was given to Shaohua was very clear, it was a Seven Extremities Yin Locking Array. Master Zhou originally wanted to go in and see what was the nature of this place, but he had not expected the hostile energy of the Feng Shui Array to be so strong. It cost him his life.
Shaohua looked up, noting the dense, ink-like Yin Qi above Lover Lake.
She now understood the cause of Master Zhou’s death. It was not just the Seven Extremities Yin Locking Array; it also contained an extremely venomous Luck Transfer Method, transferring the fortune of the School to the person who set up the Array.
Shaohua took a deep breath. She did not go in directly but took off the Jade Pendant from her neck and placed it on a chain of stones by the lake.
The Principal and others only felt that the chill of the Yin Qi reduced by a lot the moment she put down the Jade Pendant.
"Set up a surveillance camera," Shaohua pointed to a spot.
"Master Ye, what should we do next?" The Principal asked with a trembling face, agreeing to her directive.
Shaohua’s expression remained very calm, "The Array is missing one person. The students of the School won’t be in danger for the next two days; we’ll wait for the person behind this."
The core of the Feng Shui Array rested with that person; finding that person would resolve the issue. However, before that, she had others to deal with.
The School kept the matter of the deaths very tightly concealed, and more people were focusing their attention on Shaohua.
Most were wondering if Shaohua, who hadn’t attended school for several months, had been struck by some misfortune or if she had been sent to a Mental Hospital.
Shaohua stayed in the staff dormitory arranged by the Principal, and the next morning someone came knocking on her door.
It was Fu Jinyun. She frowned, "Why are you here?"
Fu Jinyun pretended not to see her expression and walked inside on his own, "Just checking on how you’re ’kicking the bucket’... I mean... Shaohua, are you alright?"
In the end, he looked at Shaohua earnestly.
He knew that Shaohua had a good relationship with Master Zhou.
"I’m fine," Shaohua’s expression was so calm it was almost frightening, "You’ve also heard about this. Have you noticed any clues?"
At her words, Fu Jinyun’s fingers tightened.
"You should have guessed. The eight girls who died, their birthdays were all on the 15th day of the 7th lunar month," Shaohua said indifferently, "the same as mine. The Yin Locking Luck Transfer Array requires a large amount of Yin Qi. Even if I didn’t get involved, they would have found me."
"That won’t happen." Fu Jinyun glanced at her, his heart tightening, "This won’t happen to you."
Shaohua laughed, "Just kidding. I’m Shaohua, how could I be easily manipulated by others. Alright, you two wait here, I’m going downstairs to get some breakfast."
She didn’t expect, as she was opening the door to go downstairs, to see a deeply affectionate Cui Hao.
"Shaohua, I was wrong before. I heard from other students that you’re staying here," he said, looking at Shaohua’s expressionless face and revealing a hurt look in his eyes, "I don’t care if you’re mentally ill..."
"Fu Heng, get rid of him," Fu Jinyun glanced at Cui Hao and gave the order directly.
Fu Heng, a martial artist, tossed the still-struggling Cui Hao down the stairs like he was carrying a small chicken.
"Shaohua, do you really have to treat me this way? I know you’ve always hated me, but I hope you can forgive me..."
Shaohua said only one sentence, "Keep blabbering, and I’ll call security."
Fu Jinyun was there to help Shaohua because he knew the severity of Master Zhou’s demise. He paid no attention to Cui Hao.
Shaohua went downstairs to get breakfast, and the two then rushed to Master Zhou’s home to see him. They didn’t return until the day after.
Shaohua’s spirits were low the whole way; she could not believe Master Zhou had gone just like that.
"Are you okay?" Her weakness prompted Fu Jinyun to frown.
At the same time, some doubts arose in his heart.
Shaohua shook her head, "I’m fine. I just didn’t expect Master Zhou..."
Thinking of her relationship with Master Zhou, Fu Jinyun suppressed the doubts in his heart.
However, Shaohua was summoned by the police for questioning.
Cui Hao and Xun Yilin had gone missing.
No bodies were found and no video evidence.
Then suddenly, a video of Cui Hao appeared online, from the morning he had come looking for Shaohua.
The person who posted the video was clearly targeting Shaohua.
"Mentally ill and repudiating her boyfriend, she deserves to be abandoned. I guess the school hunk and his current girlfriend’s disappearance has something to do with her handiwork!"
"It’s clear, this crazy campus belle found a richer and more powerful boyfriend and came back for revenge. Tsk, such a woman is simply outrageous."
"..."
Because of the disappearance of Cui Hao and Xun Yilin, several pieces of evidence pointed toward Shaohua. That’s why the police brought Shaohua in for routine questioning, "The last place where Cui Hao and Xun Yilin vanished was Lover Lake, and the last person to appear on the surveillance footage was you."
"I say Team Leader, just take her back and keep her up for three days without sleep, and she’ll spill everything," one officer who had seen many such evasive cases suggested.
However, Shaohua was unfazed and even the Mayor and the Principal came to speak on her behalf.
The Captain of the district took a drag on his cigarette. Looking at Shaohua, his gaze was piercing, "I don’t believe in those feudal superstitions. Shaohua, even if you walk out today, it’s useless. One day I’ll find the evidence and arrest you myself."
Shaohua leaned back in her chair, her smile easygoing, "You’re not married yet, are you?"
For some reason, her words always had a magic that made people want to listen.
The Team Leader said unconsciously, "Not yet..."
"But your family has already set a wedding date for you, the 8th day of the first lunar month next year," Shaohua spoke indifferently, "Don’t look at me; in three seconds, your mother will call you."
The Team Leader snorted, unsure whether to laugh off the superstition, when his phone in his pocket rang. It was his mother calling.
After answering the call, he looked at Shaohua dumbfounded.
At that moment, a Security Guard entered from the door of the Interrogation Room, his face filled with horror, holding out his cellphone, "Team Leader, Cui Hao has appeared!"
