Chapter 565 I just wanted to help her
Police drained the septic tank in the rental apartment complex, but due to the long passage of time, the human tissue had already decomposed. Fortunately, they found some bone fragments and teeth. After DNA comparison, it was confirmed that Xiaoxiao had been murdered.
The police immediately notified Xiaoxiao's family.
Xiao Xiao's mother always believed that Xiao Xiao had been abducted. She inquired everywhere and ran around trying to find out more, hoping that one day she could see Xiao Xiao again.
However, she received a call from the police informing her that Xiaoxiao had been murdered.
Moreover, he was dismembered, leaving no complete corpse.
Xiao Xiao's mother fainted on the spot.
When Li Man arrived at the hospital, she saw Xiao Xiao's mother lying alone on the hospital bed. She was extremely thin and looked haggard, with empty, lifeless eyes staring at the ceiling.
Walking to the bedside, placing the fruit she had brought on the bedside table, Riemann softly called out, "Auntie."
The person on the hospital bed did not react at all. She was motionless, her eyes were empty and lifeless, and an aura of despair and hopelessness enveloped her.
Li Man felt her eyes stinging terribly, and she said softly, "Auntie, I'm Xiao Xiao's friend."
Upon hearing Xiaoxiao's name, the person on the hospital bed moved their eyes, and their gaze finally focused on Li Man. "Who are you?"
“I’m Xiaoxiao’s friend,” Li Man quickly said.
"Xiao Xiao's friend... Xiao Xiao... my Xiao Xiao... you died so tragically... I wish I could have gone with you..."
As she spoke, Xiaoxiao's mother suddenly burst into tears.
Riemann's tears also fell.
Xiao Xiao's mother cried for a long time. After she calmed down, she asked in a hoarse voice, "What do you want from me?"
“Auntie, Xiaoxiao deposited some money with me before she passed away. Now that she’s gone, I’ll give you all her money.”
Riemann was afraid that if he gave her the money directly, she would refuse to accept it, so he made up this excuse.
However, Xiaoxiao's mother is not so easily fooled.
She stared at Riemann. "Who exactly are you?"
“I am Xiaoxiao’s friend,” Li Man said.
Xiao Xiao's mother looked Li Man up and down and shook her head. "Xiao Xiao would never deposit money with you. If she had money, she would have taken it home to treat her father's illness long ago. She would never deposit it with you."
No one knows a daughter better than her mother.
Knowing she couldn't hide it from her, Riemann had no choice but to tell the truth: "She really didn't deposit any money with me. I just wanted to help her. She... is so pitiful."
Xiao Xiao's mother's eyes reddened again. "Xiao Xiao is a good child, she's always been obedient, it's just...it's just..."
As she spoke, she burst into tears again: "Why did this happen... Why did you do this to her... Why... You heartless bastard... Why did you do this to Xiaoxiao..."
Li Man felt a tightness in her chest, as if she had cotton stuck in her throat. She didn't know how to comfort Xiao Xiao's mother, so she could only cry along with her.
When she arrived, she already knew that Xiaoxiao's father had passed away not long after Xiaoxiao disappeared.
Now only Xiaoxiao's mother is left.
She took out a bank card and handed it to Xiaoxiao's mother, "Auntie, here's 500,000 yuan, please keep it safe."
"No, I don't want it, child, take it back quickly."
Xiao Xiao's mother quickly shoved the card back into Li Man's hands, tears streaming down her face: "What use is money to me now? Xiao Xiao's father is gone, what use is money to me now!"
