Chapter 52: 52

Zhang Lan on the ground suddenly stormed up, picked up the knife, and slashed at Zhang Aihua. Wu Zheng had no time to react and subconsciously stood in front of Zhang Aihua, closing his eyes and waiting for the pain to come.

But after waiting for a long time, Zhang Lan’s knife did not fall. He turned his head and saw Zhang Lan standing behind him with a painful expression, motionless, with a paper talisman on his shoulder.

Wu Zheng breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Ling Hua’an, and said gratefully, “thank you, Mr. Ling. ”

Ling Hua’an responded coldly, “It’s not you that I want to save, but her.”

Ling Hua’an bit his finger, chanted the incantation silently, and tapped Zhang Lan’s forehead. After hearing a scream, Zhang Lan’s body fell softly to the ground again, and a female ghost appeared in front of Ling Hua’an. Her abdomen was also cut open, the same shape as Shen Xin and others.

“Think clearly, if you really kill her, you will be caught like the previous female ghost to hell, and your chance of reincarnation will be gone.”

“I want to avenge my child. He died so miserably, this woman deserves to die!” The female ghost looked at Zhang Aihua angrily and said,  “she also wants to kill you too, so don’t stop me!”

“Sowing evil causes evil, and she will not be able to escape. Why should you be greedy for a moment and ruin the chance of reincarnation? You still have a new life waiting for you. In the next life, you will have a husband, children, and a happy life. Do you think it’s worth giving it up for revenge?

“But they are so hateful!” There was hesitation in the female ghost’s tone.

“Believe me, they will be judged by the law in the near future, and they will also enter hell and be tortured after death. This is the evil result of what they sow.”

“Really? You’re not lying to me?” The female ghost once again loosened her tongue1.

“You can stay with me for a while to see  yourself what happens to them.”

The female ghost hesitated for a moment and said, “Okay, I believe you.”

Just as Ling Hua’an and the female ghost communicated, Zhang Aihua suddenly grabbed the knife in Zhang Lan’s hand and rushed toward Ling Hua’an.

“Mr. Ling, be careful! “Several female ghosts reminded him loudly.

Ling Hua’an was taken aback. Just as he was about to move, he was suddenly grabbed by someone, followed by a slight sound of flesh being pierced.

“Ah-Zheng ……” The knife fell to the ground, Zhang Aihua panicked and covered Wu Zheng’s wound. She cried, “Ah-Zheng, how can you… don’t die, I don’t want you to die, come on, come on…”

Wu Zheng’s body fell slowly. Ling Hua’an quickly helped him, “there are people outside the villa. Ask them to come and help, take him to the hospital, hurry up!”

Zhang Aihua’s tears were like beads with a broken thread. He looked at Wu Zheng then Ling Hua’an again and staggered out of the villa.

Wu Zheng looked at Ling Hua’an and asked weakly, “Ling…Mr. Ling, I did all this. I am willing to pay with my life. Can you…can you let my wife go?”

Ling Hu’an sighed and said, “Mr. Wu, I have said a long time ago that it depends on your karma, and no one can escape. If it’s not your karma, you can’t replace it. Zhang Aihua sowed an evil cause, and naturally, she had to taste consequences for herself.”

“If…if I could have stopped her in the first place….perhaps this would not have happened. Mr. Ling, does karma really…can’t be replaced?”

“It can’t be replaced.”

“Ling…Mr. Ling, I really…love her, but this love has no bottom line, so…that’s why it leads to bad consequences, it’s all my fault…I…”

Wu Zheng’s body completely softened, and Ling Hua’an understood that he had no possibility of living. He couldn’t help sighed in his heart.

“Ah-Zheng!” Zhang Aihua rushed over, hugged Wu Zheng’s body tightly, crying out, “Save him quickly, please save him!”

Jiang Chengyan rushed toward Ling Hua’an’s side and asked nervously, “Hua’an, there’s blood on you, where did you get hurt?”

Ling Hua’an shook his head and said, comforted, “I’m fine. The blood is not mine.”

Yan Yu squatted down, checking Wu Zheng’s nose then  his heartbeat again, “He’s dead.”

“Impossible! How could Ah-Zheng die? Ah-Zheng can’t possibly die, you are all liars!” Zhang Aihua’s expression fell into madness, and it was only a matter of time before his emotions collapsed.

Ling Hua’an said faintly, “Zhang Aihua, do you love Wu Zheng?”

“I love him, no one loves him more than me!” Zhang Aihua shouted hysterically, trying to prove his love for Wu Zheng in this way.

Ling Hua’an did not respond. He turned his head to Jiang Chengyan and said, “Call someone over, I’ll leave this place to you.”

“Okay.” Jiang Chengyan looked at Yan Yu and said, “Yan Yu, please take care of him…”

“I’ll take care of him, don’t bother.” Yan Yu went forward to hold Ling Hua’an’s arm and said, “Let’s go, I’ll take you back to the store.”

Ling Hua’an smiled helplessly, “Yan Yu.”

Yan Yu’s eyes flashed sadly, and he said, “Sorry, not next time. ”

“Forget it, let’s go.” The two walked to the door, Ling Hua’an turned to look at Jiang Chengyan, “Captain Jiang, come and find me after getting off work.”

Jiang Chengyan raised the corner of his mouth, hurriedly responded, and said, “See you after getting off work.”

Ling Hua’an turned around, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, Yan Yu’s eyes became darker when he saw this, and he silently helped Ling Hua’an out of the villa.

***

On December 19, 3020, in the interrogation room of the criminal investigation team, Jiang Chengyan and Yao Min walked in one after another. Zhang Aihua, who was sitting in a chair, looked up at the two, before lowering her head again.

Jiang Chengyan sat down on the chair and looked at Zhang Aihua silently. Her hair was thinning and her face was pale. She looked a lot older than before—didn’t look like a thirty-year-old woman at all.

Jiang Chengyan asked bluntly, “Shen Xin, Su Meiqi, Wang Tianran, Guo Xiaomei, Li Xiaoting, Zhang Hanlei… These six people were all killed by you, right?”

Zhang Aihua hung her head, her fingers unconsciously stroking the red spider lily flower tattoo on her wrist, and said softly, “I want to see the man who appeared at my house that day.”

Jiang Chengyan frowned subconsciously, and said, “Zhang Aihua, we have solid evidence now. Questioning you now is us giving you a chance for leniency, and I hope you don’t miss it.”

Zhang Aihua repeated, “I want to see the man who appeared at my house that day.”

“Zhang Aihua, we searched your home and found the operating room in your basement where we detected the bloodstains of six of them which is enough to convict you.”

Zhang Aihua looked up at Jiang Chengyan, and said again and again, “I want to see the man who appeared in my house that day.”

Jiang Chengyan frowned and asked, “Why do you want to see him?”

Zhang Aihua pulled out a stiff smile at the corner of her mouth and said, “You’re afraid that I’ll hurt him?”

Jiang Chengyan looked at Zhang Aihua silently, and after a long time, he said, “We need to ask his permission.”

“You haven’t found Wang Tianran’s body yet, right? Just let me see him, and I’ll tell you where the body is.” Zhang Aihua’s eyes flashed an inevitable light.

Jiang Chengyan looked at the time and said, “He is sleeping now, he can’t meet you.”

“It’s okay, I can wait. But I won’t say another word until he comes to see me. So, Captain Jiang, you don’t need to waste your with me.”

Jiang Chengyan frowned and looked at Zhang Aihua silently for a while before standing up and saying, “Yao Min, let’s go. She’s right, we don’t need to waste time here.”

Seeing Jiang Chengyan open the door and walk out, Yao Min kept looking at Zhang Aihua before following him out of the interrogation room.

“Captain, what are you going to do? Will you let Ling Dage come to see her?”

Jiang Chengyan said with a wry smile, “we really haven’t found Wang Tianran’s body. We need her to speak, so we can only trouble Hua’an.”

“Hua’an,” Yao Min teasingly winked, she smiled and said, “It’s so affectionate. Captain, when will you officially introduce him to us.”

Jiang Chengyan’s face heated up and he snapped, “what’s with the introduction? Haven’t you known each other for so long?”

“How can it be the same! We know that he is the owner of the grocery store, but not him as our captain’s boyfriend. So we still need a formal introduction.”

You little girl, why are you so nosy! Have you finished your work?”

“Captain, you said that you are a 30-year-old man. How can you blush easily? You are more innocent than me, making me embarrassed to joke with you.”

Jiang Chengyan tapped angrily on Yao Min’s forehead, “You still know you are a girl, huh, you said that you think about all kinds of nonsense all day long. No wonder you are 25 years old and haven’t found a boyfriend yet.”

“Not you too Captain. Don’t you think about how long you have been single, and still have the nerve to say that to me.”

“Little girl, do you think I can’t punish you?”

Seeing that Jiang Chengyan was about to become angry,  Yao Min hurriedly accepted it, and said with a pleasing smile, “So, what…Captain? I still have a report to write, so I’ll leave first.”

Seeing Yaomin fleeing, Jiang Chengyan was amused. He picked up his mobile phone, looked at the time, and stuffed it back into his pocket. In fact, they already have enough evidence to convict Zhang Aihua. The reason for the trial is not only to follow the process but also need to ask about the whereabouts of Wang Tianran’s body. Sooner or later, it won’t be an obstacle, so he doesn’t want to disturb Ling Hua’an’s rest for now.

At four o’clock in the afternoon, Ling Hua’an was practicing his calligraphy in his study when his phone on the table suddenly vibrated. Wang Lei next to him looked at the name displayed on the screen and said, “Laoban, it’s Captain Jiang.”

After Ling Hua’an finished writing the last stroke, he fumbled to put the brush away, picked up the phone and listened to the voice.

“Hua’an, are you still resting? I have something to tell you.”

Ling Hua’an replied, “I’m practicing calligraphy. Did Captain Jiang miss me?”

Jiang Chengyan’s face became hot. He walked to the door of the office in a hurry, locked the door, and said honestly, “I’m thinking about you.”

Ling Hua’an glanced at Wang Lei lightly, and Wang Lei understood. He turned around and walked out of the study.

Ling Hua’an raised the corners of his mouth and replied, “What do you think?”

“What do you think? Hua’an, are you teasing me again?”

“I also miss Captain Jiang. When is Captain Jiang free, so I can finish the final payment.”

Hearing this, Jiang Chengyan felt his face was burning badly, he looked at the door with a guilty conscience, “The case has not been closed yet, so the final payment needs to wait for two more days.”

Although Jiang Chengyan was not around, Ling Hua’an could still imagine that he must be blushing right now. Ling Hua’an’s heartfelt itchy like a cat scratching. Suddenly there was an urge to see him right away, “Captain Jiang, I want to see you, now, right now!”

Listening to Ling Hua’an’s low voice, Jiang Chengyan suddenly felt distracted, his thoughts were like wild weeds, out of control, “then are you convenient to come here? I happen to be looking for you on something.”

“Yes, where can I meet you?”

“The police station.”

“Are you …… sure?
