My Billionaire Exhusband Grovels Me After Divorce -
Chapter 1125 - 1125 1125 Is the killer really not him
Chapter 1125: Chapter 1125: Is the killer really not him? Chapter 1125: Chapter 1125: Is the killer really not him? Gu Chengqiao frowned, “What do you mean by that? Wasn’t your mother killed by a patient back then? How could this have anything to do with me?”
“She wasn’t killed by a patient.”
“No? I’ve checked the news, and that’s what it says.”
“The news only reports the surface; the truth is that the person who killed my mother was posing as a patient. In reality, he was a hitman hired for a high price, and he went to the medical hall specifically to kill my mother.”
Gu Chengqiao was stunned, “How is that possible? Could you be mistaken? Why would someone hire a hitman to kill her?”
“I am not mistaken; the hitman himself told me this.”
Qiao Yin stared hard at Gu Chengqiao, trying to discern something from his expression, “Furthermore, the hitman said that the person who hired him to kill my mother was from the Gu Family.”
Gu Chengqiao’s face suddenly turned pale with anger, “Nonsense! That’s absolutely impossible!”
“Impossible?”
Qiao Yin couldn’t help but reveal a hint of mockery, “The hitman didn’t blame it on someone else, he specifically named the Gu Family. Could he be a fortune-teller, then? Already knowing about my mother’s connection with the Gu Family? Speaking of which, I wouldn’t have even known about the link between my mother and the Gu Family if the hitman hadn’t told me! Tell me, how could he be so well-informed?”
Gu Chengqiao’s face became very unsightly, and he slumped into a chair, “It’s impossible, it just can’t be. She has been away from the Gu Family for so many years. Besides, she was kind to the Gu Family, so why would someone hire a hitman to kill her?”
Watching his expression, Qiao Yin couldn’t help but frown secretly. What’s going on? Gu Chengqiao seemed genuinely shocked, and it didn’t look like he was faking this disbelief and astonishment.
Could it be that he is not the murderer?
To further verify, Qiao Yin delivered another heavy blow, “By the way, you might not be aware, but the murderer who killed my mother wasn’t sentenced to death; he has now been released from prison. Isn’t it ridiculous? A murderer feigned insanity to escape the death penalty and is now living well. My mother’s life was simply lost in vain; it’s so unfair.”
“The police’s previous assessment report said that he had some mental problems, but in reality, he didn’t have any issues at all. He’s very shrewd. When I confronted him, he even laid out his reasoning clearly, telling me that someone else was the real culprit, and instructed me to let him go.”
“However, I really can’t trust the words of a murderer, so I had no choice but to come and ask you.”
If the murderer was Gu Chengqiao, then surely he would send someone to silence the hitman. Such a big vulnerability would be like a ticking time bomb, and Gu Chengqiao would never allow the hitman to live.
All she needed to do was quietly wait for the outcome.
If the murderer remains alive, then it would mean Gu Chengqiao is not the murderer, and she could use the same method to test Hou Jinhua later.
Testing them one by one, she was bound to find out.
“I don’t know, I had no idea your mother was deliberately murdered. I thought she just encountered a mentally ill patient,” Gu Chengqiao said, his face showing a pained expression: “How could it be like this? The people of the Gu Family were quite fond of your mother, why would anyone want her dead?”
“Why wouldn’t they? Doesn’t your wife always look at my mother with displeasure? She believes that my mother was the one who came between your marriage and always hated her. Tell me, could this have something to do with her?”
Without a second thought, Gu Chengqiao shook his head, “It’s impossible. Jinhua may have a hot temper, but she would never commit murder!”
Qiao Yin remained noncommittal; Hou Jinhua was clearly capable of doing all sorts of outrageous things.
Gu Chengqiao continued, “Moreover, I haven’t divorced her. There’s no need for her to hire a hitman to kill your mother so many years after she left. It doesn’t make sense.”
Qiao Yin actually felt this point made little sense too. Whether it was Gu Chengqiao or Hou Jinhua, there seemed to be no reason for them to kill her mother seven years after she had left the Gu Family.
But they were indeed the two most suspect individuals.
There must be some crucial detail being overlooked; things might not be as simple as they seem on the surface.
