Chapter 799: A Million Times for You (161)

An Xiaoning instructed Pan Zhenghui, “Bureau Chief, go back to the police station and instruct Team Leader Zhang to bring his subordinates over to visit Yi Ying’s family in Yi Bay. I’ll go visit Wang Xin first to find out more. Let’s strive to gather more information in the shortest possible time. After all, we’ve already alarmed the spirit tonight. That Yi Ying might be infuriated and commit even more maniacal acts. That’ll make things even harder. By the way, do inform the troupe leader to keep the identity of the informant confidential.”

“Alright.” Seeing that she was only bringing her personal bodyguards with her, Pan Zhenghui said, “Take a few more people with you.”

“It’s alright.” She alighted from the car together with No. 5 and No. 8 before closing the car door.

Handing her car keys to No. 5, An Xiaoning said, “Our car and the police cars are allowed to travel on the roads. Drive my car out of the entrance while No. 8 and I proceed to look for Wang Xin.”

“Sure.” No. 5 took the keys from her and went on to drive the car away.

No. 8 and An Xiaoning entered the apartment building opposite her house and made their way to the 18th floor.

After exiting the elevator, she walked toward the door of Unit A and looked at No. 8 before pressing the doorbell.

“Who’s there?” a woman asked from inside.

“It’s me.”

The door was swung open, and a young woman looked at them from head to toe before asking, “Are you An Xiaoning?”

“Yes, is Wang Xin home?”

“No.”

“Around what time will he be back?”

“I don’t know, he has to entertain some clients tonight. I’m not sure when he’ll be home.”

“We’ll go in and wait, then.”

An Xiaoning walked past the woman and entered the house. An Xiaoning was probably the only person who could show up uninvited with such composure.

Dumbfounded, Wang Xin’s wife closed the door and hurriedly followed them. “What are you guys looking for my husband for?”

An Xiaoning waved and said, “Have a seat. Don’t worry, I came to look for him just to find out more about something.”

“Find out more about what? Could you tell me?” Wang Xin’s wife asked, taking a seat.

“You’ll know when I tell you guys later once he comes home. I don’t wish to explain myself twice.”

“Why don’t I give him a call?”

“Sure, but don’t tell him that I’m looking for him, just get him to come home as soon as possible.”

Wang Xin’s wife nodded and gave her husband a call to urge him to come home as soon as possible by telling him that something urgent had cropped up. Wang Xin agreed.

“How long have you been married?” An Xiaoning asked.

“Three years.”

“Do you have any children?”

Shaking her head, Wang Xin’s wife answered, “Not yet, but we’re planning to conceive soon.”

An Xiaoning did not ask any further questions and waited patiently for Wang Xin to return.

Half an hour later, the door was opened and a man who was in his thirties entered with his bag.

Upon the sight of them, Wang Xin looked at his wife and asked, “What’s the matter?”

“They said that they’d like to find out more from you about something, I don’t know what it is, though,” said Wang Xin’s wife, who placed his bag aside and sat down beside him

“Aren’t you that An Xiaoning who lives in the mansion opposite us?” Wang Xin asked, appearing completely sober despite having drunk some alcohol.

“Yes, I do live opposite, but I came to look for you to discuss a case I’d like to find out more about. Do you know who Yi Ying is?” she asked frankly.

“No,” Wang Xin denied.

“Wasn’t she your ex-girlfriend? How could you not know her? I wouldn’t have come to you without prior investigation. I suggest you stop trying to hide any parts of the truth. Answer all my questions truthfully if you don’t wish to bring any trouble upon yourself,” An Xiaoning said sternly.

Wang Xin’s wife stared at her husband in astonishment and asked, “Is that true?”

After a moment of hesitation, Wang Xin asked, “What do you want to know about a person who’s already been dead for five years?”

He indirectly admitted to what An Xiaoning had said.

“I believe you should be aware that all vehicles are prohibited from traveling on the roads. I’d like to ask you, do you know why that’s the case?”

Shaking his head, Wang Xin answered, “No, there are so many theories going around but there hasn’t been an exact reason so far.”

“A major traffic accident would happen once every three days. All the victims were young, unmarried males, and there were explosives in all of their cars. The incidents have caused great disturbance and danger to residents and citizens. The perpetrator is none other than Yi Ying. After investigating, we found out that she had died in a car accident five years ago.”

Wang Xin snorted with laughter upon hearing her words and sneered, “Are you kidding me? You actually pinned a dead person as the main culprit? What in the world are you talking about? Does the government now allow you to spread such superstitious rumors?”

“Seems like you don’t understand why I’m the head investigator of this case, Wang Xin. I’m psychic and I possess the ability to see spirits and supernatural beings. I saw Yi Ying with my own eyes during the four-vehicle collision two weeks ago,” An Xiaoning said with a smirk.

She unrolled the scrolled-up sketch and handed it to him, “I saw her again possessing another man and manipulating him to cause another accident tonight.”

Wang Xin’s initial smile stiffened, and a grave expression formed on his face upon seeing the sketch.

“You can’t laugh anymore, can you? Listen up, you’d better tell me everything you know. There’s no way you can escape if you had something to do with her death,” An Xiaoning warned.

“How could I be related to her death!?! You need evidence before you make accusations,” Wang Xin screeched, raising his chin.

“I meant ‘if,’ I didn’t say that it necessarily had to be you. Why would a woman who really died in an accidental car crash be so full of vengeance? Mr. Wang, can you cooperate with me now?” An Xiaoning questioned, staring at him.

Fuming with anger, Wang Xin grabbed the armrest of the couch and said in disgruntlement, “I’ll tell you everything you want to know about, truthfully.”

Wang Xin’s wife was dumbfounded and consumed by fear and terror.

However, she dared not utter a single word and instead listened quietly.

“Okay then, when did you break up with her? Answer me clearly. Don’t tell me a different answer when I ask you the same question again in the future. I believe you don’t have a poor memory.”

Wang Xin answered, “We broke up two months before she got into an accident. I didn’t know my wife yet back then. My wife and I met after the accident and got married later. I broke up with Yi Ying because I was sick of how neurotic she was and I couldn’t stand it anymore. I initiated the breakup, but she didn’t agree to it at first and even tried to salvage our relationship. She then conceded later on and we broke up rather successfully.”

“Why did you have to warn the troupe members not to spout nonsense about your relationship with her after her death?”

Remaining calm and composed, Wang Xin answered, “Nothing, I just heard them murmuring about my relationship with Yi Ying and badmouthing me behind my back when I visited the troupe to pick my wife up. They were extremely nasty with their remarks and even accused me of being the cause of Yi Ying’s death. I was infuriated, and so I decided to warn them one by one not to spout any nonsense. Actually, I was just afraid that my wife would be influenced by what they said. After all, gossip really is a fearful thing.”
