Chapter 4: Storm is Coming (Part 4)

Gao Bochuan narrowed his eyes, suddenly took her hand, and brought her directly back to his office. He closed the door casually, then pushed her down on a stool with her hands on the armrests. He looked unfathomably sharp and shrewd, and his voice was low and flickering.

"Xia Beibei, are you studying psychology or did you drink some potion that can see into people's minds? Sometimes, you can't see through people's minds, but you can hear their thoughts, right? You really have the ability to read minds, right?"

Xia Beibei was stunned, and her expression changed almost imperceptibly. He spoke next to her ear, his voice was very low, but very seductive and even frightening.

She pushed him away with all her strength, then jumped up from the stool in a panic, and laughed:

"Boss, what are you talking about? What mind reading? I just have a deep understanding of psychology. What potion? Where is there a potion that can understand other people's thoughts? This is not a TV drama. Haha, I don't understand what you are talking about."

Xia Beibei started her usual pattern of joking and was about to leave when she suddenly heard a low sigh behind her.

"Twenty years ago, there was a scientist named Xia Qingsong. His son, who was also a scientist, developed a potion. It was said that after drinking the potion, one could see through people's minds and hear what they said. Because of the potion, the Xia family was targeted by a killer organization. Later, the Xia family was wiped out and the potion disappeared."

The playful smile on Xia Beibei's face had completely disappeared. She did not look back, but the blood in her body froze in an instant. She clenched her fists tightly, veins on her forehead bulged, and a deep look like a storm flashed in her eyes. After a long time, she squeezed out a smile from between her teeth.

"Boss, you also said that this is just a rumor. There is no such potion in the world. You have heard too many stories."

Gao Bochuan looked at her back, took a step forward, wanted to reach out and touch her shoulder, but then pulled his hand back.

"Two years ago, the director found me and asked me to secretly investigate the Xia family murder case 20 years ago. Although it has been so long that many things have been covered up, there is one strange thing. In the Xia family's body report, there is one person missing, Xia Qingsong's granddaughter, Xia Ying."

Xia Beibei took another two days of sick leave. When she returned to the police station, Lin Qi told her that Ye Menglan was in the interrogation room, and Gao Bochuan and Shen Yunfei had been in there for half a day and had not come out yet.

Xia Beibei counted the time on her fingers, with a look of doubt on her face:

"I've been gone for two days, why are you still interrogating Ye Menglan? What have you been doing these two days?"

After leaving Gao Bochuan's office that day, she went straight home. Later, she sent Gao Bochuan a text message saying that she wanted to take sick leave. Gao Bochuan rarely made things difficult for her and directly replied with an "OK".

She thought the interrogation of Ye Menglan had ended long ago, but she didn't expect it was still going on. Lin Qi reached out and covered Xia Beibei's mouth, blocking her from blurting out the word "good-for-nothing", and pointed mysteriously to the interrogation room.

"Oh, the boss hasn't come to the police station for two days. He said he was on a business trip. I heard he was in a bad mood. Yang Lin said he had a boxing match with Shen Yunfei last night."

Xia Beibei pushed her hand away, her eyes widened like light bulbs. She wanted to fight Shen Yunfei boxing?

"Fuck, when did the boss become so arrogant? Shen Yunfei's muscles are not for show. He is a boxing champion and the force of the police station. Although the boss is also good in martial arts, can he beat the champion?"

Even though she complained like that, Xia Beibei still looked very interested.

"So who wins? Have you made your bet? Whoever wins has to treat us."

Lin Qi glared at her speechlessly. Before she could say anything, Xia Beibei was grabbed by the collar from behind. Seeing Gao Bochuan's gloomy face, Lin Qi immediately gave Xia Beibei a sympathetic look and then ran away.

Xia Beibei was dragged into the interrogation room by Gao Bochuan. The first time she saw Gao Bochuan and Shen Yunfei, she knew who was the winner and who was the loser.

Shen Yunfei's face was bruised and purple, obviously he was hit from the front. Xia Beibei was about to make fun of him, but Ye Menglan opposite him had already stood up and slammed the table in a mental breakdown.

"I have to say it several times, I didn't kill anyone, I found the bitch's keys from Chen Yong's car, I went to the bitch's house, but she wasn't there when I got there"

"I used a knife to cut her clothes and took away her cosmetics. They should have been given to me by Chen Yong. Why did that bitch get away with it? I would rather throw them away than give them to her."

"I didn't mean to leave the lipstick behind. I received a call. My son got into a fight at school and got hit on the head. It was serious. I rushed to the hospital and didn't take everything because I was in such a hurry. I really didn't kill anyone. That bitch hadn't come back when I left."

Ye Menglan's voice was very excited, sad and full of resentment. Xia Beibei looked at her for a moment and nodded to Gao Bochuan. She heard that Ye Menglan did not lie. She even suspected her husband Chen Yong in her heart, but she did not say it out loud.

This is the difference between Chen Yong and her. Chen Yong has been reminding the police that his wife Ye Menglan is the murderer, but even though Ye Menglan suspects her husband, she says nothing.

Gao Bochuan had Ye Menglan taken away, and then took Xia Beibei back to the office. Gao Bochuan asked her if she was surprised why Ye Menglan was brought here for questioning today. Xia Beibei nodded.

Gao Bochuan asked Xia Beibei to sit on a stool and personally poured her a cup of tea.

"Because I know she's not the murderer"

Xia Beibei stared at him suspiciously, took the tea he handed over, and felt a little flattered. This was the first time her boss had served her, and she was really not used to it.

"So, do you know who the murderer is? Besides Chen Yong and Ye Menglan, does Li Xiaochun have any other enemies?"

Xia Beibei asked him, but Gao Bochuan didn't say anything. He took out a few photos from the drawer and put them on the table and pushed her away. Xia Beibei leaned over to take a look. They were photos of Li Xiaochun and a boy.

Li Xiaochun looked fierce, the boy was crying with his hands covering his face, and there was a photo of the boy lying on a hospital bed.

Xia Beibei didn't understand: "What do you mean?"

Gao Bochuan pointed at the photo and explained that the events in the photo happened half a month ago.

When Li Xiaochun and Chen Yong were having the worst fight, she hooked up with another man in the sales office. The boy in the photo is the man's son.

Because of Li Xiaochun, the boy's parents quarreled every day, so the boy secretly followed his father to find Li Xiaochun.

After his father left, he ran over and begged Li Xiaochun to leave his father, but was pushed down the stairs by Li Xiaochun and is still lying in the hospital.

Xia Beibei still didn't understand the story: "So, you mean, the murderer might be the boy's parents?"

Gao Bochuan shook his head and said nothing for a long time. He just looked at Xia Beibei with complicated eyes. Xia Beibei was terrified by his look. Just as she was about to speak, Gao Bochuan suddenly said:

"The murderer wanted to kill Li Xiaochun because she destroyed two families and hurt the child."

Xia Beibei was stunned for a moment, then suddenly laughed: "So, Boss, what you mean is that the murderer is a hero who upholds justice and eliminates harm for the people, and punishes all social scum?"

Her smile was somewhat ironic, and the more she laughed, the funnier it seemed. Until Gao Bochuan took out a few photos from the drawer and placed them in front of her, she could no longer laugh.

This is……

Staring at the photos on the table, Xia Beibei stood up from the stool almost instantly. The blood in her body froze, her face turned pale, and the hatred in her eyes could no longer be hidden.

sun! This mark of the sun! She will never forget it until she dies!
