Chapter 400 The Rumor Dies

I woke up hungry.

When I saw that it was past noon, I lazily got up from the bed and went to the kitchen to look around. There was nothing there except a few potatoes. I simply cooked a pot of rice and made myself fried shredded potatoes.

I don't know how to cook. Even frying shredded potatoes was taught to me by Yin Xinyue.

Li Mazi was definitely a dog. He smelled the smell and entered the store: "It's really fate. I caught up with you for dinner as soon as I came back. Brother Zhang, seriously, are you because you feel sorry for me? Are you going to cook specially for me?"

At this moment, I wished I could use all my might and chop Li Mazi to death with a kitchen knife.

While I was frying shredded potatoes, Li Mazi moved a small bench and sat next to me and said, "Brother Zhang, I have already found the goldfish bracelet you asked me to check. There was indeed a female college student at the flea market recently. I bought a black goldfish bracelet, the seller was called Lao Yao, and he made a living as a peasant."

"He is not in good health and has been relying on eating ginseng to survive, so people in the circle call him Lao Yao! This old guy is good at craftsmanship and can often find some weird things, but it's just a small matter. , and it’s not worth much. So some of the local people we worked with at the beginning already live in small bungalows, and he is the only one who is still hanging out in the flea market.”

I stir-fried the vegetables without looking back: "Continue."

Li Mazi swallowed his saliva: "He dug out this goldfish bracelet. But Lao Yao didn't come to set up his stall today, so I didn't meet him. It was someone who told me the news. The bracelet is actually of average quality, although it is black jade. Yes, but there are two very clear cracks on it. It is a defective product and not worth even 500 yuan. Who knew that the old drug dealer was so talkative that he actually tricked a female college student into buying it..."

This female college student should be Li Xiaoling.

It seems that Li Xiaoling's suicide is inseparable from this goldfish bracelet.

I put the food on a plate and asked, "Then do you know when Lao Yao will come to set up a stall?"

"On Sunday." Li Mazi replied: "What? Do you want to find Lao Yao to inquire? I can tell you that Lao Yao has a very weird character. Except when he is selling things, he usually doesn't say a word If you didn’t know him, you would probably think he was mute.”

I didn't pay attention to Li Mazi, I just filled two bowls of rice and ate there.

Li Mazi was very dissatisfied with my cooking skills: "Brother from the Zhang family, is this potato shreds? I don't have enough education, so don't lie to me. These are thicker than French fries."

I threw my chopsticks angrily and said, "If you like it, eat it. If you don't want to eat it, get out."

"Brother Zhang, no matter what, I've been running for you all morning. You can't burn bridges by crossing the river, right?" Li Mazi protested while taking a big mouthful of rice.

I glared at Li Mazi so hard that he ran to play on the computer after eating.

Just as I was clearing away the dishes, Li Mazi suddenly shouted: "Brother, come and take a look!"

"What's wrong?" I asked.

"That brat named Zisu left you a message again. Tsk, you thought you were the King of Heaven, and I'm always here for you."

I pushed the grumbling Li Mazi aside and found that Zisu only left me one sentence: I know why Li Xiaoling committed suicide.

"Why?" I replied immediately.

Zisu was actually online at this time. He was obviously very proud that he had obtained such important information. He said proudly: "I heard it was caused by rumors. Before Li Xiaoling committed suicide, someone took a photo of her getting out of the BMW. , so some people in the school said that she was being kept by an old man, and others said that she was willing to work as a bartender to make extra money. In short, there were all kinds of unpleasant things. Our teacher even had a special talk with Li Xiaoling because of this matter. As a result That night, overwhelmed, Li Xiaoling committed suicide..."

At the end, Zisu added: "You are still an expert, why can't you find this bit of information?"

Li Mazi, who happened to be watching the excitement, suddenly became furious: "Damn it, does this kid deserve a beating? Brother, if I were you, I wouldn't be able to bear it."

I smiled at him: "It's okay, I can bear it."

Because of Li Mazi's interruption, Zisu couldn't get a reply for a long time online. He was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot: "How is it? Is this clue very useful? I even searched on the school website specifically, and sure enough I found one. A photo of Zhang Li Xiaoling getting out of a BMW."

Zisu sent a photo.

In the photo, Li Xiaoling wears a mask and has lifeless eyes. The BMW behind her is extremely beautiful, which is incompatible with her status as a student.

"How's it going? Isn't it exciting?"

"Where are the people?"

"Hey! Master, are you there?" Zisu typed out several words anxiously.

I was silent for a moment and replied: "If I were Li Xiaoling, I would probably commit suicide. After all, the rumors outside are so terrible. Things that are obviously not true are spread from one person to another, and they are just looking at the joke. Psychologically, Li Xiaoling will never be able to hold her head up and be a good person for the rest of her life..."

"Master, you are right. The most terrifying thing in this world is the people who don't know the truth."

The impatient Zisu hurriedly went offline without waiting for my reply.

I looked at the conversation on the computer screen and was distracted for a moment.

As Zisu said, in today's technologically advanced world, what hurts people the most is no longer guns, guns and bullets, but gossip.

Your seemingly innocent words may change a person's life.

Even kill a living life!

I seem to understand a little bit why the lip-stitching incident occurred at Wuhan University after Li Xiaoling committed suicide.

Did everyone who hid behind their backs and spoke ill of Li Xiaoling have their lips sewn up?

I decided to go to Wuhan University again tomorrow morning.

Stepping into the gate of Wuhan University, a nervous atmosphere came to face me.

Did something happen again?

Several young students were still talking about the news when they walked past me holding textbooks.

"Have you all heard about it? Last night, there was another lip-suturing incident in the boys' dormitory."

"Is it true? Didn't the school say that it has installed cameras and sent a lot of security guards on duty? How could such a terrible thing happen again?"

"Can you believe what the school said?"

"By the way, who is that boy?"

"I don't know him. He seems to be a senior in his sophomore year."

"I know, a fellow student of mine happens to live next door to him. I heard that this senior is usually a homebody, but he is very curious and very gossipy. He seems to be called... Zisu."

Perilla!

Following their footsteps, I couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

Is it the Zi Su I know?

The few students walking in front were still talking selflessly.

"Oh, for such a big man, no wonder he had his lips sewn up."

"By the way, I heard that he had an affair with Li Xiaoling before. It was revealed on the school website early this morning. The two of them once collaborated on a project. They were so intimate that I wanted to go to the hotel directly."

Although from the tone of voice, they despise gossipers, in fact they themselves are also such people.

I listened to their voices fade away.

Why did Zi Su have her lips sewn?

A bad thought suddenly flashed through my mind.

Is it because he talked to me online last night about Li Xiaoling’s suicide?

I couldn't help but walked downstairs to the girls' dormitory and looked at the dormitory where Li Xiaoling lived in a daze.

Li Xiaoling, who committed suicide in a red dress, has her resentment reached the level of a ghost king? I have never seen such powerful resentment.

Suddenly, a red shadow flashed through the window of Li Xiaoling's bedroom.

Sure enough it was her.

But this is a girls' dormitory. It's impossible for me to enter casually under the current circumstances. Otherwise, not only will I not be able to subdue Li Xiaoling, but I will be arrested by the security guards and taken to the police station.

The crime is that he is a lip-stitching maniac!

I was racking my brains to think of a solution when a familiar voice suddenly sounded from behind me: "Why are you here again?"

I turned around and saw that it was Zhuang Ning.
