Chapter 62: Worse than Beasts

Shedding tears of blood must be due to a great injustice.

Father Xu could only watch helplessly as his daughter shed tears of blood in front of him.

"Are you Xu Youran?"

Bai Youyou's clear voice suddenly rang out. Xu Youran slowly turned around, looked at Master Bai, and nodded.

The fact that she responded to the name proved that she had remembered it.

"How did you become like this?"

Father Xu couldn't accept it. He squatted in front of Xu Youran and asked in tears:

You Ran cried and shook her head, "Dad, I'm so scared, I'm really scared, please come and save me..."

As if she thought of the scene before her death, Xu Youran became a little out of control. She screamed and roared heartbreakingly to dispel the fear in her heart.

Father Xu was at a loss. He looked to Bai Youyou for help. Bai Youyou tapped her forehead with her finger, and she gradually calmed down.

She sat on the ground, crying and saying;

"Uncle Chen thought I was too noisy and locked me in the bathroom. There was so much water, so much water, I could hardly breathe..."

She covered her neck, looking like she was about to suffocate.

"Dad, Dad, I feel so bad, please save me, save me..."

"Mom, don't hit me, I will be good, I won't make you angry, please don't hit me..."

"Dad, I feel dizzy. I drank so much water, but I can't drink any more. The water is covering my nose and I can't get rid of it. Dad..."

She vividly repeated the scene before her death. Seeing her struggling with her hands for a glimmer of hope, Father Xu's heart was broken. He knelt in front of Xu Youran and kept repenting.

"It's all Daddy's fault, it's all Daddy's fault, Daddy shouldn't have let you leave his side..."

"Who is Uncle Chen that the child is talking about?"

Bai Youyou asked, and Xu's father said bitterly, "It's the child's mother's current boyfriend!"

Bai Youyou turned around and looked at Officer Zhou. "The child said that a man named Uncle Chen locked her in the bathroom. The scene she described matches the drowning I saw, so if nothing unexpected happens, Uncle Chen is a major suspect. Of course, whether the child's mother knows about this or not, this depends on you, the police."

Officer Zhou was shocked, this was a clue that came right to his door. Seeing Mr. Xu talking to the air like a madman, he shuddered. He didn't expect that Master Bai was so powerful.

Afterwards, Xu's father wanted to take the wooden sign with Xu Youran's name away, but Bai Youyou refused.

"Her body is missing now, and you can't take her away. Once you find her body and bury her, I will help her reincarnate. Now the most urgent task is to find the murderer and identify the place where the body is hidden!"

Father Xu followed Officer Zhou away in a daze. Bai Youyou stood at the door and watched them leave. Next to her stood a small figure, looking at the car that was leaving reluctantly...

She stroked her head with compassion, "Good girl, when your father helps you find the murderer, I will send you to reincarnation, don't be afraid."

Xu Youran held back her tears and nodded.

She also placed the wooden sign in her study, next to Wang Wei.

As soon as Officer Zhou got back, he reported the incident to his superiors. Since they couldn't resort to ghost or god theory, they decided to start with the child's mother!

As soon as Xu Youran's mother got off the high-speed train, she was secretly taken to the police station by the police who were waiting at the station.

Because Bai Youyou could no longer stay out of this matter, she was also invited to attend the interrogation.

Through the single layer of glass in front of her, she could clearly see a woman with a calm face. It was Xu Youran's biological mother, Lin Li.

Facing Officer Zhou's interrogation, she seemed a little dissatisfied, "Officer, I am a good citizen and was brought to the police station by you for no apparent reason. Shouldn't you give me an explanation?"

Officer Zhou learned that Xu Youran was no longer alive, but the woman in front of him did not look sad at all and even went out for fun. Who would have thought that she had lost her daughter.

"Regarding Xu Youran's disappearance, I hope Ms. Lin can provide more clues. After all, she disappeared from your place."

Hearing this, Lin Li looked angry and slammed the table. "What do you mean? My daughter is missing, but you police officers don't go looking for her. Instead, you come to question me. Are we taxpayers paying money just for you to live a carefree life?"

Officer Zhou usually seems to be a very easy-going and righteous young man, but now, looking at the unreasonable Lin Li, he is suddenly furious.

He pointed at Lin Li and said, "This is the police station. We asked you to come back to cooperate with the investigation. You can't say anything you want!"

When Bai Youyou saw Officer Zhou's expression, she thought that he was really angry. She stared at Lin Li closely. Her face clearly showed what she had done, and seeing what she had done, she clenched her fists.

She called Officer Zhou out, and right there in the corridor, she told him everything she had seen.

"She didn't kill anyone!"

Officer Zhou didn't know what to think when he heard this. Of course, he didn't want a mother to be a murderer, but his indifferent attitude towards her daughter's disappearance also angered him.

But Bai Youyou's next words shocked him.

"She is an accomplice..."

Bai Youyou was a little speechless. Just saying it out loud was heartbreaking. But seeing Officer Zhou looking at her blankly, she still told him what happened...

"She dismembered her own daughter..."

"Bang!!!"

Officer Zhou now hoped that he had heard wrongly. What kind of beast, worse than an animal, could do such a thing?

He really wanted to grab Lin Li right now, but he couldn't pry her mouth open!

He was distressed, and Bai Youyou saw it. Even though it was against the rules, he had to give it a try anyway.

"Why don't I give it a try? Maybe she'll tell me."

Officer Zhou thought that she was also a "non-staff member" and did not think it was inappropriate, so he agreed.

Lin Li saw Officer Zhou, who had been out for a long time, come in with a pretty girl following him, and she looked at him with disdain.

"Why, someone changed?"

Bai Youyou sat opposite Lin Li with an expressionless face. The woman in front of her was less than 30 years old, had a good foundation, and looked quite pretty when she dressed up. Her expression did not show any signs of sadness.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, stared at her intently, and said nothing.

Lin Li felt uneasy being stared at like that and slammed the table.

"Are you crazy? You brought me here and you're just staring at me like that. If you have anything to say, do it now and don't waste my time."

"You know, there's a girl standing next to you..."

Bai Youyou's indifferent voice spoke slowly and leisurely, and it was particularly gloomy in the closed interrogation room.

Lin Li pretended to be calm, "Why, is it still popular in the police station to play tricks? Tell me, you don't want to be police officers anymore, it would be more appropriate for you to become monks and become Taoist priests."

Her arrogant attitude made Officer Zhou frown, and he wanted to beat her up!
