Chapter 676: The Oath in the Snow, Act 34
When Wu He returned to his room, Mu Yan wanted to ask her what the police had said, but hesitated for a moment and then held back. Mu Yan didn't want to be suspected by the police.
Wu He also had concerns. What Xie Yunmeng said to her just now made her hesitate. Xie Yunmeng said that it was naturally a happy and excited to see Luo Yifan again, but after thinking about it, Wu He was a little worried again.
Did the detective suspect the Red-eyed Ghost and God and wanted her to confirm whether Luo Yifan said true? Wu He didn't know if he would have any irreversible consequences for Luo Yifan.
For a little girl who is obsessed with idols, everything about idols is beautiful, as if all the standards of justice are tailor-made for her idols. Although this kind of feeling is just a temporary and makes people lose their rational passion, it has to be admitted that Wu He is now very weak in judging right and wrong.
She sat back next to Mu Yan, and unconsciously overflowed from her mouth and sighed softly. The expression and movements that were different from the moment made Mu Yan immediately judge what she was worried about, which also gave the smart little girl a reason to speak.
Mu Yan asked: "Xiaohe, what's wrong? Is it the criminal policeman's words that make you worried?"
"Nothing..." Wu He said in a depressed manner.
"Oh! I was also nervous when the detective asked me questions, but as long as we tell the truth, it shouldn't matter." Mu Yan comforted.
But her comfort made Wu He look even more worried, because what Wu He is worried about is whether he should tell the truth.
So the little girl asked her companions with help, "What if we lie to the detective?"
"Hmm? Have you lied?" Mu Yan asked immediately.
Wu He's face immediately became unnatural, and she stammered: "What, how could it be! I... just said if."
"Xiaohe, don't lie. The criminal police will investigate every word we say carefully. If we find that we are lying, it is to cover up the murderer, but we have to be convicted!"
Mu Yan said the last few words very hard, Wu He's face turned pale, her hands kneading back and forth on her knees, and her eyes were also erratic.
Mu Yan was almost certain that she had already lie, so her tone became more straightforward.
"You won't really lie, are you? That's bad, I can't save you!" After saying that, he moved his body slightly like a plague god, so that he could stay away from Wu He.
Wu He said angrily: "What are you doing? I didn't lie, but I didn't lie. Don't guess randomly. I honestly answer the detective's questions."
"Then let me ask you, what did you say to Mr. Luo when I went upstairs? Did he ask you about the murder?"
"No...I didn't say anything!" Wu He immediately answered nervously.
Mu Yan's eyes became aggressive, and she asked, "You didn't tell Mr. Luo about the murder, right?"
"I didn't say it!" Wu He was almost screaming. When she found something was wrong, she quickly covered her mouth.
"I didn't say why I was so nervous. Xiaohe, I'm not hurting you, I want to help you. If you really tell me the matter, then go with me to explain to the detectives and they will consider it as appropriate."
Hearing Mu Yan's words, Wu He was silent. She did tell Luo Yifan about the murder case. However, she thought Luo Yifan was just asking casually, and she never thought it would have been intentional.
Thinking about it now, it’s hard to say all this, but why did Luo Yifan, a rich and famous person, participate in such a terrifying incident?
Wu He hesitated and asked Mu Yan: "But if Mr. Luo did nothing, he was just curious. If we asked the detective to investigate him, it might ruin his career. I think we should think about it carefully. Besides... I am not a lie, because the detective didn't ask me what Mr. Luo knew at all."
In the last sentence, Wu He said it very lightly and turned his head away.
"It seems that you really told Mr. Luo during that time." Mu Yan said: "Although it may be that he asked when he was curious, what if he had premeditated it? If you don't tell the detective, it will lead to the murder case not being solved, which will be very troublesome!"
"Impossible. Mr. Luo is so rich, how could he kill someone?" Wu He retorted.
"I didn't say he killed someone, but what if he was involved? Just like being an accomplice, sometimes people do things not necessarily for money, and there will be various reasons. If he is really innocent, the criminal police will not wrong him, let alone let this matter affect his career."
Mu Yan patiently persuaded Wu He, hoping that she could tell the criminal police that Luo Yifan asked about the murder case. In fact, it was not surprising that Wu He was simply worried about this matter, but it was not as serious as Mu Yan said. Even if Luo Yifan was not the assistant of the criminal police, the police would not do anything to him after asking casually. He just asked a few questions and investigated secretly. It was impossible for the public to know.
Wu He was shaken. She gritted her teeth and was about to tell Mu Yan about Xie Yunmeng asking her to go to Osmanthus Park together when she saw Luo Yifan again. At this time, a knock on the door sounded outside the door.
Mu Yan looked up and asked, "Who!"
"It's me, Xie Yunmeng, I remember something and ask Ms. Wu for a question."
"Okay, I'll open the door right away."
——
The door was closed tightly, and you could clearly hear the voice inside. Xie Yunmeng leaned against the door and listened alone.
He didn't miss every word Mu Yan said. Why did this little girl care so much about Wu He tell Luo Yifan about the murder case, and insist on asking Wu He to explain it to him?
Is it really for the sake of my companions? Yesterday, she should have changed shifts with Kobayashi, but she didn't. It is said that she has been sleeping in the room upstairs, but the hotel room can lead directly to the outdoors. No one knows whether she has gone out or not.
Logically speaking, Xie Yunmeng's thinking actually means that their policeman's work is not done properly, because yesterday, Kobayashi and other waiters in the hotel have been under the forensic of the criminal police. Some people have been following the window to take action, but the criminal police did not find out. This is not worth criticizing.
Now it seems that there are only two possibilities. First, the detective did ignore Mu Yan's actions. Second, the detective deliberately ignored the waiter's actions and let them expose themselves.
We don’t know which of these two points is the answer in Xie Yunmeng’s mind, so we can only continue to follow the criminal police’s thinking.
Kobayashi died at the entrance of the hotel, and someone poisoned the chains wrapped around the glass door. The hotel owner, Mu Yan, and those who were operating outside at that time were suspected. Xie Yunmeng continued to think motionlessly.
The main task here is to find out the secrets hidden behind Liu Hongyi and the two little girls. Whether they were involved in the murder case, Xie Yunmeng must find evidence.
——
When the door opened, Mu Yan felt something was wrong again. I have to say that Mu Yan's intuition was also very sharp, but she did not have enough brain to see through her intuition, so she was just confused every time.
In our past stories, there was a little girl with such a keen intuition and a mind that could see through it. Unfortunately, what happened in the past could not be repeated and could only be left in our memory.
When she returned to the room, Xie Yunmeng did not notice Mu Yan's suspicious gaze, but walked directly to Wu He. Wu He, who was sitting on the chair, seemed very nervous and stared at the detective.
Mu Yan stood at the door without moving, muttering in a low voice: "I was a suit just now, but now..."
Only she could hear this kind of muttering. Then, Mu Yan followed Xie Yunmeng and walked towards Wu He one after another.
"Police Xie, I really didn't lie." In panic, Wu He blurted out. Xie Yunmeng was stunned for a moment and asked, "I just thought of some questions and wanted to confirm with you again, are you hiding something from us?"
The word regret is really easy to appear in the little girl's dictionary. As soon as Xie Yunmeng said that, Wu He wanted to slap himself. Why did he admit his mistake before he spoke? But Mu Yan behind them looked like he was smiling.
Xie Yunmeng sat next to Wu He and asked again: "If you have any hidden things, you can tell them. It doesn't matter, it's still time."
"...I, okay, when I was at the door in the morning, I told Mr. Luo about the murder. At that time, I just thought he was very curious and did not expect it would affect the investigation. It was really not intentional."
"This kind of thing will indeed affect the investigation. Did Luo Yifan ask you on his own initiative, or did you tell him yourself?"
"We were just chatting for a few days while waiting for Xiaoyan, and I don't know why we talked about this issue. I was actually hesitant, and Mr. Luo did not ask me directly, but asked the detective what he was doing in the store." Wu He recalled.
Mu Yan immediately retorted: "When I was there, Mr. Luo asked the detective about it. Why did I continue to ask if I left him?"
Wu He was suddenly choked by her and couldn't speak. He opened his mouth and stopped for a long time before saying, "We didn't answer him at that time, and it would be nothing if he asked again!"
But Mu Yan didn't seem to want to end the topic, but said: "He should be able to see that the situation in the hotel is not right and most people will avoid it. Why should he ask repeatedly?"
In front of Xie Yunmeng, Wu He could only say that he didn't know why this was happening, but her eyes showed annoyance with Mu Yan. Such aggressive questions made people feel as if they wanted to be sure that Luo Yifan must be uneasy in kindness.
When neither of them noticed, Xie Yunmeng also frowned. He glanced at Mu Yan secretly, and then continued to say to Wu He: "It's okay, we have a witness now. Did Luo Yifan ask on purpose? You can know soon. Just tell me his original words. Think about it carefully, what did he say at that time?"
While Wu He was talking, Mu Yan had to shut up. She and Xie Yunmeng listened carefully to Wu He's answer, as if she didn't want to miss a word.
