【Not Guilty Defense-03】

Yue Xingwen, Ke Shaobin, and Xu Yishen each drove to the location of the beach barbecue restaurant sent by Qin "Lu", while Zhuo Feng drove the bus to take Qun Xue to the beach.

In the evening, the whole city is shrouded in the golden sunset. The road goes east, and you can see the magnificent landscape of the sea and the sky. Along the seaside sightseeing road, there are palm trees planted with tropical style, and there are many couples. Walking along the beach holding hands.

Yue Xingwen opened the window, the sea breeze was blowing, mixed with the wet breath of the sea, and the temperature in this season was extremely comfortable. It is no wonder that so many people have learned to go out in groups on weekends.

When he was in Hua'an University, various classes and associations often organized outing activities on weekends. There are more than 90 people who go to the beach to have a barbecue at the law school. The situation will definitely be very chaotic. There are so many people, wonder if anyone will be killed?

Yue Xingwen was frowning and thinking, when a message suddenly popped up on his phone, Xin Yan sent it to the WeChat group: "I saw their registration form for a weekend barbecue in the law school group. There are 22 people who did not participate in this event, and they have been sorted out. On the list, Oita is doing internships in other places, so they can't come back. There are 7 people who stayed in the school, 2 males and 5 females."

Yue Xingwen replied: "You continue to pay attention to the classmates who stay at school, I'm almost there."

Ten minutes later, Yue Xingwen came to the beach barbecue restaurant and saw Qin "Lu" dressed as a waiter, and Zhang Xiaonian wearing a white hat playing the side dish master.

Yue Xingwen walked up to Qin "Lu" and asked in a low voice, "Has the others not arrived yet?"

Qin "Lu" nodded: "Well, you are the first to arrive."

Yue Xingwen said: "You guys are busy first, I will go to the beach for a walk, and they will call me in the group when they arrive."

Although there is a barbecue on the beach, the barbecue area is separated from the beach play area. The sand in the play area is white and clean. There are many nearby residents playing on the beach. The sunset falls on the sea, and the sea water seems to be rendered into a golden color.

Yue Xingwen came to the beach and looked into the distance.

Ten meters from the beach, there are floating balls in red, undulating with the sea. The floating balls are connected by fishnet-like lines - the lines should be cordoned off to prevent beachgoers from swimming into the deep sea.

In the offshore area within the warning line, the depth of the sea water is about 1.5 meters. When an adult stands up, he can "exposed" his head, so as not to drown; in the deep sea area outside the warning line, people who can't swim are likely to be in danger if they drown.

It is also common to set up a cordon in the beach area where people play by the sea.

Yue Xingwen can't swim, and he never goes into the water when he travels to the beach, but at this time, there are many children playing in the offshore area with swimming rings, and aunts and uncles holding silk scarves and posing in various shapes to take pictures .

As the sun sets, the beach barbecue officially begins.

Zhuo Feng sent a message in the group: "The bus is here, the group is really full of energy, laughing and making noise on the road, and singing in the car, I'm so irritated that I can't drive anymore."

Yue Xingwen said: "We used to go out to play, too."

Zhuo Feng was stunned for a while, thinking carefully, they learned to organize activities before, which is more lively than ever! They also learn it by themselves. Why now, when looking at some of their peers, suddenly there is a "senior mentality" of "adults watching children"?

Maybe you have experienced too much in the library, and your mentality is mature!

Zhuo Feng sent a dry smile: "Where are you?"

Xu Yishen and Ke Shaobin also just arrived, and they bubbled up in the group one after another: "In Qin Lu."

Yue Xingwen rushed over, his teammates had already arrived, Qin "Lu" flipped through the reservation at the front desk and said, "The seats in Area A and Area B were reserved by the students a few days ago, you can only sit Area C. The view over there is not very good."

Yue Xingwen said: "It doesn't matter, arrange a seat for 4 for us."

Qin "Lu" took them to Area C to find a seat. Each seating area had a sunshade, and the four of them sat under the umbrella. The bakery, iron mesh, and charcoal fire were all provided by the store. Yue Xingwen handed over the menu and pencil to Ke Shaobin: "Ke Shaobin, you come to order, just tick what you want to eat."

Ke Shaobin lowered his head and carefully selected dishes, sausages, chicken wings, beef, fish balls, potato chips, leeks...

He checked the price, hooked, and ordered ten copies in a blink of an eye.

After a while, the server brought the dishes and placed them next to their seats. The four of them watched the surroundings while grilling—the students from the law school had all arrived, and the chatter was very lively. They occupied the entire area a and b. There are 4 people at one table, Oita is seated according to the dormitory, and there are also mixed male and female seats.

Laughter can be heard from time to time in the study group. Like Senior Brother Zhuo Feng, the group study is indeed full of vitality.

Yue Xingwen looked at them and did not miss his college life. Without being pulled in by the library, they can also organize barbecues, mountain climbing, and "camping" camps!

The smell of barbecue came from the surroundings, and everyone started to start. Ke Shaobin grilled the meat himself. The guy was not only very particular about eating, but his cooking skills were also good. The meat was tender and delicious, Yue Xingwen couldn't help eating more skewers.

As the sun went down, the sky darkened, the barbecue stalls lit up with colorful lights, and the tourists playing by the beach gradually dispersed. There was enthusiastic music around, models were dancing, and a bonfire was lit in the middle.

As far as Qin "Lu" is concerned, in order to attract customers, the store will hold a bonfire party.

Yue Xingwen followed the local customs and joined the lively scene of the bonfire party. He danced with the surrounding universities. In fact, he couldn't dance, but he could follow everyone around. Senior Brother Xu Yishen twisted and twisted, but he had a sense of rhythm.

A woman next to them saw them and asked curiously, "You don't belong to law school, right?"

Yue Xingwen said: "Well, the four of us, from the same dormitory of the School of Mathematics of Beishan University, came to have a barbecue on the weekend. I didn't expect to meet you in a group activity."

Beishan University, the name of the school where Pingce and their second place are located, a key institution in Beishan City.

The woman's eyes were bright and she said, "Alumni, what a coincidence!"

Yue Xingwen asked: "Which major do you have, and why are there so many people?"

The woman said: "Law school. Everyone will graduate next semester. Taking advantage of the fact that there are still many students in school, we organized a group activity, which is a carnival before graduation."

The woman has short hair, wears a simple short-sleeved T-shirt and pencil pants. She is elegant and can chat with strangers. Yue Xingwen asked, "Did you learn it?"

The woman nodded: "Well, I learned how to organize this barbecue event."

Yue Xingwen said seriously: "Can you leave a contact information, senior sister? I have some legal issues that I would like to consult with you."

The girl was stunned for a moment, holding back her smile, took out her mobile phone, exchanged contact information with Yue Xingwen, and stretched out her hand: "You, my name is Qi Xinyu, how about you?"

Yue Xingwen smiled and said, "My name is Jiang Pingce."

A teammate almost spat out when he heard the words, and held back.

No, Jiang Pingce is indeed a student of the School of Mathematics at Beishan University. Even if the woman goes back to the school to listen to his name, Yue Xingwen will be able to find out the existence of the individual, and there will be no doubts.

The bonfire party was still going on, and the girl was pulled by her friend to play elsewhere.

The sky was completely dark, and the students played very high. It was not until about 24:00 in the morning that they stopped and set up tents to get ready to sleep. The four of Yue Xingwen also rented two double tents. Xingwen and Ke Shaobin lived in one, Xu Yishen and Zhuo Feng lived in one, and the four worked together to set up a tent and get into the tent.

Ke Shaobin couldn't sleep, so he turned on his laptop to read documents.

Yue Xingwen asked, "Have you found any problems?"

Ke Shaobin said: "I was idle and bored, and I circled the top students who get scholarships every year, the scumbags who fail every year, and the students who have poor family conditions and apply for student loans."

Yue Xingwen smiled and looked at the laptop: "I am also familiar with the names of the next classmates in advance."

Just then, the screen of the mobile phone lit up, and he looked at the message from Jiang Pingce: "How are you over there?"

Yue Xingwen said: "Nothing was posted before dark. The classmates were having a bonfire party, singing and dancing, and had a good time. They set up a tent and prepared to go to bed later. I feel that the murderer should act in the middle of the night?"

Jiang Pingce said, "No incident happened at the school."

Yue Xingwen thought for a while and said, "Let's rest first, it is impossible for the library to let us hit the murderer directly, try to listen to the surrounding movement, and then tomorrow."

Jiang Pingce replied: "Well, the beach tent will be uncomfortable to sleep, the ground is too hard, you put half of the quilt under your body and cover the other half."

Yue Xingwen smiled back: "I know, good night."

Ke Shaobin closed the laptop and also began to doze off. The two turned off the flashlights, and Yue Xingwen lay down and listened carefully to the movement outside. Some classmates around lowered their voices. By 1:00 in the morning, there was no human voice outside, only the sound of "rushing" waves, Yue Xingwen fell asleep.

He was awakened by screams.

The harsh scream made Yue Xingwen sit up suddenly, rushed out of the tent to see, and saw two women standing by the sea, one of them was Qi Xinyu who was exchanging contact information with him last night, the other had long hair and a face. "Color" pale.

There was a corpse floating on the sea not far away.

A girl in a colorful dress, her hair was covering her face, and her body was a little swollen because of the night soaking in the water. Yue Xingwen's face changed, and he immediately took out his mobile phone and said, "Call the police!"

Almost at the same time, a piercing scream came from the school's female dormitory area!

Many girls would sleep late on weekends, and Jiequan was woken up by the screams. Qin Miao ran wild in her pajamas and came to the 7th floor. She found that many girls opened the door and looked strangely. Qin Miao ran in the direction of the sound, and the door of the dormitory No. 703 was wide open. , a woman stood at the door stunned, she should be the one screaming.

Inside the house, a woman in pajamas lay down in a pool of blood, and another woman knelt beside her, holding a sharp water jet in her hand, which was "inserted" into the woman's chest.

Qin Miao: "..."

The screaming woman shouted: "Killed! Ahhh! Zhu Xiaoting killed!"

The screaming attracted a large number of onlookers, and the dormitory aunt was also alerted and quickly climbed upstairs while calling the police.

The female Zhu Xiaoting who stayed in the dormitory was horrified and shook her head frantically: "No me, no me... I didn't kill anyone! She was already dead when I came!"

The screaming woman pointed at her emotionally: "You, you have a knife in your hand!"

Zhu Xiaoting was startled, and immediately released her hand, and the water jet fell to the ground.

Qin Miao quickly took a picture of the scene and sent it to the group: "The female dormitory 703, the deceased Xie Xiangqin, had a knife 'inserted' in his chest, which looked like a deadly knife. Zhu Xiaoting was at the scene, holding the knife that stabbed to death. Knife. Witness, screaming, the deceased's roommate "Mao" Yue."

Qin Miao had read the law school materials given by Xin Yan before, so after seeing the incident in the 703 dormitory, he quickly reported the names of the three people at the scene according to the memories in his mind and their faces.

Looking at the photos in the group, Yue Xingwen cried out inwardly.

Could it be that Zhu Xiaoting is their client? !

The next moment, a message popped up in the floating box in the upper right corner of everyone: "The police are about to arrest the most suspected student, Zhu Xiaoting, please prepare to defend the client."

Lan Yarong: "..."

With a murder weapon in hand, being found at the scene of the murder is simply indefensible!

Why did the girl touch the murder weapon!
