Chapter 224: Chapter 224: His Heart is Sweeter than Anything (50+ Monthly Tickets Update)

Suizi was indeed scared, but not in the way that Wang Hui had thought.

Instead, it was the part of Wang Hui’s story about sharpening a knife and muttering names that matched the news she had seen in her previous life.

So, Wang sister was the woman who was brutally slaughtered in the news...

Wei Si, the demonic man who killed his ex-wife!

Such vicious cases had been rare since the founding of the country and Suizi always thought that she was far removed from them.

Yet, to think, it involved someone close to her.

Suizi shuddered as she realized that Zhang Linlin, who was bragging and showing off yesterday, was no longer among the living today.

Looking at the vibrant Wang sister in front of her, Suizi couldn’t imagine that she was also...

Suizi reached out and firmly grasped Wang Hui’s hand.

"Wang sister, you must stay away from Wei Si in the future. You mustn’t go near him!"

Wei Si was small and frail, and portrayed a weak image in public. For Jingting, beating him up was as easy as chopping cabbage.

But it is often the seemingly weak ones whose inner darkness cannot be fathomed.

"I’d like to cut contact with him, but our daughter was granted to him. I wanted to see my child but can’t avoid him."

The other night, he had tricked her, saying their daughter was sick.

When Wangh Hui went to see her, he brutally beat her and tried to do unspeakable things to her.

She ran and he chased after her. If Jingting hadn’t intervened in time, she might have been in grave danger.

"Every time, he uses our child to threaten me. To win over the child, he slanders me, ruins my reputation, and adds that his mother is seriously ill. The court, taking all factors into consideration, granted him the child."

"This is outrageous—there are such disgusting men in the world." Suizi noticed that Wang sister’s collar hid a bruise.

This had to be the result of that scumbag’s beatings.

"Sis, I’ll tell you something... some say marriage is a must for women, but I don’t think so. When my daughter grows up, if there’s no suitable man around, it’s better to stay single than to end up with a man like her damned father!"

Suizi nodded and patted her belly in agreement.

"If I have a girl in my belly, I’ll teach her the same. It’s better to rely on yourself than on anyone else. You can tolerate everything but never tolerate your own suffering. Who says a woman must marry?"

The views of these two women were too ahead of times that in this era, if heard by others, they might think these two were mad.

But it was this mutual understanding that made the friendship between Suizi and Wang Hui grow rapidly.

When Suizi left Wang Hui, she was no longer worried about her own man’s situation.

Jingting would be released sooner or later, but who really killed Zhang Linlin?

The first person that came to Suizi’s mind was Wei Si.

Weisi wanted to turn Wang sister into cured meat in his previous life, so he was completely capable of committing crimes.

Jingting had mentioned earlier that a headless body was also found at the construction site.

Could it have been Weisi’s doing as well?

Could he be the serial killer?

Suizi wanted to tell Liao Yong, but what about the evidence?

Claiming that she could foresee what Wei Si was going to do?

She’d be considered crazy and locked in a mental hospital.

An idea suddenly struck Suizi.

She went directly to the police station.

"Hey old friend, why are you here? I told you, your man won’t be in trouble. We’ve already sent people to the hospital to verify. As long as they confirm he was in the hospital all night last night, he can go home."

The case was so big that many people besides Jingting were brought in for questioning, but the suspicion against Jingting was the least.

"I came to report a situation, overlooked yesterday."

What Suizi said drew Liao Yong’s attention.

With such a huge crime occurring in their peaceful city, their superiors were furious. They had to catch the real culprit as quickly as possible to return peace to the people.

"Yesterday, when Zhang Linlin made a scene at the night school and argued with my husband, she called Weisi by name in an overly familiar tone. Their relationship definitely wasn’t as simple as superior and subordinate. I overlooked this detail."

As Suizi spoke, Liao Yong and others made rapid notes.

"Although I don’t have any evidence to suggest anything was going on between them, this is a woman’s intuition—I wasn’t sure whether to tell you. If I’m wrong, it could interfere with your investigation."

Suizi’s words were irrefutable.

Intuition can be either right or wrong.

She merely provided a direction. How to investigate further was up to the police.

The point was to steer the investigation towards Wei Si.

If he was the murderer, he deserved to be caught.

If he wasn’t, the investigation would still serve as a deterrent, discouraging Wei Si from harboring such dangerous thoughts in the future—

With this thought, Suizi added,

"I just came from Wang Hui, Wei Si’s ex-wife. During their marriage, Wei Si once mentioned wanting to turn people into cured meat."

Actually, he hadn’t said that. He had merely sharpened a knife in the middle of the night.

But Suizi intentionally said so.

By speaking through a brave police officer, such words were enough to knock Wei Si down a peg.

She hoped that it would frighten Wei Si enough to abandon such thoughts in the future.

"Old friend, the clues you provided are very valuable to us." Liao Yong enthusiastically shook hands with Suizi.

"It’s a civic duty. As you know, my husband and I don’t ask for our names to be written down for our good deeds, but this time it does affect my husband."

As soon as Suizi spoke, Liao Yong felt a chill down his spine. The small hand he was holding felt like a cactus, prickling his palm.

"When you guys came to take my husband, many of our neighbors saw. We were just awarded the title of Civilized Family, so we had already attracted a lot of attention—"

Suizi pretended to wipe the corner of her eye.

"The reason we received this honor was because my husband saved Wang Hui. When Wei Si tried to harm Wang Hui, my husband bravely stepped in despite the difficulties. The neighbors all witnessed this."

Suizi spoke eloquently, painting Jingting as a hero, much like the heroic Zhao Zilong who bravely rescued the lord at Changban slope.

"Old friend, rest assured. As long as we confirm that your husband did save someone, our station will personally deliver a commendation banner to him."

Suizi was finally satisfied.

"We don’t need the bonus. We don’t do good deeds for money."

Just for reputation.

She wanted to retrieve the just evaluation the world owed her husband.

Those from the Wang family compound and the surrounding villagers once looked down on her husband. In the future, they would have to look up to him, unable to reach him.

Suizi admitted, on this issue, she was indeed a bit obsessed.

But for her beloved man, for the man that made the moon beautiful, what was wrong with being obsessed?

Jingting walked out of the station, stretching lazily, a cigarette given to him by a police officer still in his mouth.

When he looked up, he felt that the plump woman across the street looked a lot like his wife.

"Jingting!" Suizi enthusiastically waved.

"Jesus! Why aren’t you home in this freezing weather? Why are you standing here?"

Jingting threw away the half-smoked cigarette from his mouth, complaining with a sincere expression.

The moon in the sky couldn’t match half of his current sweet mood.
