Naturally, Su Ziyue wouldn’t ask them what they had found. Even if she asked, they definitely wouldn’t tell her anything.
“The truth is, I’ve never thought of killing her, regardless of when that incident happened that year or when I met Xu Youran again at the hot spring.”
In fact, if An Xia hadn’t mentioned it, she had almost forgotten that it was Xu Youran who had exposed her news that year. That year, she did resent her when she was drowned in everyone’s contemptuous gazes. However, Su Yige was the one she truly resented because she knew that Su Yige was the primary culprit. She couldn’t even remember what Xu Youran looked like. After all, they were talking about a person’s life. No matter why Xu Youran had helped Su Yige to frame her back then, she didn’t deserve to die.
The policeman looked at her expressionlessly, seemingly pondering if she was telling the truth. After thinking for a while, Su Ziyue added, “When you were investigating Xu Youran, you must have come across her photos of when she was in high school, where she looks completely different from now. If my friend hadn’t mentioned her, I wouldn’t even be able to recognize Xu Youran.”
The policeman pursed his lips while nodding without commenting on what Su Ziyue said. Instead, he asked her, “You’re not on friendly terms with your aunt, Zhou Lingyu, and your cousin, Su Yige?”
Narrowing her eyes, Su Ziyue looked at the policeman. Then, she suddenly smiled and asked him, “Is this question related to this case too?”
The policeman looked at Su Ziyue’s mesmerizing eyes for two seconds before he abruptly turned his head to a side. “Of course.”
“Yes, I’m not on good terms with them. May I know if you have any other questions, sir?” Su Ziyue smiled. “Did you all find out something else?”
The policeman stood up. “There are no other questions. You may go back now. However, you’re still a suspect.”
Su Ziyue nodded and stood up to leave. When she got out, the Su family was gone, and she didn’t see Zhou Lingyu either. Perhaps she had been seized since there was firm evidence that she was the killer.
The young policeman, who had interrogated Su Ziyue earlier, stared at her leaving figure, in a daze. The new intern, whom he mentored, hurried over. “Sir, I heard that Miss Su came. How does she look? Is she really pretty?”
The young policeman turned back to look at him. “Work harder, and talk less.” With that, he turned to head toward his office.
The intern smiled abashedly. Following his mentor, the intern couldn’t hold it in in the end and blurted, “These wealthy people are just like what the dramas show, scheming and conspiring…”
The young policeman turned back to give him a glance. “Psychotic killers like in the movies have appeared in real life before too.”
The intern was rendered speechless.
…
Walking out from the police station, Su Ziyue realized that it was still early, so she decided to return to the office, thinking that she should at least make an appearance. After all, everyone in the office knew that she had been brought away by the police. However, before returning to the office, she signed up for an account on Twitter using her phone.
She knew a famous paparazzo who specialized in digging up breaking news. Besides, that paparazzo’s identity was extremely mysterious, and he was still able to live safely after exposing countless news of famous people.
Although paparazzi generally only focused on celebrities’ news, shocking news from great families like the Su family would not be inferior to the celebrities and would attract enormous click counts as well. Besides, it was Su Yige’s mother who was involved in the murder case, and it had not been long since Su Yige called off her engagement. This was probably an ideal example of hitting a man when he was down. A mother involved in a murder case and her daughter who had just called off an engagement; this news would be a hit. Therefore, the reporter definitely wouldn’t give up this opportunity.
Su Ziyue found the account of that reporter and sent the person a private message. After sending the message, she kept her phone and went back to the office by car. When she reached the office, she signed in to that account again to check.
That reporter replied to her with an ‘okay’ emoji and said that if that was true, she would pay her.
Su Ziyue replied, ‘It’s definitely true.’ Then, she signed out.
…
Everyone in the LK branch had been living in an oppressive atmosphere for more than a week. As the creator of that oppressive atmosphere, Qin Muchen became even worse. When he returned to his president’s office after the meeting, Nan Chuan called him. “Mr. Qin, I found the person you told me to find. How would you like to deal with him?”
Qin Muchen rubbed his temples and replied, “Leave it to me.” After that, he added, “You’ve been slacking off recently.” He had instructed Nan Chuan to find that person last night, but the latter only found him now.
On the other side, Nan Chuan silently wiped away the cold sweat that seeped out of his forehead. He received the call at midnight and was instructed to investigate a thief. There was no information given on the stolen item, the thief’s appearance, nor his features. Other than strangely instructing him to find a thief, he was given other tasks too. Yet, he couldn’t do two tasks at the same time. Although he felt aggrieved, he could only bear it and speak nothing about it.
After hanging up the call, Qin Muchen sank into deep thought. The housing estate that Su Ziyue lived in had outrageously poor security, so he couldn’t let her stay there any longer. Thinking of that, he called Nan Chuan again and gave him a few orders before ending the call.
…
When Su Ziyue returned to Su Group, Su Youcheng was there too. As soon as she stepped into the office, Su Youcheng’s secretary came to seek her out. “Director Su, the Chairman wants to meet you.”
“Alright, I’ve got it. I’ll go over there now.” After thinking for a bit, Su Ziyue stood up and headed toward
Su Youcheng’s office to meet him. Previously, when she met the Su family at the police station, they were talking with the police, so they didn’t have the time to bother about her. Of course, Su Yige was an exception.
“Grandpa.” When Su Ziyue went in, she realized that Su Youcheng was smoking. He was frowning, looking depressed.
After Su Ziyue came in, Su Youcheng stubbed out the cigarette in his hand and turned to carefully look Su Ziyue up and down before saying, “Have a seat.”
Upon hearing that, Su Ziyue sat on the opposite side of Su Youcheng.
“How much do you know about this case, and are you related to it?” Strangely, Su Youcheng’s tone was not as stern as usual. Instead, he sounded helpless. This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .
Su Ziyue replied honestly, “I’m not related to it. I just met the deceased a few times.”
Upon hearing that, Su Youcheng surprisingly looked relieved. “That’s a relief.” He shook his head. “Carry on with your work. For the time being, please pay more attention to the matters of the company.” It was rare that he sounded so gentle.
Su Yiyue looked suspiciously at Su Youcheng and probed, “Grandpa, what are you worrying about? Is Auntie really related to this case?” Although she wasn’t sure what Zhou Lingyu’s motive was, there was a possibility of her murdering Xu Youran if she really had a conflict with her. Besides, Qin Muchen mentioned before that Zhou Lingyu was indeed related to this whole case.
