The Anarchic Consort

Chapter 1084: Tsk, Who Says I Have No Evidence

When Guo Tingting reached this part, she snorted disdainfully. “After she received the phone from Zhao Xiaodong, she even came back to the hostel room and said to Jingtian and I, “Don’t you think this Zhao Xiaodong is really stupid? I’m so annoyed by him but he’s like a little puppy who can’t stop buying things for me. But he’s bought me good stuff, so when we eat together later, let him come along. He’s given me a present after all.””

“Did you hear that? ” Helian Weiwei tilted her head and met Zhao Xiaodong’s gaze once again as a devilish smile spread across her face. She wasn’t kind to begin with, and she was faced with this sort of case, so the methods she were going to be quite different from before.

Zhao Xiaodong’s entire face was dyed a deep red by the anger that welled up inside him. “Sichun wouldn’t talk like this! The only person who would talk like this is you, Guo Tingting!”

“Zhao Xiaodong, listen up. It’s true that I’m not a good person or anything, but at least I’m an authentic person. Your goddess Sichun, is the real slut here, ok?!” Guo Tingting folded her arms in disdain. “Jingtian was around as well, and she angrily told Dong Sichun not to play with others’ feelings like this. But your goddess wasn’t going to listen to that and just felt that you were nothing but a toad, and accepting your gift was like a gift from the gods to you. Didn’t you feel that way when you put up that post?”

“I can tell you now that Zhang Heng and I are the same sort of person! He didn’t have any regard for you, but at least we are humane. He said such things to you so that you would snap out of your blind infatuation, but in the end? You actually killed him!”

Guo Tingting practically shouted that last sentence and her face was covered with tears.

Zhao Xiaodong calmed down by this time, and he said with a fake smile, “Don’t talk about how noble you are. All of you only know how to look down on people from small towns. Also, there’s no evidence to prove that I’m a murderer. I’ve never killed anyone. Guo Tingting, you’re crying and shouting like this and you insist on saying that I’m a murderer. Then we can only see each other in court.”

As he spoke, he looked at Helian Weiwei. “This farce should end here. A few graduate students were fooled by a high school student, and made to suspect each other over nothing. That’s really enough. I thought you were some incredible fengshui master, but you’re just like those swindlers who have done a private investigation on us to pretend to be a real fortune teller. The Taobao shops these days are really getting worse and worse.”

After saying this, Zhao Xiaodong wanted to leave.

Helian Weiwei spoke again, and her voice was clear and powerful: “Who says there is no evidence to prove that you are the murderer? The walkie-talkie in your hand right now is the best evidence!”

Zhao Xiaodong shook, and his eyes became so intense that his pupils seemed to be clouding over.

He subconsciously clenched his left hand and turned his head around mockingly. “The shopkeeper gave me the walkie-talkie. You say this is evidence? I’ve really never heard of anything more ridiculous than this.”

“To be more precise, it’s a murder weapon.” Helian Weiwei walked towards him, and her long hair fluttered in the wind with an indescribably imposing manner. “I keep warning you not to make a move, but you didn’t even listen. You thought that I’m getting in your way, so you actually tried to kill my assistant. Mr. Zhao, I’m not going to let you off based on this alone!”

This was the first time the students and the shopkeeper saw Helian Weiwei display such a cold and unfeeling expression on her face. In that instant, it was as if her entire body was giving off a bloodthirsty smell.

From the moment they first saw her, this high school student had always kept a refreshing smile on her face.

They never would have thought that the murderous aura that covered her entire body would be so terrifying.

The anger of the ancient Phoenix wasn’t something that anyone could endure.

Zhao Xiaodong started to tremble uncontrollably, but he did not give up on defending himself. “Everything you’re saying now is filled with strong personal emotions. You’re biting me with such righteous indignation that you even made up the fact that this walkie-talkie can kill people. Never mind about going to court – even the police would not believe your words!”

“It looks like Mr. Zhao is behaving so arrogantly because you’re very sure that I couldn’t possibly have found out how you committed this murder,” scoffed Helian Weiwei. “It’s true that when I first entered the room, I couldn’t find anything that looked like a switch or a trigger. And so because the scene of the crime was so clean, even a murder in an enclosed room requires some sort of auxiliary tool to complete the crime.”

“I kept wondering what could possibly be the auxiliary tool, and then the shopkeeper said that the person who provided him the blueprint for this escape room included not only the mechanisms, but even what to say into the walkie-talkie. In most cases, once the various stages within the room have been set, the shopkeeper would be the one who decides on what hints are necessary after the construction of the room. In other words, normally the shopkeeper decides on this part, but the opposite happened for this particular case. And both the previous time and this time, you were the one who was holding onto the walkie-talkie.”

Zhao Xiaodong scoffed. “You’re really detailed and you just simply associate one thing with another. I like being the one holding the walkie-talkie when we’re inside an escape room and that’s enough for you to accuse me of being a murderer? What sort of logic is this? If this can be considered evidence, then anybody could be a murderer!”

“Of course, just being the one holding the walkie-talkie isn’t strong enough evidence.” Helian Weiwei smiled and unlocked her phone. She had picked up a video call and the screen showed an email attachment that had been sent out before. The two words ‘Sobbing House’ were written clearly in the file name!

“What if the design of this escape room was originally provided by you? Wouldn’t that be enough evidence to convict you of murder?”

Upon hearing this, Zhao Xiaodong’s back suddenly shook, and his ordinary and unremarkable face revealed panic for the first time!

Helian Weiwei’s smile was mischievous. “Come, Monkey, let Mr. Zhao see where you guys are at now.”

Monkey quickly moved aside from the camera and the scene on the phone not only caused Zhao Xiaodong’s face to pale.

Even the other three widened their eyes in disbelief!

That was the male dormitory of their school!

And it was the one meant for postgraduate students to live in!

How could Helian Weiwei’s informants be inside their school’s male dormitory?

Guo Tingting and Xiao Jingtian glanced at each other. They didn’t understand what was going on at all.

Behind Monkey was a cold and beautiful youth wearing a leather jacket.

The sound of something snapping could be heard from the phone!

“Hello? Hello? Boss, can you hear me? Shit, why is the signal so lousy? You know how dangerous it was just now? L almost had to pull a gun on someone but I managed to stop him in time. And then that stupid A and the rest dressed like a bunch of gangsters here to collect protection fees, but insisted that they looked like university students. They’re so bloody dumb…”
