The Chosen System: Counterattack with Husband
Chapter 297 Suspicious Zhou Zhiyu
The person seemed to be aware of Gu Yue's gaze and subconsciously looked in that direction. However, when she saw that three people including Xu Yiyu and Lu Sanshi were looking at her, a hint of confusion appeared on her face very appropriately.
"It seems that this lady herself doesn't know what she has done. How about we go and talk to her and see if we can help her recover her memory?"
It was rare to hear Gu Yue speak in a sarcastic tone to someone. Not only were Xu Yiyu and Lu Sanshi a little surprised, his words also attracted the attention of Ye Yingqi, Wu Nan and Meng Yu who were on the other side of the coffin.
The three of them walked to Xu Yiyu's side at the same time and confirmed with Gu Yue straight away.
"Mr. Gu, are you sure? Although the witch's previous behavior was indeed a bit unreliable, she wouldn't be so bold as to kill someone at this critical moment when the auction is about to end, right? Not to mention whether she has the courage to do such a thing, if her father knew about this, he would definitely kill her!"
Meng Yu didn't want to speak for the witch Zhou Zhiyu, but he felt that although Witch Zhou's actions were a bit absurd, she would never do something that would affect the four families, so he was more objective when speaking.
"Xiao Yu, do you still remember that when the four of us first arrived at the venue today, we met Zhou Zhiyu at the entrance of Longteng Residence?"
Ye Yingqi recalled that when he met Zhou Zhiyu at the entrance of the venue this evening, he always felt that something was wrong with her. Not only did she follow Zhou Fu's instructions and join the four of them in welcoming guests, but other than taking advantage of him and Gu Yue with words, she was unnaturally well-behaved the rest of the time. This was totally unlike her usual style!
However, Zhou Zhiyu said at the time that she joined them to welcome the guests because of Zhou Fu's order. Considering that Zhou Fu had accumulated power in the Zhou family for a long time, he did not have too many doubts at the time. He just felt that this previously lawless Zhou Witch was too timid and too afraid of Zhou Fu.
"Brother Yingqi, now that you mention it, I remember that when we met Witch Zhou, didn't she look like she was waiting for someone? She said she was waiting for us after she saw us, but I clearly remember that she glanced into the venue a few times without giving up."
Meng Yu carefully recalled what happened when he met Zhou Zhiyu at the gate of Longtengju today. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that what Ye Yingqi said made sense - the Zhou family witch was indeed a considerable suspect.
"But even though we are suspicious, without clear evidence, she can only be considered one of the suspects. And objectively speaking, among the few of us, except for Miss Xu and Mr. Lu, we seem to be the most likely to be suspected."
Wu Nan analyzed with a relaxed look, while Xu Yiyu and Lu Sanshi on the side were somewhat amused and helpless when watching the scene.
Several young men from aristocratic families gathered together and talked in a clear and logical manner about how they were suspicious persons. If it wasn't for the wrong occasion, Xu Yiyu would have almost laughed out loud.
When these words came out of their mouths, it felt like they were talking about other people, and they had no awareness at all that they might be the subject of in-depth questioning later.
"Then... should we still test Witch Zhou? She has been so well behaved in the past few hours that she is not like her old self. I even think someone has possessed her."
Meng Yu's suggestion almost made Xu Yiyu laugh out loud in front of the coffin. In order to divert her attention, she stared at the male corpse in the transparent glass cover with her eyes wide open, and finally managed to calm herself down.
Who did Young Master Meng inherit this talent for comedy from? She couldn't see any trace of this talent in Old Master Meng.
"Let's wait a little longer. If the person who put the attacker into the warehouse is indeed Zhou Zhiyu, then if we go over to test her now, it will be too easy to alert the enemy. It's better to wait and see until the official people arrive."
It can only be said that Ye Yingqi is worthy of being the next head of the Ye family chosen by Ye Wen. He made the decision in less than a few seconds after weighing the pros and cons. And this time Wu Nan did not oppose him, but just crossed his arms to express his agreement.
"If the six of us gather together, our targets will be too obvious. It's better for us to disperse first, otherwise Miss Zhou will probably get nervous and suspicious."
Gu Yue, who had just proposed to help Zhou Zhiyu "restore his memory", made his second proposal, and this proposal was also agreed by everyone.
The six people's eyes met each other in the air for a few seconds in tacit understanding. Everyone found an excuse for themselves to leave the spot and continued to observe around the glass cover.
Zhou Zhiyu, who was extremely nervous at this time, saw the six people around the coffin disperse, but his tension did not ease at all.
The man surnamed Gu should have suspected herself. Although she was not stupid, she knew herself well. With her intelligence and logic, she would never be able to defeat those six cunning guys. Her disguise would be exposed sooner or later.
She herself knows the upper limit of her acting skills. Her father is currently too busy dealing with those three old rivals to pay attention to her. Her second sister Zhou Zhishan is also busy asking the staff for information and has no time to observe her closely. Otherwise, they would have seen through this abnormality of her long ago.
With this in mind, Zhou Zhiyu no longer planned to remain passive. She took the initiative to walk to the glass cover that covered the coffin and began to pretend to observe the male corpse inside.
To be honest, she had not dared to look closely at the face of the person in the coffin because she felt guilty, but now after she "performed" with a desperate mentality, she felt less nervous than before.
She didn't know how those guys who implicated her managed to keep this man's body so lively after he lost his life. His expression looked almost the same as when he was sleeping. She even suspected that he was not dead.
Xu Yiyu was walking slowly around the glass cover. He noticed from the corner of his eye that Zhou Zhiyu also walked closer and began to observe the male corpse. A smile so faint that it was almost invisible appeared on his lips.
The third daughter of the Zhou family is indeed not simple. In order to avoid being passive, she has learned to take the initiative by using stillness to overcome movement. She tries to make all her behaviors the same as usual and try to reduce her suspiciousness.
Meng Yu, who was observing the coffin with Wu Nan, suddenly frowned when he walked to the position of the male corpse's head. He squinted his eyes and moved closer to the glass cover, as if he was observing something carefully.
"This guy is not wearing a wig... He is using his real hair to style this Han-style hairstyle."
Meng Yu muttered to himself, his eyes carefully circling around the hairline of the male corpse. When he confirmed that there was no trace of adhesion at all, he felt a little surprised.
In today's society, although behavioral trends are gradually moving towards freedom, hairstyles for both men and women are becoming more and more diverse. There are also men with long hair, such as the man with the surname Gu, who wears his real hair in a bun.
But China is still a country where traditional concepts are deeply rooted. When men with long hair walk in public, they will more or less attract some attention, and the rate of people turning back to look at them is relatively high.
He now really had some doubts as to whether the people who killed this man and put him in the coffin had chosen the dead person at random, or had chosen the most conspicuous and attention-grabbing person under the conditions at the time.
"Don't blame me, don't blame me. We will catch the murderer as soon as possible. Please bless us."
Out of respect for the deceased, Young Master Meng bowed solemnly three times to the male corpse in the coffin, muttering something.
Xu Yiyu's mood also became a little heavy, and it was difficult for him to laugh anymore.
No matter what, this is a human life.
