The case?

Bai Muchuan took her arm. His tone was half-joking, half-serious with a tinge of dissatisfaction.

“And here I thought you must have missed me so much that you came here! I’m disappointed!”

Xiang Wan glanced at him.

“You’re so good at acting!”

While she was eating and talking at the same time, her voice sounded muffled.

“Well, I do miss you! Otherwise, I need not come over here personally. I can simply call you to say what I wanted to say, right?”

That was a perfect explanation!

She gained another kiss as a result.

Bai Muchuan leaned in close near her neck as he spoke into her ear. “I miss you too.”

For a couple, no matter how mushy the words they spoke, they would not get enough of it!

Especially when they were still in the lovey-dovey stage of their relationship—they wished they could stick to each other the whole day.

Xiang Wan stopped eating for a moment before turning her head slowly to him and gave him a warm kiss.

“Sir Little Bai is getting more adorable! Your flirting techniques are maxed out… Come, one more kiss!”

Well, that was a kiss with a mouth full of waffle!

The corners of Bai Muchuan’s lips lifted upwards; his wolf-like glint seemed to have activated.

When Xiang Wan noticed that, she believed that if… there was a bed there and, of course, with no one else around, he would probably…

“Hey, talk to me!”

Xiang Wan tugged him a little and seemed to have thought of something. “No wonder!” Her gaze was mischievous but gentle.

Bai Muchuan raised an eyebrow. “What do you mean by that?”

Xiang Wan blinked at him. “Instead of bringing me to your office, you brought me here sneakily… Don’t you deny that you wanted some private time together?”

“Hur!” Bai Muchuan knocked her forehead with the knuckles of his finger. “Are you moved?”

Xiang Wan looked like she was full of gratitude and grinned whimsically. “If you can order me another waffle, I will definitely be moved!”

He looked at the empty plate in front of her, then looked at the few desserts which they had ignored. Nonetheless, his eyes were full of gentleness.

“Yes, my Queen!”

The ‘Queen’ patted her tummy twice before she leaned on his shoulder and talked about why she was here.

“Something struck me today, and I want to discuss it with you.”

“Say it!” Bai Muchuan’s voice arrived at her ears, bringing along the smell of a cigarette.

Xiang Wan wrinkled her nose and guessed that he must have smoked quite a lot because of the frustrations he had with the case. She leaned over and gave him a kiss.

“How much time do you have for me?”

Bai Muchuan pinched her face. “All my time in the future belongs to you.”

Xiang Wan scoffed. “…”

“I mean now. How long can you listen to me?”

Bai Muchuan looked at his wristwatch. “About an hour.”

“Do you have anything to do in the afternoon? I saw Ye Lun leaving the Criminal Investigation Unit earlier.”

“Mm.” Bai Muchuan recounted what happened. “We got the appraisal report of the voice recording.”

They did a comparison with the voice recording they brought back from Nanmu against Meng Chi’s voice.

Cheng Zheng had a contact, who was an expert in this area he got to know when he was studying overseas. Because of technological constraints, he sent the voice recording to this expert who was staying abroad for an appraisal instead.

“How is it?” Xiang Wan’s eyes lit up and were shining with anticipation.

“The level of similarity is over 95 percent,” said Bai Muchuan.

“Only 95 percent?” Xiang Wan furrowed her eyebrows. “So that means it’s not Meng Chi after all?”

“You can’t say that! There’s diversity in a person’s voice. It could change on different occasions, even at different times…”

Xiang Wan then raised both her eyebrows. “That means the possibility of the voice being Meng Chi is still high, right?”

Bai Muchuan said, “We still need more evidence! We consider Meng Chi half a public figure. It is not difficult to collect his voice and make a voice recording with the current level of technology.”

“Hmm…”

Xiang Wan put down the cup she was holding. Her eyes dimmed a little.

“Prior to coming here, I had a thought. Do you think Meng Chi is suffering from split personality?”

Back in the villa at Vulture’s Mouth, Meng Chi’s emotions felt abnormal to Xiang Wan.

“But while I was waiting for you in the lobby, I threw out this possibility.”

She looked at Bai Muchuan.

Bai Muchuan’s gaze was serious. “Continue.”

“When Lima and Abdul died in the car crash, Meng Chi was being held in the Criminal Investigation Unit, right?”

“Yes!”

“That means he didn’t have the time to commit the crime!”

Bai Muchuan responded with an intrigued look on his face. “Well, that does not mean that we should free him from suspicion. Don’t forget that there’s a possibility that he could have accomplices.”

He paused for a moment and hugged Xiang Wan’s waist. “The actual doubtful point lies on the person whom you and Yu Bo had seen… The one that really looked like Meng Chi. When you met him at Wen Xin Nunnery, Meng Chi and Yu Ning were chilling in a leisure center in Nanmu. From what we have gathered so far, there’s no problem with it.”

That’s really strange!

Xiang Wan gave it a thought. “I have an idea.”

“What is it?”

“The voice recording we stumbled upon in Lima’s room, do you still remember it?”

Bai Muchuan’s gaze dimmed slightly as he kept silent.

Xiang Wan said, “Perhaps the disaster mentioned in the recording is the real key to all these questions…”

“Mm?” Bai Muchuan hummed a snort.

Xiang Wan glanced at him then took a piece of dessert.

“Have you ever thought about it? Why does this case always revolve around us? I was wondering about this earlier. Is it because we… are also related to the disaster that year? If this is a deliberate plan for revenge, are we also on the list of people he wanted to enact his vengeance on?”

Bai Muchuan’s slightly tired face seemed gloomy.

His was patting her head, but he did not reply.

Xiang Wan thought her words had struck a chord in him.

“Do you still remember when Old Mr. Xu abducted me?”

Bai Muchuan nodded.

Xiang Wan recalled that incident. “That night, Old Mr. Xu told me a lot of things about his daughter. Those incidents when she was young, her relationship with Zhao Jiahang, and the terrible accident she got into after she got married shortly… I suddenly thought about them and had a doubt. All the people in these cases, could they have been related to that disaster in Jin City, don’t you think so?”

Bai Muchuan remained silent.

For a long time, he did not utter a word.

Xiang Wan had been observing him.

She was looking at the changes in his expression.

It also prompted her to feel that the hand holding her waist was tightening.

After mulling over it for a while, Xiang Wan seemed to have decided. She leaned on Bai Muchuan’s shoulder and looked up at him seriously.

“Bai Muchuan, can you tell me what’s your relation to that case mentioned in the voice recording?”
