“Do you rember this person?” i Shu showed her a photo of Zhou Nan.
Liu Lan glanced at it and quickly shook her head, “I don’t know him, I’ve never seen him before.”
“Take another look.” i Shu handed the phone to her.
Liu Lan avoided eye contact as if trying to escape, “1 haven’t seen him, really haven’t. Miss i, do you have other matters?”
i Shu lowered her gaze, looking at Liu Lan’s feet under the table that were already slightly turned outward. She could tell that Liu Lan wanted to escape. She took back her phone with a faint smile, “Mrs. Liu, you should know that if we have the ability to feed a piece of at to your husband, we certainly have the ability to make him spit it out. Now, let ask you again, did you or did you not see him?”
Upon hearing this, Liu Lan was startled at first. Then, she lowered her head hesitantly and responded with a mosquito-like hum, “I saw him, but we aren’t acquainted. We only t once!”
i Shu smiled satisfactorily, “How did you et, and what happened that day? Tell everything you know.”
Liu Lan hesitated for a mont, about to speak, when suddenly, the man across the table made a nearly adorable whimper.
i Shu stiffened all over. The hatred in her eyes from before disappeared, replaced by an indelible tenderness. “What’s wrong?”
Lu Si opened his mouth, wanting to say sothing. However, it was apparent that he recalled i Shu’s warning and closed his mouth again, looking sowhat forlorn as he stared at a dish on the table.
i Shu understood instantly and quickly served him so of the dish.
Lu Si imdiately showed a happy expression and happily started eating.
Liu Lan, watching in astonishnt, couldn’t help but ask, “What’s wrong with him? Why isn’t he speaking?”
Lu Si gave her a resentful glare.
i Shu quickly changed the subject, “Continue talking about what happened earlier.”
Liu Lan thought for a while, then replied, “Actually, I only had a chance encounter with him. At that ti, the manor needed temporary workers, and he ca to apply for the job, working for just a day before wanting to settle the accounts and leave.”
“How much did you pay him?” i Shu asked casually.
Liu Lan quickly answered, “Two hundred! That was the price the manager set, and the work wasn’t heavy; it was just temporary help, so we didn’t pay too much.”
i Shu continued eating while asking, “This person appeared at the manor for just one day six years ago. How do you still rember him even now?”
Hearing this, Liu Lan tensed up, forcing a fake smile, “Isn’t it because sothing terrible happened near the manor the next day? So, 1 still have so impression.”
“Not just that, isn’t it?” i Shu said indifferently, “What else happened that day? 1 advise you to tell everything.”
Liu Lan stamred, “There’s really nothing else. I was just a finance manager at that ti. The person in charge of him was another person. 1 was just a payroll worker. I really don’t know much else.”
i Shu seed to have expected her to say that. She nodded casually and said, “Then tell why you suddenly resigned.”
“With such a serious car accident there, who would dare to work there?” Liu Lan didn’t lie this ti.
i Shu could see that, although she was hiding sothing, at least this statent was true.
Thinking of sothing, i Shu asked, “After the accident, did the police co to ask you questions?
“No.” Liu Lan averted her gaze unnaturally, trying to change the topic, and asked i Shu, “Miss i, what’s your relationship with the woman involved in the car accident? Why do you suddenly rember to ask about this after so many years?”
i Shu, under Lu Si’s eager gaze, handed him so snacks, “She was my mother.”
Liu Lan looked at her incredulously, “So that’s it! But wasn’t the car accident classified as an accident back then? What else can you investigate now? Do you suspect that your mother’s death is related to the man from earlier?”
i Shu stared at her directly, catching the trace of panic in her eyes that she couldn’t hide in ti. She then smirked with a touch of mockery, “Mrs. Liu, I think you probably know better than anyone what that man did back then.” “What do you an?” Liu Lan panicked, “Please don’t speak nonsense! I really don’t know anything! It’s been so many years, and now you want to investigate again, but it’s aningless!”
“Oh, really?”
i Shu pointed out the ti of the surveillance footage showing Bai Ling holding brake fluid in the parking lot and the ti Liu Lan transferred money to Zhou Nan. She fabricated, “Perhaps you don’t know, but my mother was actually in contact with at that ti. She told that she accidentally got burned by a man’s cigarette butt, but it wasn’t too serious. After treating the wound, she went to the parking lot to change the brake fluid. That man was Zhou Nan, and these two tis are so close.. Do you know what that implies?”
