The Anarchic Consort

“She left the room in order to carry out her first murder.” Helian Weiwei’s fingers tapped on the table. “From the moment Master Wufan entered this villa, he had been feeling uneasy. When General Song the seaside incident, he didn’t even listen to what Master Zhang wanted to say to him.”

“I’m guessing that Master Wufan must have sensed something, and has been in contact with Wu Taotao after she transformed into Miss Song. After all, he came to the Song house before, so there’s nothing strange about the two of them having a transaction.” Helian Weiwei raised her eyes and glanced at Master Zhang. “Everyone knows that the cell phone signal in the villa is very poor, so unless one gets connected to the internet, there’s no way to make a call. However, Master Wufan said that he was waiting for a call. From this, it can be seen that the call he was waiting for was not made to his cell phone, but to the landline in the room. Every room we stay in has a landline, and every room can call and talk to each other. As long as she knows which room Master Wufan is in, she can just call him to come out and then kill him.”

“There were no wounds on Master Wufan’s body and it was obvious that he was suffocated to death. However, we didn’t hear any sounds of struggle throughout the entire thing. It is true that the rain was very heavy, but Master Wufan was an adult man with a certain level of strength, so it would take some time to drown him. That way, it would be impossible for Deputy Liang, who was stationed outside the villa, to not hear a single sound. However, Master Wufan died in an exceptionally quiet manner. There was no sound at all. This means that he died without suspecting anything. In other words, it was an acquaintance who committed the crime.”

“She killed Master Wufan to silence him. But she ended up committing her second murder in such a hurry because killing Master Wufan had raised suspicions that the murderer was a human and not a ghost.”

“I think that when we were discussing in the hall, Wu Taotao should have been listening in a corner. She hated me very much. She hated me to the core because it was very likely that her plan would be ruined by me. That’s why after she killed Master Wufan, she immediately killed a second person.”

“Because the second person was her real target.”

“She had been preparing for this murder for more than two months, or perhaps even earlier. First, she brought up the incident at the beach, then she used it as an excuse to lock herself up in her room. But actually, she didn’t come out not because she was afraid of some evil spirit, but because she had already changed into someone else’s appearance, and it would be trouble if others saw her.”

“After that, she started to act according to the plan. She deliberately put on the clothes that she wore when she was Wu Taotao and made the victim wear Miss Song’s clothes. Firstly, she wanted everyone to believe that it was a ghost who came to claim her life and not a murderer. Secondly, she could naturally have a new identity and make the real person disappear along with Song Tongtong’s identity. By then, everyone would have fallen into a deeper terror because they would think that Wu Taotao’s ghost took Song Tongtong away. They will never believe that it was a human who killed her. In this way, she can live forever with her new identity and never be discovered!”

“It’s too scary. Such a person is too scary.” The girl hugged her arm and even her voice was trembling.

The person sitting next to her might be the murderer.

This kind of feeling made her hair stand on end.

However, Yuan Wu’s first reaction was not terror, but anger. He turned his head and looked at Xiaoqing sitting at the back. “It’s you, right? Only you have been targeting Master Helian. You keep calling her a liar, and you’ve involved us in your lies. Weren’t you the one who pointed at the figure outside the window and claimed that Wu Taotao had come back to take all of us away?”

“What kind of joke is this?” Xiaoqing’s face turned pale. “I just don’t believe this Master Helian. At that time, everyone clearly saw the figure outside the window. Wouldn’t you think that it’s a ghost? Everything that this Master Helian has said is simply too unbelievable. She changed her face? And twice in a row? Is this really possible?” As she spoke, Xiaoqing turned her head to look at Old Master Song. “General Song, do you think this is possible?”

Old Master Song’s eyes exuded the aura of a military general, and he refuted her immediately. “It’s possible.”

Xiaoqing was stunned, and then anxiously said, “General Song, don’t be fooled by this person. If it really was a human, then how do you explain the scene that Deputy Liang saw? What kind of person could be so fast and disappear in the blink of an eye, unless it was a ghost?!”

“This problem is very easy to solve.” Helian Weiwei leaned back and sat lazily on the wooden chair with her legs slightly crossed.

Xiaoqing paused and her face was full of astonishment, “What did you say? It’s very easy to solve?”

“But I’m too lazy to talk to you anymore.” Helian Weiwei smiled, her eyes were cold, “So from now on, you’d better shut up.”

Xiaoqing was one who spoke and acted very freely all her life and she had never been treated like this. Her whole face was flushed red as she stared at Helian Weiwei.

Helian Weiwei didn’t look at her again, but her gaze fell on another person. “If this Xiaoqing was half as smart as you, I wouldn’t have to put in so much effort. Don’t you think so, Miss Wu Taotao?”

In an instant, everyone followed her gaze and looked over.

Was that…the witch, Li Ya?

Li Ya herself met their gazes with confusion, as if she did not know what was going on.

“It’s you. There’s no need to look left and right.” Helian Weiwei used a hand to lean against the table. She slowly stood up and looked down at her.

Li Ya pointed at herself. Her gentle and beautiful voice trembled slightly. “You suspect it’s me?”

“That’s impossible.” No one felt that there was anything wrong with Li Ya.

“I say, you must be careful when identifying the murderer.” Master Zhang looked at Helian Weiwei and said, “If you identify the wrong person, the real Wu Taotao will be safe, and that would be really dangerous.”

Helian Weiwei raised an eyebrow and glanced at him with a smile. “Master Zhang, from just now, you and that Xiaoqing have been an obstruction to me and you’ve been such a great help to the murderer. I know that you have some other ideas about Miss Li Ya, but if you say one more word, get lost immediately.”

“Miss Helian.” Li Ya opened her mouth. “Master Zhang is also afraid that the real murderer will escape punishment, that’s why he reminded you. Why do you have to speak so harshly? If you suspect that I’m the murderer, then bring out the evidence. Something like a change of face is too absurd. We can’t just follow your train of thought and allow you to just name anyone as a murderer. This is treating life as child’s play.”

Helian Weiwei curved her thin lips and lowered her face a little, but her eyes were cold. “Wu Taotao, do you think you’ve done all these things secretly enough and others won’t see through your tricks?”
