Ye Zi watched as Chen Mo led the criminal police out of the hospital. She sat down on a bench in the hospital corridor listlessly. The medical staff and patients were in a hurry, but it seemed as if Ye Zi didn't see any of this.
She stared at her phone without blinking. Time ticked by.
Ring, ring, ring …
After about half an hour, Ye Zi's phone suddenly rang. She looked at her phone hurriedly.
It was a call from Chen Mo.
Ye Zi hurriedly picked up the phone.
Chen Mo's low and hoarse voice came from the phone. "Little girl, we've caught him. He's on the way back to the Municipal Crime Squad."
Ye Zi took a deep breath. Her heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally returned to its original position. She coughed lightly and adjusted her voice before saying, "Brother Chen Mo, can I participate in the interrogation?"
Chen Mo was silent for two seconds before he said, "Okay."
…
A taxi stopped outside the Municipal Crime Squad. Ye Zi paid the driver as fast as she could and rushed into the criminal police station.
At that moment, Chen Mo had already walked into the interrogation room. Looking at Chen Xiujie, whose face was as pale as a piece of paper, Chen Mo's gloomy face seemed to be shrouded in a thick layer of dark clouds. It seemed as if a violent storm was about to start in the next second.
"Pa!" There was a muffled sound.
Chen Mo threw the thick interrogation notebook in his hand on the interrogation table. He looked at Chen Xiujie coldly and opened his thin lips slightly. He said coldly, "Tell me the truth. Why did you kill Lin Tianzhe?"
"I …" Chen Xiujie's body suddenly trembled. She looked at Chen Mo with trembling eyes. She bit her lower lip tightly and took a deep breath. She muttered, "I don't know what you're talking about. Tianzhe is my son after ten months of pregnancy. How could I kill my own son?! "
"Ha!" Chen Mo sneered, "Now that things have come to this, you still don't want to explain?!"
Chen Xiujie gritted her teeth. "Explain? What do you want me to explain!? "
Chen Mo's eyes darkened. He took out an evidence bag and threw it in front of Chen Xiujie. "This is Lin Tianzhe's DNA report. Do you still want to argue?"
Chen Xiujie was stunned. She bit her lip hard. "What can this prove? Even if Tianzhe is not my biological son, it does not mean that I killed him. I am very sad that my son is dead. Instead of catching the murderer, you want to interrogate me. You, you …"
Creak.
The door of the interrogation room opened again. Ye Zi lowered her head. Because she ran in a hurry, her forehead was covered in sweat. Step by step, she walked toward Chen Mo.
Along the way, Ye Zi did not look at Chen Xiujie at all.
"You're here," Chen Mo said as he glanced at his side and gestured for Ye Zi to sit next to him.
Ye Zi nodded slightly and sat down opposite Chen Mo.
Only at this moment did Ye Zi raise her eyes. Her indifferent yet sharp gaze stared coldly at Chen Xiujie.
Chen Xiujie was very nervous when she faced Ye Zi again. She bit her lower lip hard and slowly raised her head. She stole a glance at Ye Zi and then quickly lowered her head, not daring to look into Ye Zi's eyes.
Ye Zi did not say a word. No one knew what she was thinking.
She just looked at Chen Xiujie coldly. Her cold eyes did not blink.
Her gaze was like a sharp arrow. It splashed layers of ripples in the air and pierced straight into Chen Xiujie's heart.
Chen Xiujie took a deep breath and clenched her hands together tightly. Then, she separated her hands and clenched them again.
No one spoke in the interrogation room. It was very quiet. It was as quiet as an empty valley. Only Ye Zi, Chen Mo, and Chen Xiujie's breathing could be heard.
The light in the interrogation room was very dim. When it shone on Chen Xiujie's face, it made her face look even paler. It was so pale that there was not a trace of blood.
Chen Xiujie's lips trembled slightly. She looked up at Ye Zi from time to time.
Perhaps it was because Chen Xiujie had been deceiving Ye Zi and using Ye Zi from the beginning to the end. So, at this moment, she was feeling uneasy.
Chen Mo had agreed to let Ye Zi interrogate this case. So, he did not say anything. He had been waiting for Ye Zi to question Chen Xiujie.
Ye Zi did not seem to care about Chen Xiujie at all. It was as if the woman sitting across the interrogation table was just a stranger. She was the culprit who was suspected of killing her adopted son.
She organized the interrogation records. Then, she gathered her long hair and tied it up in a ponytail. At this moment, Ye Zi looked up at Chen Xiujie and asked, "How did you kill Lin Tianzhe?"
She did not give Chen Xiujie any chance to find an opening. She opened her mouth and asked the most important question.
Chen Xiujie deeply furrowed her brows. Her dark pupils shrunk in her eye sockets. She didn't reply to Ye Zi's words. Instead, she slowly lowered her head and buried it in her chest.
Ye Zi stood up and walked in front of Chen Xiujie. "Since you don't want to say it, let me do it."
Chen Xiujie was stunned when she heard this. She frowned and looked at Ye Zi.
Ye Zi curled her lips. A cold look flashed in her eyes. She said slowly, "First of all, you can't have children."
Chen Xiujie's body suddenly froze when she heard Ye Zi's words.
She had never mentioned this before. She had only seen infertility cases in other cities. She did not have any medical records in Binhai City. How did Ye Zi know?!
Ye Zi looked at her shocked expression. Her lips curled up again. "Looking at the expression on your face, I know that my profiling is correct."
She continued, "Lin Tianzhe is Tang Qiuyu's illegitimate child. You already knew this when you married Lin Liang. At the beginning, your marriage was very happy. It was a typical family of three. You couldn't have children, but Lin Tianzhe made up for it. However, you didn't realize that it was all an illusion created by Lin Liang."
Ye Zi's long and fair fingers gently tapped on the interrogation table in front of Chen Xiujie. "When you found out that Lin Liang had other women outside, you started to complain about this family, Lin Liang, and even Lin Tianzhe."
"You complained about this hypocritical family. You complained about Lin Liang's ruthlessness. You complained that Lin Tianzhe was never your biological son."
Ye Zi paused for a moment before she slowly bent down and moved closer to Chen Xiujie. Her cold and focused eyes stared at Chen Xiujie without blinking.
Seeing Chen Xiujie's pale face, Ye Zi's lips curled up again and again. "You always thought how good it would be if Lin Tianzhe was your son. That way, you would be able to tie Lin Liang down."
"From the day I first met you, perhaps you already had an idea …"
Ye Zi paused slightly. "Or, let me put it in another way so that you can understand."
Ye Zi walked behind Chen Xiujie and placed her hands on her shoulders. "You wanted to find a private detective agency to use. First, you made me think that you were heartbroken over your son's death. Then, you committed suicide in the hospital. You wanted us to believe that you had no more feelings for the world …"
Hearing this, Chen Xiujie finally said, "My suicide was real!"
"Really?!" Ye Zi raised her eyebrows slightly and said with a cold smile, "If you really wanted to commit suicide, you had plenty of time to leave the hospital. Or, you could have run to the top floor of the hospital and jumped down. Instead of staying in the hospital and waiting for us to arrive, you would have slit your wrist to save yourself."
Chen Xiujie was speechless.
Ye Zi sneered and continued, "Since you don't want to admit how you killed Lin Tianzhe, why don't you let me guess."
She turned around and returned to her original position. Crossing her legs, she said, "All this time, you have treated Lin Tianzhe like your own son. This is undeniable. However, you never thought that Tang Qiuyu would want to acknowledge her own son."
"Our detective agency once saw Tang Qiuyu meet Lin Tianzhe privately in the neighborhood's surveillance footage."
Ye Zi paused for a moment before continuing, "When Lin Tianzhe returned home, he asked you if this was the case. Because of Lin Liang's attitude towards you, you became angry at Lin Tianzhe. This was also the first time you hit Lin Tianzhe."
"Perhaps, you regretted it afterwards …"
Ye Zi looked at Chen Xiujie's eyes as tears silently rolled down her cheeks.
She picked up the mineral water on the interrogation table, twisted the cap, and took a big gulp. Then she continued, "But Lin Liang still wanted to divorce you. At this time, you wanted to fight to the death with Lin Liang."
Hearing this, Chen Xiujie suddenly raised her eyes. Her pupils were constantly shrinking in their sockets. She forcefully swallowed a mouthful of saliva. It was as though Ye Zi had been standing behind her when she had done all this.
"You placed something in Lin Tianzhe's food, and after he lost consciousness, you dragged him into the bathroom and slit his wrist to make it look like he had committed suicide. But what you didn't expect was that Lin Tianzhe had once asked our detective agency to pursue a girl."
"When you saw me, you beat me at my own game. You pretended to be a mother who had lost her child and wanted us to investigate. That way, you would naturally be cleared of suspicion."
Chen Xiujie pursed her lips tightly. After a while, she slowly raised her head and stared at Ye Zi. Then she said in a low voice, "But I didn't run away …"
"You could have run away." Ye Zi interrupted Chen Xiujie. "But you weren't satisfied. You wanted to take revenge on Lin Liang."
She stood up and placed her hands on the interrogation table. She stared coldly at Chen Xiujie. "The reason was because Lin Liang found out about Lin Tianzhe's death and hit you. Am I right?" She was still troubled by the fact that she couldn't find the latest chapter? Amway a public account: r/d/444
