Chapter 56: Elusive and Enigmatic (1)

  "Knock knock knock." A pair of slender, well-defined hands rapped against a wooden door.

  The creaking sound, the wooden door was opened by someone, and a 20-year-old seductive woman appeared in front of Xianhuan. Her hair was messy, her hands were lazily wrapped around her chest, and she gazed at Xianhuan with sleepy eyes for a long time before asking with some anger:

  "Who are you?"

  "Miss Jiang Moli, I presume? Hello, I'm Zhang Xianhuan from the Criminal Investigation Unit of the Police Station. This is my ID. Today, I've come to ask you a few questions, Miss Jiang. Are you available to assist with our investigation now?" As he spoke, Xianhuan flashed a faint smile and pulled out his ID, mentally organizing the information they had gathered from last night's investigation.

  Last night, Xianhao had already checked and cleared the addresses, phone numbers, and personal information of all transfer students and transferred teachers registered in the form one by one.

  The 22-year-old Jiang Moli in front of him is an uneducated and promiscuous woman, who attended Xingren High School with Chen Xinran in the same year but different class. She had caused trouble for Chen Xinran multiple times due to personal emotional issues and was also the first person to discover Chen Xinran's body. Not long after that, she claimed that the school was haunted by Chen Xinran's ghost seeking revenge, and insisted on transferring schools. In Xianhuan's opinion, being afraid of ghosts means having a guilty conscience!

  "Police? What's going on?" Jiang Molli immediately perked up upon hearing it was the police, her eyes darting back and forth as she asked, thinking to herself that she hadn't done anything wrong recently, so why were the police showing up at her doorstep?

  "Can I go in and talk?" Xianhuan sighed helplessly.

  "Ah, come on in." Jiang Moli scratched the back of her head and went inside to throw aside the various undergarments and outerwear scattered on the sofa, then let Xianhuan sit down.

  Xianhuan didn't say much, looked around the room, it was a simple one-bedroom apartment, the interior was messy. He smiled wryly and shook his head, took out Chen Xinyan's information sheet from his briefcase and handed it to Jiang Moli, asking:

  "Take a look at the girl in this photo, do you know her?"

  Jiang Moli took the documents, but was startled by Chen Xinyan's photo and accidentally dropped the papers, letting out a cry of surprise.

  "What? Do you know her?" Xianhuan stared straight at her evasive eyes, pretending to be unaware, and asked.

  "No... I don't know!" Jiang Moli stuttered, loudly denying.

  "You're lying! As far as I know, five years ago you said Chen Xinyan stole your boyfriend and was always finding fault with her, wasn't that right?" Xianhao raised his voice to interrogate.

  Jiang Moli was speechless for a moment, and after a long time, she stammered out an answer:

  "It's not me! It's not me! It's her... she herself is cheap, it's not me!"

  Xian Huang was taken aback and furrowed his brow, asking:

  "What haven't you done?! It's better to confess everything from start to finish honestly, otherwise I'll take you away and put you in jail."

  Jiang Moli hastily waved her hand and was frightened. She absolutely did not want to stay in that dark and eerie prison cell!

  "Stop! Don't take me away to prison. I'm telling you, five years ago... my boyfriend fell in love with Chen Xinyan and broke up with me... I loved him so much, so I also hated Chen Xinyan, causing her trouble everywhere, humiliating her. Who knew that just a few days later, she would die in the bathroom? And I... I happened to see it! In the following nights, I had nightmares every night, dreaming of her coming to find me and demand my life! Her death really wasn't my fault! How was I supposed to know she would be so weak and commit suicide?! I really didn't mean for her to die... Really, it wasn't my fault!" After that, Jiang Moli's emotions became more and more agitated, repeating "it wasn't me" "it wasn't me" incoherently.
