"Who is that person?"
"Gu Yue! He is... Gu Yue!"
"How could it be Gu Yue!"
When Jiang Zi revealed the person who humiliated Zhao Xiaohong, Chen Xiao and Luo Dali were stunned.
In their initial understanding, or rather everyone's understanding, it was likely someone was seeking revenge for Zhao Xiaohong's death.
If it was revenge, it was highly likely that Zhao Xiaohong had humiliated someone in the same manner beforehand.
But now, they were being told that Zhao Xiaohong was not only posthumously humiliated, but he had also suffered such humiliation when he was alive.
Moreover, the person who humiliated him happened to be his stepmother's ex-boyfriend—Gu Yue!
This information caught Chen Xiao off guard, but he quickly regained his composure.
"Miss Jiang, what exactly happened that day?"
A trace of heartache appeared in Jiang Zi's eyes: "You must already know that Xiaohong has a stepmother, and her ex-boyfriend is that Gu Yue."
Chen Xiao nodded: "You don't need to explain their relationships, we've already got a hold of them."
"At first, Xiaohong didn't know the relationship between Xiao Nian and Gu Yue. By accident, he encountered Gu Yue and Xiao Nian on the street. Although Xiaohong's relationship with his father was strained, he could still weigh the importance. He could hate his father, but it was hard for him to accept that his father was deceived."
Chen Xiao suddenly understood: "So, that day Zhao Xiaohong tried to restore Zhao Hai's dignity, but ended up being humiliated by Gu Yue instead?"
"Yes, at that time we saw Gu Yue and Xiao Nian walk into a club. After following them in, we discovered that Gu Yue had a few friends there. Xiaohong was furious and ignored being outnumbered, and directly fought with Gu Yue."
"Soon, Xiaohong was restrained!"
As Jiang Zi spoke, she couldn't hold back her tears.
Chen Xiao exhaled deeply, immediately walked to the car and opened the door, saying to Liang Yan: "Sister Liang, summon Gu Yue immediately, I suggest going straight to his residence to find him."
Sitting in the car, Liang Yan was still confused, waiting for Chen Xiao to explain the reason in her ear, before she unhesitatingly got out and called the detectives.
Meanwhile, Jiang Zi also came over.
When she glanced at Zhao Hai, hesitation showed in her eyes, but she ultimately said to Chen Xiao:
"Brother Chen, there's a matter I'm unsure whether to mention."
"At this point, is there anything that shouldn't be spoken?" Chen Xiao queried, prompting Jiang Zi to decide, replying:
"You surely know I've pursued Xiaohong for many years; even today, I still hope for him. But deep down, I know Xiaohong could never love me."
Since acquiring the Power of Capture, Chen Xiao's thinking no longer lingered on surface-level words.
His thinking was involuntarily guided by certain words to explore subconsciously.
"Are you saying that Zhao Xiaohong has someone he likes, right? And that's the reason you're hesitant to speak?"
Jiang Zi nodded as Chen Xiao pressed: "Who is she?"
Jiang Zi remained silent but looked at Zhao Hai.
Following her gaze, Chen Xiao was initially puzzled.
Why now, did Jiang Zi still stare at Zhao Hai?
But with a second glance, Chen Xiao's eyes widened in disbelief and asked: "How is that possible? How could it be her!"
Jiang Zi's face was filled with bitterness: "Indeed, probably nobody would believe Xiaohong likes Xiao Nian. It's too absurd, too impossible. But what if I told you that Xiao Nian was once Xiaohong's guitar teacher?"
"And if I further told you that Xiao Nian almost went to prison to protect Xiaohong, would you think it's absurd?"
"Haha, Xiaohong was only sixteen or seventeen then. A pretty, intelligent sister a few years older, who raised a knife nearly killing someone to protect him. Such a woman probably occupied his entire heart."
By the time Jiang Zi finished speaking, Chen Xiao felt silence.
Beside him, Luo Dali stood dumbfounded, while behind, Liang Yan was on the phone, stunned staring at this side.
Until Luo Dali slapped his forehead and exclaimed: "Damn, this is way too explosive!"
Explosive?
It's more than just explosive!
It's more thrilling than a TV drama!
Zhao Xiaohong's father betrayed the family years ago, causing his wife to poison herself to death.
The woman who caused the family upheaval was his guitar teacher, Xiao Nian, who was once reckless in rescuing him!
He secretly loved Xiao Nian, but she ended up becoming his father's legal wife!
Chen Xiao couldn't even imagine the inner turmoil Zhao Xiaohong was enduring back then.
Suddenly, Luo Dali sighed: "Damn, how could Xiaohong be so pitiful!"
With these words, Jiang Zi's restraint completely broke.
She squatted down and cried bitterly, unable to articulate further.
Zhao Hai still cluelessly emerged from the car, asking Jiang Zi: "Girl, you're here too?"
Jiang Zi lifted her head, looking at Zhao Hai with eyes full of hatred.
She indeed had reasons to hate Zhao Hai because she liked Zhao Xiaohong.
Seeing Zhao Hai approach, Jiang Zi went crazy, clawing at him with both hands.
"Do you know that everything turned out like this because of you, you disgusting old man!"
"If you hadn't insisted on marrying that woman, how would Xiaohong have become like this?"
"If you cared for Xiaohong, for your family, he wouldn't be dead, wouldn't have died unjustly!"
"Do you know Xiaohong dressed and acted that way all these years to disgust you and Xiao Nian! Because the night you bailed Xiao Nian out of the police station, Xiaohong fell for her!"
Zhao Hai initially instinctively avoided, but hearing the last sentence, froze.
He stood there with vacant eyes, not caring about Jiang Zi's sharp nails scratching his cheeks.
He seemed to recall something, finally sitting on the ground, repeatedly saying:
"Impossible, absolutely impossible."
Liang Yan, as the captain of the criminal investigation team, naturally couldn't let the situation escalate, quickly had Jiang Zi escorted away.
Once things settled, Liang Yan felt her mind was a chaotic mess beyond comprehension.
"Chen Xiao, based on these facts combined with the case already known, what do you think?"
Chen Xiao was equally bewildered.
The information Jiang Zi revealed was explosively overwhelming.
Even forcing himself to remain calm, Chen Xiao still couldn't figure it out.
"I can't understand. Zhao Xiaohong was the one humiliated, the one whose affection was stolen, yet he was the one who ended up dead? Clearly, Zhao Xiaohong was the most likely person to kill someone!"
Chen Xiao voiced his thoughts, and Liang Yan responded with a bitter smile.
Investigating the case so far, the impact was wave after wave.
But nobody anticipated that Zhao Hai, slumped on the ground, suddenly seemed to regain clarity. He abruptly stood, muttering:
"So I was the only one who didn't see it!"
"It turns out dressing like Gu Yue wasn't just to disgust me."
"He wanted both me and Xiao Nian to be restless!"
"Haha...hahaha..."
Zhao Hai, like someone who had lost his mind, laughed while speaking, then laughed until he cried uncontrollably.
