Yumi Fujihashi shuddered. Baizhi's hand was cold, like the touch of some cold-blooded animal. It stopped at the edge of the bruise exposed on her collar. It didn't hurt, but it made people shudder.

But Baizhi's eyes were very clean, pure and deep, like amber, wrapping up the helpless insects little by little, burying them and letting them sleep forever.

"He has a bad temper, but the relationship between you two sisters is pretty good, and you're very smart." Bai Zhi tilted her head and smiled softly, "Don't be nervous, you're right, I'm not from the police."

"Your father has a bad temper. He is an alcoholic and easily angered. He beats and scolds you. I don't know how many things in the house have been replaced because of him." Bai Zhi put down her hand and sat back on the bench. "Your stepmother has no blood relationship with you. It's not a pity for such a person to die."

"You, how do you know..." Fujihashi Yumi was a little scared, but her legs felt like they were filled with lead and she couldn't move. When she closed her eyes, Baizhi's eyes that could see through the soul would appear in her mind.

"It's very simple, Miss Yumi. Your father's watch is covered with scars. The scratches from the fall and the bottle cap really ruin a fine watch." Bai Zhi said slowly, "The age and dryness of his face, as well as the color of his nose and cheeks, clearly indicate long-term alcoholism, although he didn't drink last night."

"Besides, there is a fundamental difference between a beer belly and obesity. Judging from his facial features, he is already irritable and easily angered. I'm afraid that he will become even worse after drinking."

Fujihashi Yumi lowered her head. She tried her best not to pay attention to Baizhi, but she was still calm, at least she was not panicking.

"My father's death has nothing to do with me." Yumi Fujihashi said in a low voice.

"I know, so I sigh that you sisters have a good relationship." Bai Zhi smiled and said, "Ordinary people who can kill the rulers can't play this kind of music."

Fujihashi Yumi's face became paler and paler, and her eyes were filled with struggle and hesitation.

"You don't have to change your words and say you're the murderer. It's useless to admit it to me." Bai Zhi sighed and pointed to the place next to her: "Besides, you don't know much more than me."

Perhaps, she should just leave, Fujihashi Yumi thought so, but for some reason, Fujihashi Yumi just sat down obediently.

Or rather, she couldn't be considered obedient, it was just that her legs were a little weak.

"Is today your birthday?" Bai Zhi suddenly asked.

"Eh? Miss Baizhi? How come you..." Fujihashi Yumi, who had just sat down, immediately looked at Baizhi in surprise. She was sure that before today, she definitely didn't know Baizhi.

Because when you played "Forgetfulness", your eyes were full of desire and struggle. You obviously didn't want to be forgotten. Today is not a festival. What do you expect others to discover?

Moreover.

"It's a bit strange to play the violin in front of a candle, so I made a guess." Bai Zhi said, and stretched out her hand: "Since you like the violin, how about I play a piece as your birthday gift?"

"In exchange, I'd like to hear your story."

"Okay?"

Although the tone was clearly one of tactful negotiation, Fujihashi Yumi's heart was pounding. By the time she reacted, the violin was already in Baizhi's hands.

"Then the contract is done."

As Bai Zhi's voice fell, the tragic "Song of the Wanderer" required difficult and profound violin techniques, but Bai Zhi played it effortlessly, as if she had repeated it countless times.

But Baizhi did not play the cheerful fourth part, but only played the sad tunes of the first three parts.

"Then can you tell me your story?" Bai Zhi put the violin into the violin case and sat down next to Fujihashi Yumi: "It starts from when you hated but longed for your birthday."

Yumi Fujihashi touched her cheek and found it cold. She slowly closed her eyes and lowered her head resigned to her fate.

Yes, she hated birthdays.

"Because my mother died on my birthday. My mother was his original wife. I will never forget that day when they had a big fight and my mother jumped off the roof..."

Her mother was not a strong and unyielding soul. She was just an ordinary little woman. Before she knew her husband was cheating on her, she had been blaming herself, thinking that she had done something wrong and made her husband tired of her and not come home all night.

In addition, my father had a bad temper and would verbally suppress me when he occasionally stayed at home, which made my mother's already fragile spirit even weaker. Knowing that her father had an affair with a mistress was just the fuse.

That day, she was watching the snow at the window.

That day was her birthday.

At that time, the Fujihashi family was not a big family and their family was not rich. Fujihashi Kumamoto wanted to make a lot of money, so he left her to her grandmother who favored boys over girls. From then on, Fujihashi Yumi never saw her father again. She did all the work at home and could only eat a bite of meat after the men in the family had eaten their fill.

Until Fujihashi Kumamoto, dressed in a well-dressed suit and looking like a beast in human clothing, took Fujihashi Yumi back. At that time, Fujihashi Kumamoto was married to his mistress, who was only two years younger than him.

That day was her birthday again.

"But, Fujihashi Kumamoto's current wife is not Fujihashi Akako's mother, right?" Bai Zhi interrupted Fujihashi Yumi in confusion: "They don't look alike."

"Yeah, how could he be like that scumbag?" Yumi Fujihashi lowered her eyelashes with hatred in her eyes.

Fujihashi Yumi and her sister Fujihashi Akako have always been at odds with each other. After all, one is the original wife and the other is the mistress. Under such circumstances, their daughters obviously cannot live in harmony.

However, they will not remain hostile forever. If there is a mistress, there will be a fourth mistress.

Fujihashi Akako's mother did not jump off the building, but she made a big fuss and threw Fujihashi Akako away after getting the money.

Speaking of this, actually Fujihashi Kumamoto brought Fujihashi Yumi back for a business marriage. He had his eyes on the son of a family. Unfortunately, man proposes, God disposes. The mistress took away part of the family property, causing the industry that Fujihashi Kumamoto had just established to shrink by nearly one third, and the other party immediately broke off the engagement.

Come to think of it, we may have to thank that mistress.

Then, Xiao Si appeared again. She was the illegitimate daughter Fujihashi Yuriko. The reason why she was called an illegitimate daughter was because Xiao Si did not get promoted at all. Fujihashi Kumamoto directly married Xiao Wu.

And Fujihashi Yuriko is only three years younger than Fujihashi Akako.

Bai Zhi: "...your circle is quite chaotic."

No wonder when she wanted to use the crystal ball to check Fujihashi Yumi's information just now, the crystal ball told her that it would cost a lot to learn about Fujihashi Yumi's experience.

It's definitely worth the price, it's a lot of information.

This Fujihashi Kumamoto was a crab? If he hadn't died early, how many children could he have had?

"So, are you sure you don't have another sister?" Bai Zhi expressed her doubt.

Fujihashi Yuriko is an adult now, so it is really impossible for her to have a child who is two or three years younger than her?

"Who knows? I don't want to care." Fujihashi Yumi lowered her head: "I don't know who killed my father, but Fujihashi Kumamoto deserved to die. If possible..."

"If you are willing to pay a small price." Bai Zhi stroked the crystal ball in her arms, but this time, she hesitated a little: "If you are willing to exchange twenty years of your life with me, I can keep your sister from going to jail."

"You should be well aware that your sister's target is definitely not just Fujihashi Kumamoto. Serial killers are usually sentenced to heavy penalties, not to mention that you are the one who benefits from it."

"Would you like to help your sister a little?"
