Chapter 248 The Conflict Between Them
"So the conflict between you and Wu Mengjie is limited to this. Have you seen her again after that?" Wu Qingluan restrained her emotions and asked again.
"Yes, I have seen her. She was in class. But I haven't seen her in the past few days. I heard that she took a leave?" Bu Yao thought for a while, shook her head, and answered Wu Qingluan's question.
"Do you know this boy?"
Seeing that this was all she knew, Wu Qingluan finally took out the photos she found in Wu Mengjie's dormitory.
Wu Mengjie took the photo and looked at it curiously, then shook her head reflexively: "I don't know him, I've never seen him before. Who is this guy, miss? Could he be Wu Mengjie's tall, rich and handsome boyfriend?"
She was very smart and knew that Wu Qingluan took out the photo and asked her about it, which must be related to Wu Mengjie, so she asked out of curiosity.
Wu Qingluan did not answer her question directly. Seeing that she looked at the person in the photo for a long time without any sign of recognition, she took the photo from her and stood up: "It's okay if you don't recognize him. Also, we will investigate the true relationship between your brother and Wu Mengjie. If you have any questions, I hope you can help."
"Of course, I'm happy to help." Bu Yao looked at Wu Qingluan with a smile, but at this moment Wu Qingluan saw a hint of impatience in her eyes. She thought that she just wanted her to leave early because of her suspicion. Wu Qingluan didn't think much about it. She said a few polite words and left the dormitory building.
Gu Nankai and his team's work was almost finished. Not long after Wu Qingluan met up with them, she received a call from Gao Yuan.
Wu Mengjie’s off-campus residence has been found!
Gu Nankai was delighted, and quickly rushed over with Wu Qingluan and Cao Cang to meet him.
Wu Mengjie's off-campus residence is in a nice neighborhood nearby. When everyone arrived, Gao Yuan was waiting at the door. His eyes lit up when he saw everyone coming, and he immediately explained to everyone: "The landlord doesn't allow us to open the lock without permission. We have to wait for her to come over, so we have to wait before we can go in."
Gu Nankai nodded and didn't care. He walked forward a few steps and stood at the door. He looked at the door in front of him and the surrounding environment. Wu Qingluan mentioned at the side: "Wu Mengjie lives in a very high-end place."
Gao Yuan and the others just smiled. Before they could say anything, Wu Qingluan said proudly, "Guess what I found in Wu Mengjie's dormitory this time?"
"What?"
She successfully attracted everyone's attention. Everyone's eyes were filled with curiosity. Wu Qingluan smiled proudly and quickly took out the photo and showed it to everyone: "See? This man is very likely the man Wu Mengjie has a crush on. This photo is in almost every book Wu Mengjie has. You can imagine how much Wu Mengjie cares about this man."
Gu Nankai's eyes tightened, and he took the photo from Wu Qingluan, looked at it carefully for a few times, and then asked, "Have you found out the identity of this boy?"
Speaking of this, Wu Qingluan shook her head in disappointment: "Not yet. I asked Wu Mengjie's roommates, and none of them knew this boy. I also asked a girl who grew up with Wu Mengjie, and that girl said she had never seen this boy either, so his identity is still a mystery."
"Do you think this boy is the protagonist of the condom we found in the lab?"
Gao Yuan chuckled and said something evilly.
"Yes, there are residual body fluids in the condom. Maybe it has something to do with this boy." Cao Cang said at the side. Gu Nankai was just about to let Cao Cang see the photo, but just as he was about to speak, the elevator next to him opened and a fat woman came out. When she saw them, she asked, "Are you the police?"
Gao Yuan had already spoken to her first. He recognized her by the sound of her voice and quickly stepped forward and asked with a smile, "Ms. Wang, right? We just spoke."
With their identities confirmed, the landlord glanced at the few people and suddenly asked them worriedly, "Officer, what happened to this house? Did the girl inside commit a crime? Will it endanger my house? I bought this house less than two years ago. What should I do if something happens?"
After listening to her rambling for a long time, Gao Yuan looked at Gu Nankai and the others in silence, and quickly said, "Don't worry, this has nothing to do with your house. No one died in your house. We are just here to investigate some information. When the time comes, you can rent it out after we take out the things inside."
"What! Someone's dead?"
The landlord was going to open the door, but when she heard Gao Yuan's words, her hands trembled and the keys fell to the ground. She looked at Gao Yuan in panic, full of fear: "Officer, this has nothing to do with me. I haven't been here since the house was rented out. The rent was paid in one lump sum for four years. I didn't know anything would happen..."
Seeing that she was busy disclaiming her responsibility without even understanding the situation, Gao Yuan felt a little speechless. He squatted down and picked up the key, and did not give it to the landlord. He opened the door by himself and said casually: "Don't worry, this matter has nothing to do with you. As long as you don't go out and say that the person who rented your house died, it will be fine. If you can't control your desire to talk, then I can't guarantee it. After all, people always like to talk nonsense."
With a click, Gao Yuan opened the door. He turned around and looked at the landlord, smiling and asked, "Don't you think so, sister?"
The woman was obviously frightened by the word death and dared not move. She nodded blankly after hearing Gao Yuan's words. When Gao Yuan and the others had opened the door and went in, she realized belatedly that the person did not die in her own house. Her previous worries were indeed unnecessary. As long as she didn't say anything, there would be no connection between this house and the dead person.
Thinking of this, she finally felt better and the knot in her heart was quickly untied.
"Big sister, let's do this. We are going to collect evidence now. It's a bit inconvenient for you to be here. How about this? Let's finish the investigation and let her family move all the things here out before notifying you?"
Not long after the landlord went in, Gu Nankai said this to the landlord. The landlord stood there with some confusion, but she was not the kind of person who would make a fuss. Seeing that the room was very clean and nothing was damaged, and since it was a matter of life and death, she was willing to cooperate with the police to quickly resolve the matter. Without saying much, she followed Gu Nankai's statement and left.
The house that Wu Mengjie rented has two bedrooms and a living room. It seems that Wu Mengjie added a lot of things in it after she moved in. It is obvious that it is decorated according to the girl's preferences. Whether it is the carpet on the floor or the various Nordic-style outfits, every place exudes the preferences of a little girl.
"I didn't expect Wu Mengjie to be so girly at heart. Look how girly and warm this home is. She's a little different from what I know."
Wu Qingluan stood in the living room and looked around before saying this.
Gu Nankai raised his eyebrows: "What kind of person is Wu Mengjie that you know?"
Wu Qingluan curled her lips and said, "Cold, arrogant, unkind, and a loner. Anyway, these are two completely opposite personalities to the person reflected by this house."
"Usually, in such contrasting situations, we can discover more."
