Chapter 87 Lemon and Onion Stew
Yu Ning slept for two days, and a lot of things happened during these two days.
First, the Mohist school.
After Mo Xiaokui woke up, she found that she had broken through from the bottleneck of the primary stage of Qi training to the intermediate stage.
This shocked the Mo family elders.
The loss of life span has been made up, and I have gained such a great benefit.
After asking carefully, I found out that Yu Ning actually gave such a precious elixir to Xiao Kui. This elixir cannot be bought even with money.
Mo Jia would like to personally thank Yu Ning for this favor.
Yu Ning guessed that they wanted to return the gift, so she declined, saying that she was temporarily out on business and would talk about it when there was a chance.
Then there is the Fifth Young Master.
He called Yu Ning once a day. Yu Ning guessed that he was having a very frustrating time on the crew and wanted to complain to her.
Complaining would definitely take a long time, so Yu Ning put him last.
Yu Ning talked to Xiao Kui while having breakfast. She thought about contacting the policeman who was looking for her after breakfast, but she ended up coming to the door on her own initiative.
It’s Xia An.
Previously, Yu Ning helped him solve a hotel murder case and also helped him identify the real murderer.
This time Xia An came to visit, under the pretext of thanking Yu Ning, but Yu Ning always felt that he seemed to have other purposes.
"Have you found out why Mr. Zhao killed someone?" Yu Ning asked.
She was actually quite curious about this case. Why did Master Zhao, who wiped out the merits of several generations of ancestors, kill someone?
"I get angry just talking about this. His family asked people everywhere to find seven or eight powerful criminal lawyers. At first, he wanted to change his confession, but when he saw that we had a complete chain of evidence, he started saying that the boy was mentally ill and had an attack when he committed the crime, so he should not bear criminal responsibility."
"Tsk tsk tsk, so shameless." Yu Ning complained. She had read Mr. Zhao's face and there was definitely nothing wrong with his mental state.
"Who says it's not true? His family is very wealthy. The case is still being investigated, but the guy has given up everything."
Zhao Tianci himself confessed that he did not know the deceased and that he killed him on impulse.
The deceased was in the flesh trade and only went to low-end entertainment venues. Logically, she would not have known someone as wealthy as Mr. Zhao.
The people in Mr. Zhao’s circle are all models, minor celebrities, and high-end escorts.
The reason why they targeted the deceased was because she posted a lot of her selfie videos on the short video platform.
Her appearance attracted the attention of Master Zhao. It was said that she looked especially like Master Zhao's biological mother, so Master Zhao wanted to kill her.
He sent a private message to the deceased, invited her to a hotel, and tortured her to death.
".Just because you look like your biological mother?" Yu Ning was incredulous.
Xia An shrugged. He also thought this reason was ridiculous.
If you work as a criminal policeman for a long time, you will find that many murders have no logic, and the reasons for killing are all kinds of strange, and sometimes they are just on a whim.
"How deep is his hatred for his mother? What did his mother do to him?" Yu Ning asked.
"They say that he is very strictly controlled. They don't allow Mr. Zhao to go out for social events, they don't allow Mr. Zhao to play online games, and they even control what clothes Mr. Zhao wears.
Mr. Zhao went abroad to study, and his mother followed him.
I have to call if I get home one minute late.
The most recent conflict was that Young Master Zhao was in a relationship, but his mother disagreed and went into the room to sit while the two of them were doing their thing."
Young Master Zhao was afraid of his mother and hated her in his heart, but he didn't dare show it on his face.
When he discovered that the deceased looked so much like his mother, he could no longer suppress the twisted hatred he felt.
When Yu Ning heard the latter part, her expression twisted. No wonder Mr. Zhao was so twisted.
When I was halfway through the work, my mother came in and sat aside to watch.
Who wouldn’t have a psychological trauma? “So, his mother doesn’t love him and that’s why she tortures him like this on purpose?” Yu Ning had never experienced true maternal love, so it was hard for her to understand this twisted emotion.
"It's not that I don't love him, but maybe my love is a bit twisted. After we caught him, his mother made the most noise. When we went to his house to investigate, his mother really taught me something new."
The ladies in the upper class were not the kind of people who would throw tantrums. They were cold and reserved. They called Xia An into the house alone and took out a box of money.
Xia An was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat. If he accepted it, he would have to spend the rest of his life in jail and would not be able to see the child grow up.
"They really used both threats and inducements. I refused to accept the money and then started to threaten me in various ways.
Fortunately, my portable recorder was on, otherwise I would have no idea what happened.
She bribed me more than once, and she even found my wife."
"It sounds suffocating."
"I said before that Mr. Zhao was a rare good boy in the upper class and never did anything out of line. Now I know that he pretended to be so good because his mother was too strict with him.
Her methods are really powerful. You will know how powerful they are once you see them. I was so obsessed with her that I even sold my house. "
"what?"
"It can't be said that it's all because of her, Mr. Zhao's mother is only partly to blame.
My wife is pregnant, so I was thinking of moving to a different school district. A friend of mine happened to recommend a house that was 30 yuan cheaper than the market price, so I bought it right away.”
Having said that, Yu Ning thought for a moment and guessed why Officer Xia came.
"Did you buy a haunted house? You think it's weird and want me to take a look?"
"You guessed it! Sister, cook some onion stew!" Xia An was a little embarrassed.
He wanted to go around a few more times, so he expressed his intention in a tactful way.
I didn't expect his sister to say it directly.
"What is stewed onion?"
"My wife often watches short videos criticizing TV dramas. I see that they are all like this in the comments. It should be used to describe people who are smart."
"It's easy for Conghui to guess. If there's nothing wrong with the house, it can't be so cheap all of a sudden. Most likely you bought a haunted house. Didn't you ask the agent to cancel the purchase?"
"I bought the house through a friend's introduction, without going through an agent. The seller disappeared after the transfer. I am so worried now."
Xia An's face was full of worry.
He and his wife both have a fixed salary and have no grey income.
The two of them worked diligently to save money for most of their lives and invested it all in the house.
This house is scary to live in now. I'd rather not live in it, but it won't be easy to sell.
"I'm a police officer. I was asked to sell the house without telling anyone the truth. I couldn't do it. I thought I'd just sell it at a lower price, but this house is so weird that it's a rip-off even if I sell it at a loss."
"Your profession has a strong yang energy, and you can calm down most haunted houses."
Soldiers and policemen, these two professions have no problem living in a haunted house, as their righteous energy can restrain evil spirits.
It’s three hundred thousand cheaper and it’s still in the same school district, so Yu Ning doesn’t think it’s a big loss.
"It's OK for me to live here, but it's not OK for my wife. She got up to go to the bathroom at night and said she saw a shadow in the bathroom mirror. I was working overtime and not at home, so she asked my mother-in-law to accompany her. My mother-in-law also had the same nightmare as her at night."
When Xia An was at home, nothing happened.
But he often has to work overtime in his job, and whenever he does, his wife will have nightmares.
The content of the dream was the same. A girl in red clothes smiled at her, but it wasn’t a funny smile, it was a hideous smile.
The most terrifying thing is that whoever lives in this house will dream about the girl in red, and his mother-in-law also dreamed of her.
This is terrible.
