Tan Ming did not hear him speak, but he could deeply sense Yan Qing's panic and confusion.
He said, "The murderer is not you; it's He Zhengwei!"
A voice echoed: "The wizard initiates a vote. The votes are now cast: the wizard votes to kill Meihua, the executioner votes to kill Meihua, the king votes to kill Meihua."
The voting concluded.
"Congratulations, the executioner has successfully killed the murderer. However, since the murderer self-destructed and is already dead, disciplinary action cannot be taken, so the game cannot end," the voice stated coldly.
"What? What does that mean?" Qi Qiuluo exclaimed, her eyes wide with disbelief.
Fan Xiaonan looked puzzled.
"The murderer is actually He Zhengwei? But wasn't He Zhengwei dead from the very beginning?"
And Meihua...
Tan Ming began to piece together information he had seen in the office. Under Jiang Jie's makeup exam paper was a thesis document along with a message sheet belonging to He Zhengwei.
Tan Ming pondered why Jiang Jie had figured out who the murderer was in the end. He searched for commonalities between the two and discovered that He Zhengwei also hailed from Sheng Nanping City, Huixian, Luohua Village. Jiang Jie did too.
Xiao Wang was from there as well.
Why was Jiang Jie labeled as the False Messenger?
Why was it specifically Jiang Jie who was the False Messenger?
It felt like a farce; both in and out of the play, Jiang Jie's identity was merely that of a stand-in.
What a coincidence!
There could only be one possibility: the person who set this up knew Jiang Jie and had long realized she was not really Jiang Jie.
The switch between Jiang Jie and Jiang Shu occurred after the college entrance examination; university classmates would have no way of knowing who Jiang Jie truly was—only those familiar with her would know. And coincidentally, He Zhengwei shared the same origin as Jiang Jie.
But evidently, Jiang Jie did not recognize He Zhengwei.
It was He Zhengwei that Jiang Jie recognized, not Jiang Shu as a substitute!
Jiang Jie might have thought of something and guessed that the culprit was He Zhengwei. Tan Ming, on the other hand, suspected that He Zhengwei had set a trap. What truly raised his suspicion was during the Time Rewind incident in the dormitory when Zhao Xiang discovered someone playing the violin, but that person had hidden in the restroom. That person was He Zhengwei.
Moreover, he had encountered He Zhengwei at the bar. In that fleeting moment when he turned around, He Zhengwei's gaze fell on Zhao Xiang behind the scenes, while Zhao Xiang's attention was focused on Yan Qing on stage! Zhao Xiang had composed a piece for Yan Qing as a Graduation Gift. That gift was placed in the most prominent spot on Zhao Xiang's desk; even someone as carefree as Qi Qiuluo could notice it, so there was no way He Zhengwei could have missed it. He realized that Zhao Xiang had feelings for Yan Qing.
From the very beginning, Yan Qing had been targeted. The clue from the dormitory, along with the Prophet predicting that he was the murderer, were all not mere coincidences! Tan Ming speculated that He Zhengwei felt both love and hatred. As for being completely certain, it was due to that Thesis in the Office. The last page contained a Detection Report with a plagiarism rate of ninety-three percent.
Fan Xiaonan did not mishear; that Thesis belonged to Zhao Xiang's roommate, but it was not Yan Qing's—it was He Zhengwei's! He Zhengwei might be an extreme person; he loved someone he could not have. With graduation approaching and his Thesis encountering an unexpected incident, jealousy and hatred transformed him into someone unrecognizable—he sought revenge! Yet, he still loved Zhao Xiang; even in his quest for vengeance, he did not involve Zhao Xiang in this turmoil.
In the end, it all comes down to coincidence.
He Zhengwei's profile indicates that his parents divorced when he was fifteen, and he lived with his father. There are so many instances of the number fifteen.
Then there's He Zhengwei's identity. The Plum Blossom Traveler. The Plum Blossom is shrouded in mystery. Originally, she was a mage, but the mage turned out to be a False Messenger. This means that Jiang Jie is not a true messenger; therefore, the cards in her possession are fake. The real cards can only be held by He Zhengwei.
