The next morning, I was still sleeping in the dormitory. I wasn't on duty today. Last night, I lost a lot of blood to feed Jessica. I really needed a good sleep to replenish my strength. However, not long after, someone knocked on the dormitory door. I was a little puzzled. I had only been at Ocean University for a few days. Who would come looking for me?
When I opened the door, my eyes were covered before I could see who it was.
Those who didn't know better would have thought that she had been kidnapped by a thief. However, from the other party's uncontrollable laughter, I could immediately tell that the person who had come wasn't a robber, but that little Daoist nun Li Xiangling.
"Guess who I am?" Li Xiangling teased me.
"You're a monster!"
" Haha…" It was Li Changtian's laughter.
Li Xiangling was unhappy and muttered," You're the monster. You only know how to bully me!”
I gently moved her hand away from my eyes." Stop fooling around. I was just joking. Who told you to scare me?"”
Li Xiangling walked into my room, looked around and said," I didn't expect you to really come here to be a security guard. I didn't believe it when Changtian told me. You should at least do some business or something. Isn't it a waste of your talent to be a security guard?!"”
"Changtian, didn't I tell you not to tell her that I'm here?”I turned around and complained to Li Changtian.
However, he was unable to speak." Big Brother Su Li, it's not that I want to say this, but this lady's legs have recovered. She can't stay still after she can walk. I said that you were going to the gates of hell, and she even asked me to open the gates of hell for her to go in and find you. Isn't this making things difficult for me? I had no choice but to tell the truth that you came to Ocean University. I can't really let her run to the gates of hell, right?“
Li Xiangling was indeed capable of such a thing. It seemed that Li Changtian was not to blame for leaking my whereabouts. However, I was only worried about her safety before. Now that she was well, and the ghost in Ocean University was just a poor girl, there should be no danger here, so I naturally didn't mind. And now, it was time to use people. With Chang Tian and Xiang Ling around, many things could be handled by everyone.
"By the way, Big Brother, you asked me to investigate Liu Xiaoquan and Little Lu's family. I already have a rough idea.”
Li Changtian was indeed very fast. He told me," In fact, the two families are doing the same thing. They are both running shipyards, which is the design and shipbuilding industry. However, Little Lu's shipyard is a big factory. The scale and capital are much better than Liu's." In the past, when Liu Xiaoquan's family's business ran into problems and almost went bankrupt, after Liu Xiaoquan got together with Little Lu, the girl's family would naturally help out a little. It could be considered as helping the Liu family tide over the difficulties. Although the two factories still worked for their own owners, they still cooperated in many places.”
If that's the case, then the reason why the two of them are together is worth discussing, especially Liu Xiaoquan. I keep feeling that he's not very interested in that girl, but he's trying his best to accommodate her. Perhaps it's because he needs to take care of his family's business!
Of course, it was only speculation at the moment. Perhaps they really had a good relationship. As for the shipyard, it was just a coincidence. More investigation was needed.
At this moment, my phone rang. It was the security guard.
"Hello, Little Su, are you up yet?”It was indeed the uncle's voice.
"Yes, I just woke up. Is there anything you need from me?”
"I'm not. There's a guy who wants you to look for him. He said that you know him, but he doesn't know your number, so he asked me to contact you.”The uncle paused for a moment before continuing," Oh right, he said his surname is Liu.”
So it was Liu Xiaoquan. Since he took the initiative to look for me so early in the morning, it must have something to do with the matter I went to ask yesterday. I immediately perked up and asked him to meet me by the lake. It was daytime now, so there were no ghosts there and the environment was quite good. However, I could understand why Liu Xiaoquan insisted on not agreeing to it. After thinking about it, it would be better to hide in my dormitory.
The tall and thin Liu Xiaoquan arrived as promised. He walked through the door and was surprised to find that there were two other people here besides me. He wanted to leave again, but I stopped him.
"Don't worry, they're both my confidants. They won't tell anyone. Did you come today to understand my question last night and tell me something?”I wanted to calm him down. I could tell that although he had mustered up the courage to look for me, he still had many concerns.
He raised his head and hesitated for a moment before asking me," May I ask who you are? And what was his relationship with Lili? Why did you only come to me after three years?”
'Good heavens, you actually asked me first. I can't say that I was asked by the female ghost, right? Wouldn't that scare her away?' So, I made up a story, saying that we were all members of a detective agency. We heard the story of Feng Lili's death by chance and felt that something was wrong, so we investigated. I also disguised myself as a security guard and sneaked into the school.
"Then what did you find out?”Liu Xiaoquan nervously asked.
"On the night of Feng Lili's death, you were the one she wanted to meet, but you didn't go to the lake. In the past three years, you never went back, nor did you share your story with Feng Lili. It was as if she didn't exist in your life at all. So, I'm really curious. Your first love died just like that, but you didn't do anything. Is this normal?”
Liu Xiaoquan remained silent. He seemed to be in great pain. His fists were clenched tightly, and the veins on his face were bulging.
He seemed to be thinking, blaming himself, and running away. However, there was one thing I didn't notice from his expression, and that was fear. If he was the murderer, he would have a guilty conscience if he mentioned the person he killed in front of a murderer.
After a while, he finally opened his mouth and asked me a very strange question." Since you're a detective, can you tell me if I killed Lili?”
"What did you say?" Li Xiangling couldn't help but blurt out," Hey, are you out of your mind? Don't you know if you've killed anyone or not?”
Liu Xiaoquan looked at her helplessly. He actually replied that he really didn't know. This was really like seeing a ghost!
This was also the first time I had met with such a question. If he killed me, then he killed me. If he didn't kill me, then he didn't kill me. Unless he was suffering from schizophrenia, how could he not know if he had committed a crime? According to Li Changtian's investigation, Liu Xiaoquan was introverted, but he had no history of mental illness.
I patted his shoulder and encouraged him," Xiaoquan, you must have known about Feng Lili's death. Now that three years have passed, I hope that you can tell me everything you know and not keep it in your heart. That will make you feel bad, right?”
He nodded slightly, indicating his acquiescence.
"Let me put it this way. I can answer your question. You didn't kill Feng Lili. Otherwise, we wouldn't have come to you directly.”
"What is it? You said I didn't kill him? How did you know?" Liu Xiaoquan still didn't understand the situation.
"It's very simple. We've investigated. You didn't go to the lake that night, and you weren't even in school. So, you have sufficient alibi. You're definitely not the criminal who pushed Feng Lili into the water.”I placed this conclusion in front of him.
However, Liu Xiaoquan didn't appreciate his kindness. He replied with a sobbing tone," No, it's because I didn't go there that she was killed by me!”
This kid was really shocking. His words were getting more and more ridiculous. It was fine if he didn't know if he had killed anyone, but now he said that he had killed Feng Lili without going to the lake. Wasn't this a fool's dream?
Then, Liu Xiaoquan sadly explained what he had said.
In reality, their relationship at that time was actually very good. The sweetness of their first love had caused both of them to sink deeply into it. However, Liu Xiaoquan's family was in huge trouble. The shipyard that his parents operated was on the verge of closing down. It was the hard work of his family for half their lives. Seeing his parents 'hair turn white overnight, Liu Xiaoquan really wanted to do something for them. At that time, he went to look for Little Lu.
The Little Lu Family's shipyard was very outstanding and had always been a competitor of the Liu Family. The crisis that time was mostly caused by the Lu Family seizing market share. Little Lu had been pursuing Liu Xiaoquan all this while. He thought that Liu Xiaoquan was pretty good looking, and more importantly, he was a warm and caring man. This made Little Lu, who had grown up under the bright lights and green willows, feel a sense of warmth and reliance, so he had high hopes for Liu Xiaoquan.
However, Liu Xiaoquan didn't like Little Lu because Little Lu's young mistress had a very overbearing temper. Moreover, he didn't like to frequent nightclubs and bars, so he couldn't accept his girlfriend going there. Therefore, he rejected Little Lu. Later on, he met Feng Lili, and the two of them quickly got together.
Even so, Little Lu had never given up on Liu Xiaoquan. Especially when he saw how much care he took for Feng Lili, it made Little Lu feel that this man was a reliable partner. Thus, he had never cut off contact with Liu Xiaoquan.
Liu Xiaoquan was a loyal person. After he had Feng Lili, he didn't want to have anything to do with her anymore. However, his family's business had to compete with the Lu family from time to time. As the only son of the Liu family, Liu Xiaoquan often helped out, so he had never completely left Little Lu's sight.
When the Liu Family's shipyard was in a desperate situation, the Liu Family's parents, who had long known that Little Lu was interested in their son, had no choice but to beg their son to look for Little Lu so that the Lu Family could save the Liu Family from danger. Faced with his parents 'pleas and their increasingly aged faces, Liu Xiaoquan could only abandon his dignity and defy his own wishes as he went to negotiate with Little Lu.
Little Lu was really a woman who didn't care about the past. She was very excited about Liu Xiaoquan's change of heart. She immediately agreed to ask her family members to save the Liu family's business. However, she made a condition that Liu Xiaoquan still believed had caused Feng Lili's death!
