Is Jiangcheng really that unsettled lately...?

Xu Tian, ​​who had been feeling down, suddenly realized that what Ouyang Ying said made sense. It seemed that he needed to strengthen his physique and practice his skills properly.

Golden Bay Residential Community.

Zhang Qian woke up at noon.

Lately, for some reason, she often doesn't remember what happened yesterday.

Moreover, every time I woke up, my head would ache so badly it felt like it was going to explode, but Li Cui would always bring me a glass of warm water at that time.

"Get up, drink some water and take your vitamins."

Zhang Qian, looking haggard, took the pills and swallowed them with water.

"Maybe I should go to the hospital to get checked out. I feel like my memories aren't as good as they used to be."

Zhang Qian is very worried about her health. She has never experienced this before, no matter how busy she was. She is afraid that she has contracted some serious illness.

Upon hearing this, Li Cui hurriedly said, "Even if you're not sick, the hospital will find something wrong with you. There's no need to go."

Zhang Qian hesitated, "Lately, I can't remember what happened yesterday or the day before, and every time I wake up, I feel unusually tired. I'm afraid..."

"My dear daughter, all your worries are unnecessary."

Li Cui quickly interrupted Zhang Qian.

"Those cold machines in the hospital only exaggerate. You've forgotten that your father was misdiagnosed by them back then, causing widespread panic."

"You're just too tired lately. Get some rest. Mom will be with you. Everything will be alright."

As she spoke, she went to the kitchen and brought in a bowl of herbal soup.

"Drink it while it's hot, it's good for your health."

Zhang Qian didn't suspect anything and drank the medicine in one go, enduring the nausea it caused.

"How are you feeling? Are you feeling any better?" Li Cui gently comforted her.

Zhang Qian curled her lips into a smile, "It seems like I have some strength left."

"That's right. No matter what, Mom won't hurt you. It's just that you've been too tired lately."

Zhang Qian nodded and casually asked, "But I still can't remember what happened yesterday. What did I do yesterday?"

“Um…” Li Cui stammered, “I didn’t do anything. I just went to the company and came back before I finished cooking, around seven o’clock.”

Zhang Qian held her head and lay back down. "I don't want to eat anything right now. I want to sleep a little longer."

Li Cui didn't dare to disturb them any longer, closed the door and left.

Although she was physically and mentally exhausted, she couldn't fall asleep no matter what she did in bed. What was wrong with her lately? It was really just because she hadn't been getting enough rest.

Just as she was lost in thought, she suddenly noticed a bright red color peeking out from the crevice of the wardrobe.

She doesn't remember buying such brightly colored clothes.

Thinking of this, Zhang Qian got up, opened the wardrobe, and turned out the exposed corners of her clothes.

This is...blood...

Ahhhhh! !! !!

With a scream, Li Cui rushed in in a panic.

"What happened?"

When Li Cui saw Zhang Qian holding a blood-stained hem of clothing, her heart skipped a beat.

"What...what's going on?"

Zhang Qian asked with a look of horror.

Li Cui forced a smile, trying to appear calm, and took the dress from her hand.

"Oh... this probably got stained by other clothes."

Zhang Qian clearly did not believe this explanation.

"Impossible. I can tell the difference between dye and fresh blood."

"mom…"

As she spoke, Zhang Qian's eyes were vacant, gleaming with a faint, eerie light.

"Are you hiding something from me?"

Li Cuishu panicked instantly and hurriedly said, "It's all Mom's fault. I accidentally got this on my period, and I hadn't had a chance to wash it off before you came back. I was afraid you'd be disgusted with me, so I hid it first..."

Hearing this explanation, Zhang Qian felt a pang of guilt.

Regardless of what Li Cui had done in the past, now only she and her daughter depended on each other for survival. And Li Cui had taken such good care of her during this time, yet she still suspected Li Cui, which made Li Cui afraid to even tell her about such small things.

She's such a terrible daughter.

Thinking of this, Zhang Qian smiled gently, "Mom, it's just a piece of clothing, don't be so nervous in the future."

Li Cui nodded, "It's my fault for being careless. I'll be more careful in the future."

At that moment, Zhang Qian grasped Li Cui's hand, and Li Cui was instantly startled, feeling a sense of fear. Fortunately, the lights were off in the room, and Zhang Qian did not notice.

"Mom, I'm your daughter. You don't need to be so careful around me."

Li Cui swallowed hard, staring intently at the hand Zhang Qian was holding, as if Zhang Qian would kill her at any moment.

"Forget it, I'm not going to sleep either. What did you make for lunch? Can you heat it up for me?"

Li Cui suddenly stood up. "It's hot. I was worried you might be hungry. Get up, I'll get you some now."

With that, Li Cui strode away, seemingly unwilling to stay with Zhang Qian any longer.

Police station.

"Sir, the man who was stabbed last night is still being treated at the People's Hospital and shows no signs of waking up."

Xiao Jing, the policewoman who had visited Zhang Qian's house before, looked grave.

"Two assault cases have occurred recently, which suggests they are not isolated incidents. We need to re-examine this case."

The person addressed as "Master" remained composed, but his sharp eyes exuded an imposing aura of authority.

Xiao Jing hesitated for a long time before saying, "I think that Zhang Qian from last time is very problematic."

"This assault case is probably still related to her."

"Why do you think that, or is it just your own intuition?"

Xiao Jing calmly analyzed, "Yesterday's assault happened in the market opposite the Jinyu Lanwan residential area. Don't you think all of this is too much of a coincidence, Master?"

Golden Bay is where Zhang Qian lives.

The police officer nodded with satisfaction, indicating his approval of Xiao Jing.

Based on this alone, it is impossible to determine whether Zhang Qian was responsible.

Moreover, men are generally stronger than women. When I visited Zhang Qian's house last time, she was very frail and looked to weigh only about 80 pounds. How could she possibly beat an adult man?

You should know that the man who was being treated at the hospital last night weighed nearly 200 pounds and was about 1.85 meters tall.

“But she has weapons. In any situation, surprise attacks often achieve the best results,” Xiao Jing continued.

After a moment's thought, the police officer said, "It's best not to alarm Zhang Qian for now. Besides, she has connections. Without solid evidence, doing this will only alert her."

Xiao Jing retorted defiantly, "Can even the strongest background be stronger than the law? The law is impartial!"

The police officer shook his head and smiled helplessly; she was still too young…

Xiao Jing, young and energetic, worked with incredible enthusiasm, like she was on steroids. In less than an afternoon, she found all the information about Zhang Qian.

Divorced... Xu Tian...

Yes, let's start with this person!

Xiao Jing pointed happily at Xu Tian's photo.

The police officer stopped him, saying, "He's currently the president of the Xu Group. Forget about investigating him, you might even have a hard time getting a meeting with him."

"Since I chose to be a police officer, I will not be defeated by these difficulties!" Xiao Jing said with a righteous expression.
