Chapter 384: Four Disappearances

The two of them decisively left Jiang Xuyan and the other two and headed to the activity room of the Mystery Club.
The lights in the activity room were on, and there was nothing else other than the sound of flipping books.
Just as Song Qingyou had speculated, the activity room was their “stronghold”. The men in black wouldn’t break in to capture them. This was equivalent to their “safe zone.”
A few men in black were still waiting outside the activity room, ready to take the two of them away at any time.
Fortunately, Xu Xingzhou and Shu Ling were able to “live up to expectations” and returned the key.
Yu Muhuai went out to take a look. “They’ve all left. Should we go back first?”
Song Qingyou looked at the time.
It was nine o’clock in the evening. It was still early.
“Teacher Jiang and the others should have thought of coming here. Let’s wait for a while.”
“Yes.”
Yu Muhuai nodded and picked up the newspapers and magazines on the table to continue reading.
Song Qingyou browsed through the text very quickly, so the two of them had a tacit understanding of the division of labor. Song Qingyou was responsible for reading it first, and Yu Muhuai was responsible for checking and filling in the gaps so as not to skip any important information.
Yu Muhuai didn’t believe Song Qingyou.
It wasn’t that he didn’t trust her ability, but rather, he didn’t trust Song Qingyou’s position in the game.
Because there was too much information, if Song Qingyou said that she had read it once, the others probably wouldn’t read it again.
In this way, they would never win if they missed out on the information.
Of course, Song Qingyou herself felt that as a half-NPC, she couldn’t let others get nothing and then lose completely.
Besides, she didn’t want Yu Muhuai to have a hold on her.
Therefore, she was quite proactive in recording the information. She wrote down almost everything that was useful.
After a while, footsteps came from outside the activity room.
Song Qingyou and Yu Muhuai looked indifferent, but they were actually very vigilant.
Until he heard Xu Xingzhou’s voice, “You two have been here all this time?”
The two of them looked up and said in unison, “Yes.”
Shu Ling found a seat and sat down. “Did you hear Ying Nan and the others?”
Song Qingyou nodded.” I’ve heard it a few times. They must have been scared out of their wits.”
Shu Ling said,” They went to the teaching building. Wei, the security guard even locked the door. I think there’s something scary inside.”
“How tragic.”
“Yes, 1 am.”
The few of them sighed and looked at each other. Then, they laughed without any camaraderie.
Shu Ling and Xu Xingzhou rested for less than a minute before they were also given a stack of newspapers.
After Jiang Xuyan and the other two went through all kinds of hardships to get to the activity room, they saw the four of them quietly reading newspapers and magazines.
Those who didn’t know better would think that they had accidentally entered some self-study room.
Tang Zinian’s face was full of tears. “This is so unfair. The three of us are locked in the teaching building, and you guys can just sit there and not move!” Jiang Xuyan sighed.
He didn’t even have the energy to make cold jokes.
Zhao Yingnan didn’t even greet him tonight.
The three of them looked exhausted.
The body is tired, the heart is even more tired.
Shu Ling handed the three of them water.
Song Qingyou knocked on the table. “Muhuai and 1 found some information. Since everyone is here, let’s discuss it.”
“First, the murder case.”
“Among the murder cases that we found, other than the one where the teacher from the Food Science Department was poisoned, there was another case that was related to the sculpture at the school gate. The night before the case, a student saw a corpse hanging from the red maple tree, so he called the teacher and the police. However, when a group of people arrived, the corpse had already disappeared. The next day, a murder case was committed by the sculpture, but there were no signs of strangulation on the neck of the corpse under the sculpture.”
Shu Ling frowned. “Then we can’t be sure that the two bodies are the same person.”
Song Qingyou nodded. “And we can’t be sure how many murders there are.”
“And what we saw under the maple tree earlier…”
He wanted to say something but stopped, but everyone knew what he was talking about.
“You mean there will be a murder tomorrow?” Jiang Xuyan said, “Was the red maple tree a warning made by the murderer?”
“I can’t rule out this possibility.”
Their discussion was fruitless and they decided to wait until tomorrow to see the situation.
“Other than the murder cases, there are also a few missing persons cases.”
Song Qingyou took out her notebook and pointed at the time written on it.
“The first case of disappearance happened three years ago. It was a student council member. His personal information doesn’t seem to have any problems. He used to be my follower and has a good relationship with the current student council president.”
“The second missing person case was also three years ago. This time, it was a girl who went missing. Her family was not well-off. It was said that her brother had a bad character and even borrowed money from a loan shark. Because he could not pay back the money, he wanted to use his sister to pay off the debt. The news said that she might have committed suicide…Also, after she went missing, her parents died in a car accident.”
“The third and fourth missing cases happened two years ago. There were three people who went missing, two of whom were members of the Mystery Club. The fifth missing case happened a year ago, and the missing person was a teacher.”
“After that, it was this year. This year, a member of the Mystery Club had a heart attack…The board of directors and I received threatening letters.”
After listening to Song Qingyou’s introduction, the group felt a headache.
Yu Muhuai looked down thoughtfully.” They’ve been missing for a year or two and still haven’t been found. Considering that there are murder cases involved, I don’t think we need to investigate human trafficking. So these six people should be the same as the previous two. They’re all gone.”
“In other words, there have been eight murders in this school in just three to four years? No wonder there are ghost stories.”
Yu Muhuai nodded and continued his analysis.
“I’m guessing that these six ghost story locations might be murder scenes.”
“The poisoned teacher must have found some clues and was silenced.”
Shu Ling suddenly understood.’Then, the murderer must be the two people who drank the same bottle of wine as the teacher.”
“Not just them.” Yu Muhuai put the bottle on the table and said in a low voice, “There are more than one or two murderers. There must be a murderer among us.”
“My scalp is numb.” Tang Zinian shivered for no reason.
“Since we might not even know our own identities, we should brainstorm and deduce the incident of teacher being poisoned.”
“I don’t have a clue.” Tang Zinian leaned on the table and looked at the wine bottle.
“Could there be a problem with the bottle cap? If the bottle cap is poisoned, the poison will enter the wine as long as it is covered.”
“The bottle cap is fine.” Yu Muhuai took out a photo. It was a detailed test report on the bottle.
Jiang Xuyan took out the case statement and read it again.
“The teacher opened the wine. After the two students poured a glass each, they returned the wine to the teacher. After that, the teacher drank two more glasses because he had to teach. During this period, the wine was on the podium. The wine that the teacher drank was also poured by him…”
“It can’t be that he poisoned himself,” Tang Zinian said in distress.
Yu Muhuai looked at Song Qingyou.
“Qingyou should have other thoughts?”
“When we were analyzing the case today, you didn’t seem to talk much..”
