When Bai Luorui arrived at Longyue Pension City, Wei Hong and Du Ruoxin were already there.

This old-age city was built a few months ago, and the interior decoration has long been completed, but because the launching ceremony has not yet been carried out, it has not yet been opened. A large area of ​​buildings seems to be a deserted city unattended.

Bai Luorui has most of the access control rights here, and she also knows the security guards who are guarding here. She made two access control cards for her companions here. Before, they imprisoned Zhang Peicai here.

Even if you shouted loudly here, no one outside would hear a single sound. This was also the first crime scene where Zhang Peicai died, but now, the bloodstains and various traces inside have been cleaned up by Du Ruoxin and her.

Bai Luorui opened a door and walked into the room. Du Ruoxin was sitting on the sofa, Wei Hong was leaning against the wall, and both of them raised their heads when they saw her walk in.

The three murderers finally gathered here, and each of them had blood on their hands, the old man's, and Zhang Peicai's.

Before Du Ruoxin could speak, Bai Luorui walked up to her and sat down with anger in her tone: "You are still as timid as you were when you were young!"

Du Ruoxin still said what she was thinking: "If there is really an email, if it is really sent out..."

Now they don't know what Zhang Pei will leave behind and how much it will involve each of them. Maybe there's enough inside to ruin them all.

"It'll be fine." Bai Luorui said, "What are you panicking about? Maybe Zhang Peicai made up the method to deceive people. Maybe he didn't find out much at all."

Du Ruoxin pursed her lips. She didn't know why Bai Luorui was so angry with her. They were grasshoppers tied to a rope, and now no one can run away. Speaking of the word "cheat", she collapsed. Du Ruoxin's tears fell from the corners of her eyes. She was still wiping it with her hands at first, but she couldn't finish it: "You are lying to me! Bai Luorui! You big liar, didn't you say you would handle it?"

Now, she regrets it very much. If she hadn't gone to Zhang Peicai, the result would have been different.

All the turning points of things happened on that day a month ago.

Du Ruoxin heard from Zhang Mingxuan before that Zhang Peicai was with a woman recently, and she became suspicious. But when she found out that the woman was Bai Luorui, she was shocked. So, that day, she came to the hotel to find Zhang Peicai.

Zhang Peicai didn't notice her abnormality at all. When he went in to take a shower, she secretly opened his computer, and there was an unfinished article titled "The Witch's Heir: Uncovering the Chaos of Elderly Care in Nancheng".

Du Ruoxin ran out of the room and drove all the way to Bai Luorui's house. It rained heavily that day, and she only walked a short distance, soaking herself. When they arrived at the door of Bai Luo Rui's villa, Du Ruoxin's hair had already turned into strands, dripping with water all over her body, and she was in an indescribable embarrassment.

Bai Luorui was startled when she saw her: "Du Ruoxin? Why are you here?"

"My husband... is the man who approached you recently. He knows what you are doing now, and what we have done in the past..." Du Ruoxin's eyes were full of fear, she sorted out her thoughts, and told Bai the truth. Luo Rui, including her relationship with Zhang Peicai, including Zhang Peicai's anonymous approach to Bai Luo Rui in order to investigate the news.

After a moment of silence, after understanding the seriousness of the whole thing, Bai Luorui said, "It's okay, it's okay, it's still too late, and the worst result has not been reached." Then she said indifferently, "I'll handle it."

She took Du Ruoxin's cold hand, "Let's deal with this together."

At that time, Ruoxin Du chose to stand on the side of her friends, as she did 18 years ago.

She never expected that Bai Luorui and Wei Hong would kidnap her husband Zhang Peicai next. They tortured him severely and tortured him in various ways, but Zhang Peicai didn't let go and didn't reveal anything.

Later, Zhang Peicai died.

When she saw his body, Du Ruoxin felt that she was finished. It was Bai Luorui who promised her that he would clean up the corpse.

That day, Wei Hong put the body in a huge black bag and drove a takeaway car. She and Bai Luorui drove far behind and came to the riverbed. She was still in charge of the lookout, and Bai Luorui and Wei Hong used a cart to discard the body. At that time, she thought optimistically that this place was so remote, even if it was discovered, it might be a long time later.

But soon, the police found her.

Du Ruoxin thinks back now, since she and Bai Luorui met 20 years ago, she seems to have fallen into hell. All she brought to her was fear and death. to deceive her and use her. If she had already stopped and stopped making dangerous attempts, wouldn't they be in such a passive situation now?

The more she cried, the sadder Du Ruoxin became. She cried and cried hysterically, for herself, for Zhang Peicai, for her childhood, for her friendship, but time could not be turned back.

Until Bai Luorui interrupted her impatiently: "Don't cry, if you cry again, no one will survive." As she spoke, she wiped Du Ruoxin's tears, "Your eyes are swollen from crying. What about the ceremony tomorrow?"

Tomorrow is the day when the Longyue Pension City project is cut and released, and Du Ruoxin is the original host. Du Ruoxin only remembered this at this time, she raised her head, with tears in her eyes: "I won't go, my heart is so messed up, there's no way I can host..."

"You have to go! I have to go too!" Bai Luorui's tone was firm, "The police have no evidence! Zhang Peicai only has some guesses, he hasn't had time to leave evidence! They told you to go today, too. In order to test you, as long as you pass this level, no one will know our secret."

Du Ruoxin was stunned, she even forgot to cry, Bai Luorui's words seemed to have a kind of magic power, which could bewitch her heart. That woman is usually easy-going, but once she decides something, she has a cold and determined temperament, as if life and death are not a big deal, this attitude will make people involuntarily believe what she says.

"Also, Brother Wei is still here, he will protect us." Bai Luorui said, her eyes turned to Wei Hong, there was water in her eyes, and Du Ruoxin had just cried.

"Stop arguing." Wei Hong, who had been standing by the side, suddenly spoke up. He lowered his eyes and looked at them, his eyes seemed to have spanned time. In front of them, it seems that they are not two mature and beautiful women, but two little girls. And it seems that they are not in the Longyue Nursing City, but the Wushan Nursing Home. He has long been used to being a brother to love them and protect them. Wei Hong made a decision: "If the police come over, you Just confess me, I do everything."

"Brother Wei..." Du Ruoxin was stunned and called to him.

Bai Luorui was silent for a moment and said, "You don't have to be like this..."

"There's nothing unnecessary, anyway, the police won't believe that a weak woman like you kidnapped and controlled Zhang Peicai, and tortured him. I was the one who finally dumped the body." Wei Hong said and flicked his clothes. "I've met them. Those police officers may have remembered my face. Remember, if you are asked, you can say that I murdered Zhang Peicai for money because of personal grudges, something like that. It's over."

At this time, in the Nancheng Bureau, Song Wen's team was busy: "Has Du Ruoxin's car been tracked?" Since Du Ruoxin left, they have placed a tracker on her car, in fact , Even without human tracking, they still have many ways to determine where Du Ruoxin is.

"I've tracked it down, their meeting point should be in Longyue Pension City." Fu Linjiang sighed as he spoke, looking at Song Wen who was beside him, "He even walked in a circle on purpose, it seems that his sense of alertness is a little high. what."

"Linjiang, continue to contact the Transportation Bureau, and prepare to investigate the medium-sized takeaway vehicles that drove from Longyue Pension City to the outside of the city that night. Just check Wei Hong's company." Song Wen simply instructed, according to their reasoning, Long Yue Yue may be the first crime scene. As long as the car that transports the corpse is found, there will be traces left on the car, which is the evidence of transporting the corpse. Then Song Wen turned to ask Zhu Xiao: "How did the Internet police prepare? already?"

Zhu Xiaodao said: "Song team can rest assured that the relevant information can be obtained, and it will never leak out."

"Okay." At this point, the main case has been reasoned out clearly, and there is only one arrest left. Song Wen instructed several subordinates, "Make all preparations."

"Yes!"

Du Ruoxin couldn't remember when she fell asleep, maybe she hadn't slept for a few hours at all. She thought that the bed under her was Zhang Peicai's bed with her, and she felt like a black hand would stretch out under the bed, trying to hug her firmly.

Before six o'clock in the morning, Du Ruoxin got up and started putting on makeup. The thick liquid foundation couldn't cover the thick dark circles under her eyes.

After a night, all Bai Luorui's previous comforts to her seemed to have expired, and she couldn't let her down at all. Du Ruoxin had a hunch that she was falling into the abyss, and...no one could hold her back.

Du Ruoxin had just applied her foundation when there was a knock on the door. Her body trembled, and she hesitated for a while before opening the door. She already knew what was waiting for her outside the door.

Sure enough, there were several policemen standing outside the door, some of whom Du Ruoxin had seen, and some who had not seen it, Song Wen stood opposite her: "Miss Du, please come to the police station with us, now we officially Arrest you on suspicion of killing your husband Zhang Peicai."

Du Ruoxin seemed to have already guessed this ending. She was calm and numb. She was escorted into the car and sat down. She prepared some words and repeated them in her heart, hoping that the police would ask something. But in the end they didn't ask anything.

Halfway through the journey, Du Ruoxin couldn't help but ask, "Have you found the email he left?"

Fu Linjiang, who was sitting next to Du Ruoxin, looked up at Song Wen, and it was not until Song Wen nodded at him that he said, "We found an email, but it wasn't published, it was reserved for you. "

Du Ruoxin hesitated for a moment, then asked again, "Then... can I see what he left for me?"

At this point, she became curious, whether there was any evidence in it to identify her, or what Zhang Peicai said. Or named Bai Luo Rui. In short... the police should have found other relevant evidence, otherwise they would not have taken her directly.

Song Wen nodded at Fu Linjiang, who took out his notebook and opened the video.

Zhang Peicai in the video, wearing a shirt he wears everyday, looks indifferent, the background of the video is the Huating Hotel where he lived, and his tone is the same as when he usually records those revealing videos: "When you see this I should be dead by the time this video is posted. I set up automatic posting of this email and sent it to my wife's mailbox. If this step is not completed, then I hope that the person who receives this information can send my The last words are shown to my wife Du Ruoxin."

Hearing this sentence, Du Ruoxin was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Zhang Peicai's last words were reserved for her.

Zhang Peicai in the picture sat up straight: "...My favorite thing in my life is secrets, that's the meaning of my life. During the years of our marriage, Ruoxin, you always complained that I didn't love you enough, that kind of feeling Maybe it's right, my love for you can't surpass my love for my work. So you are always second in my mind."

"At the same time, I can also feel that you have reservations about me. You have a secret in your heart that even my husband can't touch. So in your heart, I'm not the first. "

"Maybe this is also a kind of fairness."

"We didn't want children, we kept each other's waywardness, and we didn't fall into chai, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea. It seemed to others that we were free and rich, but we were not happy. When you and I filed for divorce, I wasn't too surprised. We have been married for so many years, we have had love, we have been happy, we have also supported and cared for each other. When the seven-year itch, we quarreled every day, and life could not continue. At that time, I was thinking, what caused our marriage This estrangement? Why is the rift between us getting bigger and bigger?"

"At this time, I had an idea, I want to explore your secrets, and use the way I am best at, into you and into your heart." Zhang Peicai in the video stared at the camera, his expression was a smile But it made Du Ruoxin shudder.

"So, I began to recall the details of each time we got along, recall what you said, eat what you like, and I went to pursue your growth experience, to find the teacher who taught you in the past, to visit and live near your house. your neighbors, and even stalk you when you're off work."

Seeing this, Du Ruoxin hugged her arms with both hands and sobbed softly. In addition to her sadness, she also had fear and coldness in her heart. They had been married for so long and used to share the same bed, but today, after seeing this video, she realized that she didn't know that person at all. Such behavior made her a little uncomfortable, even a little scared, and a little disgusting.

"...Maybe these are a bit perverted, but I've never been a moral person. What I do best is to find out things that others can't know. So I began to spend my energy to investigate my wife's secrets, for the childhood I didn't grow up in Nancheng, it feels like I have opened a very exciting book." Speaking of which, Zhang Peicai's smile gradually narrowed, "The person who asked me to find out the Wushan Nursing Home is you."

Du Ruoxin covered her mouth and shivered helplessly. It turns out that... Zhang Pei found out about Wushan Nursing Home because of her.

"I just knew at first that you lived here, and then I started to look up all kinds of information... I know that this is a place shrouded in death."

"I started to be madly fascinated by this place, this news, and at that time I had a hunch that this was the legendary story I wanted to pursue in my life, the most explosive news. As long as it was done, I would be satisfied. All my curiosity, it doesn't matter if I close the pen right away, even if I die right away."

"This is like a tempting puzzle. Facing it, I dug deeper and deeper. I flipped through the newspapers in the past, went to the abandoned ruins in person, and stepped into the unknown world of Witch Xia. Then I realized , those records are too flat, I hope to know more three-dimensional characters, more stories behind. I started to use various methods, I found relevant people there, and asked them one by one, the old man has long been Died, but there are some children of the year, grown up. Then... I got some tips and help, and I got closer and closer to the truth."

"I understand a lot of things and why you are such a woman..."

"I got close to your childhood friend, and I also found out what Bai Luo Rui was doing... but she herself is still claiming justice."

Having said this, Zhang Peicai suddenly stopped. He was silent for a few seconds before continuing. "Then... I discovered something else... It's not the Wushan Nursing Home or the Xia Weiwei that is really scary, but the devil hiding behind it."

Speaking of this, Du Ruoxin's face showed confusion, what was it, what kind of person? Will it be more scary than the witch Xia Weiwei? However, Zhang Peicai did not elaborate on this issue.

"... After I was sure that I was targeted by those people, I knew that my time was running out. I hoped that I could choose a method of execution of my own. I did not disclose what I found, but agreed. Your meeting. I watched you peek at my computer through the glass of the bathroom and ran away in a hurry. I know that your involvement may be deeper than I thought. "

Zhang Peicai's words continued: "...I won't leave any evidence against you, no matter what your past is, you were once my beloved wife, and as for Bai Luorui, I once placed it in her office. Some small equipment, if someone is lucky enough to find it, she should be able to bring her to justice."

The person in the video made the final conclusion: "So the original intention of this matter is that I want to find out the problems in our marriage, and want to get close to your secret. For your past, I regret, maybe, people You should keep the last distance with others, everyone, even ordinary people, may have secrets in their hearts that others can’t know, or are afraid of being known by others…”

Having said this, Zhang Peicai suddenly laughed: "But I don't regret what I did, even if it cost my life. Dying with a secret that others don't know is a feeling that fascinates me, I am very Happy, when I die, you are still my wife. A heartless and indifferent woman like you should be worthy of a lunatic like me. I hope that it is not you who kill me in the end."

"Finally, I love you."

When the video is over, it freezes.

The car was driving through a bumpy area and suddenly shook. Lu Siyu, who was sitting in the front row, looked back at the woman in the back seat. His eyes were indifferent and cold, without any emotion. He was speculating whether the man behind Zhang Peicai's last words, who made him hesitate to say anything, was the man behind Xia Weiwei. And what kind of connection does he have with this nursing home and with Xia Zhizhi.

Du Ruoxin was stunned for a few seconds, then buried her head and started crying. Her shoulders twitched, and she felt more sincere than the previous inquiries. She suddenly collapsed, weeping, and unwilling, not knowing whether it was for her love or her life. She realized that the secret she kept had been torn open long ago... The first person to walk in was Zhang Peicai, and there will be more people in the future.

Those who used to be scarred and painful to remember the past are no longer a secret.

Her world has collapsed.

All of a sudden, those excuses made no sense to her.

She couldn't tell how she felt about Zhang Pei, whether she loved, or hated, hated, or missed. But she suddenly realized that this man was dead.

Du Ruoxin cried for more than ten minutes, until the car stopped at the door of the city bureau, she woke up like a dream, and said tremblingly, "I will tell you everything I know."
