A Sudden Clue

Lu Benwei’s heart trembled. No matter what, he would never believe that such a kind-hearted girl would be a murderous monster.

Therefore, no matter what, Lu Benwei had to make it clear. What was behind it?

Lu Shuangquan grinned and smiled awkwardly. “That’s true. Li Yiran, the few of you behind, help her with the brooms.”

He also sent out a few of his classmates to help Fang Xiaoxiao clean up the broken glass.

Class started.

Fang Xiaoxiao’s new seat was arranged to be very close to Chu Yan. As long as Chu Yan turned her body slightly, she could see Fang Xiaoxiao’s table.

When he was in class, Lu Benwei received a message from Chen Yuan.

“Lu Benwei, I already know that Teacher Yu was killed. I also know that you’ve infiltrated the First Junior High School. I’ll go to Green Spirit City at noon and bring you to meet someone.”

Lu Benwei heaved a long sigh of relief and forwarded this message to Chu Yan before deleting it.

The morning classes proceeded in an orderly manner.

Three minutes before the third math class. The moment the math homework was distributed, Wang Shuai shouted, “F*ck! How did Old Wang find out that I copied my homework? I clearly changed it!”

Lu Benwei leaned his head over and saw that on Wang Shuai’s homework, there was a sentence that made people laugh and cry: “Did you copy homework again?”

“The older the ginger, the spicier!” Lu Benwei sighed.

“How did he know?”

Lu Benwei pointed at the last question. “This question is beyond the outline. Teacher Wang, I don’t think you can solve it at your level!”

“Then you can do it?”

Before Wang Shuai could finish questioning him, Old Wang walked into the classroom.

“Wang Shuai, why are you still sitting in your seat?” Old Wang sneered.

“Teacher, I want to report Lu Hongyi for copying homework!” Wang Shuai was indignant, putting righteousness above kinship.

Old Wang pushed up his glasses and said in disbelief, “Wang Shuai, are you crazy? “He solved the last big question. Why didn’t you suspect him?” Wang Shuai was indignant.

Wang Shuai’s eyes widened. This was the first time he experienced the viciousness of the human heart.

Lu Benwei raised his eyebrows and grinned. “Stand at the back with peace of mind.”

“You’re really something!” Wang Shuai spat and consciously stood at the back.

Soon, it was noon. Lu Benwei and Chu Yan left the school and met up with Hu Wu and Chen Yuan.

Chen Yuan was wearing a black suit with a yellow and white boutonniere pinned to his chest. He looked pure and solemn. Counting the time, tomorrow was the day of Yu Liang’s burial.

This was the first time Hu Wu and Chen Yuan had met and greeted each other briefly.

“Headmaster Chen Yuan, I’ve heard a lot about you.”

“You said on the phone that you urgently summoned us because you wanted to bring us to see someone?” Hu Wu said politely.

Chen Yuan nodded and silently hailed a taxi.

“Let’s go to this place!” Chen Yuan handed over a piece of paper with an address written on it.

The taxi driver looked at Chen Yuan’s clothes and glanced at the note. “It’s possible, but you have to pay more!”

Hu Wu was unhappy when he heard that. “What time is it now? Do you still have to pay extra for a taxi?”

The taxi driver was amused. “Then wait and see if anyone is willing to send you.”

With that, he stepped on the clutch and put it in gear, then left.

Hu Wu took a whiff of the exhaust gas and cursed, “I’ll remember you. Just you wait!”

Chen Yuan did not say much and hailed the second taxi.

After seeing the address, the driver immediately stepped on the accelerator and ran as if he had seen a plague!

“What’s going on?” Hu Wu was speechless.

“The taxi driver is the most well-informed person in the entire city. He might know all the information about the victims,” Chen Yuan said indifferently, no longer as lazy as before.

“So, we’re going to Senior Yu Liang’s house?” Lu Benwei asked softly. Chen Yuan nodded and walked forward silently.

Not long after, the first taxi turned back.

Winding down the window, the driver chuckled and said, “I didn’t say anything wrong. If you don’t pay more money, you won’t be able to go to that place!”

Chen Yuan did not say anything and sat in the back row. Lu Benwei and Chu Yan followed. Hu Wu also sat on it while cursing.

“You’re going to the vice principal’s house, right?”

The driver started talking to the four of them.

After Hu Wu got into the car, his state of mind was completely different.

“How do you know so much information?”

“What’s the big deal? Don’t mention which murder case, even if the boss’ mistress’ sow had a few litters, we would know!” The driver boasted proudly.

He honked his horn and said proudly, “If you ask me, the Law Enforcement Bureau is a bunch of good-for-nothings! If I were a night watcher, I’d have solved all the cases a long time ago.”

“You guys even know that the people from the Law Enforcement Bureau are in charge of these cases?” Hu Wu was in disbelief. At the same time, he bit his lips tightly.

Hu Wu felt a lump of anger in his heart as he was inexplicably criticized and insulted by the townsfolk. More importantly, he was helpless! Hu Wu licked his lips and decided to kill the driver’s spirit!

“Brother, do you have any outstanding investigative methods?”

“Haha!” The driver smiled. “There’s no other reason. It’s just that I’m well-informed and I like to watch detective comics!”

The corners of Hu Wu’s mouth twitched, and he was already somewhat speechless. He was like a scientist who had encountered an illiterate.

The scientists said that rockets needed high-density solid fuel to fly. Illiterate people would say that they were wrong. In their opinion, the rocket had to use coal to fly, and it had to be washed with water. Any scientist who looked at an illiterate person would lose.

“In your opinion, how should we solve the case?”

Hu Wu handed him a cigarette as if he was a little brother showing respect to his big brother.

The driver held it in his mouth and raised his eyebrows proudly. “Hey, you don’t have to say that. I happen to have a few clues.”

“Do you think those dead people have anything in common?”

“Similarities? They’re all in the same society!” The driver held the cigarette in his mouth, his saliva soaking the cigarette holder.

“The Quakers?” Hu Wu was stunned. He had never known about this.

Lu Benwei and Chu Yan’s hearts also sank, but their expressions were calm.

“Hehe! This is the power of our intelligence agency! A few of my colleagues have said in the group that every Sunday, the deceased will go to a church in the suburbs to pray. In my opinion, the murderer is someone from the Quakers!”

Before he could finish, the driver rolled down the window and stuck his head out to curse, “Damn it, do you know how to drive?”
