In the third year of their marriage, Wen Jingyi's husband, Shen Zekai, died in a car accident.
Little did she know, her husband, whom she loved with all her heart, had faked his death and...
Wen Jingyi approached Bai Mengqiu, her tone becoming more and more determined: "Whether you admit it or not, I will find evidence sooner or later."
"evidence?"
"joke."
"You're not going to blame me for the death of those adoptive parents, are you crazy?"
Bai Mengqiu sneered, his tone impatient and contemptuous.
She crossed her arms, her resistance becoming more and more obvious, and she looked at Wen Jingyi with disdain from afar.
Then he said impatiently: "Your own adoptive parents are in trouble, and you can't find the cause of death, but you try your best to throw mud at me. I think you are so lacking in love that you are crazy."
"How old was I then? Do you think I killed them? You're really sick..."
The more Bai Mengqiu spoke, the more sarcastic his expression became.
Even the look he gave the tombstone was filled with impatience.
She rubbed off the mud on the soles of her high heels with disgust, and her snow-white insteps were also splashed with many mud spots without her knowing when.
Even the softly shimmering pearls on the uppers looked disheveled and dim.
Wen Jingyi looked at Bai Mengqiu's impatient expression coldly.
Ever since she came to the cemetery, she seemed to be uneasy and her attitude had become even more aggressive.
Originally, Wen Jingyi was not sure whether Bai Mengqiu's meeting with Zhou Jingrui was a misunderstanding.
However, now that she saw Bai Mengqiu's reaction, she felt much more certain.
Bai Mengqiu was a little panicked.
"Anything else?"
She turned around, looking very critical of her surroundings, and muttered, "What a lousy cemetery! There's not even a single person in sight."
"If you have nothing else to do, I'll leave first. Who has the time to mess around with you every day? It's a waste of time."
After saying that, Bai Mengqiu glanced at the tombstone coldly, quickly looked away, and left without looking back.
Wen Jingyi lowered her eyes to look at the holes made by Bai Mengqiu's high heels.
This cemetery is very remote. Firstly, Wen Jingyi was indeed in financial difficulty at the time, so this was the best choice.
Secondly, because it was remote enough, the environment was unexpectedly good and the ground was not made of concrete, so Wen Jingyi scattered grass seeds around the graves of her adoptive parents.
Now Bai Mengqiu is facing a pit with every step.
Before long, Bai Mengqiu's figure was reduced to just a small black dot.
Wen Jingyi stopped looking and sat in front of the tombstone in silence for a while, then suddenly spoke in a hoarse voice.
"Dad, Mom, don't worry. I will find your murderer and give you justice as soon as possible."
"I swear."
The clear and cold voice disappeared in an instant.
The thin figure stayed in front of the tombstone for a long time until night fell, then she got up and left.
Not long after returning home, there was a strong knock on the door. Wen Jingyi looked at the peephole warily, feeling strange.
"Comrade police officer?"
She took two steps forward and asked in confusion, "What happened?"
The two men in uniform said bluntly, "Wen Jingyi?"
She nodded. "I am."
"Come with us."
They looked at each other, nodded, and then politely but unquestionably made way for us, saying in a cold and hard tone, "Don't make things difficult for us."
Wen Jingyi was full of doubts, and her grip on the door frame slowly tightened: "I don't know what I did. Is this really appropriate for you?"
"you do not know?"
The two of them frowned and looked over, their eyes scrutinizing him: "Bai Mengqiu is missing, did you know about this?"
Wen Jingyi looked up blankly and replied subconsciously: "How is that possible? I saw her leave with my own eyes."
"So you admit that she was with you before she disappeared?"
"I don't know when she disappeared." Wen Jingyi felt she couldn't explain herself clearly, so she took a deep breath and said, "You have no evidence to prove that her disappearance is related to me."
The two of them seemed to have heard a joke and said to Wen Jingyi as a matter of course: "If you can prove it, then we two wouldn't come to you empty-handed to invite you as a guest."
They explained, "Now that a living person has gone missing, we have to start an investigation. Anyone who is suspected will be asked to make a statement. This is also to help clear you of suspicion."
Wen Jingyi was a little discouraged: "...I understand."
Now that things have come to this, I have no choice but to go along.
She locked the doors and windows, and sent a text message to Mo Yunfan before leaving. Only then did she take the initiative to go and take the statement.
On the way, she suddenly remembered something and reminded him, "Although there are no surveillance cameras in the cemetery, there is an orchard across the street. The orchard owner installed surveillance cameras to monitor the orchard. Have you checked it?"
The two looked at each other, with a hint of surprise in their expressions.
It seems not.
Wen Jingyi felt a little relieved.
The fruit farmers probably installed the surveillance cameras in a very covert way in order to catch thieves.
The surveillance video was taken when she lost something in the cemetery. The security guard in charge of the cemetery took the initiative to inform her, and Wen Jingyi accidentally found out about it.
As long as she checked the surveillance footage, she believed she would soon see Bai Mengqiu leaving alone.
I stayed there for at least two hours after she left, how could I be related to her disappearance?
However, there was no sign of Bai Mengqiu leaving on the surveillance footage.
The accelerated footage continued to play until dark.
In the end, Wen Jingyi left alone, while Bai Mengqiu only went in and never left from beginning to end.
"This is impossible..."
Wen Jingyi frowned and looked at the empty cemetery gate, recalling, "She was only in there with me for less than twenty minutes before leaving, and there must have been footprints from her high heels."
"I'm sorry, but we didn't find any footprints outside the door."
"So now I'm a suspect?"
Wen Jingyi found it ridiculous.
