The Case of Love

Chapter 11 Handsome Boy
"Wu Nan, think about it carefully. Lu Ying didn't say anything special to you. The more you tell us, the more helpful it will be for us to understand the truth. You are her friend, and you don't want her to die in such an unclear way, right?" Su Xiaohan stared into Wu Nan's eyes and guided him softly.

"Special? Let me think about it." Wu Nan frowned and thought carefully. After a while, she looked up at Su Xiaohan and said uncertainly: "Lu Ying told me about her boyfriend. She said that she seemed to have chosen the wrong person. Her boyfriend is very fickle and is close to many girls."

Zhou Yifeng raised the corner of his lips and smiled, thinking, this boy's life is really colorful. Not only did he fall in love early, he secretly had a girlfriend and he also cheated.

"Thank you for cooperating with the investigation, Wu Nan. You can go back to class. If you remember anything else, you can contact us at any time." After saying that, Zhou Yifeng left Wu Nan his cell phone number and sent her out the door.

"Captain Zhou, it looks like we still need to talk to Huang Anran." Su Xiaohan suggested.

"That's right, that kid didn't tell the truth either!" Zhou Yifeng took out his cell phone and called Sun Can, the head teacher of Class 3, Grade 2.

Ten minutes later, Huang Anran arrived at the meeting room.

Unlike last time, when Huang Anran saw Zhou Yifeng and Su Xiaohan again, there was a hint of nervousness in his eyes, and his gaze wandered from time to time.

"Huang Anran, don't be afraid. I just want to know more about Lu Ying's situation. Just tell us the truth. You can go back to the classroom later." Su Xiaohan said with a smile.

Huang Anran seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and slowly raised his head and said, "Ask me, and I'll tell you everything I know."

"When was the last time you and Lu Ying were alone together?" Zhou Yifeng directly asked the question he wanted to know most.

"I don't remember. We haven't been alone together for a long time." Huang Anran answered very readily.

"Really? Think about it again!" Zhou Yifeng confirmed with him.

"I really don't remember. I'm about to be a senior in high school, and my mother asked me to study hard. I don't have time to think about anything else." Huang Anran said to himself without looking into Zhou Yifeng's eyes.

"you……"

Zhou Yifeng was about to continue asking questions when the door of the conference room rang. Su Xiaohan went to open the door and Li Zhisong hurried in.

Seeing Huang Anran there, Li Zhisong called Zhou Yifeng aside and whispered to him the results of his investigation into the laboratory.

According to the teacher in charge of the laboratory, Mr. Hu, the three girls who were poisoned in Room 613, Zhou Anqi and Huang Anran had not been to the chemistry laboratory recently. In addition, the laboratory has a rule that students are not allowed to enter the chemistry laboratory without the teacher's arrangement.

Li Zhisong retrieved the surveillance video at the laboratory entrance in recent days and was sure that what Teacher Hu said was correct.

After talking to Li Zhisong, Zhou Yifeng looked at Huang Anran's back, as if he remembered something. He whispered a few words into Li Zhisong's ear before returning to sit down opposite Huang Anran.

After Li Zhisong left, Zhou Yifeng took out the envelope from his bag and handed it to Huang Anran.

"Take a look. This is a poem written by your girlfriend. I found it in her schoolbag."

Huang Anran took the envelope from Zhou Yifeng, seemingly not surprised. He took out the letter from the envelope, glanced at it quickly, and then returned it to Zhou Yifeng.

"Why, have you read this poem?" Zhou Yifeng asked tentatively.

"I haven't read it, but I don't think it's surprising that she can write something like this. She's too stubborn. I told her that we still have one year before the college entrance examination, so we should separate temporarily and study hard, and we'll talk about it after entering college. She couldn't stand it. I..." As he spoke, Huang Anran leaned his elbows on the table, his fingers deeply inserted into his thick hair. While Huang Anran was talking to Zhou Yifeng, Su Xiaohan looked at him carefully again. She had to admit that he was a very handsome boy, who was in line with the aesthetic taste of seventeen or eighteen-year-old girls, and had the feeling of a domineering president in a romance novel. A high nose, thin lips, dark eyes, and a pair of sword-like eyebrows slanted into a few strands of hair hanging from his temples. However, such a boy who was only eighteen years old exuded a kind of aloof and arrogant temperament, like an eagle in the dark night, looking down on everything.

"Huang Anran, have you left school in the recent period of time?" An idea suddenly popped up in Su Xiaohan's mind, and she wanted to confirm her judgment.

Huang Anran still didn't look up when she asked, and said in a deep voice: "My math grades are not very good. I want to improve them as soon as possible. I haven't been home for almost a month."

"You haven't gone home, and you haven't left school?" Su Xiaohan continued to ask.

"No, I've been in school the whole time." Huang Anran confirmed.

"Okay, Captain Zhou, I'm fine." Su Xiaohan turned to look at Zhou Yifeng and smiled meaningfully.

Zhou Yifeng understood and asked Huang Anran to tell him whenever he remembered anything, and also left him his cell phone number.

After sending Huang Anran away, Zhou Yifeng asked Su Xiaohan: "Do you suspect him?"

Su Xiaohan neither confirmed nor denied it, and smiled, "Captain Zhou, he said he hasn't been alone with Lu Ying for a long time, and he also said he has never left the school. Let's verify it, and we will know that he is not telling the truth. If he is lying to us, there must be something wrong."

"Okay, your idea is good, let's go verify it!" Zhou Yifeng subconsciously patted Su Xiaohan on the shoulder and walked out of the meeting room.

Su Xiaohan walked behind him, feeling that he was like an indestructible mountain. She felt safe because of him.

It was class time and there was almost no one in the corridor. The only sound one could hear was the teacher's lecture coming from the classroom.

When passing by Class 2-3, Su Xiaohan subconsciously stopped. Through the glass on the door, she could see the situation in the classroom. Everything seemed normal, and nothing had changed because of the departure of Lu Ying and the other two. However, no one would sit in the three empty seats.

The two came to the school's monitoring room, where Li Zhisong was checking the surveillance video that the school had helped retrieve.

Seeing Zhou Yifeng coming, Li Zhisong reported: "Boss, these are the surveillance videos of the corridor of Class 2-3 of Senior High School. So far, there are no scenes of Huang Anran and Lu Ying being alone together."

"Not only should you check the areas near the classroom, but also the library, dormitory, cafeteria, and even the playground. You should also check all the places they might go to." Zhou Yifeng stared at the screen and instructed.

"Boss, this is a big project. I'm afraid my eyes..."

"Look carefully, if you find anything, I'll treat you to hotpot!"

Before Li Zhisong could finish complaining to him, Zhou Yifeng blocked his mouth with the temptation of delicious food.

"Okay, Boss! Eyes are nothing. The most important thing is to solve the case as soon as possible!"

Seeing Li Zhisong's current slick appearance and recalling her impression of him when she first met him, Su Xiaohan sighed that one really can't judge a person by his appearance.

As the sky gradually darkened and it was time for dinner, Su Xiaohan said hello to Zhou Yifeng and said she was going out to buy food. Zhou Yifeng was concentrating on watching the surveillance video and only responded with a single word, but Li Zhisong excitedly told her that there was a good snack bar near No. 2 Middle School.
