Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“Have you heard? Tan Jing is dead.” Early in the morning, the students in school were discussing the matter of the dead. They did not feel that it was scary.
“I heard that he died in an unfinished building.” A classmate said, “My aunt would pass by that place when she went to work. She said that the area had been cordoned off. Other than the police, no one could get close. Because of this, my aunt took a detour to work in the morning and was almost late.”
“I heard that a big boss wanted to invest in that unfinished building. In the end, Tan Jing’s body was found in the ruins. Coincidentally, there was a vertical steel bar under her, and then she was skewered.”
“Her brain matter flowed onto the ground and mixed with the blood. It was very disgusting.”
A timid girl screamed and ran away. “Stop talking. It’s so scary!”
Tan Rou stopped listening after hearing a few sentences. Tan Jing had done many evil things. When she was alive, she wanted to stand out and become famous, but it did not come true. She would have never expected that she would again become the center of attention after her death.
When Tan Rou returned to class, she realized that the expressions of her classmates were very strange. Usually, when they came, they would share the recent gossip about Tan Jing and often laugh and say that she was really shameless. But now, all the students remained silent.
Although Tan Jing wasn’t a good person, she was still a classmate who had been with them for two years. When a living person suddenly died, the students couldn’t describe their feelings. They weren’t happy at all. Instead, they were a little sad.
“Xiao Rou, Tan Jing is actually dead.” The expression on Li Li’s face was also not very good. Although she hated Tan Jing and hoped that Tan Jing would be unlucky soon, she did not want Tan Jing to die. She felt that Tan Jing should have lived to repay her debts.
Tan Rou knew that Li Li was a kind-hearted girl and was also very emotional. They all said that the dead were the most important. No matter what Tan Jing had done in the past, now that she was dead, there was nothing to say. Moreover, Li Li had no grudge against Tan Jing. If Li Li celebrated Tan Jing’s death, she probably wouldn’t do it.
“Don’t think about it.” Tan Rou patted Li Li’s shoulder. “The police will find out the truth.”
“Yeah, I wasn’t the one who killed her anyway.” Li Li nodded.
Song Lin came in with a lunchbox. The principal didn’t allow him to go near Tan Rou, so he decided to wait until Tan Rou went to the toilet before putting the lunchbox on her table.
He Ling and Zhao Ru came over as soon as they entered. He Ling cried, “Song Lin, did you know? Jingjing is dead!”
When Song Lin heard this, the lunch box in his hand fell to the ground with a thud. He hurriedly squatted down to clean up the lunch box as he said, “What nonsense are you talking about? Tan Jing was definitely alive and well. She definitely wouldn’t die.”
Zhao Ru said, “The police found Jing Jing’s body in the unfinished building. At first, they said that she committed suicide by jumping off the building. But after investigation, they found many messy footprints on the balcony on the sixth floor where Jing Jing jumped off. They were all new footprints.”
“According to the police’s investigation, one set of footprints belonged to Jing Jing, but they had yet to find the other set of footprints.”
Song Lin looked very nervous. “So what if she’s dead? Do you want me to pay with my life?”
When he said this, Song Lin was frightened. He was afraid that others would find out that he had killed Tan Jing. If he had known earlier, he would have cleaned up his footprints before he left.
Tan Rou had been observing Song Lin’s expression. She realized that ever since he heard that Tan Jing was dead, his expression had become ugly.
She didn’t think that it was because Song Lin loved Tan Jing so much that he was so devastated after learning of Tan Jing’s death that he went crazy.
“Hurry up and go back for morning self-study! If Tan Jing is dead, then so be it. It has nothing to do with me.” Song Lin chased them away.
Zhao Ru was not satisfied with his attitude. “Song Lin, how can you be so heartless? Weren’t you head over heels for her? Why aren’t you sad at all now that she’s dead?”
Song Lin did not answer him. He walked to the door in a panic and threw the food he picked up into the trash can.
Tan Rou felt that Song Lin was very, very suspicious. Coincidentally, Zhuang Liu had been digging up information about Song Lin these past few days, so she sent the information she got to Zhuang Liu. “Song Lin’s expression was a little strange after hearing that Tan Jing was dead. Check and see if he knows anything..”
