The Genius Sweetheart of the Abstinent Goblin Boss

Back to the main storyline, Chi Tao became distressed again.

"But to advance the research, we need the original body's DNA. If Mr. Qi was a victim of their experiment, then his remains..." Chi Tao suddenly fell silent.

It’s over. Looks like I said the wrong thing again.

"He should still be at Zeng's house." Ji Ran answered calmly, but a hint of cruelty flashed in his eyes.

"How is it possible!" Chi Tao exclaimed, "Who would hide evidence of a crime in their own home?"

"Then where do you think would be more suitable to hide than Zeng's house?" Ji Ran asked calmly.

Chi Tao was stunned, and immediately broke out in a sweat.

In Jinghua City, there is really no safer hiding place than the Zeng family.

This further proves how terrible the Zeng family is. Not only are they cruel and brutal in killing people, but they can also live peacefully with their family atop the corpses of the innocent souls they killed.

"There should be a lot of corpses buried under the Zeng family's back garden." Ji Ran frowned as he recalled the strong iron smell emanating from the soil.

But Ji Ran always felt that Qi Mu was not in the garden.

If even remains from 20 years ago were buried there, the number of bodies would be unimaginable.

Or maybe what is buried there has some special meaning.

The scene when Qi Mu was tortured before his death, and the missing piece of skull on the left forehead of the half skull, also made Ji Ran particularly concerned...

When he died, for some reason, a piece of his skull was missing, and the missing shape looked like it had been cut off neatly.

What hatred, what vengeance? How could he treat her like this?

Hearing this, Chi Tao couldn't help but swallowing, her three bottom lines were completely refreshed.

"But...how did you know..." Chi Tao was puzzled, but suddenly she thought of Zeng Yichen's birthday and suddenly realized:

"Ah!! No wonder you suddenly agreed to attend Mr. Zeng's birthday party! So you were using this as an excuse to investigate the scene!"

Ji Ran raised his eyebrows and continued chewing the biscuits.

Chi Tao looked at the woman in front of him in astonishment. She was so awesome!

Even though he knew that he was being hunted by the Zeng family, he was still able to maintain clear logic and dare to go to investigate...

Damn it! This damn girl is really brave!

Well, thinking about it this way, I am even more grateful to have this brother-in-law.

Otherwise, a reckless and stubborn person like Professor Ji who doesn't know the consequences of his own actions would have encountered countless dangers.

Looking at it this way, Zeng Yichen is really a complete cannon fodder clown...

But Chi Tao will never sympathize with that stupid guy again!

No matter what, he not only watched others frame Professor Ji and did not trust Professor Ji, but also asked the little girl to prove her innocence in public and even pushed Professor Ji into the river in public.

Those are all facts!

"Then if Mr. Qi's... ahem, is really at Zeng's house, how can we get close enough to retrieve it?" Chi Tao became distressed again.

The enemy hid the evidence at home because no one dared to go to their home to investigate. So how could they go in and investigate?

Especially when the number of corpses is so huge, even if we sneak in, there will be no chance to dig them out one by one for examination, right?

"No rush, let's dig out the hidden history first." Ji Ran said calmly.

"You mean... the history of the development of the Zeng family warlords?" Chi Tao guessed.

"Also," Ji Ran said calmly, "about Qi Mu's history."

"Ah?" Chi Tao was puzzled.

Ji Ran explained slowly: "Zeng Nian has been a general for only about 20 years, which means that he has been involved in the research of biological and chemical weapons since he took office, or even before he took office. And in the early stage of the experiment, he chose Qi Mu as a test subject. This can only mean..."

Chi Tao's eyes widened as if she understood something, "This means... he should be very familiar with Qi Mu, and he has a grudge against Qi Mu?"

"It's more than just hatred. It's probably jealousy to the extreme. And for someone of that status to hate him to the point of wanting to destroy him, it can only mean that Qi Mu's reputation and background are even higher than his, and he must have been suppressing him for a long time."

Ji Ran's voice became noticeably colder.

"How... do you know so much?" Chi Tao really couldn't keep up with Ji Ran's thinking.

"I guessed it." Ji Ran scratched his neck with a look of helplessness.

"After all, my Qi Muguang is much more handsome than that old man surnamed Zeng, so it's normal for him to be jealous and crazy, right?"

Chi Tao was speechless.

What man would be jealous just because someone is more handsome than him?

It does make sense that someone is jealous of someone's ability and power and then cruelly kills the other person.

That does mean that Qi Mu's identity during his lifetime must not have been simple, and we should be able to find some clues by digging into history.

"I can handle this matter myself. I tell you this so that you can be mentally prepared. You don't need to meddle in it." Ji Ran looked at Chi Tao seriously.

"That's impossible! You're alone..." Chi Tao retorted anxiously.

"I can do a job 100 points by myself. With you, I can only do 50 points. Do you understand?" Ji Ran said lightly.

"..." Chi Tao pursed her lips.

They openly or secretly blame her for being a drag!

"Okay, go back now. Let me know when the discussion meeting is scheduled. Also, don't tell anyone about what happened today."

Ji Ran finished eating the cookies on his plate and was about to go to the kitchen to wash the dishes.

"Hey!" Chi Tao grabbed her arm without thinking, staring at her pretty yet conscienceless face in disbelief.

Damn! This damn girl! She was frightened and fainted just now! She is being ordered to leave now!

Heartless and unjust!

Ji Ran blinked calmly:

"What? Aren't you afraid of ghosts? Why don't you want to leave now?"

"Ahem..." Chi Tao's face suddenly became embarrassed.

This damn girl, why did she poke someone's lungs?

"Oh! I was not mentally prepared just now. Anyone who suddenly encounters something like this will be scared! I am considered lucky!" Chi Tao defended herself.

Ji Ran glanced at her, "So what else do you want?"

"Ahem..." Chi Tao approached stealthily, "It's hard to describe what we just met. Can you let me get to know my ghost brother-in-law again?"

This is the nature of animals. They are always afraid of the unknown, but after coming into contact with the unknown, their excitement and curiosity will far outweigh their fear.

"Brother-in-law?" Ji Ran inexplicably caught these two words.

"You are younger than me and you are my younger sister. Won't your future husband be my brother-in-law?" Chi Tao explained seriously.

These words really touched Ji Ran's heart, and she couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth.

"Let's go, let's go!" Chi Tao immediately took her arm and wanted to go into the kitchen with her.

Ji Ran pulled her back, opened the door without hesitation, and squeezed out two words from the crack of the door:

"Goodbye."

Just because Chi Tao fainted due to her poor psychological quality, Qi Mu, who was already very sensitive and had low self-esteem, felt even more guilty and sad.

And she just used that tone, calling her Qi Mu a "dirty thing". How sad would he be if he heard it?

If you still want to go in and harass him now, forget it!

"Eh!!!"

Chi Tao was stunned by this decisive action of kicking her out.

Wow! This damn girl actually puts love before friendship!
