The first person Ji Bai and Xu Xu met in the afternoon was Wu Xie, the second son-in-law. He was in charge of the company's catering business.

In the office decorated in an exquisitely elegant manner, Wu Xie sat opposite them with a calm expression. The thirty-seven-year-old man was fair and handsome in his early thirties.

"What can I do to help you?" he smiled lightly, polite and alienated.

Ji Bai looked at him directly: "According to the procedure, we need to understand your itinerary on the day of the incident."

Wu Xie nodded lightly.

His confession was very simple and clear: there was a dinner party that night, and he ate until after nine o'clock, and when he got home, he was less than ten o'clock. Then he slept until dawn.

As for Ye Zixi, he replied: "I'm not very familiar with it. Apart from work, there are basically no contacts."

After chatting with Wu Xie, Ji Bai and Xu Xu felt the same: he was not nervous. Although his attitude was a little cold, he answered all questions fluently without thinking, and there was no doubt on the surface.

However, considering Ye Jin's characteristics, the couple still have the possibility of conspiring to commit crimes. We need to meet everyone and make further analysis.

The second person I met was the old three Ye Qiao.

Among the children of the Ye family, she is the most outstanding. From the first day of marriage, Ye Qiao and Zhang Shiyong are the talented and beautiful women and model couples who are famous for being the best in the Ye family and even Lin City.

Ji Bai asked: "Where are you when the incident happened at 7 o'clock to 5 o'clock the next day?"

"Eat dinner with your friends until 9 o'clock and go home." Ye Qiao replied lightly, "Get up at 7 o'clock the next day to go to work."

"Did you hear anything unusual at home that night?"

"No." Ye Qiao looked at him with a polite attitude, "I don't quite understand what you mean, what will happen?"

Ji Bai smiled and changed the subject: "How is your relationship with Ye Zixi?"

Ye Qiao took out a cigarette box from the table, lit it and replied, "The relationship is average."

At this time, Xu Xu asked: "Do you know that Ye Zixi usually has conflicts with others? Does Ye Zixi have a lover?"

Ye Qiao took a sip of cigarettes and replied lightly: "I don't know if Ye Zixi has had conflicts with others. I don't know much about her private life."

The evening sun was gorgeous and warm, Ji Bai and Xu Xu stood in front of the uninhabited green belt downstairs of the building. Ji Bai lit a cigarette and asked, "Are there any doubts?"

Xu Xu: "Yes. She is more calm when answering other questions. But when we mention Ye Zixi, she will consciously answer slowly and clearly, which makes me feel that she is deliberately controlling her emotions. Maybe she has concealed something."

Ji Bai nodded: "There is another suspicious point. Look at her hands, it shouldn't be long before smoking."

Xu Xu's heart moved: Generally speaking, adults suddenly become addicted to smoking and alcohol, which is mostly necessary to relieve stress.

Ji Bai smiled: "Young, beautiful, rich, and the information shows that she is healthy. The performance of the subsidiary she manages is also excellent. What other reasons are that a woman like her suddenly becomes addicted to smoking?"

Xu Xu pondered: "Family pressure. Do you mean her husband may cheat?"

"It cannot be concluded, but it is possible."

The two of them were silent for a moment. Xu Xu looked at Ji Bai's fingers and asked casually: "What about you? Why are you smoking?"

Ji Bai's eyes also stopped on the cigarettes burning quietly between his fingers.

It was only when the criminal police team started to smoke fiercely. When they were in their early twenties, when they were in a state of corpses and were worried about the case and couldn't sleep all night, what a treasure was cigarette? Later, it became a habit. If you had something to do or not, you couldn't quit, and you didn't want to quit.

The misty thoughts flashed, Ji Bai looked up at Xu Xu, and asked without answering, "Why, don't you like me smoking?"

Xu Xu looked at him in surprise.

In her heart, Ji Bai has always been a boss, a master, a colleague, and a respected senior. But she never thought: "Ji Bai is a handsome single man who is 28 years old and is with her day and night." But even so, she still felt that Ji Bai's words were a little wrong. It was like... a man's joke about women?

A strange possibility guess flashed through his heart quickly. Xu Xu subconsciously looked at Ji Bai's eyes and observed his expression. However, Ji Bai is such a sophisticated and calm person. She has never seen through his eyes, and at this moment she only sees the openness and calmness in his eyes.

Xu Xu naturally felt relieved, obviously Ji Bai's words meant literally: whether he doesn't like his smoking behavior. So she nodded: "If you don't like it, it's better not to smoke, it's harmful to your health."

Ji Bai was about to speak, but Xu Xu's cell phone rang and it was a secretary's notice that he could go to see Zhang Shiyong.

According to the information, before Zhang Shiyong and Ye Qiao got married, they were the second son of another well-known company in the city, studying in Europe as a master's degree. Currently, he is in charge of the real estate subsidiary of the two companies, with a strong ability to expand scale. Now he is equivalent to controlling half of the Ye family.

The cool-toned office is full of toughness, heavyness and luxury. Zhang Shiyong is wearing a pure black suit and slowly turns around under the lamp, with a smile on his face: "Two police officers, I have been waiting for a long time."

Even a person like Xu Xu who doesn't easily feel male charm was slightly stunned when he saw him. Because he had an outstanding appearance and demeanor, he just stood there quietly, exuding the elegant temperament of a mature man.

"Mr. Zhang, I'm disturbing." Ji Bai smiled lightly and shook hands with Zhang Shiyong. Zhang Shiyong looked at him and smiled even deeper: "Detective Ji, I've been looking forward to it for a long time."

Xu Xu looked at Ji Bai's handsome and deep side face, which was different from Zhang Shiyong's powerful aura. Ji Bai was very calm and natural, and would not put extra pressure on others. Instead, he exuded a kind of restrained calmness.

From this point of view, Ji Bai feels right.

Regarding the itinerary that night, Zhang Shiyong was calm: "I had a meeting at the company until 8 o'clock that night, and I got home less than 9 o'clock. I really couldn't give the evidence of the absence after that."

He also answered other questions and mentioned Ye Zixi, and he only frowned slightly: "I admire her very much, it's a pity."

...

Regarding Zhang Shiyong, Ji Bai only had one comment: "No drop of water."

Xu Xu frowned: "If I were Ye Zixi, I would definitely choose Zhang Shiyong."

Ji Bai was lighting a cigarette and looked up at her, saying slowly: "The assumption doesn't work, the inference makes sense. Go back to the police station first and then summarize and discuss."

As dusk fell, Ji Bai and Xu returned to the police station first, found a small restaurant nearby, and waited for Lao Wu and Yao Meng.

Ji Bai threw the menu to Xu Xu and went to the outside room by himself. He pondered at the night for a long time, and felt that his thoughts had been cleared and his mood was slightly relaxed.

As soon as he returned to the private room, Xu Xu looked at him eagerly, waiting to summarize today's conclusion.

Ji Bai sat down: "At present, the second couple and the third couple may be the murderer. However, Ye Zixi's lover and alliance are the most likely Zhang Shiyong."

Xu Xu nodded: "No matter whether it is personality or ability, or the strength of the Ye Group, he is Ye Zixi's best choice. In addition, Ye Qiao's performance is also proof."

At this time, the waiter served cold dishes, Ji Bai took the menu and ordered a pot of tea. Xu Xu could not be as relaxed as he did, frowned: "But what we are discussing is relative possibility, and there is no evidence."

Ji Bai picked up the teacup and said in a faint tone: "There is evidence. The evidence lies with him."

Xu Xu raised his eyebrows when he heard this. After all, she had little experience, and she had no clue about the evidence Ji Bai said. But she knew that Ji Bai must be sure to say this. In addition to doubting, she also had a surprise admiration in her eyes.

The night outside the window was dark blue, and the lights inside the house were orange. Ji Bai looked at her clear black and white eyes, and there was obvious admiration. This made Ji Bai's heart sway slightly. Others said she was dull, but in fact her eyes were really "talking eyes", but... they just talked very little.

Ji Bai's smile even better at the corner of his lips, and continued to deepen her admiration: "At the latest tomorrow, the evidence will come to us. Within three days, the case should be solved. The director asked for a week to solve the case, which should not be delayed."

Xu Xu was stunned now, looking at him without blinking.

Ji Bai laughed and patted the chair beside him: "Sit here and explain it to you."

Xu Xu wanted to know the answer, but he didn't think about the inevitable connection between "sitting over" and "explaining". He got up and sat next to him, looked up at him, and waited.

Ji Bai naturally put one arm on her back, and habitually took out the lighter with one hand and lit a cigarette, took a sip, and spit out the cigarette ring. Just as he was about to make a statement, Xu Xu looked at the cigarette ring and frowned slightly: "Didn't you say you won't smoke today?"

Ji Bai looked at the little woman who was only half a foot away from his arms, and thought about it and replied slowly: "Xu Xu, only my girlfriend can control me, but my apprentice cannot."

Xu Xu turned his head when he heard this and looked at him without turning his eyes.

On the same quiet night, in this city, some people are moving around on the road to happiness. And some people are suffering every minute and every second.

In the Ye family's tall building, the third old Ye Qiao was standing in the office to ponder.

Looking down from the floor-to-ceiling window, the surface of the building was slanted like an abyss. She lit a cigarette in front of the glass, and just as she wanted to hold it in, she was snatched away by someone.

She turned her head suddenly and looked at the man who looked smiling. He was as tall and handsome as ever, with deep facial features with great masculine charm, blurred on the window, making people irresistible and terrified.

Zhang Shiyong looked at his wife's frightened but forced calm expression, smiled faintly, raised his hand and threw her cigarette into the trash can.

Ye Qiao's face changed again and again, and the end was ashamed, and two words emerged from her teeth: "Beast"
