Simulated Crime, This Criminal Doesn’t Seem to Be Acting

Super Intelligence seemed to be determined that Ye Sangsang had successfully completed her mission, so after asking for the suspect's information, it provided the data.

At the same time, it also offered some internal information about the case itself.

Ye Sangsang sighed; the case files were all here, very comprehensive.

Perhaps, these documents have always existed in this copy, waiting for the right person to open them.

The case was twenty years old, and the perpetrators had not been found, which was a heartbreaking regret for many.

Similar to the case involving Qin Jiang, someone was hoping that one day, through a game, they would gain a slim hope.

Ye Sangsang was not a justice-driven person; on the contrary, she lacked a sense of justice, and her ideas and values were skewed.

It was only decades of education that had given her the ability to judge right from wrong.

Of course, her purpose in obtaining the files was not because she believed in the righteousness of the cause.

She simply belonged to a group of people with a strong sense of revenge, wanting to find the culprit for retribution.

Ye Sangsang split her attention, thinking while reviewing the documents.

The internal case materials solved some of her doubts.

For example, as she had guessed, one of the couple had survived: it was Shen Lingling. Unfortunately, the injuries were too severe, and despite two days of emergency treatment, she remained in critical condition.

She endured until the end of her life, revealing all the information she knew before succumbing to her injuries and passing away.

From the documents, it was evident that many of the scenes in the copy had been built based on her testimony.

However, Ye Sangsang still wasn't sure if it was an accident that Shen Lingling had survived for a while.

Or perhaps, they resented the couple's love and did it out of jealousy.

Alternatively, maybe it was intentional, with some unknown purpose.

Combined with her previous speculations about their actions, she felt she was missing a crucial piece of information.

She believed that if she had this information, she could unlock their next moves and successfully apprehend them all.

Ye Sangsang thought intensely, but to no avail; she couldn't imagine something she didn't have.

She began to review the suspect's files. The photos matched the appearance she had seen in the game.

Her previous deductions were correct; Lin Deqiang had killed before and was a wanted fugitive.

Wang Lao'er and Zhao Hong had served two years in prison for petty theft. They had been cellmates and naturally reconnected after their release, seeking a livelihood. Later, they engaged in some theft again, though they hadn't been caught.

Then, for unknown reasons, they met Lin Deqiang, and the three joined forces.

As for the suspect Qiu Fu, before this, he had been an ordinary person with no criminal record, working as a primary school teacher. Later, he got involved with a woman in the flesh trade, got reported by his wife, and ultimately decided to divorce and quit his job to move to another city with the woman.

Because they likely took a bus without real-name registration, the police couldn't trace where he had gone. After that, they had no idea what happened to him.

At that time, the public security system was not nationwide networked, and a lot of information required dedicated people to make phone calls and conduct investigations. Once something broke, the rest was untraceable.

So they speculated that Qiu Fu, for money or some reason, joined the other three.

When three or four men get together, a bad idea often emerges.

The police speculated they were short on money and targeted Shen Lingling and Chen Yu.

Plus, they envied the couple's smooth lives and decided to torture them.

Especially Qiu Fu, who had been a teacher before.

Quitting such a respectable job and then not having money would make him a failure in the eyes of society. Under such circumstances, he easily fell into imbalance, hating the couple, also teachers, and thus choosing them as targets.

After the robbery, they quickly left the city and disappeared into the vast sea of people.

The case shook the small town, and the police conducted numerous investigations, but they only uncovered this much information.

As for the suspects, they seemed to vanish into thin air.

The investigation eventually led to an unsolved case.

While thinking, Shen Lingling's parents walked in. They no longer looked at their daughter with pitying eyes but instead placed a thermos beside her, saying, "Eat something."

They dared not look at their daughter with pity, as it would remind her of the previous trauma.

"Okay," Ye Sangsang agreed.

At this moment, Shen Lingling's father quickly stepped forward, raised the hospital bed to make it easier for her to eat. The two elders stood on either side, their eyes reddened, as they fed their daughter bit by bit.

Their gaze contained countless unspoken words and emotions, their hands slightly trembling as they watched their daughter slowly drink the soup, smiling in satisfaction.

Ye Sangsang observed them for two seconds, smiled slightly, and softly said, "It's very tasty."

"Drink more. Chen Yu can't have it now, but we'll wait until after his surgery. His operation is about to end, and then we'll buy a wheelchair and push you to his ward." Shen Jianghe wiped his daughter's mouth with a tissue, softly outlining their plans.

As an affectionate couple who had been through hardships together, this was a natural arrangement.

Ye Sangsang nodded, slowly sipping the soup, not choosing to skip the timeline.

Although her body was in great pain, she was not completely immobile. The couple hired a caretaker, and with Shen Jianghe, they carefully moved Ye Sangsang onto a wheelchair.

They wheeled her through the hospital corridors, into the elevator, and up to the surgical floor. Soon, they arrived at the surgery room.

There were many people here, and Ye Sangsang quickly saw Chen Yu's parents, who were crying their eyes out.

Seeing Ye Sangsang's condition, they cried even harder, whispering that they hadn't come to see her because they were too busy here, constantly needing to sign consent forms.

Ye Sangsang didn't mind; all she wanted to know was whether Chen Yu would survive.

She guessed that completing the "escape to survive" mission perfectly involved Chen Yu surviving. She hoped he would pull through; otherwise, her perfect completion would only be a bare completion.

After the group exchanged some words, they waited quietly for about half an hour, and Chen Yu came out.

The doctor glanced at Ye Sangsang in the wheelchair, obviously aware of her situation, and emphasized to her, "He's out of life-threatening danger. He'll need to stay in the ICU for two or three days to observe his condition. After things stabilize, he can be transferred to a regular ward for recovery."

Immediately, a wave of crying sounded around, tears of joy.

Ye Sangsang sat still, softly thanking him, and followed the gurney to the ICU door, watching as Chen Yu was wheeled in.

Their group attracted a lot of attention.

Many people whispered to each other, pointing at Ye Sangsang.

Evidently, the incident at the square had spread across the entire small town.

"Lingling, focus on your recovery and don't think about anything else. As for Chen Yu, we'll take good care of him; don't worry," Chen Yu's mother, sympathizing with Ye Sangsang, comforted her.

Ye Sangsang gently nodded, was wheeled back to her ward, as it was time for her medication and dressing changes.

After doing so, she logged off, waiting for the timeline to jump before taking further action.

She opened her eyes to see the nurse's disapproving gaze.

Ye Sangsang glanced around and realized she had played for an extra half an hour.

Rarely, she smiled at the nurse, who was taken aback and instantly blushed. She stood up, turned her head, and started preparing Ye Sangsang's medication.

This was the nurse who had earlier kindly delivered a letter for her, a new recruit, so she was relatively friendly toward Ye Sangsang. Other nurses, however, did not have a good impression of her and generally avoided her.

This stemmed from Ye Sangsang's reason for being admitted.

Although this was patient privacy and not to be disclosed, to the nurses, it wasn't a secret.

Because the reason for her admission was astonishing to many, news of it spread throughout the hospital, leading them to treat her coldly.

Ye Sangsang had no intention of accusing them; self-preservation was human nature.

She was just a bit curious about the young nurse's thoughts.

She reached out, took the medicine handed to her, and asked with interest, "Aren't you afraid of me?"

She was simply curious about the nurse's actions, as she should have been "informed" and still acted this way.

"I... I'm a fan of yours... Although you seem terrifying in the game, I think your condition is controllable, and you wouldn't impulsively do... something like that..." The nurse looked at Ye Sangsang as she swallowed her pills one by one. She blushed and fidgeted with her fingers for a few seconds before stuttering out her words.

Ye Sangsang gave her a faint smile. "Don't be deceived by appearances. Judging by looks alone isn't reliable."

"It's not about looks. I just feel that you're not that kind of person. What others say is their opinion," the nurse said, lowering her head as if to defend her stance.

Ye Sangsang extended her hand, placed the cup down, and looked at her. "Thank you for your trust."

"I hope you recover soon and get discharged," she smiled.

Ye Sangsang lowered her gaze and after a little while, slowly nodded.

The nurse left with a cheerful step, and Ye Sangsang gazed out the window, pondering how much longer she would be discharged. She wanted to change her scenery.

She slowly got out of bed, supported herself with her hand on the table, and walked slowly to the window. The dappled sunlight on the lush green leaves was beautiful. No matter how realistic the holographic game was, it lacked the vibrancy of reality.

That kind of vitality is invisible.

She managed to stand for two minutes, then moved to her wheelchair and pulled out her phone, calling the head of the family office managing her current assets.

"Help me check if Star Ring has arranged other people in the instance of the game I'm currently playing." Ye Sangsang directly requested the search.

This was a team her mother had left for her, managing her current assets and handling whatever they could. Searching this might be a bit difficult, but for them, it shouldn't be too hard.

As expected, the next moment, the other party immediately agreed, saying they would get the answer by tomorrow afternoon.

Ye Sangsang was about to hang up when the other party spoke again.

"Ms. Ye, your father is currently claiming that since you have lost your capacity for civil conduct, as your guardian, he is demanding that the office hand over all the assets and family trust we are currently managing." The other party calmly informed Ye Sangsang of the situation and added, "Although we have delayed his takeover by requesting him to go through legal proceedings to obtain his guardian status."

"But you know, if your mental condition doesn't recover, we may have to comply with legal documents and give him the management power of your assets and family trust."

In short, if the other party sues, Ye Sangsang might lose everything she has.

Even though her mother had prepared for all possible risks, she still couldn't foresee such a scenario.

Ye Sangsang paused before saying, "You should coordinate with the lawyer. I trust your ability, and you should trust Ms. Ye Xin; her upbringing hasn't failed."

"...I'm just gently urging you to avoid getting too addicted to the game," she directly reminded.

Ye Sangsang nodded, allowing the other party to check the situation with Star Ring first.

After hanging up, Ye Sangsang continued her daily routine.

Rehabilitation helped her gradually regain the sensation of walking, and she felt good about it, as wheelchairs were quite inconvenient.

Afternoon nap, dinner, Ye Sangsang still kept to herself with no disturbances.

At 8 pm, Ye Sangsang put on her game equipment as usual, starting her daily gaming session.

The live stream chat was lively, and Ye Sangsang glanced at it before entering the instance.

After jumping time lines, Ye Sangsang arrived three days later.

With medication and care, she could already slowly walk around the room.

Although there was still some pain, it was nothing compared to the previous pain.

Ye Sangsang did some walking exercises for a while, and her pace also became faster.

Chen Yu also came out of ICU, moved to a regular ward, and his recovery was going well.

When Ye Sangsang arrived at his ward, she happened to see Jiang Li questioning Chen Yu.

Chen Yu's answers were similar to Ye Sangsang's, and Jiang Li comforted him before getting up and saw Ye Sangsang.

Ye Sangsang looked at her, "May I ask if there are any leads?"

Was it another case of the suspects fleeing, sinking into the sea?

To be honest, Ye Sangsang didn't believe they had left; they were probably just hiding too well to be found.

"We tracked their car, but soon lost the trail. We are now searching the entire city. We have dispatched other police officers to other cities to investigate the backgrounds and possible whereabouts of the four suspects," Jiang Li said, her confidence less than last time. Three days without finding anything made her feel a bit guilty.

Ye Sangsang nodded, "Okay, I believe in you." She didn't think the other party was useless.

Those people were likely well-prepared. If they could be easily found, the real world wouldn't have unsolved cases.

Jiang Li comforted Ye Sangsang a few times, then turned around and said as she left, "Try not to go out, and be careful."

"Okay, we will," Ye Sangsang replied.

Those people knew they were still alive and might harbor revenge, so Jiang Li's reminder was necessary.

Watching her back, Ye Sangsang suddenly asked, "I think you can conduct a net-like search around the area. I feel they might have committed another crime or are planning one. Based on their behavior patterns, I think they might create a situation where you can't see the obvious truth right in front of you, hiding in plain sight."

This was Qiu Fu's behavior habit.

He despised the other three people, harboring a kind of aloof attitude, which could be seen from his refusal to participate in the assault. He was disdainful of sharing, as it would make him feel on the same level as the others.

He probably had a desire to show off, wanting to witness his own success.

This stemmed from the pride of being a well-educated teacher, wanting others to know that he would never be a failure.

Making a big scene and personally observing should be one of his thoughts.

Therefore, Ye Sangsang believed he might hide in plain sight, using the police's extensive search to secretly observe from a place close to the police but where the police would think they wouldn't be.

Of course, this behavior wasn't purely for showing off.

He could also use this to gather information on police movements for their next actions.

And in these three days, they might have done something else.

It's just that the police haven't discovered it yet or haven't paid attention to it.

Ye Sangsang now only lacked a reason: why did they have to kill three days after the torture, instead of quickly robbing and killing when they first entered the room?

In reality, in many home invasion robbery-homicide cases, perpetrators were afraid of being discovered and caught if they delayed, so they quickly committed the crime and left.

Even if they had a tendency to torture, they wouldn't delay or necessarily have to kill at a specific time.

So Ye Sangsang deduced that there must be a very crucial reason for this.

But she really couldn't think of what the reason was.

"Shen Lingling?" Jiang Li called out to Ye Sangsang, who was deep in thought. When she looked up, Jiang Li asked, "You just mentioned hiding in plain sight? Do you know something?"

Ye Sangsang had lost herself in continuous thinking and was brought back to reality by the other party. She looked at Jiang Li and shook her head, "It's not that I know something, it's just a feeling I have. If the police can't find them under the current deployment, then perhaps it's better to look closer to home first."

"What you said... makes sense," Jiang Li nodded thoughtfully.

Although she didn't know why Ye Sangsang had such thoughts, if they couldn't find them and they might not have left the city, there could be a situation where they were hiding in plain sight.

For example, in the past, there were cases where suspects stayed in a house across from the police station, watching the police station every day, precisely controlling the police's movements, which made the police unable to find them.

It was only later, when they noticed someone was watching them, that they caught this group of brazen suspects.

Thinking of this, she looked up at Ye Sangsang, "Then I won't disturb you anymore. Be careful, and we will catch them as soon as possible to comfort the grievances you've suffered."

"Okay, goodbye," Ye Sangsang, leaning against the wall, watched her leave.

After Jiang Li left, Ye Sangsang entered Chen Yu's ward.

He was very weak, lying in bed, his face pale and bloodless, one hand wrapped due to a fracture, the other hand with an IV drip.

Upon seeing Ye Sangsang, he gave a faint smile, his eyes moist with emotion, and said, "Don't be afraid, the nightmare is over. Trust that the police will find the murderer, and we will soon return to our peaceful lives."

He comforted Ye Sangsang, while also reassuring himself.

Aware that the couple had things to discuss, the others exited the room.

Ye Sangsang sat by his bedside, nodding to him.

"It's all behind us now, let's live well from here on out," she said.

【Thinking about how both of them died in reality, I feel so heartbroken.】

【Sobbing, they really were as loving as the reports said. Chen Yu died while holding Shen Lingling, trying to protect her.】

【At least in this virtual world, we get a comforting ending. I hope Ye Sangsang catches the bad guys and avenges them!】

Ye Sangsang was unaware of the activity in the livestream, she was merely acting according to her character’s role.

As a player, she was fully aware that all of this was an illusion.

It was only at this moment that she truly understood why the immersive game wasn't creating a simple second world, but instead chose a theme like "Crime Archive."

Aside from the part in the promotional material about warning against crime, it was also because the immersion technology was so powerful. Only through such a theme could one be constantly reminded that this was all fictional.

Of course, perhaps they also wanted to solve some real-life unsolved cases.

Lastly, they likely aimed to make participants clearly understand the pain and consequences of crime.

No matter how many times something is taught in a book, it can't compare to experiencing it firsthand.

Only by seeing and experiencing it yourself can it leave a lasting impression.

Her mother used to tell her during idle moments that, when they were young, they were shown unedited, real footage to understand the dangers of drug crimes.

While it left them with psychological scars, it also made them remember how horrifying those substances were.

Ye Sangsang felt that she was unusually prone to daydreaming today.

Perhaps it was due to the presence of other real people in the game that made her feel uncomfortable, leading to these wandering thoughts.

Recently, she had also been thinking a lot about her mother.

Could it be that her emotions had become richer?

Ye Sangsang had no way of knowing. After chatting with Chen Yu for a while, she stood up to go rest.

The two had been placed close to each other, making it convenient for the police to protect them.

Returning to her room, Ye Sangsang carefully lay down on the bed with the help of her parents.

Jiang Qiuyu brought Ye Sangsang some water, seemingly unable to take her eyes off her daughter, constantly observing her.

Ye Sangsang, adhering to Shen Lingling's character, expressed gratitude for the gesture, then glanced at the military cot prepared nearby.

It seemed they had been staying in the hospital, always by their daughter's side.

Ye Sangsang proactively suggested, "Why don’t we go outside for a while? I’m feeling a bit restless staying in the room."

"I’m not sure if I want to stay inside anymore," she said.

Both parents nodded, though they felt they had enough exercise and wouldn't go for a walk. They helped Ye Sangsang onto a wheelchair and Shen Lingling's father pushed her.

The police didn't object, silently following.

The victims' situation was well-known to them; Ye Sangsang's words indicated that staying in the room too long was making her anxious.

In such cases, to stabilize her mental state, it was okay for her to go outside.

The hospital they were in was the largest in this small city. The weather had turned colder in just a few days, so Ye Sangsang was wrapped in a plush coat as she went outside.

Her facial injuries were still quite severe, though not as shocking as before. Ye Sangsang still wore a mask.

Being by the seaside, even nearing December, it was still about 16-17 degrees. The couple mentioned the temperature drop, but the weather was still mild.

With a rare sunny day, the hospital's ground-floor garden was bustling with people.

Ye Sangsang pointed to a relatively secluded pavilion and asked her parents to push her there.

It wasn’t that she wasn't concerned for her safety, but she was thinking, if the perpetrator dared to show up, it would be perfect...

There were two police officers here.

Unfortunately, the perpetrator was cautious and didn’t have the audacity to commit murder here.

By the pond, with artificial streams and hills, Ye Sangsang sat quietly, gazing ahead.

Shen Jianghe and Jiang Qiuyu sat beside her, occasionally checking on her condition.

A boy, about seven or eight years old, entered through the small bridge, wearing a mask and holding a toy.

Following behind him was a woman in her mid-thirties. Upon seeing Ye Sangsang and the others, she apologized with a slight smile, "Sorry, my child really likes this pavilion."

"This isn’t ours, feel free," Jiang Qiuyu immediately replied.

The two undercover police officers sat behind Ye Sangsang, making room for the child to play.

Dressed in a hat and mask, the boy happily ran over, placing his toy on the vacant spot and humming to himself.

Ye Sangsang watched, her expression calm.

Jiang Qiuyu, however, perhaps bored, struck up a conversation with the woman. "Looks like the little one has a cold. The weather’s been so unpredictable lately, you have to be careful. My daughter’s wearing a fleece, and I still think she’s cold."

Shen Lingling had long hair, and with the mask covering her, the wounds beneath were barely noticeable.

The woman glanced at her and sighed, "Indeed, no matter how old, you're still a child in your parents' eyes." She paused, then continued with a heavy heart, "If only my child just had a regular cold, it would be treatable in a few days. Unfortunately, he has a heart condition, not just a cold."

“Oh… I’m so sorry, I didn’t mean to touch upon a sore subject!” Jiang Qiuyu reacted, realizing her mistake.

The woman waved it off, forcing a wry smile. "It's fine, I don’t mind. It’s just… my poor child, having to go through this at such a young age."

"Medical advancements have improved, a surgery will help," Jiang Qiuyu quickly comforted.

Hearing this, the woman remained silent, evidently not wanting to delve further.

The atmosphere in the pavilion grew stagnant.

After a while, Ye Sangsang said, "Let’s go back, it’s getting a bit chilly."

At her words, Shen Jianghe and Jiang Qiuyu quickly stood up.

Jiang Qiuyu adjusted her daughter’s clothes, while Shen Jianghe bid farewell to the woman and pushed the wheelchair back.

The police also got up quietly, and they all returned to the ward.

Laying in bed, Ye Sangsang wondered about the outcome regarding Jiang Li.

If they really caught her, she wouldn’t have to think about anything else and could focus on the storyline, just waiting for the final execution.

Although it might not be very exciting, as long as the result was satisfying, it would be fine.

...

Jiang Li exited the hospital and got into the car, her brow furrowed.

The golden 48-hour period for solving a case had passed, and they were still at a loss. The four perpetrators had been extremely brutal in their methods. If the victims hadn’t escaped, the couple would have been killed.

The modus operandi was extremely heinous, they had to catch them quickly.

But the perpetrators were too cunning, the net they cast had yielded nothing—they seemed to have vanished from the city.

Ye Sangsang’s words had given her some inspiration, but she wasn’t very confident.

However, since there was a lead, they had to try.

Upon arriving at the police station, she promptly organized personnel to secretly investigate the surrounding areas.

The concept of "blind spots under the light" wasn’t limited to the police station; the area around the hospital was also a potential spot.

The neighborhood near the hospital consisted of old alleys, making the investigation challenging. She arranged for the search around the police station and then took another group back to the hospital.

The local police station near the hospital had also been asked to assist in the search.

These were mostly old, stairwell-accessed residential buildings, some of which were public housing, surrounded by self-built houses.

There was also a large marketplace, and the area near the hospital was thriving with food streets, making the search even more difficult.

Returning empty-handed would mean wasting another four to five hours.

But Jiang Li felt it was worth it. What if they found something?

If they caught the perpetrators, wouldn’t that solve the case?

With this mindset, she began her search.

Starting with door-to-door inquiries, she questioned shop owners to see if they had noticed any suspicious individuals.

Then came the carpet search, asking the owners of these houses if anyone had recently come to live there, etc.

They searched area by area, knocking on the doors of every room that wasn't abandoned.

Eight police officers were cooperating, and it took them a full hour to cover only a third of the area.

To their disappointment, there wasn't a single clue.

Jiang Li hid her disappointment, continuing to ask questions, because often solving cases relies on door-to-door investigations.

There was a previous case where the police visited and investigated over tens of thousands of people before they finally found a lead.

Their current search involving several thousand people was nothing – they hadn't even reached a tenth of that.

After mentally preparing herself, she set off with her colleagues to the next area.

From the restaurant and eatery street near the hospital at one end to the other, they asked every house in between, including all the alleyways.

Looking at the last store at the end of the street, she took a deep breath and walked in.

Based on the facial features provided by Ye Sangsang and the information they had gathered, the police had already identified their targets with photos.

She skillfully pulled out the photos and approached the boss, who was resting nearby, and asked softly, "Excuse me, have you seen any of these people?"

The boss was a burly man in a sleeveless shirt. After wiping his face, he looked at her police badge and then at the photos she held.

Noticing a familiar feature, he reached out to take the photos and began to examine them carefully.

Jiang Li's heart leaped, and she held her breath, remaining silent to allow him to focus on identification.

After a while, the shop owner suddenly exclaimed in realization, "Yes, I've seen them!"

"When? Where? Do you know where they live?" Jiang Li's eyes lit up, and she quickly asked.

The shop owner scratched his head, "I don't know exactly where they live, but they came to my place for a meal. Although it was a few days ago, I still remember them."

"Can you roughly point out where they live or the direction they went?" Jiang Li spoke with some urgency.

Knowing that the police had important work to do, the shop owner stood up and led them outside, pointing to a long alley next to the shop, "They went into this alley at the time. I don’t have a hobby of following people, so I’m not sure exactly where they live."

"Alright, thank you for your cooperation," Jiang Li quickly said before leading two colleagues into the alley.

However, once inside, she was stunned.

Because once you entered, there was still a long way to go.

Preliminary estimates suggested there were over a thousand households here.

She took out her phone, contacted the station, and decided to request more officers to arrive quickly, as they couldn't let the suspects escape!

The station quickly agreed; thankfully, the search near the Public Security Bureau (police station) was almost complete, and once finished, they would head over.

Jiang Li began searching upstairs with her colleagues.

They had to stick together; otherwise, if they encountered the suspects, it might be anyone's guess who would catch whom.

On the concrete path of the alley, they carefully checked each suspicious house.

To Jiang Li's surprise, there was someone living nearby the police station who had rented a room. Although that person had left early, according to the landlord's identification, it was Zhao Hong of the suspect group.

To have suspects at both locations, Jiang Li thought of Ye Sangsang's "darkness under the lamp" theory and couldn't help but admire her observational skills.

In such a situation, she had not only escaped but also managed to learn about the suspects' personalities and habits.

They continued searching, and soon, a landlord's action caught Jiang Li's attention.

Under the landlord's guidance, Jiang Li led five colleagues, armed, straight to the third floor as directed.

Upon arrival, she carefully opened the slightly ajar door with her foot and rushed in with her team.

Staring at the empty room, Jiang Li frowned and clenched her teeth.

Qiu Fu was too cunning; he must have known they were coming and escaped beforehand.

Ye Sangsang was resting and waiting for news when Jiang Li, covered in dust, arrived.

"When you got there, they had already escaped?"

Before Jiang Li could speak, Ye Sangsang had already guessed the outcome.

She nodded, her eyes full of admiration as she looked at Ye Sangsang, "You even guessed the result just by seeing me."

Ye Sangsang remained silent; the failure to catch them was within expectations.

Looking at the painful wound on her arm, she began to think about whether it would alert the suspects, causing them to flee.

If they ran, it would be much harder to find them.

"He has a heart problem, not just a common cold," Ye Sangsang said, speaking to Jiang Li, but her mind suddenly recalled the woman's words under the pavilion.@@novelbin@@

Her eyes flashed with contemplation, then widened as her lips slightly parted, realizing the crucial information that connected everything!

The three-day wait wasn't for their marital harmony but for someone else's arrival!

The jealousy over their marital love might just be a pretext to cover their true intentions!
