Chapter 248
She glanced at the table, where the fierce adults were reluctantly searching for pens.0
The atmosphere was eerie.0
"Alright, I choose Zhang Ruoshui!" Qin Yue quickly made her decision.0
Qin Yue herself pushed her wheelchair to follow Xiao Ya and asked, "Can you see how she died?"0
Xiao Ya was a bit puzzled and replied, "Yes, you can."0
Qin Yue pursed her lips: "I mean, the state of her death... would it be very gruesome?"0
Qin Yue didn\'t know much about Ke Muning, but from Edith and others\' reactions, Ke Muning\'s methods were far from merciful, even cruel...0
If that woman was tortured to death...0
The discomfort of being forced to watch the "performance" surged back up in Qin Yue.0
Xiao Ya, on the side, showed a look of realization and sincerely suggested, "Then just look more, and you won\'t be afraid."0
How is that comforting?0
Unless... unless Zhang Ruoshui was educated like this since childhood. Qin Yue suddenly realized this and couldn\'t help but glance at Xiao Ya.0
"There are steps," a subordinate reminded from the side.0
Qin Yue looked down.0
The long staircase led to the basement, where Gui Wenxin should be held.0
Wait a minute...0
Qin Yue gripped the armrests of her wheelchair.0
But Xiao Ya had already bent down and, with practiced ease, lifted her up.0
"Actually, I can manage myself..." Qin Yue couldn\'t help but say, glancing at the stair railings as she spoke.0
Xiao Ya straightforwardly told her, "If you fall again, you\'ll have to get your left leg in a cast too."0
She thought for a moment and added, "Or maybe a full body cast."0
Qin Yue: "……"0
Not a single gentle word.0
But, okay, quite convincing. Qin Yue bit her lip and continued to numb herself, treating herself like a puppet.0
Upon reaching the basement, the guards at the door immediately stepped forward.0
"Miss."0
"Young Miss!"0
The bodyguards and subordinates called out in their own ways.0
Xiao Ya waved her hand, and they all made way for her.0
Inside the room, Gui Wenxin\'s death was not gruesome but very clean. If not for the foam at the corner of her mouth and the slightly cyanotic complexion, she looked as if she were asleep.0
"It was suicide," Ke Muning\'s subordinate explained.0
Wei Wenjuan\'s bodyguard also chimed in, "Professional method."0
"Professional method?" Xiao Ya curiously looked at the bodyguard.0
Teaching their young miss, the bodyguard didn\'t hold back and immediately pried open Gui Wenxin\'s mouth: "She had dental veneers."0
Xiao Ya thought of a TV show she had seen: "Hid poison?"0
The bodyguard nodded: "Yes, using pufferfish toxin."0
Ke Muning\'s subordinate seized the opportunity to say, "She wasn\'t an ordinary fraud; she should be involved in some shady profession, and it seems..."0
Xiao Ya continued, "Very professional."0
Suicide upon exposure.0
No wonder, even when the truth was almost right in front of her, Gui Wenxin could still remain calm and unflustered.0
"She had no tattoos, no extra features. These are the items found on her." A subordinate presented a tray respectfully to Xiao Ya.0
Xiao Ya picked up the phone.0
The subordinate said, "It\'s locked."0
Xiao Ya grabbed Gui Wenxin\'s limp hand and pressed it on the screen.0
Unlock successful.0
The subordinate: "……"0
Technology really changes life.0
Xiao Ya first checked the contacts.0
Not a single saved number, just like her own habit.0
Even the call history was empty, not even a single spam message left.0
The bodyguard peeked at her expression and said, "Usually, such people\'s phones won\'t contain any information. It\'s better to hand it over to professional technicians to locate if there are any disguised apps."0
Xiao Ya didn\'t feel discouraged and continued to flip through.0
There was a... failed message record—0
『Save me, this is the coordinates』0
"Found it," Xiao Ya handed the phone out, "Note down this number."0
"Yes, Miss!" Ke Muning\'s subordinate reached out to take it first.0
Gui\'s bodyguard frowned at the sight.0
Xiao Ya sighed for the umpteenth time. Why do you all have to compete over this?0
At this moment, the bodyguard spoke up: "Young Miss, give us a direction to investigate."0
Xiao Ya thought for a moment: "Um... do foreign countries also have area codes?"0
The bodyguard replied, "Yes, they do."0
"Then don\'t call this number yet; first, locate it based on the area code."0
"Got it."0
With such orderly arrangements, Xiao Ya couldn\'t help but glance back at Gui Wenxin\'s body.0
This person\'s ideas were vicious, but she was also very smart.0
Suicide upon hopeless rescue.0
"Let\'s go," Xiao Ya said, squeezing her own arm.0
Qin Yue asked, "What\'s wrong?"0
"Carrying you upstairs will be a bit tiring."0
Qin Yue\'s mouth twitched: "Let your family\'s bodyguards carry me up instead."0
Gui\'s bodyguard quickly pointed out, "There\'s an elevator here."0
Qin Yue: "……"0
Xiao Ya: "……"0
They finally returned to the first floor by elevator.0
"Are you still afraid now?" Xiao Ya suddenly asked casually.0
Qin Yue was taken aback and shook her head.0
Xiao Ya\'s actions and speech already had the flavor of an adult.0
She said slowly, "No matter how powerful someone is, they will die. Don\'t be afraid of them."0
Qin Yue mumbled, "Mm-hmm."0
It dawned on her that Zhang Ruoshui had taken her to see how Gui Wenxin died to dispel the shadows in her heart.0
They returned to the hall.0
Qin Yue watched as Xiao Ya checked on the adults\' progress with their assignments... How to put it? She was already a bit numb from the shock.0
"We\'ve arrived," a crew member cautiously came in to report.0
This made the three adults, who had been looking troubled, heave a sigh of relief.0
Xiao Ya followed Qin Yue off the boat.0
Qin Yue asked, "Aren\'t they coming too?"0
Xiao Ya shook her head: "They\'re in different businesses; it\'s better not to meet Qin Sui."0
Qin Yue stared at Xiao Ya. Zhang Ruoshui was clearly younger than her, yet she was so cautious in everything.0
"Is that Qin Sui\'s car?" Xiao Ya asked.0
Qin Yue looked over: "Seems like it?"0
She pushed her wheelchair herself, feeling all burdens lifted, the wheels replacing her legs and moving swiftly, all the way to Qin Sui.0
Qin Yue\'s well-being was written all over her face.0
Qin Sui could tell at a glance that she was fine.0
At this moment, Qin Haoming also got out of the car behind.0
Qin Yue\'s expression faltered: "Dad..."0
Qin Haoming took a deep breath and bowed deeply to Xiao Ya: "Thank you, you\'ve worked hard."0
Xiao Ya took a half step back, not knowing what to say, only softly said, "Family, no need to be polite."0
Qin Haoming immediately thought of the relationship with Zhang Lao, unable to help but chuckle, "Yes, yes..."0
But in his heart, he had a higher evaluation of this little girl.0
Smart, resourceful, and modest.0
Qin Haoming then lifted his daughter from the wheelchair, half angry, half relieved: "You almost scared us to death!"0
Xiao Ya couldn\'t help but say, "Don\'t blame her like that."0
Qin Haoming was taken aback: "It\'s not blame, it\'s... just..." The worry that had been pent up finally found an outlet.0
"But it sounds like it. Why didn\'t she want to tell you? Could it be because of this?"0
Qin Haoming had nothing to say.0
Qin Yue felt a bit ashamed: "Zhang Ruoshui, stop it..."0
Xiao Ya looked at her earnestly: "Adults are adults, but sometimes they\'re not, they can also make mistakes. You should speak out directly."0
Qin Yue suddenly thought of her action of distributing papers, which indeed didn\'t treat adults as adults.0
This... can be learned?0
Qin Yue turned to look at her father.0
Qin Haoming: ?0
Aliali: 6754af46bd5e46c308a44aeeWhy did he feel a chill down his spine?0
"Bye, I\'m leaving first," Xiao Ya looked at her phone.0
Uncle and the others are getting impatient.0
Qin Sui walked beside her and asked softly, "How should I thank you, Xiao Ya?"0
"If you really want to thank me..." Xiao Ya fished out the messed-up papers from her bag, "Help me correct the answers."0
"……" Just that?0
Qin Sui held the papers in his hand, watching Xiao Ya walk away. He thought, she had grown up very well.0
"Qin Sui, let\'s go, take your sister for a check-up first. Xiao Ya is busy too, let\'s have dinner together tomorrow." Qin Haoming called from the side.0
"Mm-hmm," Qin Sui responded, opening the papers and looking at them, almost wanting to throw them away.0
……What kind of scribbles are these?0
