A couple's phone case?
Ye Zi's eyes widened. If that was the case …
Could Tang Yang and Xiao Yihuan be a couple?
Ye Zi furrowed her brows. No matter how she thought about it, it did not seem like they were in that kind of relationship. Please search on Baidu.
She had been to Tang Yang's house before. It was obviously a single woman's house. Before she left, Ye Zi even took a glance at the bathroom. There were towels, towels, toothbrushes, and other toiletries. It was obvious that Tang Yang lived alone.
Could it be a coincidence?
The two of them happened to be using the same phone case.
Ye Zi could not figure it out, and her brows furrowed even deeper.
Jian Xia nudged Ye Zi with her elbow and asked softly, "Xiaozi, where did you get the video?"
Ye Zi was slightly stunned when she heard that. She lowered her lashes and thought about it for a while before she said slowly, "Brother Chen Mo sent it to me. It's about his case."
Jian Xia and To Look Around did not suspect anything. After exchanging glances, they looked at Ye Zi's phone screen.
Ye Zi leaned against the sink and furrowed her brows. She carefully recalled what To Look Around had said.
Could it be that Tang Yang and Xiao Yihuan were a couple?
That might be a clue. Since Ye Zi did not have any leads, she might as well investigate it.
Then, the three women returned to the private room.
After dinner, Ye Zi and Lin Yan got into the car and returned to Xinglan Bay Apartments.
The night passed uneventfully. The next morning, while Lin Yan was at work, Ye Zi sneaked out of the house and headed to the high-end residential area in the heart of the city.
The taxi stopped, and Ye Zi walked out of it.
Raising her eyes to look at the sky that was as blue as silk, Ye Zi's heart sank slightly. During this period of time, her heart had always been laden with worries. If it wasn't for Lin Yan's presence at night, she most likely wouldn't have been able to sleep either. But even so, there were still dark circles under her eyes.
In such cold weather, a breath of air condensed into frost in midair. Ye Zi exhaled a breath of hot air, warmed her hands, and covered her ears.
But even so, it was still not warm. After walking across the flagstone road, Ye Zi arrived at Xiao Yihuan's house.
When someone opened the door and came out, Ye Zi sneaked in.
She took the elevator and arrived at Tang Yang's house. She looked around and pressed the doorbell.
But after a long time, no one opened the door. Ye Zi frowned slightly. It seemed that Tang Yang was not at home. Just as she turned to leave, she suddenly heard the crisp sound of the door opening. The sound did not come from Tang Yang's house, but from … Xiao Yihuan's house.
Ye Zi immediately widened her eyes and quickly ran into the stairwell. She opened the door of the stairwell a crack and focused her clear and bright eyes on the corridor.
She saw Tang Yang poking his head out of Xiao Yihuan's house. He looked around and saw that there was no one around, so he quickly walked out of Xiao Yihuan's house.
Immediately, Ye Zi's amber-like pupils abruptly constricted in her eye sockets.
Tang Yang had the key to Xiao Yihuan's house!
Even Chen Mo did not realize this. Watching Tang Yang walk into her house, Ye Zi frowned deeply. She walked down the stairs and took the elevator to leave.
Standing downstairs, Ye Zi looked up at Xiao Yihuan's house. After a while, Ye Zi took out her phone and dialed Chen Mo's number.
Chen Mo had no clue about the case for the past two days. There was a thick stack of files on his desk. His face was pale, and the dark circles under his eyes could be compared to a national treasure. He had not slept for two days. Just as he was about to doze off on his desk, his phone rang.
He furrowed his brows tightly, looking slightly displeased. He squinted his eyes and fumbled for his phone on his desk. He picked up the call, and a gentle and sweet female voice came through the phone. "Brother Chen Mo …"
Hearing those three words, Chen Mo's eyes suddenly lit up, and he immediately perked up. He smiled awkwardly and said into the phone, "Little girl, what can I do for you?"
"Yeah," Ye Zi replied. "I just found a very important clue."
Chen Mo could not help but frown when he heard that. "I'm at the criminal police station. Come over."
"Okay."
Ye Zi hung up the phone and walked out of the neighborhood.
"Officer Ye."
Suddenly, a clear voice came from behind Ye Zi. Hearing that, Ye Zi turned her head and looked behind her. Tang Yang was wearing a purple mink coat, holding a dinner bag, and walking out of the corridor in heels that were more than ten centimeters high.
There was a faint smile on her lips as she waved at Ye Zi. "What a coincidence. Are you here to …" She thought for a moment and smiled. "Are you here to investigate my neighbor's case?"
Ye Zi looked up and stared into Tang Yang's eyes. Tang Yang had a pair of very beautiful eyes that were like the bottomless ocean. It was as if one could get stuck in her eyes and not be able to extricate themselves.
She narrowed her eyes and avoided Tang Yang's eyes. There was a faint smile on her lips as she nodded at Tang Yang.
Tang Yang raised her chin, squinted her eyes, and nodded slightly. "Do you have any clues?"
Ye Zi shook her head. "Not yet."
Hearing Ye Zi's reply, the corners of Tang Yang's mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly. However, when she met Ye Zi's eyes, the smile on her face instantly disappeared and was replaced by sorrow.
She raised her hand to cover her chest with a sorrowful expression. She sighed and softly murmured, "It's really pitiful. Such a young man is gone."
Ye Zi slightly narrowed her eyes when she heard that. Ever since she met Tang Yang, Ye Zi never said that Xiao Yihuan was dead. She only said that her neighbor was missing. There was no news about Xiao Yihuan on TV or in the newspapers. So how did Tang Yang know that she was dead?
Ye Zi did not show anything on her face. She just faintly smiled. "Yeah, it's really pitiful."
Tang Yang helplessly raised his brows, as if he agreed with Ye Zi's words.
Ye Zi's eyes looked at Tang Yang from head to toe. In the end, her eyes stopped at the suitcase behind Tang Yang. She slightly furrowed her brows, but she immediately recovered and faintly smiled. "Miss Tang, are you going out?"
Tang Yang noncommittally nodded. "Yeah, I'm going on a business trip. I'll be in Tong City for a few days."
Ye Zi nodded. "Then I won't bother you any longer. I'll take my leave first."
After that, Ye Zi turned around and left.
Tang Yang slightly squinted his eyes as he stared at Ye Zi's disappearing figure. His expression changed, and he couldn't help but frown. After pondering for a while, a cold arc appeared on the corner of his mouth. He sneered and shook his head. Then, he walked towards the parking lot in his high heels.
Ye Zi didn't leave immediately. Instead, she walked out of the neighborhood and found a corner to hide. She poked her head out and looked in the direction of the neighborhood's gate.
Not long after, a black Hummer drove out.
Ye Zi noted down Tang Yang's license plate number. Then, she flagged down a taxi and told the driver to go to the Municipal Crime Squad.
In the taxi, she sent a WeChat message to Chen Mo. Just when she was about to send it, her phone suddenly received a message.
"Don't call the police. You have to catch her yourself."
Ye Zi stared blankly at the contents of the message. This phone number … …
She narrowed her eyes as the name 'mystery man' flashed across her mind. That's right. It should be him. He sent another message. Would he use someone else's phone this time?!
Ye Zi's face instantly turned pale. She bit her lip hard and took two deep breaths to calm herself down.
"What do you want me to do?" Ye Zi sent a message to him.
"Let's continue the game. If we get caught by the police, then it'll be pointless," he replied.
Ye Zi tightened her grip on her phone. Then, she deleted the message she wanted to send to Chen Mo one word at a time.
Then, Ye Zi glanced at the driver and said, "Sir, we're not going to the Criminal Police Unit."
The driver asked, "Where are we going then?"
Ye Zi pursed her lips and looked up at the black Hummer not far away. She said in a low voice, "Follow the black Hummer in front."
The driver glanced at Ye Zi through the rearview mirror and followed her instructions. He stepped on the accelerator and chased after Tang Yang's Hummer.
At the next intersection, the black Hummer suddenly changed direction. The taxi that Ye Zi was in was stopped by the traffic light. She could only watch as Tang Yang's car disappeared in front of her.
Ye Zi narrowed her eyes. The black Hummer did not change direction to the airport.
Didn't Tang Yang say that she was going on a business trip?
How could it be...
"Miss, now …"
The taxi driver's voice pulled Ye Zi back to her senses. She shook her head at the driver. "No need. Take me to Xinglan Bay Apartments."
The driver's expression did not look good. He glanced at Ye Zi. When the traffic light turned green, he turned left at the next intersection and drove in the direction of Xinglan Bay Apartments.
After getting out of the car, Ye Zi did not go home directly. Her face was gloomy as if a layer of dark clouds was shrouding her.
She frowned and thought about how to prove that Tang Yang was Xiao Yihuan's murderer. At that moment, her phone rang.
Ye Zi took out her phone from the pocket of her cashmere coat. She glanced at it and saw that it was a call from Chen Mo.
She abruptly raised her hand and slapped her forehead hard.
Sh * t!
She had just called Chen Mo and told him that she was going to the Municipal Crime Squad, but now …
