Akasaka sat in the chair with his head lowered, truly resembling a defeated rooster as Chu Feifan had said. No, he was not a defeated rooster; if he hadn't voluntarily turned himself in, perhaps he would never have been caught at all. At this moment, he appeared completely desolate.
"Why did you voluntarily come forward to be caught?"
"This is a personal matter; I can choose to remain silent." He still kept his head down, but Su Jin'er could clearly see his body tremble slightly.
"Alright then! I want to know, was this whole thing planned by you from the beginning?"
"Yes!"
"But why would Grandpa Liu be willing to take the blame for you?"
"Because he feels guilty; he was involved in what happened five years ago. To put it bluntly, he's an old lecher."
Su Jin'er frowned, looking at Grandpa Liu, who seemed so kind. Was he really as Akasaka described? And what about Liu Jing? What was her reason?
"You want to ask about Liu Jing, right? Actually, what they told you before was not wrong. She is indeed the daughter adopted by your so-called Grandpa Liu, but she is also a murderer."
"A murderer?"
"Yes. When she was first adopted by your Grandpa Liu, she poisoned a little boy with rat poison. Because of this incident, she has nightmares every night. Later, when she met me, I helped her stop suffering from those nightmares. That's why she is grateful to me and willing to bear all the blame for her grandfather."
"Then why did she die later?"
"She committed suicide and also killed Li Yiqian and the others. She did this simply to show you that she was not the real Killer."
After saying this, he chuckled twice.
"Before Wu Nannan died, I had a dream where I saw the scene of Wu Nannan's car accident. How did you do that?"
"Do you know there is a method in psychology called Hypnosis?"
Su Jin'er nodded; how could she not know about it? Moreover, she had heard that some people could use Hypnosis to kill, but she had never seen it herself, only read about it.
"I have studied psychology, specifically Hypnosis, so it's quite simple for me to Hypnotize someone. That day, I had Zhang Yang knock you out and then Hypnotized you to erase your memory, while also implanting the scenario of how the accident would happen into your brain. It would be like you were dreaming, but in reality, it was all me telling you."
Can Hypnosis really reach such a level? She had never thought about it before. Although she had seen impressive Hypnosis techniques in the past, she believed they were merely fictional. Now that she was hearing it firsthand, should she believe it? Looking at Akasaka, who seemed to have aged ten years in an instant, she felt he had no reason to lie.
"I know you don't believe me, but do you think I have any reason to lie?"
Su Jin'er looked at him in surprise. How could he possibly know what she was thinking?
"Hehe! Now you should believe me! Because I can see through your thoughts," Akasaka said with a childlike grin.
"Can you really see through my thoughts?" She didn't believe it!
"The eyes are the windows to the soul, especially your expressive eyes. Just one glance at your eyes and I can guess what you're thinking."
After hearing his words, Su Jin'er felt a bit scared and lowered her head, unable to look into his eyes anymore.
"And what about that night when Li Yiqian seemed possessed and was licking the floor?"
"That's even simpler. Li Yiqian likes Chu Bufan, and I threatened her with Chu Bufan to make her do that. If she didn’t comply, I would kill Chu Bufan, so she went along with it."
Su Jin'er raised her head in astonishment. She thought he had used some sort of research technique for that; she didn't expect it was this. But wait!
"No way! I remember it was said that Li Yiqian liked her future brother-in-law, Li Ran, which is why she killed her sister Li Yiqing. How did it change to liking Chu Bufan now?"
"Ha ha! Actually, Li Yiqing did commit suicide, and her suicide was because of Li Ran. After she got accepted into university, Li Ran told her that the person he liked had always been Li Yiqian. That's why Li Yiqing took her own life. When Li Yiqian found out about this, she came to school to confront Li Ran. Later, she encountered Chu Bufan, who was running away, and developed feelings for him. However, she blamed Li Ran for her sister's death and wanted to take revenge on him. Coincidentally, I also needed help with something, so I assisted her in killing Li Ran to avenge her sister."
"No wonder Li Yiqian started investigating the cause of Li Yiqing's death as soon as she entered the school. Her strange behavior later was due to Akasaka's influence. Perhaps Akasaka was trying hard to push things toward a supernatural explanation, which led to rumors about Li Yiqing's ghost seeking vengeance. His goal was simply to see the students panic."
"Why did you kill Wu Nannan and Du Xiaonan?"
"Because I wanted to make everything more believable! I had to find suitable people to spread rumors, and Wu Nannan and her friend fit perfectly into that role. Only by making them die would you all believe it was a ghost seeking vengeance! Am I clever or what?"
"You are truly a psychopath. To satisfy your twisted desires, you killed so many people. Even if you died a thousand times or ten thousand times, it wouldn't make up for the debt you've incurred."
"Heh heh, I know you're most curious about Linyuan, but my answer will surely disappoint you because Linyuan's death was just an accident. I never intended to kill her; she was actually quite cute, single-minded and carefree about everything except your matters. However, she died because of Zuo Yi, which I truly didn't anticipate. The reason I didn't kill Zuo Yi is that he was doing it for the woman he loved. I've always admired passionate people; otherwise, Chu Feifan would have been dead long ago."
He spoke nonchalantly as if everyone's lives were at his whim; whoever he wanted dead simply could not live. It seemed he was even more powerful than the King of Hell. Su Jin'er scoffed!
"I know you don't believe me, but you've seen it yourself. If I hadn't deliberately let you catch me, you would never have found me. The reason you know I'm the Killer is also because I caught you."
"Wrong. In fact, I had already suspected you were the Killer before this. Although your disguise skills are impressive, my instincts don't lie. Do you remember the day we discovered Professor Zhang's body? I intentionally brought you along with us then because I suspected Professor Zhang might have been murdered. I just wanted to see how you'd perform. While your performance that day was flawless, I noticed that when you went upstairs, you deliberately slowed down your pace and pretended to be impatient. Most importantly, when you saw Professor Zhang's corpse, I noticed that Chu Feifan and Ruan Hongmei's faces turned pale for a moment while yours did not. Although you feigned terror, your complexion couldn't be faked."
"Ha ha! You're really observant; I can only admit that I've lost to you."
"No, you haven't failed; although I guessed it was you, I had no evidence. More importantly, I couldn't find your motive for murder and certainly didn't expect that you were Japanese."
Su Jin'er said helplessly; those were merely her own speculations while the police needed evidence—something she did not have to accuse him.
Outside the interrogation room, Chu Feifan and the others had been listening to their conversation. Captain Xing looked at Su Jin'er with admiration; she was truly clever. Although she suspected he was the Killer, she didn't rush to reveal it but instead sought strong evidence so as not to alert him.
Chu Feifan frowned: "When exactly did she start suspecting the janitor?"
Chu Feifan did not understand the question that Akasaka was also confused about, as he happened to be asking Su Jin'er.
"I remember the first time we went to find Professor Zhang, I had a strange feeling, but I couldn't quite put my finger on it. Every time we went to the teacher's dormitory, you would call us, but you never actually stopped us from going. At first, I thought you were just lazy, but it started to feel increasingly odd. Later, I discovered Xu Lingling's secret because she had always liked Chu Feifan and even declared war on me. Although I didn't pay much attention at the time, she became stranger and stranger. On the day she committed suicide, I was preoccupied with wondering why Xu Lingling suddenly went crazy. However, I inadvertently saw you hiding in the crowd. At first, I didn't think much of it, but your evasiveness made me start to suspect you. I didn't tell anyone about this because I didn't want to accuse anyone without any evidence."
"I have to admit you're very kind. However, what I want to tell you is that kindness is a good thing, but sometimes it can also harm you."
Su Jin'er was taken aback for a moment before she smiled and said, "Thank you for your warning, but I still have questions that I don't understand."
Akasaka shook his head and said, "Please ask."
"What’s the deal with that villa? Why could Chu Feifan and I get there while Zuo Yi and Xiaoyuan could not?"
"Because I used an illusion. At that time, you and Chu Feifan had actually already turned a corner; you just didn't realize it. The person who led you into the villa was none other than Zhang Jun. He placed a bit of the drug I was researching at the entrance of that path when you entered, creating an illusion that made you think you were walking straight ahead when in fact you had already turned. That place is Chu Feifan's father's abandoned villa, and the room you saw was prepared by his father for his mother. That photo was simply a picture of his father when he was young."
Standing outside, Chu Feifan clenched his fists in anger upon hearing this; it turned out everything was orchestrated by him, leading him to mistakenly believe his father was a killer.
