Lu Youting gently put the broken hair behind her ears and asked softly: "Sisi, what do you think? Do you have a headache?"

Jian Si couldn't figure out the situation in front of her and subconsciously frowned. As soon as she moved, a sharp pain hit her forehead.

"I, what's wrong with me?"

Luk Youting did not answer her immediately and asked, "Do you remember what happened before you fainted?"

"Huh?" Jian Si looked at him in surprise, her brain short-circuited for a moment.

Lu Youting stroked her pale face distressedly: "If you can't remember it, don't think about it now. Have a good rest and think about it again after your body recovers."

Jian Si nodded and was closing her eyes to rest when suddenly there was the sound of the door opening.

Immediately afterwards, Ji Yanbei and Ji Beiming appeared in view.

Immediately afterwards, two men in police uniforms came over.

Jian Si: "...?? What happened?"

No matter how confused she was, she knew something was wrong.

Otherwise, why would there be police?

Lu Youting comforted him softly: "It's okay, it's just a routine investigation! Tell the police everything you know, believe me, it'll be okay!"

Jian Si nodded in confusion.

The policeman brought two stools and sat beside the hospital bed, placed the transcript on the counter, and began to ask about Jian Si's situation.

"Miss Jian, why did you appear in Ji Hong's study during the birthday party?"

"Why did you appear in Grandpa Ji's study?" Jian Si looked solemn. He worked hard at the meeting, but couldn't remember anything and his mind went blank.

"I, I don't remember...what happened? Why are you asking me these?"

The policeman kept a straight face and asked seriously: "You'd better think about it carefully! Mr. Ji Hong was deliberately murdered and is still in the intensive care unit and is not out of danger. At that time, someone witnessed the whole process of your murder, and there was only one thing on the fruit knife. A person's fingerprints. If you don't cooperate, we will charge you with premeditated murder."

After hearing what he said, Jian Si sat up from the hospital bed: "What? Something happened to grandpa!"

The policeman nodded: "Yes! Something happened to Mr. Ji Hong. The fruit knife was aimed at his heart and stabbed deeply!"

Jian Si's already pale face became even more ugly.

With trembling hands, she lifted the quilt covering her body and groped to get out of bed.

"No, I have to go see grandpa."

Grandpa was so kind to her.

Something happened now and she had to go and see.

As a result, as soon as he stood up, he was pushed back by Lu Youting.

"You are also injured. Let's recover from the injury first! Besides, Grandpa Ji is in the intensive care unit. You won't be able to see him even if you go."

Lu Youting put his hand on Jian Si's shoulder secretly and exerted force.

Feeling his toughness, Jian Si swallowed back the words that came to her lips, sat back on the bed obediently, and leaned her back against the head of the bed.

Ji Yanbei spoke at this time: "Jian Si, think about it again, why did you go to grandpa's study? Why did you get injured and fainted on the ground? Luoyun said that she witnessed you killing grandpa with her own eyes, and you wanted to kill her to silence her. , and ended up hitting the corner of the table."

Subconsciously, he didn't want Jian Si to be the murderer.

However, he didn't want Luoyun to lie either.

If Luoyun really lied, then the reason——

Just thinking about it makes my hair stand on end and I have goosebumps all over my body.

Jian Si bent her legs, buried her face between her knees, held her head in her hands, and tried to remember.

Suddenly, countless clips flashed through the back of my mind like a movie.

She saw herself stabbing her grandfather in the heart with a knife.

She saw Ji Luoyun standing at the door and witnessed everything.

She saw herself holding a knife to kill Ji Luoyun and silence him.

Although those fragments are scattered and blurry, but...but they are so real, as if they really happened.

Could it be that she really killed grandpa?

Thinking of this possibility, she suddenly shuddered violently.

But why? Why did she kill grandpa?

She couldn't remember why she went to the study on the second floor.

She even couldn't remember what happened with her grandfather, and where she got the fruit knife.

The more I thought about it, the more desperate I became.

She slowly raised her head and saw Lu Youting's concerned eyes. She couldn't bear it any longer. She rushed over and hugged him tightly, and said, "Lu Youting, I, I really can't remember! My head hurts so much. I don’t remember anything.”

Ji Yanbei and Ji Beiming looked at each other.

Both of them looked ugly.

Especially Ji Beiming.

Having been a lawyer for so long, he has seen countless prisoners.

After committing a crime, all prisoners will use the words "don't remember" to evade legal punishment.

Ji Luoyun's testimony coupled with Jian Si's reaction will most likely convict Jian Si of intentional homicide and he will definitely be sentenced.

The police had the same idea as him.

They have seen countless prisoners, and Jian Si's reaction at this moment is a proper murderer's reaction.

"Miss Jian, this matter is of great importance, you..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted sharply by Lu Youting.

"She has a head injury. You can wait until she has a night's rest and is in a better mental state before asking again! Forcibly asking now is just a waste of everyone's time and will make her condition worse."

The policeman frowned tightly and looked a little ugly.

Ji Yanbei spoke at the right time: "I think Mr. Lu is right! Let's stop asking here for today! We will contact you when her condition gets better."

One of the policemen looked troubled: "But according to the rules, since she wakes up, she must go back to the guard with us first."

Ji Yanbei knew what they were afraid of and vowed: "I promise, she won't escape!"

With the client's family members vouching for their support, the police said nothing and turned around and left.

After the police left, Ji Yanbei patted Jian Si's shoulder gently: "Jian Si, you don't have to worry. You hurt your head now and may lose your memory temporarily. Take a good rest and wait until the situation gets better."

After finishing speaking, he winked at Ji Beiming.

Ji Beiming nodded and they left the ward together.

On the way back to the intensive care unit, Ji Yanbei asked Ji Beiming: "Do you think Jian Si is the murderer?"

Ji Beiming curled his lips and said with a smile: "Based on my many years of experience, her reaction makes me feel very suspicious."

Ji Yanbei stopped talking.

The ward fell silent.

Only Jian Si and Lu Youting were left.

After making sure that everyone was gone, Jian Si let go of Lu Youting, grabbed his arms tightly, her eyes flashed, and she said with horror and fear: "I really killed Grandpa Ji, what should I do? What should I do?"

Lu Youting frowned slightly: "Why did you want to kill him?"

Jian Si shook his head desperately, refusing to accept that he almost killed Grandpa Ji.

"I, I don't remember! I, I seem to have forgotten something very important! But there are some fragments in my mind. I remember that I stabbed the fruit knife into my grandfather's heart. I remember that I wanted to chase him. Ji Luoyun——"
