Chapter 791: The second death

Chapter 791 The Second Deceased

“Yo, Ai Li-chan~ New phone again? And your number hasn't even changed.”

Hearing the familiar voice from the other end of the phone, Ai Li’s expression grew even gloomier.

“Our are playing outside right now, everyone’s here! Everyone misses you, hurry up and come over.” The girl on the other end said, “I’ll give you half an hour, you must appear before Our, no tardiness allowed.”

Ai Li knew that they were after her wallet again, calling her over as usual to pay the bill and add some “entertainment projects” along the way.

But just as she herself had said, in order to achieve the goal of “smooth graduation,” she had to endure now…

If she didn't go and refused “their” invitation, the consequences would be severe.

Because “they” were the “upper caste” in school, possessing powerful influence, and could easily make her situation worse.

Moreover, the boyfriends “they” had recently befriended were delinquents from the Armed Unskilled Group, who also possessed quite terrifying deterrent power outside of school.

With her address already exposed, Ai Li had nowhere to escape.

Helplessly, Ai Li had no choice but to rush to the location “they” designated—an entertainment plaza in the Third School District, where “they” were happily singing in a KTV.

The Third School District is a school district specifically used by Academy City for many external displays, and important guests are arranged in this school district.

To ensure environmental comfort and avoid noise disturbance, the Third School District is even set far from the Twenty-Third School District, which is mainly responsible for aerospace.

One can imagine that the consumption level here must also be higher than in other places.

It was precisely because “they” knew there was a “wallet” to pay the bill that “they” would unscrupulously choose such high-end venues for consumption, right?

The only thing worth celebrating was that “they” were having fun, so they temporarily had no mind to bother Ai Li.

After confirming that the “wallet” had arrived, they no longer paid attention to her, merely ordered many more drinks and snacks, and continued to party wildly.

Ai Li also secretly breathed a sigh of relief, then found an excuse to hide in the restroom for some peace and quiet.

—It was almost three o'clock.

Inside the restroom stall, Ai Li was somewhat boredly browsing the information on her phone screen when she suddenly heard a loud bang from the door outside.

Someone had burst in.

“Ai Li-chan~ Ai Li…”

It was a man’s voice.

—It was one of “them”!

Ai Li remembered this voice; it was the strong male student with a tattoo on his forearm, already of high school or even college age.

—Had the most troublesome situation finally arrived?

Ai Li knew that her classmates thought highly of themselves. Although they nominally had these delinquents as boyfriends, in reality, they probably just used them and wouldn't really let themselves suffer losses.

In contrast, it was not surprising to offer Ai Li, this “wallet,” as a substitute.

The man outside was searching stall by stall, making terrifying noises.

He seemed to have had some alcohol in the private room earlier and was now in a state of excitement, with a rather unbridled aura.

The fragile lock of the restroom stall, of course, couldn't withstand the other party's violence, and the man finally found Ai Li.

He revealed a ferocious smile, his stout body seeming to fill the narrow stall, leaving the girl inside nowhere to escape.

—This person wasn't a classmate, and there were no classmates or other acquaintances here.

Therefore, Ai Li was extremely calm at this moment.

Her slender, weak body also had an advantage in this narrow space.

She gracefully turned, nimbly dodging the man's bear hug.

The man missed, directly embracing the toilet.

“Hey, do you know?” Ai Li reached out to touch the man’s body, “The water in the toilet is really hard to drink, even if it’s been cleaned…”

“What did you say?” The man turned abruptly.

He had only missed, he hadn’t plunged headfirst into the toilet.

But immediately after, the man stumbled and fell to the ground, his face pale, his hands clutching his neck as he desperately gagged.

As if he had just guzzled the dirty water from the toilet.

He even seemed to be gasping for breath, showing signs of suffocation.

Just then, screams came from outside the restroom, followed by a gradually escalating commotion.

—It’s almost time to go out…

Ai Li looked towards the restroom door.

Just then, the man on the ground finally recovered. He determined that Ai Li was behind it, and in his anger, he pounced like a wounded beast, roaring.

Ai Li hurriedly fled.

As she passed a certain private room, Ai Li was surprised to see that Guards had already arrived at the scene.

The door to the private room was not completely sealed, and a faint smell of blood could be detected from inside.

From the accounts of the curious customers around, it was learned that someone in this private room had committed suicide by cutting their wrist.

Ai Li had no time to linger; the man behind her was already roaring and chasing after her.

“That’s the women’s restroom, isn’t it?” The Guards noticed the commotion here. “Student, are you alright?”

Before Ai Li could answer, Huangquanchuan Aisui had already acted, executing a clean and precise grappling technique to completely subdue the rampaging man.

“Behave yourself! I also know many delinquents, but yours is simply too low-level!” Huangquanchuan Aisui scolded, “You’ll come with me to the isolation room later.”

Her partner, Tie Zhuangzhui Li, also walked over at this moment, comforting the frightened girl.

Due to the sudden incident here and the commotion at the entrance, more and more guests were attracted.

Among them were Ai Li’s classmates.

Noticing that “they” were also mixed in the crowd looking over, Ai Li’s face turned pale.

Regardless of the actual facts, they would certainly think that she had “ratted them out,” calling the Guards, which resulted in their companion being arrested.

—After this is over, they’ll definitely retaliate fiercely, right?

Ai Li felt heavy-hearted.

But the two Guard Teachers thought the girl was terrified.

“Tie Zhuang Teacher, you take this child back first,” Huangquanchuan Aisui said, “Leave this to me.”

Tie Zhuangzhui Li hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded: “Then I’ll leave it to you, Huangquanchuan-sensei!”

The bloody scene in the private room earlier had quite an impact on Tie Zhuangzhui Li. If it weren't for her duty as a Guards, she definitely wouldn't have been able to stay for another second.

To be honest, even Huangquanchuan Aisui had never seen someone make a wrist-cutting suicide scene so bloody and tragic.

Those who didn't know would probably think a fierce bloodbath had occurred.

After investigation, Huangquanchuan Aisui confirmed the deceased’s identity—a talent active in the “dark” side.

Perhaps it was precisely because of this special identity that he dared not easily call the police or an ambulance, fearing exposure of his identity.

But regardless, the deceased did indeed die from excessive blood loss, and it could be confirmed as suicide by wrist-cutting.
