Then they used psychological suggestion on him, telling him to turn himself in to the police station.

Xiao Li then straightened her cheongsam and gracefully left the hotel.

Liu Dong went to the police station in a daze and confessed all the mistakes he had made over the years, detailing them one by one.

The police were secretly amazed. They remembered that this man had always been a slippery character, refusing to say anything and even when the evidence was right in front of him, he would still try to argue his way out of it.

It's really strange that they've confessed everything now.

However, this was incredibly convenient for them in handling the case. They didn't even need to interrogate him; he confessed to everything, which significantly shortened the case's progress.

?

"If only every suspect were as honest as him."

Lu Senlai sighed this as he drank tea in Xiaoli's courtyard.

Xiaoli had a sudden thought: well, this isn't too difficult.

After seeing Lu Sen off, she exchanged for another Truth Pill.

Then they entered the space and got busy in the laboratory they obtained in the interstellar dimension.

Extraction, analysis, component identification, reduction...

After a year, Xiaoli finally developed Truth Water, which had a similar effect to Truth Pills.

She made a special bracelet for this purpose, which was injected with this "truth-telling water". Wearing it on her wrist and slightly pricking her skin, it could make the suspect tell the truth.

Upon learning of the existence of this potion, Lu Sen was overjoyed. With Xiao Li's consent, he handed over the formula to the state.

It is specifically used for interrogating various spies and suspects in major cases.

Xiao Li also received an honorary certificate from the state, which she gladly accepted.

Xiao Li has lived in Wencheng for ten years. She is already fifty years old and her body is no longer suitable for traveling around.

Xiao Li decided to return to Yuncheng, where it has a spring-like climate all year round. She liked the climate there. Fat Orange was also getting old and probably missed its hometown. It hadn't been very active lately.

After saying goodbye to Lu Sen, Xiao Li set off. She bought the guesthouse where she used to live in Yuncheng, but unexpectedly saw people who shouldn't have been there.

"I still have twenty days of rent left with you. It's been fifteen years, will the landlord honor the agreement this time?"

Xiao Li laughed. Lu Sen was not married. When she met him, he was only thirty years old. Now he is only forty-five years old and is in the prime of his career.

What about your job?

Lu Sen looked exceptionally handsome in his white shirt and black pants.

"I have already retired early."

He paused for a moment before continuing.

"In the past, I didn't understand how a woman like you dared to be here alone."

Later, when Liu Dong turned himself in, and you invented the "Truth Water," I understood everything.

Even the three male corpses found on the street fifteen years ago...

I understand that I'm no longer suited for this line of work, so I applied for early retirement.

Xiao Li neither denied nor admitted it; she simply smiled and brewed Lu Sen a cup of spiritual tea.

"Welcome, future tenant. Remember to pay your rent on time!"

Lu Sen also picked up his teacup, "Of course!"

(over)

Xiao Li had a very pleasant time in the previous world, it was like she was on vacation. In the end, she lost consciousness amidst the fragrance of flowers and the chirping of birds.

When she regained consciousness, she found herself being slowly lowered into the water, her hands and feet bound, while a group of people whispered around her on the shore.

"Serves him right. He corrupted the morals of our village and should be drowned."

It was drowning! What exactly did the original owner do?

Xiao Li didn't have time to think too much before she was submerged in water. She held her breath, took out a dagger from her spatial storage, cut the rope, and took out a water-repelling bead. Only then was she safe.

But she didn't surface immediately; she received the memories while underwater.

Ye Xiaoli is the eldest daughter of Ye Shiqing's family in Ye Family Village. She is beautiful, comes from a wealthy family, and dresses better than most people in the village, which makes her even more attractive.

She's fifteen this year, the perfect age for matchmaking, and matchmakers are practically wearing out her door.

Ye Shiqing was a scholar, so his standards were naturally higher than others, which is why he had not been able to find a suitable candidate.

Dong Yuxuan, a young man from the neighboring Dongjia Village, fell in love with Ye Xiaoli after seeing her once at the market. He asked someone to propose marriage to her, but unsurprisingly, he was rejected.

In his anger, he spread rumors that he and Ye Xiaoli were in love, blaming Ye Shiqing for breaking them up.

This has caused a major problem. Not only does Ye Shiqing have no intention of marrying his daughter to him, but he also invokes traditional etiquette to drown his daughter in the pond in order to uphold family traditions.

Dong Yuxuan was filled with remorse. On the day of the drowning, he rushed to clarify things, but it was too late. Ye Xiaoli had already drowned.

Overwhelmed with grief, Dong Yuxuan left Dongjia Village. He hated Ye Shiqing's rigidity and lack of understanding, and even more so, he hated himself for speaking carelessly and harming an innocent girl.

Dong Yuxuan came to the military camp. He started as a private and ten years later, he became a general.

Returning home in glory, he remembered the girl who died because of him, and he went to the riverbank to pay his respects.

Here, he met Ye Xiaohui, who had also come to secretly pay respects to her elder sister. She looked very much like Ye Xiaoli, but was more lively and spirited.

When Dong Yuxuan arrived at the Ye family, even Ye Shiqing, a general, had to show him some respect.

In the end, Dong Yuxuan married Ye Xiaohui, who was holding Ye Xiaoli's memorial tablet. The two sisters married the same man, with Ye Xiaoli as his second wife.

Dong Yuxuan finally felt fulfilled; he had fulfilled his childhood dream and married a lovely wife.

He only loved Ye Xiaohui throughout his life and never took a concubine. People praised him for his loyalty and affection.

Everyone envies the Ye family for getting such a good marriage.

Ye Xiaoli was the only one who was never remembered. Even her memorial tablet after marrying into the Dong family was covered in dust and ignored by everyone.

She was filled with resentment. She had followed her parents' arrangements throughout her life, being obedient and compliant, but in the end, she was abandoned by her parents to preserve the Ye family's reputation.

Even her younger sister's marriage was arranged with her life as the trigger.

She wanted to break free from her parents' control and see if her younger sister could still have a happy marriage without her.

She wants to live her own life.

?

Xiao Li touched the marks on her hands. They were tied really tightly. They were still uneven and bluish-purple, and it looked painful.

"Uncle Ye, it's all my fault. I was talking nonsense. I never spoke to Miss Ye. She's innocent. Please get her out of here."

A male voice came from inside; this must be Dong Yuxuan.

The villagers were in an uproar. What should they do?

"You go back on your word, saying yes one moment and no the next. Do you think that based on your own words alone, the reputation of my Ye family will be completely destroyed?"

"If you ever again claim to have an affair with Xiaoli, how can my Ye family have the face to live in this world?"

"Uncle Ye, this is a matter of life and death. Please save Miss Ye first. I will do whatever you want with me after that."

"Hmph, you brat, you're too rude. What I do is none of your business."

Dong Yuxuan was extremely anxious. The person had been submerged for so long, was there any way to save him?
