Chapter 494: Notepad and Cellphone

Even if they had called the cops, the cops would not be able to make it in time for them. As they waited for the cops to arrive, not a single soul dared to even touch Feng Haoli, as they hid in their dorm rooms feeling inhumanly terrified.

As the cops arrived at the scene and had placed Feng Haoli’s corpse down, Meng Haoran noticed Feng Haoli’s eyes were protruding outward as if they would pop out at any second. Even his tongue was stretched out and that look alone was extremely terrifying.

Meng Haoran felt that he would not be able to sleep at night.

Feng Haoran sleeps on the upper bunk, and when he laid on his bed at night, he would think about the look on Feng Haoli’s horrifying face as he stood by his bed. Actually, the most terrifying thing would be if he had accidentally witnessed a dark apparition manifesting late at night.

Meng Haoran nodded as he replied, “Probably… Since I didn’t exactly pay attention to the time and fell asleep reading my novel. Even when I woke up, my phone was on my chest.”

As Jiang Yuecheng questioned, Qi Youxuan was focused on Feng Haoli’s desk and at this moment, Qi Youxuan calmly asked, “So Feng Haoli never had a computer right?”

Every single person was stunned, as Qi Youxuan pointed at the three remaining desks. He said, “I know every single one of you have a laptop or a computer, and it’s uncommon for a university student to not have one these days. From what I know, Feng Haoli’s family is not doing that badly financially.”

Li Guozheng was seemingly unable to recover as he nodded in confusion. He said, “He had one; it’s a laptop. It was always on his desk before, when exactly did it go missing though?”

He noticed Li Guozheng turned around to look at him, and it was also at the same time, Huang Chengfeng said in a suspicious tone, “I seriously haven’t noticed when did the laptop that was always on his desk went missing, so I have no idea that it was missing.”

“Try to think carefully to this morning. Was the laptop still there?” Qi Youxuan asked.

Li Guozheng thought about it for a long time, then proceeded to shake his head.

However, Huang Chengfeng frantically said, “His laptop was still there this morning. I remembered when I brought him breakfast this morning. It was still on his desk. I remember because the laptop took up way too much space, and I had to slightly move it to the side in order to place his breakfast on the desk.”

“What about yesterday then?” Qi Youxuan probed further.

Huang Chengfeng frowned and replied, “That, I seriously have no clue.”

At that moment, Li Guozheng started to speak in extreme uncertainty, “That… I… I think I saw Feng Haoli return yesterday.”

“What does that mean? Be more specific,” Jiang Yuecheng said in a serious tone.

“I’m not too sure. Since Haoran said Feng Haoli left at around eleven-thirty at night, I was still awake then, and I was downloading some videos to my Ipad, so I was able to see him leave. However, after binging a couple episodes of a drama series, I was feeling slightly tired, and if I recalled correctly it was around one in the morning, so I placed my Ipad down as I got ready to call it a day. Then, it was also at that moment that I saw him return, but the entire dorm was pitch black by then, so I never got a good look at that person’s face, only the shape of that person who resembled him, so I just assumed it was Feng Haoli. But somehow, I’m not so sure now,” Li Guozheng explained uncertainly. He then said, “You guys said the time of his death was between one and two in the morning, then that means the person that I saw last night was…”

As Li Guozheng focused on his thoughts, he began to panic.

“Could be the murderer as well,” Qi Youxuan said calmly.

Every single person present began to panic as well.

He could not help but think that he had actually shared a roof with a murderer as he slept. This thought terrified him. Fortunately for him, he was not murdered as well. The only thing that concerned him was from that day onward, he would not be able to sleep in peace.

Qi Youxuan felt as if he was missing some details but he could not put his finger on what exactly was amiss.

At that moment, Xing Jiadong’s phone rang and had indirectly made Qi Youxuan remember what exactly he missed.

“Cellphone!” Qi Youxuan shouted suddenly, and then proceeded to ask Jiang Yuecheng, “Was Feng Haoli’s cellphone found on his body?”

Jiang Yuecheng frowned as he gave it a deep thought then calmly replied, “No.”

“I don’t remember either,” Zhao Yiyang replied.

One person began searching Feng Haoli’s desk and another was searching through his bed. At the same time, another person was flipping through his closet, and that person had even gone so far to look through every pocket in every single clothing item that were in that closet.

“Nothing,” Zhang Ming said while shaking his head.

“There’s nothing here either,” Zhao Yiyang said.

Xing Jiadong shook his head and said, “Nothing.”

“What brand was Feng Haoli’s phone?” Qi Youxuan asked.

Huang Guofeng replied, “It’s an Apple phone.”

After that, they went to look for the dorm’s warden.

Since it was the male’s dorm, the warden was not strict. The only restrictions the warden enforced was not letting any girls in the dorms. However, if a guy wanted to sneak a girl in, there were methods to do so as well.

The warden of the male’s dorm was a forty-year-old skinny looking man.

They proceeded to enter a small room on the warden’s floor. It was a tiny room with only a single bed, a closet, and a desk. There was a tiny sliding panel window, similar to the ones that were used in a normal office. This was made so he could watch the students enter the dorm rooms when he sat on his desk.

At the corner of his tiny desk was a small fifteen-inch television. It was switched off at that time.

The warden sat by the door; Li Niancheng carefully stretched his head out to observe the situation outside the room.

The dorm that was under his supervision and was his sole responsibility had something this horrible and serious happened, so he was worried about his job. Although the pay for this job was not high, it happened to be a relaxing one, since there was nothing specific he had to do from day till night, and ever since he had taken the job, he had worked in the position for four to five years now. In the span of four to five years, he never encountered anything that happened in this particular dorm.

As he noticed Qi Chenglin and his team walking toward his direction, he immediately stood up nervously.

“Take a seat. We’re only here to ask a few questions,” Qi Youxuan said while pointing at his chair. He had also pulled up a tiny bench for Wei Muran to sit. Everyone else had to look for their own spot to sit.

However, Qi Youxuan had no place to sit down, thus, he proceeded to lean against the table.

“So, what time does your work begin and end? Qi Youxuan asked.

“I work twenty-four hours,” Li Niancheng said. “I’ve always stayed here. I lock up at eleven at night, not letting any students in, then I’ll be able to sleep. I wake up at five-thirty in the morning every day to open up the doors.”

Qi Youxuan recalled Dr. Bai Mo determined the time of death for the victim between one to two in the morning. It was way after Li Niancheng had locked the doors.

“What time did you lock up last night?” Qi Youxuan probed further.

“Last night was eleven-ten at night, since I can’t be exactly precise on when exactly I lock up,” Li Niancheng said. He continued, “Since there were two students that were just returning from the library when it was extremely late. They were yelling at me, so I had to wait until they made it back to lock up.”

“So that means those two students watched you lock up the doors right?” Jiang Yuecheng questioned.

“Yes exactly!” Li Niancheng felt slightly better, as he felt as if someone was able to be his witness, hence he would not be entirely responsible for everything that had happened.

“What were the names of those two students and which room do they live in?” Jiang Yuecheng asked.

Since he had years of experience watching over these students, he knew every single student in the building like the back of his hands. Hence, Li Niancheng was able to tell them the names of both students and which room they lived in. Jiang Yuecheng then proceeded to glance over at Xing Jiadong, signaling him to go on ahead to confirm his story.

“Did you hear any peculiar sounds or noises from around one to two in the morning?” Jiang Yuecheng questioned.

“No,” Li Niancheng answered. He continued, “I live so close to the doors and if you’re asking me if I had heard anyone open up the doors to sneak in at night, I can confirm that no one snuck in. Since the locks on these doors aren’t easy to lock up and every time I lock these doors, I have to use some force to do so. I’ve done this every day for four to five years now, and I’d say I have plenty of experience in that. Anyone without experience would never be able to open up these doors. Besides, these doors would make a really loud noise when I open or lock up the doors, so it would be impossible for me to miss it.”

“What about other sounds?” Jiang Yuecheng asked.

Li Niancheng shook his head. However, it was unsure if he was trying to deflect any responsibilities thus leading to him lying.

After a brief moment, Xing Jiadong returned. He told Jiang Yuecheng, “Sergeant Jiang, we had just confirmed those two students saw him lock up.”

After they returned to the station, everyone stared at Qi Youxuan right after he sat down.

“What are you guys staring at me for?” Qi Youxuan asked in a shocked tone.

“Waiting for your brilliant analysis dude,” Wei Muran replied while making him some milk tea.

In the process of making milk tea, using factory-made milk tea powder would not be acceptable. Milk and red tea leaves were a necessity, in addition to some honey. Never use sugar.

The red tea had to be extremely thick in order to smell and taste the pure scent of the tea. However, milk should not be too thick either, since it would be too heavy for the tea. He never liked the milk tea from any stalls out there, since he complained about not tasting any hint of the tea, hence making it not taste genuine.

Thus, after Qi Youxuan was employed as their team’s external specialist, without him even mentioning, Wei Muran would have already prepared his milk tea and everything else he needed. It started before they were dating.

On a much deeper thought, Wei Muran had long decided to date Qi Youxuan. The only thing she was worried about was how Qi Youxuan thought of her.
