Chapter 53: Death by suicide

After Murong Lian finished talking to Cao Pu, she ignored him, turned around and walked into one of the three bedrooms, closed the door, and sat on the chair next to the bed to wait.

He waited for Cao Pu to come in.

Murong Lian knew that her husband had tried his best to build the building she was living in now, but it was no stronger than the collapsed building in the community.

She has lived with her husband for a long time, and she knows her husband's temper too well - he never follows the rules, especially in construction, and when he can't save it, he has to find a way to save.

As long as he can find an opportunistic way, Cao Pu will not abide by the set of standards in the building.

All he cared about was the amount of money he had in the bank, and nothing else.

Will Cao Pu finally admit it? Will he confess his sins?

Murong Lian thought for a while, but she didn't see her husband come into the house to see her, so she got up from her chair, walked to the balcony, and then looked at the scenery outside by the railing.

Beneath the fifteen-story elevator building is a red asphalt path. This trail connects the neighborhood to East Lake. The light reflected from the window glass in the opposite building made her particularly glaring.

At this time, the lake is twinkling with a little starlight.

The building she was in was facing the lake in front.

Murong Lian looked ahead to the left, and she saw a bedroom at the end of the corridor separated by a balcony. The sliding door in the bedroom was open, and the light shone faintly on the black partition.

She thought that her husband's approach was clearly wrong, because he was suffering from his inner torment on the one hand, and on the other hand he did not admit the fact of his crime.

Therefore, in Murong Lian's view, it is necessary to make him admit the crimes that he should admit and confess what he should confess......

However, her husband neither confessed nor confessed, so how could he get rid of his distorted criminal mentality and forget all the facts of his crimes?

For example, he felt the sound of footsteps and talking coming from the room on the higher floor...... Those that never existed and were ethereal—

But it will continue to reach his ears - which in itself is a hallucination or delusion of his.

Could it be that he has been holding on for so long and that when will it be an end? Besides, sooner or later, the government investigation department will come to the door, so can you only be saved by losing yourself?

Suddenly, Murong Lian really heard a heart-rending scream from a bedroom, which was obviously Cao Pu's cry of pain.

Murong Lian immediately ran towards the bedroom.

She saw that the bedroom door was locked, and she couldn't open it no matter how she screamed, so she had to slam it open.

When she slammed the door open, she saw exactly what was happening.

She saw Cao Pu screaming and smashing through the window glass like a drunken bear......

She also saw Cao Pu covered in blood, and he slammed outside until he burst out of the balcony and floated in the air.

She saw Cao Pu slowly sinking, his arms waving wildly in the air.

Perhaps it was a hint of desire to survive that made him obviously regret it, and he was looking for a lean or grip before falling to the ground, and he was able to quickly cling to it.

However, where will it be in the air, and it will be too late to regret it...... He had no choice but to quickly fall down until he disappeared from Murong Lian's field of vision.

Cao Pu kept falling down, after a distance of fifteen stories, until the red asphalt path caught Cao Pu. The head hit the ground first, and there was blood stained from it.

He committed suicide......

Subsequently, Murong Lian called 110 to call the police.

She said to the four police officers who arrived in less than ten minutes to investigate:

"My husband, he kept saying he could hear footsteps and talking. I don't know if he heard it, but the tone he spoke to me and the way he behaved was like he heard something. ”

An older policeman was a tall man, maybe a leading team leader or something. Holding his bearded chin, he took a closer look or search of the room.

Cao Pu said ...... Voices and footsteps...... Where? He looked at Murong Lian with a puzzled look and asked in a cold tone.

He said in the room on the upper floor. I can hear it every day, and it is even louder at night, and I am haunted by these sounds every day...... I think he's depressed......"

Murong Lian said as she pointed up to the ceiling.

The tall policeman looked at the ceiling in confusion: "I just went to look, and there is a garden on the roof, there is no room!" ”

"Of course there is, but not this building...... There is also a building with sixteen floors. ”

"What?"

"But the sixteen-story building collapsed three years ago...... That building is one more floor than this one. You police officers have also come to investigate this......"

"Hmm...... Yes...... But how is it associated with the sound of footsteps and talking? ”

"Because when the building collapsed, there were six people working on the top floor, and they all died. But...... You didn't look into this......"

……

When Wei Chisheng learned the news of Cao Pu's death, he was already the deputy director of a bureau in the main urban area of W City, of course, he didn't learn about it from Murong Lian, but from the Internet.

He had been in contact with Murong Lian for a long time...... Maybe he has already forgotten Murong Lian, which shows that he is an ungrateful person.

With the financial support of Murong Lian, after Wei Chisheng got his undergraduate diploma from the business school, he passed five hurdles and six generals and was admitted to the civil service.

With his ability and, of course, his handsomeness...... He fell in love with Ouyang Shan, the daughter of a leader in City D. With the help of Ouyang's father, Wei Chisheng successfully became the deputy director.

Although the deputy director is only a deputy section level, his department is an oil and water unit...... Therefore, when he was the deputy director, he paid off all the money owed to Murong Lian.

Although the money is paid off, the emotional debt remains.

From the first day he was appointed deputy director, Wei Chisheng established his majesty. His expressionless face, his stern and almost fierce eyes, all made his subordinates dare not make a mistake.

Five or six days after coming to the bureau, he treated people in a thoughtful and measured manner, and his skillful business and work ability dispelled the idea of his colleagues laughing at him at will.

Every employee in the unit respects Wei Chisheng without exception.

When Wei Chi Sheng gained a firm foothold in the unit, he sometimes remembered his original benefactor, Murong Lian. But just thinking about it and not doing anything else to show his gratitude, he didn't dare to mention it.

He was worried about being discovered by his girlfriend Ouyang Shan's father.

It was when Wei Chisheng was intoxicated with this admired vanity that her girlfriend Ouyang Shan called him and told him to hurry home.
