That is...
Zhichen's eyes suddenly widened, and his heart seemed to skip a beat. He stared at the ring he wanted to give to Zhu Ling, motionless.
Even though he had guessed that the person lying on the stretcher might be Zhu Ling, he still didn't want to believe it.
"No, this is impossible..." He shook his head gently, constantly convincing himself that although the ring was the same as the one he wanted to give to Zhu Ling, he had thrown it away at the hotel a long time ago. Zhu Ling had no idea it existed. If she didn't know about it, how could she possibly wear it on her hand?!
It's a coincidence, it must be a coincidence. Zhu Ling loves him so much, how could she bear to leave alone?
The staff nearby noticed that Zhichen was acting strangely and asked him what was wrong. However, Zhichen did not hear the staff's concern at all. At this moment, his focus was on the stretcher carried by the police.
Just as the police were about to load the stretcher onto the car, he suddenly seemed to understand something and rushed through the cordon like crazy...
No one expected Zhichen to do this and they all stood there in a daze.
Even the police were stunned.
Zhichen rushed to the stretcher and held the hand with the ring tightly. Although the flesh on the hand was a little rotten, the touch was still so familiar.
The police saw Zhichen rushing in front of them, and one of them shouted angrily: "Who are you doing? How dare you interfere with our investigation? Come, drag him out."
The next second, Zhichen was held up by two policemen.
Zhichen struggled hard, but his fists were no match for the four legs. In the end, he could only watch helplessly as the police carried the stretcher into the police car.
"Ling'er, Ling'er..." Zhichen finally couldn't help but broke down and cried.
When the other members of the team heard Zhichen calling out for Ling'er so heartbreakingly, they all speculated about who this Ling'er was?!
Since his debut, Zhichen has never had any scandals with any female stars. The only one he had a scandal with was Zhu Ling.
Could it be that... the Ling'er that Zhichen just mentioned is Zhu Ling?
So, they haven't seen Zhu Ling since she was hidden away...
Seeing Zhichen so sad, the director couldn't bear it and came forward to comfort him. But Zhichen was in no mood to listen to the director at this time. He stared at the police car with bloodshot eyes, then quickly took out a spare car key from the director's pocket and ran to the car like crazy.
Seeing this, the director said anxiously: "Zhichen, if you drive away, what will happen to all of us?"
Seeing this, others also wanted to step forward to stop him, but Zhichen was like a wolf with bloodthirsty eyes and would not listen to anyone.
In the end, Zhichen drove the car away.
He followed the police to the morgue in his car, and only sneaked in after the police left.
He didn't know where the police had put Zhu Ling's body, so he started looking for it one by one. After he had looked for seven or eight bodies, he finally saw the familiar ring again on the ninth body.
Although he had not seen her face yet, the feeling the corpse gave her and the ring on her hand reminded him all the time that the corpse was Zhu Ling.
He knelt directly on the ground, turned his head stiffly and looked at the head of the corpse. In an instant, tears fell like rain, and even his hands were shaking when he tried to lift the white cloth.
He didn't want to see it, but he didn't dare not to see it, and he had to see it!
It was obviously a simple task, but it was extremely difficult for Zhichen at this moment. He didn't know how much effort he had put in to lift the white cloth covering his head. Through his moist eyes, he could clearly see that the face belonged to Zhu Ling.
Although her face was a little rotten, Zhichen knew her facial contours better than anyone else.
At this moment, his only hope was shattered.
He knelt on the ground, crying inconsolably, and even lost the energy to blame her!
Could it be... was this the punishment Zhu Ling gave him? Punishment for ignoring her?
But...this punishment is too cruel.
Zhichen knelt in front of Zhu Ling and cried for a long time. His voice became hoarse, his tears dried up, and it seemed as if all his energy and spirit had been drained away.
He held Zhu Ling's hand weakly, staring blankly at the ring on her hand. He asked in a hoarse voice, "I remember I threw this ring away at the hotel. How did it end up on you?"
"When did you put it on? Why didn't you tell me?"
"If you had said it, I would definitely not ignore you!"
"Even if you are not innocent, I am willing to have you."
"because I love you!"
"I love you, I love you, I love you!"
As Zhichen spoke, he placed Zhu Ling's rotten hand to his lips and kept saying, "I'm sorry, Ling'er, this time, I was wrong. Please don't punish me like this, okay?"
"As long as you get better, I'm willing to give up everything for you!"
No matter how hoarsely Zhichen spoke to her, Zhu Ling did not respond at all.
In the end, Zhichen was exhausted and fainted beside Zhu Ling's bed.
Zhichen didn't know how long he slept. He only knew that he was awakened by a stern voice: "Why is it him again? Throw him out quickly and don't interfere with our investigation."
The person who spoke was the policeman from yesterday.
Before Zhichen could react, he was taken away again. As the police dragged him out, he shouted, "Comrade police, you must give Zhu Ling justice."
As soon as he finished speaking, he was thrown out of the morgue.
He didn't leave in a hurry, but waited at the door for the police to come out.
Half an hour later, the police came out with the forensic doctor.
Zhichen asked excitedly: "Comrade police, how did Zhu Ling die?"
The police looked at Zhichen with a cautious and scrutinizing look on his face.
Zhichen continued, "I'm Zhu Ling's boyfriend. I must know how she died. Tell me?"
"Boyfriend?" The policeman seemed thoughtful. "Since he's your boyfriend, please come with us."
Zhichen understood what the police meant. He neither resisted nor refused, but followed the police obediently.
The police asked Zhichen about his activities and locations five days ago. He answered them fluently, and the police also confirmed that Zhichen was not lying and he did have an alibi.
The police had no choice but to let Zhichen go, but Zhichen had no intention of leaving at all.
He sat on the interrogation chair and asked seriously, "I have cooperated with you. Now you can tell me how Zhu Ling died, right?"
The two policemen exchanged a glance, and then one of them said, "We can only tell you that the deceased died in a car accident. His body suffered multiple fractures and his liver was severely impacted."
"We won't say anything else!"
"Now, can you go?"
