Chapter 24: Assault — How many points did you get?

♕

Despite Ye Zhen Zhen having gone to Dr. Zhang twice more for hypnosis treatment afterwards, no clear results emerged. The face of the man in the suit was still hidden from her, inevitably making her somewhat impatient.

On the other side of the city, the police's investigation had also come to a standstill. Li Xin Ran flipped through the files on the table, a little fidgety, before turning to face Zuo Yi. "Are you saying that chick Ye Zhen Zhen, in order to avoid suspicion, deliberately made up a man in a suit as a red herring?"

Being a businessman, Ye Kang Ping, normally wore suits for the most part, with black suits being his most common form of dress. Ye Zhen Zhen's casual words had an 80% probability of having him shot even while lying down.  1

Zuo Yi gazed at the computer for a moment before slowly shaking his head. "I asked Dr. Zhang about her psychiatric treatment. He said the odds of her telling lies are extremely low. Furthermore..." He opened a still of Qin Kong. It was not very clear, as if the surveillance footage had been cut off. "Even though Qin Kong was wearing a light gray suit when he left A City, it doesn't eliminate him as a suspect. He could've changed clothes after the murder. " After all, the victim's blood surely would've splashed onto his clothes.

Li Xin Ran frowned. He had always felt that Leader seemed to be targeting Qin Kong. To him, it appeared that Ye Kang Ping and Ye Zhen Zhen were much more suspicious. However, Leader remained fixated upon Qin Kong, refusing to let go. Could it be that...it was because he was Ye Zhen Zhen's fiancé?

Li Xin Ran, with such divergent connections, immediately felt he had reached a horrifying conclusion.

"What nonsense are you thinking about?" Zuo Yi tossed the video cassette to Li Xin Ran before leaning back against his chair, stretching. "Look through the surveillance again, try to see if there are any blind spots. "

Li Xin Ran choked out an affirmative and began to examine the videotape from the beginning for the nth time. He truly couldn't understand—if the Ye Family was so wealthy, why weren't there any surveillance cameras installed? Had that been the case, their investigation wouldn't have ended up without a single trail of clues the way it had! In addition to the fact that there were no surveillance cameras, the Ye Mansion was also out of the way, and the crime had been discovered very late at night with no eyewitnesses. The case truly...brought him to tears.

Meanwhile, at school, Ye Zhen Zhen was also...brought to tears.

33 points; out of a total of 100 points for the English exam papers, she had only scored 33.

She was both mentally and physically exhausted.

"Zhen Zhen, how many points did you get?" Pei Cui Cui approached quietly, placing her 81 point exam paper on the table in the most eye-catching position.

Ye Zhen Zhen: "..."

How? How did Pei Cui Cui, who never attended class, score an 81? Could it be that this was the exam-type athlete spoken of in legends?

Right now, she could only remain silent.

"Haha, you actually got a 33. How did you pass Level 4?!" Pei Cui Cui began to dance with joy when she caught sight of Ye Zhen Zhen's paper, as if she had discovered the New World.

Ye Zhen Zhen's brows rose up. She had already passed her Level 4?

At long last, she saw a bit of hope.

She shoved the exam paper into her bag and left the classroom, gaze fixed ahead of her. Pei Cui Cui curled her lips at Ye Zhen Zhen's departing figure and continued to be immeasurably pleased with herself.
