Chapter 46

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?

Returning to the day of the incident…

Ming Shu beat Shangguan Feng fiercely before taking off his clothes and throwing him into the classroom . Then she went to the rooftop, eating snacks as she waited for an entertaining show .

In the middle of her eating, someone suddenly ran up crying, moving straight to the edge of the rooftop . Ming Shu was sitting on the other side of the rooftop, blocked by the debris, so the girl didn’t notice her .

She stood alone at the edge of the rooftop, crying for a long time, which annoyed Ming Shu a lot . She was in no mood to eat anything . Ming Shu stood up and walked over to the girl along the roof’s edge, giving a standard smile . “Can you stop crying? It’s impolite to disturb others’ eating . ”


The girl seemed to be startled by her sudden appearance . She stared at Ming Shu with tearful eyes .

Ming Shu still had some impression of her face . She was the girl who showed her the way to the junior department before .

“Ugh, it’s you . ” Ming Shu walked steadily from the edge of the rooftop toward the girl . Her eyes seemed to contain the warm spring sunshine . “Why are you crying?”

“I…” The girl opened her mouth and said in a subtle voice, “Senior Sister… I’m fine . ”

Ming Shu turned around and walked back . “If you’re fine, then stop crying . You disturbed my eating . ”

The girl stood where she was . She watched Ming Shu disappear behind the debris, then clutched her clothes and carefully moved over there . Slipping between the piles, she saw Ming Shu sitting in a spot near the inside part of the rooftop, many snacks at hand .

“Senior Sister…” She asked cautiously, “What are you doing here?”



“Eating snacks,” Ming Shu answered .

The girl looked at the snacks in front of Ming Shu . She stood still for a long time, not knowing what she was wondering .

“Since you don’t want to die, go back to class . Don’t stand here, because I won’t share my snacks with you . ”

The girl smiled for some unknown reason . “Senior Sister, I didn’t intend to eat your snacks . ”

“Even if you did, I won’t give you any . ” The food protector Ming Shu was online .

The girl was amused again, but soon the smile on her face became miserable . She looked away and toward the cloud in the distance . “Senior Sister, do you know the feeling of being dead?”

Ming Shu looked up at her . Tears were silently falling down the girl’s cheeks . Her overcast eyes, which were supposed to be vibrant, now were filled with despair and pain .

The girl wiped away her tears and sobbed, “Sister, I’m so envious of your senior department . ”

“What’s wrong with your junior department? Tell me, perhaps I can help you . ”What’s the secret hidden in the junior department? It’s forcing students to commit suicide?

The girl shook her head and bent over in a 90-degree bow to Ming Shu . “Thank you, Sister . ”

Finishing this sentence, the girl turned around and left . She walked back to the place where she had been standing, her eyes pointed in the direction of the junior department .

She was still standing there when Ming Shu ate up her snacks and left . But after she watched those two’s entertaining show, the girl jumped from the building .

Ming Shu was sure there was only the girl herself on the rooftop when she left . Although the girl had struggled, she was dead in her heart . Thus, it was not a murder: she committed suicide .

Cheng Yan’s gaze became complicated and his voice lowered a bit . “Since you knew she wanted to commit suicide, why didn’t you stop her?”

Ming Shu tilted her head with a subtle smile . “I didn’t know that . ” When she left, the girl was just standing on the rooftop . She didn’t make any move to jump off . It totally made sense for Ming Shu to say she didn’t know .

“…” I really don’t know how to describe this girl  . Cheng Yan took a deep breath . “I found some clues at the junior department . Do you want to know?”

“Will you be so kind as to tell me?”

Cheng Yan felt helpless . “Even if I don’t tell you, you will search for yourself . It’s better for me to tell you than put you in danger . ”

Ming Shu pondered for a while, then nodded with a smile . “Great . ”

Cheng Yan was somewhat relieved . Sometimes she just didn’t follow the logic of normal people . He was really afraid she wouldn’t agree .

But…

Now she agreed, which made his heart even more uncertain .

“Ahem… well, now we are partners?” Cheng Yan asked carefully .

“If you think so,” Ming Shu said without much care .

“…” Why is it so hard to chase a girl!

What about capturing her heart with flowers? Being the Prince Charming?

What about marrying her after saving her life? Being the hero?

Lies!
