Chapter 3 1. Different motives

Qin Xianxian is a beautiful girl who just entered her sophomore year.Because of the program of the dance club, she came to Xichuan University a week in advance.On the day of Xu Dan's accident, the dance club did not notify her to go to the rehearsal room, because Xu Dan was definitely the protagonist, and she was just Xu Dan's substitute, so it didn't matter whether she went or not.Therefore, she did not see the bloody scene outside the teaching building. At noon that day, Qin Xianxian was in the dormitory. He first heard the sound of a police siren outside the window. A police car drove into the campus, and then heard the siren of an ambulance.In the afternoon, the instructor of the dance club came to Qin Xianxian's dormitory and told her about Xu Dan being doused with sulfuric acid.When she heard the news, she was stunned at first, and then tears welled up in her eyes.

Although Qin Xianxian has always been Xu Dan's substitute, she also believes from the bottom of her heart that Xu Dan was born for dancing.It's a pity that Xu Dan's face was ruined by sulfuric acid, and she can no longer perform on stage.The murderer who poured acid on Xu Dan's face is really perverted.How much hatred is needed to do such a horrible thing! At the same time, the instructor told Qin Xianxian that because of Xu Dan's injury, her original role as the number one female was also vacated, so Qin Xianxian could only take over.Qin Xianxian thought for a while, and then said to the instructor: "Can you let me think about it again?"

After the instructor of the dance club left, Qin Xianxian sat on the bed without saying a word, and she was thinking, tears kept slipping from the corners of her eyes.After a while, she stood up, left the dormitory, and walked to the campus hair salon not far from the dormitory. The campus hair salon is run by a twenty-seven-year-old woman.The proprietress's surname is Li, and everyone calls her Sister Li.Sister Li is very beautiful, skilled in craftsmanship, and very patient. Although the house has not been opened for a few days, she has made friends with many girls in Xichuan University.Because she is older and has more experience, many girls like to ask her for advice when they encounter troubles in life.

Sitting in the hairdressing room, Qin Xianxian, Sister Li stroked her soft long hair, and asked, "Did you wash your hair just now?" Qin Xianxian nodded, and then told Sister Li what happened to her. Sister Li laughed like a big sister, and she said slowly and gracefully to Qin Xianxian: "Don't be sad, life must go on. As long as there is dancing, there is hope in life! You should take over Xu Dan's That role." Qin Xianxian bit her lip and nodded vigorously. After returning to the dormitory, Qin Xianxian sighed quietly, put on her practice clothes silently, and practiced the basic skills alone in the dormitory.After a while, she seeped a thin layer of sweat all over her body.When she was practicing vigorously, she suddenly heard someone knocking on the door.

Outside the door, stood a handsome young policeman in uniform. He looked like he should be no more than thirty years old. "Excuse me, is this classmate Qin Xianxian?" The young policeman asked politely, "My name is Zhou Yuanyi, and I have something to ask you." "Is it for Xu Dan's business?" Qin Xianxian stroked the long hair hanging from his forehead, wiped off the sweat, and stared at Zhou Yuanyi with wide eyes. "How do you know?" Zhou Yuanyi was slightly curious.He faintly realized that the beautiful girl in front of him was not as simple as he imagined.

Qin Xianxian smiled and said, "Not only do I know that you came to me because of Xu Dan's affairs, but I also know that you suspect that I am the murderer who threw acid." "Why do you think so?" Zhou Yuanyi frowned. Qin Xianxian blinked her eyes and said, "It's very simple. In terms of motivation, you will definitely investigate who will be the beneficiary of this incident after Xu Dan's face was splashed with sulfuric acid. It's a pity that she was destroyed. Clearly, I can no longer be the number one female in the dance club, and her role has naturally become mine. I am the one who has vested interests, and it is impossible for you to doubt me."

"Hehe, the little girl is good at analysis." Zhou Yuanyi smiled, "Tell me, what other reasoning do you have?" Qin Xianxian bit her lip and asked first, "Excuse me, is Xu Dan awake?" Zhou Yuanyi replied: "She is already awake." Qin Xianxian thought for a while and said, "When the sulfuric acid is splashed on the face, it will immediately turn into steam, which will be sucked into Xu Dan's throat, causing severe burns and making her speechless." "Yes, you are quite right. Indeed, she can't speak now and is undergoing nebulization treatment." Zhou Yuanyi nodded.

"Then, she must be able to use a pen to tell you that the person who poured acid on her is a masked person, right?" "How do you know?" Zhou Yuanyi was really surprised this time. "Because...if the murderer hadn't masked his face, then Xu Dan would have told you who that person was, and you wouldn't have come here to question me on such a hot afternoon, but went to catch the murderer— You know, I'm not the one who throws acid!" Qin Xianxian talked eloquently. Zhou Yuanyi was overwhelmed by the reasoning ability of the beautiful girl in front of him, but then he sighed and said, "That's right, the murderer who poured sulfuric acid wore a Halloween skull mask and a black robe, Xu Dan looked She could not tell the size of the murderer. She could only see that the murderer was a little short, so she suspected it was a certain girl. Unfortunately, as you said, the first person Xu Dan suspected was you. So, please tell me, today's noon When, where were you? What were you doing?"

Qin Xianxian pursed her lips and said, "If you want my alibi, I can only say, sorry. I stayed in the dormitory alone at noon today. After washing my hair, I sat by the window and read a book. No one came for me. Testify." "That's troublesome..." Zhou Yuanyi felt a little regretful. "However, I think..." Qin Xianxian continued, "I don't think you should think that I am the murderer just because I have no alibi. If you want to prove that I am the murderer, you should look for evidence that can prove that I was teaching at the time." Witnesses in the building."

"Hehe." Zhou Yuanyi smiled, "You are right. Now, we are just conducting a routine investigation. But to be honest, from the motive point of view, you are indeed suspected. Apart from you, we can't think of anyone else They will kill Xu Dan." Qin Xianxian also laughed. She walked to the window and said leisurely: "Is the motive that you police can think of really limited to this? In my opinion, at least there are other possibilities of motive." "Oh?! Tell me." Zhou Yuanyi also walked to the window and asked. "For example, an ugly girl threw acid on Xu Dan's face because she was jealous of Xu Dan's beauty. It is even possible that this ugly girl used to be a beautiful woman, but her A bad person poured acid on her face, so she hates girls with pretty faces, and dreams of making all the pretty girls look like her."

"This... Isn't this too bizarre?" Zhou Yuanyi said.However, he immediately fell silent. Under the campus boulevard outside the window, a girl was slowly walking down the dormitory with a bottle of water.The girl was wearing a hat, a black tulle covering her face.Looking down from above, Zhou Yuanyi could vaguely see that the girl's face was full of bumps, as if she had been splashed with sulfuric acid. "Her name is Chen Ziwei, a third-year student. She was also a member of the dance club when she was a freshman. But when she was a sophomore, she rejected a boy's courtship, and that boy threw acid on her face..." Qin Xianxian said slowly next to Zhou Yuanyi's ear.
