1588 Something Happened Again

Chi Shuyan received a call from Brother Feng and had a faint guess as to what he was talking about. She was worried about Qi Zhenbai at that moment, so how could she have time to go over? After thinking about it, Chi Shuyan asked, “Brother Feng, is it urgent? I think I have to go home first!” It would be hard for her to feel at ease if she didn’t go back and see the man.

Feng Yuanlin didn’t make things difficult for her. He said that someone had died, and asked her to come over as soon as she could later.

Since Brother Feng had said so, Chi Shuyan naturally agreed. She nodded and said, “Okay, Brother Feng. I’ll go home and then hurry over as soon as possible.”

“Okay… okay. Shuyan, just come over as soon as possible!” Feng Yuanlin said.

The call ended, and Chi Shuyan immediately took a taxi home. Unfortunately, the man on the bed had yet to wake up.

She carefully examined the man’s injuries inside and out. Unfortunately, as soon as she took his pulse, she was blocked by a huge black mist. She couldn’t learn anything, but she could still discern some things about his health. Apart from this huge, unidentified black mist, Qi Zhenbai’s body was fine.

But this black mist made her very uneasy. It was like a ticking time bomb that would destroy the man’s body at some point. This man had died early in her previous life and they hadn’t interacted then, so she didn’t know if this man’s physical condition was exactly the same in this life.

Would this man also die early in this life? Thinking this, Chi Shuyan’s heart turned cold. She regretted breaking up with this man back then and not treating him better. Why had she been so ruthless back then?

Chi Shuyan looked at him seriously as she reached out to touch his face. The more she looked, the softer her eyes became.

The man’s eyes were still closed and he didn’t wake up. Chi Shuyan could only get up and leave the villa. Before she left, she solemnly instructed Chef Li to let her know as soon as Qi Zhenbai woke up.

“Yes, Miss Shuyan!” Chef Li immediately nodded. He was quite surprised that Miss Shuyan was leaving again right after coming back.

Chi Shuyan nodded. Before she left, she thought of Jing Hengran and immediately asked after him. Chef Li said, “Miss Shuyan, Mr. Jing left early. He said that other things can be discussed after the contract is written up.”

Chi Shuyan nodded. “Okay!”

After leaving the villa, she took a taxi to the address Brother Feng sent her. It turned out that Brother Feng really had something urgent to discuss with her, since she arrived at a crime scene.

The scene had already been cordoned off by a large number of police officers, and there were also many people crowding around to watch and whisper in horror. It took Chi Shuyan a long time to find Brother Feng.

When Feng Yuanlin saw Shuyan, it really was like he was seeing his savior, and he was quite excited. “Shuyan, you came so quickly! That’s great!”

Chi Shuyan nodded at Brother Feng and looked around before she called out, “Brother Feng!”

“It’s good that you’re here. I’m afraid I need your help again this time. Do you have anything else on today?” Feng Yuanlin actually didn’t want to disturb Shuyan, but the more he looked at this case, the stranger it was. As Shuyan had said last time, these brats had provoked something they shouldn’t have. Apart from asking Shuyan for help, he really couldn’t resolve it for the time being. He couldn’t just watch a group of people wait for death, right?

Seeing that Brother Feng’s face didn’t look good, Chi Shuyan had a guess and said, “Brother Feng, I’m free now. What’s wrong?”

Feng Yuanlin sighed and pulled Chi Shuyan to an empty corner before telling her.

It turned out that someone else had died at around five in the morning, and it had been an especially tragic death. Not only had their skin been peeled off, their body had been crushed to pieces under the wheels of a car; there were bits of human flesh stuck to the wheels.

The person who had reported the case was the owner of the car. According to the owner, he hadn’t been driving fast at that time, and there was a green light in front of him. He had been driving at a regular speed, but someone suddenly rushed toward his car and courted death themself.

Then, the victim was sucked under the wheels and died a tragic death.

It was dark at that time, and the owner of the car was also scared out of his wits. When he realized that it seemed he had run over someone, he immediately drove home in a panic.

A few hours later, he discovered that the victim’s body was stuck under his car in the garage at home, and the victim’s face had actually been peeled off. It was only because he didn’t go crazy with fright on the spot that he was able to immediately confess to the police.

Seeing that Shuyan looked dazed, as if she were deep in thought, Feng Yuanlin seemed to understand what she was thinking about, and immediately said, “That’s right, the kid who died was one of those people from last time. We met them in the hospital before. His name is Gu Guobin!”

Chi Shuyan didn’t have much of an impression of this Gu Guobin, but she remembered what happened in the hospital back then. The one who had left the deepest impression on her was Yang Ji, who had jumped off a building.

Seeing that Shuyan didn’t speak, Feng Yuanlin continued, “Shuyan, when I went back, I really watched that movie called ‘Death Is Here.’ To be honest, I didn’t understand what that group was talking about before; I have some idea now. This person was really unlucky to have died in such a baffling and tragic way.”

When he saw the corpse, he, who was used to seeing dead people and evil spirits, almost threw up. The corpse was simply too wretched to look at. Even the medical examiner, who was using tweezers to collect minced meat from the wheels, threw up.

After a pause, he thought of something and suddenly said, “By the way, Shuyan, that group of people is at our police station. That Sister Yuan, who can predict anything, is also there. Why don’t you come with me to take a look?”

Brother Feng continued, “To be honest, after looking at that Sister Yuan, I can’t tell what kind of expert she is. Instead, she looks like an ordinary girl.”

Chi Shuyan looked askance at Brother Feng, who hurriedly said, “Shuyan, I’m not implying anything about you. You’re definitely an expert in my heart. Besides, that Sister Yuan isn’t as good-looking as you.”

Chi Shuyan blinked helplessly at Brother Feng before she nodded to indicate that she would follow him to the police station.

Before getting into the car and going to the police station, Feng Yuanlin asked her about making up with Zhenbai. He wanted to hear gossip to distract him from the car accident. He couldn’t be bothered with other gossip, but he was really quite curious about Zhenbai and Shuyan.

Feng Yuanlin thought that Shuyan would complain about Zhenbai, but who would have thought that when he looked up, he would see Shuyan’s unusually solemn face. His heart thumped, and he heard Shuyan say, “Brother Feng, thank you for trying to get me and Qi Zhenbai back together.”

Feng Yuanlin chuckled and waved his hand. When he met Shuyan’s gaze, he heard her say, “One more thing, Brother Feng: Don’t say anything in your Moments in the future to make Zhenbai think that I’m with another man! I don’t like it!”

She couldn’t bear for that man to be jealous, nor did she want him to misunderstand her.

At the mention of this, Feng Yuanlin felt very guilty, but he was more curious about Shuyan’s unusually protective attitude toward Zhenbai. He hadn’t seen them for a few days, and it seemed like they had made quick progress.

Feng Yuanlin was about to speak, when he heard Shuyan continue, “But thank you, Brother Feng, for worrying about me and Qi Zhenbai.”

These words warmed Feng Yuanlin’s heart, and the gloom from before was swept away. He teased cheerfully, “Oh, Shuyan, it seems that you and Zhenbai have been making quick progress!”

Feng Yuanlin’s tone was probing, but he didn’t expect Shuyan to talk about the car accident instead of answering him.

Thinking of the death today, Feng Yuanlin was no longer in the mood to gossip about the two of them. He just said that when they reconciled, he would treat them to a drink.

Chi Shuyan pursed her lips and agreed with a smile. “Okay!”

As the two spoke, they arrived at the police station. There was no longer any trace of mischief on Feng Yuanlin’s serious face as he took Shuyan inside.

Before entering the police station, he asked his subordinates where those people were.

The subordinate who replied was called Gao Yunming, and he immediately replied, “Director Feng, that group of people is still in the interrogation room. A few of them cried for a while just now and haven’t calmed down much. There’s also someone called Yang Ji. He’s saying over and over again that he wants to be detained here for a few more days. He doesn’t want to leave!”

“Take me there!”

“Yes, Director Feng!” Guo Yunming took a few more looks at Chi Shuyan with some curiosity in his eyes. Not long after, he led the two in.

As soon as Feng Yuanlin and Chi Shuyan entered the interrogation room, they met red, numb, pained and terrified eyes. However, one of the women didn’t have the slightest bit of fear or any expression on her face. She hadn’t cried, and was very calm. Not only that, she occasionally looked at the people next to her impatiently, as if she couldn’t understand why they were crying.

When Chi Shuyan looked at the woman, she recalled the expert called Sister Yuan whom Yang Ji and the others had mentioned before. She exchanged looks with Brother Feng. She didn’t know anyone else, so she greeted Yang Ji first. “Hello! It’s been a while!”
