She felt that Lin Shu’s words were full of loopholes. However, now he had an alibi, she couldn’t pinpoint what was wrong, neither could she conclude that he was the murderer.

Lin Shu was still aggressive. "You have wronged me. Now that I have proven that I am not the murderer, don’t you have something to say to me?"

Say your head! Murderer!

"You must give me a fair explanation!"

Explain my ass!

He now had a ‘bulletproof’ protective talisman.

Suddenly, Tang Si snatched the record book he held in his hand. "This is trash."

After she tore the record book, she scattered it into the air. She then shrugged her shoulders and spread her hands. "Well, there is no evidence now. What do you do now? If ah Ji said that you are the murderer, then you are the murderer. I believe in our Ah Ji."

Pfft! That’s it? She’s crazy!

Lin Shu was furious. "You hoyden!"

"You try that one more time and I will kill you now. That’s the easiest way to put an end to it." She was about to reach for the whip on her waist when Ji Yunshu stopped her.

"Miss Tang, now is not the time for you to mess around."

"Ah Ji, I’m helping you. He must be the murderer. The so-called explanation is nothing more than sophistry."

Ji Yunshu was speechless.

At that moment, Shi Ziran rushed in and directly dragged Tang Si out without saying anything.

"What are you doing? Let go of me, I want to help Ah Ji." Her shrill voice slowly faded into the distance.

Lin Shu looked at the torn paper on the floor and became so mad that the veins at his temples started pulsing. "Crazy girl."

Then, he said to Jing Rong and others in an overbearing tone, "Though the book is torn, it doesn’t mean that the evidence is gone. In any case, you must give me a fair explanation."

However, Jing Rong had a bad temper and everyone knew it. Flames were silently growing in his eyes. With that word "fair" of Lin Shu, the fire became bigger and bigger. Eventually, it became a fireball with sharp teeth that flew towards Lin Shu.

With seemingly no regard to the bearing of a prince, he grabbed up Lin Shu’s collar and pulled him close fiercely.

He said brutally, "Listen. Don't think that finding these so-called records will make you innocent and prove that you are not the murderer. If we find the tiniest shred of any evidence that proves otherwise, I will skin you alive."

With a careless fling of his arm, Lin Shu fell on the ground. Jing Rong then left the room with Ji Yunshu. Who the heck didn’t have some moments where they forgot their social status and lost their temper?

Lin Shu was in a sorry state in front of the sea of curious gazes. These few days were definitely his unlucky days.

Mo Ruo helped Teacher Yu to a chair, then handed the prescription that he had previously written to the apprentice."Get the medicine according to this and help Teacher to take them on time."


"Yes."

Job done, he stepped over Lin Shu, who was still sitting on the ground, and went straight out. He hurried to catch up with Jing Rong and Ji Yunshu, asking, "What exactly is going on?"

The two stopped walking. Seeing that there were no students at the Mingshan Academy around, they explained things to Mo Ruo. Realisation dawned on him. "I see. But didn’t he also have an explanation and evidence in the record book that he was not the murderer?"

Ji Yunshu did not think so. "If he is really not the murderer, why did he only explain how the Eastern Chestnut bead get into the bottle only after so much questioning? From his expression, it was also clear that he was very nervous and had a guilty conscience.”

"Maybe he's just nervous. Anyone who is accused of murder will more or less look like that. Could you be thinking too much?" Mo Ruo doubted.

She shook her head. "I don't know. If he is really not the murderer, then he must know something else, to look like that."

"You mean, he very likely knows who the murderer is?"

"This is just a preliminary deduction."

This is the investigation, the establishment of hypotheses, the verification of hypotheses, conclusions, and overturning those conclusions.

Only one word to describe it: exhausting!

But Jing Rong said, "Since you have already taken over this case, there is no reason to let go. It seems that we still have to stay in the academy for one more day. I really would like to see what Lin Shu is hiding."

It was certainly the first time he was so concerned about a case.

Of course, most of it was due to curiosity. He wanted to see who was the murderer among the students in the academy.

Mo Ruo suddenly found that there was something extra in his sleeve. When he took it out, he found that it was the letter left by Guo He. He hit himself on the forehead.

"Look at my forgetfulness. I took it from Teacher Yu just now to take a look but was so stunned by Lin Shu that I subconsciously put it into my sleeve and forgot about it. I have to go back and return the letter to him."

Just as he was about to leave, he was stopped by Ji Yunshu. "Wait, let me have a look at the letter."

Mo Ruo gave it to her. She unfolded it and saw that the delicate lines of handwriting looked like it was from a woman rather than a man. Nothing much strange about it.

She passed the letter back to Mo Ruo. "Take it to Teacher Yu. It may be the only thing Guo He left to him, so don't lose it."

"Yeah, I will go back and I won't lose it," he added. "But if you plan to stay one more day to solve the case of bones in well, then I have to stay in the wings, waiting for the murderer to step out." He left.

Ji Yunshu had not had a moment to rest since the morning. Jing Rong bade her go back to the room to rest before continuing the investigation.

After returning to the room obediently, she twisted her sore neck and walked to the window. She then stood there and started thinking about the case.

From the beginning when they salvaged the skeleton, to the record book. She thought about every detail, muttering to herself, “Just where did it go wrong?”

If the murderer was really Lin Shu, he was clearly not in the academy on the 13th! Then...

Her eyes suddenly widened. "So, if there is something wrong, it would be a mistake in the time!"

However, what’s wrong about the time? She wanted to continue digging deeper into it, but her head screamed and screamed. she shook her head, forcing herself to temporarily stop thinking about it and put it away. She was about to reach out and close the window, but when she lifted her arms, she suddenly remembered the letter that Wei Yi gave her!

She stopped closing the window, and took out the letter from Wei Yi. It was a flat piece of paper, folded neatly by that silly boy. She unfolded it to reveal a densely packed page of words.

The most eye-catching words were also the two most neatly-written words: Shu’er.
