Chapter 470 Black and White
The gray wolf lay lazily on the ground, its long gray fur looking like satin in the sun, its big tail swinging lazily, and the little orange fur ball followed its tail and pounced on it, having a lot of fun.
Ye Rou sat on the sofa with her legs hugged. On the coffee table in front of her were a dozen plum candies, wrapped in brown oil paper, each one was round.
Her expression was obviously depressed and tired. She fiddled with the candy lazily, looking very listless.
The man hugged her from behind with a cold look, holding her completely in his arms.
Ye Rou leaned back habitually, found a comfortable position and did not move.
"What are you thinking about?" he asked.
Ye Rou paused fiddling with the candy and whispered, "I gave that plum candy to someone else."
"Male or female?" Jiang Chen's focus was different.
Ye Rou was used to it, and with a wrinkled face, she replied, "It's the girl we rescued from the basement. Her name is Sun Baiqing."
"Yeah." Jiang Chen responded casually, hooking Ye Rou's smooth long hair and playing with it.
"The man I rescued died right in front of me."
Ye Rou snuggled into Jiang Chen's arms.
She pretended to be calm in front of Sun Baiqing, but on the way back, Zhou Nan's pale face seemed to be floating on the lake, and a water ball that could not be pressed down would float up from time to time.
The man behind her seemed to sense her uneasiness and hugged her tighter, saying unhappily, "Who took you there?"
Although Ye Rou is a doctor, she is afraid of seeing corpses, especially those that are lifeless and have died in a tragic manner.
Wang Cuiwei chopped off the heads of her husband and mother-in-law. Ye Rou saw the bloody scene and had a nightmare when she returned home that night.
She was so scared that she had to hold Jiang Chen's hand tightly at night and had no appetite for several days. Jiang Chen coaxed her for a long time before she finally forgot about it.
The little hand was slippery and cold. Jiang Chen held it, rubbing and kneading it, but it didn't warm her up again.
Ye Rouhui held his hand and continued, "He left a suicide note saying it was suicide, but I know it wasn't."
Nails were found in the chests of Zhou Nan and Wang Yi.
On these two rusty nails, Ye Rou smelled the scent of Sun Baiqing, a scent that could not be covered by the smell of blood. It must be the smell that can only be acquired by carrying it with him day and night.
She knew that these two nails were closely related to Sun Baiqing.
Ye Rou couldn't tell right from wrong in this matter.
Wang Yi deserved to die.
Zhou Nan felt guilty towards Sun Baiqing and admitted that he was wrong.
They were wrong, so they died.
But is it right that Sun Baiqing is alive?
Ye Rou couldn't judge right from wrong, the only thing she could do was not interfere.
After Cheng Gang confirmed that Wang Yi was dead, he asked Ye Rou, "Did you find anything wrong?"
The moment he asked, Ye Rou already had the answer in her heart.
She shook her head and said, "I don't know."
Ye Rou answered firmly, but after returning home, she couldn't help but start to have wild thoughts.
The more I thought about it, the more depressed I became.
She was stuck in a maze of thoughts and couldn't get out.
Ye Rou subconsciously asked Jiang Chen for help, "I don't know what to do."
Her tone was completely bewildered.
After listening to this, Jiang Chen fell silent.
Ye Rou did a stupid thing - she shouldn't have asked him for help.
She sat obediently in his arms, her profile delicate, her black hair hanging down. Now she sat with her eyes lowered, her face as white and beautiful as a white jade goddess, extremely compassionate.
Jiang Chen deeply realized at this moment that she and he were completely different people.
From Dahe Village to Jing City, she saved many people intentionally or unintentionally along the way.
Jiang Chen is one of them.
She was always saving people, and he almost killed someone today.
Ye Rou is white, and Jiang Chen is black that can devour everything.
A twisted and sinister emotion suddenly arose in his heart.
Why do you always focus on those who don't matter?
She was sad when the old man from the military district died.
The strange woman rescued from the basement also touched her heart.
Jiang Chen's emotions were already unstable when he saw Kang Guangzong.
Crazy, terrifying, and twisted, the thoughts that he had once forced himself to suppress became even more twisted and gloomy, crowding his heart like a dark mass.
He couldn't help but wonder, if she were there today, would she stop him and save Kang Guangzong?
In her heart, is right or wrong more important or is he more important?
Jiang Chen couldn't think of an answer.
Or maybe he simply didn't allow Ye Rou to stand against him.
When he thought about it, Ye Rou would look at him with disgust as if he were a madman.
Jiang Chen's heart twisted, and he couldn't help but tighten his arms and hug her tighter.
Want to stain her.
She shouldn't be so kind, shouldn't be so clean, shouldn't and can't stand against him.
Jiang Chen lowered his head and kissed her exceptionally soft face. His movements were gentle, and his tone was bewitching: "Sun Baiqing killed someone, are you afraid of her?"
He was asking about Sun Baiqing, but actually it was him.
If he killed someone, would Ye Rou be afraid and want to escape from him?
Jiang Chen wanted to know the answer, but was afraid that the answer was not what he wanted.
He looked down at the girl in his arms. She pursed her lips and her thick eyelashes curled up. It was obvious that she was thinking seriously about his question.
She was only twenty-two years old, the age of a flower, so beautiful, so innocent, all the brightness in the world was in her.
Jiang Chen loved her so much that he wanted to eat her up.
Being with her, he could easily feel happy even if he was just doing some ordinary little things.
But this happiness is too ethereal and too uncontrollable. If Ye Rou takes it back, he will be helpless.
Ye Rou thought for a moment and said seriously: "I um——"
Jiang Chen lowered his head and kissed her lips, entwining the tip of his tongue with hers, blocking out all her words.
His kiss was lingering and focused, and a fragility that Ye Rou could not understand flashed across his deep eyes.
He seemed... scared.
But why would Jiang Chen be afraid?
Ye Rou thought she had seen it wrong.
Soon she had no other thoughts. Jiang Chen was too familiar with her body and took control of everything easily.
Ye Rou's face flushed, her eyelashes trembled, and her snow-white arms crossed around the man's neck.
The man chuckled, picked her up and walked upstairs.
As the door to the second floor closed.
I know the masters won’t come out for a while.
Little Huihui skillfully pulled the orange fur ball over, bit the kitten's neck with his canine teeth, and walked out while biting its tail.
——
Sun Baiqing sat alone on the bed, having lived in the basement without seeing the light for three years. She was very thin and pale, and her stature did not resemble that of an adult. She looked more like a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl who had not developed.
The blue and white striped hospital gown was empty.
She lowered her head and kept fiddling with the brown oil paper in her hands, trying to fold the square piece of candy paper into the shape of a thousand paper cranes.
Jiang Weiguo glanced at Sun Baiqing through the window on the door, then looked away with a frown on his face, his expression so gloomy that it seemed as if water was about to drip out.
"Two people died at once, right under the police's noses. How am I supposed to explain this to the higher-ups?"
Cheng Gang lowered his head and listened attentively.
"I'm sorry, Chief."
"Saying sorry now is useless!" Jiang Weiguo said angrily, "What the hell is going on?"
Cheng Gang said: "Zhou Nan killed Wang Yi and then committed suicide. He left a suicide note before his death."
Jiang Weiguo looked suspicious, pointed at the ward, and asked in a low voice, "Is it related to Sun Baiqing?"
Cheng Gang smiled bitterly, "There is no evidence."
This shows that he is also doubtful.
"Zhou Nan's legs were broken by Zhou Quan, how could he kill someone!" Jiang Weiguo questioned.
Cheng Gang shook his head and said, "I asked the doctor, and it seems Zhou Nan is faking it. He can walk, but he's pretending to be disabled."
"Pretending?" Jiang Weiguo's voice was almost split by surprise.
Cheng Gang said helplessly, "According to Sun Baiqing's account, Zhou Nan pretended to be disabled and mute in order to avoid being tortured by Zhou Quan. She said that Zhou Nan told her this himself."
"Zhou Nan is dead, so whether it's true or not depends on her words."
Jiang Weiguo lowered his voice and said, "Is there no other evidence? No one in the hospital saw it?"
Cheng Gang replied, "I've already sent someone to investigate and try to find evidence."
"It's not about striving, it's about making sure!"
Jiang Weiguo said with a cold face, "If this gets out, it will be the police department's fault! The higher-ups will definitely ask, how much longer can I hold out? One day, at most."
Cheng Gang looked embarrassed, "Director, one day is not..."
"Just one day." Jiang Weiguo's position was already unstable, and he must not give the impression of being incompetent to his superiors.
He said in a deep voice, "If we can't find any key evidence within a day, we will close the case as Zhou Nan committing murder and then committing suicide."
"Bureau..."
"Shut up! If you have time to bargain with me, why not go find evidence now!"
"yes!"
