"Su Min, can you come to our dormitory at night?" Lin Xiao Yan asked.

Su Min thought for a moment, "Can I just go like this?"

"Yes, the dorm-keeper aunt won't be checking my dorm, so it doesn't matter what you wear," Lin Xian Yan replied.

Su Min was happy when he heard that.

"Okay, then I'll go," he agreed.

Lin Yiri cut in, "I want to go, too!"

"No," Lin Xiao Yan rejected him. "Lin Yiri, your appearance is too robust. You can come only if you wear a skirt and pretend to be a girl."

Lin Yiri received a big blow.

However, the topic had moved on; Lin Xian Yan purpose in coming here was not this, but another.

She talked about the clues she had heard, "The girl who jumped off the building was Su Ya, and the person who hung herself was Jiang Hui."

Su Min set the picture aside.

The girl on the left was who they heard jumped off the office building when they were on the stairs; the girl on the right was who they saw in the sealed dormitory last night.

"How did they die?" Su Min asked.

Lin Xiao Yan passed over her cell phone, "The people I talked to said that Jiang Hui hung herself in the dormitory. Her body was discovered by the dorm-keeper aunt during the evening."

Death by hanging on a ceiling fan was really horror-movie-like.

It was during the holidays, so no one knew that there was someone in the dorm. The dorm-keeper aunt was checking to see if the rooms were locked when she saw that one room was open. Upon entering, she met face-to-face with Jiang Hui's corpse hanging under the ceiling fan.

Afterwards, the school had suppress this news.

"Did she die on Teacher Chen's birthday?"

Su Min looked through the records, "No, it was on the day before."

Jiang Hui died one day before Teacher Chen's birthday, so the birthday card wasn't sent.

Su Ya should've been the one who died on his birthday. It was unknown if she had jumped on her own freewill or if she had been forced.

At the same time, there was a fire in the office.

"I also find it strange," Lin Yiri said. "Why did she hanged herself the day before? Unless it was something else, the public statement said that it was a suicide."

Is it really a suicide?

Lin Yiri continued, "What if she failed a course? The people I asked said Teacher Chen's failing rate was pretty high. Maybe she failed too many courses and received too much stimulus."

Lin Xiao Yan revealed some doubts, "It's unlikely..."

She had failed numerous times but never thought of killing herself... However, she shouldn't put other people under the same category.

After all, this school was a well-known university with an inhumane percentage of students who couldn't graduate.

Countless of thoughts flashed through Su Min's mind, "I'm more inclined to believe that Teacher Chen had done something."

There were water stains on the birthday card, and he believed those were tears.

It was dropped in-between the bedplates and hadn't been found until now. If Teacher Chen had nothing to do with it, she should have given it to him.
