My hands and my voice were shaking. The police looked at me like this and exchanged glances with his colleague.
"Calm down first and tell us slowly what happened."
I also wanted to calm down, but everything that had just happened made me so panicked that I couldn't control myself.
I paused for a long time, then spoke haltingly, "It was Yan Meng... He was the one who shot and killed Yuan Yaxin."
I told the police everything that happened in fear, and the police silently took notes.
"So, he shot Yuan Yaxin to avenge you?"
I nodded, then suddenly realized something and quickly shook my head to deny it: "No. I never wanted Yuan Yaxin to die. This was all Yan Meng's own decision."
"Then if he was the murderer, why did he specifically call the police?"
I was stunned by the question. This kind of behavior is simply incomprehensible to ordinary people.
I paused, thinking about his words.
"He said there's no way you can catch him. That's why he's so arrogant."
The policeman looked displeased when he heard this and snorted disdainfully: "He really looks down on us police officers!"
"We have already sent people to search the entire area, but we hope you will cooperate with our investigation at any time."
I nodded instinctively.
Perhaps because they saw that I was frightened, the police did not question me too much. After taking my statement, they sent me to the police car.
As soon as I sat down, I saw them carrying a stretcher and putting Yuan Yaxin's body into the car. The body was covered with a white cloth.
Just one look gave me a chill.
The tragic scene before Yuan Yaxin's death and the look of her eyes open before death kept appearing in my mind.
The police patted my shoulder and reassured me, "Don't be afraid, it's over. We will protect you."
I nodded randomly, but it was hard for me to relax, and all the muscles in my body were tense.
At this time, it was already dawn outside.
My cell phone suddenly rang, pulling my thoughts back from those horrific images.
It was Li Tao. According to the agreement, if he couldn't contact me at this time, he would notify Mingyuan and call the police to track down my whereabouts.
I took a deep breath, managed to calm myself, and answered the phone: "Hello."
My voice became hoarse.
Li Tao asked worriedly, "Miss, are you okay? Did Yan Meng threaten you with anything?"
"I'm fine." I answered him, but I couldn't muster the strength. "I'm on my way back to Ming Mansion. I'll talk to you when I get back."
Li Tao didn't ask any more questions and I hung up the phone.
Afterwards, I couldn’t help but think of Qiu Qiu, and I wondered if Mingyuan had found her.
I quickly dialed Mingyuan's number and the call was connected quickly.
"Xiao Shan, where are you? What did Yan Meng do to you?"
Mingyuan's anxious questioning came from my ears, which made me feel more at ease.
I answered him: "I'm fine, Yan Meng didn't do anything to me."
I immediately asked, "Where's Qiu Qiu? Did you find her?"
Mingyuan also comforted me: "Don't worry, Qiu Qiu is fine. She was just sent away by Yan Meng on an excuse. She didn't suffer any harm."
Hearing that Qiu Qiu was safe, I finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Yan Meng didn't do anything to Qiu Qiu, which made Mingyuan and I very fortunate.
I told Mingyuan frankly, "Uncle, Yan Meng killed Yuan Yaxin and has already fled. I'm in the police car now. I just finished taking my statement and am on my way home."
Mingyuan fell silent and did not show any surprise.
After a long moment, Mingyuan spoke in a serious tone, "Let's talk about it when you get back. Things have gone a little beyond our expectations."
