"Mrs. Yao, almost everything you should have asked, if you think of anything unusual, just call me, this is my business card." Detective Nikolai took out a business card from his coat pocket and handed it to Yao Jingjing, got up and was about to leave.

"Wait a minute." Yao Jingjing also stood up and stopped Detective Nikolai.

"What else?"

"Well, Mr. Officer, I would like to ask, with your observation and experience, how did Sergei die?"

"According to our preliminary judgment, Mr. Sergei seems to have committed suicide, but the final result will not be concluded until the forensic examination."

Yao Jingjing hurriedly shook her head and said, "No, it's impossible, he won't commit suicide." ”

Seeing Yao Jingjing's expression was firm and her tone was categorical, Detective Nikolai said suspiciously: "How are you so sure?" ”

"Sergei is a very optimistic person, with a strong heart, he has worked hard in the business world all these years, he has never seen any storms and waves, he cannot commit suicide, I absolutely do not believe it. He must have been killed, I don't know who he offended, but I'm sure he didn't commit suicide. ”

Yao Jingjing's firmness moved Detective Nikolai, and he responded: "Okay, I know, we will investigate clearly." ”

After Detective Nikolai left, Yao Jingjing sat on the sofa, her mind was chaotic at the moment, she firmly believed that Sergei was killed, who would kill Sergei? Why? Kill Sergey, will you come and kill her again? Yao Jingjing suddenly felt a wave of fear rise in her heart, and she couldn't help but clasp her arms with both hands. What is she going to do at this time? Where does she go from here?

It is said that Detective Nikolai questioned the main persons in charge of the manor, and after the investigation and evidence collection, he transported Sergei's body back to the police station, and he had to question Sergei's three children one by one.

That morning, Detective Nikolai came to Sophia's office, and Sophia knew what she meant.

"Ms. Sophia, do you know that Mr. Sergei has passed away?"

Sophia nodded and sighed, "I know, I saw it on the news." ”

"I'm here for a routine question, you don't have to be nervous."

"Okay."

"How do you feel about your father?"

"Normally, I moved out of the estate when I went to college, and since my mother died, my relationship with my father has been relatively weak."

"I heard your mother died?"

"Yes, my mother suffered from mental illness later in her life and later died."

"How's your relationship with your stepmother?"

"It's not a relationship, and I haven't met a few times in total."

Detective Nikolai nodded and asked, "How is your relationship with your younger siblings?" ”

"Our three siblings had a good relationship when we were young, but when we grew up, we went our separate ways, and our relationship faded. But I have a little bit more to do with my brother. ”

"What about your sister?"

"My sister and I don't usually interact much. We are people from two different worlds, I run my father's oil company, and she runs the casino that my father left behind, and we have different people to work with, and we don't have much to talk about together. ”

"Does Mr. Sergei have any enemies in business?"

"That's for sure. But I can't remember it for a while. I can put together a list for you. ”

"Okay."

"Mr. Officer, do you think my father was killed?"

"No, the jury is still out on whether it will be suicide or murder. Ms. Sophia, do you think your father committed suicide or was killed? ”

Sophia thought about it, and the money of unknown origin came to her mind, could her father's death be related to that money?

"How do I know this, I don't think it's very likely to be killed. Who will kill him, he has been retired for a long time, and if it is really related to business, if he wants to kill me, he will kill me. I am now the head of the company. Sophia deliberately concealed the money, she couldn't tell the police and the cross-section, after all, she didn't know where the money came from, once the money came from the wrong way, it would have a great impact on the company, her personally, and the entire family.

Sophia's concealment did not escape the eyes of Detective Nikolai, who had seen that Sophia was hiding something, but he couldn't ask now.

Detective Nikolai stood up, took out one of his business cards and handed it to Sophia, saying, "This is my business card, call me once you organize the list." ”

"Okay."

Sending away Detective Nikolai, Sophia's face was gloomy, and a trace of doubt flashed in her eyes, she didn't believe that her father would commit suicide, impossible, this is not her father's character, her father must have been killed, as for why he was killed, it is very likely to be related to that fund. Before his death, her father also warned her not to ask about the funds, which might be too involved, and her father didn't tell her to protect her. The best way to deal with it now is for the police to close the case with the father's suicide, which is good for the company, the father's personal reputation, and even the whole family.

A few days later, according to the results of the forensic examination, the police closed the case with Sergei committing suicide, and although Detective Nikolai had doubts about this, his superiors instructed him to close the case by suicide, and he had to do so.

When Yao Jingjing heard that the police closed the case with Sergei's suicide, she felt incredible, and she didn't believe that Sergei would commit suicide when she was killed, but the police said so, what could she do! Think about it, Sergei is a rich man in Russia, if Sergei is killed, then the person who killed Sergei must have a great background, either rich or expensive, how can the police investigate? There are also scruples.

Today is the day of Sergei's funeral, the whole family is dressed in black, the funeral is organized by Sophia, there are many business celebrities, Yao Jingjing is like a marionette, constantly shaking hands with people, accepting mourning. When the coffin was buried, Yao Jingjing stared at the coffin and slowly fell, a sense of unreality enveloped her whole body, although Sergei had been dead for a few days, but she still felt unreal, how could a good person be so gone? Gone so suddenly! Sometimes she wished it was a prank.

After the funeral, the guests dispersed and the family returned to the estate, where Sergei's will was read out by a lawyer, who read it thoughtfully in Russian and English. It turned out that a month before Sergey's death, he found a lawyer to change the will. Yao Jingjing, as Sergei's spouse, received more than 1.7 billion rubles, which is equivalent to about 200 million yuan. The eldest daughter, Sophia, got the company and part of the property and funds, the second daughter Anna got the casino and the estate, and the younger son Andrew got the property and most of the funds.

In fact, compared with the three children, Yao Jingjing obtained the least assets, but for her, this is already a huge amount, she didn't expect Sergei to leave her a part of the inheritance, before the lawyer read out the will, Yao Jingjing was ready to leave the house. She thought that she would get nothing, but she did not expect that Sergei had planned everything long before he died.

After sending the lawyer away, Anna looked at Yao Jingjing coldly and sneered: "Now that this manor belongs to me, you Chinese woman should get out." ”

Yao Jingjing looked at Anna calmly and replied, "You don't have to worry, I won't stay here and leave, you give me a few days, I have to pack my luggage." ”

"Hmph, you'd better move faster."

In fact, Yao Jingjing cares most about the luxury goods in this manor, but the little memories with Sergei, which are the most unforgettable for her.

Yao Jingjing had already booked a ticket to return to China, and at this moment she was sorting out her suitcase, and she didn't want to take away all the luxuries in the cloakroom, at this time, a photo frame at the head of the bed caught Yao Jingjing's attention. She picked up the photo frame and looked at it, it was a group photo of her and Sergei at the Eiffel Tower when she and Sergei visited France that year, and it was taken with a selfie stick.

"This is the Eiffel Tower in Paris?" At this moment, a familiar female voice sounded in the room.

Yao Jingjing turned her head and glanced at Ivanova, who was sitting on the sofa not far away, and said: "Yes, that year was the first year I married to Russia, Sergei said to take me on a tour of Europe, and asked me where I wanted to go the most, I said it was France, and I especially wanted to see the Eiffel Tower." I still remember that I took a lot of photos at that time, but they were all taken with selfie sticks, and there were no full-body photos, so I asked Sergey to help me take a few full-body photos, but who would have thought that his photography skills were so poor, and he took so many pictures that I was so angry at the time. Recalling the beautiful scenes of the past and telling the interesting stories of the time, the corners of Yao Jingjing's eyes gradually moistened.

"And I remember that year at the Eiffel Tower, I also ran into my ex-boyfriend and his current wife, not to mention how embarrassed I was, and I was ridiculed by his wife, I didn't dare to fight back, because I didn't have the confidence! After Sergei was very funny, he saw that I was wronged, very angry, so he found someone to teach the couple a lesson, I was very surprised to know this at the time, but I was also very happy, what a cute old baby. ”

The more he talked, the more excited he became, and the tears in the corners of his eyes couldn't stop flowing. Seeing this, Evanova hurriedly stepped forward and hugged Yao Jingjing, Yao Jingjing lay on Ivanova's shoulder and cried loudly.

"Sister, you say, why did he leave? I really can't believe it, I don't believe that he committed suicide, I don't believe it, how can someone like him commit suicide? He won't. A while ago, he took me to climb the mountain and watch the fireworks, why did he turn his head and die? He also asked me if I would like to marry him if I had an afterlife, and of course I would like to marry him in the next life, and I would like to be his wife. ”

Ivanova understood Yao Jingjing's sadness, she hugged Yao Jingjing tightly, listening to Yao Jingjing's crying, she felt the same way.

Two days later, Yao Jingjing left the villa with her luggage in tow and was escorted to the airport by bodyguards. Along the way, Yao Jingjing was silent, staring out the window with a blank gaze, and her mind was blank. Married to Russia for five years, it is like a lifetime, these five years are long and short, and a lot of things have happened during this period, and it seems that nothing has happened, like a dream. Now, she has woken up from her dream, and it is time for her to return to China.

It stands to reason that it is only an hour's drive from the manor to the airport, but two hours have passed, and I still haven't arrived at the airport. Yao Jingjing realized that something was wrong, so she said to the bodyguard in the co-pilot position: "Why haven't you arrived at the airport yet?" ”

The bodyguard glanced at Yao Jingjing in the rearview mirror and did not reply.

Yao Jingjing suddenly felt bad, and said with a little horror: "You are not going to the airport, where are you going to take me?" ”

The bodyguard still didn't reply. The panic in Yao Jingjing's heart is even worse, now that Sergei is gone, she has no protective umbrella, does she want to be slaughtered?

"Where are you taking me? You speak! Yao Jingjing yelled.

Seeing that the bodyguard still ignored herself, Yao Jingjing was shocked, she stepped forward and grabbed the driver's collar and shook it vigorously.

"Stop, stop, I'm getting off!" Yao Jingjing was terrified at this time and roared angrily, she didn't know where she was going to be taken, and a bad premonition couldn't help but come to her heart.

The driver was frightened by Yao Jingjing's sudden move, and the hand holding the steering wheel couldn't help but move, and the car swayed from side to side.

Seeing this, the bodyguard in the co-pilot position flashed a trace of anger in his eyes, and he instantly took out a pistol from his waist and aimed it at Yao Jingjing.

When the muzzle of the gun was against the door of the head, Yao Jingjing was dumbfounded, and suddenly her whole body froze, and she forgot to react for a while.

"Ma'am, you'd better be honest and watch out for the gun."

The bodyguard spoke Russian, and although he couldn't understand the meaning, he could guess a few points. Yao Jingjing didn't dare to move, her eyes widened, and a tear flowed down the corner of her eye.

Seeing that Yao Jingjing was separated, the bodyguard also instantly withdrew the gun.

After a few seconds, Yao Jingjing slowly came back to her senses, panting secretly, her heart was very sad, she knew that she might encounter accidents later, looking at this posture, she was afraid that she would not be able to return to China.

The car drove for about two hours before finally stopping in front of a warehouse in the suburbs. Yao Jingjing, whose legs were already weak, was dragged out of the car by bodyguards and taken into the warehouse. I saw the bodyguard rudely push Yao Jingjing to the ground with a thud, and Yao Jingjing gasped in pain.

Yao Jingjing looked around, only to find that this warehouse was full of rusty steel, and it seemed that it was an abandoned warehouse.

"What are you bringing me here for? What do you want? ”

"You'll find out later." The bodyguard spoke a word of English, then turned away, closing the door to the warehouse.

What happened? Why was she brought here? Who instructed the bodyguards to do it? Yao Jingjing's mind was full of question marks, she squatted on the ground, her hands tightly clasped her arms, her heart was full of fear, she didn't know what would happen later, would it be her death day next year, right?

After about an hour, the door to the warehouse creaked open, and through the light, a bloated woman with curly hair walked in. Yao Jingjing slowly stood up and took a closer look, the person who came was none other than Anna.

"Anna? It's you. The moment she recognized Anna, Yao Jingjing's heart sank suddenly, and she knew that she was in a catastrophe today.

Anna stood one meter in front of Yao Jingjing, wrapped her arms around her chest, and snorted coldly: "Isn't it me!" ”

"Why did you kidnap me? I was supposed to fly back to China today, which is not what you have been looking forward to! ”

"Hmph, I did always hope that you would get out of Russia, but I left alone."

Alone? Yao Jingjing frowned suspiciously, as if she didn't understand what Anna meant.

"You don't have a good memory, I still remember that year you and my dad had a wedding, and I warned you at the wedding that if one day you dared to fight the idea of my father's inheritance, I would not let you go."

And so it was! Under Anna's reminder, Yao Jingjing remembered what happened when she first met Anna that day.

"Because of this, you kidnapped me?" For Yao Jingjing, she never thought that she would get Sergei's inheritance one day, and she would be given a share of the inheritance, which was already a windfall, even if she lost it again, it was better than losing her life. Anna could have negotiated with her in a more gentle way, and there was no need to make such a big move.

"That's right. Ever since I first saw you, a Chinese woman, I hated you, for no reason. My dad actually slapped me for you and took back my casino management. And now you've got my dad's inheritance. What qualifications do you have? ”

"Whether you are qualified or not, it is also your father's decision、、、、、、"

Without waiting for Yao Jingjing to finish speaking, Anna took two steps forward and raised her hand to slap Yao Jingjing fiercely.

"Now it's up to me!"

Yao Jingjing frowned painfully, covered her slightly hot cheeks with her hands, stared at Anna with a fierce face, and asked, "Anna, tell me, what do you want to do?" If you want my share of the inheritance back, I promise you, I will give it to you, I don't want it. ”

Anna sneered: "Originally, I only planned to get your inheritance back, but now I have changed my mind. Staring at Yao Jingjing's disgusting cheeks, a glimmer of light flashed in Anna's eyes, and the corners of her lips rose slightly.

"What do you want to do?" Yao Jingjing suddenly felt bad, this Anna is crazy, and she can't do anything out of the ordinary.

"Yao Jingjing, my father passed away, he was very lonely over there, why don't you go and accompany him."

Yao Jingjing was stunned, her eyes couldn't help but widen a little, and her voice trembled slightly: "You, you want to kill me?" ”

"This is Russia, the land is vast and sparsely populated, it can't be easier to kill someone, just find a place for you to bury it, and no one will find out for decades."

What Anna said is true, Russia is a vast and sparsely populated country, and I don't know how many nameless corpses are buried underground. Yao Jingjing panicked instantly, her hands and feet were cold, and a sense of fear filled her whole body in an instant, but she would not beg Anna for mercy, not for stealing her life, for living, just like a person who has always despised herself.

Anna glanced at the bodyguard not far behind her, and the bodyguard understood it, stepped forward quickly, took out a pistol, aimed the muzzle of the gun at Yao Jingjing's forehead, and put the pistol in the hall.

Is she really going to die? Dead in a foreign land? Can't go back to China and see your parents? When she was dying, Yao Jingjing only thought of her parents, and tears oozed from the corners of her eyes.

Just as the bodyguard was about to pull the trigger, a buzzing car roar came from the ground, interrupting the thoughts of several people, Anna and the bodyguard turned their heads to look at the door of the warehouse, and they caught a glimpse of two black cars coming to a sudden stop, and seven men in black suits stepped out of the car, and the young man in the lead was none other than Sergei's former assistant - Ivan. I saw Ivan and the others take out pistols from their waists and aim them at Anna and the bodyguards.

Anna was startled and exclaimed, "Ivan, why are you here?" ”

When Ivan approached, he pointed his gun at Anna and replied, "The boss told me before he died, and he said that I should protect my wife's safety until I send my wife home." ”

Seeing this, the bodyguard who originally used the gun against Yao Jingjing's head couldn't help but panic and put down the gun.

Anna sneered in disappointment: "My dad is dead, and you are still listening to him?" ”

"I was my boss's assistant, and this was the last assignment my boss gave me. Before the boss died, he expected that once he died, you would not let his wife go, and it was true. ”

It turned out that Sergei was still thinking about her when he died, Yao Jingjing couldn't help but feel warm in her heart, and her eyes gradually moistened.

"My dad is dead and still thinking about this woman!" Anna glared at Yao Jingjing viciously, gritting her teeth.

"Miss Anna, with me here today, I won't let you touch Madame in the slightest. Let's go. ”

Anna knew that she would not succeed today, so she exhaled a little deflated, glared at Yao Jingjing fiercely, and then turned around and strode away, followed by the bodyguard.

Seeing Anna leaving, Ivan and the others took back their guns, Ivan turned to look at Yao Jingjing, and said, "Madam, how are you?" Did they hurt you? ”

Yao Jingjing, who was in shock, was still a little afraid in her heart at this time, all this happened too fast, she thought she was going to die soon, and she was ready to die, but she didn't expect the situation to take a turn for the worse, and she could be regarded as escaping death.

"Madam, I have already booked you a ticket back to China tomorrow, and I will personally escort you to the airport tomorrow."

"Uh, thank you. Ivan, it was Sergey who asked you to protect me? ”

"Yes. The boss explained to me before his death that he must send his wife back to China safely. Just now, my wife's car didn't drive in the direction of the airport, and I had a hunch that it was wrong, and I kept following behind. ”

"Thank you, Ivan. Well, though, I don't want to go back to the manor tonight. ”

"Okay, I'll book you a room at a hotel near the airport."

Yao Jingjing nodded in agreement.

The next day, under the protection of Ivan, Yao Jingjing safely boarded the plane to Beijing, sat by the window, looking out the window at Moscow gradually moving away, she had mixed feelings in her heart, married to Russia for five years, everything returned to the original point, and she was no longer the person she was five years ago.
