Super Soldier

Chapter 129 Conflict

Liu Piaopiao suddenly pointed to Lil Bei and looked at Jiang Wanting. She said, “Officer, this man pretended to be a doctor just now and attacked me. You have to help me catch him.”

Jiang Wanting frowned and said, “Don’t worry, I will judge for myself. If he really hurt you, I will arrest him.”

Xiao Bing smiled. He knew that Jiang Wanting was doing him a favour. To put it bluntly, she was fond of him. Based on her usual character, she would step forward and arrest Lil Bei immediately.

Looking at Liu Piaopiao, Xiao Bing asked slowly, “Piaopiao, I want to ask you. How did Uncle Ye fall ill?”

Liu Piaopiao looked at Ye Tianming. Seeing Ye Tianming’s calm expression, Liu Piaopiao calmed down a little and said, “It was because he was frightened.”

“Oh.” Xiao Bing nodded. He continued asking, “I heard that he saw a ghost. Furthermore, you were the first person who saw the ghost. Is it so?”

“Yes.”

“How did the ghost look like?”

“In orange clothing. Messy hair…”

Xiao Bing looked at Jiang Wanting and asked, “Officer, do you believe in the supernatural?”

Jiang Wanting said seriously, “I only believe in law and science.”

“Oh, that’s great. I also believe that the law does not believe in the supernatural. This means that the ghost you saw wasn’t real. Am I right?”

Liu Piaopiao snorted and said, “How do I know?”

Xiao Bing smiled and said, “If someone was playing a trick, I am very curious. Uncle Lei is Uncle Ye’s strongest master. Nothing can hide from him. Why were you the first to see the ghost, instead of Uncle Lei? Unless… you are talking nonsense…”

Liu Piaopiao sneered and answered, “Bancheng also saw the ghost. Hence, he was badly frightened. Do you think I’m talking nonsense?”

Xiao Bing laughed and said, “It can be proven easily. This means that someone dressed up as a ghost.”

Jiang Wanting, who was standing at a side nodded while listening. She said, “This is possible.”

Liu Piaopiao sneered and said, “Even if someone dressed up as a ghost, it has nothing to do with me. I was also frightened.”

Xiao Bing smiled and asked, “OK then. I want to continue asking. How many exits were there in the hall where you saw the ghost?”

Liu Piaopiao’s facial expression changed slightly. Xiao Bing laughed and said, “It is hard to say, right? After the incident, I asked Uncle Lei privately and got Lil Bei, the person beside me to investigate the place. There is only one exit and the direction of the ghost that you saw at that time was behind the Buddha statue. So where did the ghost go? If it ran away through that exit, it couldn’t hide from Uncle Lei. Even a person with poor eyesight would detect it. If it didn’t run away through that exit, this meant that there was a secret passage in the hall at that time.”

Jiang Wanting’s eyes lit up and nodded. She said, “That’s right. It makes a lot of sense.”

Xiao Bing continued smiling and said, “However, I have gotten Lil Bei to send people over to investigate and have also communicated with the people in the temple. There is no secret passage in the hall for people to hide in. Hence, I’m surprised. Where was the person who pretended to be a ghost, since it couldn’t hide and wasn’t detected by Uncle Lei? No one would believe that there was a real ghost.”

Liu Piaopiao appeared flustered. Jiang Wanting was observing. She felt that there was something fishy about this woman. Xiao Bing was indeed capable.

Xiao Bing continued, “Well… if someone was really playing a trick, it will deliberately appear in front of you and cause you to scream. Well, let’s say it exited the hall with the crowd. Then, I would like to ask. If it hides among the crowd, won’t the others be scared? Only scares you? If it didn’t leave the hall and there was no secret passage in the hall, could it vanish into thin air?”

Liu Piaopiao swallowed her saliva and began to tense up. She hesitated for a long time and finally said hesitantly, “Maybe, maybe I was wrong.”

Xiao Bing laughed heartily and said, “If you see wrongly, it would be quite interesting. You see wrongly. When you left the temple, there was really a female ghost with orange hair, who appeared in front of Uncle Ye. Was Uncle Ye hallucinating? Was Uncle Lei hallucinating?”

Liu Piaopiao became speechless. Her forehead started to sweat and she closed her mouth.

Xiao Bing added, “Ye Xinyi went to the hospital and visited Uncle Ye before she died. As a result, Uncle Ye was poisoned and nearly died. Although Ye Xinyi said that she was ambitious, I did not believe that she would kill her father. Of course, there is a possibility. I am not sure. However, if Ye Xinyi is the one, I think she will leave behind some clues. Officer Jiang, you can send someone to the ward to bring back the poisoned medicine for inspection. Also, please carry out an autopsy on Uncle Ye’s body. Perhaps we can find out the dosage of the poison and how long the poison has been deposited in the medicine…”

“If Ye Xinyi drugged the medicine at the last time, there was no way for the poison to completely dissolve immediately. There would be a lot of residues left in it. On the contrary, if the poison had already dissolved in the medicine, this meant that someone wanted to poison Uncle Ye and had drugged the medicine in advance. We can find the loophole.”

Liu Piaopiao’s legs became weak. She collapsed onto the chair. She looked pale.

Ye Tianming frowned and was about to speak. Xiao Bing suddenly laughed and said, “Tianming, you shouldn’t speak at this time, otherwise it will make others think that you are trying to help your stepmother get rid of suspicion. You are worried that someone will expose you. Oh, by the way, don’t you always hate your stepmother?”

Ye Tianming said coldly, “Whether I hate her or not, she is part of Ye Family after all. As long as she bears Ye Family’s name and marries my father, she is Ye Family’s woman. Xiao Bing, you haven’t married my sister yet… Ever since Xiaoxi knew you, so many things have happened in the family. Although I dare not and can’t blame you, I think I will have to reconsider your relationship with Xiaoxi…”

Xiao Bing sighed and said, “Tianming, you can change your attitude. Uncle Ye has just passed away and you have become the head of the family.”

“What!” Ye Tianming shouted surprisingly. His facial expression changed. He then sighed involuntarily. “Father… is dead?”

“Shortly after our departure, he passed away. Maybe you didn’t think of it, but he had been tortured into this state. He is lying in bed half paralyzed and his children are fighting over his fortune. I think Ye Xinyi’s death is his last straw. Death may be a form of relief.”

“Liberation… yes… haha… liberation.” Ye Tianming slouched as he mumbled incessantly. He was in a daze.

Liu Piaopiao lay prone on the table and began to cry. She really loved Ye Tianming. However, after getting along with Ye Bancheng for a long time, she could feel Ye Bancheng’s sincerity towards her. In the end, she was gradually forced into this current state.

Xiao Bing looked at her and suddenly snapped, “Why did you kill Ye Bancheng?”

Liu Piaopiao stood up like a spring and shouted, “I didn’t kill him. I just put a small amount of poison in the medicine…”

After that, she suddenly realized that Xiao Bing was staring at her sharply. His gaze was like needles. Ye Tianming looked at Liu Piaopiao in shock. Xiao Bing was taking advantage of the opportunity to break Liu Piaopiao’s final psychological barrier. Ye Tianming was shocked that Liu Piaopiao confessed even though the other party had no evidence.

By the time when Liu Piaopiao reacted, it was too late. All her strength had been drained. She suddenly burst out laughing. While laughing, she shouted, “Yes, I killed him. I killed him. Arrest me… I am a venomous woman. Ye Bancheng was very good to me, but I killed him in the end. Shoot me. Take revenge for Ye Bancheng!”

Xiao Bing stared at her and asked coldly, “Who ordered you to do this? Who hired people to pretend to be a ghost at the temple? Who ordered you to poison?”

“No one, no one ordered me.” Liu Piaopiao laughed. “Just shoot me. I did all of these myself.”

Ye Tianming’s facial expression changed. He suddenly sighed in grief and said, “Aunt Liu, my father has been so kind to you. How can you treat the old man like this? You are really disappointing.”

Liu Piaopiao was still laughing. She wiped her tears while laughing. Everyone could feel her grief in her laughter.

Xiao Bing looked at Ye Tianming and asked, “Tianming, I always thought that you were a good man or at the very least a gentleman. As a gentleman, how could let your beloved woman bear all the blame? Shouldn’t you support her?”

Ye Tianming appeared gloomy and said coldly, “Xiao Bing, I don’t know what you are talking about.”

Jiang Wanting shouted, “Men, arrest Liu Piaopiao. Take her to the interrogation room and interrogate her. Young Master Ye, I think you should also stay for some questioning.”

Ye Tianming sneered and said, “I don’t accept it! From now on, I will send a private lawyer to talk with you regarding everything about me. Also, don’t try to arrest me or make me cooperate with you until there is sufficient evidence. ”

“Regardless of your guesses, I need evidence!”

Jiang Wanting said, “As a citizen, you are obliged to cooperate with the police.”

The uncertainty in Ye Tianming’s eyes had disappeared. At this moment, he showed a certain sense of pride, which he had never shown before. His pride was similar to that of a noble prince, who was looking down at his subjects. Perhaps he had hidden this other side of him for a long time and no one knew about it. He looked at Jiang Wanting and Xiao Bing. He said proudly, “I am a citizen, but don’t forget who I am. I am the next chairman of the Ye Group in Jiang City! Two days later, at the board meeting, I will officially become the chairman of the Ye Group. At that time, even the political leaders of Jiang City will not talk like you in front of me!”

“Xiao Bing, I admit that you are very capable. Your ability is far beyond my expectations. Unfortunately, you don’t have any evidence. Hence, you haven’t!”

Both of them stared at each other so fiercely that sparks could be seen flying around.
