This was a question no one could figure out.
Shen Qing thought for a moment, then said, "The incident happened this afternoon, before the Imperial College had let out for the day. According to Zihan and the Marquis Wu'an, Wu Shilang is not the type of student to skip classes, yet he clearly did so today.
"If he followed someone because he saw them leaving the Imperial College and found it strange, that would explain why he skipped class."
Sun Heng immediately nodded. "You have a point, my lady. When Wu Shilang was discovered, he was still wearing his Imperial College uniform, which means he had just come from there! If the culprit isn't Wu Shilang, then it's very likely another student from the Imperial College!"
"Therefore," Shen Qing said, "the real killer is probably among the students who skipped class at the Imperial College today. For Wu Shilang to take the fall for him, there must be some kind of connection between them that we don't know about.
