Fang Bo thought for a moment and said, "How about we ask some other classmates and see if there are any other clues?" 0
 
Just then, the boy we had seen in the morning suddenly appeared in front of us. 0
 
He was holding a tray and seemed oblivious to our presence. 0
 
Fang Bo pointed at him and exclaimed, "That's him! I saw him lurking under the tree, staring at the body this morning!" 0
 
I recognized the boy as well. "That's right! He was staring at me all morning!" 0
 
An idea struck me, and I stepped forward to grab the boy's hand. "Cousin! So you’re here!" 0
 
The boy looked visibly taken aback. "What did you call me?" 0
 
"Cousin! I'm your Auntie!" I pretended to be familiar with him, deliberately trying to get closer. 0
 
"Uh?" The boy looked at me with confusion written all over his face. 0
 
Fang Bo walked over, pretending to be my friend. "Xiao Tang, is this your cousin?" 0
 
I nodded with a smile. "Yes! This is my cousin!" 0
 
The boy seemed a bit awkward. "Sister, let's find a place to sit and talk." 0
 
"Sure! I actually have some questions for you," I replied cheerfully. 0
 
Fang Bo and I followed the boy to an empty table where we sat down. 0
 
The boy cautiously asked me, "Sister, how did you find me?" 0
 
 
"Oh, I'm here looking for someone, and I just happened to run into you!" I replied with a smile. "Cousin, how have you been lately?" 0
 
The boy looked at me warily. "I'm fine, thanks for asking, Sister." 0
 
"That's good to hear! Now I can relax!" I patted his shoulder, trying to ease his tension. 0
 
"Cousin, I heard from Aunt that things haven't been going well for you lately. What's going on?" 0
 
I continued to act familiar and tried to get closer to him. 0
 
"Huh? No, I'm fine..." The boy clearly became flustered. 0
 
I glanced at him. "Really? Because I heard that you've been..." 0
 
He hurriedly interrupted me. "Sister, I have some things to take care of today. I need to go..." 0
 
With that, he stood up and was about to leave. 0
 
I reached out and grabbed his arm. "Cousin, why are you in such a hurry? I haven't even asked you anything yet!" 0
 
He was clearly getting impatient. "I told you I'm fine! Please stop asking!" 0
 
"Alright, alright! I won't ask anymore!" I quickly let go of him and allowed him to leave. 0
 
Fang Bo whispered to me, "Why not just ask him about this morning?" 0
 
I smiled. "It's not the right time yet. We need to find his dorm first and see if he left any clues." 0
 
I learned from Fang Bo that the boy's name was Sun Chen, a sophomore majoring in Bioengineering. 0
 
 
We quietly followed Sun Chen as he entered the boys' dormitory building. 0
 
Fang Bo and I waited downstairs until Sun Chen went upstairs, then we stealthily slipped into the dormitory. 0
 
We found Room 307, where Sun Chen was staying. 0
 
Inside the room, two guys were playing games and using their phones. 0
 
Fang Bo and I knocked on the door, pretending to be the Dormitory Supervisors. 0
 
"Is anyone there? Please open the door! We need to check the dormitory's cleanliness!" I called out in a voice mimicking the Dormitory Supervisor. 0
 
A voice from inside responded, "Coming!" 0
 
Before long, a boy with a buzz cut opened the door. 0
 
Fang Bo and I seized the opportunity to slip inside. 0
 
In the room, another boy wearing glasses was engrossed in his phone. 0
