Forced to Date a Big Shot - Chapter 554

Chapter 554: Who?

Tonight, the sky seemed to be covered in a layer of gray gauze. Huaxia University’s wall isolated the clamor in the city. Although there was an endless stream of students on both sides, there were very few people on this path.

Amid the quiet atmosphere, Xue Xi lowered her head and stared at her wrist with widened eyes.

She could clearly feel as though she had been caught by something. That thing was pulling at her forcefully, and it seemed to be heading toward a small garden that was empty…

Unfortunately, Xue Xi was too strong. That thing pulled hard but could not make her move.

A chill ran down Xue Xi’s spine. For some unknown reason, the image of Liu Zhao before she died where she was waving her arms on the rooftop as though she was speaking to the air appeared in her mind.

She stared at the empty space in front of her and felt as though someone was standing there.

Her voice sounded more nervous than usual. Her indifferent voice was filled with coldness as she slowly said, “Who?”

The other party seemed to be frightened. The strength in her wrist suddenly disappeared, and she seemed to have heard panicked footsteps.

Xue Xi looked in the direction of the voice. Although she could not see anyone or anything and could only see darkness in front of her, the grass on the path beside her was being pressed down by an invisible foot. Immediately, that foot rushed forward and disappeared at the intersection ahead.

Xue Xi clenched her jaw and chased after them.

Walking around the front, she saw a wide lawn. There were many people sitting on it. There were men and women having a gathering outside the dormitory. Not far away, there were also people walking in twos and threes. Among these people, she sensitively caught a petite and familiar back.

The figure turned a few corners and disappeared.

“Sister Xi? Sister Xi?”

On the other side of the call, Xie Yingying did not know what had happened. Seeing that she did not reply for a long time, she shouted twice before Xue Xi returned to her senses. She asked calmly, “Did the news department’s Fang Fang get arrested?”

“Fang Fang? Isn’t she missing?” Xie Yingying was confused. “You don’t care much about others, so you might not know. Just a few days ago, Fang Fang called the teacher to ask for leave. When the police went to look for her, they realized that she was missing. No one knows where she went, and they can’t find her.”

At this point, Xie Yingying’s voice became softer. “Sister Xi, everyone is saying that this is similar to how a female university student from a certain university went missing. However, they eventually found her corpse, which had been mutilated. It was very scary. Now, everyone is saying that Fang Fang might have been killed too.”

Fang Fang was not harmed.

However, Jing Fei saw her face that day and she went to the club. Xue Xi then parted ways with the people in the club.

It was not surprising that Jing Fei would look for Fang Fang again. Hence, Fang Fang must have hidden herself.

Where could she be hiding?

Xue Xi quickly thought of a place and said to Xie Yingying, “Sleep early. I’m hanging up.”

…

After hanging up, Xue Xi walked toward the clubroom.

This was originally a school building, but it became dilapidated later on, so it was made into an activity room. Although it was nighttime, university life was exuberant. At this moment, the first and second floors were still brightly lit.

Xue Xi entered the activity building and pressed down on her baseball cap. She avoided the crowd and slowly walked in.

At this moment, at the staircase beside the first floor, someone was filming a short video and was planning to post it online to attract fans.

A handsome little brother in black jumped up.

Immediately, he quickly took off his jacket and pieced it together. He casually let go during the filming and the jacket fell to the ground.

“Done!”

The girl beside her shouted and everyone moved over.

Some computer experts started to create late-stage special effects, making it look as though the person in the clothes had suddenly disappeared.

After the video was done, the girl touched her chin and stared at the video. “Our special effects should be the very best in the country, right? But if you look closely, the clothes are still too tight. It doesn’t seem like someone is wearing them. It’s just that it happened fast, so ordinary people can’t tell. If you slow down a frame, you’ll notice the problem.

“It doesn’t look like the prince’s TikTok. He can do it perfectly. First, he’ll take off his upper body, and then the special effect on his upper body will make it disappear. It’s really awesome, making it seem as though he’s really invisible. I’ve contacted their team on TikTok, but they never replied to me and never accepted any business partnerships. His video is really popular, sigh!”

Xue Xi happened to pass by her when she said this. When she heard this, she paused.

Then, as though she had thought of something, she lowered her head and walked forward.

When she reached the 18th floor, she circled around and finally found a room. This room seemed to be an abandoned provision room, and no one paid attention to it. However, when she pushed open the door, she saw a staircase leading to the 19th floor.

The moment Xue Xi stepped on the stairs, she hesitated.

Jing Fei had once captured Fang Fang.

Jing Fei was a police officer and a good person.

Yu Da and Fang Fang killed Liu Zhao on behalf of the heavens.

She did not agree with the self-righteousness of the members of the Justice Society, but she had actually hesitated.

In this society, such things were neither black nor white.

Their group’s existence might also have a meaning.

Hence, the decision she’d made back then was to let them walk down the path that they thought was the right path while she would never return.

Today, once she reached the 19th level, she would no longer be unrelated to this club.

Was it worth doing this for these few people whom she had only met a few times?

Xue Xi quietly stood at the staircase and looked up.

In her mind, the faces of Yu Da and Fang Fang appeared. She recalled the tips these people gave her in the live-stream today.

In the end, she picked up her phone and called Jing Fei.

Jing Fei picked up the call quickly. “Sister Xi, you actually called me. What’s the matter?”

Xue Xi replied very straightforwardly, “Yu Da and the rest were captured by you, right?”

Jing Fei was stunned, but he did not stop her. “Yes, I did. There’s also that Fang Fang that you saw last time. The two of them plotted a murder and the evidence is conclusive. What’s wrong?”

The evidence was conclusive.

Xue Xi paused and asked, “What will the verdict be?”

Jing Fei said, “The main culprit is Yu Da. If he doesn’t get a death sentence, it’ll be a life sentence. The rest of the accomplices might be imprisoned for life. There’s also Fang Fang, who escaped outside. Sister Xi, these people are dangerous. If you meet them, you have to stay away from them!”

Xue Xi’s heart sank. It was as though a stone was pressing on her chest and blocking it.

Death sentence or life imprisonment.

Too heavy.

Just as she was about to say something, there was a sudden movement behind her.

She tensed up and pricked up her ears. She could hear faint footsteps behind her slowly approaching. She turned around abruptly and saw…
