"I find him very strange. Although he appears sunny on the outside, he actually doesn't have a single friend. He doesn't even interact with outsiders. He always goes around alone. But five years ago, he used to be a very cheerful person."
"What reason caused such a cheerful person to become so reclusive? Without a doubt, he's keeping a secret, a secret that absolutely cannot be known by others."
"Therefore, he chose to be alone. But he is a man after all, and in these past few years, he has been madly looking for women, but he hasn't had a steady girlfriend."
"Because he's afraid that these women might expose his biggest secret."
I nodded thoughtfully and looked at Li Tongtian, asking, "I'm afraid it's precisely this secret that allowed him to escape Han Qianqian's pursuit."
"That's right," Li Tongtian said. "After Han Qianqian turned into a fierce ghost, the first person she wanted to find was Li Yang. As far as I know, Li Yang was at the school at the time. Yet, thirty-seven people died in one day, and he was completely unharmed."
"Isn't that strange? Although it seems Master Du Mo helped him, I suspect someone else was involved."
Wu Yong said impatiently, "Why are you saying so much? Our top priority right now is to find Li Yang."
"He's at home right now," Li Tongtian said, taking out a map and pointing to a spot. "This is his home, in a very remote town. He has to drive for a long time every time he goes to work."
"This indicates there must be something unspeakable in his house. Perhaps those missing women are all in his house."
"Let's go to his house," I decided immediately.
"Then let's go," Li Tongtian said, stepping on the gas pedal, and the car started moving.
No one spoke on the way. It wasn't until we were about to get out of the car that I asked, "You're driving so fast, you're clearly speeding. Aren't you afraid of getting points deducted?"
"You need a driver's license to get points deducted," Li Tongtian replied.
I was speechless.
The gloomy, remote town was located in the suburbs. It was extremely secluded. Although it was night, there were small stalls everywhere. After we got out of the car, we immediately found Li Yang's house.
It was a two-story Western-style house with a large yard, and the gate was tightly shut.
The three of us decided to climb over the wall, but there was barbed wire on it. Seeing this, Li Tongtian frowned. "Electric fence. Let's not go over."
"Why is this like a prison?" Wu Yong asked in surprise.
"This is probably a prison," Li Tongtian said.
As we were helpless with the front gate, we suddenly heard a car approaching from a distance. The three of us quickly hid to the side. We saw that the person driving was actually Li Yang.
Li Yang got out of the car, then reached out, opened the gate, and carried someone on his back.
In the moonlight, I could see that it was that woman on Li Yang's back. She was covered in scars, her face was disheveled, and her mouth was taped shut.
"Baby, we're finally home. Let's enjoy ourselves," Li Yang said with a perverted smile, his face twisted as if he were a madman. He raised his arm, took out his key, and opened the gate directly before turning and walking inside.
At this moment, Li Tongtian took a few photos with his phone. Then he said to us, "Let's go. We should leave here."
"Aren't we going to find a way in?" Wu Yong asked.
"There's no need. I suspect Li Yang is a perverted lunatic. His house must have become a torture chamber. If we go in, we might be attacked by him. Let's leave first," Li Tongtian said.
I also nodded in agreement. Li Yang's appearance just now was truly terrifying.
After we returned, Li Tongtian told us, "Tomorrow, I'll deal with him."
Chapter 33: Getting What One Desires
The next day, I hurried into the classroom. Wu Yong had a strange look on his face and asked, "Does that Li Tongtian really have a way to deal with Li Yang?"
"I believe him. Let's wait and see," I said.
We spent the entire morning in a daze, waiting. At noon, Li Tongtian suddenly called and asked us to come to the entrance of the abandoned school.
When we arrived, he was standing behind the gate, his gaze shifting uncertainly.
Seeing me, he smiled and said, "You're here just in time. The show is about to begin."
"Are you sure Li Yang will come?" I asked in surprise.
"He will definitely come," Li Tongtian said confidently.
"Why?" I asked.
"With the photos I have in my hand, Li Yang might be able to escape Han Qianqian's pursuit, but I don't believe he can escape the police," Li Tongtian said.
"That's true. Li Yang's arrogance relies on his father. If he becomes a wanted criminal, his father won't be able to help him," Wu Yong said.
We waited silently. After a while, Li Yang indeed appeared.
This time, his face was no longer gentle, only filled with endless coldness and malice.
Seeing Li Tongtian, he extended his hand and said, "Where are the photos?"
"I have plenty of photos, it all depends on whether you behave," Li Tongtian said with a smile.
"Hmph, you think one photo can deal with me?" Li Yang looked at him with disdain, his voice arrogant. "You should know who my father is. One photo doesn't prove anything. Anyone would think it's fake."
"If that's the case, why are you so afraid?" Li Tongtian looked at him with disdain. "I admit, at that time, you might have other ways. But it would definitely cause a lot of trouble."
"Since you know, why are you looking for trouble?" Li Yang looked at him, his eyes filled with disgust. "Why don't you just be your student union president?"
"All I want to know now is, if I give this photo to the police, how much trouble will you be in?" Li Tongtian said, shaking his phone casually.
Li Yang stared at us with a dark expression, as if he wanted to engrave us in his memory.
He sighed helplessly and looked at Li Tongtian, saying, "Tell me, if you want money, I'll give you as much as you want."
