Chapter 64: Chapter 64: Officer, I Want to Turn Myself In!
This scene was prearranged.
This scene is also Chen Xiao’s deliberate calculation against Xi Yian’s unintentional oblivion!
The reason is none other, Chen Xiao was awakened by Luo Dali.
Although it was just a dream of Luo Dali’s, to Chen Xiao, it was sothing he had personally experienced!
Who is the dark figure?
The dark figure is the murderer!
Chen Xiao had asked himself, if the suspect were Su Jing or Su Ting, or even both sisters, how could they have possibly skinned Su Haidong alive?
Their frail bodies were insufficient to subdue the physically strong Su Haidong.
So, there must be soone strong behind them!
But that person would need an absolute motive; otherwise, why would he kill Su Haidong?
When Si Ying’s body was found in Li Ruoi’s coffin, Xi Yian’s suspicion beca enormous.
Even when Xi Yian beca a suspect, many things beca more reasonable.
Because he was the person who loved Si Ying the most in the world, he was timid in front of Si Ying, not daring to take a step forward.
But when sothing happened to Si Ying, he would definitely be the craziest person!
But in Chen Xiao’s past life, the Swallow Lane fishbone case was one of the few unsolved cases in Dongzhou City that had not been solved for over a decade!
What does this indicate?
It indicates that the murderer of the fishbone case was extrely frenzied when he killed but unusually calm in his mind.
Why could he remain so calm?
Because his goal was not to kill but to find Si Ying!
Before Si Ying was found, his mind was never relaxed for even a mont!
Now that Si Ying was found, the tension in Xi Yian’s heart had relaxed!
So after getting in the car, Chen Xiao sent a ssage to Liang Yan, arranging this encounter!
He felt that this encounter would likely cause a massive reaction.
Because whatever Xi Yian did, there would be issues.
Should he directly recognize Su Jing and Su Ting, or pretend not to see them?
If he recognized them directly, what would his reaction be?
As for pretending not to see, that was sothing Chen Xiao did not want to see. If he did so, it would show that his thought process was sowhat rational.
Dealing with a rational person is always more troubleso.
Chen Xiao still supported Xi Yian, who remained in a daze.
But in a face-to-face encounter, Xi Yian would still instinctively look up.
When he saw Su Jing and Su Ting, Chen Xiao dared not move his gaze at all.
He wanted to notice everyone’s reactions!
However, to his surprise, it was Su Ting who reacted first!
When she saw Xi Yian, she stopped in her tracks at once, then slightly furrowed her brows as if pondering sothing.
Then, Su Ting exclaid, "Uncle Xi, what’s wrong?!"
Imdiately, Su Jing widened her eyes, her body trembling uncontrollably.
Chen Xiao noted all these reactions, then turned to look at Xi Yian beside him.
However, Xi Yian’s legs went soft, and his eyes seed to be controlled, staring at Su Jing.
From those eyes, Chen Xiao couldn’t discern any specific emotion because it was too complex.
Xi Yian seed to want to cry!
But he also seed very happy!
His Adam’s apple moved up and down several tis, as if desperately swallowing sothing.
Chen Xiao imdiately gave Liang Yan a look, and the latter turned to Su Ting and asked, "Do you know each other?"
With a puzzled expression, Su Ting nodded and said, "Yes, Uncle Xi is a friend of a very beautiful and gentle auntie I know."
Upon hearing this, Xi Yian displayed a smile, regaining so composure, and said, "Yes, Si Ying used to like her very much, and so did Xiao Jing."
Liang Yan pretended to be enlightened, while Chen Xiao told Liang Yan, "Did Captain Zhang tell you? They found a highly suspicious body of Si Ying in Li Ruoi’s coffin at the Ancestral Tomb Mountain in Sha Xi Village."
This sentence was the real bomb!
A barrage of bombs that could cause a massive blow to Su Jing!
Sure enough, when the na Sha Xi Village was ntioned, Su Jing’s body seed unable to hold up.
When she heard that a highly suspicious body of Si Ying was found in Li Ruoi’s coffin, Su Jing could no longer support herself and collapsed to the ground.
Seeing her reaction, Xi Yian perhaps felt powerless or pained and closed his eyes.
Only Su Ting remained puzzled, "What do you an? Isn’t Li Ruoi my mom? They found Auntie Si Ying’s body in my mom’s coffin? Is that what you an?"
Chen Xiao nodded, and Su Ting was completely in a daze, "How could this be? Didn’t Uncle Xi say Auntie Si Ying went abroad? Why would she be in my mom’s coffin? This is impossible!"
As Su Ting questioned emotionally, Su Jing clenched her fists, and although Xi Yian maintained his composure, his eyes had already betrayed him.
Chen Xiao could clearly sense the shock they were experiencing internally.
Their uncontrollable anger and astonishnt were all because the thod of disposing of Si Ying’s body was so perfect and unexpected!
Chen Xiao gave Liang Yan another look, indicating to her that this orchestrated encounter should end here.
Understanding his signal, Liang Yan held one hand on each of them and said, "Su Jing and Su Ting, Captain Zhang will soon bring the body back to the team. Please co with
to rest for a while."
Su Jing did not respond, still trapped in her thoughts.
Su Ting was very reluctant, constantly looking at Xi Yian, seemingly still wanting so answers. But Liang Yan, unperturbed, forcibly took them away.
After they left, Chen Xiao looked directly at Xi Yian, "Shall we also find a place to rest and wait in peace?"
Xi Yian raised his head, his eyes still complex but different from before.
Nodding silently, Xi Yian and Chen Xiao walked into a lounge together.
During the waiting period, Chen Xiao didn’t speak, and Xi Yian also remained silent.
Yet Chen Xiao kept watching Xi Yian, who was deep in thought, with his hands tightly clasped as if contemplating sothing.
After more than ten minutes had passed, Xi Yian suddenly looked up and said, "How long will it take to confirm the identity of the female corpse?"
"It shouldn’t take long, maybe a few hours."
"How likely do you think it is that it’s Si Ying?"
"I don’t know, because I can’t find Su Haidong’s motive for killing Si Ying. I know he had so quirks, but I also know he definitely wouldn’t kill just out of lust." Chen Xiao replied.
Xi Yian took a deep breath and then exhaled slowly, as if a tightly held secret had finally relaxed.
However, before Xi Yian could speak, Liang Yan knocked on the door of the lounge.
Liang Yan stood at the door and said to Chen Xiao, "The identification of Su Jing, Su Ting, and Su Haidong as relatives has been completed. Neither is Su Haidong’s child! The hospital also found Su Haidong’s dical records, showing he was infertile."
This answer didn’t surprise Chen Xiao, as he knew it wasn’t intended for him, or it wouldn’t have been said in front of Xi Yian.
Sure enough, after listening to Liang Yan, Xi Yian slowly leaned back on the chair and said word by word, "Officer Liang, I... want to surrender!"
