Chapter 68: Chapter 68: I’ve Been So Terribly Deceived!

Neither Zhang Xian nor Lin Xi could make sense of Chen Xiao’s reaction.

"What newbie or veteran? Are you referring to Xi Yian?" Zhang Xian asked outright.

Chen Xiao nodded: "That’s right, Xi Yian ntioned to

that he went abroad with Zhong Kai to look for Si Ying; Zhong Kai is still abroad. I called Zhong Kai last night, but during the call, I had a nagging feeling that sothing was off."

"At first, I didn’t catch on; I thought that’s just how his voice was. But when you told

that Xi Yian had done voice-over work, it suggests that it was likely Xi Yian who answered the call last night!"

"And the number I’m calling now must be the one Xi Yian and Zhong Kai registered together abroad, and they already activated the permission to make dostic calls when they did. The cost is definitely steep, but compared to security, what’s a little financial loss?"

"Now, the call goes through but no one answers. When Xi Yian was arrested, his phone was seized, only a SIM card was found. Which ans, when I t him at Si Ying’s house last night, he probably hid another phone before I arrived!"

As soon as Chen Xiao finished speaking, Zhang Xian decisively ordered, "In that case, leave the other phone to , and I’ll let you handle Xi Yian!"

"Alright!"

At this point, Chen Xiao shook off any hesitations and went straight to find Xi Yian.

The latter was temporarily held in the interrogation room, and as Chen Xiao entered, fatigue bloodshot Xi Yian’s eyes, but the turmoil in his mind kept him from resting.

Seeing Chen Xiao arrive, Xi Yian forced a smile.

"Mr. Chen, we et again."

Chen Xiao remained serious, placing his phone on the table, he said, "Xi Yian, Captain Zhang has gone to Swallow Lane to look for your other phone. That phone can still receive calls, so no matter where you tossed it in Swallow Lane, Zhang Xian will track it down by its sound."

Xi Yian’s face dramatically changed, but soon he raised his thumb, his expression full of admiration as he said, "Remarkable, truly remarkable! Now thinking back, losing to you, Chen Xiao, is not unjust at all! First Zhong Kai, then Su Haidong, so when I’m executed, I’ll still have no regrets."

"Indeed, whether it’s your narrative or the data we’ve managed to gather in limited ti, there’s no reason Zhong Kai should have died. He was killed because at the beginning of Si Ying’s disappearance, you suspected he was involved, didn’t you?"

Xi Yian nodded: "That’s right, at first, Si Ying personally called her parents to confirm she would go abroad. So, at that ti, I didn’t suspect anything happened to her. It was later when I couldn’t reach her that I started suspecting Zhong Kai was involved."

"So, fueled by suspicion, I found Zhong Kai and invited him to go abroad with

to look for Si Ying. However, when I suggested it, Zhong Kai hesitated! His hesitation seed like evasion and concealnt to . But later, he agreed to go overseas with , and I was purely curious to see what tricks he was up to!"

"Carrying such emotions, I went with him to a country in Southeast Asia, and as Si Ying’s disappearance prolonged, my frustration grew. On a certain night, I couldn’t bear it any longer and restrained him, interrogating him about Si Ying’s whereabouts using the sa thods. But that night, I realized I had suspected the wrong person!"

"However, once that step is taken, it’s irretrievable. So, after killing Zhong Kai, I returned to the country with his SIM card and impersonated him to keep in touch with his family. I suppose you know what my expertise is by now."

Xi Yian concluded with the exact tone used during the call.

Chen Xiao sneered, "Those who understand sound are indeed odd creatures."

Xi Yian shrugged, "Whether odd or not, it shouldn’t matter now, right? After all, killing one is death, killing two is still death; what’s done is done, I can’t bring them back to life."

"That is brutally honest, but what’s the point of protecting Su Jing or Su Ting? Do you really understand those sisters?"

Chen Xiao interrogated Xi Yian, who imdiately frowned, responding without thinking, "What protection? Why would I protect them? What do they have to do with !"

"Still insisting? Fine, I can tell you now, the night Su Haidong was killed, soone went to the kitchen outside Swallow Lane number 506! And that person wasn’t anyone but my closest friend!"

Upon hearing this, Xi Yian jumped up, his face filled with panic, he shouted, "Impossible! If soone went to Swallow Lane number 506 the night Su Haidong was killed, they absolutely couldn’t have left Swallow Lane alive!"

The reason behind Luo Dali’s murder, truth unveiled!

He wasn’t killed for thwarting the murderer; he saw sothing he shouldn’t have and was silenced!

But why didn’t Su Haidong die in the previous life?

Chen Xiao didn’t need to ask, because he knew there would be answers!

Looking at Xi Yian’s incredulous expression, Chen Xiao continued, "Indeed, due to certain special reasons, he was fortunate not to be discovered by you. Because of him, I’ve never ceased doubting Su Jing. But Xi Yian, I hope you’ll look at sothing here, and after you finish, you can continue to be shocked and angry."

Chen Xiao said, taking out Teacher Sun’s husband’s notebook from his pocket, he opened the Chapter titled "Tree" for Xi Yian to see.

At first, Xi Yian didn’t understand what Chen Xiao ant by showing him an article, but when he finished reading and noticed the byline, his eyes bulged, mouth agape, body trembling uncontrollably.

Such reactions were exactly what Chen Xiao wanted.

Seizing Xi Yian’s speechlessness, Chen Xiao pressed further: "Quite shocking, isn’t it? Hard to believe this is the true face of soone you admired to the point of sacrificing yourself to protect them!"

"That’s wrong, how could this article be written by Xiaoting? She clearly loathes Su Haidong, I’ve seen her tear up ntioning Su Haidong on more than one occasion!"

Xi Yian seed to ignore Chen Xiao’s words, incessantly shaking his head, denying repeatedly.

Even the hand clutching the notebook had veins protruding!

Chen Xiao provoked further: "You can disguise your voice, can’t others disguise as well? Can’t she feign intimacy with you or your group, then spring the trap to ensnare all of you? In such a scenario, she’d be achieving great rit, and her father would see her in a new light!"

As Chen Xiao spoke these words himself, he seed to understand why Su Haidong in the previous life didn’t die!

Was it not due to Su Ting sabotaging again and again?

But why did Xi Yian succeed the night of the cri scene?

This question just crossed his mind, and suddenly Chen Xiao had the answer: Su Ting had a perfect alibi because she couldn’t attend the cri scene, she was truly ill that night!

In her absence, Xi Yian and Su Jing successfully slaughtered Su Haidong!

When Chen Xiao pieced everything together, Xi Yian lifted his head again.

His already weary eyes now riddled with bloodshot veins, and his face was grotesquely horrid.

Gazing at him, Chen Xiao solemnly stated, "Xi Yian, there are reporters waiting outside the police station for the truth, it’s ti you made your choice!"

"Ha~~"

Xi Yian followed with a cold sneer, fists clenched, blood tears even trickled from the corners of his eyes.

"I’ve been gravely deceived!"
