Chapter 504: That Girl

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

“Mm?” Xiang Wan and Bai Muchuan exchanged glances. Both of them felt that Feng Kui’s intelligence should be higher than what the neighbors had thought, or rather, a different soul resided in his heart, it was a soul only he could understand.

“I know a lot more.” Xiang Wan smiled faintly. “Your dad’s not a good person. He used to hit your mom a lot and even hit you as well… You have good relations with your mom but hated your dad to the core. You wished he was dead…”

The changes in Feng Kui’s expression got more obvious.

He reacted so strongly that even Bai Muchuan and Xiang Wan was a little shocked.

He suddenly raised his voice and shouted at Xiang Wan. “Don’t talk nonsense! You know nothing at all! Don’t listen to the ones outside, all of them only know how to spout nonsense.”

Bai Muchuan went close to Xiang Wan to shield her and said nothing.

Xiang Wan was indeed stunned for a moment when Feng Kui shouted at her. Nonetheless, she still looked at him without batting an eyelid. “You are not sad towards the death of your dad, to the extent that you are indifferent. But your reaction was very different when you saw your mom hurt… Maybe you feel uncomfortable with your dad’s death but it was not his death that bothered you but… that he would die in such a manner.”

Feng Kui stared at her, gasping and panting away.

Xiang Wan asked the same question again as this was supposedly a weak moment for him. “So, tell me, where is that girl?”

“I don’t know!” Feng Kui hugged his own head, his eyes staring wide-open like round copper bells. “I’m a simpleton. I’m just a simpleton… Don’t you all know?”

Xiang Wan opened her mouth slightly. “You always topped the classes in school, how are you a simpleton?”

Feng Kui continued to stare at her. “I got sick.”

Xiang Wan did not back down and continued to ask him. “What did you do to the girl?”

Feng Kui kept quiet.

Xiang Wan’s gaze became stern. “Your dad did something to the girl, right?”

She was observing Feng Kui’s facial expression with every word she said.

People could stay quiet and not say a word but not everyone could control their emotions enough that their mind would be calm as water no matter what others say…

Although Feng Kui did not reply to her, from Xiang Wan’s point of view, his silence was an indication that she had gotten it right.

Xiang Wan suddenly puffed a sigh. “Originally I wanted to try to help you. Confessing about it yourself and the police finding out by themselves are two different matters altogether. You’re smart, you should know that very well…”

“No! I don’t know anything.”

Feng Kui repeated that again.

He stared at her, with a gaze like a burning fireball.

He kept staring at Xiang Wan. The look in his eyes shocked Bai Muchuan enough to use an arm to block Xiang Wan from him. “Forget it! Since he refused to talk, let’s bring him back and interrogate him slowly!”

She knew that Bai Muchuan said that deliberately.

Seeing that Feng Kui’s psychological resistance reached its peak, Xiang Wan pushed Bai Muchuan’s arm away slowly and looked into Feng Kui’s tired and listless eyes seriously.

“Tell me what happened, I can help you.”

“…” Feng Kui looked up at her.

“Tell me what happened, I can help you.”

“…”

In the quiet atmosphere, there was still the lingering smell of something burnt.

Xiang Wan inhaled a breath. “Tell me what happened, I can help you—”

That was the third time she repeated these words.

Whenever she repeated it, the certainty in her tone was heavier.

For someone who was mentally fragile and on the verge of collapse, it was impossible to resist such tenacity.

“You won’t help me!” It seemed like a wandering soul was residing in Feng Kui’s drifting and listless gaze. “Nobody can… nobody can help me…”

Xiang Wan just gave a faint smile. “I can.”

She turned to Bai Muchuan, “Help me get a stool please.”

Bai Muchuan: “…”

Taking a deep look at the woman beside him, he “obediently” brought a stool over and stood by her side guarding her…

A few seconds later, he suddenly had a strange feeling.

Why did he have a feeling that he was her bodyguard?

Xiang Wan did not know what Sir Little Bai was feeling at that moment.

Her attention was now on Feng Kui.

“Tell me what happened, I’ll hear you out.”

“… Will you, really help me?”

“Really. Not only I can help you, I can help your mom as well… Your mom is the most important person to you, right?”

“Yes.”

“She got hurt because of you. Don’t you feel sad for your mom?”

“I do.” Feng Kui lowered his head. “But how did you know about this?”

“Before your mom was sent to the hospital, she raised her hand and pointed at you. That was to tell you not to say anything. By raising her hand high up for you to see, she told you that she was already badly hurt for your sake. That was her sacrifice for you, a sacrifice that she made in order to protect you. You do not want to disappoint your mom… Both of you are trying to keep a secret about this girl. And this secret, has a lot to do with you.”

That sounded confusing and complicated.

Bai Muchuan’s eyelids jumped a few times as he listened to that.

Feng Kui on the other hand, was so calm as he glanced at Xiang Wan with a faraway look.

“When you’re studying in school, do you always top the class?”

He changed the topic rather abruptly.

“I’m also a student with good academic results, but I don’t think that coming in first is a good thing,” replied Xiang Wan, “when you get first, you start worrying about not getting it the next time and want to hold on to it. You would undoubtedly create a lot more stress for yourself than the stress that came from others. You have to put in a lot more effort just to keep the first position. I feel that, from the moment we get the first position, we won’t be happy anymore…”

Feng Kui’s eyes brightened up, as though he found someone who held the same opinion as him.

“You’re right. Why must we be number one? What’s so good about coming in first…”

“We can get praised by our parents,” replied Xiang Wan, “teachers will like you, classmates will be envious of you. You can get so much more…”

Feng Kui said, “I liked to study.”

“So you didn’t continue your studies?”

“Yeah.”

“Why didn’t you continue?”

“I… couldn’t study anymore.”

“You can study so well. Why didn’t you continue to study?”

“You’re right that he’s a bad person. Thus, I couldn’t continue studying anymore.”

‘He’, was he referring to his dad?

Xiang Wan furrowed her eyebrows for a moment. “Do you still like to read?”

“Yeah…”

“What kind of books?”

“Online novels.”

“I like to read online novels too. Whose books do you prefer?”

“I’ve read many works of various authors. But my favorite is Second Young Master Mu…”

Xiang Wan could clearly sense that the man standing beside her went frozen for a moment.

Xiang Wan started to chat with Feng Kui. The latter was very interested in the topic of online novels that had accompanied him in his youth and lonely life. He mentioned many novels that Xiang Wan and Bai Muchuan were familiar with.

Xiang Wan would occasionally chip in a sentence or two, and her words were always able to make Feng Kui enlightened.

It felt as though he had found a confidant.

As Feng Kui continued to talk about the topic, his body gradually relaxed and he even seemed a little excited.

Xiang Wan could tell that he had relaxed and showed a pleasant smile.

“So, are you willing to believe in me?”

“Mm? I… believe you.”

“Tell me then… where did the girl go?”

“You need to tell me how you came to know about the girl first.”

“You’re into novels in the men’s genre. It’s impossible that your favorite character would be Hua Ge.”

Feng Kui glanced at the evidence bag for a moment, hesitating.

Xiang Wan knew that he was struggling inside, wondering if he should come clean with her.

She kept quiet.

And waited…

Time went trickling by.

When Xiang Wan thought that she had failed to make him open up, Feng Kui suddenly said something. “I didn’t kill her. I didn’t want to kill her…”

Eh? Xiang Wan was shocked.

In the end, it was actually a murder case?
