impossible.

Lu Man turned over and was about to get out of bed, tearing the infusion tube into a mess.

"What are you going to do!" Lu Chengzhong hugged her, "Where are you going with such a serious injury! Xiao Nian passed away, and your aunt and uncle are gone, so don't worry us anymore okay!"

Hearing her mother's cry, Lu Man gradually calmed down. Lu Chengzhong let her go and saw her eyes were straight.

Bai Wen came over and pulled her back, and gently pressed her back to the hospital bed.

"Who is it?" Lu Man was stunned for a long time, and finally said, "Who set the fire, did the murderer catch it?"

Such a big and urgent fire has too many traces of man-made.

"The police are still investigating..." Lu Chengzhong was talking when someone knocked on the door and came in.Lu Man looked up, and a group of people took out their IDs, saying they were the police.

"Miss Lu, please assist in the investigation."

As the first person to arrive at the scene, Lu Man was questioned continuously by the police.

Lu Chengzhong was very upset that the police were relentless when his daughter was still in the hospital, but Lu Man was very cooperative and told the police everything she knew.

In the end, the police ruled out her as a suspect.

Afterwards, Lu Man fell seriously ill and almost died. When she was rescued and woke up in the hospital, she heard that You Jia's case had become an unsolved case. The victim's body had been cremated, and the funeral was over two weeks ago.

Both Lu Chengzhong and Bai Wen thought that their daughter would be angry again, and they were ready to comfort her, but Lu Man just gave a faint "um" and stopped talking.

She was silent for half a month.

Seeing her daughter getting depressed day by day, Bai Wen was very worried.She had observed Lu Man secretly, and saw that she was always holding her mobile phone, not knowing what she was looking at.

She has never deleted the messages You Xinian sent her, and the photos are also overwhelming the memory.

Lu Man flipped through messages and photos, without eating or sleeping, and lost a lot of weight.

Jiang Zhengqing came to see her and brought a bunch of fruits and gifts, but Lu Man didn't even blink.

Jiang Zhengqing cried as soon as she got out of the ward. She hated You Xinnian and why she died so cruelly. Her death took away all of Lu Man's happiness, took away her entire soul, and left her body alone.

"Come back, can't I never rob you again?" Jiang Zhengqing said to the sky, "Aren't you always good? Aren't you omnipotent? You won everything about me, that's all." Dead? How could you just die like this?"

Jiang Zhengqing squatted outside the hospital, weeping uncontrollably.

Bai Wen knew that Lu Man could not accept You Xinnian's death, and she never even mentioned going to the cemetery to pay homage.Bai Wen understands that the more this kind of thing is held in her heart, the more it will become an inextricable knot. Only by facing it can she really get through this disaster.

She wrote down the address of You Xinnian's cemetery on a piece of paper, and handed it to Lu Man: "Go and see her, she's right there."

Lu Man glanced at the paper on the bedside, and finally said, "She's not there."

Bai Wen was surprised: "She's not there? Then where is she?"

Lu Man pointed to her heart and said, "She's always been here."

Lu Man is the only daughter of the Lu family and the eldest child of the younger generation.Since she was sensible, all the elders told her to be brave and strong, to give way to and protect her younger siblings.She was given high expectations, and she did.

She has always been strong, no matter what kind of difficulties she can overcome, it is absolutely no problem to ask her to come out at the most critical time.

She is a heart-saving pill for the elders and a sea god needle for the peers.In the eyes of others, there is nothing she can't solve, and this time is the same.

Time is indeed the most miraculous magic, and all wounds that cannot be healed can be healed by it.

Lu Man gradually began to return to life. Just after a familiar night of insomnia, she actually appeared in the gym the next morning, which surprised Lu Chengzhong.

Lu Man has not exercised for nearly half a year, and his body has been weak since the serious illness. He was sweating profusely after only running two kilometers.

"Don't worry, you have been ill for so long, you need to recover slowly." Lu Chengzhong warned her from the side.

Lu Man let out a "hmm", turned down the speed, jogged for a lap, and then started to speed up again.

Lu Chengzhong didn't say anything anymore, she knew that Lu Man knew it well.

Lu Man began to exercise more, eat reasonably, and returned to work in the hotel.

Gradually, she began to smile again, and it seemed that her life was returning to the right track step by step, but she knew that the track of her life had been overturned, and she would spend the rest of her life chasing after the murderer.

Even if Youjia would give up, even if the police would give up, even if the whole world gave up, she would not give up, and she could not give up.

The pain of watching a loved one die was irreparable, but there was one more thing she could do to make it up.

She must find out the murderer of the Youjia tragedy and bring him to justice to comfort the souls of Xiaonian's family.

She didn't tell her parents that she was continuing to investigate the case, she didn't mention it to anyone.Lu Man understood that the murderer must be very familiar with Youjia in order to set fire to Youjia.Locked doors and locked doors and windows are unusual.Lu Man knew many habits of Youjia, because the security system of Grand Hyatt Regency was perfect, and the weather in early summer was sultry, so according to Youjia's habit, he liked to keep the doors and windows open.Even if you want to close it, the servant Wu Xiuying closes it before going to bed.At that time, Wu Xiuying hadn't returned home, and the doors and windows were all closed. It was clearly planned by the murderer to make it difficult for people inside to get out, and it was even harder for people outside to get in.

So who is it that closes the doors and windows?

There is an idea lingering in Lu Man's mind. From a rational point of view, this is the most likely result, but from an objective emotional point of view it is completely unreasonable.

In any case, the murderer must be a very familiar person, possibly any close relative or friend around him.So she investigates secretly, and can't startle the snake.

In the process of investigating the case, it was natural to find out that Liu Ke bribed Jiang Qin to frame You Xinnian. This incident had already happened a few months ago, and it had already happened when Lu Man was sick and hospitalized.

Lu Man invited Liu Ke out, and before they could speak, Lu Man slapped Liu Ke.

"You...what are you doing!" Liu Ke dared to get angry but didn't dare to fight back.

Lu Man pointed at her: "This slap is considered cheap for you. If you dare to slander her again in the future, I will cut off your tongue."

Liu Ke pretended to be stupid: "Crazy! I don't even know what you're talking about!"

Lu Man grabbed her by the collar, and Liu Ke wanted to struggle, but suddenly found that there seemed to be a gun hidden in Lu Man's waist—Liu Ke was frightened, and was instantly stunned, not daring to move.

"Are you the murderer?" Lu Man asked.

Liu Ke was scared out of his wits: "Oh, sister Lu Man! You can't talk nonsense about this! Do you think I might kill someone like this!"

"I didn't see you cowardly when Jiang Qin's house was set on fire."

When this matter was mentioned, Liu Ke lost his mind: "Sister, sister...don't be like this, you have something to say. I really don't know..."

Lu Man directly put a gun on Liu Ke's forehead, and Liu Ke screamed in fright: "It's really not me! It's really not me! Even if you kill me, I can't become a murderer. You still have to pay for it!" My life! It's not worth it, sister Lu Man!"

Lu Man put down the gun, and Liu Ke fell down like batter, and hurriedly supported the car beside him.

I saved my life from Lu Man, Liu can settle for this matter, but who knows that Lu Man will not let her live at all, and will come to her every three to five months, every time he is yin and yang, and always treats her as a murderer The murderer who died You Xinian had something to say in his words, trying to get something out of her mouth in a different way.If it weren't for Liu Ke's big heart, she would have been annoyed to death by her long ago.But Lu Man really couldn't be offended, so Liu Ke had no choice but to endure it.

Lu Man has been chasing You Jia's case. After the police tried their best to search for clues but still could not solve the case, Lu Man's investigation also seemed to fall into the ocean.

She could pretend to retrieve the ring that was thrown into the sea because she had prepared an identical one.But investigating the case is not a trick, it is real and cruel.

The truth is in the sea, but you will never find it.

Time flies, the sun rises in the east and sets in the west, day by day, year by year, although Lu Man never really gave up on the pursuit, but reason presented the reality in front of her—the murderer might really be impossible to catch.

This is the reality that Lu Man least wants to admit, just like You Xinnian's death, thinking about it is like being in a nightmare.

She never mentioned You Xinnian's death, nor did she go to her graveyard. Gradually, some rumors were like ghosts in the dark, breeding from nowhere, with no source and no evidence.It comes from the fantasies in some people's minds, from the harshness of some people regardless of the facts, using the most bitter language to make up a plot that they are most willing to believe, and gradually spread in the dark...

Why hasn't the real culprit been found in the Youjia tragedy?How could there be so much trouble and so many police forces not finding the murderer?

Isn't Youjia very powerful?How could the murderer escape?

It is said that Lu Man was at the scene on the night of the murder, and someone saw her covered in blood.

Covered in blood?Is she the murderer?No wonder the police couldn't catch the prisoner. The prisoner is really not easy.

Hey, have you heard who the murderer is?

On the surface, they are affectionate and loving, but behind their backs, they may be arguing upside down, and this will kill the whole family.I think these affections are all for showing off to others, just to save face.

Lu Man is the murderer?Really?It doesn't look like it.

If the murderer can see it, why do we need the police?

These words were circulated in various versions, and even reached the ears of Lu Man himself.The moment Jiang Zhengqing heard these broken words, he started to fight with someone, completely forgetting that he had been brought up with a good education, and the two of them pulled each other's hair and rolled together, like shrews in a vegetable market.

Lu Man separated them, and Jiang Zhengqing trembled with anger, pointing at the other party and shouting: "You speak every word as if you saw it with your own eyes, did you see it! Do you know what happened that day!"

The other party ran away quickly, but Jiang Zhengqing wanted to catch up, but was held back by Lu Man.

"Why didn't you explain!" Jiang Zhengqing asked Lu Man angrily.

"Why explain?" Lu Man asked back.

"why not?!"

"Because it doesn't matter."

Lu Man's mind was not on these things, she just wanted to find out the murderer.Little tricks like gossip and gossip are not worth mentioning to her now.

The more you can't find the murderer, the more you can't let go of your suspicions.

Lu Man suspected many people, Liu Ke, Chen Shu, Wu Xiuying... But these people were quickly filtered out, and the two remaining people she least wanted to doubt were the most suspicious - You Renxue and You Randong.

Lu Man had a chat with Wu Xiuying before she left City G, and asked her to repeat what happened that night in detail.Wu Xiuying is getting old, and her memory is not good, so she speaks intermittently.Lu Man took notes with a voice recorder and got a few useful clues.

The strange tranquilizing wine that night, and Wu Xiuying was called to buy medicine at night for no reason.

Why does Anshen wine contain anise?Wu Xiuying said that she definitely did not enlarge the fennel, in fact, she couldn't remember what the fennel looked like at all.She has already made a recipe for the soothing wine every night, just take it out and soak it in the wine.The only thing added to the wine that night was the cistanche brought by You Renxue.

Afterwards, Bai Xi's phone calls were also a little weird.It was a long time ago that Bai Xi had a headache. Lu Man heard from her mother that she even gave Bai Xi some medicine. After taking that batch of medicine, Bai Xi hadn't mentioned the headache for more than two years.Although it is not impossible for the old disease to recur, the timing of relapse is too sensitive.Wu Xiuying just received a call, judged from the phone number that it was Bai Xi, and went out.It was on fire when she came back.This looked like a trap carefully set up by someone to transfer Wu Xiuying away.

But it doesn't make sense, the murderer killed three people in a row and set fire to the corpses, burning more than half of the whole house.Why did the extremely brutal murderer take Wu Xiuying away?Wouldn't it be more convenient to burn with her?If Wu Xiuying hadn't come back in time, the door couldn't be opened, and You Renxue would have died inside.

Closed doors and windows, a sudden fire, the only survivor...

Lu Man gradually had an answer in his heart, an answer that he couldn't say for the time being.She had a hunch that this direction was correct, but it made sense logically, but couldn't be explained rationally.No matter which of You Renxue and You Randong is the murderer, there is no motive for committing the crime. Their family has a good relationship and is definitely not acting. Why do you want to kill the killer?Even if the twins were a little jealous of the elder sister You Xinian in their hearts, and they wanted to kill the prince and ascend the throne, there was no need to kill their parents too.After all, they are still too young, without the protection of their parents, even if the entire Lotus is given to them, they will not be able to go far.

With this doubt in mind, Lu Man has been investigating in all aspects.

In fact, she has ruled out You Randong's suspicion.According to Wu Xiuying's recollection, You Randong ran to the kitchen to get something and left You's house that night. Lu Man checked the friends who were with him that night. It turned out that they were taking drugs, and what You Randong brought with him were drugs. .Knowing that there was a fire at home, You Randong came back as soon as possible. He was still in a state of confusion. Seeing his house burned like this, his parents and eldest sister were dead. Until he woke up from the hospital the next day, he thought it was a dream— — There are evidences for his series of actions. It is very unlikely that he is the murderer, or even an accomplice.

The rest is You Renxue.

Lu Man used to love You Renxue very much. Although the twins did not look much like You Xinnian, their voices were inherited from their mothers, and their voices were similar. Sometimes Lu Man misheard their voices.

Thinking of this, a thought suddenly struck.

Was it really Bai Xi who asked Wu Xiuying to go out to buy medicine that night?Or is it someone else with a similar voice that is more difficult to distinguish over the phone?

What if You Feng and Bai Xi were dead before Wu Xiuying got the call?Perhaps it was the murderer who called Wu Xiuying at that time.
