The poor villain I redeemed is a yandere (Part 2) I am pregnant with…
Everyone was stunned and speechless.
One is a suspect in a serial murder case, and the other is a strategist who can induce sleep. When these two confront each other, it is unclear whether to worry about the young master or the pianist.
I wonder what Young Master Chen’s sleep quality is like.
The police rushed to the Chen family's old house overnight.
In order to buy shares, Major General Chen and his brother sold most of the properties under their names. Now, the only property left of the Chen family in first-tier cities is this manor.
It was already late at night when the staff broke into the Chen family's old house. Young Master Chen was still working at his desk. Before he could react, he was knocked to the ground. His face was pressed against the table, and his eyes with dark circles revealed a bit of confusion. He looked a bit pitiful.
"Little brother? Kidnapping?"
"Is there some misunderstanding here?"
Misunderstand?
The fifty-six pairs of eyes staring at the pianist could tell that there was no misunderstanding.
The one who kidnapped the pianist was the young master of the Chen family.
Young Master Chen was also guarded by two policemen.
What's amazing is that he can still remain calm at this time.
He pushed his crooked glasses frame and said worriedly, "My little brother has already fallen asleep, please be gentle and don't scare him."
I found Young Master Chen's bedroom, opened the door, and discovered that the young master was actually sleeping.
The overall tone of his bedroom is warm, as if the young master has strayed into a fairy tale world. The young master lies in a soft big bed, with soft and fair skin, even and long breathing, and a face that is flushed from deep sleep, and he is sleeping soundly.
When he woke up because of the capture, the panic and fear clearly in his eyes made him look like a deer that was forced to a cliff by a predator, so helpless and pitiful that it almost made people soften their hearts.
“Who are you?!”
Unfortunately, no one present would show any mercy to her at this moment.
The sleeping Xiaolu was handcuffed in his pajamas. The Chen brothers were put into the living room, and there were ten people guarding them.
Others began searching for the missing pianist.
In the living room, Young Master Chen had tears in his eyes and wanted to snuggle up to his brother, but the guards would not allow the two brothers a chance to touch.
Young Master Chen said, "There must be some misunderstanding. I am very afraid of crowded places and I hate going out. I have been staying at home tonight and there is no way I would kidnap the pianist."
"Besides, my health has not been very good and I have been taking medicine to recuperate. How could I kidnap a grown man?"
Young Master Chen knew that these were not decisive evidence to exonerate his younger brother, and he tried hard to think of any other alibi.
However, because the young master did not like crowded environments, the Chen family's servants did not live at home and only came to the old house during working hours. At other times, there were only the two brothers in the old house. In fact, because the eldest son Chen was busy with company affairs, most of the time the young master was alone in the old house.
It was already night when the crime happened. It was past dinner time and all the servants had left. After counting carefully, there was not a single person who could prove that Young Master Chen had never left the house.
Young Master Chen's expression was a little solemn, but overall he was still calm.
At this time, the young master whispered, "I, I have an alibi."
There were too many people present for him to count, and the young master's voice was so thin and trembling that one could not detect that he was speaking unless one listened carefully.
As the eyes of the people around him swept over, the young master's voice suddenly became even lower.
"I'm in the studio tonight, I'm painting, there's a video..."
Young Master Chen's eyes lit up and he said, "By the way, when I paint, I like to record the painting process. This should serve as an alibi."
The police officers looked at each other and went to look for tonight's video.
The memory card was quickly brought out, and the computer screen began to play the young master's painting process tonight.
The young master in the picture, wearing loose cartoon pajamas, sits in front of the drawing board, painting with full concentration.
This is a left-side square camera position, from which you can see most of the content on the drawing board at an angle, as well as the profile of the young master.
On the right wall, there is a cat clock.
From 6:30 in the afternoon after dinner until 11:30 in the evening, the young master seemed to be welded to the drawing chair, concentrating on painting.
It was not until the alarm rang that he came back to his senses as if awakened from a dream. He looked at the clock and stood up from his chair.
Chen Dashao explained, "My younger brother is not in good health, and he always forgets the time when he is painting, so I asked him to set an alarm to remind him to wash up and go to bed."
The time inside and outside the screen matches.
After being identified by professionals, it was confirmed that this video was not synthesized but was what happened tonight.
In other words, this video is enough to help the young master escape punishment perfectly.
However, at this moment, the people who went out to search brought the pianist back to the living room.
The moment they saw the pianist, the brothers' pupils dilated instantly.
This small detail was not ignored by the police.
The pianist was covered in dirt, his clothes were in disarray, and there were bruises, whip marks and strangulation marks on his body. He looked extremely pitiful.
As soon as he saw Young Master Chen, his whole body trembled and he accused fiercely, "It's him! He is the one who kidnapped me!!!"
The fear in his voice almost overflowed.
Young Master Chen shrank back and retorted helplessly, "You, you framed me."
The police officer following the pianist said coldly, "We found him in a cellar."
The moment he heard these words, the panic and helplessness on Young Master Chen's face instantly disappeared, and his expression turned cold.
Apparently, there was decisive evidence in the cellar to convict him.
At this moment, all the police officers around tensed up and looked at Young Master Chen.
All his previous weakness was gone, replaced by a terrifying murderous intent like that of a ferocious beast.
He stared at the pianist without blinking.
It is hard to imagine that such a surge of murderous intent could come from a boy who looks so harmless.
The team leader whispered, "Has victim number ten been found?"
Number 10 is the missing executive.
The investigator shook his head solemnly.
Now, Young Master Chen can only be charged with kidnapping, but the murderer of the executive's disappearance and the Chen family serial murders has not yet been found.
Without evidence, there can be no conviction.
It's even impossible to merge the cases.
There is no need to say much about the disappearance of senior executives.
It can be basically determined that the murderer of victims No. 8 and No. 9 is the same person.
However, the way victims No. 1 to 7 died was different from that of No. □□.
Young Master Chen had very sensitive ears. His gaze finally left the pianist and turned through the crowd to look accurately at the leading captain.
"Officer, I have important clues to provide."
When he opened his mouth, everyone was shocked.
At this time, Young Master Chen's tone and accent were completely different from his previous timid and soft tone.
His tone was lazy, with an upward note at the end, like a small hook. There was nothing wrong with what he said, but his tone sounded like he was flirting.
The leading captain said coldly, "Speak properly."
He laughed. "I'm just talking, officer."
Looking at the expression of Young Master Chen, he didn't look shocked. It seems that this is the real Young Master Chen.
The young master raised his delicate chin towards the pianist and said, "I admit that I kidnapped him, but I was bewitched."
The pianist was stunned for a moment, then angrily asked, "Can I force you to kidnap me?"
The young master smiled and said, "That's hard to say."
"Officer, I suspect he has learned some hypnosis techniques, or practiced some martial arts related to music. When he met me, he hummed a little tune, and I lost consciousness. When I woke up, I was at home."
The captain couldn't help but look at the deputy captain.
Matters concerning the pianist are confidential. Outsiders only know that the pianist's piano playing can make people fall asleep, but the young master says that his piano playing can make people lose consciousness.
This is consistent with the institute's suspicions.
The institute suspected that being able to put people to sleep through piano music was only part of his ability; his real ability was controlling sound.
The pianist angrily said, "I didn't even know you before, why did you manipulate you to kidnap me? I have no motive at all! But I know your motive!"
"It was you who tied me up here. Before you tortured me, tell me, tell me..." The pianist bit his lower lip, a trace of shame and anger on his face, "Tell me, why did the president look at me differently but rejected you many times?"
…
That's when I arrived.
As soon as I entered the door, everyone in the living room looked at me with complicated expressions.
Even though I am used to walking under the public's gaze, I still find it a little overwhelmed at this moment.
Because of the special situation of the pianist, I watched the live broadcast through the link sent to me by the team leader along the way. I didn’t expect that as soon as I entered the door, the pianist made a big move and made the matter happen to me.
The team leader looked at me, with three parts of pity, three parts of helplessness, three parts of seriousness and one part of amusement in his eyes, and asked, "President, is what he said true?"
I pinched my brows and said, "...I guess so."
"Young Master Chen did express his affection for me, but I didn't look at the pianist differently. He is the sweetheart of my partner and an artist of my company. The attention he received is just within the normal range."
After saying this, the faces of the young master and the pianist turned pale.
The young master blurted out in disbelief, "He's not the 'lover' you mentioned?"
Me, “…of course not.”
"My love, of course you can only call me your lover after you have established a relationship. You were hiding in the dark when I was talking to the pianist. You should have heard the whole conversation. How could you misunderstand?"
We were talking at an arm's length, with no physical contact, and our tones were awkward and polite. How on earth did he misunderstand?
As soon as the young master said this, his motive was basically confirmed.
Young Master Chen, who had remained calm all the time, turned faceless. He wanted his younger brother to shut up, but the staff who were watching over him were not easy to deal with.
He could only continue to sit on the sofa with a dark face, and he and Young Master Chen, who had a pale face, were pinned on either side of the sofa. At first glance, they looked like the Black and White Devils.
Young Master Chen didn't pay attention to his brother's expression, but just murmured, "I thought you were pursuing him, but because of President Mu, it was difficult to say it out loud, so you called him your lover..."
What a strange train of thought.
He looked straight at me, "Who is your lover then?"
When he mentioned that, I remembered my assistant who I hadn’t planned to come out to me yet, and I started to feel a little worse.
"It's none of your business."
Hearing this, regret showed on his face. I don’t know whether he regretted catching the pianist on impulse and exposing himself in vain, or regretted not catching my true lover.
But then he looked up again and said, "I admit that I lied. I did tie him up and took him home, but what I said afterwards was true."
He looked at the investigators who had found the pianist, "You found him in the cellar, so you should have checked the cellar, right?"
He smiled, and his smile was inexplicably frightening.
"The cellar can only be opened from the outside. There are two layers of soundproofing outside. Outside is the garden. It's summer now and the flowers in the garden are in bloom. Fertilizer was applied tonight. The smell is heavy and complex. No matter whether it's a person or a search dog, it's impossible to find him in such a short time."
"So, when you found him, the cellar door should not have been locked? Or did he run to Waiman to seek help on his own?"
I glanced at the leader.
The leader gestured.
I understand.
The cellar door was unlocked.
The young master continued, "No matter what the situation is, do you think I would make such a low-level mistake as forgetting to lock the door now that I have brought the person back?"
He sneered and looked at me. "I am indeed jealous of him. At that time, I thought he was the lover that the president mentioned. After a closer look, he is just that. Why can he do it but I can't?"
He seemed to be explaining the psychology behind the crime, but also seemed to be questioning me.
I didn't answer, and he looked away again, with a mocking look on his face. I didn't know if he was directed at myself or someone else.
“…So I brought him back.”
"I want to see what it is about him that makes the president remember him so much."
"I whipped him a few times, and I don't remember anything that happened afterwards. When I woke up again, I found myself lying on the bed."
"His piano music can make people fall asleep - you should have noticed it a long time ago, right? There is always someone following him secretly, right? Otherwise, you wouldn't have discovered that he was kidnapped so quickly. It was me who did it."
"Sleep-inducing music has been around for a long time, but none of them is so effective, abnormally so. Since he can make people fall asleep through the sound of the piano, then he can hypnotize people through singing - that's also possible, right? You should be able to think of this, otherwise you wouldn't send so many people to look after him."
He smiled, but there was no smile in his eyes, "So, I was indeed wrong about this matter, I admit it. But I suspect that I was hypnotized by him unintentionally."
"Whether it was kidnapping or falling asleep, it was not my intention. I am just a victim."
I didn't expect that he could make it up.
Looking at the young master who was acting like a victim, the pianist's face turned red with anger. He pointed at the young master and kept calling him "you" for a long time, but he couldn't figure out what he meant.
After a while, he barely regained his ability to speak and angrily said, "I hypnotized you and kidnapped myself? Am I sick?! I'm not a masochist!"
"So what if the cellar door is not closed? How should I know what you, a pervert, are thinking?! Maybe you left it open on purpose, waiting for me to escape and then take advantage of me."
"The motive for committing the crime was to attract the president's attention!"
Why are you involving me again?
A young investigator couldn't help but say, "What's the point of attracting this kind of attention? It will only make the president's impression of him worse..."
The pianist puffed up his cheeks and muttered, "Maybe this pervert thinks that this will let the president know how much he loves the president, and he is even willing to break the law for the president."
The deputy captain couldn't help but cough lightly and said, "Illegal behavior cannot be used to express love. It's immoral."
Is this a question of morality or immorality?
I rubbed my brows with a headache.
If I let them continue talking like that, my reputation will be damaged and I will do something immoral.
But at this moment, Young Master Chen suddenly spoke. His voice was calm and composed. He did not sound like an arrested suspect defending himself and his brother, but rather like he was listing his bargaining chips at the negotiating table.
"In fact, the pianist has already stated his motive for committing the crime - to attract the president's attention."
"As far as I know, the pianist came from an orphanage. Because of his talent for piano, he was sponsored by kind-hearted people and enrolled in a music college. After graduating from college, he started looking for a job. The first job he found was as a pianist in a bar owned by the CEO's friend."
"You clearly said that your wish is to play the piano in front of the public. With your piano talent and special ability to induce sleep, you definitely have a place in the entertainment industry. Why would you willingly work as a pianist in a bar?"
“This is the first suspicious point.”
"Unfortunately, you failed the bar's assessment and lost your job. Your special abilities were noticed by Mr. Mu, and you became his personal pianist."
"Boss Mu has a crush on you. In order to help you succeed, he even let you play at his birthday party, so you were able to meet the president."
"But you turned to show your goodwill to Mr. Duan. The two CEOs competed to please you. After Mr. Duan proposed to bring you into the entertainment industry, Mr. Mu had no choice but to approach the CEO."
"After all, the Duan family owns the second largest company in the entire entertainment industry, the largest being Huanxing Entertainment."
"In Mr. Mu's mind, you entering the Duan family is like throwing meat buns at a dog. In order to prevent you from being taken away by Mr. Duan, Mr. Mu allowed you to join Huanxing Entertainment."
"There are so many people who are trying to please you, why did you choose to challenge President Duan and President Mu?"
“This is the second suspicious point.”
Without waiting for the pianist to retort, Young Master Chen raised his left hand, which was handcuffed and held by the intelligent computer, and signaled the police officer to unlock it.
In the secret folder, the police found the entire scene of the pianist's ambiguous words to Mr. Duan, as well as photos full of suggestive actions.
No wonder Mr. Duan, who is always smooth, would fall out with Mr. Mu to compete for the person. It turns out that it is not only because of insomnia, but also because Mr. Duan thinks he has a chance to get the pianist and win his heart.
A pianist is like a gold mine. If you can get 100% ownership of it, who would be willing to only be able to look at it from afar at a time with the permission of the gold mine owner?
The benefits he brought were enough for the two people who never saw each other to break up.
"Last time, I saw you meeting with the president privately. You tried to get closer to the president. I saw the whole process."
"This is the third suspicious point."
"These doubts are enough to prove that you are here for the president. Your original target was the president."
Regardless of whether or not he is the target, for Young Master Chen, the target can only be me.
This will prove that the pianist is not innocent.
Thus, the two brothers were exonerated.
However, the eldest son of the Chen family is indeed capable and he did guess correctly.
The pianist really came for me.
The voices of the pianist and the eldest son of the Chen family rang in my ears at the same time.
【Nonsense! Absolutely nonsense! 】
[It was only after I met Mr. Mu and attended his concert that I realized that there were people who liked my piano music.]
[I joined the bar because the money was high and I could play in front of people, which was my dream come true.]
[As for the so-called evidence of Mr. Duan, it is even more out of context and borrowed! ]
[I just wanted to thank the president for helping me, how come I have bad intentions! ]
The pianist explained angrily, but he didn't know that his explanations, one by one, sounded a bit deliberate to me.
How could the explanation of the mental activities of a person who was so angry that he couldn't even speak clearly just now be so clear and organized?
The eldest son of the Chen family paused for a few seconds to give everyone time to digest the situation, and then continued, "I suspect that he is playing a trick on me and deliberately hypnotizing me to kidnap him so that the president will focus his attention on him."
"After all, he is a newly signed potential stock, and also a benefactor who has scheduled a meeting time. If something happens, people will always pay more attention to him."
Young Master Chen chuckled, "Look, the president is here! He even came all the way here late at night."
