Everyone in the place was instantly attracted to the scene and looked towards the door in surprise.
Even the music in the venue stopped at the right time.
"Everyone, I'm afraid your cocktail party can't continue."
An elderly policeman came forward, stood at the front, and showed his ID.
"What happened?"
Someone in the crowd asked in confusion.
The others were also discussing in low voices, and the atmosphere was inexplicably tense.
Su An and Gu Jingchen also looked at the group of policemen in confusion.
Then I heard——
"A murder has just occurred here. A woman in her fifties fell from a building. We estimate it was somewhere above the 25th floor. Therefore, I'm afraid everyone present will need to stay and cooperate with our investigation for a brief interrogation."
"A fifty-year-old woman?"
When Su An heard this, his heart suddenly felt empty and his eyes widened immediately.
Her voice instantly attracted the attention of several policemen.
The old policeman who spoke first frowned, took two steps forward, and asked in a deep voice, "Miss, have you brought any family members of the same age here today?"
"I……"
Su An was stunned by his question and was extremely panicked.
I won't...
It can’t be Tong Mama.
How could Tong's mother fall from the building?
She must have gone to the bathroom, and then...
Then I got lost in the building!
That’s why I didn’t come now!
Su An didn't say anything, but his fingertips had already unconsciously clenched the hem of his clothes, so tightly that they turned white.
"An An?"
Seeing her like this, Gu Jingchen couldn't help but feel puzzled.
Then he suddenly thought of something and his expression froze.
A woman in her fifties...
Making An An so nervous again...
Could it be...
A familiar figure flashed quickly through Gu Jingchen's mind.
Then he heard the police continue to ask.
"She's not tall, about 1.5 meters, with short hair and a thin build. Today she's wearing a burgundy top and black trousers, both made of cotton and linen. Do you know her?"
Almost every time he asked a question, Su An's face turned paler.
Until the last word falls.
She suddenly stood up straight, pushed Gu Jingchen beside her away without saying a word, and rushed directly towards the door!
I won't...
It can’t be Tong Mama!
She wants to confirm it with her own eyes!
"Miss!!!"
The policeman was startled by him and quickly winked at the others.
Seeing this, the other policemen rushed forward and stopped Su An!
"Miss, is the deceased someone you know?"
Someone asked hurriedly.
Su An didn't answer a word, but his face turned ashen and he wanted to rush out the door.
Her behavior has already explained it all.
Seeing that her face looked strange, the police quickly exchanged glances with her.
"Miss, please remain calm. We have something to ask you. As for the others here, please leave with us first."
As they talked, several people took Su An towards the door.
Su An's mind had already gone blank, and he could only follow them subconsciously.
"An An!"
Seeing this, Gu Jingchen hurriedly wanted to catch up.
But as soon as he moved, he was immediately stopped by the police.
"First of all, I'm sorry, you can't leave until we ask everyone here to register."
Gu Jingchen paused when he heard this, and a dark light suddenly flashed in his eyes.
He glanced worriedly at the place where Su An left, and said in a deep voice, "Okay, then start with me!"
On the other side——
Su An was still immersed in shock and disbelief, and was forced to confirm the other party's identity.
But unexpectedly, he was brought to the door of a room.
"Why did you bring me here?"
As she was about to turn around, she said quickly, "Please let me go down and take a look. I just want to confirm..."
She looked at the policemen in front of her almost beggingly, always with a glimmer of hope in her heart.
One of them couldn't help but sigh when he saw this.
"Sorry, miss. It's not that we don't want you to see it, but... after falling from such a high place, the body of the deceased is a little..."
He paused for a moment, without finishing his words, and suddenly took out a photo from his pocket.
"For now, we can only provide you with a photo for simple identification. Look, is this someone you know?"
Su An's eyes widened suddenly, and he almost snatched the photo away.
Then he just took a quick glance and his whole body suddenly stiffened.
In the center of the photo, Tong Mama's body was covered with a white cloth.
Half of the white cloth was soaked with blood from the ground.
Only the left corner was slightly lifted, revealing a pair of burgundy sleeves.
Su An had just seen her dressed like this not long ago.
So the person in the photo is really...
Really...
The next second——
Su An's eyes suddenly blurred and his legs went limp!
"Miss!"
Several policemen rushed to support her.
Su An didn't react, he just felt dizzy.
The scene in the photo just now can't be erased from my mind.
Child mother...
How is this possible?
How is that possible!
"Miss, please accept my condolences. Let us help you in first..."
Several people brought Su An into the room and asked her to sit on the sofa.
Then he continued, "Please rest here for a while. One of our colleagues will come over to do a brief overview of the situation. I hope you will cooperate as much as possible."
After saying that, the few people turned around and left without staying any longer.
With a "click", the door of the room closed.
Su An's ears also instantly became quiet.
The whole room was dead silent.
She just sat there blankly, her eyes unfocused as she stared at a certain point in the air, her mind blank.
how……
How could such a thing happen...
She must be dreaming, right?
Or was I too nervous and saw it wrong?
It’s just that the person in that photo just happened to be wearing the same color as Tong’s mother!
Child mother...
Tong’s mother might still be in this hotel!
Su An thought about it, and hurriedly took out his cell phone, calling Tong's mother over and over again.
But no matter how hard he fought, the only response he got was a cold female voice.
"Sorry, the number you dialed is currently unavailable..."
Su An cut off the call abruptly, but still dialed the number again without giving up. His fingers gripping the phone were already a little stiff.
Just then——
“Knock, knock, knock.”
Suddenly, there were three soft knocks outside the door.
Su An was distracted for a moment and looked over subconsciously.
Then I saw a man in police uniform pushing the door and coming in.
But she couldn't imagine his face no matter what.
It turned out to be Lu Ziting!
"Senior Lu...?"
Su An stared blankly at Lu Ziting in police uniform, as if he had stopped thinking.
How could it be the senior...
Why is he still wearing...a police uniform?
