Hearing this, Xiaoqing’s body suddenly froze.

Helian Weiwei continued, “Back then, when Wu Taotao invited you guys, she had already arranged everything, including the game of the pawning your soul. Think about it carefully. Before that, you didn’t see her for nearly three months. When you saw her again, it was at a seaside where night had just fallen. None of you had seen her after the plastic surgery because she had been wearing a mask the entire time. Of course, if she had undergone major plastic surgery, it only made sense that she had to wear a mask to prevent infection. However, you guys had barbequed food for dinner that night, which is food that one should avoid after a surgery. It’s true that there are many things that you should avoid after plastic surgery, but if she was really afraid of infection, the barbecued food should have worried her more than the sea breeze. “Furthermore, all of you ended up drunk and then strangely all fell asleep. You have no idea what happened. By the time you woke up, all you saw was a corpse floating on the sea.”

“Yes, but Tongtong was standing right beside us,” the girl said.

Helian Weiwei’s voice was very indifferent. “The person standing beside you was not Miss Song at all, but Wu Taotao, who secretly changed her appearance. Actually, she had already undergone plastic surgery and had already passed the healing period, so she wasn’t afraid of eating barbecued food. She wore a mask the entire time, not to prevent any infection, but because she didn’t want you to see her appearance after plastic surgery, because that was the only way she could possibly complete her big plan. Next, she proposed to play a game of soul pawning. This game would allow her to avoid a lot of trouble after her murder. If anything happened, everyone would think that it was a ghost that was behind it. After all, the way this girl died was too tragic.”

“At that time, you were all still in your first year of university, so perhaps there were some things that you weren’t exposed to, and you didn’t carefully think about why the dead body would appear like this. If it really was a ghost that did it, then simply dragging the person into the sea to drown her would have been sufficient. Why bother to scratch her face beyond recognition?”

“In criminal psychology, this action has two meanings. The first is jealousy, and the second is deeper, and it’s called a cover-up. The murderer wanted to cover something up, and what she wanted to cover up was the fact that the one who died was Song Tongtong and not Wu Taotao!”

After such a shocking piece of reasoning was presented to them, the entire hall fell into an unprecedented silence.

Everyone’s expression was different. They all seemed to have been struck by lightning and didn’t come back to their senses for a long time.

Only Auntie Zhang suddenly burst into tears. She cried very sadly, because only she knew that what Helian Weiwei said was true.

In this half a year, the change in her Young Mistress was so obvious.

She remembered that in the past, when Song Tongtong came back for the summer holidays, she always wanted to eat her fried meatballs.

However, ever since this year, Song Tongtong found her dirty. Whenever she was unhappy, she would use something to hit her. Sometimes, she would even kick her fiercely and ask her to get lost.

Auntie Zhang was reluctant to leave. She was the one who watched her Young Mistress grow up.

Sometimes, she would always wonder why a healthy child would become like this.

Now she understood.

That was not...her Young Mistress at all.

When he saw Auntie Zhang behave like this, Old Master Song instantly understood something and sat back in his seat heavily, and his eyes that had never admitted defeat before were now clouded over with devastation. “Why? My granddaughter has never done anything to hurt or disappoint anyone. Why did she target Tongtong?”

“Because Miss Song has all the things she wants but will simply never have. Her family background, appearance, as well as her position in the hearts of her male classmates.” Helian Weiwei glanced at Yuan Wu as she mentioned this.

“In addition, she understands Miss Song’s situation very well. Miss Song lost her parents since she was young, and she has very few friends. General Song lives in the army all year round, so there’s only one Auntie Zhang who serves her at home. All these circumstances combined made her Wu Taotao’s target.”

“After she became Miss Song, she didn’t have to worry about being discovered at all. Perhaps Auntie Zhang would notice something, but it would never cross Auntie Zhang’s mind to think that this girl was literally a different girl. An old servant in the house was no threat to Wu Taotao at all. As long as she cut off her own previous social circle, she could use the identity of Song Tongtong to live in this world unscrupulously. She could buy the luxury goods she wanted to buy and live in the luxury mansion she wanted to live in.”

“No, this is too cruel!” The girl’s fingers trembled as she covered her lips. “Just because of these things, Taotao killed her own good friend?”

Helian Weiwei looked at the girl and let out a long sigh. “Do you still remember that you said that she insulted and beat up her mother over an iPhone? Then not long after that, her mother passed away from a car accident, but not only did Wu Taotao not seem sad, she even happily went abroad to spend whatever money she had. This proves how selfish Wu Taotao is. In her eyes, even her biological mother isn’t a big deal, never mind a supposedly good friend.”

The girl completely stopped talking. She didn’t know what to say. Because all of Helian Weiwei’s statements were so reasonable, it was hard for her not to believe them.

“In other words, I raised the enemy who killed my own granddaughter at home for half a year!” Old Master Song’s hand tightly grabbed onto his dragon-headed walking stick. His eyes were bloodshot and filled with hatred!

Master Zhang was already dumbstruck by listening to all this. He never thought that there would be such a thing in this world. Plastic surgery? A complete change in face?

This girl called Wu Taotao was really vicious to the point that it made everyone’s hair stand on end.

Wait a minute, something didn’t seem right.

Master Zhang’s eyes widened, and stuttered as he said to Helian Weiwei, “Just now...just now you said that the person who was dragged away wasn’t Song Tongtong, but one of us. What did you mean?”

“I meant it literally.” Helian Weiwei looked around and slowly said, “Wu Taotao, who is alive with Miss Song’s identity, has changed her face again. Right now, she is among us.”

Bang!

The university student named Xiaoqing immediately stood up.

When the others heard these words, they couldn’t help but feel their hearts tremble!

Once they thought about how Wu Taotao had killed someone and taken over that person’s face and identity and was sitting among them, they instantly felt a chill down their spine.

“Since she wanted to change her face to take over someone else, then it has to be a girl. If she changed herself to a boy, the height difference would give her away.” Helian Weiwei laughed quietly, “All along, we had a preconceived idea that Miss Song, or Wu Taotao with Miss Song’s face, had always stayed in the room and never came out. After all, she was a victim and was already afraid of ghosts to a certain extent, so it was impossible for her to walk around casually. But actually, Auntie Zhang saw her go out...”
