Ye Zi smiled embarrassedly, revealing her small white teeth. "Brother Chen Mo, you see, it's not easy for me to get a job. No matter what, I have to help the employer investigate the truth of the matter …"
"Now that there is a murder case, it's not something that your detective agency can investigate. It's better to go and catch the adulterer."
Chen Mo didn't look down on Ye Zi, but because the murder case was really too dangerous.
She was his master's adopted daughter. Before his master died, Chen Mo had promised his master that he would take good care of her. He couldn't let Ye Zi be in danger, not even a little bit.
"Brother Chen Mo, don't look down on me. I have been practicing Taekwondo since I was a child." Ye Zi didn't want to be outdone and raised her sharp chin.
Chen Mo glanced at Ye Zi's thin arms and legs and smiled. "I still don't know what you are capable of. Go back obediently. Don't stay here and make trouble for me."
"Brother Chen Mo, just let me stay. You see, you can't ask anything now. I'm not a policeman, and I'm hired by Andrew Lim. Maybe I can help you." Ye Zi looked at Chen Mo with a flattering face.
Chen Mo understood Ye Zi's character. If he really didn't let her investigate, she would find ways to secretly investigate. It was better to let Ye Zi be under his eyes, and he could take care of her.
"Forget it. You can investigate, but remember one thing …"
"You can't cross the line."
Ye Zi snorted and said in Chen Mo's tone, "Once you cross the line, even I can't protect you."
Chen Mo shook his head helplessly. His finger gently tapped on Ye Zi's forehead, and he gave his colleague a look. Then, he left the Lin Family's villa.
Ding dong.
Ye Zi rang the doorbell. She could vaguely hear Fang Wan Qing's angry voice. "How could you do this? Didn't I tell you …"
The moment they opened the door, Fang Wan Qing was slightly startled. "You are …"
"Hello, Miss, we've met before." Ye Zi had a smile on her face, giving off a refreshing feeling. "I'm a private detective hired by Mr. Lin, and I'm in charge of his other sister's case."
Knowing that Ye Zi was not a police officer, Fang Wan Qing relaxed her guard. She turned sideways and raised her hand to make an inviting gesture toward the villa. "Come in."
Then, Ye Zi followed Fang Wan Qing into the house. The spacious living room of the villa seemed deserted. Because Mu Tianjiao had died an unnatural death, her body was still in the autopsy room of the police station. It had not been returned to the family, so they did not hold a funeral.
Ye Zi sat on the sofa in the living room, and the servant, Mei Jie, served two cups of tea.
"Brother-in-law has been in a bad state for the past two days. It's not suitable for him to answer your questions now. If you have any questions, you can ask me." Fang Wan Qing crossed her legs and looked at Ye Zi warily.
Ye Zi was extremely indifferent. She picked up the cup and took a sip. "If I remember correctly, I should call you Miss Fang, right?"
Fang Wan Qing nodded and said, "Well, you should be wondering why my sister and I have different surnames."
Ye Zi nodded noncommittally.
"Haha." Fang Wanqing smiled sheepishly. "We are orphans. Uncle Mu and Auntie Mu couldn't have children, so they chose my sister and me from many other children. My sister has always been well-liked since she was young, so they adopted her. In the same year, I was adopted by my adoptive parents and went to live in the United States. I only came back this year to reunite with my sister."
Ye Zi nodded and stared at Fang Wan Qing. She asked, "Do you know who Miss Mu has any enemies?"
"Yes!" Fang Wan Qing suddenly raised her voice. "It must be Mu Tianlong. My sister must have been killed by Mu Tianlong!"
Her voice became a little impatient, and tears gushed out in an instant. Fang Wan Qing sniffled hard and sobbed. "Mu Tianlong was dissatisfied that Uncle Mu gave the Muting Group to my sister. He often threatened my sister …"
Ye Zi glanced at Yao Anmian and motioned for him to write it down. Yao Anmian nodded to Ye Zi and quickly wrote down the relationship between Mu Tianjiao and Mu Tianlong.
"Miss Fang, do you have any substantial evidence?" Ye Zi frowned and asked again.
Fang Wan Qing nodded again and again. "Wait a minute."
After saying that, she got up and ran upstairs. After a while, Fang Wan Qing came back with a box in her hand. She placed the box on the coffee table in front of Ye Zi. "These things were sent by Mu Tianlong. My sister asked me to throw them away, but I kept them."
Ye Zi opened the box and could not help but shiver.
There were many horrifying pictures and threatening letters in the box. Ye Zi frowned slightly. "How can you be sure that these things were sent by Mu Tianlong?"
Fang Wan Qing replied, "My sister recognized Mu Tianlong's notes, but she was good at sticking to Uncle Mu and did not argue with Mu Tianlong, but he …"
It seemed that Fang Wan Qing had already determined that Mu Tianlong was the real culprit behind Mu Tianjiao's murder. When she spoke, her eyes were filled with hatred.
Ye Zi glanced at the threatening letters in the box. "Can I take these with me?"
"Since you are the detective Brother-in-law hired, you can take them with you if these things can help in the investigation of my sister's case." Fang Wan Qing sighed and rubbed her teary eyes.
Ye Zi had wanted to see Andrew Lim again, but Fang Wan Qing said that he was not in a good state, so she did not disturb him.
After leaving the Lin villa, Ye Zi felt that Mu Tianlong was still the biggest suspect. As the vice-president of a listed company, she should be able to find information about Mu Tianlong online. She passed the box to Yao Anmian.
"Check Mu Tianlong's notes and see if these threatening letters were written by him."
Yao Anmian took the box from Ye Zi's hand and nodded. "Boss, shouldn't we meet Mr. Mu now?"
"Ha!" Ye Zi sneered. "Not for the time being."
"Why?" Yao Anmian was puzzled. He frowned and looked at his boss.
Ye Zi's eyes narrowed as a trace of suspicion surfaced in her gaze. Her brows slightly raised as she muttered, "I want to confirm what Miss Fang has said."
"Boss, are you suspecting Fang Wan Qing?" Yao Anmian stared at Ye Zi in confusion.
Ye Zi raised her hand and touched her sharp chin. She narrowed her eyes and said, "I won't believe anyone before the case is investigated clearly."
This was what her father had taught her since she was a child. Before the case was investigated clearly, anyone could be the real murderer.
"Do you remember which orphanage it was?" Ye Zi asked.
"It's an orphanage under the Lin family."
Hearing this, Ye Zi's lips twitched slightly. No matter where she went, she couldn't get rid of that jinx.
After Lam's Group rose, it became a charity enterprise in Binhai City. Lin Yan even ordered that 10% of Lam's Group's profits should be used for charity every year.
This orphanage was one of the first beneficiaries.
Outside a monastery in the suburbs of Binhai City, Ye Zi got out of a taxi. Looking at the decoration of the monastery, she couldn't help but sigh. If she hadn't been adopted by her father, she would have entered this orphanage.
A Nuns walked out of the monastery with a Bible in her hand. She glanced at Ye Zi and said, "Hello, miss. Who are you looking for?"
Ye Zi raised her hand and said a Buddhist hymn. She suddenly realized that something was wrong. She smiled and said, "I just want to visit."
"Visit?!" Nuns frowned and her expression changed slightly. No matter how she looked at it, Ye Zi looked like she was here to make trouble. "Miss, this place is not open to the public. If there's nothing else, please leave."
"Nuns …" Ye Zi's eyes turned and she grabbed Yao Anmian's neck.
"Cough, cough, cough …" Because she used too much strength, Yao Anmian felt like his neck was about to be broken. His face turned pale and blue veins popped up on his forehead. He slapped Ye Zi's hand hard. "Bo, Boss … Let, let go …"
Ye Zi smiled and said to Nuns, "This is my brother. He has some problems with his IQ. I want to ask if he can be sent here."
Nuns frowned and glanced at Yao Anmian. Then she looked at Ye Zi. "Miss, please don't make trouble."
"Nuns, I'm really not here to make trouble. You see, my brother is really not very smart." Ye Zi frequently winked at Yao Anmian, hoping that he could cooperate with her.
However, at this time, Yao Anmian almost suffocated to death. How could he cooperate with Ye Zi?
Seeing this, Ye Zi quickly let go of her hand. She smiled embarrassedly and winked at Yao Anmian.
Yao Anmian's left hand was six and his right hand was seven. His left shoulder was high and his right shoulder was low. He drew a circle with his left leg and kicked with his right leg. He looked like he was paralyzed.
Ye Zi raised her hand and held her forehead. She asked him to pretend to be retarded, but she didn't ask him to pretend to be paralyzed.
She lifted her leg and kicked Yao Anmian's butt. Since this reason didn't work, she had to use the old trick.
Ye Zi took out her police ID from her backpack and said to Nuns seriously, "I'm a police officer from the Municipal Crime Squad. This is my police ID."
Nuns frowned and looked at the police ID in Ye Zi's hand. "Officer, what's the matter?"
"I want to see the director of the orphanage." Ye Zi put away the fake police ID and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Officers, please follow me." The nun did not suspect anything. She turned her body sideways and gestured for them to follow.
Ye Zi and Yao An looked at each other and followed Nuns into the orphanage.
The director of the orphanage was a Nuns in her fifties. With Nuns's introduction, the director was polite to Ye Zi and Yao An. "Please sit down."
