Chapter 841: Chapter 841: Footprints at the Scene Belong to Two People Chapter 841: Chapter 841: Footprints at the Scene Belong to Two People “Mr. Jie, about Mr. Jinchen…”
“Without evidence, how are you going to talk to Jiang Jinchen? Tell him his woman might be an undercover? Do you think he’ll believe you?” Dan Hanjie turned around, coldly sneering.
If soone told him now that Qin Youxuan was an undercover agent lurking by his side, he would kill that person.
Putting himself in the sa situation, he didn’t need Jiang Jinchen to tell him the answer.
“I understand, Sir.”
“How’s the investigation into Sir Huo’s death going?” Dan Hanjie changed the subject, suddenly speaking up.
“The police are still investigating. It has been confird that the killer is indeed a woman, but now there are footprints from two people, making the case even more complicated and confusing.”
“Two people…”
Dan Hanjie’s devilish eyes narrowed, a gleam of deep light flashing across them.
“Keep investigating; if the police can’t find out, then start with Sir Huo’s apprentices and see who has seen that hairpin.”
“Yes, sir.”
Yao nodded and left.
In the quiet study, only Dan Hanjie was left.
He stared at the dark night sky for a long ti before turning and stepping out of the study.
…
“Housekeeper, I’m full and I would like to rest upstairs for a while. Don’t let anyone disturb unless it’s necessary,” Qin Youxuan put down her chopsticks, stood up from the dining table, picked up the napkin to wipe her mouth, and turned to run upstairs.
She had waited impatiently for Dan Hanjie to leave the villa and rushed to his study the mont she could.
Standing in front of the door, facing the fingerprint lock of his study, she froze.
How could she forget? No one was allowed near his study.
Now that he wasn’t there, she couldn’t get in.
Qin Youxuan bit her lip, thought for a long ti outside the door, and then slowly raised her hand toward the fingerprint scanner.
“Beep beep beep—”
The red light on the lock lit up, sounding an alarm.
Qin Youxuan quickly withdrew her hand.
Her fingerprint didn’t work.
Qin Youxuan, feeling frustrated, kicked the door to the study and took a deep breath, then looked up.
With the fingerprint unsuccessful, she could only try the password.
But she couldn’t think of any numbers Dan Hanjie might use as a password.
After hesitating for a long ti, Qin Youxuan raised her hand and input Dan Hanjie’s birthday.
“Beep beep beep—”
Wrong.
Her own birthday…
Qin Youxuan typed it in with an awkward expression.
“Beep beep beep—”
Still wrong.
“All wrong. Dan Hanjie, could it be that you’ve got a mistress outside using her birthday?” Qin Youxuan mumbled to herself, standing at the door.
She couldn’t co up with any other special numbers.
After walking back and forth in front of the study several tis, Qin Youxuan suddenly rembered sothing, rushed forward, and quickly typed in their wedding anniversary.
Even though it was a marriage of convenience, it was indeed a special day.
“Beep—”
After a long beep, the lock opened.
“Phew…”
Entering his study for the first ti like a thief, Qin Youxuan was so nervous she could barely breathe.
Even her breathing slowed down.
Dan Hanjie had said that the entire villa was rebuilt according to Yujing Villa, so the chanisms in the study should be the sa.
Qin Youxuan walked forward, found the switch in the dark based on her mory, and pressed it.
In the darkness, a curtain was slowly drawn back.
The sunlight from outside poured in, illuminating a corner of the world.
Qin Youxuan stood in the middle of the study, carefully looking around, and finally approached his desk and pulled open the drawers one by one.
In the bottom compartnt, she saw a black velvet box.
Qin Youxuan paused, bit her lip, and then reached out.
She took the box in her hand, took a deep breath, and lifted the lid.
A glittering diamond hairpin sparkled in the dim light, dazzling enough to make one’s eyes ache…
