Eyes that are the same as those of evil

Chapter 236 Confess to Me 9
Yuan Hanyue was taken directly to the police station after she ran away.

The police officer who arrested her reported to Zheng Yan: "She resisted fiercely, saying that she was just going out to buy things and why she was being arrested. She even shouted that she would complain about us and sue us. In short, she refused to be brought to the police station. She was yelling and shouting all the way, and was very agitated. But after arriving at the police station, she calmed down and seemed to have resigned herself to her fate."

Tan Jia looked through the glass window into the interrogation room. Yuan Hanyue looked anxious, fidgeted, and pursed her lips tightly.

It seems to be the same personality it had two hours ago.

Zheng Yan pushed open the door and entered. Faced with Yuan Hanyue's wariness, he first sighed.

"Why are you running away? Isn't that just admitting guilt? When we came to visit, we didn't explicitly say anyone had died or that we suspected you of being the murderer. You're running away because you know very well what illegal and criminal things you've done, right?"

“I don’t know what you’re talking about,” Yuan Hanyue said expressionlessly, sticking to the same story she had told the police earlier. “I just went out to buy something. You arrested me as a criminal. That’s a violation of the law.”

"What do you want to buy? Where do you want to buy it?"

"Let's buy some food at the big supermarket near my house."

"You're heading in the right direction, but why did you change your clothes and hairstyle, put on sunglasses, and look around before getting on the bus?"

"It's hot in the summer, is it a problem for me to change my clothes frequently? What do you mean by looking around? I was just thinking about which supermarket to go to."

"Oh, so when you told us you had something to do, you meant you were going out to buy food secretly after we left?"

Yuan Hanyue actually nodded.

Zheng Yan chuckled, losing patience with her feigning ignorance any longer, and asked directly, "You stayed up all night playing a horror game, and were out all day today, only getting home in the evening. Aren't you tired? Or is something keeping you from calming down? Your car had all the necessary documents in it. Were you really just going to buy food and not trying to escape?"

She stopped talking.

Zheng Yan's interrogation had only just begun.

"You should know very well why we're watching you. In the unfinished building, in the room you went to, there were treated bloodstains on the floor. Was Zhou Wen'an dead?"

Yuan Hanyue, as if seizing upon a loophole in the question, quickly replied, "Whether he lives or dies is none of my business. I did have an argument with him because he was flirting with that slut Zhao Shasha right in front of me. I was very angry, so we had a fight. But apart from the argument, nothing else happened. We played until the script ended, and then he came to coax me, and then we left together. Others can testify to this; you can ask them if you don't believe me."

So confident that her accomplices wouldn't betray her?
Zheng Yan changed the subject and asked, "You two had a fight, but seemed to have made up after the game. Now you're saying it's none of your business whether he lives or dies. What, is your relationship so unpredictable?"

Yuan Hanyue sneered, followed by a minute or two of silence, before saying, "Zhou Wen'an is a liar. We've been in a relationship for many years, breaking up and getting back together on and off. He always has a knack for making people angry, but he can always win them back with sweet words. When he's happy, he'll give you money and be romantic, but when he's unhappy, he'll act like I don't exist."

"I was an idiot too. I couldn't let go. I said I would break up with him completely and leave him once or twice, but I forgave him again and again and went back to sleeping with him. Being with someone like him was the worst decision I ever made."

Zheng Yan guessed: "So when you saw him hugging and kissing another woman in front of you again, you couldn't stand it anymore, so you killed him?"

"I didn't say that. But I'd really like to know why you think Zhou Wen'an is dead? Even if there were traces of his blood on the ground of the unfinished building, it doesn't mean he's dead, right? In a murder mystery game, he runs fast, so it's normal for him to get injured and bleed. Besides, he was perfectly fine when he left the unfinished building."

"Because he disappeared." "That's it? It's normal for Zhou Wen'an to disappear for a day or two, or even a week or two. He's a hedonist. Last summer, he even stayed at a temple for half a month and didn't contact anyone. I couldn't find my boyfriend no matter what, and I was so anxious that I thought he had crashed his car and died. Ha, he might as well have crashed his car and died."

"But he disappeared after he left with you, and he only argued with you before he disappeared."

"So you suspect I killed him? That's ridiculous. With so many people around, how could I kill someone?"

"We'd like to know too. You didn't go home all day after leaving the unfinished building this morning. Where did you go?"

"Something's up. And I'm not allowed to stay home if I have something to do? If not coming home is considered murder, then half the world's population..."

"No need for all that useless talk. Tell us where you went, the time and place, and we'll investigate. If you are truly innocent, we can also find out the truth and clear your name."

She was silent for a while, then turned her head towards the wall, lowered her eyes and said, "I went to Zhou Qi's house."

Zhou Qi was one of the people who appeared in the murder mystery game's surveillance footage, and she was also the first name she wrote down.

"His surname is Zhou, he's Zhou Wen'an's..."

"Cousin."

What are you going to do there?

“What can a man and a woman do? Zhou Wen’an can indulge in debauchery, and I can find other women too. My cousin is even more interesting. I just wanted to see how Zhou Wen’an would react after he found out about this. But after doing it, I felt it was pointless.”

"Is that all? When you returned to Moon Bay, you looked very anxious, looking around as if you were afraid that someone was following you and seeing you."

She looked impatient: "Didn't I already say? After doing it, I felt it was pointless. In the end, I'm the one who suffers the most. So I don't want people to ask me where I came from, especially people who know me and Zhou Wen'an. They always talk sarcastically about which woman Zhou Wen'an is out with and ask me if I know anything about it."

Tan Jia listened outside as she explained herself with increasing ease, talking about feelings, the past, and her own pitiful aspects, but refusing to admit that she was involved in Zhou Wen'an's death.

Strangely, she actually followed Zheng Yan's question and assumed that the police were not sure whether Zhou Wen'an was dead, but were only investigating a suspected murder case based on the bloodstains in the unfinished building.

But she clearly left the body at the bar. The fact that the police were able to find her so quickly means they had already discovered the body. Didn't she realize that?

Or is it that the actions of different personalities are unknown to the other personalities?
Tan Jia's attention returned to the interrogation room, where Zheng Yan was indeed asking questions about the same issue.

"Aren't you afraid you can't cover up all these lies? You know best whether Zhou Wen'an is dead or not. The fact that his body was placed as a prop in the newly opened horror-themed bar shows that you probably wanted the body to be discovered. What, did you forget about it after a good night's sleep?"

Yuan Hanyue was stunned for a moment, then her expression changed drastically and her pupils contracted. That anxious and panicked look returned to her face.

"What did you say? The body is... No way, no way..."
