You Owe Me, My Love Chapter 287

Chapter 287 The Truth

Bai Rong knew Lu Biao would discover her real identity.

After I left, Lu Biao must’ve gone home and threw a tantrum.

His mother must’ve spoken badly of me and revealed my real identity.

“I rushed over to save you the minute I knew you were in trouble.” Bai Rong joked. “Are you looking down on me because I’m a psychologist?”

“Help me? How much did my daddy pay you to help me?” Lu Biao sneered.

Bai Rong’s reply was firm. “Previously, I was paid to be your psychologist. This time, no one paid me to be here.”

Lu Biao studied her carefully as though he wanted to see through her lie. She was being sincere, so he couldn’t say anything.

“Are you here to save me because you’re concerned for me?” Lu Biao faltered.

“As long as you’re innocent, I’ll prove your innocence within the law. I won’t allow anyone to frame you.”

Immediately, Lu Biao broke down. “Ms. Bai, I didn’t kill anyone. It wasn’t me!”

Bai Rong asked, “Why did you appear at the crime scene?”

“My mom deliberately let the classmates who bullied me off and fired you. I was mad and wanted to do something to express my anger, so I punctured their tires. They knew it was me, so they persuaded Zhang Chunxia to call the police, saying that I raped her.”

He revealed, “That day, I wanted to warn Zhang Chunxia and pried the door open. After opening the door, I realized there was a pungent stench of blood in the air. I also heard Zhang Chunxia wailing desperately.”

“I knew something must’ve happened, so I tiptoed in and went to Zhang Chunxia’s room. She was lying in her bed, naked. Something foamy had blocked her private parts and mouth. Her throat was also bleeding.” © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

“Next, I went to the room next to hers. Her mom was on the bed, also dead. Her limbs were chopped off in a horrible manner.” He didn’t leave out a single detail.

“Since her mom was there, I wondered where was her dad. As I was afraid of leaving my fingerprints at the crime scene, I wiped off my fingerprints on the doorknobs of both her room and her mom’s room.”

“Finally, I found her dad lying naked in the bathroom. His sex organ was chopped off, but…” he trailed off suddenly.

“But what?” Bai Rong’s instincts told her this might be an important clue.

Lu Biao glanced at her and the food she brought for him before replying, “There was a phone on the sink. I saw a few gruesome videos in it, so I took it with me.”

“When I left her house, I ran into some people. I knew they would blame it on me. Indeed, they tattled about me to the police.”

“Why didn’t you say anything? If you stay quiet, it will be a very unfavorable situation for you.” Bai Rong frowned at his answer.

“The methods used were too unique, so they must be professionals. I wanted to see if the police could arrest them without my help. That was why I said nothing.”

At the sight of the dangerous gleam which flashed across Lu Biao’s eyes, Bai Rong had a bad feeling in her gut.

Lu Biao was still a kid, a blank piece of paper that would absorb anything he saw. The guidance he received would shape his character.

We must find the murderer and make sure he or she receives punishment. Otherwise, Lu Biao will grow up with a twisted mind.

“Go ahead and eat. I’ll go get a glass of water.” Bai Rong walked out of the interrogation room.

Lu Biao opened the box obediently.

“You made Lu Biao talk the moment you came. But why didn’t you ask about the contents on the phone?” Chen Bin asked curiously.

“First, he said he wanted to see if the police are capable. Hence, he wouldn’t reveal anything even if I asked that question. Second, he mentioned the term professional hitmen. I think the culprits recorded themselves committing the crime but didn’t reveal anything about themselves. That means it would be difficult to find out who they are using the video.”

“Was it a serial killer who picked his victims randomly? But until now, we haven’t seen similar cases anywhere. This doesn’t seem to be the first case, though. How strange.” Chen Bin knitted his brows.

Being new in his position, he feared having to handle strange cases like this.

“Random murder?” Bai Rong narrowed her gaze in frustration. It was as if they were looking for a needle in a haystack. There was no clue whatsoever.

“Can we get the video? It might be a slim chance, but at least it’s better than nothing,” suggested Chen Bin.

Bai Rong shook her head. “Don’t get the videos from Lu Biao. Otherwise, he might doubt your abilities. Where did you arrest him?”

“At his house. Why?” asked Chen Bin.

Bai Rong answered, “Lu Biao described it as a perfect crime. I’m sure he kept the evidence well. You should search his house again. Perhaps he might’ve saved it in his cloud storage.” Bai Rong stated her suggestion.

Immediately, Chen Bin ordered his subordinates to carry out a search while Bai Rong returned to the interrogation room with a glass of water.

After entering the room, she said nothing and watched as Lu Biao wolfed down the food greedily.

She parted her lips to ask, “Did your father come visit you after you were arrested?”

Lu Biao shrugged without a care in the world. “The murder case caused a stir, so I think he wants me dead. Anyway, we’re not close to each other.”

“He paid me a lot to be your psychologist back then. I believe he loves you.”

“Ha!” Lu Biao sneered. “Money can’t buy love. He can for out money willingly, but refuses to invest his feelings. Sometimes, I hate being his son. I can’t feel any love from him.”

“I’ve never told you my story, did I? My story is far more surreal than this. I will tell you everything after saving you.” Bai Rong rose to her feet.

Lu Biao stood up, too. “Ms. Bai, why are you so kind to me? We’ve only known each other for a short time.”

“We’re all the same. Fate brought us together.” Bai Rong smiled. “Besides, it’s mutual. You defended me in front of your mother. I’m touched that you trusted me. You’ll be staying here for a few days, so I’ll deliver food to you every day.”

“Ms. Bai.” Lu Biao seemed touched. “I have another clue. The lady dropped an earring. I picked it up and placed it in a book. Perhaps there’s a fingerprint on the earring.”

Bai Rong flashed a grin.

Making one mistake doesn’t mean one will be in the wrong forever. Lu Biao has a chance to correct his mistake.

“I’ll come again tomorrow.”

When Bai Rong came out of the room, Chen Bin thanked her gratefully. “That was amazing. The boy finally revealed everything. As long as there’s a fingerprint on the earring, we can run a search using our database. We’ll find the culprits and solve the case soon.” He heaved a sigh of relief. “Well, looks like it has nothing to do with Lu Biao. We don’t have to risk offending the governor now.”

Bai Rong merely smiled. She had a hunch that things were not as simple as they seemed.
