Su Jin'er took out the photo to show Chu Feifan and asked if he had ever seen such a picture. He shook his head, saying he had never seen it before, but that pink room did indeed belong to his family.
"Can you take us to your house?" Captain Xing asked.
"Of course, you can visit, but if you want to see that room, I think that's impossible." Chu Feifan rubbed his forehead, having lost faith in his father. He really hoped these matters were not related to him, but if it was indeed his doing, what could his purpose be?
"Even if we do go, we need a reason," Su Jin'er said, looking towards the campus. Although all she could see were trees, she seemed to envision the youthful faces coming in and out of the campus, smiling. She wished she could be like them, able to cry or laugh without experiencing so much separation and loss.
Chu Feifan looked at Su Jin'er’s suddenly expressionless face and felt a wave of panic. If all of this was indeed his father's doing, his position would become very awkward, especially since the one who died was Linyuan!
"I still have some questions I don't understand, so I'd like everyone to help me think about them," Su Jin'er suddenly said softly. She had been pondering these issues but hadn't yet found the real answers.
"What questions?" Captain Xing straightened up.
"Captain Xing should remember when we were looking for Zhang Junsheng's diary, you asked me and Linyuan to wait in your car?"
"I remember! At that time, I even called Jiang Jie."
Jiang Jie nodded in confirmation.
"When Linyuan and I were in the car, a thick white mist suddenly filled it. Linyuan and I were sitting face to face and couldn't see each other's faces at all. Slowly, a layer of black mist rose in the back seat, darker than night. I thought it was an illusion, so I told Linyuan to close her eyes. But the illusion didn't disappear; instead, my eyelids grew heavier. When I finally opened my eyes again, I found a eyeball the size of an egg hanging in front of me, smiling at me. After that, I closed my eyes again and when I opened them once more, everything had vanished. Linyuan was sleeping and seemed to have seen nothing, but I clearly spoke with her."
By the time she finished speaking, her face was already covered in sweat as if she had gone through the same experience again.
"Are you sure it was in my car?"
"Yes, I'm sure. I believe it wasn't a dream or an illusion because when I woke up, I clearly saw several drops of congealed blood by my feet."
Captain Xing quickly stood up and opened the car door, surprised to find a few drops of blackened blood inside.
"How could this happen? Who is playing tricks? I've been a police officer for ten years and have never encountered such a bizarre case. The Killer has been leading us by the nose, and the clues we've found are all intentionally left for us by the Killer."
"How do you know that?" Chu Feifan asked curiously.
"Jin'er should remember that when we were looking for the diary, I kept looking at the tree where Zhang Junsheng was hanged. You mentioned that his eyes were wide open when he died, and his expression was twisted, as if he had been scared to death but also like he had been hanged. A person can't have two causes of death, so based on my experience, he must have been scared to death and then hung up afterward, with his tongue pulled out."
Su Jin'er frowned; she had never considered it this way. After someone died, their tongue was pulled out and then made to look like a hanging. But what exactly did he see that scared him to death?
"How many clues can we confirm now?" Chu Feifan also frowned. Regardless of whether these matters were related to his father, he needed to find the Killer and avenge Linyuan.
"First, we can confirm that Zhang Junsheng and Zhang Jun look exactly alike, so much so that even their parents can't tell them apart. Second, the brothers had a falling out over a girl named Dreamer."
As for other clues, she wasn't sure anymore; almost everyone related to this case was dead. They couldn't even start investigating. Even the person who just died—she couldn't be certain whether he was Zhang Junsheng or Zhang Jun. And that diary might just be a forged one.
"There's one more thing!" Chu Feifan said after thinking for a moment.
"What is it?" Su Jin'er and Captain Xing asked simultaneously.
"Both Zhang Jun and Zhang Junsheng attended our school; we just don't know which one is their true self. Perhaps the one from three years ago was the real Zhang Junsheng, or maybe the one who just died was the real Zhang Junsheng. But we have no way of figuring it out."
Wen Shishi?
"Wen Shishi should have died!"
That person's gritted teeth words suddenly echoed in Su Jin'er's mind. No matter who they were, those who hated Wen Shishi were the ones who attended school three years ago, and at that time, his name was Zhang Jun.
"I might be able to guess who they are," Su Jin'er said with a faint smile.
Chu Feifan and the others remained silent, waiting for Su Jin'er's speculation.
"I think everything started when they met Dreamer. They were originally good brothers, but then Dreamer entered their lives. Both brothers fell in love with Dreamer, and Dreamer might have liked one of them, which caused resentment in the other. As a result, revenge was taken. I believe the person Dreamer liked must be Zhang Jun."
"How do you figure that?"
"That diary is proof. It should belong to Zhang Junsheng. In reality, the seemingly obedient child may not be as innocent inside. At that time, Dreamer discovered Zhang Junsheng's true nature, so she chose the older brother. The younger brother then felt resentment and killed Dreamer, framing the older brother for it. This led to Zhang Jun's sudden disappearance three years ago. He didn't kill Zhang Jun; instead, he used a method to make him lose his memory and returned to this school three years later under the identity of Zhang Junsheng, while the real Zhang Junsheng manipulated everything from behind the scenes until Zhang Jun became his scapegoat."
After finishing her explanation, Su Jin'er let out a heavy sigh.
"But what was his purpose in doing this?"
Su Jin'er shook her head; all of this was just her speculation, and no one could answer whether the truth was indeed like that.
"Of course, this is just Zhang Junsheng's case. There is someone else pulling the strings, and that person is the true mastermind. As for Grandpa Liu, Zhang Junsheng, even Li Jing and Li Yiqian—they are merely pawns in that person's hands."
Su Jin'er's words made them all gasp in shock. To manipulate so many people and kill so many without being exposed—it was easy to imagine how intelligent this person must be.
"It seems we are facing a very tricky opponent, and this person's intentions must be terrifying," Captain Xing sighed. Compared to this case, previous ones seemed trivial.
"Don't be so tense; these are just my speculations and may not be accurate," Su Jin'er said somewhat shyly.
"Perhaps your speculation is correct. However, what puzzles me is how my room at home could be identical to the strange room in that villa we saw?"
"What if..." Su Jin'er said meaningfully.
"Sure, let's go now. My dad won't be home tonight."
"How do you know?" Captain Xing asked, puzzled.
"Today is Saturday; my dad is never home on this day."
"Alright, let's leave now." Su Jin'er stood up, determined to find out who was behind this and what their intentions were.
A few people immediately got into the car. Captain Xing stepped on the gas, and the vehicle sped forward. No one spoke along the way; each person was lost in their own thoughts.
Originally, there were four people in the dormitory, but now only Su Jin'er remained. In truth, she didn't dare to return to the dormitory. Just a moment ago, she had felt exhausted and wanted nothing more than to lie down and rest. However, she couldn't; being alone in the dormitory would suffocate her and make her miss Linyuan even more.
Thinking of Linyuan made her eyes well up again. Just a few hours ago, Linyuan had been talking to her normally. It was in this very car that she had panicked and woken the sleeping Linyuan, asking if she had been dreaming. In just a few short hours, they had been separated by life and death.
Her eyes felt sore and uncomfortable, and tears eventually streamed down her face. She closed her eyes, envisioning Linyuan's radiant smile and hearing her clear yet gentle voice.
