Bai Xiaoliang watched helplessly as Lucas, smiling, followed their teacher, along with those four senior brothers and sisters, junior brothers and sisters, getting farther and farther away from him.
"Brother Liang, this ti, your junior brother won't co back to Hua Country again, right? This person is really too scary, actually hiring a ntally ill person to try and kill ."
Bai Xiaoliang's girlfriend coquettishly hugged Bai Xiaoliang's arm, but then noticed his entire face was frozen in shock.
"Brother Liang, what's wrong with you?"
Bai Xiaoliang's girlfriend asked with great concern.
Bai Xiaoliang shook his head thoughtfully, then smiled: "It's nothing."
"Alright, let's go. I'm not working today, I'll accompany you shopping."
"Oh! Hooray!"
Bai Xiaoliang's girlfriend happily let go of his arm, hopping and skipping forward like a child, full of adorable energy.
It was at this mont that Bai Xiaoliang's expression turned somber.
He murmured to himself: "Junior brother, oh junior brother, if you knew that the win-win situation you thought you had was actually sothing I deliberately allowed, what would you think then?"
"Your true goal wasn't actually to kill . Even though you hate deeply, you know even better that killing would leave you with absolutely no way back."
"Your true goal was to lose to , so that Teacher would take you back."
"Then you'd repent and reform in front of Teacher, returning to this profession."
"As for , although I also really want to kill you, a nace who uses hypnosis to harm people everywhere."
"But because of that relationship with Teacher, I can't go too hard on you either. Social conventions and human relationships are everywhere."
"So, my ultimate goal was also to have Teacher take you away, to have him keep you under control."
"According to what you said, it indeed counts as a win-win situation."
...
Huo Yun didn't dare approach Lucas, so he could only stand on the second floor, watching from afar as he saw him off.
"Goodbye, Dr. Lucas."
Huo Yun kept waving, a faint smile on his face.
After seeing Lucas off, Huo Yun went out to hail a rideshare. He happened to see Bai Xiaoliang driving up in a white Ferrari, with his girlfriend getting into the passenger seat.
After that, Bai Xiaoliang drove away, leaving behind only people like Huo Yun, and other n and won at the airport who were staring dumbfounded at this scene.
"That Ferrari car is really beautiful, but I guess I'll never be able to drive one in my lifeti."
The corners of his mouth gradually drooped downwards, and his face was about to turn into a bitter gourd expression again.
Huo Yun quickly pressed two fingers against the corners of his mouth, forcibly pulling them upwards.
The rideshare arrived, and Huo Yun got in.
He returned to Alice Apartnt.
Before even reaching the apartnt building, he saw a man with a cara on his forehead and a man with a cara in his palm standing downstairs at the apartnt building.
They were interviewing two cleaning aunties wearing cleaning uniforms from Alice Apartnt.
Huo Yun quietly walked over, preparing to see what they were interviewing about.
"Excuse , you two aunties, how did you feel about the deceased Manager Li Chong from this morning? Was he usually easy to get along with?"
Downstairs at the apartnt building, the person with a cara on his forehead was Liu Xiaogang, and the person with a cara in his palm was Yao Junjie.
Yao Junjie had finally agreed to Liu Xiaogang's idea in the end.
The content of the third item would be made into finding the real culprit.
There was no other way;
they had been poor for too long.
Yao Junjie felt that this case at Alice Apartnt, involving soone's death, and especially that kind of death thod.
If made into a video, even if it didn't go viral, it would definitely gain so popularity.
Seize the opportunity;
taking a bit of risk was worth it!
Thus, the two began walking down the path of no return to find the real culprit.
And the people being interviewed, quite coincidentally, were still those two cleaning aunties from this morning who had cleaned the bloodstains together with Jiang Ran.
These two cleaning aunties, others called them, one was called Aunt Wen, and the other was called Aunt Zhang.
Both were in their forties.
Aunt Wen and Aunt Zhang originally weren't too keen on accepting an interview from soone with a cara on his forehead.
But seeing as the other party gave them two hundred yuan each, they accepted.
Aunt Wen began answering Liu Xiaogang's question:
"This Manager Li Chong, he's newly arrived recently. The previous Manager Xiao Zhang quit, so he took over."
"But compared to the original Manager Xiao Zhang, he's much worse."
"Both in terms of being a person, and in terms of doing things."
Liu Xiaogang seed to have grasped a key point: "Aunt Wen, can you be more specific?"
Aunt Wen cleared her throat and said: "First, talking about being a person. Do you know, during this Li Chong's ti as manager here, because he was being a 'butterfly,' calling prostitutes to co to his door, how many tis has he been arrested?"
Liu Xiaogang and Yao Junjie looked at each other.
Aunt Wen didn't make them guess either, extending two fingers: "Twice. How long has he been working here? He's already had two incidents. This man is really a scoundrel."
"Uh... yeah, quite a scoundrel."
Liu Xiaogang looked sowhat guilty as he exchanged glances with Yao Junjie.
Hearing about Li Chong's matter, they actually didn't think there was anything wrong with Li Chong calling prostitutes to his door.
After all, they had done similar things themselves.
It's just that they hadn't called anyone to their door;
they went to massage parlors, foot bath shops, to relieve their urges.
"Uh, are there any other aspects about him as a person?"
Aunt Wen nodded like a chicken pecking rice: "Of course there are."
"This man always has a gloomy face all day, as if everyone owes him money or cheated on him."
"Moreover, this guy is really good at putting on airs."
"With the previous Manager Xiao Zhang, we usually called him directly, just called him Xiao Zhang."
"But this Manager Li Chong, he insisted we call him Supervisor Li. Otherwise, he'd give us a black look. He even wanted to fire us, what a bastard!"
Aunt Wen grew angrier the more she talked about this.
Liu Xiaogang said: "That's about being a person. What about in terms of doing things?"
Aunt Wen said: "There are even more about doing things. Aren't you the one who just moved in? Yesterday's welco party, you were there too, right?"
"At previous welco parties, Manager Xiao Zhang always prepared delicious food, letting everyone eat and drink their fill before going back."
"But what about last night? Others gave him a way out, telling him not to prepare in the future, but to prepare for today. Yet he still acted all high and mighty. Just wouldn't do it. I think, maybe it was because of last night that soone couldn't stand it anymore and killed him!"
Liu Xiaogang's eyes lit up: "Then, Aunt Wen, who do you think is most likely to have killed him?"
Aunt Wen suddenly showed an expression of difficulty.
Liu Xiaogang knew this ant she wanted money again.
So he took out another four hundred from his pocket, giving it to Aunt Wen and Aunt Zhang in front of him, two hundred each.
But after accepting the money, Aunt Wen clearly looked unsatisfied.
Liu Xiaogang cursed in his heart: Insatiably greedy.
But there was no other way;
his hand still reached back.
Yao Junjie fished out four hundred from his own pocket.
He whispered: "This is all I have on ."
He divided this four hundred equally between the two.
Only then did Aunt Wen's face light up with a smile.
Then, she quietly leaned closer to the space between Liu Xiaogang and Yao Junjie.
Speaking in a very soft voice: "I suspect the murderer is—Jiang Ran."
