Even if you belong to a demonic sect, you still have to bring glory to the country.

Chapter 196 Amon Discovers a Dead Person

It's nothing serious.

Li Ping was having a great time abroad.

Who knew that a phone call with my grandmother would lead to conversations about the past?

Li Sui then realized that Li Ping's reluctance to return to the Li family back then was not so simple.

She was already suffering enough after her divorce, but when she returned to the Li family, she was still met with accusations from her parents.

And her eldest sister, Li Yan, told her very coldly.

She insisted on getting married, and now she's making a huge fuss about getting a divorce.

They became children of the Li family, yet they were unwilling to bear the fate that the Li family should bear.

"What have I done to deserve this? Your scumbag father comes from a well-off family and has benefited the Li family, haven't he? And yet you still talk about me like that. If you were in my shoes, could you have tolerated it?"

Li Sui, of course, sided with Li Ping and immediately echoed her words: "That is definitely unacceptable."

Li Ping: "I felt like the sky had fallen. Wen Haotian was the one who cheated first, so how did it become my fault? I wanted a divorce, but he wouldn't allow it. Since that's the case, I might as well leave."

Li Sui: "Then you now..."

"Now I've figured it out. So what if I was born into the Li family? I'll just enjoy myself and not work. Go ahead and kill me if you dare!"

Li Sui: “…”

Sure enough, now that Li Ping has spent more time in the Moon Community, she has become more open-minded.

After venting her anger, Li Ping felt much better. Over the years, she had harbored resentment in her heart.

They always need to find a way to vent.

But to others, it seemed like she was the one who was being immature.

She has let down Li Sui and the Li family.

But why doesn't anyone think of her?

Fortunately, raising my daughter was not in vain.

After hanging up the phone, Li Sui saw a message on her phone from her cousin, whose cartoon avatar she had just seen.

[Jing: Hello, cousin, I'm your cousin Li Xijing.]

My aunt, Li Yan, also has a son and a daughter, but this is the first time I've met this cousin.

Li Sui's focus is different from others.

[Li Sui: Oh, cousin, your surname is also Li.]

[Jing: Yes, my dad married into the family.]

[Li Sui: ...Huh?]

Nobody mentioned this to her.

And why did my cousin just blurt it out so casually?

Considering that my aunt is now in charge of the Li family's affairs, it's not surprising that she has a husband who married into the family.

My cousin said it so casually.

Li Sui also greeted him politely.

[Li Sui: I understand, cousin.]

[Jing: Haha, I'm going back to China soon, how about we meet up for a meal then?]

[Li Sui: I'm fine with anything, I'm free anytime I'm not working]

[Jing: Are you not working yet? Does your family's company have a position you could try out for?]

[Li Sui: No, cousin, I don't like going to work, and I already have a job here.]

Nobody likes going to work.

She wouldn't like it even if she had more money now.

Her life lacked ambition.

[Jing: Okay]

She had a very good impression of Li Xijing.

He's much better than Li Chengjia's troublesome cousin.

After this incident, Li Sui enjoyed a period of peace and tranquility for a while.

It's just that the weather is getting colder and colder.

It's so cold that even when Li Sui wakes up early in the morning, she doesn't want to get out of bed.

They don't have underfloor heating installed here, and she doesn't like using air conditioning in winter, mainly because she finds it stuffy.

Every morning when I wake up, getting out of bed requires only strong willpower.

Even now, she still admires Mu Lihua and the others next door.

Waking up at six every morning—this is just too cruel. Li Sui thought about how she would have to go to work if Li Ping didn't return to the Li family. Just thinking about this miserable life made her feel miserable.

However, even on this freezing cold day, Li Sui finally received some unsettling news.

Amon is in jail.

It wasn't that she caused trouble, but rather that she witnessed it.

When Mu Lihua spoke to Li Sui, she said there wasn't much of a problem.

But Li Sui needs to go to the police station to pick up Amon.

When Li Sui arrived, she learned that the matter was related to the rental house where her friend Yang Xifei lived.

Li Sui, wearing a down jacket, rubbed her hands together and breathed on them to warm them. When she arrived at the police station, A Meng was already standing there.

A girl who was a little taller than her was standing next to her, wearing a pink fluffy hat.

They even got Amon a matching plush hat.

She looks more like a porcelain doll now.

Amon saw Li Sui and immediately waved enthusiastically, "Sui, sister!"

Yang Xifei saw Li Sui and greeted her somewhat nervously, "Hello, sister."

She also knew that Amon had a relative here.

Li Sui nodded, "Hello, hello."

He asked, panting, "What's going on?"

Yang Xifei answered on behalf of Amon, her face showing a hint of panic and lingering fear: "Amon said someone upstairs died. We called the police, and when they arrived, they found a body in the apartment. It was the landlord, who was murdered yesterday. None of us were home, and no one heard anything. Apparently, the suspect is his tenant, but the police haven't caught him yet."

Li Sui was genuinely surprised: "How did you find out?"

Amon turned his face away: "What's there to miss? I smelled it as soon as I got there. And there were a lot of bugs, but they didn't come near me much, which means there's something better upstairs."

For those insects, a human corpse is certainly a better thing.

It's cold now, so the corpses aren't decomposing as quickly, and the smell hasn't started yet.

Amon smelled a very strong stench of blood.

Moreover, she had seen countless corpses, and even killed some herself.

She knew this smell all too well and told Yang Xifei that someone upstairs must have died.

Yang Xifei was so frightened that she called the police.

The discovery of the body by Amon was not a big deal, but what shocked Li Sui was that a murder would occur in the place where Yang Xifei lived.

Because these kinds of things seem very distant to ordinary people, but once they happen, they find they are very close.

"The murderer hasn't been caught yet?"

Li Sui hesitated for a moment: "Will the murderer come back?"

Generally speaking, some murderers will return to the crime scene.

It was Yang Xifei who reported this to the police.

Yang Xifei also realized what was happening. Although she was still a little scared, she said, "The police will be here for the next few days."

Amon's eyes darted around: "Then I'll stay at her house for the next few days."

Before Li Sui could speak, a policewoman came out of the police station.

The policewoman looked capable and efficient. When she saw Li Sui and A Meng talking, she sized up Li Sui, then smiled and came up to her: "Are you Li Meng's parent?"

Li Sui looked up and saw that the policewoman's attitude was still warm: "Yes, I am Li Meng's sister."

The policewoman's eyes lit up slightly: "Your sister has a very keen sense of smell."

When Yang Xifei called the police, they asked how she discovered it, and Yang Xifei said that Amon smelled it.

It's not surprising to smell blood, but it's unusual to be certain there's a corpse upstairs.

Moreover, Amon remained calm and composed when he saw the corpse, showing no sign of panic in the face of death.

She's only twelve years old!

Yang Xifei, who called the police, was so frightened that she stuttered and kept trembling.

The experienced policewoman concluded that Amon was no ordinary person.

Naturally, I became somewhat curious about her family background.

Li Sui suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.

"Yes, yes, yes, people have always said she has a keen sense of smell, like a dog's nose."

Amon immediately curled his lip: "It's not a dog's nose, I can smell it anyway! And there's more than one dead person in that house—"

Li Sui: “…”

Why the hell didn't you say it all at once?!

I got back too late today because I had some errands to run. I'm still short 4K here, but I'll definitely make up for it tomorrow.
