Chapter 167 The Perfect Victim (Thirty-two)

Sea of flowers, a sea of bright red flowers, in which thick petals are churning like blood.

And...the pair of eyes that kept staring at him.

He said he has been...

Are those eyes looking at him now?With that empty, cold stare?

"Senior You! Senior You!"

You Zui shivered, and was woken up from that dazed state, and there was still some unconscious drowsiness in his mind.

The head ached slightly.

"Huh? What?"

The intern looked worriedly at the pale and haggard beauty in front of him.

"Senior, are you okay, why do you always seem to be in a bad mood recently..."

His colleagues in the company did not know about the things that happened to You Zui recently, and the Prosecutor's Office did not disclose his identity at present in order to protect privacy.

Of course, regarding the fact that they finally captured the serial murderer "Ghoul", they still made a lot of publicity on the star network and TV programs. After all, such a cancer that seriously endangered the safety of citizens was finally eradicated by them.What a delightful thing.

Of course, all Haspenham people should know about this kind of thing, and spread it out, so that those who have something against Haspenham all day long, such as "sin city", "dead bodies everywhere", "be wary of everyone you meet when you go out, because every ten HaspenhamThere will be a murderer among them.” Foreigners who have such a bad impression take a look, and their prosecutor’s office is not as incompetent as those people imagined.

So much so that during this time, every time You Zui turned on the projector, he could see the scene of Bai Yu speaking in the trial court, watching him look at the audience for the last time.

That look entangled his heart like a poisonous snake, constantly reminding him of the scene at that time.

And what Bai Yu said at that time...

He said Ling Yue's death had nothing to do with him.

"Senior! Senior!"

Without knowing it, he fell into the memories again, You Zui clenched his palms tightly, his nails lightly dug into the flesh, letting the pain wake him up.

"Thank you, I'm fine...for worrying you."

He looked at the intern, and a smile appeared on his lips.But he didn't know that his fragile appearance, which pretended to be innocent, could actually arouse people's pity...and the desire to control.

Want to hold him in the palm of your hand, kiss away the tears from his eyes, want to bite his earlobe, make him bleed, and make him cry harder.

The girl on the opposite side stared at his face, and was stunned for two seconds. The surprise in her eyes couldn't be stopped. She blushed suddenly because of his smile, and said in a hurry, that's all right, then turned and walked awayup.

You Zui was stunned again, when the phone rang suddenly.

It was Ling Yi who sent him a WeChat message.

"Ling Yi: Are you okay?"

Only then did he vaguely remember that he hadn't communicated with this private detective for a long time. Ling Yi was introduced to him by Bai Yu back then, and he was very moved by this matter...

But looking back on it now, just feel mocked...

What kind of mood did that man have at the beginning, so that he could do such a thing in such a high-sounding manner?Perhaps at that time, Ling Yue had already been imprisoned by him.

Maybe he has never really seen the other party clearly, and those gentle and elegant appearances shown by the other party are just what he wants to see for himself.

You Zui doesn't know what kind of person the real Bai Yu is.

He never mentioned his family, his parents, if he had any siblings...never even took him to meet his friends.

He's like a perfect, emotionless puppet lover.

The phone beeped again, interrupting You Zui's trance again.

"Ling Yi: Sorry to hear such news, Mr. You."

"Ling Yi: My entrustment has not been completed. This is my negligence. I will return the previous entrustment money to your account."

"You Zui: No need... This is the reward you deserve."

Holding the phone, he felt that the wound he thought he had healed was torn open again, and the dull pain spread to his chest again, making every breath he took felt like he was being tortured.

"You Zui: It's my fault. I shouldn't have entrusted you with such a thing. I'm sorry for breaking your 100% success rate..."

"You Zui: It's my fault. I'm really sorry. I'll pay the final payment of the entrusted gold that I agreed on. I'm sorry Mr. Ling."

"Ling Yi: You don't need to apologize for this kind of thing, are you really okay?"

You Zui's fingertips twitched like a spasm, almost unable to hold the phone.

He bit his lip and responded almost immediately, his fingers twitching rapidly.

"You Zui: I'm fine."

"You Zui: I'm fine."

"Ling Yi: Let's meet, after you get off work tonight."

You Zui sank into the soft cushion, and there seemed to be some kind of orange-flavored incense in the room, with some fresh and sweet fragrance, which made people's nerves relax unconsciously.

Ling Yi sat opposite You Zui, the metal mask on his face covered his expression, making him look calm and rational at all times, and no matter what happened outside, he couldn't affect him in the slightest.

You Zui touched his face, guessing that he must look terrible now, he was a little envious of the mask on Ling Yi's face, if he could wear the mask, wouldn't others not be able to see his sadness?

Putting a glass of milk in front of You Zui, Ling Yi quietly watched him with golden eyes.

Even though he has met Ling Yi many times, You Zui still loses his mind because of his eyes that seem to be able to dissect everything.

You Zui cleared his throat, wanting to say something.

But Ling Yi made a stop gesture and rubbed his head across the table.

His hands were strong, and You Zui didn't react for a moment, and was almost pressed against the table by him, his hair was messed up, and he looked at him pitifully with his foggy fox eyes.

"Why?"

The corner of Ling Yi's lips seemed to rise for a moment, but it disappeared soon after.

You Zui almost suspected that he was wrong.

"Do you feel better?"

Only then did You Zui suddenly realize, and he smoothed his hair somewhat awkwardly.

"Much better...thank you."

"This case is not that simple."

But Ling Yi quickly changed the subject. He put a thick document on the table and looked at You Zui.

"Although Bai Yu voluntarily pleaded guilty in court, he never admitted that he was the perpetrator of Ling Yue's murder."

"And after my investigation, apart from the skeleton excavated from the garden and the fingerprints on it, there is no other evidence to prove that Bai Yu is the murderer of Ling Yue."

You Zui's body trembled.

"You mean that what he said in court at the end may be true?"

The dazzling colors in those golden eyes shattered, and the voice was low.

"Yes, I now suspect that Bai Yu may not be a 'ghoul'."

You Zui spent the whole night thinking about what Ling Yi told him.

He closed his eyes, those bright red flowers went away, and a pale white ghost-like figure appeared in front of his eyes.

The silver-haired young man stood among the flowers and gently plucked off a lily.

"I did not do that."

Bai Yu said softly, it was the same as what he said in court.

"Do you believe what they say?"

You Zui knew that the other party's words were directed at him.

Although they were separated by a lot of seats and heads, the other party's eyes never moved away from him.

He doesn't care what other people think of him, he just wants someone to believe him.

"The body of Ling Yue buried in the garden has nothing to do with me."

The phone lights up again.

"Ling Yi: I will continue to investigate this matter. This is my case, and I will be responsible to the end."

"Ling Yi: Take care of yourself."

You Zui couldn't sleep, he opened his eyes, looking at those people in the dark, those souls, those who died, or those who were waiting to die...

They didn't leave, they surrounded him and whispered to him.

A sleepless night.

On the second day, You Zui's complexion was even worse, he looked like a vampire who hadn't sucked blood for many years.

"You can ask for leave today."

Yin Qi looked at his face and frowned.

"Like this, I'm afraid I can go directly to the hospital without going to work."

"No need, I have to go to work. Today, I still have... I still have work that I can't shirk..."

You Zui forced himself to drink the milk on the table, but there seemed to be too much sugar in it, and he felt a sweet smell retching from his throat...

He covered his mouth with his hand and went to the bathroom to spit it out.

Washing his hands vigorously, he looked at the person in the mirror, his jet-black hair was messily stuck to his forehead, water stains slid down from the side of his face, and the bloodshot cracks in his eyes spread little by little,The blue under the eyes can hardly be concealed.

Why, how did it become such a bad look...

Is the person in the mirror really yourself?I seem to be ugly, how could this be...

No, it can't be like this, if A Yue sees it, she won't like herself.

Just wash it off, just wash it off.

He rubbed his hands vigorously, splashed cold water on his face, and rubbed his eyes, as if this would clean the blue color there.

Wet water flowed down his neck, and the cold water almost wetted the fabric of his upper body, and his skin was frozen into a faint crimson in the cold winter air.

He's like a poor stray cat that's wet and shivering.

"enough."

Yin Qi walked in, grabbed his hand that was still pouring water on his body, and pressed him against the mirror with his backhand.

"What do you want to make yourself look like to be satisfied?

"If you go on like this, you can skip the step of going to the hospital and go directly to the crematorium to report, and burn to ashes together to accompany your A Yue."

You Zui looked at him sideways with the most foggy eyes, but he didn't seem to recognize his face.He smiled, with a hint of watery tenderness in his expression.

"OK."

The messy black hair of the two people inside and outside the mirror was tangled together, he smiled sadly and weirdly, his pale lips pressed against the beauty in the mirror, and kissed lightly.

He is as beautiful as a water ghost.

The beauty that made people desire to destroy took root and sprouted on his body like a seed, and finally grew into a towering tree that destroyed his life.

"I originally reserved a place for myself by A Yue's side. When I die, I can go to accompany A Yue..."

"I can... go with him..."

Yin Qi frowned and looked at him, and took a big towel to dry the water stains on his body, You Zui let him wipe it off, but there was that drunk and trance smile on his face.

"look up."

The hair dryer was turned on, Yin Qi had a cold face, and inserted his fingers into his hair to dry his wet hair. The warm wind blew across his skin, giving people a false feeling of warmth.

The soft black hair passed through the fingertips, You Zui hugged Yin Qi's shoulder obediently, put his chin on one shoulder, and the cat rubbed it lightly.

"A Yue."

He shouted softly, as if he was afraid of waking up from a dream, his slender eyelashes fluttered, and a tear dripped from the end of his soft red eyes.

"I miss you so much."
