"No one has noticed anything strange about you. Those who were bullied by Feng Yang will be very happy to find that he is no longer bullying them."
"Teachers will also be happy to find that this notorious troublemaker has calmed down after entering high school, and even his grades have improved."
"Your disguise was successful because, apart from Feng Yang himself, no one would suspect anything because Feng Yang changed. To be honest, if our identities weren't opposed, if this case hadn't happened and all of this had happened around me, I might have been happy to witness the birth of a prodigal son."
Xia Che raised his eyes, and in that instant, his aura suddenly changed, becoming sharp and fierce, instantly suppressing the increasingly strong killing intent on Feng Yang's body. "But unfortunately, I am just an observer. I have no feelings for Feng Yang. Whether he changes or not... is none of my business. So I just want to figure out one thing."
"Where is the real Feng Yang?!"
Xia Che spoke slowly and deliberately, gritting his teeth, his cheeks puffed out with anger, bringing an overwhelming sense of menace.
This is what Xia Che truly finds hard to let go of.
Feng Yang... no, we should call him Mosquito now.
Mosquitoes can disguise themselves however they want, and no one can stop Xia Che from pretending to be them. But what he shouldn't have done was to kill someone while trying to make money.
According to Xia Che's speculation, the real Feng Yang is probably already dead.
The body found at the construction site in the east of the city, the skeleton buried in mud...
The time of death was more than six months ago, which, according to the timeline, coincides with the period when Feng Yang was promoted to Linchuan and began to make changes.
Everything seemed to be in place.
Feng Yang didn't speak. As Xia Che's emotions gradually turned into anger, he calmed down, put his hands in his pockets, held his self-defense tools, and just quietly looked at Xia Che.
Xia Che couldn't hide the other party's subtle actions, and he raised his guard to the highest level.
Although according to Xiao Yihan's information, Mosquito has never taken a life, which may be his bottom line, then... if the skeleton at the construction site in the east of the city is indeed Mosquito's work, it means that this fraudster who has a bottom line of not taking human lives has broken his vow.
When a bottom line that has been held for so long is breached, a person's mindset will undergo a significant change.
Since the bottom line has already been crossed, killing one person is the same as killing several, so it doesn't matter.
Xia Che's risky trip here today means he was mentally prepared, so it's impossible for him to be unprepared.
He was waiting for Feng Yang's next move.
Time ticked by, and Feng Yang suddenly sighed and pulled his hand out.
Are we about to make a move?
Xia Che's eyes sharpened, but he noticed that the person in front of him had no weapon in his hand.
This discovery surprised Xia Che slightly.
They were empty-handed?
"She babbled a lot... I didn't understand much of it."
Feng Yang shook his head with a wry smile, then sighed: "Xia Che, your delusions are a bit too severe. Is it because you've read too many mystery novels that you think everything that seems normal actually has a conspiracy behind it?"
Does it matter whether it's delusional or not?
Xia Che sneered: "Do you remember the longevity lock you lost? Actually, this longevity lock was custom-made. Both its design and material are very different from your previous one. But you, who have worn it since childhood and never parted with it... how come you didn't notice the difference?"
"After thinking it over, there is only one possibility to explain this, which is... you didn't know that Feng Yang had a longevity lock before. It wasn't discovered at first because longevity locks are worn close to the body and are difficult to notice during daily communication. But one day, Feng Yang's mother suddenly discovered it and asked you about it, but you couldn't find a reasonable excuse, so you could only say that the longevity lock was suddenly lost."
"Yes, there's no excuse in this world that's easier than losing something. You don't need to explain why it got lost or where it was lost. You just need to make up some excuses and insist that you don't know when it got lost, and then everything will make sense."
"No one would suspect you, and just then... the police informant discovered a clue that Mosquito might have a next move. Although it seems that the other party was probably wrong now, by some twist of fate you heard some rumors and started to feel that Jiang City was not safe. So... the old dog who had ill intentions towards your family delivered himself to your door."
"Then, through your series of maneuvers, he became your best scapegoat. The intervention of law enforcement made you realize that Jiang City was no longer safe, so you decided to leave the country ahead of schedule and leave in such a hurry."
Xia Che clapped his hands and suddenly chuckled: "To figure out whether my reasoning is just paranoia, it's actually quite simple. Just have the law enforcement officers go back to the construction site and dig up the land around where the body was found. I think... finding that lost longevity lock shouldn't be difficult. After all, it's a small thing, so small that even the murderer who killed Feng Yang didn't notice it."
What do you think?
Xia Che tilted his head, the smile on his face intriguing.
These words were like a steel needle, piercing Feng Yang's heart, and he froze on the spot.
Surprisingly...
Is there another longevity lock?
How could he not know?
We didn't notice it at all back then!
"Xia Che, you've really gone mad. I don't understand why you came to me to say all this, but I think your delusions are quite logical. Perhaps you could consider becoming a mystery novelist?"
Feng Yang waved his hand, seemingly giving in: "Alright, alright, there's still a while before boarding. Since you've decided to do it this way, I'll play along with you for a bit."
"Even if everything you're saying is true, what about the evidence? Where is the most crucial evidence?"
Feng Yang shrugged, a hint of amusement in his eyes, and said, "If I remember correctly, Chinese law prioritizes evidence, right? 'Innocence is presumed.' Even if what you're saying is true, without evidence, it seems like you can't be convicted, right?"
The smile on Feng Yang's face was so annoying to Xia Che.
He swore he really wanted to kick him hard in the face with his size 44 foot and see if he could still laugh then.
“You’re right. I really don’t have any evidence to prove that you killed Feng Yang, nor can I prove that you are Mosquito…”
Xia Che looked at Feng Yang seriously, then suddenly shook his head and sighed, "I've finished speaking. You can leave now."
