Chapter 8: Death Loop

up. I feel a little dizzy."Jiang Yunbai didn't know what she was thinking and didn't refuse Gu Yan."Well, it's normal to have low blood pressure when you stand up. Just be careful next time, after al...Then he leisurely picked up the takeout green pepper and pork stir-fry.

“Bruises on Wang Yue's hands and feet indicate that she was bound alive before her death. At the very least, it happened while she was still living.”

Zhou Yu calmly said a word and picked up a pair of stir-fried green peppers with meat.

“Furthermore, I didn't find any defensive wounds or other injuries on Wang Yue's body. There wasn't even a needle prick mark. I also tested her blood and found no traces of suspicious drugs. This means that Wang Yue was killed while conscious. The murderer had a clear physical advantage over her, and it's very likely that the perpetrator was male.”

He is still a strong man.

Zhou Yu gazed approvingly at Song Ming.

Then he quickly bowed his head and ate.

"According to Team Chen, the two men in black seen on the surveillance footage are highly suspect."

Chen Xiaobo didn't respond, but instead continued to push the stir-fried green pepper and meat towards Zou Yu.

Are there any other suspicious points about Wang Yue

"Well, there's still another one."

Zou Yu swallowed the food in his mouth and took a breath.

Little Xu went to pour a bowl of soup for Dr. Zou.

But shortly after, Zou Yu took the bowl of soup from Xiao Xu's hand and drank it all in one gulp.

“This chili is a little spicy, huh.”

Zou Yu wiped his mouth and continued.

"Wang Yue was stabbed three times in the abdomen, though none of the wounds were fatal. Only the femoral artery in her left leg was severed."

"So you're saying the killer only needed to cut the femoral artery once and there was no need to stab him three times in the abdomen"

"The killer most likely has a medical background or works in a related field. The three stab wounds to the abdomen were probably just a distraction."

Song Ming shook his head.

"I think it's too far-fetched. We said before that the murderer killed Wang Yue because they had grievances against her. Maybe those three stab wounds were just the murderer venting their anger and not wanting Wang Yue to die too easily."

The reasoning has reached a dead end once again.

Zhou Yu meticulously dug through the already-cleaned plate of green pepper stir-fried meat.

Jiang Yunbai opened the software, scanned the code, and entered the subway gate.

Gu Yan learned the gesture and followed closely behind.

"Well, let me check the map... You wait here at Shui Xie Gong station and then transfer to Line 5 at..."

Gu Yan reached out and touched Jiang Yunbai's head.

"Got it."

Jiang Yunbai shook off Gu Yan's hand.

Isn't this worrying about him getting on the wrong bus

Because it was already getting late, there weren't many people on the train.

"Xiaobai, I'm sorry for what happened before."

Jiang Yunbai looked at the man beside her and asked a question that had nothing to do with the situation.

"Why do you call me Xiaobai"

Gu Yan said without thinking.

"It just felt so natural and familiar, so I called out."

Jiang Yunbai spread out her right hand.

Looking at the fine scars on her middle and pinky fingers.

But in the blink of an eye, Jiang Yunbai realized that the man who had been talking to him just moments ago was already drowsy.

Jiang Yunbai watched as Gu Yan swayed back and forth in the carriage.

“Gu Yan, what am I supposed to do with you.”

Jiang Yunbai reached out and gently pulled Gu Yan's head onto her shoulder.

Then, Gu Yan had arrived at his stop before Jiang Yun Bai woke him up.

Afterward, fearing he would oversleep again, Jiang Yunbai decided to accompany him on the subway.

Only when he got to the station exit did he realize he had taken the wrong way and had to go back.

"I'm sorry to have you worry so much about me and escort me home."

Jiang Yunbai and Gu Yan smiled at each other.

Waving goodbye as Gu Yan boarded the train.

The smile on Jiang Yùn's face had long since vanished.

When Jiang Yunbai returned home, his mother was still waiting for him in the living room as usual.

"Xiaobai, did you go out to play with Xiaogu today"

Jiang Yùn Bái saw the big bag of shopping bags on the tea table and knew immediately who had betrayed her.

Gu Yan's driver team works in 24-hour shifts and has always been efficient.

Just as Jiang Yunbai thought her mother would surely take this opportunity to persuade her to get back together with Gu Yan...

But Jiang Mu simply confirmed Jiang Yunbai's schedule for today and then went back to her room to sleep with a cup of water.

Jiang Yunbai tilted her head, looking at the closed door, seeming to not understand.

Suddenly, the door opened again.

Jiang Yunbai immediately showed an expression of "as expected."

"Mom and...."

"I'm a little hungry, could you pick out some tasty snacks for me"

Jiang Yùn widened her eyes and looked at her mother.

"Mother Jiang urged her daughter who stood motionless, "

"

"Little White, hurry up! Mommy is starving to death."

Jiang Yunbai opened the white shopping bag and picked out a pack of cookies from inside, handing it to her mother.

After receiving the cookies, Jiang's mother immediately shut the door to her room.

"Goodnight to you too."

In the room ——

Jiang Yunbai changed into her pajamas and sat on the bed, opening her phone.

—Courtesy of Gu Yan.

I'm home.

Jiang Yunbai replied with "I'm home too" and then switched off her phone.

Then he picked up a book about psychology from the bedside table and started reading it.

Actually, if you look closely, you'll find that Jiang Yunbai's bookshelf not only has medical textbooks but also a comparable number of psychology and suspense thriller books.

Actually, Jiang Yunbai was interested in psychology back then.

If it weren't for her livelihood, she should have studied psychology.

But Jiang Yunbai dared not risk his future with a family already on shaky ground.

Take the gamble on that one in a thousand chance of success.

Prove that you are talented.

Then they lived on meager wages.

He didn't seem to have looked for very long.

Jiang Yunbai glanced at the time and put the book back in its place, preparing to go to sleep.

Just then, Jiang Yun Bai saw the photo album on the bedside table.

There is a family of three in the photo.

There is no doubt that the people appearing in this photo are definitely Jiang Yunbai's family.

Only to see Jiang Yunbai reach out and touch the photo album, which was already covered in a thin layer of ash.

........

The next day.

"Yesterday, didn't Team Chen just say the murderer was a male Why are they going to ask Wang Yue's stepmother today"

Chen Xiaobo turned around, pointed at Xiao Xu's nose, then sighed and put his hand down.

"Qin Yuezhen, you and I will go on a business trip."

Xiao Xu grabbed Qin Yuezhen who was passing by.

"Brother Xu, do you think it's possible that someone was hired to commit the murder"

Xiao Xu's face was twisted, he could only squeeze out two words.

"Is that so"

Then, back in the office area, Xiao Xu went up to Song Ming's side.

Team Chen went to ask Wang Yue's stepmother for information. You said that Wang Yue's father hasn't had another child in all these years. Could it be that Wang Yue's stepmother is actually a zero

Song Ming looked at Xiao Xu with a sinister gaze.

"That's weird."

Wang Family Residence.

"Hello, Mrs. Wang. My name is Captain Chen Xiaobo from the Jingjiang City Criminal Police Brigade. Here is my ID card."

Chen Xiaobo's Wang Tai-Tai is a woman in her thirties.

But she just looks like a girl in her twenties who's lost a bit of her youthful sparkle.
