Qiao Xu is closer to Li Yunzhou than I am. Even though I have reached this point, he still wants to persuade me.

Seeing my displeasure, Qiao Na knew what was going on, so she quickly stopped Qiao Xu.

"Brother! Stop talking!" Qiao Na still stood by my side: "No matter what the reason is, it can't change the fact that he turned his back on his word and abandoned his wife and son for a new love!"

Qiao Xu clicked his tongue, but was also blocked by Qiao Na's words, and then defended Li Yunzhou.

Qiao Na took the opportunity to say goodbye to me: "Sister Ruan Shi, my brother and I still have a lot to talk about, so we're leaving first."

I nodded and watched their brothers and sisters leave.

Back in the study, just as he calmed down, he received a call from Huang Que.

"I found a new clue!"

The tone of the oriole was a little excited.

My heart tightened, and the nerves in my brain suddenly tensed up, "What clue?"

"About Alice and Wu Meixuan's company, I found an accountant who used to work in their company. The accountant has to reconcile accounts every day, and must know what Wu Meixuan and Alice are doing!"

Huang Que analyzed it firmly, planning to start with the former accountant.

I frowned slightly, "Have you found out the accountant's whereabouts?"

"Yes." Huang Que said calmly, "I found out after several inquiries that the accountant is currently in the capital and lives in a small town in the suburbs."

Huang Que couldn't wait to ask me: "I plan to go there later, find that accountant, and collect Wu Meixuan's criminal evidence as soon as possible. Do you need me to bring that accountant back to you?"

I hesitated for a moment, thinking that once the accountant was brought back, it was inevitable that Wu Meixuan would not notice it.

"I'll go with you."

The oriole responded, saying that it would come to pick me up in a while.

While waiting for the oriole to come over, I felt that something was a little strange.

When Huang Que was in the United States before, it was very difficult to investigate Wu Meixuan's company. The employees in the company seemed to have evaporated, and their whereabouts could not be found at all.

I also sent Secretary Liu next to Li Xing to try to contact the former senior executives of Wu Meixuan's company, but there was no progress.

But now that Huang Que had just returned to China, she actually found out about the former accountant of Wu Meixuan's company.This news must have come too easily, right?

Suspicious in my heart, the oriole had already come to the door.

He urged me: "Let's go, I'm afraid that delaying it will only lead to long nights and dreams."

The oriole's concerns were also justified, and I got into the car with him and rushed to a small town in the suburbs.

On the way, I thought of the suspicion in my heart, so I asked him how he found out about this former accountant.

When this matter was brought up, the oriole complained instead.

"Don't mention it, I just heard a little bit of wind at the beginning. In order to find out the news, I deliberately dragged a lot of contacts, some of them were false, and it took a long time to determine the specific location."

In this way, the news about Huang Que is really not easy to come by. Maybe I am overthinking and being too sensitive.

Huang Que and I went all the way to a small town in the outskirts. This small town is a bit remote, but there are many houses inside, all painted in the same color due to urban construction and renovation. It is really hard to find.

Huang Que deliberately rolled down the car window, and drove forward aimlessly, while looking at the surrounding houses.

Coincidentally seeing an uncle walking along the road in front of him, Huang Que slowly drove the car over and shouted through the window: "Uncle, can I ask someone for you?"

The uncle stopped when he heard the sound, and the oriole also stopped the car.

Huang Que got out of the car and asked the uncle politely: "Uncle, do you know where Xu Jie's home is?"

"Xu Jie?" The uncle looked Huang Que up and down, his eyes full of suspicion, "Who are you? What do you want Xu Jie for?"

Huang Que reacted quickly, and immediately explained with a smile: "I am the leader of her former company, and I need to check with her about some situations."

The uncle muttered thoughtfully: "There are so many people looking for Xu Jie recently..."

The oriole and I looked at each other, feeling suspicious at the same time.

Huang Que frowned slightly, and cautiously tested the uncle: "Are many people looking for Xu Jie recently? Does the uncle know who is looking for her?"

The uncle suddenly realized that he had said something wrong, and quickly changed his words: "No. I just said it casually. No one is looking for her."

In order to hide his guilty conscience, the uncle raised his finger and pointed us in the direction, "Just turn right in the alley ahead and go to the third house."

"Okay, thank you uncle." Huang Que replied, without asking the uncle deeply.

Huang Que got into the car, restarted the car, and said in a deep voice: "It seems that someone has already gone one step ahead of us."

I didn't answer, and there was always an inexplicable uneasiness in my heart.

The car stopped in front of the door that the uncle mentioned, Huang Que looked at the sign on the pillar beside the door, compared it with the picture on the phone, and said with certainty: "That's right, it's here."

The oriole pulled off the seat belt and got out of the car, and I followed closely behind.

It's just that no matter how the oriole knocked on the door, no one answered, which made him suspicious.

"Aren't you at home? But the gate is unlocked?"

The oriole muttered, and subconsciously stretched out its hand to push the door. With this push, the door opened with a "squeak".

The oriole and I were stunned in place.

We looked at each other, and tentatively walked into the yard, only to see that the main door of the house was wide open at this time, and there should be someone at home.

The oriole walked in first, but stopped at the door of the house, which made me suspicious.

"What's the matter? Isn't anyone here?" I asked as I walked in, but when I saw the scene inside, I froze in place.

The house was in a mess, Xu Jie was curled up on the ground, his lips were black and purple, and bloody liquid was still stained around his mouth, his face was blue, and he was tightly clutching the corner of his clothes, which had been torn apart by her.

Seeing such a scene made my stomach churn.

A hand blocked my eyes, grabbed my shoulder and turned me around.

Huang Que said in a deep voice, "Don't look, I'll go over and check."

As soon as the words fell, the oriole's hand moved away from my eyes, and when I heard the rustling behind me, my heart felt like a drum beating.

Although I have seen more tragic scenes than this, I still can't face these things indifferently.

I still had a glimmer of hope, and asked the oriole: "How is it? Do you want to call an ambulance?"

"There's no point in calling an ambulance anymore."

Hearing this, I turned around abruptly, and saw the oriole was wiping her hands with a handkerchief, and said with a gloomy face, "She has already passed away. And judging from the degree of hardening of the body, she should have died not long ago."

The accountant Xu Jie we wanted to find had turned into a corpse that could no longer speak.
