Chapter 649: Chapter 197: Playing Really Hard (Part 2)
Too fat. Maybe now it doesn’t seem to be a problem, but as you age, all kinds of troubles will appear.
"Eating a bit more is fine, just remember to exercise more. I’ll have the bodyguard supervise you."
Xiang Qian: Finally back to Capital Star for a feast, but the boss wants him to work out. Boohoo, his luxurious meal.
Then Su Xiaocai equipped him with a device that can directly contact Wisdom 03, "If you need anything, you can speak directly to it. As long as there’s an internet connection, it can forward messages to me."
Essentially providing another survival strategy.
Xiang Qian counted his salary, so much!
Important thing is the boss deducted taxes before paying him.
Hehehe, he doesn’t mind lying in the hospital for a week to repair his skin.
Su Xiaocai is a generous boss, doesn’t treat people like cattle, nor does he push for perfection.
It’s just that you earn as much as you work.
Kaye watched Xiang Qian leave, carrying a basket of fruits casually.
This fat guy, his miserly nature hasn’t changed. If it weren’t for knowing he has a conscience, no one would be assured letting him investigate such an important matter.
In the lab, Su Xiaocai contacted Fei Yi separately, asking about the lady who died in the villa district.
Fei Yi knew quite a bit, she hadn’t seen the files, but she heard a few key points from friends at the police station.
"The victim worked as a housekeeper for the Xue Family for over thirty years, initially taking care of Xue Zhiyi’s daily needs, and later staying at the Xue Family for lighter cleaning tasks, mainly organizing Yi Xue and Xue Zhiyi’s rooms, occasionally cooking when the chef took leave. Before her death, she went to an upscale toy store to pick up a mechanical cat toy. Since clients often sent others to pick up items, the shop owner didn’t deliver it themselves."
"After getting the mechanical cat, the victim detoured to the park to feed a stray cat abandoned by its owner, went missing afterward, and then her body was found in the villa district."
From here, it’s beyond Fei Yi’s reach. It involves the All-Knowing Sect, and the police want to keep it low-profile.
This sect has killed too many, with brutal methods.
Too much reporting could unsettle the public.
All-black attire, exaggerated rituals, and explosive popularity.
Teenagers without discernment easily follow trends, thinking it’s cool.
Su Xiaocai thanked Fei Yi and then called Porlin for an update on the investigation.
When Xue Huiyi’s case will proceed and why it’s been delayed.
Yi Suilu’s whereabouts, Aunt Li’s death, who the suspects are...
"Chief Su, Boss Su, you should’ve told me when you returned." So he could avoid her, claiming to be busy.
"Regarding Xue Huiyi’s case, a while ago, the superior still wanted to find evidence of her hiring assassins." Maybe trying to curry favor with Su Xiaocai, but it felt redundant.
Matters related to the assassin organization can’t progress further.
Porlin dared not speak about what followed, regarding Aunt Li’s death, only that many perpetrators were involved, but the mastermind hadn’t been found. Many video pieces couldn’t serve as evidence.
As a result, a detective expert was brought in to assist.
"Who ordered the mechanical cat, can you tell me?"
"The owner said it was Yi Xue, but Yi Xue later denied it, claiming she didn’t order it. Xue Zhiyi already had many mechanical cats, during that time Xue Huiyi’s incident happened, Xue Feiting’s company faced technology impacts from Su Xiaocai, how could she have the mind to contact the shop owner for custom items."
Yi Xue stated she had nothing to hide, thus provided the communication with the shop owner from the month before Aunt Li’s death; the content was very ordinary, consisting mainly of a promotional message sent by the shop about a new animal toy.
Yi Xue didn’t reply, nor did she retract any message.
On the cloud information platform, there was no record from Yi Xue’s side.
But the merchant had Yi Xue’s dialogues.
The two sets of data didn’t match.
Someone had tampered with communications on the merchant’s side, posing as Yi Xue to order products.
And the merchant had Aunt Li’s contact number, so naturally, they notified Aunt Li to pick it up.
So the police could only confirm that the person capable of altering the information knew Aunt Li’s work and activity range well.
This included helping Yi Xue pick items, feeding stray cats.
Behind-the-scenes, the person exposed many things by killing Aunt Li, narrowing down suspects quickly.
But Aunt Li was kind-hearted, rarely had quarrels, no loans, no gambling, nor did she gossip beyond close friends; she hadn’t offended anyone.
