Chapter 264: The CEO’s White Moonlight (18)
In the police station, the short man was crying.
Qu Xiangran hugged Shi Yi’s shoulders tightly, wishing he could punch and kick him to vent his anger. If he hadn’t been alert, Shi Yi wouldn’t know what would happen to him now.
Thinking of the moment when he saw the strange man through the peephole, his heart still can’t calm down.
When Shi Yi was with him, she never contacted anyone, and he never heard Shi Yi mention anyone. Normally, Shi Yi would not invite anyone to his home. So, when he saw the strange man for the first time, he was sure that he had bad intentions.
Fortunately, he was alert and quickly sent a text message to the police, then found the key and opened the door. Fortunately, the man was only after money, so he let Shi Yi go and was about to leave when Shi Yi knocked him down with something, giving him the opportunity to capture him. The community police also arrived in time and didn’t give the man a chance to escape.
The language description is really bland, and he was really involved in this incident, and now thinking about it, he is really scared. Shi Yi in his arms must have been frightened tonight, otherwise he wouldn't have been silent for so long.
"Name." The old policeman's eyes were like torches, staring at the short man's every move.
"Zhang Laifu." The short man hung his head, his hands tightly grasping his hair, looking listless.
It was only his first time committing a crime tonight, but he didn't expect to be caught by the police. It was also his bad luck that he chose such a thin girl to attack, and chose when she was quarreling with her boyfriend.
"Motive for the crime." The old policeman asked questions, and the young policeman took notes.
"Let's go out and wait." Qu Xiangran moved the hand on Shi Yi's shoulder.
"Okay." Shi Yi grabbed his arm and sighed inaudibly.
After about half an hour, the young policeman came out with the notes and invited Shi Yi in.
"Officer, what is this?" Qu Xiangran looked at Shi Yi's back disappearing at the door and was a little nervous.
"Routine. Don't worry." The young policeman was gentle.
Qu Xiangran took a deep breath and kicked the chair at his feet away.
"We have investigated the matter clearly." The old police officer led the young police officer out of the recording room.
Qu Xiangran held Shi Yi's hand tightly, waiting for his announcement.
"The perpetrator Zhang Laifu is an unemployed vagrant. Recently, he lost a gambling bet with a friend in society and wanted to steal something to solve the problem. He had been scouting the gate of the community for a long time and finally chose your girlfriend. Because according to his observation, your girlfriend is often alone at home, and you are the only one who comes and goes. Moreover, the conditions for committing the crime are convenient. There is a vacant house next door, and it is very convenient to turn over from the balcony. In order to facilitate the crime, he specially bought a set of crime clothes online. However, he has been caught now, and there will be legal punishment for him. You can go back with peace of mind."
"Thank you, police officer." Qu Xiangran took the lead in bowing to the two people's servants, and Shi Yi held the old police officer's hand for a long time.
"However, his record mentioned something very strange." The old police officer suddenly remembered this when he saw them leaving.
"What is it?" Qu Xiangran's heart was in his throat, and Shi Yi's eyes rolled around, obviously he was also very concerned about this matter.
"When Zhang Laifu broke into your house, he said he seemed to see a dark shadow flash before his eyes, which scared him. I think he was guilty because our comrades searched your house several times inside and outside but didn't find anyone." The old police officer was very kind and wanted to appease the two people, but he didn't expect that after he finished speaking, the two people in front of him became even more silent.
"Thank you, officer." Shi Yi and Qu Xiangran bowed at the same time.
Qu Xiangran frowned deeply, and when he walked out of the police station, he immediately grabbed Shi Yi's hand and stopped her from going home.
Shi Yi also had some concerns in her heart. She let him pull her into the taxi.
"I will rent a new community for you tomorrow. You can't live there anymore." The words "It's too dangerous" were swallowed back into his mouth.
"Qu Xiangran, do you think there is a thief in this world..."
Before Shi Yi could fully express her meaning, Qu Xiangran understood it and interrupted her in an instant. He said in a very relaxed tone to ease her anxiety: "Some things are true if you believe them. Moreover, after the founding of the country, no spirits are allowed."
He didn't think in these directions. He thought that the thief must have an accomplice to commit the crime, and Zhang Laifu's words were just to excuse his accomplice. Only Zhang Laifu was caught today, and the other one will come to make trouble in the future.
Tonight was an unbearable night for Qu Xiangran, not to mention Shi Yi in his arms. He glanced at the melancholy in her eyebrows and felt distressed, so he stayed in the hotel to accompany her.
In the bathroom, Shi Yi stood under the shower head, staring at the glass shower door with her eyes open. What scared her today was not the thief, but the black shadow.
The hot water that could make her skin feel painful poured down from her shoulders continuously. She suddenly closed her eyes, and then opened them.
Fu Sheng, whom she hated, seemed to appear beside her again. She had to finish this strategy mission as soon as possible. Otherwise, she would face the fear of being tortured and killed by Fu Sheng again.
The door opened, and Qu Xiangran was talking to Xiaohua at home on the phone.
"Madam has taken sleeping pills and fallen asleep, don't worry." Xiaohua hung up the phone and looked at the wife standing behind her. She was so scared that she didn't dare to move. She didn't hear the footsteps just now.
"Madam, why did you get up?" Xiaohua asked in a trembling voice.
She just said a few words to Qu Xiangran, but she didn't even notice that the wife walked behind her. She deserved to be scared.
"Qu Xiangran is not coming back?"
Xiaohua was scared by the eyes and tone of Qu's mother. Xiaohua replied tremblingly, "The president said he will work overtime tonight."
She found that the wife's face looked worse, and quickly added: "However, he just asked about your physical condition, and he hung up because I said you fell asleep."
"I know. Go to bed." Qu's mother sat next to the phone, but her eyes were empty and she looked out the dark window.
Xiaohua walked to the stairs and looked back at her, realizing that her movements were too strange. It was late at night and in such a large mansion, they were the only two people there, so they couldn't help but feel a little scared, and hurried back to their room.
"Go wash up." Shi Yi tapped him on the back, lay down on the bed, and covered himself with a quilt.
When Qu Xiangran came out, the person lying on the bed had already fallen asleep, so he closed the curtains. Outside the window was the city's most prosperous commercial center, with bright lights and busy streets. He lay back on the bed, staring at the quiet sleeping face in his arms, and didn't close his eyes all night.
It was also from this night that he discovered that the originally indifferent Le Shiyi gradually began to change, becoming more dependent on and trusting of himself.
He was both happy and unhappy. Because the things that made Le Shiyi change made him too distressed.
