Perhaps because he heard Sijiu's phone ringing, Wang Zirui poked his head out from the next room. He saw Sijiu's panicked expression at a glance and quickly stood up.
"Xiaojiu, what happened?"
"Captain Qin from the Criminal Investigation Department, let me go over there." Si Jiu suddenly stood up, grabbed the bag hanging on the back of the chair and was about to run out.
Wang Zirui held her back and said, "Don't be so anxious. I'll take you there."
"No, I..."
"It looks urgent. It's hard to get a taxi at this time. I'll take you there." He dragged Si Jiu out without saying anything, and his words and actions were a bit forceful.
Si Jiu was stunned for a moment, but did not refuse. Holding his phone, he almost jogged to keep up with Wang Zirui's extremely fast pace. The two took the elevator down to the parking lot and quickly headed towards the Criminal Investigation Office.
"What's wrong? Are you so nervous? Take a deep breath."
Wang Zirui was driving with one hand. Seeing Si Jiu's hand on her knee clenched into a fist unconsciously, he stretched out his right hand and held her hand.
Si Jiu was so confused that she didn't realize his action.
Qin Huai's words were still echoing in her mind.
"Cheng Yu is your brother? He's currently in the Criminal Investigation Office and was brought in as a suspect. I have one more thing to tell you. This morning, a fingerprint was extracted from the security door. After comparing it to the database, the identity of the owner of that fingerprint has been verified."
There was a pause, and then he said, "Xiaojiu, do you know Qi Yan?"
With a creak, the car stopped outside the Criminal Investigation Office building.
Si Jiu suddenly woke up, "Are we there yet?"
Only then did he realize that Wang Zirui was holding his hand.
“How did you…”
Wang Zirui suddenly leaned over, and Si Jiu's words were instantly stuck. His eyes widened in shock, and he looked terrified.
"puff--"
Wang Zirui reached out and pressed the seat belt buckle to help her unbuckle it. He then let go of her hand and sat back down. "Do you think I want to kiss you?"
At that moment just now, yes.
Si Jiu frowned and slapped Wang Zirui hard on the back of his head, "Are you sick?"
Wang Zirui covered his head with his hands as he cried out, "You looked too serious. I was just trying to lighten the mood. I'm afraid I'll have a concussion. You really have to be responsible for me this time, Xiaojiu."
Si Jiu gritted his teeth, "Why didn't I shoot you like an idiot!"
She angrily opened the car door and got out. Seeing this, Wang Zirui quickly got out and trotted after her, "Then you'll have to support me for the rest of my life."
"I'm not in the mood for chitchat."
She pursed her lips and strode towards the building.
Wang Zirui stood in place, his eyes flashed, he smiled with some helplessness and some indulgence, and quickly followed.
After entering the building, Si Jiu saw Qin Huai at a glance. She hurried over to him, "Captain Qin, my fifth brother..."
"Don't be in a hurry, catch your breath first." He glanced at Wang Zirui who followed him, and was stunned for a moment, as if a little surprised.
Wang Zirui met his gaze and suddenly grinned at him.
Qin Huai frowned slightly.
"His questioning is almost over. You'll see it soon."
"Why is my fifth brother..."
"He said he followed your car because he was worried about you."
The cupbearer was speechless.
This really sounds like something A Yu would do.
"My fifth brother may look like a criminal suspect, but he wouldn't do that. He wouldn't kill anyone."
As soon as he finished speaking, he was gently tapped on the head. "Although I am very touched, what does it mean to look like a criminal suspect? Please explain it to Si Xiaojiu."
Sijiu's eyes lit up and he quickly turned around, "Ayu."
Cheng Yu rubbed her little head and asked, "Are you scared?"
"You scared me to death." Si Jiu cried out and threw herself into Cheng Yu's arms. This caught the tall and strong Cheng Yu off guard and made him stagger backwards. Then a smile spread in his eyes. He held Si Jiu with both hands and stroked her back, "It's okay, I'm fine."
Qin Huai watched this scene, his eyes becoming deeper and deeper.
