You XiaoMo immediately checked the following information. You Lu and You Bo were adults that were quickly approaching thirty. Even if they married a wife and had a kid soon after his death, this probability could be ruled out as the child would definitely be younger than ten. This was because the minimum age of the students in Thunderclap University was twelve years old.

Then it may be their wives who should be females.

You XiaoMo marked out the women on the name list with a red pen. There were only three of them. They were young and beautiful and all looked like a possible candidate. However, he soon locked one of the most beautiful girls. The girl in the picture was glowing with health and vigor, and she looked sunny and cheerful. She was absolutely in line with the tastes of You Lu and You Bo, but that was not the real reason why he noticed the girl. The important thing was that girl was a beloved daughter of the JingDu family and even he would know something about connections through marriages.

“It looks like she’s the one.” You XiaoMo praised himself in his head.

Ling Xiao rested his chin in one hand and did not join in the discussion this time.

In order to confirm his conjecture, You XiaoMo ran to the database and pulled out all the information about the girl’s life. As a result, he was suddenly struck dumb when he finished reading it.

The girl was indeed a daughter of the JingDu family, but she already had a fiancé, and this fiancé was not You Lu or You Bo. The name written in the spouse column was a completely unfamiliar name. He actually guessed wrongly after spending such a long time on it!

You XiaoMo agitatedly scratched his head, messing his hair up in the process.

Ling Xiao calmly commented, “It seems that it should be the first one.”

You XiaoMo decided to get to the bottom of this. If it was really the first possibility, why did the You family have to hide his (her) identity? Was there some secret that could not be divulged?

“If you want to find out, you can ask Johnson. Even if he doesn’t know, he must know who knows.” Ling Xiao stood up and said to him.

“Okay.”

Thus, the two went to Johnson together.

Johnson was surprised by their arrival and did not expect that they were so interested in this matter. You XiaoMo had asked him for information at first, and now he was asking about the members on the list who had been killed. This was the first time they showed an interest in something after joining the White Shark, and it made him a little curious.

“What you mean is, you think that not all the students were on the list and there may be another one, but their name was not on the list for some reason. So you want to know who that student is, is that right?” Johnson calmly summarized after he heard what they had come for.

You XiaoMo instantly nodded.

Johnson suddenly broke into laughter, “I think you may have made a mistake. As far as I know, all the students killed by He Ping are on it. Not a single one was missing. There’s not another student like what you’re assuming.”

“That’s impossible!” You XiaoMo immediately denied.

Johnson was not upset by this. He directly stated, “Then tell me, why do you think there’s another student?”

You XiaoMo replied, “Because the person at Thunderclap University that said he would like to thank us was a member of the You family. But I’ve read the information and there’s no student surnamed You on it. If so, why did he want to thank us? That doesn’t make sense, does it?”
