The next day, Gu Chen and Xiao Liu returned.
Gu Chen stroked his beard and said, "Gao Rui's so-called girlfriend is actually someone he paid to pretend. Gao Rui gave her five thousand yuan to act as his girlfriend every night and chat with him, specifically instructing her to argue about breaking up."
"That woman is a middle-aged lady in her forties. When we found her and revealed our identities, she spilled everything," Gu Chen continued, his expression one of disbelief. "This started about a week ago. If Gao Rui hadn't given her a two-thousand yuan deposit, she would have thought she was dealing with a lunatic."
Upon hearing Gu Chen mention a week ago, Xiao Liu chimed in, "What a coincidence! After I went to that hospital and used a little trick, the attending physician told me the real situation regarding Zhang Mingliang. In fact, the surgery for Zhang Mingliang was only a week ago; he lied when you first visited."
Xiao Liu sat on the sofa, shaking his head as he spoke. "The reason he lied was that Zhang Mingliang secretly gave him one hundred thousand yuan to say so. The doctor mentioned that according to procedure, a Gender Reassignment Surgery requires at least a month of observation, but he compromised for the money."
I snapped my fingers and said to the two of them, "Now we just need to figure out one thing for the truth to come out."
"What thing?" they asked.
"How to push back the time of death of the body by five days." I looked through the office window at the distant light shining from the Autopsy Room.
An hour later, Guan Zengbin arrived at the office looking dejected.
"How did it go?" I asked.
Even though all the information had converged into a complete line of reasoning in my mind, this was still the most critical piece. If Guan Zengbin couldn't determine the actual time of death, then everything I had was merely speculation without substantial evidence.
Guan Zengbin glanced at me and said with frustration, "You're right; I was indeed deceived."
"The body had undergone temperature control, which led me to misestimate the time of death. Moreover, it had decomposed too severely for accurate identification. The previous conclusion was largely based on estimating Zhang Mingliang's time of death, which is why it was so far off." Guan Zengbin's fingers were drawing circles in front of his stomach. "I never expected someone could be this skilled..."
I reached out and tapped him lightly on the head. "If you had been this meticulous during your first examination of the body, we wouldn't have wasted so much time. Now you believe it, right? Gao Rui could never have killed someone who was already dead; everything afterward was fabricated by Gao Rui."
"Gao Rui, this is all for Teacher Hu Jiajia," Guan Zengbin slammed his right fist against the back of the sofa. "It's all that damned Principal Zhang's fault. If someone had exposed his evil deeds sooner, Teacher Hu Jiajia wouldn't have suffered sexual assault, and she wouldn't have killed anyone."
But there are no 'ifs' in this world, and Guan Zengbin was wrong.
"Put Gao Rui and Hu Jiajia in the same interrogation room. I want to tell them a story," I said slowly.
Gao Rui and Hu Jiajia met for the first time after Gao Rui's confession.
The moment Hu Jiajia saw Gao Rui, she burst into tears.
"Why did you do this? I was the one who killed him. Why would you take the blame for me? Murder requires paying with your life; don't you know that? Why are you so foolish? A woman like me isn't worth you doing this," Hu Jiajia cried.
Gao Rui stared at Hu Jiajia, fixated on her.
"I like you, Gao Rui. I love you!" Hu Jiajia shouted.
It's strange how people often choose to reveal their true feelings at the most critical, irreversible moments, as if they cannot speak unless pushed to the brink. Why can't one express love earlier? Why wait until facing life and death to muster such courage—such cowardly courage?
In reality, Gao Rui might not be doing this for Hu Jiajia at all. The eight years that Hu Jiajia spent loving Gao Rui were wasted youth. If she could let go of her pride, perhaps she would have turned back sooner.
Gao Rui's lips trembled slightly, his eyes wide open, his whole body shaking. "I hate you."
How could someone willing to take the fall and possibly face the death penalty say such a thing?
"But if I don't stand up for you, you'll die. How can I let you ruin your life while I live happily?" Hu Jiajia's voice was hoarse. "I can't do that."
Hu Jiajia truly misunderstood; what Gao Rui was doing was not for her at all.
Gao Rui let out a cold snort. "I hate you. I wish I could kill you sooner. If I had killed you earlier, none of this would have happened. You disgusting, lowly bitch!"
Everyone in the interrogation room, except for me, was taken aback. Especially Guan Zengbin and Hu Jiajia, who stared at Gao Rui with their mouths agape. How could such vulgar words come from the mouth of Teacher Gao, who had been awarded the "Most Popular Teacher" for three consecutive years?
"W-what did you say?" Hu Jiajia stopped crying and looked blankly at Gao Rui.
"I said!" Gao Rui's expression twisted as he spat out each word slowly through clenched teeth. "I should have killed you long ago, dismembered you, tortured you. You deserve a terrible death!"
"But if you hate Sister Jiajia so much, why are you taking the blame?" Guan Zengbin asked in disbelief.
I gently tapped the table to draw everyone's attention to me. "Because Gao Rui no longer wants to live. In fact, the entire plan was not Gao Rui's but Zhang Mingliang's. Gao Rui only made his own changes to Zhang Mingliang's plan, and that change was to send himself to his death."
The story begins long ago.
Zhang Mingliang disappeared to the other side of the playground, fearing he would alert the night security guards at school, declaring that he would never return.
But in reality, Gao Rui never gave up on finding Zhang Mingliang.
Gao Rui was handsome and academically gifted, naturally attracting many girls' affection, including Hu Jiajia. While other teachers worried that Gao Rui might be distracted by early romance, his homeroom teacher always told others that he believed Gao Rui would never fall in love too early.
Others thought this homeroom teacher was open-minded, but they didn't know it was because he understood Gao Rui's sexual orientation.
When it came time for college applications in senior year, surprisingly, Gao Rui chose a rather mediocre second-tier university. Given his grades, he could have easily gotten into a prestigious university. He told Hu Jiajia that it was a mistake. In reality, the university he wanted to attend was simply because Zhang Mingliang was there too.
Three years later, when Zhang Mingliang and Gao Rui met again, it was under somewhat frantic circumstances for Zhang Mingliang while Gao Rui remained calm.
Gao Rui said: "What a coincidence, we haven't seen each other for three years." Gao Rui has since learned to hide his love in his heart and not tell Zhang Mingliang. One time when the two of them were drinking, Gao Rui said that he was ignorant when he was young. Thinking about it now is too naive. That matter will become a secret of the past forever and let us all forget it. They drank all night, Gao Rui had smiles on their faces and tears in their hearts. Smiling faces are always just an expression and cannot represent feelings. From then on, Zhang Mingliang and Gao Rui became good brothers again. "Who is this girl? She looks very good." One day when the two of them were going out to play, Zhang Mingliang saw a photo in Gao Rui QQ space and said. "Well, her name is Hu Jiajia." Gao Rui clicked on the photo: "She and I went to the same school, and now she is studying in a key university." Zhang Mingliang shook his head and said : "Gao Rui, look at this Hu Jiajia, she is beautiful and good at studying, she is like a goddess. It's a pity, we don't know what to do after graduation from this rubbish school, there is a gap, people It’s impossible for a girl like this to fall in love with us.” Gao Rui didn’t say anything. Zhang Mingliang doesn’t understand, as long as Gao Rui nods, the goddess in Zhang Mingliang’s heart will become Gao Rui’s girlfriend. But Gao Rui didn’t do this, because in Gao Rui’s heart, no girl is worthy of Zhang Mingliang. Because Zhang Mingliang is my male god. In order to have a common topic with Zhang Mingliang, Gao Rui deliberately maintained a relationship with Hu Jiajia, and often tricked Hu Jiajia into taking some relatively private photos to show Zhang Mingliang, and Zhang Mingliang looked at the photos. While drooling, I often masturbate looking at the photos of Hu Jiajia. If Zhang Mingliang doesn’t like it, Gao Rui will never contact Hu Jiajia. Four years later, two people graduated. Zhang Mingliang came to this city and found a sales job, earning a salary of two thousand yuan a month.
Gao Rui followed him to this city. With his abilities, he passed the interview at Yucai High School and stumbled upon Principal Zhang's secret, earning a monthly salary and benefits totaling eight thousand yuan.
"Damn it, if it weren't for me, you'd be finished by now. I'm not charging you rent, are you happy?" Gao Rui said deliberately to Zhang Mingliang.
"We're brothers!" Zhang Mingliang chuckled.
It felt good to accompany him as a brother, Gao Rui thought.
However, this life was disrupted three years later when a graduate student arrived in town. This person was none other than Hu Jiajia. Hu Jiajia became Gao Rui's colleague and subsequently entered Zhang Mingliang's life.
"Without a house, who would want to be with you?"
As Zhang Mingliang said this, he assigned Gao Rui a task: to secretly take photos of Hu Jiajia. It would be even better if he could get hold of her underwear. Previously, Zhang Mingliang had used photos for his own pleasure, but now he was no longer satisfied with that.
"Aren't you colleagues? Why is she so attached to you?" Zhang Mingliang remarked.
Gao Rui once stole Hu Jiajia's underwear just to satisfy Zhang Mingliang's desires.
After being harassed enough, Hu Jiajia moved away, and only Principal Zhang and Gao Rui knew her new address.
One day later, Zhang Mingliang stood by Hu Jiajia's bed, using her underwear to satisfy his own lust. The key was one he had taken from Gao Rui. When Hu Jiajia moved in, she had given Gao Rui a spare key, saying she was careless and afraid of losing it.
That key ended up in Zhang Mingliang's hands.
