Chapter 2334: Chapter 2338: Worlds Apart
"It’s possible, but not certain," Gu Junzhu grabbed the water glass and took a casual sip. "If Ruan Feifei was lucky, she wouldn’t have to die. After all, it happened in public. If even one person had stepped forward to stop it, Ruan Feifei might not have died."
He put down the glass and spread his hands at Zhan Jinchuan. "Obviously, her luck was too bad... or rather, her reputation was too bad! People had just started spreading online what she had done. Anyone who wanted to help her was quickly informed about her true nature, and no one stepped up to help."
"So, good deeds are rewarded, and evil deeds are punished. It’s that simple!"
"Why?" Zhan Jinchuan asked. "Why does Lin Rong hate Ruan Feifei so much?"
The video circulating online was very clear, but the dialogue between Lin Rong and Ruan Feifei was very vague.
He watched it several times but couldn’t make out what Lin Rong and Ruan Feifei were saying.
"Lin Rong once had a daughter who was deceived by Ruan Feifei," Gu Junzhu said. "Lin Rong was cooking at home, and her daughter was playing at the doorstep when Ruan Feifei tricked her away."
"What... What did you say?" Zhan Jinchuan’s hair stood on end.
"I said, Ruan Feifei’s identity goes beyond being the daughter of a criminal; she was an accomplice," Gu Junzhu said. "Many parents educate their children not to talk to strangers, but few tell them not to talk to unfamiliar children. Children easily play together."
"When Ruan Feifei was little, she was very pretty and likable. She once helped her parents deceive children. Her parents would hide in the dark, and she was responsible for luring the children to secluded spots, where her parents would take them away."
Zhan Jinchuan was dumbfounded, staring incredulously. "Do you... do you have evidence?"
"Of course," Gu Junzhu opened a computer and played a video. "This is surveillance footage found while the police were searching for Lin Rong’s daughter over ten years ago."
Gu Junzhu pointed at the younger girl on the surveillance footage on the computer. "That’s Lin Rong’s daughter. The one bending down and talking to her is Ruan Feifei."
Gu Junzhu pushed the computer to make the screen more visible to Zhan Jinchuan. "It’s been over ten years, but Ruan Feifei hasn’t changed much, has she?"
Zhan Jinchuan stared at the computer.
In the surveillance video, Ruan Feifei conversed with Lin Rong’s daughter for a while, then left on her own without taking the girl.
Zhan Jinchuan asked, "Didn’t she leave without taking Lin Rong’s daughter?"
"Because there was surveillance in that area," Gu Junzhu glanced at the computer. "And many people around. She would have liked to take Lin Rong’s daughter, but do you think she had the chance?"
Zhan Jinchuan frowned. "Are there any other surveillance videos? If not, just basing it on this video to say Lin Rong’s daughter was taken by Ruan Feifei seems too hasty."
"Brother Chuan, what are you thinking?" Gu Junzhu placed one hand on Zhan Jinchuan’s shoulder. "Do you want to see a video of Ruan Feifei taking Lin Rong’s daughter? If such a video existed, the police would have arrested Ruan Feifei long ago instead of letting her roam free for so many years."
Gu Junzhu pointed at the computer with his other hand. "Back then, when the police helped Lin Rong find her daughter, they didn’t find any clues. Neither the police nor the Lin Family suspected this sweet-looking girl in the surveillance video was related to Lin Rong’s daughter’s disappearance."
