Chapter 27 When Falsehood Became True

Miao Linzhi's long hair covered her face in a mess, her face was pale like a female ghost, she suddenly laughed, and stretched out her hands: "I have nothing to say, you take me away."

Su Xian knew that she was completely disheartened. He didn't comment, but extended a hand to the "poodle": "Give me the 'supernatural sensor'."

"Poodle" took out a small thing like a lighter and threw it into his hand. Su Xian took the "supernatural sensor" and approached Miao Linzhi.

Within a distance that fully fit the detection range, the tiny instrument in his hand was still lying quietly in his palm without making any noise.

"Confirm, she is not a supernatural person." After Su Xian said this, he returned the sensor to the "poodle", and he also sat down on the sofa and took a long breath: "The fifth missing person, That is, a middle school principal, whose wife claims that she once bumped into you having an affair with his husband...is it true?"

Miao Linzhi, who looked like a clay sculpture and wood carving, rolled her eyelids: "I told you, will you believe me?"

Su Xian said calmly, "Tell me first, we will make our own judgment."

Miao Linzhi played with her bright red nails, absent-mindedly: "Not long ago, I came to ask the headmaster, because Yingying was about to start school at that time, but I couldn't pay the tuition for a while, so I thought Ask him to wait a while. But I haven't slept with him."

Xiang Yu was taken aback: "But the principal's wife said..."

"That's my daughter's teacher! No matter how low I am, I will never tarnish Yingying's name!" Miao Linzhi glared at him angrily, "As for the headmaster's wife, I have never seen her before, and I don't know why she To frame me like that... Anyway, her husband and I are innocent, believe it or not!"

Su Xian pondered for a moment, then asked again: "Did the principal agree to your request?"

She nodded: "I agree."

"No way?" Xiang Yu couldn't help muttering again, "If you just ask him and he agrees, who will believe it?"

He obviously didn't believe Miao Linzhi's words, and the latter rolled his eyes: "What I'm telling is the truth, believe me, believe me, and get lost if you don't believe me!"

Xiang Yu was irritated by her tone: "What's your attitude?!"

Su Xian looked at their back and forth, and he also had his own calculations in his heart: Miao Linzhi is in a very disadvantageous situation now, since she admitted her relationship with other people, is it necessary to lie to the principal?

If what she said was true, then what the principal's wife said was false.But why did the lady tell such a lie?

For a while, he couldn't tell who was real and who was fake, so he put the question aside and continued to ask: "What about after that? Have you had any contact with the principal?"

"No more." Miao Linzhi's voice was a little dazed, "After a while, I paid for the tuition fee, and I haven't seen him since."

Xiang Yu still couldn't believe it: "You really didn't have anything to do with him... what happened to that?"

Miao Linzhi jumped into a rage: "Are you annoying? If I say no, I won't!"

"Okay, stop arguing." Su Xian rubbed his temples wearily, "Anyway, come back to the police station with us first."

The "poodle" handcuffed him and motioned for the two security officers to escort him. Although the latter was terrified, he did not dare to run away and followed orders.

Miao Lingzhi was so desperate that she didn't have the slightest intention of resisting, and obediently followed.

Before Su Xian went out, he glanced at the whole room again, and suddenly he was attracted by the potted plants placed on the window sill.

The whole plant is green and pleasing to the eye.Su Xian couldn't take his eyes off it. He hasn't seen green for a long time since the "isolated island" entered winter.

After staring intently for a few more times, he realized that there were still flower buds on the plant, and clusters of small milky white flowers hanging down were densely dotted among the branches and leaves, like a delicately cast sanctuary bell, elegant and lovely.

It turned out to be a lily of the valley.

"Do you like the flowers I sent?" Zhong Yuncong once heard No.6 deceased ask his murderer from the perspective of death.

"I remember that the flowering period of lily of the valley is from April to May." He said in a low voice, "It's freezing cold now, and your house is not a greenhouse, but it's not only lush, but it's about to bloom."

Miao Lingzhi glanced at it casually, and muttered softly, "How would I know?"

"The No. 6 deceased is a supernatural person. He can communicate with plants and even affect the growth of plants. The flowers and plants he grows are famous in the whole city." Su Xian closed his eyes, "I want to let the lily of the valley bloom in the cold winter , it's not too difficult."

Miao Lingzhi was confused and extremely impatient, and was about to blurt out "what's none of my business" when she suddenly heard someone calling "Mom".

She turned her head hastily, and her daughter Yingying was standing not far away, smiling slightly and staring at her, but her eyes were covered with frost.

Known daughter Moruomu.

At that moment, she suddenly understood something, about Fu Lan's tongue, about the endless smell of perfume, about the vibrant lily of the valley.

"Where did this pot of lily of the valley come from?" Su Xian asked aggressively, Miao Linzhi looked at her daughter and smiled: "It was given to me by someone else."

Although he had already guessed in his heart, his heart sank suddenly when he heard Miao Linzhi admit it.

Su Xian's lips moved, and he didn't know what to say for a moment. At this moment, he heard Yingying's voice, and he turned his head. The girl was staring at her mother tearfully, and his mood became more and more gloomy. Finding Zhong Yuncong, the good-for-nothing in the crowd, he gave him a hard look.

On the other hand, Zhong Yuncong spread his hands helplessly, expressing that the child was disobedient and there was nothing he could do.

Su Xian also had no time to settle accounts with him at the moment, he walked over, trying to find a reason to dismiss the little girl, although talking about humanity in their environment was a bit ridiculous, but he still didn't want her to witness his mother being taken away with his own eyes .

Never thought that Yingying would speak before him: "I know you are going to take her away, no matter whether she killed the person or not, she is a 'disordered person', this reason is enough."

Su Xian's Adam's apple rolled. He wanted to say something, but his throat was bitter, and then he heard the girl ask softly, "Before that, can I have a few words with her?"

Su Xian glanced at Miao Linzhi who bowed his head and said nothing, and nodded in agreement.

Yingying came over and took her mother's hand.

Miao Lingzhi looked up at this lovely Yuxue girl, she was born because of her, she was so young, so beautiful, so similar to her but completely different.

She found that she didn't actually know the child well.

But even so, she forced a smile and raised her hand to touch her face, trying not to let the cold handcuffs touch her skin.

"Yingying, mother..." She didn't want to cry at first, but she couldn't hide her sobs when she opened her mouth, "Mom can't take care of you anymore, you have grown up, you have to learn to take care of yourself...you have to live well .”

She stared closely at her daughter's eyes, deliberately emphasized certain words, and even subconsciously increased the strength of the hands holding her cheeks.

She wished she could listen.

The ice in Yingying's eyes had already melted into water, overflowing her eye sockets, she nodded with tears in her eyes: "I know, don't worry, I will listen to you and live a 'good' life."

Miao Lingzhi suddenly felt chills all over her body, and her hands dropped limply. Yingying stared at her worriedly, and held her hands.

She never dreamed that one day, she would strongly repel her daughter's closeness to her, and even wanted to push her away.

But she suppressed this impulse in the end, because Yingying hugged her.

The little girl leaned close to her mother's ear, opening and closing her thin lips. Seeing the sadness on her face, Su Xian stepped back a few steps, and the others followed suit consciously, providing the mother and daughter with an opportunity for their final farewell. enough space.

The whispering between the mother and daughter ended soon, and the separation followed. The atmosphere was unexpectedly calm, and the scene of hugging and crying did not appear.

Zhong Yuncong handed the tearful girl a tissue, Su Xian turned his face and glanced at him, the latter nodded knowingly: "Don't worry, she will leave it to me."

Miao Linzhi just shed tears silently, and didn't even turn her head to look at Yingying for the last time. She only begged when she stepped down the first step: "Su Xian, for the sake of my help before, I will help you in the future. Daughter, she just...please."

"Don't worry." Su Xian's voice was very low, but revealed unquestionable firmness, "Yingying is my sister, and I will take good care of her."

"Okay!" Miao Lingzhi's voice trembled, and her tears became more violent, "Remember, this is what you promised me, no matter what happens, don't forget it!"

Su Xian lowered his eyelids and looked at her. He saw too much anxiety and panic in her eyes. She was desperately waiting for his affirmative answer. Too many expectations and prayers turned into a thousand thorns. He couldn't breathe.

"Okay," he finally responded with difficulty, "as long as I can do it."

Miao Lingzhi smiled gratifiedly.

The car of the public security station was parked downstairs, where Zhang Jibai parted ways with them, and went back to his clinic by himself, and the rest got into the car one by one.

When Miao Linzhi was escorted into the car, almost all the upstairs windows were opened, and the eyes hiding behind were either gloating or having lingering fears. Miao Linzhi, who was like a wooden figure, did not respond to these peeping eyes, but Su Xian noticed it. But there was nothing he could do. He scanned around and found that the windows of Li Zhijun's house on the second floor were dark.

He was still worried about Li Zhijun's inconsistency. When the old people in the residential building were gossiping, they mentioned more than once that Li Zhijun had that kind of meaning for Miao Linzhi when he was young, but Miao Linzhi didn't like it at all. Outstanding Li Zhijun.

Su Xian is not interested in this kind of gossip, and has never verified its authenticity, but from Li Zhijun's wife Aunt Li's attitude towards Miao Linzhi, she should be somewhat credible.

So, did Li Zhijun, who had special feelings for Miao Linzhi, refuse to testify for Miao Linzhi because of his wife's pressure?

Su Xian knew that there was a problem with his thinking angle - he directly skipped the verification part, and stood in Miao Linzhi's position to try to figure out Li Zhijun's thoughts.This should not be a public official handling this case. He should remain neutral and not lean towards any side, even if it is only ideologically.

Although he couldn't confirm whether Miao Lingzhi's alibi was factual or not, his intuition and understanding of Miao Lingzhi had convinced him of her statement.

It was irrational, he understood.

But he still wanted to do this, so he asked the suspect next to him again: "Ms. Miao, I will tell you the dates of disappearance of the missing persons one by one. Please recall where you were at those times. What are you doing, and is there anyone who can prove..."

"No need." Miao Linzhi smiled sadly, "I admit that I killed these people."
