Chapter 751: Uncle Will Tell You a Story
“We checked the surveillance cameras and finally found that the girl had completely lost track of her whereabouts after entering the boy’s apartment building. We initially suspected that the girl might be in this apartment building. Perhaps she was hidden or perhaps she had an accident. However, we all believed that the possibility of her being killed or placed under house arrest was higher.”
“Usually, in this case, the man who called the police will be the first suspect. After all, no one can guarantee that he has no intention of killing his girlfriend.”
“After a long period of observation, we realized that the person who reported the case did not seem to be a suspect. We searched that building for a long time, but we could not find the whereabouts of his girlfriend. Later, about a month later, we unintentionally discovered that the man actually had a new lover.”
Zhuang Long, who had originally planned to be a quiet listener, could not help but say, “Now that his old love is gone, it’s normal to find a new lover, right?”
“That’s true, but that new lover was the old lover’s best friend.”
“Huh?” Zhuang Long opened his eyes, stretched out an arm, and drew it in the water. He said, “So you started an investigation on this best friend’s new lover?”
“That’s right.”
“We followed her for a while and realized that she was especially paranoid and was always easily frightened. Besides, every time she slept with the person who reported the case, she would not go to the person’s house. Most of the time, they were at the woman’s house or hotel.”
“What does that mean?”
“Isn’t that strange?” Jimmy said. “If you have someone you love, would you like to go to her house to make out or get a room at a hotel?”
/
“Home of course…” Zhuang Long suddenly shut his mouth. He narrowed his eyes and said with certainty,” She’s afraid! There must be something in a man’s apartment that makes his new lover afraid! ”
“Ha…” Jimmy smiled mysteriously. He said,” Then you might as well guess what made the new lover afraid. ”
Zhuang Long said, “Missing girlfriend?” After a pause, Zhuang Long changed his words. “The corpse of the missing girlfriend?”
Jimmy’s smile deepened.
He suddenly praised Zhuang Long. “Ah Long, you’re really smart. Back then, when I first officially handled a case, I didn’t expect that thing to be a corpse.”
Zhuang Long did not hear the deeper meaning in Jimmy’s words. He said, “I have no choice. Who asked me to be smart?”
“Hehe…”
Seeing that Jimmy did not speak for a long time, Zhuang Long urged him to tell the story quickly.
“Quickly tell me the rest. You haven’t said where the man hid the corpse of his ex-girlfriend. You guys suspected the person who reported the case before, so you must have searched his house.” They didn’t find the corpse, which meant that the criminal was quite smart to hide the corpse in an unexpected place.
“The murderer was not the person who reported it.”
“Huh?” Zhuang Long was a little surprised. His gaze s.h.i.+fted and he said, “The new lover?”
“Yes.”
Seeing that Zhuang Long was about to get impatient again, Jimmy slowly said, “The person who reported the case rented the house. This house is under the name of the best friend’s new lover. This house is the burial place for the old love. The new lover also fell in love with the man, but the man and the old love were very close. The new lover could not interfere, so he could only kill the old love.”
“Before marriage, women will always doubt their future. They will always worry that their husbands will not love them after marriage, will cheat on them, and will abandon them. In order to test a man’s loyalty, their new lover came up with a plan for his old love.”
“What?” Zhuang Long asked.
Jimmy said, “The new love told the old love that the mirror in the toilet of the man’s apartment is actually a one-way mirror but behind the mirror was a small cubicle. The small cubicle could accommodate a person. When they enter, they can observe the movements of the people outside. The new love tells the old love that she can hide inside and look at the man while she tried to seduce the man in the toilet.”
“If the man takes the bait, then this man is not worth marrying. If he doesn’t take the bait, then he’s a man worth entrusting her life to.”
“Before entering the cubicle, the new lover gave the old lover a cup of drugged water. Just like that, the old lover who had drunk the drugged water foolishly entered the small cubicle. The moment she entered, the new lover locked it using a secret lock. Then, she came to the door to seduce the man. The man did not resist her temptation and slept with her in the toilet.”
“Her old love was watching from inside. She punched the gla.s.s wall angrily, but the soundproofing of that wall was especially good. The man who was having a good time with her did not hear her. Later on, the drug took effect and the old love fainted.”
“After indulging himself, the man told his best friend’s new lover that he was obsessed for a moment and did not love her. He hoped that his new lover would treat today’s matter as an accident. His new lover acted very considerate and knew that he felt guilty towards his old love. She even suggested that he go on a trip to relax. When he calmed down, he could think about this matter carefully again.”
“The man immediately listened to his new lover’s suggestion and sent a message to his old lover, explaining that he was going on a trip. Then, he left. After he left, the woman woke up. She stood behind the mirror and waited for a day, two days, and until she died of dehydration and hunger, but the man did not come back.”
“More than half a month later, the man calmed down and realized that he still wanted to spend the rest of his life with his old love, so he came back. When he realized his mistake and came back to take the initiative to shoulder the mistake with the woman, he realized that the woman was missing…”
Jimmy finished the story and fell silent.
Zhuang Long’s mouth fell open in disbelief.
He sighed. “Women!”
Jimmy did not comment. He waited for Zhuang Long to finish sighing before saying, “Actually, as a police officer, I’ve really seen too many troubling things. I’ll never forget the sad and painful feeling when we opened the lock and saw the victim who was long dead and whose corpse had rotted to the point that only bones were left.”
Zhuang Long’s heart turned cold.
People were really crazy for love.
Jimmy did not know what Zhuang Long was thinking. He stared at Zhuang Long for a long time before saying, “No matter when, people can’t harm others for their own selfish desires. It’s like suffering a setback in a relations.h.i.+p and meeting a love rival. If you’re really unwilling to lose, you can fight face to face. Don’t break the law.”
Jimmy seemed to be referring to something, but also seemed to be saying it casually.
Zhuang Long snorted.
He thought of how he had felt a few days ago when he thought of Bruce and how he wished he could kill him. He immediately felt relieved. He smiled at Jimmy and said, “Uncle Jimmy, you told this story very well today. It benefited me greatly. When you’re free in the future, tell me some more stories.”
