Chapter 1101: Smell of Crime

Chapter 1101: Smell of Crime

When Helian Weiwei heard this, she furrowed her thick eyebrows.

Since this girl treated her mother that way, was it more appropriate to say that the heavens decided to punish her?

“However, it seemed that something happened to her mother and she received a large sum of insurance money.” The girl continued, “After she received the insurance money, the first thing she did was to take this money to go for plastic surgery. We didn’t see her for three months. That day, she had just returned from plastic surgery and said that she wanted to go out and play together. She had already arranged everything, we could just go there directly.”

Helian Weiwei paused for a moment, “In other words, this trip was proposed by her?”

“Yes. ” The girl nodded, “We usually like to play, and it’s also her birthday, so we all went there. It’s just at a seaside not far from the capital. If we drive, we can come back within the same day. We drove two cars there and even brought a barbecue rack. We originally planned to spend two days there. We didn’t expect that something like that would happen.”

Helian Weiwei raised her eyebrows. “Then what did she look like after the plastic surgery? Was she very beautiful?”

“I don’t know.” The girl went ‘oh’ and explained, “Some areas had to be protected because she must not get those places infected, so she wore a mask all the time, and we could only see her eyes. But those eyes were quite beautiful, right? Yuan Wu?”

The boy named Yuan Wu nodded. “Mm, they were especially beautiful, and they looked a little like Tongtong’s eyes. To be honest, I like Tongtong’s eyes. It’s a pity that ever since she came back from the seaside, she hasn’t contacted us. Now she’s saying that she’s been followed by ghosts. It’s really worrying.”

When he got to this point, Yuan Wu hesitated for a moment, then looked at Helian Weiwei. “Tongtong won’t become the next one, right?”

“What?” Helian Weiwei was still thinking about what these two girls said just now, so her voice also slowed down a lot. “What next one?”

Yuan Wu wrung his hands. “That game is very strange. It says that we can exchange our lives for anything. Wu Taotao was the first to sign the contract, and in the end, she drowned that night. None of us knew what had happened, and she just suddenly disappeared. In the wee hours of the morning, we saw her face covered in scars floating on the surface of the sea, and the waves just hit the beach again and again. It was really extremely terrifying!”

“Come to think of it, after signing the contract, Wu Taotao also said that there seemed to be something staring at her. At that time, we were also extremely frightened by her. After playing one round, we didn’t play anymore. After that, we started playing Truth or Dare instead. We played until we fell asleep, probably because we had too much to drink. By the time we woke up, we discovered that everyone was still on the beach, but Taotao was already beyond saving.”

“You’re saying that you fell asleep while playing?” Helian Weiwei’s eyes flashed. “You didn’t even notice anything before that?”

Yuan Wu frowned and tried to recall. “That’s right. We seemed to have been manipulated by something that day, and parts of our memories are missing. That game was too problematic! So, please save Tong Tong so that she doesn’t become the next one!”

“I’ll try my best.”

To Helian Weiwei, the question that she cared about the most had yet to be answered.

Wu Taotao was clearly drowned.

But someone used a knife to cut her face, and even made sure that her face was beyond recognition.

Most people knew how awful a wound soaked in salt water would become.

Since someone did this to her face, the murderer was clearly jealous of her.

There might be many reasons for being jealous.

But the murderer’s thoughts were made clear when this person disfigured that girl’s face.

The murderer was jealous that the deceased was prettier than she was.

Many articles on criminal psychology had mentioned such things.

Women were the most unfathomable. Some people would even have a murderous intent in their hearts just because the other party was prettier than them.

This murderous intent only needed to occur at the right time and at the right place for it to fester, then it would completely erupt.

Therefore, this line of thinking was very important.

Helian Weiwei tried to ask again, “Have any of you seen Wu Taotao’s appearance after plastic surgery?”

“I haven’t seen it.” Yuan Wu said, “She wore a mask all night because she was just afraid that the sea breeze would get her face infected.”

The girl yawned, “If you ask me, I don’t see how she could be so delicate. Why wasn’t she afraid of getting an infection when she ate the grilled seafood at night then? Maybe it wasn’t done properly and she was afraid that we would see it.”

“It’s useless to say these things now.” Yuan Wu lowered his eyes. “I only hope that this nightmare can end as soon as possible.”

The other boy also nodded his head with deep sympathy. The atmosphere was somewhat heavy for a moment.

“By the way, who’s staying next door? Where’s he?”

But immediately after Helian Weiwei asked this question, a scream that was enough to cut through the torrential rain sounded from downstairs!

That scream was filled with fear.

Helian Weiwei’s first reaction was to run downstairs.

She ran as quickly as a gust of wind. The students left behind in the room were dumbfounded.

But everyone wanted to know what exactly happened.

What was that scream about?

The sounds of everyone heading downstairs even alarmed Old Master Song.

Helian Weiwei was the first to reach the first floor. She looked around and then quickly locked her gaze on the room where the witch, Li Ya, lived.

The door was locked from the inside.

The people who rushed over were still anxious. “The key! Go get the key!”

Helian Weiwei didn’t even think about it. She lifted a long leg and gave a good kick!

The door was kicked open by her!

Then they saw Li Ya sitting on the floor.

The crystal ball she was usually holding was shattered into pieces. She looked at the window and her whole face was so scared that it had lost all color. “There...there’s something there.”

Helian Weiwei followed her trembling fingers and looked over. She saw that in the pouring rain, a person was floating in the swimming pool in the backyard with his face facing down.

Helian Weiwei’s eyes shook and she immediately turned around!

However, it was already too late. That guy floating in the swimming pool clearly wasn’t breathing anymore. Otherwise, he would not be in this position.

The rain outside was so heavy that it was too difficult to see clearly so far out.

Also, the swimming pool was very big, and was quite a distance away. No one could clearly see who was floating in it.

When Old Master Song arrived and saw this, his expression sank and he quickly called the soldiers standing guard in the front yard to pull that person out of the water.

Only then did the people clearly see the appearance of that person.

“Master Wufan!” Li Ya stretched out her trembling hand and covered her mouth. “How could this be?!”

Helian Weiwei’s eyes also darkened.

This was a little too strange.

After all, even if someone was going to die, this master shouldn’t have become the target of attack, right?

Why kill him?

Helian Weiwei raised her eyebrows and looked at Baili Jiajue. “Is this what you meant when you said you smell the smell of crime?”
