After Su Wanning left, Bai Rong needed to calm herself down.
She picked up a cup of tea and stood by the window, looking at the passersby walking past.
Some were smiling brightly and cheerfully while others were pale and had a gloomy face. There were also those whose expressions were indifferent, as if they had concealed all their emotions.
She had seen all kinds of people, with different expressions, moods and mental states.
Perhaps, this was life.
Everyone who arrived in this world was lucky. God gave them a chance to experience life.
In life, the ups and downs, happiness, sorrows, worries and leisure were fleeting.
People who were easily satisfied could feel blissful after eating a meat bun.
Those who were not would become unhappy even when sitting behind a table full of food, wondering if there was something missing.
She should discard all her emotions and desires to not feel exhausted.
One must lose something in order to gain another.
Even if she had missed Gu Mingchen, she might meet another good man in the future.
Perhaps it was really time to give up.
Her phone rang.
When she saw that it was from Gu Mingchen, she picked the call up calmly.
“Bai Rong, do you think it’s easier to ask the chief for help or your boyfriend?” Gu Mingchen asked in a deep voice.
Bai Rong was in a daze.
His words almost messed up her mind and affected her decision.
She remained silent for a while. “One should know one’s limits. I know that we don’t belong in the same world.”
“Then why did you call me?” Gu Mingchen hung up the call unhappily.
Bai Rong was speechless.
It was good that he hung the call up on his own accord. Otherwise, her subsequent words might not be so pleasant.
Bai Rong kept her phone into her bag and walked to the entrance of Mu Xiaosheng’s office. She knocked on the door and entered.
Mu Xiaosheng stood in front of the whiteboard anxiously. When he noticed Bai Rong entering, it was like he had seen a ray of hope. “Come, come! Help me analyze this. Who killed Tony? Deputy Commander Su wants me to solve the case within three days. How is that possible?”
Bai Rong scanned the whiteboard. “Is Su Wanning a suspect?”
“She does have a motive to kill Tony because she contracted syphilis from him. The woman even said that she wanted to kill him. But after thinking through it, she felt that it was not worth it, so she let him go.”
“When did she let Tony leave? When did he die and when did he meet anyone in between?” Bai Rong asked.
“There’s no news from the forensic department yet. Do you know Chen Jing Apartment? Su Wanning rented a serviced apartment there so that it was convenient for her to date. Tony went there at 10 p.m.. The weird thing is that there was no recording that showed Tony leaving Su Wanning’s room. However, the cleaner discovered his corpse in a public toilet at 5 a.m. the next day.” Mu Xiaosheng said, feeling perplexed.
“Let the policemen search Su Wanning’s room and see if there are any traces of blood on the floor. You can also ask Su Wanning if she actually saw Tony leave her room. Plus, you should go to the police station instead of staying in your office. They can obtain the information from the forensic department immediately and explain the details to you. It’ll help you solve the case.” Bai Rong said with a smile.
“I’ll go to the police station later. The forensic department’s report should be out soon.” Mu Xiaosheng threw his pen down.
