Chapter 18 Women tell the story of madness like strong wine

Luo Sai's expression became solemn. He really didn't want Xu Huanyan and Fan Li to be involved, but judging from the current situation, they were the most suspicious.

"If Xu Huanyan avenges her daughter, then Fan Li will most likely help her. He is cautious and will probably not leave any clues to the police. Tomorrow I will go find Fan Li to find out the truth. As for Zhao Yingtong -"

"As for your relationship with Fan Li, I can explain it to the police station."

Qi Xuan frowned and concentrated, his eyes flowing. He looked at Rousey, his eyes showing vigilance and doubt , " If our suspicion is right, what are you going to do?"

Rossay licked his lips, held the handlebars tightly with both hands, thought for a while, and said firmly , " No matter what he has done before, I will never cover him if he takes the wrong path."

They looked at each other, in the dim light and shadow, and smiled at the same time.

The next morning, Zhao Yingtong welcomed the clerk from the Pearl Hotel's finance department in the office. The donation from the Pearl Hotel arrived as scheduled, which somewhat eased the pain caused to Zhao Yingtong by not sleeping all night.

He and Xiao Zhou stayed up late at night, trying to find out the truth from the clues they knew. However, Jiang Yuan's case seemed ordinary, but it was very difficult to solve. From their analysis, Jiang Yuan did not go home after get off work. Instead, he came to the riverside for some reason and was shot dead later. Whether it was premeditated or a sudden incident is unknown. The property Jiang Yuan brought with him was not lost. It is unreasonable to kill someone for money. If it is a vendetta, then their top priority is to find the source of the hatred.

So at dawn, Zhao Yingtong sent two police officers to look for witnesses, trying to find who Jiang Yuan was with that night.

After the clerk sorted out the donation matters, he handed a letter to Zhao Yingtong before leaving.

When I took it and looked at it, the envelope read: Personally signed by Inspector Zhao.

"Manager Qi asked me to deliver this letter on his behalf. He said that the content in the letter is related to Jiang Yuan's case and is very important." After that, he turned and left.

Zhao Ying was confused and hurriedly took out the letter and started reading. It doesn't matter if I read this, I almost had a heart attack out of breath.

In the letter, Qi Xuan explained the relationship between Jiang Yuan and Wei Yingying, and pointed out the relationship between Xu Huanyan and Fan Li, and the fact that Fan Li was the president of the Mao Shadow Society. The letter was written concisely and at the end, I specifically expressed my apology for not telling the truth sooner.

But no matter how beautifully written this letter was, Zhao Yingtong would definitely roll up his arms and sleeves after reading it, wishing to punch Qi Xuan.

"You brat, it's too late to tell the truth now!"

Zhao Yingtong was so angry that he said to police officer Xiao Zhou , " And that Luo Sai, I see that he and Qi Xuan are flirting with each other, they must be covering up for each other! They are all pretending to be confused and let me light the lamp and boil the oil here. !”

He was so angry that he was sweating. He grabbed the letter, crumpled it into a ball, and threw it into the trash can.

Xiao Zhou didn't know what was written in the letter. He looked at Inspector Zhao blankly and asked , " Inspector, just now you asked me to go to Jiang Yuan's house to ask about the situation. Should I go?"

"Go, go right away! Their son killed another girl, and they didn't tell us about such a big thing. They are hiding everything, how can I find out?"

Zhao Yingtong picked up the teacup and drank to his heart's content, and then ordered Xiao Zhou to go to Jiang Yuan's house immediately to learn about Jiang Yuan and Wei Yingying's situation. He rushed to Xu Huanyan's house as quickly as possible, racing against time, hoping to find some clues.

However, Zhao Yingtong was still a step too late.

Just when the dawn was just breaking out on the horizon, at Xu Huanyan's house, she suppressed her tiredness and poured a cup of tea for Fan Li who came to visit.

Fan Li was not surprised at all when he saw Xu Huanyan wearing a nightgown, with a haggard face, messy hair, and a listless and lazy look. After all, Xu Huanyan had just lost her dependent daughter, and Xu Huanyan's behavior could be considered restrained.

As soon as he entered the house, Fan Li noticed the changes in Xu Huanyan's home. He had been here before, and there were many works of art in the living room, which were the favorites of Xu Huanyan's late husband. But now, those things are gone. The nanny originally employed by the family has also disappeared, and now Xu Huanyan is the only one living in the room.

Fan Li curiously asked where those people and things had gone. Xu Huanyan sat on the sofa with bare feet and smiled.

"Everyone has been laid off, and those bottles and cans, which I have never liked anyway, have been sold." She said, picking up a cup of tea and bringing it to her mouth, "Don't worry, I know you like calligraphy and painting, those I Keep them all, take whatever you like."

Fan Li nodded, pushed up his glasses, and looked at the empty wine bottles piled on the table. He couldn't help but worry , " Have you eaten in the past few days? Or are you just drinking?"

"I like to drink, you know. Drinking a lot is harmful to the body, drinking less is pleasant. Now that I am alone, it is understandable that I drink some wine to relieve my boredom."

"Can you clean such a big house by yourself?"

Xu Huanyan laughed loudly, and her eyes, which were dim just now, suddenly brightened up , " Is it difficult? I have been very capable of working since I was a child. Don't look at the hardships I have endured despite living the life of a young mistress these years. , you have been through all the hardships and followed me. If you are worried that I can't take care of myself, then you will waste your energy. I am an ant on the ground, with strong vitality. As long as there is a chance of survival, I will not fall easily. "

When she said these words, she looked straight ahead. What Fan Li felt from her expression was not encouragement, but greater worry. This woman is beautiful and brave, and she should not be ravaged by fate until she ends up on the road to destruction. Now, she was standing on the edge of a cliff, with the possibility of falling at any time.

Fan Li looked solemn and remained silent. His silence made Xu Huanyan panic. So she got up and walked to the cabinet, turned on the radio, and a song was playing. She hummed to the melody, swayed slightly, and danced around the room.

Seeing Xu Huanyan immersed in the music leisurely and contentedly, Fan Li felt a touch of long-lost warmth. But he knew that there were some things he still had to say, even if it would destroy the short-term comfort and peace in front of him.

"Do you have a gun?" Fan Li asked.

These words were like a sharp knife piercing Xu Huanyan's heart, knocking her back to reality from her narcissism. She stopped, looked at the man in front of her who was both loved and hated with an indifferent expression, and said coldly , " Yes, it's in the drawer next to the bed."

In front of Fan Li, she had no intention of hiding anything. The gun was left by her deceased husband, and there was a box of bullets in the drawer, one of which had been shot into someone else's head.

"When I learned that Jiang Yuan's body appeared on the riverside, I guessed that it was you. You shouldn't be so cruel. Even if you have tons of hatred buried in your heart, you shouldn't send yourself into the abyss easily. You are destroying yourself, Huanyan, you are not venting your anger on Yingying, you are ruining your own life!"

"I am Yingying's mother! In this world, I am the only one who can sacrifice everything for her!"

"But what can you get in exchange for your sacrifice? Men like Jiang Yuan are everywhere in the streets. How many bullets do you have? How many can you kill? By doing this, you are just using the blood of others to pave the way for your own death. ! Stupid! Extremely stupid!”

Fan Li was full of anger, his arrogance was rising, and his powerful words full of male hormones echoed throughout the bedroom. He quickly walked to the bed and opened the first drawer of the bedside table, only to see a pistol and a small box containing bullets. He picked up the gun and bullets and put them in his coat pocket.

At this time, Xu Huanyan ran over and wanted to take the gun back from him.

"You can't take it away! Give it to me! Give it to me!"

Xu Huanyan suddenly jumped out of her leisurely mood and turned into a hysterical and crazy woman. She used all her strength to grab Fan Li's coat and pulled with him with disparity in strength. In the end, she was defeated amidst a frantic howl and was pushed down on the bed by Fan Li.

She grabbed the pillow and threw it at Fan Li, tears welling up in her eyes. Just like Fan Li said, she became a murderer. From the moment she decided to do this to the time she ended Jiang Yuan's life with her own hands and watched him fall, Xu Huanyan had no emotions of joy, anger, sorrow or joy. She was like a walking zombie, being controlled by someone, without any fear or regret. meaning. Her tense emotions were finally released in front of Fan Li. She slowly slipped from the bed and fell to the ground, sitting on the ground and crying bitterly.

"Time is running out and I need to know all the details. I must solve this matter before the police find clues."

Fan Li waited patiently for Xu Huanyan to calm down and asked her how she killed Jiang Yuan.

"Actually, I didn't plan carefully. That day, the more I thought about it, the angrier I became, so I took a gun, loaded it with bullets, and went to find Jiang Yuan."

Xu Huanyan came to where Jiang Yuan worked. She stood at the door without going in, just waiting stupidly. Soon she saw Jiang Yuan coming out after get off work, so she hid behind him and followed him quietly all the way. Jiang Yuan first went to a tailor shop, then to a bookstore, and then to the riverside. It was already dark by then. She saw Jiang Yuan leaning on the fishing boat on the riverside and smoking, so she walked over. Since she had met Jiang Yuan, Jiang Yuan recognized her as Wei Yingying's mother after sizing her up.

Just after Wei Yingying threw herself into Jiang for love, she went to Jiang Yuan and told him that Yingying was lying in the hospital in critical condition and hoped that he could go to the hospital to stay with Yingying. But Jiang Yuan refused. He couldn't face a woman who died for him, and he was so determined to separate from Yingying that he didn't want to wade into this muddy water at all.

Jiang Yuan seemed very nervous when he saw Xu Huanyan again. He didn't know that Yingying had passed away, so he asked about Yingying's situation. When Xu Huanyan saw Jiang Yuan's hypocritical face, she was filled with anger. Her resentment and despair made her take out her pistol and put it on Jiang Yuan's head without hesitation.

"I still remember saying to him at the end, 'You go stay with Yingying,' and then he collapsed."
