Chapter 158 The Truth
Unexpectedly, the cards that Xia Lili had left for Aunt Wu finally turned out to be a royal flush!
Fifteen minutes later.
Two police officers carrying a stretcher and a doctor found Xia Lili.
"Officer Xia, huh?"
The police officer hurried towards Xia Lili.
One of the two police officers looked like an experienced officer, and the other was a young officer.
The young police officer said to Xia Lili, "I'm Yan Hong, who contacted you earlier. This is my master, Ma Qiaoyun. I'm sorry we didn't get there in time and you got hurt."
Xia Lili greeted the two of them and said, "Thank you for your help."
The doctor had brought a tool kit and a specialized freezer for tetanus vaccines.
The doctor treated Xia Lili's wound, pulled out the nail, disinfected it and stopped the bleeding, and gave Xia Lili a tetanus vaccine.
Xia Lili was carried onto a stretcher by two police officers, who reminded him, "The suspect and the victim have been apprehended by the enthusiastic hotel staff. They are on the fifth floor of the hotel."
Yan Hong hurriedly said, "Okay, let's rush over now. My four colleagues have already arrived at the hotel."
"Little girl, why don't you go back to your room and rest for a while?" Ma Qiaoyun asked with concern when he saw Xia Lili's feet were wrapped in circles of gauze.
"No, I must go to the scene to find out." Xia Lili was full of doubts. She couldn't sleep unless she figured it out now.
Xia Lili and the police officers went to room 508 of the hotel.
When passing by the open door of Room 507, Aunt Wu and Wei Shan in the room were shocked to see Xia Lili in a wheelchair.
Aunt Wu quickly chased out and said, "Miss Xia, what happened to your foot?"
"It's nothing serious." Xia Lili shook her head. "I was just pricked by a nail. Now I can't walk."
The technicians from the laboratory had already arrived at the scene. They carefully took photos and videos of the appearance of the cup of milk that Aunt Wu was protecting as evidence, and then put the milk and the tray into a liquid shockproof box while wearing gloves.
Wei Shan saw two police officers standing next to Xia Lili, with a look of confusion on her face: "Lili, what is going on? Why would Yidan want to kill me?"
"That's what I wanted to ask too." Xia Lili and Yan Hong asked for a recorder that police officers carry with them when investigating a case.
She turned on the recording and looked at Wei Shan with a complicated expression: "But before that, I have a question."
"What on earth did Yang Yidan say to you that made you look so disgusted with me?"
Wei Shan's pale lips moved.
"Yang Yidan said that on your first night on Shanghai Island, you shared a room with her. Knowing that her family was wealthy, she asked her to borrow 300,000 yuan to renovate the express delivery station that your family had bought."
Xia Lili said coldly: "I have never borrowed money from Yang Yidan."
Wei Shan opened her eyes wide in horror: "Then she..."
"She said she regretted coming to the island with you. She also told me that not only did you borrow money from her, but you also used her skincare products and stole her things. She hated being with you, but she couldn't get away from you."
Xia Lili was speechless after hearing this, and felt scared that she had actually stayed with such a two-faced person for three days.
Yang Yidan is really good at disguising herself. If it weren't for what happened today, Xia Lili would probably have always regarded Yang Yidan as a straightforward, free-spirited and simple-minded person.
Xia Lili looked at Wei Shan thoughtfully. "So, that day, the two of you secretly went out to sea without telling me. You said you took the initiative to ask Yang Yidan to dive into the water and then come ashore from another port to find you, so that you could go fishing together."
"Did she instruct you to say this?"
Wei Shan swallowed her saliva as she recalled that day. "Yidami said she didn't want to go diving with you, but she couldn't leave you alone. So she had to find a way to sneak over and go sea fishing with me."
"She found someone who put on the same diving suit as her and would pop up from time to time so you would think she was still diving."
Xia Lili remembered the "Yang Yidan" who made gestures to herself and the diving instructor on the shore that day.
At that time, I subconsciously thought that the person was Yang Yidan based on the camouflage diving suit and fluorescent green mask.
It now seems that Yang Yidan has found a substitute, and the real Yang Yidan has swam to another port.
And Yang Yidan was so sure that there would be a chance to replace a substitute, because he had calculated that he would not be able to adapt to diving for the first time?
Impossible, unless there is a reason for me to surface after entering the water...
Could it be that Yang Yidan had tampered with his diving oxygen equipment?
This woman seems straightforward, but she is actually more cunning than a needle!
After Wei Shan finished speaking to Xia Lili, her heart suddenly skipped a beat.
Her face was stiff: "Could it be that Yidan wanted to kill me that day?"
Xia Lili nodded gently. "That day, Yang Yidan made me think she was diving the whole time. But her plan was to go out to sea with you, kill you on the speedboat, dump your body in the sea, and then dive back."
"According to her plan, I can become a witness to provide her with an alibi."
Xia Lili's words made Wei Shan feel like she was falling into an ice cellar. She took a breath of cold air and said, "How could this happen? Why did she want to kill me?"
"Lili, how did you know she wanted to kill me?"
Xia Lili made up an excuse: "It was during that trip out to sea. I was riding a motorboat and accidentally bumped into you guys. Your attitude towards me was strange to me, especially the fact that Yidan went to such great lengths to disappear from my sight."
"I have very good eyesight, but later I accidentally saw her sending a message to someone else, saying she wanted to find an opportunity to kill you, and I got very worried."
Xia Lili shook her head. "She asked me to go downstairs for a walk tonight. I got pricked by a nail in my foot, and she said she'd find a doctor for me. Suddenly, I remembered the text message she sent to someone else, so I quickly called you. But there was no signal where I was, and the video froze immediately."
"When the signal came back, I realized you had hung up, so I quickly called Aunt Wu, the cleaning lady I knew."
Wei Shan showed an expression of sudden enlightenment, "No wonder you didn't say anything after calling me on video. It turned out to be a lag."
Wei Shan's back was soaked with sweat. She held Xia Lili's wrist tightly, as if she had grabbed her lifeline: "I'm sorry, Lili, I misunderstood you. Thank you for saving me!"
"I really don't know why she wanted to kill me. She's helped me so much!"
Xia Lili pondered for a moment and asked, "Your family owes so much debt, have you ever taken the initiative to ask Yang Yidan for money?"
Wei Shan quickly shook her head.
Xia Lili narrowed her eyes. "I was walking along the dock the other day when I saw you board the speedboat that was about to go out to sea. You were also talking on the phone with someone. Who was that person?"
Wei Shan opened her eyes wide when she heard this and looked straight at Xia Lili: "You, you heard everything"
