Chapter 47
"Tell me, what happened exactly that day?" He Jiaming raised his chin.
He Jiaming was very calm and collected, and had a fair and strict attitude, and did not say that he was a murderer.
This calmed Liang Kai down a lot.
This was a chance to prove himself. Liang Kai regretted his unnecessary escape and honestly told what happened that day.
"The night before last, I went to see Bao Lixia. We had an argument. I was very angry and choked her. At that time... she fainted. I thought I had strangled her to death. I was scared and ran away. Not long after, I saw the news. The news said that Bao Lixia was stabbed to death. There was a lot of blood at the scene. I saw the photos.
I knew immediately that something had happened after I left, but I was at the scene after all. I was afraid that you wouldn't be able to catch the real murderer, so you'd mistake me for the murderer, so I hid. Officer, I swear everything I said is true. I really didn't kill Bao Lixia."
"What is your relationship with Bao Lixia?" He Jiaming asked.
"We are colleagues, she is my leader..."
"Tell the truth." He Jiaming stared at him seriously.
It was obvious that he did not believe this answer.
"It's my boss. She cares about me and wants to promote me..."
"Tell the truth." He Jiaming was a little impatient. "Do you think we didn't investigate thoroughly before bringing you here? What is your relationship with Bao Lixia? Do you think we don't know? If I ask you, just answer honestly."
Liang Kai hesitated, but finally said it.
Anyway, the person is dead, and it wasn't him who killed him, so he has nothing to worry about others finding out.
"I'm Bao Lixia's...boyfriend."
"She's married, didn't you know?"
"I know, but they're no longer in love. Bao Lixia said they'll get divorced soon, so I... Anyway, they each get what they need. This isn't anything new."
"Bao Lixia has many boyfriends like you, right? How many of them have you met? Have there been any conflicts between them and Bao Lixia?"
Liang Kai thought for a moment and shook his head: "I haven't heard of any conflict. Sister Li... Bao Lixia is very generous to people. Even if we broke up, she gave us a breakup fee of more than three million..."
"Then why did you want to strangle her?"
"I didn't want to strangle her... I... I realized I was really a little in love with her. She said she would divorce and be with me, and I thought she was serious about me, but she actually wanted to break up with me. She even found another man before breaking up with me. I got angry for a moment, so... But I really didn't use a knife. I didn't kill her."
Liang Kai was now filled with remorse and rubbed his face with his hands.
He said regretfully, "If I hadn't gone to find her that day, she wouldn't have died..."
"Do you have anyone you suspect?" He Jiaming asked. "Has she ever told you about her enemies? Does anyone hate her?"
"No." Liang Kai shook his head. "Sister Li is popular. Everyone in the company likes her. She's generous and often treats everyone to milk tea and cake. I can't imagine anyone hating her enough to want to kill her."
——
Outside the black mirror.
Several police officers stood and listened, including Chen Muting.
Chen Muting protected Liang Kai and was called to the police station early in the morning.
Chen Muting told everything she knew.
Although she wanted Liang Kai to be unlucky, killing someone was not something to be taken lightly.
Chen Muting asked the police officer next to her, "Is Liang Kai okay?"
"If he didn't kill the person, then nothing will happen to him."
After Liang Kai was brought out of the place where he would die, he met Chen Muting.
"Tingting, you...I've implicated you." Liang Kai looked dejected and walked past her with his head lowered.
Chen Muting looked at him coldly. She was also surprised that she could be so calm. Perhaps this was the feeling of having a dead heart.
Chen Muting was forgiven after she wrote a self-criticism and apologized sincerely.
Went back to the company to continue working.
Liang Kai is still a suspect and will be imprisoned for the time being.
Can't leave.
＊
Gu Tanxi followed Liu Minyu all day today.
Liu Minyu doesn't go out on field work and stays in the office.
Gu Tanxi stayed in the office with him for a day.
Liu Minyu doesn't have much daily work to do.
Even less today.
So the two of them ordered takeout in the office and had already eaten seven meals.
It’s time to get off work.
The rose-red little Q-shaped person just smiled evilly the whole day, didn't say a word, and just looked at everyone quietly.
There was nothing abnormal with Liu Minyu's body.
Gu Tanxi was not idle either. She was trying hard to recall what her mother was like before she died.
The mother in my memory is a gentle, kind and happy person.
She loved her father very much, and their family of three was once a very happy one.
But it was very sudden that my mother was exposed for cheating on me and betraying my father.
Now that she thinks about it carefully, she can feel that things did become a little strange for a while before her mother committed suicide.
But her memory is too vague. It would be great if she could go back in time and take a look.
How credible are the words of the rose-red little Q person?
He said his mother committed suicide, but was forced into a desperate situation.
Who forced her and how?
The more Gu Tanxi thought about it, the more his head hurt.
Liu Minyu saw the message on his phone and said happily, "Sister Gu, they caught Liang Kai."
"Did he kill the person?" Gu Tanxi asked.
"He said no. The evidence is incomplete and the murder weapon hasn't been found. It only proves that he did go to the deceased's home, but it doesn't prove that he murdered her."
Liu Minyu stretched out his body after he finished speaking, and said with a smile: "I don't have anything to do for the time being, I'm going to take a nap, I'm so sleepy."
Gu Tanxi picked up the phone: "You go to sleep, I'll play games."
Seeing that she had something to do and wouldn't be bored, Liu Minyu adjusted the back of his chair with peace of mind, put on his eye mask and went to sleep.
Gu Tanxi was not playing games, she was pretending.
Wait until Liu Minyu falls asleep.
Men generally have good sleep quality and it is true that they can snore as soon as they lie down.
Liu Minyu started snoring softly within a few minutes.
Gu Tanxi stood up and walked over quietly.
The rose-red little Q-shaped figure looked at her.
Gu Tanxi bent down, moved closer to the little girl, and whispered, "Let's be friends?"
The little Q man didn't answer, just looked at her.
Gu Tanxi continued, "You used to hide in someone else's body, and no one knew you. But now it's different. I can see you. This is the Supernatural Bureau. Everyone knows you exist and is watching you. One day, we will find a way to destroy you. Why don't you tell me now what you are? Maybe I can help you, at least to prevent you from dying."
Little Q listened and was thinking.
After a while, it said, "Don't you just want to know how your mother died?"
"I do want to know, can you tell me?"
"I have no idea."
"You're lying, you must know it."
"I just don't know. I'm not human, so how can I know why she committed suicide? I don't understand your human emotions at all."
"Are you saying that my mother committed suicide because of emotional problems?"
"How should I know?" The little Q rolled his eyes.
It has no human emotions and cannot empathize.
Who knows why she was crying and suddenly cut herself with a knife?
"You said last time that my mother was forced to death. Who was it?"
The little Q-man's eyes suddenly became evil when he looked at her, and the corners of his mouth rose even more.
"Everyone."
"What do you mean? Including my dad?"
The little Q-man stopped talking again, closed his eyes, and took out an eye mask from his pocket and put it on.
It now has the same shape as Liu Minyu.
It's so annoying, you always say half the words.
＊
After get off work, He Jiaming came to the Ability Bureau to see Liu Minyu.
Apart from feeling uncomfortable being monitored, Liu Minyu didn't feel anything special now.
Gu Tanxi said that the strange thing was still in Liu Minyu's body.
He Jiaming has no special abilities, so he can neither see nor feel.
You can only trust Gu Tanxi.
"Captain He, has the murderer been caught?" Gu Tanxi asked.
"No, Liang Kai was caught, but he denied it, there was insufficient evidence, and the murder weapon was not found... I came here to ask you for a favor, can't you chat with the furniture? Can you go to the scene with me and provide me with some clues?" He Jiaming's attitude was very friendly.
It was the kind that Gu Tanxi was embarrassed to refuse.
Jiang Youqi's voice immediately came from outside the door: "The people who came to borrow my property didn't even say hello to me?"
He Jiaming smiled and said, "How dare I? I want to wait until Xiao Gu agrees before asking you for instructions. Let's go to the scene together."
Jiang Youqi: "That's fine, I happen to be free, Xiao Liu can come with me, and we can go home together."
Liu Minyu: "Okay, okay."
He Jiaming: "Is there anything delicious tonight?"
Jiang Youqi: "Of course."
He Jiaming: "It's so happy to be your subordinate."
Jiang Youqi: "Transfer here?"
He Jiaming: "I would like to, but I don't have any special abilities."
Jiang Youqi and He Jiaming walked in front while chatting, while Gu Tanxi and Liu Minyu followed behind.
Jiang Youqi walked a little and then looked back.
He Jiaming joked, "Don't be so nervous, that thing can't run away."
Jiang Youqi didn't say anything.
Gu Tanxi saw Jiang Youqi's little Q-man pop up and yelled at He Jiaming, "Who's looking at him?"
Gu Tanxi pursed his lips and smiled.
If Captain Jiang didn't want to be the captain in the bureau, he would probably be a nitpicker.
＊
There were several people standing at the door of Bao Lixia's villa.
One of them is Bao Lixia’s husband Tian Weifeng.
The others were wearing suits and ties.
Gu Tanxi and the others walked over.
He Jiaming asked: "Mr. Tian, what are you doing?"
When Tian Weifeng saw them, he was surprised and a little flustered, and even stuttered when he started talking.
"I, this, they are the intermediaries."
"Agent? Mr. Tian wants to sell his house?" He Jiaming asked.
Tian Weifeng smiled awkwardly and said, "I did have this plan, so I asked the agent to come over for an estimate..."
"Mr. Tian, the case has not been solved yet and the scene still needs to be protected. You can't sell the house for the time being," said He Jiaming.
"I know. I just want to estimate the price in advance. I have an idea in my mind. After all, someone died... the price will be greatly discounted." Tian Weifeng said dejectedly. If there had been no murder in this villa, the price could be sold for 100 million yuan, but now, there might not be anyone who would buy it even for 70 million yuan.
"Don't you care who killed your wife?" He Jiaming asked.
"I care, but what can I do? Doesn't it depend on you to solve the case and catch the murderer? After my wife died, I had to deal with all the affairs in the company by myself. I'm so overwhelmed now." Tian Weifeng frowned as he spoke.
"Officer He, have you caught the murderer?"
"No, Mr. Tian, have you ever seen this style of knife?" He Jiaming took out a photo of the murder weapon.
When Tian Weifeng saw the photo, sweat broke out on his forehead.
"What kind of knife is this? I've never seen it before..."
