Chapter 1235: Beautiful Music (32)
“Wei Yaxuan is Yu Shen’s cousin. Someone heard Wei Yaxuan quarrel with the girl beside Yu Shen, right? Isn’t she the most suspicious?”
This question still got raised by someone.
Everyone looked at Ming Shu.
Ming Shu wanted to take the blame but Yu Shen suddenly stood up.
“Yinyin was with me all the time. My bodyguards can be my witness.”
“Your bodyguards listen to you.” Some mutant didn’t like Yu Shen so they refuted him.
“I don’t think so. Wei Yaxuan and Yu Shen are cousins. Why would he harm her?”
“Yeah... don’t randomly say things.”
“His cousin is dead but he still appears so indifferent. Is this how he should react? Maybe the two of them killed her together.”
“This is such an irresponsible thing to say...”
The two parties argued furiously. Fu Yubo shouted a few times before they kept quiet.
“According to the surveillance camera on the island, we predicted that the time of Wei Yaxuan’s death was around 3 PM. Young Master Yu was at the beach during this time. There were many other people on the beach. They can be his witness.”
The surveillance camera and the mutants could prove their innocence.
Those people that attacked Yu Shen just now stopped talking.
Fu Yubo said, “Has anyone seen Wei Yaxuan after breakfast?”
After breakfast, everyone spread around the island. It was not a huge island so as long as Wei Yaxuan didn’t go to some secluded and forbidden area, someone should have seen her.
“There are surveillance cameras, right? Why don’t you all check the surveillance cameras?”
“Right. You didn’t say anything about surveillance cameras just now.”
Fu Yubo spoke about the surveillance camera images when he was speaking up for Yu Shen.
Before this, he didn’t say anything about it.
“The surveillance cameras are placed at the major locations on the island. There are no cameras on the small roads and recreation spots.”
Fu Yubo explained to the crowd patiently.
They had already checked the surveillance cameras. After breakfast, Wei Yaxuan walked on a small path. After that, she never reappeared.
“Well...”
Someone raised his hand. The crowd cleared a path for him.
A man walked out. His body was tense and he looked afraid.
“I saw the girl fighting with another girl this afternoon.”
Fu Yubo immediately asked, “Girl? Who?”
The man scanned the crowd timidly before slowly pointing to someone.
“Her.”
Everyone followed the man’s finger and saw the girl standing in a corner.
Yi Jiaojiao got a shock. She didn’t expect someone to see her.
That place was so secluded.
“Miss Yi?”
Yi Jiaojiao regained her senses. She looked at the people staring at her and replied, “I did have a fight with Wei Yaxuan, but we were just learning from each other. When I left, she was still alive.”
During their free time, mutants could seek other mutants to spar. Hence, Yi Jiaojiao’s reason was valid.
Fu Yubo looked at her sharply. “Why didn’t you say this just now?”
Yi Jiaojiao paused. “Wei Yaxuan is dead. If I told you that I encountered her, I’d be creating trouble for myself.”
Normal people would think this way. No one was willing to make things difficult for themselves. They’d rather hide the facts and hope that no one would find them out.
Yi Jiaojiao had to make sure she cleared herself.
It was hard to tell what Fu Yubo was thinking based on his expression. This was his job so he asked, “May I ask where you were at 3 PM? Can anyone be your witness?”
Yi Jiaojiao replied quickly. “Yes, Mr. Zhou can be my witness.”
Mr. Zhou quickly came out of the crowd.
He nodded. “I had lunch with Miss Yi. After that, we never left the villa.”
Fu Yubo asked a few more questions, but Yi Jiaojiao managed to answer them properly.
She wanted to frame Ming Shu at the start, but since the timing was not right, she gave up this plan.
...
The suspects were cleared of their suspicion so the case came to a standstill again. Who on earth killed Wei Yaxuan?
In the end, Fu Yubo had to ask everyone about their whereabouts during the crime and whether they had witnesses to prove their innocence.
Everyone seemed to be innocent.
Time passed slowly. It was almost midnight.
The people from the administration didn’t find anything after looking at the crime scene and searching the island.
Fu Yubo could only let everyone return to their villas.
On her way back, Ming Shu talked to the Harmony System.
The Harmony System would always answer her if it had something to do with Hatred Points.
[It has something to do with her, but she didn’t kill Wei Yuxuan.]
It was related to Yi Jiaojiao... but she was not the murderer.
Ming Shu fell into deep thought. Suddenly, she said to her chef, “Let’s have supper!”
Zhuang Mengmeng: “???”
[...] This is your conclusion after thinking so much?
Ming Shu expressed that she needed to eat so that she would have the energy to gain Hatred Points.
...
Fu Yubo didn’t return to his villa. Zhuang Mengmeng was scared so Ming Shu brought her to their villa.
Yu Shen was slightly unhappy, but he didn’t say anything. He just glared at Zhuang Mengmeng.
Zhuang Mengmeng got nervous from the stares, but she refused to leave this house that was full of bodyguards.
Last time, she felt that the bodyguards were frightening. Now, she found them cute. They gave her a sense of security.
Yu Shen pulled Ming Shu to their room. “The bodyguards will settle this. You don’t have to care.
“Yes...”
How should I evade this little demon later?
Knock him unconscious or drug him?
Which option is better...
In the end, Ming Shu chose to drug him. She would be found out if she knocked him unconscious.
Ming Shu got some medicine which didn’t have side effects from the Harmony System. After Yu Shen fell asleep, she jumped out of the window.
The bodyguard outside seemed to have noticed someone. Ming Shu quickly hid. The bodyguard walked one round and left with a puzzled expression. After he walked a few steps away, he suddenly looked back.
Ming Shu: “...”
Such bodyguards should be heavily rewarded.
Yi Jiaojiao lived in the same villa as Mr. Zhou. There were other people living in the villa. No one was sleeping after such a major event.
Ming Shu looked at a few rooms and managed to find Yi Jiaojiao’s room.
Yi Jiaojiao was in the room. However, the window was closed so she couldn’t see what was happening inside.
Ming Shu took Little Beastie out and coaxed it to go in with the promise of a complete Manchu-Han banquet.
Little Beastie shook its fur and scoffed.
It jumped to the side and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
She didn’t know how Little Beastie got into the room but she managed to figure out what was happening inside.
Yi Jiaojiao was alone in her room. However, she was preparing to leave secretly. She made to climb through the window where Ming Shu was at...
Ming Shu: “??!”
Ming Shu immediately moved aside. At the same time, Yi Jiaojiao opened the window and scanned her surroundings carefully. After confirming that it was safe, she jumped out and landed stably on the ground.
Little Beastie jumped onto Ming Shu.
Ming Shu squeezed it.
You did it on purpose, right!
Little Beastie struggled.
You owed me so many Man-Han full banquets. You lied to me!
