19th (4) Murder Suspect

  Who did I say?

  Fengyue said, I heard the quarrel in that room, it was their room, don't know what they were saying. But I heard it.

  I looked at Ai Ya, and everyone else also turned their heads to look at her. Ai Ya's face was pale, she said, "Nothing happened."

  At this time, Si Yao said, "Right, I seem to have heard it too, isn't that right, Shen Po?"

  Ai Ya's room is between Feng Yue and Si Yao's rooms. The godmother nodded and said, "Last night before going to bed, there was indeed some movement, it seemed like they were arguing."

  Ma Tiancheng walked over and stood beside me, glaring at Ai Ya and saying, "Why are you two arguing? Why didn't you speak up just now?"

  Her face turned green, she said, nothing, nothing. We just casually said a few words. She's dead, do I dare say anything?

  Ma Tiancheng said, what are you arguing about?

  Ai Ya said she used my shampoo, I don't want her to.

  Feng Yue interrupted and said, "No, Ai Ya, you can't lie at this time. I didn't hear much of your conversation, but it seems to be related to where you went last night, right? Absolutely not about shampoo."

  Ai Ya suddenly stood up, grabbed the chair and made a gesture to smash it towards Feng Yue. Ma Tiancheng was quick-witted and swift-handed, grabbing Ai Ya's leg in one motion. As soon as Ai Ya made this move, the other students immediately stood up and surrounded him, with several boys saying "Was it really you? Was it really you?"

  Ai Ya hugged her head and squatted on the ground, saying "It wasn't me, it wasn't me who killed him. We had a fight, but I didn't kill him."

  Fengyue walked into the crowd and said, "Aiyu, if it weren't for things being too serious, I really wouldn't tell others. You say you didn't kill that person, so why did you two quarrel? Speak up and let everyone hear it out. You won't say anything, how can we believe you?"

  Ai Ya raised her head, her eyes somewhat venomous. She said to Feng Yue, "You did it on purpose, didn't you? You deliberately set me up."

  Fengyue said, "You killed someone. If I don't speak out about what I know, the next one to die might be me." You can say that I'm framing you, but then tell us what happened and let everyone hear it.

  Ai Ya said, what exactly did you hear?

  The wind and moon said, I've heard everything I should have heard.

  Ai Ya stood up, laughing loudly, and then suddenly pushed Feng Yue, who stumbled a few steps before being caught by the boy behind her. Ai Ya said, "It wasn't me who killed him, but what we said, I won't be able to tell anyone. You can do whatever you want."

  After finishing speaking, Ai Ya squeezed out of the crowd and was caught by several boys. Hou Mingyu stood beside Ai Ya and suddenly roared: Wang Ai Ya, what do you want to do? If you make another move, I won't be polite!

  As soon as this shout came out, Wang Aiya suddenly collapsed like a deflated balloon and sat on the ground motionless.

  I walked over with Ma Tiancheng, and Ma Tiancheng whispered to me, "You take care of it."

  At this time, there was no other way out. I nodded and walked forward, saying that after all, she was the most suspicious. Take some measures, what do you think?

  The students also had no other choice at this time and nodded in agreement.

  I said, that room can't be entered. Find an empty room and find a rope to tie her to the bed for two days. If you're not at ease, take turns watching her. When the weather clears up and the rescuers arrive, we'll talk about it then. Is this okay?

  The students all nodded, and I naturally had no opinion. After all, this was their internal affair, they had more people and excess hormones, the matter could be resolved internally among them, I didn't plan to intervene.

  The students helped Ai Ya to the upstairs, Ma Tiancheng opened a new empty room, inside was filled with damp and moldy air, not even a quilt. Ma Tiancheng found another set of quilts and threw them on the bed, then pulled out a rope as thick as a finger and shook it in his hand, saying "Are you going to tie her up or should I?"

  The students looked at each other, all without a word. Wang Aiyue was indeed the most suspicious, but after all, they were classmates, and no one knew if they would meet again in the future.

  Ma Tiancheng looked around for half a day without anyone speaking up, knowing that no one wanted to do this thing that would offend people, so he said, Alright, I'll do it.

  Shang went up three, down five, and tied Wang Aiyu's wrists together with a rope. The action was smooth, the rope looked sturdy. Ma Tiancheng said, you lie down first, I'll connect this heating pad for you, and put a spittoon in this room for you.

  Wang Ai said weakly, I don't want to be here.

  Ma Tiancheng said, "This is also up to you, can you help me out? Help me measure it, see how long the heating pipe is, and wrap this rope around the heating pipe. Right, right, leave some space for her to move around, but don't let her be able to run away."

  Ma Tiancheng directed the students to tie up the rope, pulled it hard with his hands, patted his hands and said, is this okay? You arrange shifts by yourself, take good care of her, if something happens, you are responsible for it.

  Ma Tiancheng turned around and walked out, the people inside the house seemed to not want to stay either, one after another they walked out. At this time, Wang Aiyu suddenly collapsed, like a madman crying and shouting: I don't want to be here, I don't want to be here. You all deserve to die, haha, you all will die.

  She jumped down from the bed, her hair disheveled like a madwoman. Everyone had just reached the door when they saw this scene and were frightened to death. No one knew whether Wang Aiyu was having a mental breakdown or possessed by a ghost, and no one dared to move.

  Wang Aiyu was like a madwoman, wildly pulling on the rope, at the limit of her strength, like a mad dog, facing us with bloodshot eyes, shouting non-stop, her voice shrill and eerie, one sentence after another, making our hair stand on end.

  The students didn't dare to move, and finally Ma Tiancheng walked in again. He looked around and said, "Do you have anything cleaner? Something like a handkerchief to cover her mouth." Good grief, this is too scary, can we still sleep at night?

  The students were stunned, Wang Aiya was like a mad dog, desperately struggling to break free. It seemed that if she broke free from the ropes, she would bite someone to death right in front of everyone. Under this circumstance, the students didn't seem to have any other choice either. One of them handed over two handkerchiefs, Ma Tiancheng walked forward, but Wang Aiya was extremely aggressive, he turned his head and said, "What are you looking at? Help me hold her down."

  I was stunned outside, and only then did I think of helping. Along with the two boys, I went forward and grabbed Wang Aiyu, and Ma Tiancheng forcefully stuffed a handkerchief into her mouth. As it turned out, after doing this, Wang Aiyu's body softened, and she seemed to have fallen into a semi-comatose state, looking dull and expressionless. After we put her on the bed, she didn't move again, just sitting there blankly.

  We went out again and listened at the door. There was no more movement. Ma Tiancheng patted his hand at the door, gestured, and everyone went downstairs.

  Although the distance is already far enough, everyone's voice is very low. Ma Tiancheng said that it might be really her who did it. What do you think?

  I said this to the students, I saw that one by one, they were all worried and downcast, like eggplants hit by frost, listless and speechless. I interjected, "It should be a temporary impulse, right?"

  The students nodded at several points. Fengyue said, "Sorry, I didn't want to bring this up either, but I'm afraid she'll know that I heard it tonight..."

  The beauty of the wind and moon was originally extreme, but at this time, her expression seemed even more pitiful. As soon as she showed that expression, several boys immediately said, "It's not your fault, how could it be your fault? If it weren't for you, we might all have been in danger."

  Fengyue said, I also don't believe Aiyu would do such a thing, but the quarrel I really heard it, really.

  Siya nodded and said, "We also heard it. It was quite intense at the time. The voice was very loud, but later on, I didn't think about it again because there were too many things going on."

  The nun nodded, once again corroborating their words. Ma Tiancheng said that in any case, they were temporarily safe for the time being. Everyone locked their doors at night and stayed vigilant. If anything happened, they would shout loudly to take care of each other.

  We nodded, and Ma Tiancheng said, "Who's going to take care of her?"

  Ma Tiancheng pointed to the upstairs, and I saw that all the students' faces had turned white. Wang Aiyu's performance just now was terrifying, this place is full of strange things, no one knows whether her previous words "you will all die here" were true or false, whether it was a ghost possession or an evil curse.

  At this time, let one person be alone with Wang Aiyu in a room, and even if he is brave, he can't bear it.

  Ma Tiancheng saw that no one was taking over, so he said, "This won't do. You must have someone in charge." Look, she's a female college student and we're men. If you don't take responsibility for yourselves, it's not convenient for us either. Right?

  This matter also concerns me, I nodded and said, right, you don't care about it, we can't take care of it either.

  We two made the students have no choice but to take over, Xiao Bin said, then how can we manage? This place is so scary, we can't let us stay up all night either.

  Ma Tiancheng said that it's not necessary to stay up all night, after all, the road into the mountain is now blocked and there's a heavy rain outside. However, you have to take care of eating, drinking, and going to the bathroom.

  The students all remained silent, looking like no one wanted to take care of this matter. At this time, Fengyue spoke up and said, "Girls going to the bathroom is inconvenient for boys too. How about we girls take care of it? Is that okay with you guys?"

  I saw Siyao and Shenpo's faces turned white, Fengyue said, otherwise I'll come tonight. Tonight, no dinner, just let her go to the toilet, pour out the sputum basin. You two during the day, okay?

  Xiao Ai said, you're probably scared at night too, why don't we be together.

  I didn't expect Xiao Ai to be so brave. Originally, it had nothing to do with her, but she stood up at this time, really kind-hearted.

  It seemed like there was no way to refuse, so Siyao and Shenpo nodded in agreement. The four of them briefly divided up the tasks. Siyao and Shenpo were responsible for feeding Wang Aiyu dinner that night, while Fengyue and Xiaoyi would take her to the bathroom once at 9 pm and then again at 7 am the next morning for breakfast and another trip to the bathroom. The boys didn't want to back down when the girls had already stepped forward, so they agreed to send two people to stand guard outside Wang Aiyu's room whenever someone entered.

  This matter was clear, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Ma Tiancheng took out two keys and handed them to Fengyue and Sihao. He said, "These are the only two keys to that room. We don't have any here, we've given them all to you."

  The sentence he emphasized was obviously meant to exclude himself, but at this time, saying these things were all psychological comfort. The hotel had such a big thing as a death, and they couldn't get away with it even if they wanted to.
