"I've finished recording." Sui Yi came to Uncle Jiang's rescue: "I heard that the food in the police station can ward off evil spirits and nourish people, so I came here to broaden my horizons." He also tasted a few bites.

Qin Bai...what the hell is exorcism?

"Oh, Uncle Qin..." Sui Yi suddenly leaned close to Qin Bai and asked with sparkling eyes, "When did you start investigating the case at the mall?"

Uncle Qin?

Does he look like an uncle already?

"This afternoon," Qin Bai replied without understanding the reason.

He has just finished a case, and if nothing unexpected happens, he can focus on this case in the afternoon.

"Then take me along?" Sui Yi said excitedly, "Uncle Qin, you don't know, I've liked detective movies since I was a kid."

"I've seen The Chamber of Secrets, The Prestige, The Messenger from Hell, The Invisible Guest, A Pair of Embroidered Shoes, and The Ring. I've seen all of them."

Qin Bai's hand holding the chopsticks trembled. If he remembered correctly, The Ring should be a horror movie, right?

As a girl, isn't it normal for you to get so excited when talking about these horror movies?

"Uncle Qin, you don't know that my dream since childhood is to be a criminal policeman and fight with those criminals. You can't discourage the enthusiasm of a flower bud of the motherland who is determined to eliminate harm for the people."

Isn’t it said that these police officers like young people who are positive and willing to serve the motherland?

Should she be able to win the young man's favor by saying this?

"Also, I'm an eyewitness. If you take me with you, maybe I can reconstruct the crime scene for you."

"Uncle Xiao Qin, we finally have one day off in high school, but I'm giving it up for this case. Let's just say, where can we find a good boy like me who hates evil and actively cooperates with the police in solving cases?"

Qin Bai almost couldn't bear it as Uncle Jiang kept talking one sentence after another. He glanced at Uncle Jiang who had a helpless look on his face.

He thought he might have found out why Uncle Jiang took so long to take notes for her.

This girl, not only talks a lot, but is also very difficult to deal with. She is a real headache!

In the end, Qin Bai took Sui Yi to the mall.

Putting aside the fact that Sui Yi was difficult to deal with, she was an eyewitness at the crime scene. Her presence would be of great help to them in understanding the situation at the crime scene.

The area in the shopping mall where the crime occurred has been sealed off, and Sui Yi also demonstrated to Qin Bai and others what he saw and heard at the time.

It's a pity that the waiter who first discovered it asked for leave because he was too frightened. Otherwise, Qin Bai and others would have a more detailed understanding of the situation at that time.

When Qin Bai took two criminal police officers to investigate the shopping mall and look for suspicious points, Sui Yi had already disappeared.

Qin Bai didn't care. When they finished work and wanted to look for Suiyi, Suiyi came out by himself.

Qin Bai didn't know how she managed to be so punctual.

Sitting in the police car, Sui Yi frowned and was surprisingly quiet, which made the people who had seen her talkative nature feel a little uncomfortable.

"Any findings?" Qin Bai asked casually.

"I think there's something fishy going on here." Sui Yi said seriously, "I just talked to the waiter's colleagues, and they said that the waiter went to the emergency staircase under the orders of their manager."

"Their manager said there were some goods there for her to move over."

It is not uncommon for shopping malls to transport goods on the emergency stairs sometimes, but what is unusual is when their manager asks her to move goods.

"I asked around, and the waiters said they had already sorted out all the goods early this morning, and they were wondering why they suddenly had to add more goods."

"It would have been fine if they suddenly added more goods, but they were so ruthless that they happened to catch a murder scene."

"Isn't this too much of a coincidence?"

Anyway, Sui Yi doesn’t believe that there are such coincidences in this world.

"Are you saying that the manager planned to let the waiter discover the crime scene?" asked a police officer.

"I have this suspicion." Sui Yi thought for a moment, "Don't they say that when investigating a case, we can't let go of any suspicious details? I think we should investigate that manager as well. Maybe we'll find something unexpected."

"Also, I went to the monitoring room and checked the surveillance footage from that period."

"Although no one except Cheng Xi and her sister went in and out during that time, I saw on the surveillance video that Cheng Ying went in first with a nervous look on her face. She was holding her bag with her hands so tightly that it was deformed, as if she knew what was going to happen next."

"Apart from being angry, Cheng Xi didn't seem to be out of control in any way."

"Do you suspect that Cheng Ying brought the knife in herself?" Qin Bai was the one who reacted quickly.

"Yes!" Sui nodded and said, "So far, Cheng Ying, the victim, is much more suspicious than Cheng Xi, the suspect."

"But there's no way Cheng Ying would be so stupid as to use a knife to frame her sister and kill herself, right?" a police officer questioned.

"Maybe she herself didn't expect to die." Sui Yi expressed his opinion: "I think we should broaden our thinking."

"This case directly implicates the Cheng Xi sisters. Now that the two sisters are gone, who is the biggest beneficiary?"

"Xiao Li..." Qin Bai ordered neatly: "Go check the relationship between Cheng Xi and Cheng Ying immediately."

"We're already investigating Captain Qin," a police officer replied. "So far, we've only found out that the sisters lost their parents when they were young, and they depend on each other for survival and have a very good relationship."

"Cheng Xi dropped out of school at a young age and worked hard in society. Her sister Cheng Ying graduated from university under her sister's protection and is currently working in her sister and brother-in-law's company."

"Wait..." Sui Yi immediately said, "Does that mean Cheng Xi has a company?"

The police officer nodded. Qin Bai obviously thought the same thing as her. He glanced at Sui Yi and said without hesitation, "Go check the details of Xiao Mingyuan and this company right away."

The police officer nodded.

"Uncle police..." Just as everyone was silently thinking about the case, Sui Yi said, "At this time, could it be time for dinner?"

There was nothing else to do, so Suiyi planned to have a quick meal and then leave.

Qin Bai looked at the bright sun outside. Although it was not yet dinner time, it would be nice to send the little girl away early.

Sui Yi wanted to get on the car after eating, which left Qin Bai speechless.

Are all little girls these days so...frugal?

"Where do you live? I'll ask someone to take you there." Qin Bai planned to find someone idle to take her back.

"Dingsheng Manor." Sui Yi gave the address with a smile.

Qin Bai paused for a moment, then said nonchalantly: "I just happened to be going to that area to investigate a case, so I'll take you back on the way."

Qin Bai picked up the car keys and walked out first. Sui Yi followed him and looked at his back with his eyes narrowed.
