Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Zhao Ran was shocked! He stood up abruptly but was dragged backward as he was cuffed to the chair. His wrists were bruised and there were bloodstains. After noticing Li Xiu’s presence, Bai Wu tensed up immediately. He gritted his teeth and clenched his fists. If Xu Lan did not hold Bai Wu back, he would have beaten Li Xiu into a pulp.
“I warned you to watch out if you were ever caught by me again! How dare you show up here?” Bai Wu’s threatening fists sent shivers down Li Xiu’s spine.
“Zhao Ran, are you still refusing to come clean?” Xu Lan shouted as he pushed Li Xiu toward Zhao Ran. Hu Cheng stepped forward and cuffed Li Xiu with Zhao Ran.
Blood drained from Zhao Ran’s face as he asked Xu Lan in fear, “You, how did you find him?”
“Are you surprised? Did you think that your plan was perfect, with a scapegoat and all? Pft, we happen to be working with Li Xiu’s nemesis!”
When Qin Lao told Xu Lan about the dimensional cracks in Laos and Whitehorse City shared the same frequency, Xu Lan knew that there was more to this. It was highly likely that Zhao Ran discovered some sort of power to travel through the void and subsequently managed to transfer the crime scene to a different place. This would explain why they had not been making good progress with the investigation.
Shortly after, Bai Wu ran into Li Xiu when he was engaged in a battle against the dragon clan. Bai Wu did not think twice about capturing Li Xiu. Over the past few days, Li Xiu was bullied so much in Qin Lao’s laboratory to the point that he feared the sight of Bai Wu.
“When did you all begin to suspect me?” Zhao Ran stopped defending himself and withered in his seat.
Xu Lan coughed. He felt bad and glanced at Bai Wu subconsciously. Xiao Feng took the hint and stepped in to answer Zhao Ran’s question.
“A lot of people were involved in the 928 incident. Throughout my career, I’ve never worked on a case bigger than this. Initially, we thought that the game was invented by a psychopath to entertain himself. However, through Xu Lan’s analysis, we began to realize the true nature of the case.
Your biggest mistake was making Song Xi impersonate Sir’s wife. Based on the information we have, she was supposed to be a dead person. Song Xi’s sudden confession made us investigate into it again. This was when we invited Qin Lao from the Central Science Park. He was the person who discovered the spatial connection between the two places. I shall elaborate more on this, but first, let me point out all of your mistakes.
Secondly, you showed interest in Bai Wu when Xu Lan went to buy a house the other day. The level of interest that you showed was abnormal, especially when no one besides us knew about Bai Wu. Of course, there was a reason why Xu Lan chose to purchase his house from Zhao’s Properties.
Thirdly, you showed too much concern for the mine owner. The Sparrow Game was executed meticulously. When everyone from the mine received their punishment, it was logical for the creator of the game who had not been able to get ahold of the mine owner to desperately want to locate him. Heh, but to think that you were so crazy to the point that you enlisted someone from our team to look for the mine owner!”
This person was a terrifying and meticulous individual who killed mercilessly. Up till then, he was responsible for seven deaths. To the public, he was the perfect gentleman; In reality, he was rotten to the core!
“Pft, I did not know that I’ve made so many fatal mistakes. I was using Song Xi and Mama Song to confuse the police, but little did I know that I’ve actually planted a time bomb for myself! This is unfair! My biggest regret is not being able to kill the vicious demon!” Zhao Ran looked at Bai Wu with hatred in his eyes, ready to devour him completely.
