Crime Hunt Files: Bloody Angel

Waiting for Bai Ji'an to straighten his sleeves, Qiu Yizhen's mood finally stabilized.

She looked at Bai Ji'an nervously, as if she had something to say.

"I agree to accept your commission, so can you guarantee that every word you say to me is true?" Bai Ji'an looked up at her, his eyebrows deep, "I am not the policeman you faced yesterday. It’s easy to be fooled by your lies.”

"Okay." Qiu Yizhen nodded repeatedly, "I can guarantee it, as long as you can save me."

Bai Ji'an glanced at the door of the room and said, "It's hard to imagine that you would give up the police and choose a stranger to help you."

"Because you already know." Qiu Yizhen said: "It's not that I don't believe in the police's ability, but I can't have too much contact with the police. As for the reason, you know, I don't need to say more."

If she really told the truth to the police that she was the sister-in-law of the deceased Huo Zichao. Then, the police will definitely keep contacting her until they solve the case.

She had no idea where the murderer was or what happened to her brother's family.

She didn't want to be involved, and she didn't want to die in an unknown way.

"Do you think Huo Zichao's murderer is watching you from the dark?"

"I don't know." Qiu Yizhen's face gradually darkened, "I really don't know, I can't say. In fact, after Zizhao's incident, I often felt that someone might be following me, or secretly monitoring me somewhere. Me. But I didn’t see it with my own eyes, and I have no evidence.”

Bai Ji'an leaned on the chair, crossed his hands and placed them on his chest. "Maybe this is just your imagination."

"Hallucination?" Qiu Yizhen didn't understand. "You mean I'm sick."

"It's not necessarily an illness. You're just using your subjective thoughts to infinitely amplify the fear deep in your heart."

"Am I the one scaring myself?"

Bai Ji'an stared at her, "Let me ask again, are you sure? Whether it's Huo Lin, Wang Xinran, or Huo Zichao, you don't know about any of their ulterior secrets."

"I'm sure!" Qiu Yizhen nodded repeatedly like a chicken eating rice, for fear that Bai Ji'an would not believe it. "Really, everything I say is true, you must believe me."

Not to mention what happened to Huo Lin and his wife, she couldn't even figure out why the originally promised workplace suddenly changed to another one.

"After my stepfather died, we lost contact. When we contacted again, something had happened to them. Not long after, I received a call from Zichao."

"Then why did you suddenly move to Australia?"

"Two reasons. The first is because since I received the call from Zichao, I feel that my originally peaceful life has suddenly changed, and even my mentality has been the same. I can no longer enjoy life as I did before. I feel Only by moving to a brand new place can I return to my original life. The second thing is that Zichao asked me to leave."

Bai Ji'an frowned, "He asked you to leave, so why didn't he leave when he was in more danger?"

Qiu Yizhen shook her head, "I also told him, but he didn't say anything more. He just told me that whether he leaves or not has no meaning."

After separating from Qiu Yizhen, Bai Ji'an stood in front of the elevator door.

"It doesn't matter whether you go or not."

Therefore, Huo Zichao knew that no matter where he went, the murderer could find him out and deal with him mercilessly if he wanted to.

There is no point even going abroad to hide.

Bai Ji'an remembered what he saw on Hua Xiaotian's information last night, about his and his parents' jobs, which were both in Toronto, Canada.

He was deep in thought, and saw that the elevator was approaching the thirty-first floor, and out of the corner of his eye, a pair of very familiar leather shoes came into view.

Bai Ji'an looked up, and He Wei was staring at him with a gloomy expression.

"Can you hear me?" Bai Ji'an said calmly, "The door panel of this hotel's room looks very thick."

He Wei frowned, "I'm not in the mood to joke with you."

With a ding-dong sound, the elevator door slowly opened.

He Wei roughly grabbed Bai Ji'an's arm and pushed him into the elevator.

"Let go." Bai Ji'an said in a deep voice, "You hurt me."

"Stop pretending." He Wei pushed the person to the corner and said seriously: "What are you doing here?"

"Meet the client."

"Client? When did Qiu Yizhen become your client?"

"just."

Bai Ji'an's nonchalant attitude made the fire in He Wei's heart burn bigger and bigger, flaring everywhere.

He Wei gritted his teeth and tightened his last sanity.

"What did she entrust you with?"

Bai Ji'an stared at He Wei's angry face. After a while, he shook his head and said, "Secret."

"What did you say?" He Wei couldn't believe his ears, "Say it again."

"I said, secret." Bai Ji'an straightened up, "Don't you know? It is also the duty of a detective to keep everything about the client confidential."

"I'm not kidding you!" He Wei grabbed Bai Ji'an's lapel, "You clearly know that Qiu Yizhen is related to the unsolved case. What do you know? You must tell the bureau and don't act without authorization!"

"What are you doing?" Bai Ji'an looked at him indifferently, "Are you helping Yan Haizhen, who is progressing slowly, to fight against injustice?"

"What?" He Wei was startled by the sudden change of topic, "What does it have to do with Yan Haizhen? I'm just discussing the matter."

"Is that your case?"

"Hua Xiaotian's case is my case."

Bai Ji'an smiled coldly, "Qiu Yizhen and Hua Xiaotian have nothing to do with each other."

He Wei couldn't understand what Bai Ji'an meant at all.

He clearly knew that the murderer of the Hua Xiaotian case and the latest case of the Faceless Man were very likely to be the same person. Why do you say such sarcastic words?

Seeing that the elevator was about to reach the second floor, Bai Ji'an ruthlessly slapped away the hand holding his clothes.

"When you get the case, question me again."

He Wei didn't expect Bai Ji'an to talk to him like this.

He obviously knows best how he feels about not getting a new case, so why is he still like this?

"Bai Ji'an!"

He Wei chased after him, grabbed his shoulders before he got into the car, pulled him over, and pressed him against the car door.

"What did you do?"

Bai Ji'an frowned in displeasure, "What are you talking about carelessly?"

"Yesterday, you went to see me twice. You deliberately bumped into Yan Haizhen and others when they were entering and leaving the house. What did you do?"

He Wei stared into Bai Ji'an's eyes, and he was in a very bad mood as he spoke every word.

"Don't lie to me, I know everything."

Bai Ji'an also stared at him. For a while, he suddenly remembered He Wei who suddenly came to the office to find him last night.

"Attack you."

This is what he said when he came in.

He had already suspected him then.

Bai Ji'an said: "You worked overtime last night. What did you do overtime? The monitoring room?"
