Chapter 197 - b.l.o.o.d.y WEDDING (PART 12)
Ge Chen was trying to find the switch to move the wooden wall; that"s when he heard something heavy moving behind the wall.
"What"s this? A secret elevator? Interesting," Ge Chen wondered. After that, the wall moved and opened.
Seeing a shadow coming out, Ge Chen was prepared to take action.
However, he saw Xue Lin coming out of the dark elevator room. Relief rushed over his body.
Ge Chen stepped forward and hugged Xue Lin.
Xue Lin only saw him a glance before she was embraced. Noting how tightly he was embracing her, she said, "Were you worried? Sorry. I wanted to text you but I got caught up with something."
Ge Chen took a deep breath and told her, "Don"t do this anymore. It"s not good for my heart."
"Okay, I won"t." Xue Lin agreed. She felt apologetic. If she was in his place, she would be worried too.
Ge Chen let out a deep breath and let her go. He inquired, "What were you doing there?"
"I went to the bas.e.m.e.nt and I found this." Xue Lin raised her hand.
Ge Chen looked down and showed the mobile torch toward what Xue Lin was holding. Seeing a bag pouch on white powder, he smelt it. Then, he shortly commented, "Drug."
"Yes, I have solved the case. Aren"t I amazing?" For the first time in her life, Xue Lin felt that she was a genius.
"The police didn"t even find the secret door and elevator. If I didn"t track your GPS, I wouldn"t be able to find it either. You are a genius, my wife. You are amazing to find out something like this," Ge Chen praised his wife without restraint.
"…Ah… that"s just luck." Xue Lin avoided his gaze. She didn"t want to mention how she ended up in the elevator.
If that time, she didn"t see her third and fourth brother-in-law"s spirits pointing her the way, she wouldn"t have found out. Afterward, how she ended up in the elevator, she didn"t have any memory of it.
And now, if she tells her husband how she figured it out, he will think of her as a crazy person.
"Maybe it"s just a hallucination," Xue Lin a.s.sured herself. "I must be thinking too much about them and that"s why I felt like I was their spirits. I couldn"t be just some light. I have to wear gla.s.ses from now on."
"Your hands," Ge Chen said while catching her hand. He frowned and questioned her, "How did this happen? Where did this mark come from? Who did this?"
Xue Lin saw her white wrist turned purple in the area it was bound with the rope tightly. "That"s my cousin brother Bojin."
Ge Chen"s frown deepened as he remembered the name. "The one who was supposed to get married."
"That"s right. It"s nothing. It doesn"t hurt that much." She was thankful that he didn"t see where Fa Bojin p.r.i.c.ked her with the syringe.
"So, he is the killer," Ge Chen remarked. "Shouldn"t he be in the bas.e.m.e.nt as well? How did you get out?"
"You can be a detective with that brain of yours!" Xue Lin was surprised by the way he quickly caught up with everything. "He is still downstairs. I just knocked him out."
Ge Chen was silent for a moment. For a weak girl like her to knock out a healthy man, it was hard to digest. "How did you do that?" He was curious.
"Nothing much. Just a little magic." She once again avoided his question.
When Fa Bojin grabbed her hand and pulled it close to his face, Xue Lin knew that she was going to get the upper hand. That"s why they didn"t resist and let his guard down. Right after he injected the syringe, she snapped her finger and hypnotized him instantly.
She used the same method to hypnotize the servant and get the information out of him. However, that guy was too loyal to disclose about his master.
"I should learn how to hypnotize people without getting close to them," she pondered.
"Let"s get out of here before he wakes up." Ge Chen took her hand and got out of the house.
The moment they stepped out of the house, they saw lots of lights and police cars.
"Who called the police?" Xue Lin asked. She blinked at the lights. She could barely keep her eyes open.
"I did after entering the house," Ge Chen coolly replied.
"Clever!" she commented. Seeing Inspector Han, Xue Lin stepped forward.
"Did you know you were trespa.s.sing?" Inspector Han"s expression didn"t look good. "Something could have happened to you."
"I didn"t think anything would happen to me. I lost signal after entering the house. I couldn"t call even if I wanted to," Xue Lin gave her reason. She described what happened inside the bas.e.m.e.nt.
"What did you find?" Inspector Han interrogated her.
Xue Lin handed over the pouch. "This. I took a small portion. And then, I took several photos of the bas.e.m.e.nt using my mobile. The hidden elevator is in the storeroom. "
With Inspector Han"s signal, two police officers went inside.
"So, your cousin Fa Bojin is the killer. Did he mention who they were working with?" Inspector Han took notes of whatever she was telling.
Xue Lin shook her head. "No, he didn"t. I asked him but he avoided my question skillfully."
Inspector Han questioned her, "How did you guess that the killer was him?"
Xue Lin described, "Weren"t you guys talking about the shoe size being large but the person being lightweight? In my paternal family, there are three people who match the criteria. Fa Weiwei, Fa Wanwan, and Fa Bojin. They are small in size and lightweight. Wanwan or Weiwei wouldn"t kill their husbands when they were present. The only person who wasn"t present was brother Bojin. I just filled up the empty s.p.a.ces and got the answer."
The two police officers came out of the house, bringing Fa Bojin with them.
The relatives who gathered outside their houses, gasped in surprise seeing him handcuffed. He had woken up. He silently glared at Xue Lin.
