Xia Xiaoyu was stunned. Indeed, this matter had little to do with her; the only connection was that she was sleeping in the same bed where Wang Xiaojia once slept. She could easily wash her hands of it. Xia Xiaoyu believed that this incident would pass without affecting her at all.
But what about Wang Xiaojia?
How did she die? Why did she linger at the University? Why did she harm others? She must have felt wronged.
"No, if I don't help her, no one will ever know about Wang Xiaojia. This is unfair to her. I need to uncover the truth. I will record some images and hand over the evidence to the police. But even if the police refuse to investigate, I will still look into it. If I don't help her, the answers will remain unknown, and that is unfair to her. At the very least, she deserves justice..."
Xia Xiaoyu said resolutely.
"Alright..." Zifeng was not surprised by Xia Xiaoyu's response, as if he had already anticipated it.
"I will lift the curse on the well in Qingshui Village so that her parents can enter reincarnation. However, finding her body remains a problem..." Zifeng looked up at Xia Xiaoyu and asked, "By the way, how did you end up at Ouhai Cemetery?"
"It was Lin Xi's grandparents who lured me there; her soul has disappeared... and there are four others whose souls also vanished after death..."
"Mm..." Zifeng lightly tapped his fingers on the computer desk, his brow furrowed in thought.
"Can you...?" Xia Xiaoyu hesitated to speak, her voice hesitant, but before she could finish, Zifeng interjected.
"I will do my best to find their souls..."
"Um, I'll call Xu Qian..."
Xia Xiaoyu said this and couldn't wait to tell Xu Qian about the matter.
Xu Qian didn't have much to say either; it was hard to explain everything over the phone. Xia Xiaoyu agreed on a meeting place with her and hung up.
After saying goodbye to Zifeng and leaving his place, it was already close to nine in the evening. Xia Xiaoyu took a taxi directly to the agreed location with Xu Qian.
It went smoothly. This time, Xia Xiaoyu shared everything that had happened with Xu Qian, who readily agreed to help. He mentioned that he had a friend who was part of the lawyer association in the relevant department, which carried a lot of weight. He promised to speak to him first thing in the morning.
That's what true friends are like. Xia Xiaoyu knew that Xu Qian was indeed a lifelong friend worth having; he had helped her so much and had been incredibly generous.
Xu Qian drove Xia Xiaoyu back to the University, and it was nearly ten o'clock by then.
The campus was quiet, but perhaps because she had fulfilled a wish, this time, Xia Xiaoyu felt less afraid. At least she had done her best for Wang Xiaojia.
As she passed under the Red Cherry Blossom Tree, Xia Xiaoyu couldn't help but glance at it. However, this time she didn't see the figure in white beneath the tree. In fact, since the incident at the Boys' Dormitory in the University, she hadn't seen her at all.
That was why Xia Xiaoyu concluded that Wang Xiaojia hadn't come to the University for no reason.
When she returned to the dormitory, everyone was there. They were initially shocked to see Xia Xiaoyu back but soon bombarded her with questions. By the time they settled down for bed, it was already close to midnight.
Everything felt so peaceful, as if nothing had ever happened.
The cool moonlight streaming through the window brought a hint of chill to Xia Xiaoyu's heart. She turned her head and found a comfortable sleeping position, but just then, she noticed the Pink Panther resting in one corner of the bed.
Suddenly, she thought of Cao Bao!
She remembered that ever since he bought her this Pink Panther, he had become very indifferent, his demeanor stern; he was no longer the honest and simple Cao Bao she once knew.
But why had he changed like this?
