“It is impossible. The medical examiner also made a deduction that my mother could not be the murderer. And on the same day, my mother disappeared with my child, Coco.”
“A few days later, the police found my mother and Coco in a cold store in the old city. And judging from the scene of death, my mother had been protecting Coco. This is, there was a third person present at that time, who should be the real murderer.”
“She must know the murderer and are very familiar with the murderer.” Li Xue quickly grasped the key point: “The murderer who can make her cover up, may be among your three brothers.”
“If so, she should not be killed in the end.” Han Fei signaled Li Xue not to conclude so early: “Maybe she gave the murderer a chance to turn over a new leaf. But she completely underestimated the evil in the murderer’s heart.”
“The police thought so, but they didn’t find any evidence. Changxi disappeared after my mother died. No one knew where he went, so the neighbors speculated that he was the murderer.”
Meng Changshou shakes his head in pain: “Although he is introverted and gloomy, I know that he can’t do such a thing.”
“Meng Changxi just disappeared, if we can find his corpse, the range of suspects will be further narrowed; if not, he will probably always carry the charge of murder.” Li Xue pours Meng Changshou a glass of water, “I think he is unlikely to be a murderer. What do you think?”
“I don’t know.” Han Fei has a second sentence to say in mind that he is going to ask Meng Shi in person tonight.
Han Fei couldn't simply evaluate Meng Shi with good people or bad people. At this moment he deeply feels the complexity of human nature.
Han Fei and Li Xue leave without further disturbance.
Thinking about things in his mind, Han Fei walks out a few steps before he finds that Li Xue has been standing on the steps and does not follow.
“Are you okay?”
“Have you heard of the Human Body Puzzle? The victim’s family lives in the same building.”
“It wouldn't be such a coincidence, would it?”
“The murderer of the Human Body Puzzle has not been caught, either. The first two victims of that case were found on the fourth floor, and the deceased was a very loving couple.”
Li Xue says and walks upstairs: “Although the modus operandi of the two cases was completely different, some police suspected that the murderer of both cases was the same person.”
Li Xue stops in front of a certain door and knocks. About ten seconds later, the security door opens a crack.
A thin old man appears behind the door and looks at them: “Who are you looking for?”
“I’m a cop.” Li Xue takes out his police certificate. And then the old man reluctantly opens the door.
“I have been to the police station many times. Have you caught the murderer?” There is a hint of despair in the old man's tone.
“I have a few questions for you.” Li Xue takes out her mobile phone and opens several police programs.
When Li Xue asks the old man, Han Fei stays quietly next to her, silently looking at a photo on the wall.
The person in the photo is Wei Youfu, the role he will play in the movie.
In Perfect Life, Meng Shi lives on the third floor and Han Fei lives on the fourth floor.
In reality, Meng Shi also lives on the third floor, while the house where Wei Youfu and his wife were killed is on the fourth floor.
Han Fei now suspects that the ghost he met in the game last night is Wei Youfu's wife, the woman who was killed by the murderer in the bathroom.
The seemingly unrelated clues converge at this moment, and the point where they converged is Han Fei himself.
Through Li Xue's inquiry, Han Fei knows a lot about Wei Youfu’s family.
“They weren't the kind of people who were full of malice when they were alive.” An extremely bold idea slowly emerges in Han Fei's mind.
“If I want to live in that game full of ghosts, I need a safe home. If I can get the approval of Wei Youfu and his wife, I can live with them together!”
Han Fei stands up and sits next to the thin old man.
Under the puzzled gazes of the old man and Li Xue, Han Fei says to the old man: “Uncle Wei, Youfu and I are very good friends, can you tell me what unfulfilled wishes he still has?”
