In January of this year, the three of them went out drinking and returned to their dormitory drunk. At that time, Yu Rong was reading in her dormitory.
Seeing Yu Rong's studious demeanor, the three drunkards became enraged. They dragged Yu Rong, who was reading, to the ground and began punching and kicking her, venting their dissatisfaction.
[Ha, what kind of trash are you? Poor and shabby, why does everyone praise you?]
[How could You Mengmeng like someone like you? You must have seduced her, right? How dare you?]
[Haha, since you're a dog, you should live like a dog! Always showing off, trying to impress others, huh? What, you think you're so great just because your teachers and classmates like you?]
Amidst their venting curses, Yu Rong's pleas for mercy were interspersed, but the more he begged, the more excited the three became. By the time they came to their senses, Yu Rong on the ground was already dead; they had beaten him to death.
Now, all three of them were completely sober.
[When they came to their senses and realized they had killed Yu Rong, their first reaction wasn't to turn themselves in, but rather how to dispose of Yu Rong's body! So, they used an axe to chop Yu Rong's body into pieces, stuffed them into garbage bags, and every day, under the guise of throwing out trash, they took Yu Rong's body out, then dug a pit and buried it at the bottom of the garbage dump...]
Ye Mo was shocked to learn that these three not only killed someone but also dismembered the body. Her expression hardened, and she asked, "Didn't anyone hear a sound when they were dismembering the body?"
888 sighed helplessly: [It was New Year's Day, and many students were on holiday. Their dormitory was next to another dormitory on one side, and that day, everyone in that dormitory had gone home.]
However, there were people in the dormitory downstairs. That night, someone in that dormitory heard chopping sounds coming from upstairs, but how could an ordinary person possibly imagine what those sounds were?
Who would have thought that the people upstairs were dismembering a body?
That's what 888 told Ye Mo, and that's what Ye Mo told Ye Rou. Visibly, Ye Rou's expression turned pale. She probably never imagined that her classmate would not only be beaten to death, but also dismembered after death.
Ye Rou felt nauseous.
Ye Mo held her water glass to her lips, patted her back, and asked with concern, "How are you? Are you alright?"
Ye Rou felt she wasn't doing well, but her pride wouldn't allow her to show weakness, so she stubbornly insisted, "I'm fine, I have no problems."
Ye Mo:... Shouldn't you look in the mirror before saying that? Your face is as white as a ghost.
"... Are you sure what you're saying is true?" Ye Rou looked up at her again, confirming several times, "You're not lying to me, are you?"
Ye Mo assured him, "Don't worry, I'm telling the truth. Even if I were the worst person, I wouldn't joke about something like this..."
Ye Rou fell silent.
Ye Mo asked her, "Are you going to call the police?"
Ye Rou nodded, her tone firm. "Yes! I'm going to call the police!"
Perhaps Ye Mo was really joking with her, and everything she said was false, but even if there was only a sliver of a possibility, Ye Rou still wanted to confirm it. Yu Rong and she were classmates after all, and if he really was dead, at the very least she wanted the truth about his death to come out.
Ye Rou acted immediately, picking up her phone and making a call.
Chapter 62 The Sixty-Second Melon What kind of melon is it? It's the one you eat sixty-two times...
The City S Public Security Bureau Criminal Investigation Brigade has recently been under considerable external pressure.
The S University has been missing for over two months, but his body has still not been found. Naturally, the criminal investigation team in charge of the case is the first to bear the brunt of the criticism from superiors and the outside world.
Because of this incident, the atmosphere in the Criminal Investigation Brigade has been extremely heavy lately. The office is filled with smoke all day long, and everyone is constantly smoking. Their eyes are almost red from the smoke.
The police, like Lin Rou, suspected that the missing student was most likely dead, because only a dead person could disappear without a trace.
However, as the saying goes, "If he's alive, we'll find him; if he's dead, we'll find his body." They practically dug up the entire S University, but still couldn't find the student's body.
"... Could the body not be at the school?" The police couldn't help but speculate.
However, the missing student's usual routine consisted mainly of going between the classroom, the cafeteria, the library, and the dormitory—a very simple life. Therefore, if he was indeed murdered, it is highly likely that he was still at school.
So, where exactly is this student's body hidden within the school?
Today, Wei Yiming, the captain of the criminal investigation team, received a special phone call.
"... What did you say?"
Those in the office saw their captain suddenly stand up from his chair after receiving the call, his expression instantly turning serious.
Are you sure?
"Yes!"
After he hung up the phone, everyone saw him turn to look at them and say in a deep voice, "There's news about the S University case. According to reliable information, the body is very likely buried under the S University garbage dump..."
The criminal investigation team was immediately dispatched and rushed to S University.
Inside the car, a team member asked Wei Yiming, "Captain, where did you get this news? Did someone see Yu Rong the day he had the accident?"
Upon hearing this question, Wei Yiming's eyes flickered for a moment, and he said, "I don't know where this information came from, but the person who called me was the bureau chief!"
"The bureau chief?!" The team members were shocked.
Wei Yiming: "In short, we don't know where the news came from, but regardless of whether it's true or false, even if there's only a one percent chance, we can't ignore it!"
"Captain, you're right," the team members agreed. "Maybe this one in ten thousand chance is the answer?"
While the criminal investigation team was rushing to S University, Yu Rong's three roommates gathered together on the other side.
"... He Jun, do you think we won't find out about Yu Rong's matter?" The speaker had a pointed, monkey-like face, which made him look mean and sarcastic.
Now, his face was filled with fear, looking around anxiously, like a frightened bird, as if the slightest noise would make him jump up.
The man called He Jun, however, seemed completely unfazed by the question. He gave the young man who had spoken a warning look and said indifferently, "What does Yu Rong Yu Rong's matter have to do with us?"
"Exactly." Cai Hong'an chimed in from the other side, sighing with feigned concern, "We roommates are really worried about Yu Rong's Yu Rong, but we don't know where he is... We just hope the police can find Yu Rong soon, so we won't have to worry about him anymore."
Zhang Fu bit his finger and said, "But I've been having this dream lately, that Yu Rong comes to take revenge on us... He told me he's in so much pain and wants me to go down and keep him company. Do you think he... ah!"
Before he could finish speaking, his words turned into a short, startled scream.
He Jun grabbed his collar, pulled him close, and looked at him coldly, saying in a chilling voice, "Let me tell you, none of the three of us know anything about Yu Rong's disappearance! Also, if you don't want to be followed by the police, you'd better keep what happened that day to yourself, pretend it never happened, and don't give me this fuss, understand?"
Zhang Fu was terrified by his cold gaze and stammered, "I... I understand..."
He Jun released his grip on the man's collar, shoved him away abruptly, and snorted coldly, "You know that's good... Let me tell you, if anything goes wrong because of you, I'll definitely hold you accountable."
