Chapter 445: Chapter 319: Don’t Be Fooled, This Is Not the Truth_2

"...Just investigate the dining car," Xiao Yi slightly squinted his eyes and said, "That dining car, no matter what, is not easy to handle, so... just check if there’s any blood inside."

"..."

Wei’er finally bowed her head thoroughly, seemingly admitting her defeat.

"...It looks like you’ve accepted it," Hart also sighed, "This dismemberment case, it seems to have been completely resolved."

"..." Ye Xi looked at Wei’er, hesitating slightly, but she still mustered the courage to step forward and asked Wei’er, "Wei’er... why did you kill Lin Huixue? And with such a cruel method, Lin Huixue... she was clearly such a kind-hearted good person."

"A kind-hearted good person? Hah..."

At this moment, Wei’er couldn’t help but laugh. She sneered loudly:

"She was no good person, Ye Xi. Remember how this morning she asked if you wanted coffee or tea? That was specially prepared by her to make you fall asleep... She had already started planning to kill you. Otherwise, why do you think she would pretend to cozy up to you with a disgusted expression?"

"...Eh?" Ye Xi was stunned, and she couldn’t help but recall that Lin Huixue indeed acted somewhat strangely this morning. Could it be... what Wei’er was saying was true? Did Lin Huixue intend to harm her?

However, whether what Wei’er said was true or not, there was one thing Ye Xi could confirm was true, and she immediately asked Wei’er about it.

Ye Xi demanded, "Wei’er, who... exactly are you? How do you know these things? Why murder? This incident... no, our being brought to this ship, what does it have to do with you?"

"...Of course it’s related," Wei’er said, "Now that things have come to this point, there’s no need for me to continue hiding it. I’ll tell you... You were brought here because of me. I... orchestrated all this."

"...!" Ye Xi was shocked, "You did all this? You are the mastermind? What do you mean? Why would you do this? Who... exactly are you?"

"I..." Wei’er finally revealed her true identity, "I am the only survivor of the Eternal Life Plan twelve years ago. And Lin Huixue, she was an executive of the company, or rather, one of the main initiators and beneficiaries of the Eternal Life Plan."

"...!"

Hearing this, everyone else was stunned.

No one had expected that there was still a survivor from the Eternal Life Plan back then.

The Eternal Life Plan, just by knowing its contents and imagining a bit, one could realize how tremendously painful it was, and the real situation must have been much more burdensome.

For Wei’er, a survivor, wanting revenge was natural.

Xiao Yi also nodded thoughtfully. As the incident unfolded, everyone’s hidden connections to that incident twelve years ago gradually surfaced.

"You... can certainly not understand, can you? The feelings I had witnessing that hellish experience back then?"

Wei’er continued, her voice turning frantic and full of resentment!

"We encountered so much fear and despair, endured so much pain, just for the selfish greed of a bunch of bastards! I cannot accept that! I want revenge! So, I used all my means to reproduce the situation from twelve years ago, just to let those who once made us suffer, experience our pain! To let them die in despair! That is... my revenge! This is the only meaning for my pathetic survival!"

"..."

Listening to Wei’er’s words, everyone fell into silence.

No one said anything, nor did anyone criticize Wei’er’s act of revenge because... Wei’er’s past, for others, might just be a story that had nothing to do with them, but her sadness and pain were real.

Any normal person would know they had no right to criticize her revenge, especially knowing how repulsive those who presume to judge from the sidelines are, so they would not blame her.

However, Hart was still puzzled and couldn’t help but ask Wei’er:

"But among us, not everyone is related to the company. If you want revenge, why involve us?"

"...I’m sorry."

And Wei’er explained like this:

"The people involved in the Eternal Life Plan had eradicated their past to conceal their newfound youth, and I could not confirm whether a person was indeed the target of my revenge.

Therefore... I decided to bring everyone associated with the Eternal Life Project here and observe their reactions. If one was a beneficiary of the plan, seeing this ship that shouldn’t exist would elicit a particular reaction, which would confirm their identity.

You all... seem innocent, and for that, I am very sorry; beyond that, I don’t know what to say. As you can see, I have failed now... I’ll take responsibility to send you back, and after that, I... will leave myself at your mercy."

Wei’er finished speaking, bending her head deeply.

"This..."

Everyone could not help but look at each other, at a loss for words momentarily.

But, Ye Xi stepped forward and walked up to Wei’er, showing her a gentle smile.

"You... don’t need to apologize to me," Ye Xi said, "Rather, I should thank you. I, too, wanted revenge for my deceased sister, and I was foolish enough to have believed my enemy. Thanks to you, I wasn’t harmed. So... I should be the one thanking you, thank you... for your revenge, through which I could know that my sister’s death hasn’t simply vanished into the ether."

"...Ah." Tears streamed down Wei’er’s eyes, "With those words from you, I... am very glad I didn’t give up."

The two girls then embraced, tears continuously flowing from their eyes.

The atmosphere at the scene... had already relaxed from the previous tension, even transforming into a warm ambiance.

This matter seemed to be entirely concluded, all questions having been answered, with no more areas that needed delving into.

...Is that really the case?

"..." Xiao Yi felt uneasy, he believed there was still something unresolved in this incident!

And if you ask why, it’s because... those rules had not yet come into effect!

Rule Four ending without utilizing any of the rules, is that possible?

Xiao Yi then recalled again, the information he knew about the rules.

There were four rules, which were:

[Rule One: A murder must occur within three days]

[Rule Two: If the murderer isn’t identified or wrongly identified after three days of finding the body, you will die]

[Rule Three: The past and present are closely linked]

[Rule Four: The murderer is the one who dealt the fatal blow to the victim]

Xiao Yi found the incongruities based on the rules.

[Rule Two] indicated that if Xiao Yi identified the wrong murderer, then he would die.

And [Rule Three] was the most mysterious, there hadn’t been any particularly relevant clues yet, what exactly did ’The past and present are closely linked’ mean?

Also [Rule Four], which reminded Xiao Yi of Lin Huixue’s dismembered body that bore numerous wounds, almost as if they were hiding the fatal injury!

All these... made Xiao Yi conclude that this matter couldn’t just end here!

So, just when everyone thought it was over, Xiao Yi spoke solemnly again:

"Don’t be deceived, this is not the truth!"
