*Xin Lei* A ten-year-old daughter could actually kill her own mother…it was hard for me to believe. Zhang Chao seemed distressed as he spoke again. "You can't even understand how shocked I was. Just the day before, everything seemed alright. Xiulan...she seemed and behaved like any other normal child. We found hope, but Qiuyue...she was dead. She wasn't breathing anymore. Xiulan was sitting at her side as if nothing happened. She was smiling as if nothing ever happened. Even I was nauseated with the…

*Xin Lei* There was a long stretch of silence after Zhang Chao said such shocking news. It was hardly believable. Liao Huifang had her mouth dropped wide open. Yuan furrowed his brows while Bai Li and Tian Song seemed expressionless as if it was not much of a shock to them. I looked at Zhang Ning, dumbfounded. I typed. "You said that you were twelve when Mrs. Zhang Qiyue died. By how many years is your sister younger than you?" Zhang Ning nervously said, "Two…" I blinked my eyes. I typed. "You mean…

*Xin Lei* Bai Li said, "I kind of had my suspicions on Duan Deming since Ming died. Once I figured out that he was a mole, Tian Song's identity became clear to me." I pouted. I typed. "I see. That is why you stopped me from telling about the recording to Duan Deming." He nodded. Somebody knocked on the door, and I saw Yuan standing at the entrance. "Can I come in?" "Of course." Bai Li said. Yuan said, "I heard that you were here, so I came by to check on you. How are you feeling now?" Bai Li slowly…

--- *Xin Lei* I was keeping a tight watch over Bai Li, who laid on the bed unconscious. Yes, right now, we were at the hospital. Dawn was just about to break out, and the first ray of sunshine was just beginning to faintly light the ward. I held his hand firmly in my palms. I stared at his handsome face, which now looked tired and hurt. I bit my lip. I remembered his state I saw when Tian Song, Liao Huifang, and I barged in the scene. --- That strange woman...As expected, I saw that same mysterious…

--- *Bai Li* It was silence as I revealed everything. I could only hear the sound of the wind brushing past me. I said, "I said what I wanted to. Now your turn. Why do you want to kill Zhang Ning?" It said nothing for a while. I didn't have time. Zhang Ning might be bleeding, and if this went on, then, she could pass out. I heard the pitter-patter of that person typing. "Because I like it." I said nothing. Shouldn't it like killing me more than her? Zhang Ning gasped again. "Ah... pain…" She…

*Xin Lei* I looked at him and raised my brow. I smiled and typed. "A little bit." I pursed my lips. I typed again. "We are sorry that we misunderstood you." Liao Huifang coughed a bit. Tian Song shrugged. "I understand." I thought for a moment. "I heard what Duan Deming confessed. So I also understand that you were innocent. But where did you want to take us to Andingzhen?" "To meet Zhen." I widened my eyes. I furiously typed. "Big brother? You wanted Bai Li and me to meet big…

---A few minutes before--- *Xin Lei* When that woman escaped, I couldn't chase behind her anymore. I had to find Liao Huifang. I was worried if any enemy caught her. I walked in the direction where I heard her voice calling me the last time. It was dark, and I had to use my flashlight to make my way. After walking and stumbling through the mess, I heard some voices from a distance. I paused in my steps and narrowed my eyes. It seemed to be an argument. I made no sound as I walked again. I…

--- *Bai Li* I asked, "Duan Deming works for you, right?" I was sure of it by now. We misunderstood the whole thing from the beginning. It was never Tian Song. It was Duan Deming. But once again, I heard no answer from the one standing in front of me. Why wasn't it talking? Why did it attack Zhang Ning? "Bai Li…" I heard Zhang Ning mumble. "I...I don't understand...what, boss? Why is it attacking me? And Duan Deming? The cop?" "Yes. The boss behind those murders in Natural Park." I sensed her…

--- "Meet Tian Song - an undercover cop whose real identity is an officer working in the Chinese Intelligence Services." Liao Huifang widened her eyes in utter shock. I-Intelligence services… "Wait, what! Intelligence Services!?" She unconsciously blurted out loudly. She looked at Tian Song in disbelief. "Y-you are an officer?" It was still hard to digest everything. Duan Deming was thoroughly enjoying this. "Yes. He is from the Chinese Intelligence Bureau. Their noble work is to gather…

--- Duan Deming laughed in amusement as he looked at Liao Huifang's frozen expression. She stood shocked as if a bolt of thunder struck her hard. Duan Deming… She couldn't say anything for a few moments. But it then registered that it was the truth. "You...you were sis's b-boyfriend? The person she was chatting with at that time...was you?" Duan Deming chuckled sinisterly. "Yes, little sister. It's yours, truly. I was behind the other side of the chat, talking and whispering sweet nothings to your…
