The book-crossing case happened! The villains all want me to go to jail

Chapter 19 Is it okay for you, a murderer, to sneak in?

The school was filled with a peaceful and tranquil atmosphere. Students were listening attentively to the imparting of knowledge in the classroom, and teachers were teaching passionately on the podium. The warm sunlight gently shone through the windows and sprinkled on the paths of the campus, outlining a harmonious and beautiful picture. However, this seemingly ordinary afternoon was destined to be torn apart by a sudden and terrifying storm.

Su Yi, Xie Xuan'an and Yi Shou were all in a heavy mood because of the series of troubles caused by the exposure of the video. They were planning to go to the library together to read relevant materials, hoping to find a good way to deal with the pressure of public opinion. The three of them walked side by side on the path of the campus in silence, each immersed in their own thoughts.

Inadvertently, they walked to the school's rarely visited, slightly eerie underground first floor. At this moment, a faint, creepy, pungent smell, like an invisible hand, quietly grabbed their attention.

"What's that strange smell?" Ikari was the first to frown, quickly covering his nose with one hand and waving his other hand in front of him anxiously. A hint of something strange flashed in his eyes, but it was quickly covered up.

A bad premonition suddenly crossed Xie Xuan'an's mind, but he quickly suppressed his inner panic and said calmly: "Let's go and take a look." The three of them exchanged glances, understood each other, and decided to follow the strange smell to find out what was going on.

As they slowly approached a remote corner of the underground first floor, the scene before them was like a heavy hammer, instantly knocking them dumbfounded. There was a large pool of shocking blood on the ground, which shone with a strange luster under the dim light. In the pool of blood, there was a horrible dismembered body, with broken limbs scattered all over the ground, and torn clothes entangled with bloody pieces of flesh, which was disgusting and unbearable to look at.

Su Yi only took a glance, and his stomach was like a churning sea. He couldn't help but scream "wow" and vomited all over the place. He bent over and kept dry heaving. His face was as pale as paper, as if all the blood had been sucked out.

Ikari was also frightened by this horrific scene and cried out "Wow", his body trembling uncontrollably, his eyes full of fear. But in that brief moment, there seemed to be a dark light in his eyes that was inconsistent with fear.

After the initial few seconds of extreme shock, Xie Xuan quickly forced himself to calm down. He took a deep breath, quickly scanned the scene with his eyes, and his brain began to work at an astonishing speed.

"Hurry...hurry and call the police!" Ikari's voice was trembling like a fallen leaf drifting in the wind.

Xie Xuanan responded calmly: "Yi Shou, call the police immediately. Su Yi, try to calm down first."

Yi Shou trembled as he took out his cell phone and dialed the police with shaking fingers. While waiting for the police to arrive, Xie Xuan remained calm and said firmly: "Everyone, don't panic and try not to destroy anything at the scene."

Su Yi tried hard to straighten his body, gasping for breath, trying to free himself from the extreme fear, but his eyes were still filled with lingering fear and panic.

Soon, a sharp and piercing siren suddenly sounded outside the campus, like a sharp sword, ruthlessly breaking the tranquility of the campus. The police rushed to the scene at lightning speed, quickly set up a cordon, and tightly sealed off the entire underground first floor. Xie Xuan'an and the other two were the first to discover the incident and were taken away by the police for interrogation.

Xie Xuan'an was brought into a small and depressing interrogation room. The lights were dim and gloomy, and the atmosphere was so solemn that it was almost impossible to breathe. Opposite him sat two policemen with solemn expressions and sharp eyes, like two cold lights, tightly locking him.

"Tell me, what were you doing on the underground floor at that time?" a policeman asked sternly.

Xie Xuan'an looked calm and answered in an orderly manner: "We were going to the library. When we passed by the underground first floor, we smelled a strange and pungent smell. Out of curiosity, we followed the smell to check. Who could have expected to witness such a horrific scene."

"Is it that simple?" The policeman glanced back and forth at his face with a questioning look.

"It's absolutely true. None of us ever thought we would encounter such a tragic situation." Xie Xuan'an's eyes were as firm as iron and he did not back down.

"Then why did you appear in that place?" The police continued to ask.

Xie Xuan'an frowned slightly and said calmly, "It's just a coincidence. We have absolutely no bad motives or intentions."

The police stared at Xie Xuan'an's eyes, trying to find even the slightest flaw in his expression, but Xie Xuan'an remained calm and answered fluently.

At the same time, in another room, Su Yi and Yi Shou were also being interrogated. Su Yi was terrified, his eyes were erratic, and cold sweat kept rolling down his forehead. Yi Shou kept describing how scared he was, and emphasized from time to time that he had always been timid, but during his narration, he would occasionally lose focus for a moment, as if his thoughts were drifting somewhere else.

In the school, this shocking news spread like a plague. After hearing the news, the students instantly fell into a state of panic. The classrooms and corridors were filled with terrified discussions.

"I heard that a body was found on the underground first floor, and it was dismembered!"

"It's horrible, how could such a terrible thing happen in this school?"

"I don't know who the murderer is. Is he still lurking in the school?"

The entire campus was filled with an atmosphere of extreme tension and fear, and the originally relaxed and pleasant learning atmosphere disappeared without a trace in an instant.

The police launched a comprehensive and in-depth investigation of the case, and conducted a meticulous investigation and evidence collection at the scene. During the investigation, Xie Xuan'an was listed as a key suspect for some reason. But Xie Xuan'an always believed in his innocence and patiently waited for the moment when the truth came to light.

The policeman's eyes became sharper and sharper, staring at Xie Xuan'an closely, as if he wanted to reach deep into his soul.

"Xie Xuan'an, according to the information we have, your recent whereabouts in school are a little unusual. Can you give us a reasonable explanation?" The police's voice kept echoing in the small interrogation room, hitting the wall.

Xie Xuan'an was slightly startled, and after a brief moment of surprise, he quickly regained his composure. "Forgive my ignorance, I don't know where the abnormality you are referring to is. My daily life is no different from usual. I go to class, eat, and rest, that's all."

"Did you have any contact or conflict with the deceased?" The police pressed on step by step, not giving Xie Xuan'an any chance to breathe.

Xie Xuan'an shook his head without hesitation, "I don't know the deceased at all, let alone any contact or conflict." His eyes were clear, without the slightest evasion or concealment.

The policeman was silent for a moment, flipping through the documents in his hand, then looked up again, looking at Xie Xuan'an with a sharp gaze, "Someone reported that they saw you near the crime scene a few days before the incident."

Xie Xuan'an frowned and fell into deep memories. "Maybe it's just a coincidence. I usually go around the school, so it's normal for me to pass by there."

At this time, another policeman interrupted and said, "Xie Xuan'an, you must know that if you don't tell the truth, the consequences will be disastrous."

Xie Xuan'an's tone became anxious and firm, "Everything I said is true. I have never done anything illegal or disorderly."

The atmosphere in the interrogation room became increasingly tense, as if the air had solidified into a heavy block of lead. Beads of sweat oozed out of Xie Xuan'an's forehead, but he still straightened his spine and refused to yield.

Time passed slowly, and the police kept asking sharp questions, trying to find loopholes and flaws in Xie Xuan'an's words. However, Xie Xuan'an remained calm and composed, and his answers were well-reasoned and impeccable.

Suddenly, the door of the interrogation room was pushed open, and a policeman walked in quickly and whispered a few words in the ear of the interrogating policeman. His originally serious and tense expression changed slightly, and he looked at Xie Xuan'an again, "Take a break first, we will further verify the relevant situation."

Xie Xuan was taken out of the interrogation room and waited quietly in the next room. He sat on a chair, his hands clenched into fists, his joints turned white from the force, and his heart was full of doubts and uneasiness.

At the same time, the police investigation is still in full swing. They conducted a more in-depth investigation of Xie Xuan'an's interpersonal relationships and daily activities, not missing any subtle clues.

After a long time, Xie Xuan was taken into the interrogation room again.

"After our careful investigation, we have temporarily ruled out your suspicion of committing the crime at the time of the crime. But as the first discoverer of the scene, you still need to fully cooperate with our subsequent work." The police's tone was obviously much softer.

Xie Xuanan breathed a sigh of relief, "I will definitely cooperate to the best of my ability."

Walking out of the interrogation room, Xie Xuan felt exhausted physically and mentally. But he knew that the matter was not over yet, and he had to find the real murderer to completely clear his suspicion and restore peace and tranquility to the campus.

He met Su Yi and Yi Shou, and the three of them looked at each other, as if there was an invisible tacit understanding quietly surging, as if foreshadowing that a common battle was about to begin.

But...is it okay for the murderer Ikari to sneak in?
