The girl who leaped to her death.
Ming Shu was eating snacks in front of the old teaching building. The bloodstain had been cleaned up. If it wasn't for the yellow tape, no one could imagine that there had been a suicide case here.
Ming Shu ducked beneath the yellow tape and walked up to the rooftop.
The old teaching building had six floors in total, not very high. Its rooftop was littered with random piles of debris.
Ming Shu went to the spot the girl jumped down from, bending over to peer below.
Then suddenly her whole body was pulled back by a tug on her collar. Ming Shu turned around to see Cheng Yan's handsome and shining face.
With an aggressive smile, Ming Shu slapped Cheng Yan's hand aside and swiftly gave him a punch in the belly. Cheng Yan slightly moved his body to avoid the fist and easily grasped it.
"Lu Meng, are you sure you want to welcome me with such great passion?"
"If you stop haunting me, I'll stop being so passionate." Ming Shu jerked hard to break free from his grip, pulling his arm in a shoulder throw.
"..." Why does she like doing this.
Ming Shu stepped on Cheng Yan's chest, bending her body with two hands propped on her knees. She said with a smile, "Cheng Yan, you ignored my words again and again. Are you testing my bottom line?" Her gentle tone carried an intoxicating air, like a breeze blowing past his cheek.
"Lu Meng, do you remember that I also told you not to come here?" Cheng Yan stared back at Ming Shu. Her eyes were always smiling, but one couldn't discern her real thoughts and emotions at all.
"Who do you think you are? Do I have to obey what you say?"
Do you think you are a god?
I have to abide by whatever you say?
"It's good for you."
"Do you know what I want?"
Cheng Yan had never asked what she wanted and what she wanted to do. All he had done was treat her blindly according to his own intentions. He interfered with her behavior under the veneer of protecting her, which was especially annoying.
Cheng Yan frowned, silent for a moment, then asked, "What do you want?"
"Why do I have to tell you?" Ming Shu took back her foot. "If you don't have anything else to do, just go away already. Don't disturb my eating."
"..." Eating? Did he get it wrong?
She was the first to eat at a crime scene.
Climbing up from the floor, Cheng Yan brushed some dirt off his school uniform. As he saw Ming Shu really pulling out snacks to eat, his mouth twitched a little. He then walked to the edge of the rooftop, took a deep breath, and said, "That girl jumped from here. The police said it was suicide. Do you think so?"
Now that one way was blocked, he would take another. He didn't believe that he couldn't track down the killer!
Ming Shu just glanced at him, uninterested. She didn't say a word until she had finished eating a pack of snacks. With a faint voice, she said, "She did commit suicide."
Cheng Yan frowned deeply. "How do you know that?"
She was overconfident to say that, as if she had already known the answer.
"Because..." Ming Shu paused for a moment and her smile widened. "I saw it with my own eyes."
What?
