The curtains were drawn, and the living room was instantly dim. A sense of mystery followed.
Everyone sat around the coffee table. The game officially began!
Apart from Su Ji, the other four took turns to narrate.
Su Ji rested her chin on one hand and twirled a pen in her hand, sitting casually.
The four of them said that they didn’t know anything about the note, let alone who had saved Xiao Lian back then.
But at the same time, all four of them were suspects.
One, Cao Zhuzhu played the role of a warm-hearted police officer who knew Xiao Lian the best. He watched her grow up, and he was also the one who handled the arson case back then.
At the beginning of the arson case, the police felt sorry for Xiao Lian. He did not believe that her mother committed suicide and even vowed to find the real murderer.
However, during the investigation process, the police’s attitude towards Xiao
Lian became colder and colder. In the end, the arson case was still closed with Xiao Lian’s mother’s suicide. Xiao Lian thought that he must know something, but he kept quiet after several questions.
Two: Yang Xiaotao’s male best friend.
Every time Xiao Lian stood on the roof or by the bridge and wanted to commit suicide, he would always appear at the first moment. He would stall for time with her while asking the police for help. He was a genuine warm man who fit the persona of a ‘savior’.
Three: Nan Miaomiao as Xiao Lian’s adoptive mother.
The woman was mean and had never cared about Xiao Lian. She was only biased towards her biological daughter, who was not related to Xiao Lian by blood.
It seemed that the adoptive mother was the least likely, but every time Xiao Lian failed to commit suicide and was sent to the police station, the adoptive mother would always patiently go to the police station to pick her up and bring her home.
Xiao Lian was already 18 years old. If the mother hated her, she could completely ignore her. However, she could always insist on her duties as an adoptive mother. This was very contrary to her character.
Fourth, the last person was the philanthropist Jiang Chu was playing.
In the past few years, Xiao Lian had never met the female philanthropist, and she knew the least. Later, when Xiao Lian was searching for the truth, the two of them met.
At first, Xiao Lian only knew that she was very rich and was only six years older than her.
However, she later found another strange clue. There was also a well-preserved note in the female philanthropist’s study. Someone used the same sentence to wish the female entrepreneur a happy birthday.
So… who sent the note to the philanthropist?
If it was the same person who sent Xiao Lian the note, then the philanthropist also knew the savior?
All the clues seemed to be in a mess, but they seemed to be connected by a transparent line. If they could find that line, then they would be able to see the sun, and all the mysteries would be solved.
Who loved Xiao Lian?
Players could only describe the information they had unlocked in order, so not only Su Ji, but the others did not know whether they were good or bad. They were also seriously analyzing the plot.
Nan Miaomiao looked at her roommate with a smile.
She had played it before, so she had a god’s perspective now.
Just as the atmosphere in the living room was at its most tense, there was an ear-piercing screech.
Jiang Chu propped himself up on the coffee table again. He was on the verge of collapse. “I need to go to the bathroom!” Nan Miaomiao:
He had messed up a good game!
She pursed her lips and looked back at Su Ji. “Roommate, do you want me to give you a hint to help you eliminate a wrong choice?”
Su Ji looked at the information in her hand and stroked her chin with her slender and fair fingers. “Bestie?” She asked calmly, “I’ve already ruled him out…’
Nan Miaomiao was speechless.
How did she know?
Yang Xiaotao, who was playing the male best friend, also pricked up her ears. “Why? I feel that ‘I’ am the most likely!”
Su Jit s tone was calm. ‘According to the case, ‘I’ was carried out of the fire by ‘the Savior’, and ‘you’ and ‘I’ were the same age. They were both six years old when the fire broke out. It’s too far-fetched to ask a six-year-old boy to carry ‘me’ dozens of meters away from the scene of the fire.”
Unless that person was Pei Huai.
Her fiancé was born with divine strenzth.
Yang Xiaotao suddenly realized and slammed her head on the coffee table regretfully.
She thought that she was destined to be her idol’s savior…
Nan Miaomiao looked surprised.
The hint that they were of the same age would only be unlocked in the next chapter!
Her roommate actually guessed it in advance?
Cao Zhuzhu spoke up at this moment, “then from a physical point of view, ‘I’ should be the most likely. ‘I’ was originally a police officer, and from the clues, ‘I’ should have been secretly in love with Xiao Lian’s mother, so I couldn’t accept the fact that she committed suicide at the beginning. Since I had a crush on her, it’s normal for me to rush into the fire to save Xiao Lian. Later on, during the investigation, I might have discovered some secret about Xiao Lian’s mother, which made ‘me’ feel disappointed in her. Therefore, I don’t want Xiao Lian to know that I was the one who saved her back then…
As expected of Cao Zhuzhu, her analysis was logical and rigorous. Su Ji curled her lips in satisfaction.
However, just as Cao Zhuzhu was about to be happy, Su Ji smiled and shook her head. “Good analysis, but unfortunately, you missed the most crucial part.”
Cao Zhuzhu: “It’s not ‘met??”
“No.” Su Ji’s peach blossom eyes were deep and crafty.” It’s true that ‘you’ had a crush on ‘my’ mother. You could even say that you were obsessed with her. But because of this, if ‘you’ were the first to enter the fire, ‘you’ would definitely choose to save ‘my’ mother first, not ‘me’, so…you are out”
Cao Zhuzhu: ‘
Nan Miaomiao’s expression turned grave.
It had only been ten minutes since the game started, but her roommate had already eliminated two of the four suspects!
Afraid that she would not have a chance to perform, Nan Miaomiao’s mouth twitched. She quickly drew everyone’s attention to her character.
No matter how much she said, Su Ji scoffed softly. “Don’t confuse us. You’re just a vicious adoptive mother, not you.”
Nan Miaomiao opened her mouth in shock. Cao Zhuzhu and Yang Xiaotao looked at her at the same time.
Nan Miaomiao tried to defend herself. “How can you be so sure? Are you sure you don’t want to consider it? Maybe I just look vicious, but my heart is soft and my mouth is sharp? Otherwise, how do you explain that ‘I’ would always go to the police station to pick ‘you’ up?
While everyone was still confused, Su Ji had already grabbed the transparent rope and connected all the clues.
She threw the documents on the coffee table and leaned back against the sofa.
“You’re fulfilling your duty as a foster mother just so that you can continue to receive monthly child support from the savior.”
Nan Miaomiao immediately felt guilty when she heard that. Yang Xiaotao squinted at her.
She was indeed vicious!
Cao Zhuzhu seemed to have understood something after Su Ji’s reminder. She suddenly looked up . So according to my analysis, the ‘savior’ can only be…”
“That’s right.” Su Ji narrowed her eyes and looked at Jiang Chu, who had just come out of the bathroom and was still in a daze. “She was only twelve years old and could not carry ‘my’ mother, who was an adult, and could only choose
to save ‘me’….”
