Pure Darkness

Chapter 35

Two major disclosures in this chapter. One was about Ke Qian and the anime murder case, and the other, about Han Yumeng. I'm not sure which direction Ding Mo will take with this, but, oh, Fu Ziyu, my heart hurts for you. . .

The color of Xu Sheng's face suddenly changed. It was extremely terrifying, like the face of someone who had suddenly died.

“Why...” Fang Qing slowly asked, “Are you all not suspicious of Ke Qian?”

This name was like a bullet that exploded in Xu Sheng's ear. He didn't say anything, but it looked as if he wanted to use his hands to grab the photos but didn't dare to do so. Fang Qing saw his fingers tremble, his entire body looked like it was about to fall out of a chair.

“You're so scared of him?” Fang Qing asked, “There was a witness who saw him two nights ago entering your studio to deliver the poison. He was one of the founders of the organization, so he must have had a key, right? Why didn't you guys say anything? Last night, he killed Jiang Xueran, we can almost catch him.”

Xu Sheng suddenly stretched out his hand, swiping the photos to the ground. Then his shoulders started shaking violently and he shouted, “No! That's not possible! How is it possible.how can this happen..”.

His state of mind had completely collapsed.

Fang Qing was silent and did not say anything.

In other interrogation rooms, cross-examination continues in the same way.

Jian Yao pushed the image of Jiang Xueran's corpse in front of Wen Xiaohua.

Wen Xiaohua's reaction was worse than Xu Sheng's reaction, he froze completely, and then immediately fell from his chair to the ground.

“How can this be .. how can this be ..” His face was extremely pale, his entire body was trembling. Bo Jinyan lifted him off the ground.

“This is the appearance that Ke Qian often cosplayed, right?” Bo Jinyan slowly asked. “Before he killed Jiang Xueran, Ke Qian wore that costume on him.”

Wen Xiaohua widened her eyes, “You…. You.. You mean the person who killed Jiang Xueran is... is Ke, Ke Qian?”

“There was a witness.” said Jian Yao. “The person who poisoned it was also him.”

Wen Xiaohua's entire face lost its color, “That's...it's impossible! That's someone else! It's someone else!”

Bo Jinyan's body leaned slightly forward. He looked at Wen Xiaohua intently, and the corner of his lips twisted in a contemptuous smile, “Wen Xiaohua, Ke Qian has only been missing for half a year, why is your entire group hiding the fact that she was once a member. from group? Why are you more sure than the police that he's not the criminal?”

Wen Xiaohua had no answer. He suddenly lowered his head, avoiding Bo Jinyan's gaze.

“What did you guys do to him?” Bo Jinyan asked him slowly and clearly.

Wen Xiaohua's tears fell in big drops, “I don't know, I don't know anything! That's not me! I just. I want to go home! I want to go back!” He started crying.

Seeing that his state of mind was about to collapse, Bo Jinyan glanced at Jian Yao. Jian Yao walked forward, gently patted Wen Xiaohua on the shoulder, and said to him, “Xiaohua, let us know. Three people have died, maybe Ke Qian's next victim is you. If you don't tell us, we have no way to help you. Is life more important, or is hiding the truth more important? Even if there is an issue that is too painful to discuss or deal with, it is better than dying, right?”

Wen Xiaohua hid her face in her hands while crying to the fullest. “But…. But it can't be him! I know, I know ..” he raised his head in horror. “He must have risen! Ghost, he's a ghost! He became a ghost to come and kill us! Half a year ago, we personally buried it..”.

Simultaneously, the expressions of Bo Jinyan and Jian Yao turned into shock.

——

Through the efforts of Bo Jinyan and the rest of the team, they get closer to the truth about the serial murders that occurred in the anime park. However, at the same time all this was happening, in another corner of the city, there was also someone who was planning, someone who was spying.

Han Yumeng was sitting in front of the window, staring at the unfamiliar city. She was wearing the long water blue dress she bought that day, her long hair rolled up, her appearance dignified. His eyes were so peaceful, like no matter how big the waves were, they would not make his heart tremble in any way.

“Do you see it?” a voice asked from not so far away.

“I saw it,” answered.

“Do you want to see it directly?”

He laughed a little. “No problem.”

“Can you kill him?”

“You won't be able to bear it?”

“Of course not.”

The man chuckled, then asked again, “What do you want?”

Han Yumeng looked out the window, paused for a moment, then replied, “My biggest hope is of course to forever stay with the man I love, my hero.”

The man laughed again. “Alright, they are currently being played by someone with an unimportant role. We don't have to rush to show ourselves. However, we've had enough of playing around with them. It is time for you and Fu Ziyu to have contact. You better go.”

Han Yumeng stood up, picked up her bag, and walked out of the room.

As he passed by the man, he grabbed his elbow. “He'll definitely touch you, right? You know it will make me very unhappy.”

Han Yumeng chuckled, and pulled her arm from his grasp. “Isn't this the feeling you love?”

“Hahaha..” He started laughing out loud.

——

Fu Ziyu did not listen to Bo Jinyan's words. These past two days, he had constantly walked everywhere, looking everywhere. He went to where Han Yumeng had appeared, looking at every corner, hoping to see his footsteps again.

But he didn't get anything for his efforts.

He was in a constant state of frustration and helplessness. Thinking of the sweetness of a person far away once in a while, he felt frustrated and helpless. In fact, there were many details that he could not remember clearly. Thinking of these past years, he also felt frustrated and helpless. He experienced so many things, but it was as if everything had passed in the blink of an eye.

Regarding his appearance this time, he felt even more frustrated and helpless. The person he was facing was like an unknown woman. But every time he thought about it, his heart would still hurt a little.

Does he still love her?

He was not sure, because missing him had become a habit.

Does he not love her?

But he still vividly remembered every sentence that described his departure in the news back then. More than once, at night, he imagined the torment he had suffered, the scene of his death. He will never forget it in this life.

His kindness, his enthusiasm, his sexiness.

his prowess.

Yep. If, in Fu Ziyu's life, there was a woman who could be described using the word ‘hebat’, it was her. He who volunteered to help in Africa at such a young age; he who hated that he could not give all he had for every refugee he met; it was he who decided to sacrifice himself to save some other lucky survivors.

……

Fu Ziyu had no doubt that the person he saw was Han Yumeng.

But eight years had passed, why did he leave? And why did he come back?

Is he still .... with the same appearance that bloomed in the deepest part of his heart?

At midnight, the magnificent buildings of the city were still clear, cold, and deserted. While being alone, Fu Ziyu's facial expression was always quiet, without the radiant and radiant expression he had when interacting with his friends.

He entered the password for the door, opened it.

The light was on, and someone was sitting in front of the window.

He looked and stood up.

The expression in his eyes was one that Fu Ziyu could never forget this lifetime.

But her voice was as calm and warm as the first time she met him. “Ziyu, I'm back. I don't think that the password for that door is still my birthday. I'm directly in.”

Whatever was in Fu Ziyu's hands fell to the ground.

The ground under his feet turned flat, but he stumbled forward. It was as if he had walked through life for a long time before he could walk towards her.
