Chapter 81 Bones



The police car stopped outside the dessert shop, and Jiang Wanyan and Yin You both had dazed expressions.

They dug up "treasure" just by digging casually. Their luck is one in a million.

A female police officer comforted him, saying, "It's okay, don't be afraid."

Jiang Wanyan asked anxiously, "Can you tell me who that is?"

The female police officer said: "We don't know yet. We need further testing to find out."

Yin You glanced at the people coming in and out and asked her, "Can we go home then?"

"If possible, I hope you can come back to the police station with us."

The female officer explained, "This is a murder case. We need your cooperation in the investigation. This isn't about suspicion; it's just normal procedure. We also need to ensure your safety. Some criminals may return to the crime scene, and you could be in danger."

Jiang Wanyan had no problem with that. She nodded and said, "I can go back with you guys, but I need to call my husband and tell him."

"Okay, but it needs to be played outside."

No matter what, the murderer has not been caught. Before that, everyone is a suspect.

Jiang Wanyan didn't refuse and sent it out directly.

"Do you need me to pick you up?"

The call was connected, and before Jiang Wanyan could speak, Xi Chenzhu asked.

"No need," Jiang Wanyan explained, "I have something to do, so I won't be going back tonight."

"To the studio?"

"No," Jiang Wanyan looked at the female police officer, who nodded, and she said, "Youzi and I are going to the police station."

"Police station? What happened? Which police station? I'm coming over now."

The nervousness and worry in her tone could not be concealed. Yin You was standing beside her, grinning, and those who didn't know would think something was wrong with her.

Jiang Wanyan could see that Yin You was making fun of her. His eyes seemed to be saying: Is this considered a marriage by agreement?

Jiang Wanyan blushed slightly, looked away, avoiding Yin You's gaze, and said to Xi Chenzhu, "It's okay, there's something going on at the store. Youzi and I can just go over there."

Xi Chenzhu insisted, "Tell me the address and I'll go with you."

Jiang Wanyan looked at the female police officer in embarrassment, and the latter smiled and said, "Family members can come."

Jiang Wanyan nodded gratefully and told Xi Chenzhu the location of the police station.

After saying that, the female police officer and another police officer took Jiang Wanyan and Yin Youxian back to the police station.

On the way back to the police station, the female police officer kept chatting with Jiang Wanyan and the others. They didn't talk about the bones, but just some ordinary topics.

For example, why did they come here to open a dessert shop, or how to praise their clothes and dressing. In short, they talked about anything that could make people relax.

The female police officer had a faint smile on her face the whole time, and Jiang Wanyan gradually became less nervous than she was at the beginning. The other person's smile seemed to carry infinite power, which made her feel at ease for some reason.

When they arrived at the police station, the female police officer immediately became serious, like a different person. She took Jiang Wanyan and Yin You to take a statement.

Jiang Wanyan and Yin You did not hide anything and told everything they knew.

When the female officer was about to leave, Jiang Wanyan stopped her and said hesitantly, "I heard something. I don't know if it will help the case."

The female police officer encouraged, "You talk, I'm listening."

Jiang Wanyan said, "I heard that the shop used to be a bun shop. The owner ran away with someone else, and his son didn't come home. The owner locked himself in the bun shop and left after a long time without any warning."

Everyone thought that the boss was disheartened and didn't want to say a word to the people here because he didn't want to think about the sad things, so he left silently.

Now a skeleton was dug up in the yard, and Jiang Wanyan suspected that the skeleton belonged to the proprietress.

The female police officer nodded and said, "Thank you, this is of great help to the case."

Not long after the female police officer left, someone took Jiang Wanyan and Yin You to the lounge to rest.

Not long after, Xi Chenzhu arrived.

There was a thin layer of sweat on his forehead. He walked into the lounge and immediately walked up to Jiang Wanyan, holding her hand and asking worriedly, "Are you scared?"

On his way here, he asked someone to check briefly what happened.

His subordinates told him that Jiang Wanyan's dessert shop was surrounded, and they thought something must have happened inside.

Xi Chenzhu held Jiang Wanyan's face, trying to see something from her expression.

Jiang Wanyan felt embarrassed by his gaze and shook her head gently, saying, "It's okay. I'm not afraid anymore."

It’s actually a lie to say you’re not afraid, because those are real human bones, not models.

Xi Chenzhu sat down next to Jiang Wanyan and said softly, "You can tell me anything. I know you won't do anything bad."

Jiang Wanyan didn't know if she could tell Xi Chenzhu about the discovery of the bones. After much hesitation, she didn't say anything. She just said, "Thank you. I'll tell you if I need anything."

Yin You clicked his tongue and said, "Alright, you two, stop being so affectionate in front of me. Don't you know I'm alone?"

She felt unhappy when she thought about the fact that Lin Du was still a stranger to her. Look at Jiang Wanyan, who got the marriage certificate on the day they met. God knows how much she wanted to follow their example and get the marriage certificate with Lin Du first.

Jiang Wanyan coughed lightly, distanced herself from Xi Chenzhu, and took Yin You's arm, saying, "Okay, I'll give you some advice after we get out."

How could Jiang Wanyan not see what Yin You was thinking? Although everyone said not to interfere in the affairs of couples, Jiang Wanyan felt that it was impossible for her not to interfere.

Yin You's view on love is obviously different from that of normal people. If one day he goes crazy and knocks Lin Du unconscious and brings him home, it will be really over between the two of them.

Yin You asked suspiciously, "Didn't you forbid me from getting close to him?"

Jiang Wanyan sighed and said, "It's not that I don't allow it, I'm just worried that you won't be able to control yourself and do something too extreme and scare people away."

Xi Chenzhu listened to their casual conversation and suddenly felt that it made no difference whether he was there or not, and he felt uncomfortable.

The people in the police station realized Xi Chenzhu's identity later. Someone came in and told them that they could go back. It was not because they were afraid of Xi Chenzhu, but because with Xi Chenzhu there, Jiang Wanyan was not alone and would not be in danger.

Not to mention Yin You. A little investigation will reveal that Yin You has learned many self-defense skills, and ordinary men cannot beat her at all.

The police took their contact information and let them go.

Standing at the door of the police station, Jiang Wanyan asked worriedly, "Yuzi, are you really okay on your own?"

Yin You didn't explain to Jiang Wanyan how powerful she was. She smiled and said, "I'll go back to the old house. Is it safe enough?"

Hearing this, Jiang Wanyan felt relieved. The security of the Yin family's old house was impeccable.

Everyone went back to their own homes. Jiang Wanyan lay on the bed with the light on and didn't want to turn it off.

She was still frightened by what she had seen not long ago.

Xi Chenzhu didn't ask to turn off the lights. He heated up the milk as usual, took out a book from somewhere, leaned against the headboard, and asked, "Shall I tell you a story?"
