Chapter 91: Chapter 91: There Must Be a Story Between Them!

When Chen Xiao finished speaking, Hu Yue paused for a second, then his face was full of shock.

He knew too well the significance of what Chen Xiao had said.

Once it’s confird that the murderer wanted Qin Zhao to see who was killing him before he died.

Then, nearly eighty percent of the previous investigation of this case could be overturned!

The key person in the whole case would no longer be Guo Ning, but Qin Zhao!

If it wasn’t him, then why would the murderer bother to make sure he saw who killed him?

Hu Yue was so shocked that he couldn’t speak; he had received a call from Guo Zhengchang.

He also knew what inferences Chen Xiao had made!

One of them was overturning the previous investigation centered around Guo Ning!

Although Hu Yue felt a refreshing sense when he heard it, the uniqueness of Guo Ning made him feel the case might still be deeply connected with her.

But now, he was wavering.

Especially after recalling the demonstration Chen Xiao had just shown, Hu Yue began to lean toward Chen Xiao’s theory.

But he didn’t know what Chen Xiao was thinking at the mont.

Because even with such speculation, he couldn’t be one hundred percent sure. But if he had a test subject, he could co to a foolproof conclusion!

But could such an experint be conducted?

It couldn’t be done!

He can’t learn from the murderer and break soone’s neck, can he?

Chen Xiao took a deep breath, constantly reminding himself: "What you have gained is the understanding of the power of killing, not the actual power to kill, control yourself!"

With this warning to himself, Chen Xiao dismissed all those chaotic thoughts from his mind.

Clearing his thoughts, Chen Xiao took a flashlight from a police officer and approached the jar containing Jin ng’s body.

After putting on a pair of gloves, Chen Xiao’s hand rested on Jin ng’s neck.

She was killed by being stabbed through the neck with a knife.

The murder weapon had long been extracted, but when Chen Xiao’s fingers touched the terrifying wound, a scene seed to play out in his mind at that mont.

In a silent mountain forest, Jin ng, clad in casual clothes, was alone.

Her gaze wandered around in confusion, as if she was calling out to her companions.

Yet, nearby, a pair of cold eyes were fixedly staring at her.

When she approached those eyes, the person suddenly lunged and pinned her to the ground.

Before Jin ng could resist, the cold sharp knife had already pierced through her neck.

At that mont, Jin ng definitely wasn’t dead.

Her body seed to struggle a bit, but unfortunately, she couldn’t struggle for long before her vision rapidly blurred.

The scene vanished.

Chen Xiao withdrew his hand from Jin ng’s neck.

The scene just now was entirely constructed under the power of construction.

He wouldn’t tell anyone about the content of the vision because it could only be considered imagination.

Chen Xiao bent down and whispered sothing into Hu Yue’s ear before turning to leave the cellar.

A curious detective from Qingxi asked, "Captain Hu, what did Chen Xiao just say?"

"Nothing, he’s gone to find Yu Gui."

The curious policen nodded and didn’t ask further.

Soon, Chen Xiao appeared at Yu Gui’s house.

Yu Gui’s parents were sitting in the living room, both in a daze.

The only difference was, while in a daze, Yu Gui’s mother was also shedding tears.

Chen Xiao knocked on the door, and Yu Gui’s parents turned their heads simultaneously.

Seeing it was Chen Xiao, Yu Gui’s mother imdiately stood up.

Yesterday in the room, his mother had also seen Chen Xiao’s gestures, and thus had heard what Yu Gui said afterward.

"Boss Chen, you’ve co."

His mother didn’t ask why he had co, evidently thinking that with the appearance of Jin ng and Qin Zhao, Chen Xiao would eventually co to their house.

Chen Xiao slightly nodded, "Hmm, how is Yu Gui doing now?"

"He was not doing well today, but after hearing that Jin ng and Qin Zhao were found, he seed to recover a bit. But he’s still lying in bed, not speaking and just shedding tears."

Chen Xiao knew what Yu Gui was sad about.

An old saying goes, one must see people alive or see their corpse when dead.

When Jin ng and Qin Zhao were missing, no matter how cruelly reality implied their deaths, as long as their bodies weren’t found, those who cared about them would harbor so hope.

Now that the bodies were found, Jin ng and Qin Zhao could never co back to life.

This was another heavy blow for Yu Gui.

Chen Xiao walked into the room where Ye Xiu was whispering sothing to Yu Gui by the bed.

Seeing Chen Xiao, Ye Xiu looked relieved and said, "Brother Chen Xiao, you’re finally here. Talk to Brother Gui. He’s been silent since the news about Brother Qin Zhao ca."

Chen Xiao sat by the bed, looking at the very distressed Yu Gui: "Has every last hope been shattered, leaving you in despair?"

Yu Gui, with so effort, turned his head and looked over.

Chen Xiao didn’t respond, just pointed to the two blood-written words on the pillow: "Alive."

Yu Gui’s eyes seed to regain so focus, and Chen Xiao continued, "If what you wrote still stands, I have a few questions. If you can speak, do so; if not, respond by blinking or closing your eyes."

"Okay." Yu Gui opened his mouth, his voice accompanied by a phlegm-laden gurgle.

"Did Qin Zhao have any conflicts with anyone after coming to Xiaofeng Village? Although I don’t know him, I heard from Guo Ning’s grandfather that his conduct wasn’t very good."

Yu Gui: "No."

"Did he have none, or did everyone have no conflicts with anyone?"

"No one did."

"Second question, who do you think could have overheard the night’s conversation between your mother and Guo Ning?"

Yu Gui: "I... I can’t answer that. Anyone could have, but how could they kill soone?"

"Give

a na."

"My cousins, my uncles, any of them could have. They... they were curious about Guo Ning and her family, so... it’s possible."

Yu Gui spoke in fragnts, but Chen Xiao didn’t get the answers he needed from these two questions.

After pondering, Chen Xiao asked again: "Did you know Qin Zhao wanted to pursue Guo Ning?"

Yu Gui blinked to show that he knew.

"Then do you think it’s possible that Qin Zhao was the one eavesdropping outside?"

Yu Gui’s eyes widened suddenly, about to retort when Chen Xiao called toward the door: "Yu Gui’s father, could you please fetch your elder brother, or take

to his house?"

Yu Gui’s father replied, "I’ll go get him."

Chen Xiao nodded, then turned back to Yu Gui: "Actually, Qin Zhao might have eavesdropped. That day, he and Song Zhen drank too much and were sent to your uncle’s house."

"But is it possible that Qin Zhao woke up in the middle of the night? If he did, he might have wandered back to find Guo Ning, half-dazed."

After Chen Xiao finished speaking, Ye Xiu chid in: "But Brother Qin Zhao is also dead."

Ye Xiu’s point was simple: when Guo Ning was found dead, she had a red veil on her head, corresponding precisely to the conversation between her and Mrs. Yu.

If Qin Zhao had overheard it and executed it, then Qin Zhao would be the murderer.

But Qin Zhao is also dead now!

Surely, he couldn’t have shared that information with soone else, right?

Chen Xiao didn’t respond to Ye Xiu, but continued to ask: "Last question, did Qin Zhao know or make new acquaintances in Xiaofeng Village or Nanqiao Town?"

"No, why do you ask?"

Chen Xiao replied: "Because when the killer murdered Qin Zhao, they wanted him to see who they were! So there has to be a story between Qin Zhao and the murderer!"
