Chapter 8: Death (7)
When Zhou Ji came to the room of Wang Tai's cultivation in the Municipal Spiritual Sanatorium, it was already afternoon. Looking into the room through the surveillance window on the iron door, a middle-aged woman was sitting on a snow-white bed and looking out the window, the harsh sunlight shining on her tired face, but the poor woman remained motionless as if she did not feel anything. It's no wonder that before he could experience the extravagant life after getting rich for a long time, his husband died due to some strange events that were difficult to explain, and no one could bear it.
The nurse next to me took out the key from her pocket and said nervously, "That... Sir, no, no, sir, do you really want to go in? This patient is very emotionally unstable... She hurt a lot of our staff on the day she first came, although she seemed to be quiet but..."
"yes, I see." Zhou Ji said, motioning for the nurse to open the door quickly. As soon as he stepped into the house with his front feet, there was a sound from behind, and Zhou Ji shook his head helplessly. It seems that this group of nurses is really scared.
Zhou Ji walked up to Mrs. Wang, dragged the chair next to him and sat down, staring at her face in silence.
The woman in front of her is about 35 years old, and her figure is average but not bloated. Although he was a little tired and wrinkled, he still had a beautiful face, which did not look like a good match for the deceased Wang Desheng. Because as far as Zhou Ji knows, Wang Desheng was a scavenger before winning the lottery, and he was 49 years old, how could he marry such a woman? Even if this person's conditions are poor and he has no choice, he won't marry a little old man at the bottom of society, right?
A few minutes, or dozens of minutes later, Zhou Ji only felt that his eyes were sour, and he couldn't see more information from Mrs. Wang's face. Just when he was about to give up, Li Xiaoyue suddenly spoke:
"I know what you're here for. But I'm not going to tell you anything. ”
Really! She's not crazy at all!
Zhou Ji became excited, "Mrs. Wang, you're not crazy, why are you pretending to be crazy?" ”
The woman's body trembled, and she suddenly screamed: "Don't call me Mrs. Wang!" My name is Li Xiaoyue! Li Xiaoyue! ”
"Okay, okay, Li Xiaoyue." Zhou Ji was taken aback, and hurriedly comforted, "You are obviously fine, why do you pretend to be crazy and live here?" Your husband is dead, and more than a billion family assets are yours, what are you afraid of, why would you rather live in such a building full of crazy people than go out to enjoy this inheritance? ”
Li Xiaoyue smiled miserably. "Get out? Is money better than freedom? I'd rather live here until I die. She sighed deeply. Young man, don't ask too much, I won't tell. Even if I die, I won't say it unless 30 years have passed..."After saying this, she seemed to realize that she had lost her words, and immediately closed her lips and said no more.
"30 years later? What is the meaning? Did someone give you a gag order? Who is it? Is it the one who threatens you to kill your husband? How did he die? Why did you flee the scene before he died? Did those people deliberately let you go, or did you already know that Wang Desheng would die but didn't remind him? Zhou Ji didn't intend to let her go, and threw out one question after another step by step. But Li Xiaoyue seemed to be iron-hearted, and she refused to confide in half a word.
"Ugh." Zhou Ji sighed helplessly, and his calm words carried a loud threat: "Your husband is dead, you are afraid, I understand." But you are still the number one suspect, and you are afraid of losing your freedom, I can send you to prison quietly, because life in prison is much more terrible than here. Men's prisons, of course. You must know how much of a storm the lottery incident between your husband and wife has caused in the country. Needless to say, my identity as someone who came to investigate, so please cooperate well, if you can cooperate to solve the case, we can guarantee that you will be absolutely safe for the rest of your life. Li Xiaoyue, understand? ”
Li Xiaoyue's body trembled obviously, but she still shook her head without hesitation and said, "You don't understand, you don't understand." No one can protect me, you send me to prison, I can't say anything, I can't say anything, if I do, I will end up like Wang Desheng..."
Zhou Ji couldn't help it. There are many things he can't do, he just doesn't want to do. He couldn't be as cold-blooded as Wang Yao and Yue Zhi, and he would do anything to get information. So he changed the set of questions:
"Since you won't say anything about the case, let's talk about something else, you have to stay here enough time to make a difference to the top, what do you think?"
Li Xiaoyue's eyebrows moved, and she didn't seem to refuse Zhou Ji's proposal. Zhou Ji saw all this in his eyes, was happy in his heart, and seized the opportunity to speak:
"How long have you been married to Wang Desheng? Happiness? ”
“... I'll marry him, maybe three or four months. Talking about happiness or unhappiness, that old ghost is just a rag picker, a mouthful of rotten teeth and a mouth full of dirty words, annoying to look at him, every time he comes to me, I have to close my eyes and cover my nose to make him crawl. Li Xiaoyue said indifferently: "It's okay to be dead." I've had enough of him a long time ago, if he wasn't rich, I wouldn't have married, I was also the number one brand of the Drunken Fragrance Pavilion before..."Suddenly, she stopped. Zhou Ji knew that she might almost miss her mouth again, so she silently remembered the name of Zuixiang Pavilion in her heart, and did not continue to investigate on this topic, but continued to ask:
"You married Wang Desheng three or four months ago, but I remember that he didn't seem to win the lottery at that time, right? Did you already know that he was going to become a rich man, or... All this wealth you brought to him? ”
Li Xiaoyue was stunned for a moment, only then did she realize that there were loopholes in every sentence she said, so she gritted her teeth and argued, "I.... I.... I didn't know he was going to win! ... No, it's not, he won the lottery and came to me to marry him, no, I am.... I do not know! I don't know anything! Since she couldn't tell the truth, she simply didn't tell the truth.
"Hmm." Zhou Ji nodded, he also roughly guessed something, "Because you have been to the Black Book Company together, you already knew that he would definitely get rich, right?" ”
As soon as she heard the four words of the Black Book Company, Li Xiaoyue was like five thunderbolts, and she jumped up from the bed suddenly: "How would you know!" ... No! Wrong! I didn't say anything! Then, as if he was afraid of something, he suddenly raised his head and shouted into the empty room, "I didn't say that! I didn't say anything! Not really! Isn't it!! Then he flipped the round table in front of him, turned around, and slammed his head against the wall.
Zhou Ji was stunned by Li Xiaoyue's sudden madness, he watched in a daze as the woman in front of him who was calmly talking to him just now was pressed to the ground by the medical staff who rushed in, her head was covered with blood and she was still screaming, as if she didn't know what pain was.
At this time, a fat nurse walked over quickly and said to Zhou Ji unhappily: "Sir! Whatever your status, we're sorry to ask you to leave, and if you stay here to stimulate the patient, I'm afraid she'll kill herself! ”
Then Zhou Ji was ruthlessly kicked out of the door of the nursing home.
