Chapter 609: That Was Too Easy

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

The group of them arrived in Zhang Houfa’s house in no time.

They parked their cars outside the villa and walked in.

As Xu Siqi died in this big villa, Zhang Houfa was busy handling his angry wife. According to hearsay, Zhang Houfa’s wife had already given up and stopped meddling with his affairs many years ago, turning a blind eye to it. However, as this became a homicide case that everyone knew about, it turned into a big scandal in her eyes.

When Xiang Wan and the detectives arrived, Mr and Mrs Zhang were quarreling with each other.

Although they were downstairs, they could hear the shrill screams and shouts that came from upstairs.

The butler received them awkwardly.

Bai Muchuan flashed his police officer badge. “We’re here to ask Zhang Houfa to assist in our investigations by answering some questions.”

“Oh, okay. Detectives, please wait for a moment.”

The butler quickly made his way up.

Soon, Zhang Houfa and his wife came down together.

Mrs Zhang was smiling and holding her husband’s arm while she walked down the stairs elegantly with him. That calm and composed look of hers was as though she had been transformed into another person by a magic trick. If they hadn’t heard their quarreling sounds earlier, anyone who saw them would think they were a loving couple.

“Detectives, please sit down and talk.”

Mrs Zhang received them warmly. She knew how to socialize and carried herself well. She was also very attentive. She even served them water or tea after asking for their preferences. She also prepared cut fruits for them and only said good things about her husband. She perfectly played the part of a virtuous wife. Zhang Houfa also seemed different from the night before. He behaved as though nothing had happened and was back to his usual businesslike self. It seemed like he was never involved with Xu Siqi.

They were really good at acting.

Both of them were cool and unfazed.

Bai Muchuan and Xiang Wan exchanged glances with each other.

“CEO Zhang, we are here for two things. Besides inspecting the crime scene, we also wanted to look at where Xu Siqi had stayed before her death…”

It was a little awkward to ask this question in his wife’s presence.

Nonetheless, they were detectives, not his clients.

Zhang Houfa cleared his throat twice and took a look at his wife. “Umm, this, Little Xu should be staying… staying at…”

Quan Shaoteng didn’t have much patience to hear him hem and haw.

He squinted his eyes and sent a cold glare over, directly interrupting Zhang Houfa. “Our investigations indicate that Xu Siqi has been staying here for the past two days. She was by your side whenever you went out. Please cooperate with our job.”

Cough, cough, cough! Zhang Houfa coughed even louder.

He dared not face his wife’s piercing gaze but took a handkerchief to wipe his mouth and called for the butler.

“Is there such a thing?”

“Ah?” The butler was confused for an instant.

Although he was cursing Zhang Houfa inside, the butler immediately regained his calm composure. “Yes Mr Zhang,” he nodded and bowed. “Miss Xu had stayed here for the past two days as she wanted to talk about the new drama.”

“I see,” replied Zhang Houfa and lifted a hand. “Bring the detectives to the guest room she stayed in.”

Butler: “…Yes.”

Zhang Houfa could really act!

He appeared as if he knew nothing.

Xiang Wan was controlling her urge to laugh.

Such behavior… he could only deceive himself.

“Wait!” Mrs Zhang suddenly stopped the butler and looked at Bai Muchuan and the group of them warmly. “No matter which room Miss Xu stayed at, you have to cooperate with them seriously, understand?”

“…Yeah.”

What a magnanimous woman.

She knew that Xu Siqi had been sleeping with her husband, yet she could cooperate with the police so calmly.

Xiang Wan was puzzled and curious about the relationship between couples in the upper-class.

How exactly do they get along with each other?

Love? She felt that this should be long gone between Mr. and Mrs. Zhang.

So… what about hate?

Mrs. Zhang told the butler to cooperate with the police. Hence the employees in the villa were very willing to help.

Everyone knew that Xu Siqi had died in the swimming pool. Now that the police came up the stairs, all the doors of the rooms were opened for their inspection.

Soon, the butler stopped before a guest room.

“Miss Xu had been staying here for the past two days…”

So she actually didn’t sleep in the master bedroom with Zhang Houfa?

Xiang Wan raised her eyebrows and followed Bai Muchuan inside the guest room.

As Xu Siqi only stayed there for two days, there wasn’t much of her stuff in there. There was a makeup bag left on the dresser and a small suitcase in the guest room, lying quietly in a corner… It was similar to her rented apartment. The room was clean and tidy.

Bai Muchuan put on the gloves slowly. “Search!”

“Yes, Sir!”

The room was not very big.

In addition, as there were a few of them, they were rather fast.

Her small luggage was not locked so it was easy to open it.

As the deceased was a female, Xiang Wan was tasked to search through Xu Siqi’s belongings.

It basically contained her clothes and personal belongings. There was nothing special…

Xiang Wan adjusted her gloves and unzipped the compartment in the luggage.

There was a document with a plastic cover inside the compartment. When Xiang Wan touched it, she felt a little glad and pulled out the document gently.

“A script?”

Bai Muchuan heard that and turned to look at her.

“You found it?”

So easy?

Xiang Wan was a little taken aback. She couldn’t believe it.

“Quick, look at its content!”

It was an unnamed document.

It was a bit of a stretch to say that it was a script.

This was because this script only consisted of a few pages and it was printed on ordinary A4 paper. In this script, it told of a very simple story without giving a background nor a proper closure to the story… But in this short story, the leading character was known as Xu Siqi…

The cause of death startled them as in this short story, the female lead had drowned in a swimming pool.

The short story was rather detailed in the content. It told of Xu Siqi becoming Zhang Houfa’s woman, and consequently being killed by Feng Yingjun, a man who liked her… what happened before and after her death was exactly the same as reality.

“There’s actually a thing! D*rn!”

Quan Shaoteng also looked at the script.

“How could there be such a strange thing? It’s actually impressive!”

“Even if it was a premeditated murder, it shouldn’t be exactly the same.”

“Exactly! I’ve watched so many crime genre dramas but nothing was as exciting as this…”

“Who wrote the script?”

“How did he manipulate all this?”

“Even if he could manipulate Feng Yingjun, it shouldn’t be possible that he could do the same to Zhang Houfa?”

Everyone began voicing out their opinions.

They started to become skeptical of the reliability of the script.

Bai Muchuan walked around the room with the script. Aside from a cold aura, he was expressionless. “Just like what Laowu said during the meeting. The other party need not manipulate Zhang Houfa, for he, is Zhang Houfa…”

“Ah!”

“Of course, this is what the other party wanted us to see.” Bai Muchuan let out a sneer. “Don’t all of you feel that this room is too clean and tidy?”

Indeed, it was basically spotless.

Besides some simple clothing, there wasn’t anything else.

The most suspicious thing was that they couldn’t even find any fingerprints inside the room.

A glint flashed past Ding Yifan’s eyes and he looked towards Bai Muchuan. “So, Captain Bai is saying that…”

“Someone put the script into her luggage after her death,” Xiang Wan chimed in with a half-smile and propped up her forehead, “If Xu Siqi saw this script right from the beginning, she wouldn’t have gone to the pool.”
