Police station, interrogation room.
Shi Xi sat obediently in the chair, her lips curving upwards at a 45-degree angle, a perfectly natural smile.
The person interrogating Shi Xi was not Li Lei, but Li Lei's superior, Qin Yu, the eldest son of the Qin family and Shi Xi's cousin.
He spends most of his time on missions away from home, so his skin is wheat-colored, and he bears a resemblance to his uncle.
As soon as Shi Xi arrived at the Public Security Bureau, she was taken over by Qin Yu.
Qin Yu also unlocked the metal handcuffs.
He looked up from the document, placed his hands on the table, and asked, "Shi Xi, the surveillance video shows that you put something in the water you gave Hua Ru. What kind of thing did you put in it?"
"It's a laxative," Shi Xi replied obediently as always.
Do you know how Hua Ru died?
Shi Xi shook her head, indicating that she did not know.
Qin Yu slowly began, "Hua Ru died the night before last. There were no wounds on her body, and she didn't struggle before she died. She died peacefully. The cause of death cannot be found, but..."
Shi Xi added, "But I drugged her, which is very suspicious, isn't it?"
Qin Yu nodded, picked up the tea on the table, took a sip, and said with a headache, "Hua Ru only had conflicts with you before she died, and there is video evidence that you gave her water that was spiked. Nobody knows what you put in it, so you are highly suspicious."
"So, I'm really a prime suspect. The timing matches, we had a conflict, and there's evidence that I drugged her. Tsk, this is a bit tricky," Shi Xi said, resting her chin on her hands and puffing out her cheeks.
"Oh, right, here's some laxative." Shi Xi took out some laxative from her pocket and handed it to Qin Yu.
"I put a quarter of the amount into the mineral water for Huaru, and this is the remaining three-quarters."
After using the medicine last time, she wrapped the remaining laxative in paper and casually put it in her pocket.
Coincidentally, the coat she wore the day before yesterday was the same one she wore today, and the laxative was in Shi Xi's coat pocket.
Qin Yu picked up the laxative and handed it to the person next to her, saying, "Take this to get checked out."
Just then, a policeman knocked on the door and came in, saying, "Ms. Shi, your lawyer has arrived."
Then a middle-aged man in a business suit appeared, sweating profusely and panting, and said, "Miss Shi, I am Qian Duoduo, the personal lawyer of the Di Group. Master Chen will be back soon, so please don't be afraid."
The police officer following behind looked stunned. Lawyer Qian Duoduo was a legend in the legal world; since entering the profession, he had never failed a case.
Shi Xi stood up and nodded. "Thank you, Attorney Qian. I'll have to trouble you with this case."
"It's my honor to be able to help you." People in the company are saying that Miss Shi will be their boss's wife.
Moreover, judging from how much Mr. Chen cares about Miss Shi, he is 100% certain that Miss Shi will become their boss's wife.
Since joining the Di Group, he has never answered a call from Master Chen. All company matters are handled by Di Lu and Di Qi.
This time, Master Chen anxiously ordered him to rush to the police station, where the young lady was being treated as a defense lawyer.
No sooner had Qian Duoduo finished speaking than Di Chenxiao appeared in the interrogation room.
Di Chenxiao checked Shi Xi from head to toe to see if she was injured, his eyes lingering on Shi Xi's red wrist.
Shi Xi felt uncomfortable under Di Chenxiao's gaze and explained, "This is because I was handcuffed. My skin is too fair, and the handcuffs are too stiff. So..."
Di Chenxiao's eyes turned even colder as he struggled to suppress his anger and asked, "Who put these handcuffs on you?"
