Listening to Inner Voices Can Also Solve Cases

"Miss Bai, oh wait, Officer Bai, can you not use handcuffs? I don't think I've done anything wrong."

Tang Yu walked up to her with a grin, his gaze darting around the room.

Unfortunately, he didn't see that guy Long Ya.

Extorting my hotel! You deserve what's coming to you!

Bai Wanyi shook her head to clear her mind, cuffed Tang Yu, and said coldly.

"Stop laughing. You're a criminal suspect too, so go inside and wait for me."

She pointed toward an office to the side.

The interrogation rooms were already full tonight, so she had to make do with the office.

Tang Yu walked inside obediently.

Soon, Bai Wanyi walked in carrying a cup of black coffee.

Taking a sip, the bitter taste helped her feel much more alert.

"Have you heard about what happened at Mingyue Hotel today?"

She sat down and looked at Tang Yu as she asked.

"I have, it's already on the news."

Tang Yu nodded.

"Alright then, as the former owner of Mingyue Hotel, you are also a criminal suspect, so let's start taking your statement."

Bai Wanyi picked up her pen, ready to start recording.

"Wait, how am I a criminal suspect?"

Tang Yu looked completely innocent.

[You're the criminal suspect, you idiot.]

[My family is so rich, why would I be bored enough to do something like this?]

[That email you got was sent by me, okay?]

[Why would I be bored enough to report my own crimes?]

Hearing the inner voice again, Bai Wanyi could finally confirm that she wasn't just hallucinating or hearing things.

This was clearly that guy's cheeky voice.

Her beautiful brows furrowed slightly.

She couldn't dwell on the fact that she could hear his inner thoughts right now.

She was more concerned about the email.

That email, he sent it to her?

She wasn't the type to be unreasonable; with the Tang Family's capital, there was indeed no need for him to touch such dirty business.

"Fine, I admit that calling you a criminal suspect might not be entirely appropriate, but you still need to cooperate with our investigation."

Bai Wanyi twirled her pen and stared at Tang Yu. "Do you have any clues regarding this case?"

"I don't. I bought the hotel a while ago just to host a birthday party for Su Muyue, and I sold it right after."

Tang Yu chuckled, pulling Su Muyue out to use as a shield.

[Everything I know, I already sent to you, okay?]

[But I did find out that scum like Tian Can and Di Que were causing trouble, which is why I sold the hotel.]

[Under normal circumstances, I would have reported them directly, but Long Ya insisted on forcing a purchase of the hotel, so I had no choice.]

[That bastard, in order to frame me, killed someone in my hotel and staged it as a suicide, then brought people to cause a scene.]

[If I hadn't been unable to find evidence, I would have reported him too, okay?]

Bai Wanyi's body trembled slightly, and her eyes were practically spitting fire.

Long Ya?

The hotel murder case she had been struggling to investigate was actually orchestrated by him?

When she went to arrest Long Ya today, she had already felt that something was off.

That guy had several calluses on his hands.

Based on her judgment, those were the marks of someone who had practiced with firearms for years!

"What a piece of work, Long Ya."

Bai Wanyi gritted her teeth; as a police officer, she hated criminals like this the most.

However, she was also a bit annoyed with the Tang Yu sitting in front of her.

Since this guy knew so much, why was he hiding it and not telling her?

It was a good thing she could hear his inner voice.

Why is this silly girl gritting her teeth? I didn't say anything wrong.

Don't tell me she's jealous because I celebrated Su Muyue's birthday?

Sigh, I guess it's understandable. She's busy with work every day and has never dated, so jealousy is normal.

You can be jealous all you want, just don't try to stab me in the back.

If you can't find the book by its title, try searching for the author; perhaps the name has been changed!

If you can't have it, destroy it. I know you crazy women all too well.

Seeing Bai Wanyi suddenly look murderous, Tang Yu muttered to himself in his heart.

Bai Wanyi almost slapped this guy to death on the spot.

Damn it, who wants to "have" you?

She took a large gulp of black coffee to perk herself up, stared at Tang Yu, and said, "Then I'd like to know, why did you suddenly sell the hotel to Long Ya, and at such a low price? This move is highly suspicious."

"I'm rich, I can do whatever I want."

Tang Yu smiled with an air of unbridled wealth.

He brings people to cause trouble every day; I can't even run my hotel properly, can I?

If he keeps messing around, what if he frames me with a human life again?

People who started out as mercenaries are all heartless, damn it.

"Mercenary?"

Bai Wanyi's expression changed once again.

She had already conducted an investigation into Long Ya.

According to the information she gathered, Long Ya's status abroad was that of an entrepreneur, and he had returned to the country to invest.

As for him being a mercenary, she truly hadn't found anything on that.

She quickly noted down this key piece of information. It couldn't be wrong; this lead fit her hypothesis perfectly.

"Then how much do you know about this person, Long Ya?"

Bai Wanyi continued to ask.

"Not well, but Officer Bai, I get the feeling this guy isn't a good person. He looks like someone who has killed before."

"He was in such a rush to buy my hotel, I suspect he might be involved with a criminal syndicate. You really need to investigate him thoroughly."

Tang Yu didn't hesitate to start splashing mud on Long Ya.

I don't know a damn thing about a piece of trash like him.

This guy is a deranged mad dog who collects body parts from his victims after killing them.

Oh, I remember now. The hair of that woman he killed might be hidden in his house.

I'll send you an email later; I almost forgot about that.

Bai Wanyi quickly noted down this key clue.

Having obtained so many leads, this case could finally be solved.

She found Tang Yu slightly more tolerable now; this guy had truly been a big help.

But how did he know so much?

After going through the motions and asking a few more questions, she, eager to start her investigation, put away her pen and said, "Alright, the investigation ends here. Thank you for your cooperation."

"It's no trouble, just a hard life. It would be great if Officer Bai could treat me to some barbecue as compensation."

Tang Yu shook his handcuffed hands and chuckled.

"Sure, but next time. I'm busy right now."

Bai Wanyi took out her keys and unlocked Tang Yu's handcuffs.

The fact that she agreed so readily left Tang Yu a bit bewildered.

Damn, is this woman actually going to treat me to a meal?

Better not. Don't be so polite; I wouldn't dare eat with you.

What if you get attracted to my handsome face? That would ruin my plans to keep a low profile.

"???"

Bai Wanyi looked at this guy with a confused expression.

Me, attracted to your handsome face?

Pfft!

She still had a case to solve and had no time to bicker with him.

As for the matter of being able to hear his inner thoughts, she decided to ponder it slowly later on.

First, she had to deal with this brat Long Ya!

The two of them had just prepared to get up and leave the office.

The office door was pushed open by someone.

Ye Chen walked in from outside with a lawyer, his expression looking rather unpleasant.

Half an hour ago, he had suddenly received news that Long Ya had actually been arrested.

After looking into the case at Mingyue Hotel, he had rushed over here in a burning hurry with his people.

Long Ya had spent years abroad and was not particularly clear about domestic laws, but he was well-versed in these matters.

In Huaxia, as long as one was even slightly involved with drugs, they could basically consider their life over.

Can't find the book title? You can try searching for the author; perhaps it just changed its name!
