Becoming a Suspect (Part 2)
In the interrogation room, Yue Lanxiu sat down opposite Zhao Rirou.
"Even you think I was the one who poisoned you?" Asahirou said wearily. It was such a bad luck! Although I could be reborn after every death, rebirth was only to continue suffering!
"I believe it wasn't you!" Yue Lanxiu originally wanted to hear her say it herself, but now that she didn't say it, he knew it couldn't be her!
Asahiro looked up at him, and the pain in his eyes made her chest warm. "Thank you! But you shouldn't be so emotional!" Others would definitely say that to him!
"I'm not being emotional. The Asahirou I know is brave and honest. If she wanted to kill someone, she wouldn't use such troublesome means! She wouldn't cause trouble for her friends! What's more, I know that she has reformed and will not kill anyone again!" Yue Lanxiu said with conviction.
His words brought tears to her eyes.
"Yes! I didn't poison you!" she clarified, her whole body seemed to have regained strength, "But I don't know who poisoned you!"
"Excluding outsiders, the murderer is among you! Think carefully about who was wrong at that time?"
"How is that possible?" Zhao Rirou's face was filled with disapproval, an expression that absolutely did not seem possible. "Why should we exclude outsiders? It's unlikely that Guan Shaoling and Yue Lanjing would murder their own brothers. Even if they did, they would do it behind closed doors! Youya and Xiangxiang don't seem like the kind of people who would kill!"
"You're the one acting on your emotions right now!" Yue Lanxiu warned her sternly, "We need to analyze everyone rationally. You can't treat them as friends right now; you have to treat them as suspects!"
Asahirou stared at him for a moment and said in disbelief, "Why do you think Youya would kill someone? She's the last person here who would kill someone!"
"Investigating a case cannot be subjective!"
"But you still believe me based on your own subjective judgment!"
"So you are the only one who can influence my sanity!" This ended the confrontation between the two.
"Think carefully about it. Is there anything that you find unusual?"
"If we talk about unusual things, a lot did happen that night," Zhao Rirou recalled. "Youya actually crashed Yue Lanjing and the others' car, invited them to dinner, and even shared her treasured wine with them! But all these things happened within reason! She crashed into them because her old driving headache came back, and because she was kind, uneasy, and full of apologies, she invited them to dinner and share wine together!"
Yue Lanxiu listened seriously, his eyes filled with thought. "You were the only one who didn't drink that night?"
"And Youya, she said the reason for the car accident was a headache, so Xiangxiang snatched her wine glass and stopped her from drinking. I don't know if she drank it later."
"Thyme touched her glass. Do you know whose glass she touched?"
"Except for her own, it was elegant. That's all I saw. Didn't I leave after that? So I have no idea." Zhao Rirou wanted to ask if there was anything wrong, but Yue Lanxiu asked her first, "Who took the wine glasses? Or, how did they come into contact with those wine glasses?"
"I remember that the wine glasses were elegantly washed and brought over, and she poured the wine and handed it to everyone."
"That is to say, she has touched everyone's cup and left fingerprints on everyone's cup!" This can explain why her fingerprints were on Yue Lanjing and Guan Shaoling's wine glasses. As for her own and Thyme's wine glasses, they were washed clean by Thyme before the incident, so there is no way to verify it, but the focus is still on Guan Shaoling's cup!
"It should be." Seeing that he was concentrating on his thoughts, she couldn't help but not disturb him no matter how many questions she had.
She looked at him quietly. With him around, even the heaviest mood would become light.
Suddenly, he asked again to confirm, "Think about it carefully. Thyme really only touched Zhuang Youya's cup. Has she touched anyone else's?"
"No, I'm pretty sure I didn't see it! She doesn't look like the type to pour drinks for others, so why do you care about such things?"
"Because it's strange that there are her fingerprints on Guan Shaoling's wine glass! There are two sets of them, which means that she picked up the wine glass twice to pass the level!" On the contrary, Guan Shaoling's fingerprints only have one set, which is really strange. Yue Lanxiu is very puzzled.
"What does this prove? Even if she touched it later, it doesn't mean anything! Are you doubting her?" Zhao Rirou thought it was too outrageous and immediately offered her own opinion, "The poison doesn't have to touch the cup! Just throw the poison in! So there doesn't have to be the murderer's fingerprints on the cup!"
"You're right!"
Asahirou was still defending Thyme, "I think the reason Guan Shaoling's cup had her fingerprints on it was probably because she picked it up after the incident to see if there was anything unusual in it."
"She did answer that way herself. Not only did she pick it up and look at it, but Yue Lanjing also picked it up and looked at it. It was a subconscious action. If someone drinks the wine in the glass and dies, people will subconsciously pick up the glass to look at it."
"Yeah, so why are you harping on this?"
"But she said she only picked it up once! And according to the confessions of Guan Shaoling and Yue Lanjing, they clearly stated that after the incident, they had been sitting next to the poisoned wine glass and had never seen anyone pick it up again!"
Asahirou was also confused, so she paused for a moment before saying, "Maybe Xiangxiang remembered it wrong!" She was obviously not confident.
Yue Lanxiu didn't say anything, but his expression clearly said it was impossible!
"Anyway, it couldn't be her who poisoned me! Maybe," she paused, and thought of the bottle of medicine she found in Thyme's room. After thinking about it, she decided not to tell Yue Lanxiu for the time being. She wanted to ask Xiangxiang in person first! "Maybe she is hiding something else from me, but I believe she would never frame me!"
Yue Lanxiu nodded, not wanting to upset her. He stopped talking, leaving it at that. She would know sooner or later, so it was necessary to give her a heads-up.
As for Thyme, he had long felt that she was hiding a secret, but he could never find any concrete evidence. In addition, she had indeed been helping them sincerely and had no intention of harming them, so he chose to turn a blind eye!
But if this incident is really related to her, he will definitely hold her by the tail!
Seeing her worried look, Yue Lanxiu couldn't help but hold her hand. "There are still many doubts in this case, and nothing can be confirmed yet. Don't think about it, just leave it to me. I'm going to go to Yue Lanjing and ask her about the situation in detail. You should have a good rest, I'll be back soon!"
The word "come back" made Asahiro's sad face disappear. Although it was a prison cell, with him back, it felt like home and became warm in an instant!
The same goes for Yue Lanxiu. Wherever she is, even the prison cell feels like home and makes people nostalgic for it.
Yue Lanzheng was just about to go look for Yue Lanjing, but he didn't expect that she had been waiting for him in Xu Rongxuan's office at the police station for a long time.
Xu Rongxuan went out to investigate a case, so there were only the two of them in the office.
"I hope she's okay. How is she now?" Yue Lanjing's first words were about Chao Rirou. It was obvious that he came here because he was worried about Chao Rirou.
"It seems you also think she wasn't the one who poisoned her!"
"If she wants to kill us, she has plenty of ways to do it. Why would she need to use this method that would put herself in jail? It's obvious that someone wants to frame her. Killing is not the main purpose, putting her in jail is the main goal!" Yue Lanjing analyzed incisively.
Yue Lanxiu nodded, their views largely aligned. "Who do you think is most likely?"
"I think it must be someone who broke in unnoticed and poisoned us. He led all of us to the door first, and then went into the house to poison us!" A long-lost look of fear and difficulty appeared in Yue Lanjing's eyes, but after all, she was someone who had experienced many storms, so the look disappeared in a flash.
"But the surveillance footage did not capture any outsiders intruding."
"If that outsider is Yan Mingchi, it's no surprise that we can't photograph him! Even if we did, we definitely wouldn't recognize him! I suspect he might have already sneaked in, but we just didn't notice!"
"Do you suspect Yan Mingchi has returned from the dead to seek revenge?!"
"Before Canyue died, she told me that someone was following her. Although she hadn't even seen a strand of the other person's hair, that oppressive feeling was Yan Mingchi! And I suspect that Xiaorou and Canyue falling off the cliff was related to Yan Mingchi!" Yue Lanjing still felt a lingering fear when she thought of that incident.
"If it really is Yan Mingchi, this must be just the beginning!" Yue Lanxiu frowned and said, and both of them shuddered uncontrollably.
"There are a few more things I want to ask you, and they're crucial. Please recall carefully: when Zhuang Youya exclaimed that there were people outside, did the four of you run out together? Or was there a sequence?"
When he realized why he asked this, Yue Lanjing raised his handsome eyebrows in surprise, then he recalled seriously, "Seeing Zhuang Youya looking at the door in horror, Shao Ling and I stood up and walked towards the door at the same time, and Zhuang Youya followed closely behind us. She even grabbed my arm because she was scared." He wanted to brush it off at that time, so he was sure that the three of them almost walked out the door together, "As for Thyme... I can only be sure that she was walking behind us! Why do you suspect them?" This surprised Yue Lanjing.
"I just don't want to miss any possibility!" The three of them walked out, their attention all focused on the outside. No one would notice what Thyme, who was following behind them, was going to do to Guan Shaoling's wine glass.
But if that were the case, there would have to be someone outside cooperating with her! This was something Yue Lanxiu hadn't figured out yet!
"Also, there are your fingerprints on the wine glass. You said you picked it up and looked at it after the incident. What did you want to look at? Did you suspect there was poison in the wine before the police arrived?"
"When Thyme announced that Eleven had died of poisoning, my mind went blank. I couldn't understand how someone so perfectly healthy could have been poisoned. I saw Thyme's gaze fixed on the wine glass Eleven had drunk from, and I instinctively picked it up to take a look. I thought, Eleven had already drunk the wine, and since there were no bowls or chopsticks and the food hadn't been touched, could there be something wrong with the wine? Then I thought, how could that be possible? If there was something wrong with the wine, how could those who drank before him still be standing?"
“Who else has picked it up and looked at it?”
Yue Lanjing had an uncertain expression on her face. "Shao Ling and I were sitting next to that wine glass after the incident, but I walked away for a while. I was worried about Xiao Rou, so I went to look for her with Thyme. After confirming that she was okay, we returned to the scene together. I sat back in my original position to think about things, staring casually at the object in front of me, that is, the poisoned wine glass, and kept staring at it until the police took it away. So what I can be sure of is that no one picked it up while I was sitting there! As for the time I was away, you can ask Shao Ling, he should have been sitting there the whole time!"
Yue Lanxiu had asked about this from the beginning, and just as Yue Lanjing had said, Guan Shaoling had been sitting next to the poisoned wine glass until the police showed up. As far as he could remember, he hadn't seen anyone touch the glass!
So Yue Lanxiu was basically certain that Thyme hadn't touched the glass of wine, so why were there two sets of her fingerprints on the glass? When were they applied to each?
In order to find out the truth, Yue Lanxiu found a few police officers and cooperated with Yue Lanjing to replay the events of that night. Even some unimportant details could not be omitted!
Yue Lanjing had an amazing memory. She didn't miss even the insignificant little thing like Zhuang Youya took out two bottles of wine, one of which was leftover and she poured it all out to herself, and the other was a new bottle, which she poured out to them.
After Yue Lanjing left, Yue Lanxiu immediately went to the forensic department and discovered new suspicious points...
Forty-eight hours seems like a long time to some people, but it also goes by very quickly to some people, such as Asahi Rou and Yue Lanxiu. Although they are in a detention room, with each other by their side, hell can become heaven!
Because there was no further evidence to prove that Asahirou poisoned her, the police had to release her after the detention period. However, Asahirou was still the biggest suspect, and her every move was still under the control of the police.
Looking at her leaving with Hua Chuyu without looking back, Yue Lanxiu had no choice but to let go even though he was reluctant. He also gave his blessing, wishing her and Yue Lanjing and their family of three happiness!
She knew without asking that the baby in her belly was Yue Lanjing's!
Asahirou felt like there was a hole in her heart. The further she was away from him, the bigger that hole became! There was nothing that could fill it, only endless sadness and loneliness!
He has Youya by his side, and she doesn't want to destroy their relationship; besides, she is pregnant; most importantly, the fact that Chao Rirou is Yan Mingchi's apprentice has been spread in the police circle by someone, so with her current identity, she will only implicate him!
Since there are so many reasons why we can't be together, there is no need to look back!
Yue Lanjing went to Luosha's study to find him. When she reached the door, several of his fellow apprentice brothers just came out. They all looked furious, and their eyes were sharper than a knife!
When she saw him, she greeted him and left. She was much colder and more distant than before, and it was obvious that she had some grievances against him.
Walking into the study, the air was still thick with murderous intent and the flames of revenge! Without asking, I knew what they had just discussed.
"Are you planning how to kill Chao Rirou?" Yue Lanjing stood there, looking intimidating without being angry, and also quite melancholy.
Luosha's gaze visibly averted before he spoke, "We're just discussing how to find the murderer and how to tear him into pieces! To avenge your junior brother!"
"She's not the murderer! How many times do I have to tell you to believe me? You'd better not touch her. If you do, you'll be going against Hua Chuyu and Li Kexiao!" You'll also be going against him! Yue Lanjing's brows revealed a helpless and exhausted expression.
"It's not just them. You will also fight with us and kill each other for that woman!" Luosha said sadly. He didn't want to think so, but Yue Lanjing's eyes made him feel chilled!
The two have been master and apprentice for more than ten years. How could every thought that flashed through his apprentice's eyes escape his eyes?
"That's right, if you want to deal with her, I won't sit idly by! But I don't want to hurt you either. She and you are the most important people to me! Why can't you live in peace?" His eyes were also full of helplessness and sadness.
"Good question!" Luosha was furious, glaring at his beloved disciple for the first time. "But have you ever asked her this question? Has she ever wanted to get along with us? She's the daughter of your father's murderer, yet you still love her so much and truly want to protect her forever! And yet, she stays by your side, deliberately plotting to kill us one by one!"
"The person who killed Eleven was Yan Mingchi! A misjudgment at such a critical moment will only escalate the tragedy!" They always had different opinions on who killed Eleven.
"Okay! I won't deny that Yan Mingchi might still be alive! But based on my understanding of Yan Mingchi, if he wanted revenge, he would have killed us all in one go! Why would he resort to such a troublesome method as poisoning?!"
Compared to Luosha's furious look, Yue Lanjing could still analyze calmly and calmly, "Maybe he wanted to do this, but he just didn't have the ability! Or his ability hasn't recovered yet. Master Jingming once said that he can only be reborn with the help of another body. Since it's another body, his previous skills are definitely gone. Even if there is a way to recover, it will take time! So in this short period of time, he can only kill people like an ordinary person using ordinary methods! To frame others! There is another possibility, maybe he thinks killing us with one knife is too easy for us, so he wants to torture us before he dies! Let us lose our composure and become his killing tools to help him kill people! If you kill Zhao Rirou now, you will be his killing tool!"
Luosha was shocked and felt that what he said made sense, but he still did not think that Zhao Rirou was innocent.
"This is just your subjective conjecture! Do you have evidence to prove that Asahiro is innocent? No, but I have evidence to prove that she stayed with you to find out the truth about her father's death!"
Yue Lanjing's face was bitter. He had actually known this for a long time. "That's perfectly normal. With her intelligence, it's impossible for her not to have any suspicions about me!"
Luosha was so angry that he almost couldn't breathe! "You! You are really possessed by the devil! You are really hopeless!"
It was late at night, and Luosha hadn't slept yet. He couldn't sleep at all. On the one hand, he was too sad and worried about his apprentice's death to sleep, and he always felt that things were not over yet. On the other hand, Jing's behavior really made him sad, but even more worried. If he continued to be so obsessed, Jing would die at the hands of that woman sooner or later! He thought about it over and over again, and he couldn't let that woman stay! Even if it meant turning against Jing, he had to get rid of this scourge. On the other hand, he was worried about Yan Mingchi. Could it be that he was really the one behind it...
There was a knock on the bedroom door, Luosha looked over in confusion. Who else couldn't sleep like him at this time?
When the door was opened, Lao Ba appeared at the door with a serious expression.
"It's so late, why haven't you slept yet?" Luosha asked as he turned and walked inside.
"I saw that you hadn't turned off the lights so late, so I thought you must be worried about something. I was worried and came to check on you!" Lao Ba said as he closed the door.
Luosha sighed deeply, poured himself a glass of water, and swallowed a few heart-protecting pills.
"Did the eldest senior brother tell you something? With his intelligence, he must have seen that we were going to kill Chao Rirou, so in order to stop us, he had an argument with you, right?" Lao Ba was also a smart man, and he could guess many things without asking.
"It's more than just a dispute. I see that he is willing to hit even me, his master, for that woman!" Luosha said as he sat back in his chair.
The eighth brother sat across the table from him, "Big Brother has become like this because of that woman! Master, we must prevent future troubles! This woman must not be allowed to stay!"
"You think so too, right? For Jing's sake, we should get rid of her! Regardless of whether she is the murderer who killed Shiyi, she is definitely Jing's nemesis!"
"If we keep that woman around, we'll undoubtedly be planting a bomb right next to us. Once she finds out that her father's death is related to Senior Brother, she'll definitely seek revenge! I guess she already knows and has already taken action. The first step is to sow discord between us and Senior Brother, so that he will be abandoned by everyone!"
Luosha nodded repeatedly after hearing this. Lao Ba's analysis strengthened his determination to get rid of Zhao Rirou. "This woman must be eliminated quickly!"
"She's pregnant now, and I heard she's having a lot of discomfort. This is a good opportunity to get rid of her!"
Luosha nodded, then suddenly frowned, "It's just that Jing is really a bit of a hindrance!"
"Hua Chuyu, Li Kexiao, and Yue Lanxiu are also in the way. We have to find a way to lure them all away!"
"Well! I'll leave this matter to you!" Lao Ba is resourceful and careful, so Luosha feels relieved to leave the matter to him.
What made him uneasy and unable to sleep or eat was that no matter who the enemy was this time, he had a bad feeling that they would strike again soon! He just didn't know which of his disciples they would target! "You must also be very careful and cautious in your actions. I don't want to see any of you get into trouble again! Remember not to act alone again!"
The other party did take action again, but this time it was the police station that was in trouble!
At night, the police station was holding an emergency meeting regarding the case of Junior Brother Yue Lanjing.
Suddenly, all the lights in the conference room went out, and the police chief was attacked! The scene was in chaos. If Yue Lanxiu hadn't fired several shots and hit the attacker, there would have been casualties!
But even Yue Lanxiu couldn't see clearly whether the attacker was round or flat! The man disappeared after jumping from the third-floor window.
It happened to rain that night, so even if the man was injured, any trace of his blood would have been washed away by the rain.
But because of the rain, a set of strange footprints were found on a muddy road leading to the woods near the police station.
Because few people would go to that woods on weekdays, and it was even less likely that anyone would go there at night when it was raining, so the police determined that those were footprints left by the attacker, and the attacker was most likely still hiding in the woods!
The attacker came and went without a trace. If Yue Lanxiu hadn't hit him, leaving a few drops of blood at the scene, everyone would have thought they had seen a ghost!
The news of the ghost-like figure spread, and only Yue Lanxiu, Yue Lanjing, Hua Chuyu and others thought of Yan Mingchi!
So the next day, those people gathered in the area near the police station to help the police in the search.
So Luosha and Lao Ba both felt that God was helping them. The perfect time to get rid of Asahiro had come! Don't miss it!
"Could it really be Yan Mingchi?" Hua Chuyu and Li Kexiao walked side by side on the path in the woods. Li Kexiao asked Yue Lanxiu who was a few steps ahead, "You have had close contact with him, how come you know nothing about him? You can always tell whether he is fat or thin!" Although he didn't directly say that he was useless, his tone was criticizing.
"So the most regrettable thing is that you were not there at the time, otherwise you would have caught the man long ago! You said you are so powerful, how come you didn't expect him to show up at the police station!" Yue Lanxiu responded without turning his head.
Just as the two were about to start arguing, Xu Rongxuan, who was following closely behind them, interrupted, "It was pitch black at the time, with so many people moving around that it was hard to tell who was who. Xiu shot him, and leaving his DNA is pretty good! As for his height, even though we didn't see it clearly, we have a rough idea. He's about the same height as one of our officers! About 1.75 meters tall, slightly overweight."
"This can only be used as a reference and we can't draw a definitive conclusion. After all, a thin person can look fat by stuffing something in his clothes! Short people can also wear height-increasing shoes!" Yue Lanxiu corrected.
"Why do you think so?" asked Hua Chuyu.
Xu Rongxuan replied, "Because the attacker disguised himself as the police officer and sneaked in, no one noticed anything unusual at the time. This shows how skilled he was in disguise. There aren't many people in the world who can possess such a skill, and Yan Mingchi is one of them!"
"Hasn't the person been caught yet? How do you know he's in disguise?" Li Kexiao was confused.
Xu Rongxuan patiently explained, "After the incident, the only person missing was that police officer. We initially suspected he was suspicious, but when we found him at his home, he had already been dead for two days! So it was impossible for him to be at the meeting! I can't think of anyone other than Yan Mingchi who would have the courage and ability to sneak in so unnoticed!"
The others were also wondering who else it could be if not Yan Mingchi?
After a brief silence, Xu Rongxuan added, "The police have expanded their net. Even a ghost should have appeared, but now it's almost 24 hours and there's still no results. This has only happened before when they were trying to capture Yan Mingchi!"
"It's really harder to kill than ghosts! Ghosts can be looked for by Taoist priests, but who should I look for this thing? How can we deal with this thing that can be resurrected endlessly after death?" Yaren couldn't help but complain at the end.
"There is a way! Although it will be difficult to do!" Yue Lanxiu's words made everyone pause. Even Yue Lanjing and Guan Shaoling, who were walking in the front, turned around to look at him. He was secretly observing the people around him. "But the most difficult thing right now is that we don't know who he is hiding in! Even if we find him, he may not show his true face. He may be in disguise! Even if he shows his true face, you will think he is in disguise!"
"If you say so, with his ability, he might have changed his face and mixed in with us!" Hua Chuyu's words obviously shocked the others, and they couldn't help but move their feet to keep some distance from others. "It's possible that you are Yan Mingchi, it's possible..." He swept his sharp eyes over to the others.
"That's why I suggested from the beginning that everyone should not wear clothes and expose their bodies. That way, it would be easy to see who has gunshot wounds or not! Those with gunshot wounds definitely have problems! It's a pity that the higher-ups don't agree to do this!" Yue Lanxiu sighed dissatisfiedly.
"It's a wonder the higher-ups will agree! If a large army walks around naked in the woods and the media exposes it, the elite troops will become perverted troops!" Xu Rongxuan rolled his eyes.
Hua Chuyu couldn't help but laugh out loud. Who else besides Yue Lanxiu could make him laugh at a time like this?
"So you're not sure where you hit the opponent?" Li Kexiao's eyes once again revealed Yue Lanxiu's inferiority.
"What I can be sure of is that you are definitely not Yan Mingchi. Yan Mingchi is such a shrewd person, he will definitely not be able to imitate a brainless person!" Yue Lanxiu fought back. How could he not know, but he chose not to say it. After his observation, at least within the range of his sight, he could be sure that there was no suspect!
Seeing that Li Kexiao's nostrils were emitting flames again, Xu Rongxuan tried to smooth things over again, "Now is not the time to argue! I remember Master Jingming's analysis. If Yan Mingchi wanted to possess someone in that situation, he couldn't target a normal, healthy person. Only those who were dying, or not yet completely dead, could become his target! So everyone, think carefully, has anyone you know recently been in a coma, or near death, and suddenly woke up and is fine? Similar incidents have occurred!"
The atmosphere suddenly became a little weird. Several people looked at each other, and finally turned their eyes to Hua Chuyu. He was the only one among these people who had experienced life and death some time ago.
"Are you all stupid? How could it be me?" Hua Chuyu looked at Li Kexiao calmly. "When the incident at the police station happened, wasn't I discussing things with you?"
"Yes, he was really with me at that time. Except for going to the bathroom, he never left!" With Li Kexiao's testimony, the others temporarily withdrew their hostile and wary looks.
There was another moment of silence, as everyone fell into deep thought. Suddenly, Guan Shaoling exclaimed, "There's another person!"
Everyone turned their attention to him. He looked at Yue Lanjing, then at Yue Lanxiu, and finally at Hua Chuyu. He said slowly, "Your sister, Zhao Rirou!"
"Impossible!" Yue Lanjing and Yue Lanxiu retorted in unison at the first moment.
"Are you wondering how you could have mistaken the woman you love?" Guan Shaoling looked at the two men, completely bewitched by a single woman, with disdain. "Don't forget, when Cangyue pretended to be Zhao Rirou, you didn't recognize her at first, did you? It's no surprise that your judgment drops to zero when that woman is involved!"
Yue Lanjing and Yue Lanxiu were speechless, and then gradually entered a state of panic. Indeed! If Yan Mingchi wanted to seek revenge on them, he would definitely attack Chao Rirou! Because he knew that Chao Rirou was more important than themselves! Hurting Chao Rirou would be more painful than killing them! This old monster would definitely aim for their hearts! And Chao Rirou was their heart!
"How is it possible? How could Yan Mingchi possess a woman's body?" Xu Rongxuan deliberately emphasized the word 'woman'.
"Maybe he had no choice at that time, and it was good enough to have a body to possess! Besides, Yan Mingchi himself likes men, so it is not impossible that he would choose to be reborn in a woman's body! Another point is that he is very clear about the influence of Chao Rirou on the two of them. Controlling Chao Rirou's body is equivalent to controlling the life and death of both of them!" Guan Shaoling's words were logical and irrefutable.
Hua Chuyu and Li Kexiao looked at each other, and even they couldn't help but wonder if there was anything wrong with Chao Rirou after her rebirth this time.
The cell phone suddenly rang, bringing everyone back to reality from their trance.
Hua Chuyu's cell phone rang. When he saw that it was April Sakura calling, Hua Chuyu immediately had a bad feeling. Sakura knew that he had important things to do tonight, so she usually wouldn't disturb him unless something big happened.
He answered the call immediately, and sure enough, the first sentence that greeted him was "Not good!"
Hua Chuyu's face suddenly turned ugly, and Yue Lanxiu and Yue Lan Jingxin, who were watching from the side, also felt their breath in their throats, fearing that something might have happened to Zhao Rirou again!
Hua Chuyu ran back in a hurry before he even hung up the phone.
"What happened?" Yue Lanxiu asked him from behind, but he seemed not to hear.
Then Li Kexiao's phone rang. It was Yilin calling. He realized that something might have happened at home. After answering the call, his expression became the same as Hua Chuyu's.
"What happened?" Yue Lanxiu walked over, grabbed his arm and asked anxiously.
"Yilin said that Chao Rirou killed someone at home!" Li Kexiao was stunned with shock.
Yue Lanxiu was so shocked that his whole body trembled. Before his brain could react, his body shot out like an arrow the next second!
Yue Lanjing didn't have time to think about anything, she just wanted to rush to her side immediately!
When they arrived at the Li family villa, Chao Rirou's hands had been handcuffed by the police and she was about to be taken away!
Yilin stood aside with a pale face, obviously frightened; April Sakura was trying to stop the police from taking Asahirou away; and Asahirou herself was staring at the several corpses on the grass in great confusion.
"What are you doing? Why are you arresting my sister?" Hua Chuyu's appearance instantly made the police lose their momentum. It was as if the person running towards them was not a person, but an enraged beast! The oppressive feeling coming straight at them made them want to retreat and escape.
The five corpses on the ground suddenly came into view, causing Hua Chuyu to pause and even his breathing froze!
When April Ying saw him, she immediately ran to his side, tears streaming down her face. "I don't know where these bodies came from! I don't know how these police officers got here. We only realized a murder had taken place here when we heard the police car sirens coming downstairs! When the police saw us, they said they were looking for Xiaorou! They said Xiaorou killed these people!"
"What evidence do you have for saying that?!" Hua Chuyu glared with his black eyes, scaring the police so much that they dared not look directly at him, as if a knife would fly out of him.
"Someone called the police and said someone was killing people here and asked us to come over quickly to save them. When we arrived, four people had already fallen to the ground and were motionless! Another person was crawling towards us covered in blood, asking for help and telling us that it was done by a man named Asahirou! But he died right after he finished speaking!" the police said respectfully.
Zhao Rirou looked over here, and Hua Chuyu happened to be looking at her. For a moment, he saw the shadow of Yan Mingchi in her!
He shook his head violently, thinking he was influenced by Guan Shaoling's words! He gritted his teeth secretly, he couldn't do this, he couldn't distrust his sister just based on a few random guesses!
"Just based on these few words, you conclude that it was my sister who did it?" Hua Chuyu scolded.
Under his freezing gaze, the police officer was almost frightened and his voice was trembling. "Of course not. We have asked your sister, and she said she didn't kill anyone. We don't know how this could happen..."
Hua Chuyu interrupted, "That's good, she said she didn't kill anyone, why did you arrest her?"
The police officer couldn't help but murmur secretly, this big brother is too doting on his sister, is she? Just because she said she didn't kill him, does that mean she didn't kill him? "Well, listen to me slowly, we later found out there was a surveillance camera, but your sister told us it was broken."
"The surveillance is broken, my sister is right!"
"Well, hear me out, I thought I'd check the surveillance myself, and guess what, it wasn't broken!"
Hua Chuyu and Si Yueying exchanged a glance, both filled with surprise and suspicion. Si Yueying said, "I don't know who fixed it, and they didn't even tell us!"
April Sakura's eyes told him that the surveillance camera must have captured something unfavorable to Asahirou. He looked at the police calmly, "And then?"
"Then, we saw the scene of your sister killing someone!"
Hua Chuyu glared, as if about to launch an attack, frightening the police officer so much that he subconsciously held his head in his hands. "The lady next to you also saw it. If you don't believe me, you can see for yourself!"
April Sakura immediately defended Asahirou, "We only saw a woman wearing the same clothes and with a similar figure killing people. We never saw her face from beginning to end, only a few back views! How can we conclude that it was Asahirou?"
"But, there are only three of you women here, and there is no other woman. If it's not her, could it be..." The police wanted to say it was you, but under Hua Chuyu's stare, he swallowed his words.
Yue Lanxiu, Yue Lanjing and others arrived immediately.
The two men only had Asahiro in their eyes. Before they found her figure, they seemed to see nothing else. As soon as they saw her figure, they ran towards her.
"Are you okay?" The two men stood on her left and right, checking to see if she was injured.
When Yue Lanjing saw the handcuffs on her hands, the worry and anxiety in her eyes almost overflowed.
Yue Lanxiu noticed something was wrong with her. She was in a trance, with sweat on her forehead. He subconsciously wiped it away for her, but then he noticed her forehead was very hot and exclaimed, "You have a fever!"
"You're here!" Zhao Rirou was truly feeling unwell. Her body was already weak due to her pregnancy, and then she was inexplicably involved in a murder case. She was truly tormented to the point of almost dying! Upon seeing Yue Lanxiu, her nerves relaxed, as if she had found the safest haven. She leaned towards him with peace of mind! With him by her side, she could finally sleep peacefully for a while!
Yue Lanxiu took the opportunity to hug her lovingly, and when he found that she was wearing thin pajamas, he took off his coat and put it on her.
Yue Lanjing turned her face away, and a flash of great pain appeared in her eyes full of loss.
Just as he stood there at a loss, an uncontrolled scream in his ear drew his attention away.
"Old Five?! Oh my god! How could it be you!" Guan Shaoling, who had come with them, screamed in shock when he discovered that one of the bodies on the ground was actually one of his own. His originally calm eyes became anxious and he subconsciously ran towards the other bodies. When he saw their extremely familiar faces, he screamed in shock again, "No!"
Yue Lanjing hurried over. When he saw that the man lying on the ground, covered by a white sheet by the police, was actually his good brother who had been through thick and thin with him for many years, his legs couldn't help but give way. He fell to his knees, a trace of fear in his trembling eyes. His mouth was slightly open, but he seemed to be out of breath...
"Jing!" Guan Shaoling came over hurriedly to support his tense body, "Calm down! You can't get into trouble again! Otherwise, who will avenge them..." As he spoke, his eyes turned red, because of sadness and hatred!
Yue Lanjing was so shocked that she couldn't speak. She seemed to be stunned by the scene before her and didn't move for a long time.
Yue Lanxiu realized the seriousness of the situation and was shocked, but more of it was uneasy and worried. These emotions surged in his heart like waves, almost bursting through his chest.
He subconsciously hugged the person in his arms tightly, wishing he could hide her in his body, as if this was the only way to protect her from harm!
