Time seemed to freeze in the bedroom once again.
The wall clock ticked away, but no one could hear it.
Qiu Jingwen stared at his wife, his face pale, panting heavily.
"Yu---Yu Ping, what did you say? Did you kill Liu Han?"
"Yes, I killed your superior. I didn't want him to threaten our family anymore and destroy our home and everyone else."
"But you—I—you, you killed him—how could you—we—?"
Qiu Jingwen didn't know what to do!
His wife killing Liu Han was something he never dreamed of.
Killing someone means paying with your life.
This is true in every era, not just in the new society.
If caught, it's a capital offense; there's absolutely no chance of redemption.
Qiu Jingwen always believed in the police's ability to solve cases. Not to mention the spies hiding in Duliang County, they would be discovered one day. Even those so-called elite agents of the Military Intelligence Bureau, veteran agents and enemy agents who had infiltrated big cities like Beijing and Shanghai, were all dug out, wiped out and eliminated one by one.
He even thought that,
After all, his wife was just a doctor, not a trained special agent. She would definitely leave clues during the murder, which would soon be identified by the police investigating the case.
Qiu Jingwen was frightened.
This fear was even more terrifying than when he met Liu Han.
If the murder is exposed, this family will also be completely destroyed.
night,
It grew darker and darker, as dark as a deep well, its depths unfathomable.
Qiu Jingwen subconsciously glanced out the window and felt that the outside world was pitch black.
He was breathing heavily when he gently sat up from the bed.
Qiu Jingwen picked up a Pegasus cigarette from the bedside table, put his index and middle fingers together, and flicked one towards his buttocks.
However, after playing for a long time, not a single ball was produced.
Qiu Jingwen simply tore the cigarette box to pieces, took out a cigarette, and put it in his trembling lips.
He struck a match, his hands trembling, and finally managed to light the cigarette.
Qiu Jingwen lit a cigarette, took seven or eight quick puffs, finished the cigarette in one go, and then forcefully shoved it into the ashtray.
At that moment, his mind was blank.
Then gradually, the scene of Liu Han being murdered by his wife appears.
Of course, this scenario is hypothetical.
He couldn't imagine how his wife, Jiang Yuping, a frail woman, could kill a veteran agent.
Although Liu Han is old, he is still a ruthless agent who has killed countless people.
Qiu Jingwen never expected that his gentle wife was a former teenage special agent who had learned martial arts in her youth and received training at the Mei Agency.
Jiang Yuping's strong foundation was still intact. As her memories slowly returned, everything came back to life. For a female special agent who had received training back then, killing a lousy old man was not difficult at all, just as it was as easy for Qiu Jingwen to kill Liu Han.
After finishing his cigarette, Qiu Jingwen looked at his wife on the bed and felt a strange sense of estrangement.
This sense of unfamiliarity sent a shiver down his spine.
His wife killed someone, and he could remain so calm?!
Today, in the infirmary, I was able to chat and laugh with Wei Hong.
How could he so calmly and skillfully bandage the wound on his finger?!
He can still sit in a chair and seriously flip through the Sherlock Holmes stories?
finally,
Qiu Jingwen sat down on the edge of the bed and then slowly began to speak.
"Yu Ping, how could a weak woman like you kill a veteran agent? I simply don't believe it."
