Chapter 837: Chapter 465: Bloodstains on Water Sleeves (Part 3)
He gazed at the curtain, his eyes seemingly penetrating the thin veil, seeing the woman hidden within.
Clang!
Throwing the steel spike under the curtain, Yan Junze spoke in a deep voice: “I think I’ve found the person you’re looking for.”
“Where is he?” The woman inside imdiately asked.
Yan Junze gave a slight smile, “Answer a few questions for first, then I’ll tell you where he is.”
Silence fell behind the curtain.
About a minute later, she replied: “Ask.”
“What is your honorific and full na, young lady?” Yan Junze asked.
“I am Hongxiu, my family na from my husband is Lin.”
Yan Junze nodded, “Miss Hongxiu, the person you want to find is your husband, right? Hmm, at least you were lovers.”
“Exactly.” The voice behind the curtain asked: “Where is he…?”
“Let guess, if I’m wrong please forgive .” Yan Junze didn’t answer Hongxiu’s question, but continued on his own: “You’ve been performing on this pleasure boat for years, encountered nurous clients, but one day you unexpectedly t a young Master Lin, and you fell in love with him. This Young Master Lin was also talented, probably shared common interests with you in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting.”
There was a quiet silence behind the curtain. Hongxiu neither denied nor confird this.
Yan Junze continued: “You truly loved him, I believe, but he may not have loved you as much as you loved him. Perhaps, forgive for being blunt, he mostly just enjoyed your body. That period must have been the happiest ti of your life until the day the story ended, because you got pregnant.”
At this point, the curtain shook slightly, but still no sound ca out.
Yan Junze said, “This Young Master Lin definitely didn’t want the child, maybe he loved you, but he was more interested in just being with you casually, so he talked you into it. Loving him, you did as he said, and after giving birth to the child, you threw it into the river.”
“Of course, you just gave birth, alone you might not be able to do such things. So, you had her… handle all this, including cutting the umbilical cord, throwing the baby into the river.” Yan Junze pointed towards the swollen female corpse outside.
Turning back, looking again behind the curtain, “After you cleaned yourself up, made yourself look brand new, and then went to find Young Master Lin, you discovered everything had changed. He didn’t treat you the sa as before, he was even less familiar to you than a stranger, which made your anger and resentnt explode in that mont.”
“You cunningly devised a plan to lure Young Master Lin back onto the pleasure boat, sweet-talking him into spending one last night together.” As he spoke, Yan Junze glanced at the Water Sleeve Dress at the doorway, “Although Young Master Lin was not an opera singer, he loved singing opera, so this Water Sleeve Dress was actually his, and after he impulsively perford his final opera on this pleasure boat, you stabbed him with this steel spike multiple tis.”
At this point, the Water Sleeve Dress stained with blood holes began to tremble gently.
“Strange enough, I haven’t been able to fish up Young Master Lin’s corpse.” Yan Junze continued: “So I speculate, his body may not have fallen into the water, what fell into the water were just the steel spike, the Water Sleeve Dress, your child, and the maid, the one you killed afterwards to silence her. And Young Master Lin’s body…”
At this mont, Yan Junze suddenly leaned forward, reaching out to lift the curtain.
Behind the curtain, not far away, was an exquisitely beautiful bed, but at this mont the bed appeared extrely filthy, and the bedding emitted a strong foul sll.
A small, emaciated figure with patchy hair and ulcerated skin was sitting on the edge of the bed. Calling it a figure, for its gender was indistinguishable by appearance alone.
And this person, was indeed Hongxiu.
Her abdon was grotesquely swollen, bursting through her clothing, completely disproportionate to her naturally petite fra, her fingerless hands baldly resting on her legs, her hollow gaze staring at Yan Junze at the other side of the curtain, expressionless.
Yan Junze withdrew his gaze from her belly, sighed softly, and said: “His body has been with you ever since you killed yourself. Even before you died, you two had already been together forever. This… is the result you’ve desperately sought!”
Pausing montarily, a cold smirk appeared on Yan Junze’s face, “Can one really love another to this extent?”
Hongxiu slowly lowered her head, shifting her gaze to her excessively swollen abdon, seemingly surprised, sowhat bewildered, she licked the corners of her mouth.
She licked up a piece of flesh.
Suddenly having a mont of realization, she painfully split her mouth, tears slowly streaming down.
