Mo Yu was stunned for a moment, then her eyes widened: "Nan Zhi."

She was alone at the scene, with no witnesses. That cold text message could easily have been a premeditated smokescreen.

Butler Li smiled:

“If Nanzhi kills Madam, do you think the Xu family will still acknowledge her? But you are different. You are Madam’s favorite child. Xu Mo will definitely treat you well.”

A glint flashed in Mo Yu's eyes. Regardless of whether it was Nan Zhi or not, since she had appeared, she had to confirm that she was the murderer.

Butler Li nodded slightly.

After the two returned, Mo Yu was already teary-eyed, and looked at Xu Mo, saying:

"Uncle, who killed my aunt?"

Xu Mo shook his head sadly, "Let the police investigate."

But Mo Yu shook her head, and suddenly lunged at Nan Zhi as if she were possessed:

"It must be you, Nanzhi. You were jealous of your aunt and didn't let you return to the Xu family. You're the one who killed her."

The moment she lunged at Nanzhi, Xu Mo pulled her back.

"Yu'er, don't be impulsive."

Xu Mo simply couldn't believe that Nan Zhi had done it.

"Uncle, it must be her, otherwise why would she be the only one here?"

Xu Mo felt a pang of pain in his heart when he saw Mo Yu like this.

"Nan Zhi said that the kidnappers sent her a text message telling her to come."

Mo Yu shook her head. "The kidnappers sent her a text message? Isn't that absurd?"

“She has records and pictures on her phone.”

Upon hearing Xu Mo's words, Mo Yu became even more agitated, "Couldn't it be that she prepared in advance to conceal her motives?"

Xu Mo shook his head. "Nan Zhi called me, but I was talking to you at the time and didn't notice."

Mo Yu chuckled and stared at Nan Zhi with a mad expression:

"It must be you. Did you think you were completely safe after doing all that?"

As she spoke, Mo Yu ran directly to the police officer and excitedly said:

"Officer, it must be her. My aunt offended her before, and she's been trying to get revenge by fabricating that evidence to get herself out of trouble. You must catch her!"

Mo Yu's words were not nonsense; it was entirely possible.

In fact, the police never intended to let Nam-chi go in the first place. Until the real culprit is found, Nam-chi is a suspect. Once she goes to the police station, she won't be able to get out for a while.

"Miss, please calm down. We will find out the truth and give your aunt justice."

Mo Yu finally calmed down, and by then Xu Mo had already walked up to Nan Zhi.

"Don't worry, I will prove as soon as possible that this has nothing to do with you, so don't be afraid."

Upon hearing this, Nan Zhi suddenly raised her head and looked at Xu Mo. His face was full of worry, but he did not blame her for Mo Yu's words.

To be honest, Nanzhi found it unbelievable. Logically speaking, at the scene of a murder, she would have had a hard time escaping the possibility of being suspected.

Unexpectedly, Xu Mo didn't have the slightest doubt; instead, he was worried.

Nan Zhi felt a warmth in her heart, and she smiled slightly:

"I'm fine. If I didn't do it, then I didn't do it. I believe justice will be on my side."

After listening to Nan Zhi's words, Xu Mo saw that she was in good spirits, so he nodded and said:

"I will inform Mr. Shen as soon as possible."

At such a moment, only Shen Xingmian could truly be Nanzhi's support.

The Xu family was too unfamiliar to Nanzhi, and she didn't feel safe with them.

Nan Zhi was taken to the police station, and Mo Wenhui's body was also temporarily transferred to the police station with Xu Mo's consent so that the forensic doctor could determine the cause of death.

The rest of the Xu family were also brought back for questioning.

Finally, based on the evidence they provided, the police questioned Nam Gyi.

"Name"

"South Branch"

"Country of Citizenship"

"China"

"Relationship with the deceased"

"We've met once before."

Are there any contradictions?

After thinking about it, Nan Zhi decided not to hide it and to tell her about the time Mo Wenhui came to see her.

The person taking her statement glanced at her and then asked, "Do you hate her?"

It was a statement of fact. Nan Zhi shook her head indifferently, "No, to me, she's just an insignificant person."

The officer nodded, his expression somewhat displeased, and continued:

"Based on your description and the evidence from the scene, Ms. Nan, we strongly suspect that you are acting out of spite. It is necessary for our bureau to temporarily detain you."

Nan Zhi suddenly stood up. "You haven't even investigated the truth yet, and you're already going to detain me?"

The police officer said in a businesslike manner:

"Miss Nan, please cooperate. You must stay here until the truth is found out. That's the rule."

Nanzhi was somewhat unwilling; staying in the police station would give her a criminal record, and she would no longer have the right to participate in world-class competitions.

"I promise to stay home and not go anywhere. You can investigate all you want. I won't run away."

After all, this is the United States, and Nam Gyi has no way to confront the police here.

"No, you can't leave until the truth is found out, otherwise we will have to take force."

As soon as the officer finished speaking, the door was kicked open with a bang.

A figure stood against the light at the doorway, and after a long silence, spoke coldly:

"You dare?"

The officer was taken aback, turned his head, and saw a tall figure walk in.

With the police chief following behind, the officer couldn't help but feel puzzled.

Shen Xingmian merely glanced at the police officer standing there and walked straight toward Nanzhi.

The moment Nanzhi saw him, tears welled up in her eyes and spilled out.

The first thing Nan Zhi thought of when she saw the body was Shen Xingmian; the moment she was suspected, she thought of Shen Xingmian; and when the police officer questioned her, she still thought of Shen Xingmian.

The man stepped forward and hugged the girl gently, saying, "It's alright now."

Nanzhi couldn't help but cry out:

"Why did you take so long to arrive? I... I didn't kill anyone, I'm innocent."

Her choked voice and fragmented words tugged at Shen Xingmian's heartstrings.

Nan Zhi has always been strong and has never shown such helplessness and crying in front of him. In the past, Nan Zhi was always able to talk back and was quick to retaliate when she was hurt by others.

But this time, she couldn't, and she didn't dare.

She has no power or capital here, and making a scene would not benefit her; it would only cause trouble for others.

Shen Xingmian stroked her head repeatedly for a long time before saying:

"Let's go home."

After saying that, he picked Nanzhi up and carried her in his arms.

The young police officer was stunned. Just as he was about to step forward to stop him, the chief pulled him back.

"Just shut up for me. There are a lot of suspicious things going on in this matter. Don't worry, they won't run away."

Junior officer: "......" What's going on?

Only after Shen Xingmian left the police station did the junior officer ask:

"Chief, them?"

The bureau chief glared at him. "Mind your own business. That guy has a powerful background, and the people around him certainly don't need to do this kind of thing. Let's wait for the results."

The young police officer couldn't help but ask, "Even the Xu family can't compare?"

In his eyes, the Xu family was already the highest-level family, and he had never heard of any other families.

The director said:

"That's because they're low-key."
