"It turns out that things were like this back then." A heavy voice came from behind us. We turned around to find Zhao Yi standing there, looking at Mei Tiantian with an extremely complicated expression.
"Zhao... Teacher Zhao..." Mei Tiantian looked at Zhao Yi, her eyes filled with fear and guilt.
"Tian Tian, it seems we misunderstood you," Zhao Yi said softly.
"Teacher Zhao, how did you end up here?" I asked, surprised to see him in this place.
"Oh, I had a dinner appointment with a friend. My home is just in the nearby community, so we decided to meet here. Tian Tian, now Yu Xin has also encountered misfortune like Ke Yi... so it's time to clear up everyone's misunderstandings. I'll hold another class meeting soon to explain everything," Zhao Yi said with a hint of helplessness in his tone.
"Teacher Zhao... about Ke Yi..." Mei Tiantian began to say something but was interrupted by Zhao Yi.
Zhao Yi looked at me and said, "Then I'll leave this child in your care. Please take good care of her." With that, he walked inside.
It seemed that Zhao Yi had misunderstood the relationship between Mei Tiantian and me, but that was of little importance. I continued chatting with Mei Tiantian for a while. Although I told her about Yu Xin's death, I didn't mention our deductions; I only said that because the circumstances of her death were similar, she should try to recall more about last year's incident. However, progress was minimal. I always felt that Mei Tiantian had something she wasn't saying, but I couldn't get to the bottom of it. So I decided to change the subject a bit.
"When did you and Wang Zhe start dating?" I asked.
"During my repeat year. I transferred in and felt it was hard to fit into a new class. He was the first person willing to reach out to me, so I developed a good impression of him. Later, knowing that he lived quite far away near Taishan in the city center and would walk a long way to take me home every day made me like him even more," Mei Tiantian said, her voice tinged with sweetness.
"Oh, I see. It's no wonder in such an environment. By the way, does Wang Keyi have a boyfriend?" I asked.
"Ke Yi... I'm not sure, or it's hard to say," Mei Tiantian frowned.
“Why?” I pressed.
“Ke Yi only mentioned it once or twice by accident, but it seems like there is something. However, even we, who are closest to her, don’t know anything; we’ve never seen her get close to any boy. When we asked her about it, she didn’t deny it but always kept it a secret from us,” Mei Tiantian shook her head, a hint of helplessness in her eyes.
“Hmm…” If Wang Keyi had a boyfriend before her death, could it be possible that Yu Xin’s case was done by her former boyfriend?
“I have to go now, sorry,” Mei Tiantian suddenly said. “There’s a gathering for the review class tonight, so we need to hurry.”
We walked into the hall but didn’t see Zhao Yi; he was probably in one of the private rooms. Instead, we noticed Hua Yin looking at us with bright eyes. Hua Yin whispered something to Wang Zhe and then left with me. After leaving, we didn’t leave right away but walked back and forth on the Fisherman's Song boat, seemingly without any gains, but Hua Yin’s expression suggested she had found something.
“How was it? Did you see Wang Keyi’s former homeroom teacher Zhao Yi while you were outside?” As soon as we got home, Hua Yin eagerly asked.
I nodded, “Yes, we did. What about it?”
“He greeted Wang Zhe as soon as he came in.”
“Wang Zhe?” I was puzzled. How could Wang Zhe know Zhao Yi? According to Mei Tiantian, she hadn’t been in touch with Zhao Yi since she started the review class, and if Zhao Yi knew about Mei Tiantian and Wang Zhe, he definitely wouldn’t mistakenly think I was Mei Tiantian’s boyfriend.
“Yes! Do you know who Wang Zhe is? He is Wang Keyi’s cousin!” Hua Yin said excitedly.
“What? Are you sure? How do you know that?” I was somewhat surprised.
“Don’t get too excited; there’s even more exciting news coming. The reason I know Wang Zhe is Wang Keyi’s cousin is that when Zhao Yi walked in, he greeted Wang Zhe and said, ‘I was also very sad about your cousin’s incident last year; don’t take it too hard,’” Hua Yin explained.
"This..." Such words made the situation seem more complicated. I originally thought that Wang Zhe was just Mei Tiantian's boyfriend, but it turned out he was Wang Keyi's cousin. Perhaps Mei Tiantian still doesn't know this to this day.
