16. Shocking truth
Finally took off his high heels, and Song Yiqiao breathed a sigh of relief. She tied up her loose hair, changed into dark light clothes, and took a taxi alone to a residential area.
The city is a bit bleak under the clouds, which is in stark contrast to the lively neighborhoods.
Song Yiqiao's nerves tensed, and he cautiously slipped in, and touched into a strange villa according to his original goal. She glanced at the layout, deftly past the door, climbed up to the second floor with the help of the window edge and drain, and surveyed the inside in the dim light.
According to the photos Galen posted on Facebook before, his bedroom is here.
She held her breath a little nervously, and fine beads of sweat oozed from her forehead. Although the bonuses of strength and agility made her much more powerful than usual, and she could even climb to the second floor without difficulty, her body was still a little unable to keep up.
It seems that you can't just rely on the points of the system to strengthen your body, and if necessary, you should learn to exercise your body and fighting ability, such as kickboxing.
Song Yiqiao gently opened the window and jumped into the room.
The house was quiet, and the owner should have rested, but fortunately the door was closed, so she could safely turn on the small flashlight she carried with her and look around for useful information.
- That's right, Song Yiqiao came to Galen's house.
The murder scene must have been inspected by those policemen from the inside to the outside, and all the things that should have been kept as evidence have long been taken away, and according to her level, there should be no clues. Besides, if one is accidentally discovered, it will be over if she is implicated.
Besides, Song Yiqiao had a strange premonition that maybe Madame Stephen was hiding some important truth.
The huge villa was inhabited only by Galen and Lady Stephen, and a few servants, and was almost deserted. The things in the room didn't seem to have been touched, they all stayed in their original positions, and she opened the drawers and rummaged through the materials in an attempt to dig up something.
She had carefully rummaged through the table and all the contents of the drawers, but unfortunately she had found nothing. She continued to search without giving up, until she reached the closet, and suddenly, she found a square cardboard box hidden inside, which seemed to be used to store clothes.
Song Yiqiao's heart moved, and her inexplicable premonition made her open it by surprise, and she was surprised to find that it was actually a woman's underwear inside.
Is it the victim's?
β¦β¦ No, no, such a conservative style and color is not like the average young woman can wear. I have searched for it before, Daniel is a celebrity, open and bold, and has been among many young talents, and only after getting married has he restrained a little.
This is the real reason why Galen insists that he has an affair with Lady Daniel, but no one doubts it.
Song Yiqiao frowned, looking at what was different about this underwear. At this moment, the stairs suddenly sounded footsteps, and there was a tendency to approach here, she was startled, and quickly hid in the closet.
ββ¦β¦ I think I just heard something? β
"Recently, there have been a lot of stray cats running in, so get it out, or Madame will be angry again."
"Is it in this house?"
Song Yiqiao's palms were sweaty, she squeezed the flashlight tightly and looked out from the gap vigilantly.
Two middle-aged women with drooping eyelids entered the door listlessly, glancing around.
"Probably not here, let's go to the kitchen and look for it."
Before she could breathe a sigh of relief, another woman suddenly pointed in the direction of the closet and said with a look of surprise, "This isβ"
She was startled, and she arched her back like a cat, and assumed an attacking stance, staring at each other like needles in the dark.
The woman's figure was getting closer and closer, almost half a meter away from Song Yiqiao, she stopped, squatted down and picked up something: "What is this?" β
"I think...... Isn't this the underwear that Madame lost the other day? So it's here! β
"How did Madame's underwear get here?"
"Probably a wildcat came in."
The two did not suspect it, and the sound of the conversation gradually became quieter and disappeared into the corridor.
Song Yiqiao, who was hiding in the closet, had a stiff face, and couldn't speak-
Galen he!
β¦β¦
After receiving the lawyer's letter written by Alicia, Song Yiqiao successfully entered the interview room. It was the first time she had seen Galen, and it was true, as Mrs. Stephen had said, that despite the fact that he had been tormented by a few days in prison and looked a little tired, his handsome face and proper movements still made Song Yiqiao have a good impression of him at first.
"Excuse me, are youβ"
He was a little confused, and his gentle blue eyes were sparkling, like a pool of clear lake water.
How did such a mild-mannered man kill a couple?
Song Yiqiao looked at him and said slowly, "I'm a friend of Lady Stephen. β
ββ¦β¦β
Galen was stunned for a moment when he heard the familiar name, and his expression was like crying and laughing: "Don't bother anymore, the murderer is me, and I swear in the name of God that there is no hidden secret." β
ββ¦β¦ All right. β
She asked in a low voice, "Mr. Galen, I would like to talk about something else this time." I heard Mrs. Stephen say that you are a learned man, and I think it is a pity that you have a long life to live, and you should not be left like this. β
"The world is impermanent, and these things are not something I can control."
"In that case, I won't say more." Song Yi pretended to be casual, "By the way, have you ever read a book called "Son and Lover"? I think it's ridiculous, there are all kinds of people, like Kafka, or Freud......"
Galen's pupils dilated suddenly, revealing an expression of fear and disgust, and he looked at her in a daze: "I don't like their writings. β
His voice was a little hoarse, as if it came out of his throat, and it took a lot of effort to say each word.
"I know, and I don't like it either." Song Yiqiao replied meaningfully.
ββ¦β¦β
ββ¦β¦β
"Does she know?" Galen lowered his head in frustration, "No, she must know, otherwise why would she let you come here......"
"She doesn't know."
Song Yiqiao leaned close to the glass and calmed down through the phone: "Can you tell me what happened on the day of the incident?" β
Galen hesitated for a while, but still spoke: "It was I who killed the Daniel couple, I saw that the two of them were intimate, and I was very unhappy in my heart, and after I endured it again and again, I still couldn't help it...... I picked up the fruit knife and rushed inside, first stabbing Daniel in the back, hitting him right in the heart, and he screamed and fell out of bed, and immediately lost his breath. Shaira ...... It was Mrs. Daniel, who was so frightened that she tried to get away, and that pitiful look made me feel very distressed, but seeing her evasive attitude, I thought of the scene of their intimacy...... IβI'll kill her......"
He took a deep breath, raised his head, stared at Song Yiqiao and said, "What happened later is what you know, and there is no way to hide it. β
At this moment, Galen's lips moved quickly a few times, and although there was no sound, Song Yiqiao immediately understood what he meant.
- Mr. and Mrs. Daniel also knew.
