Waiting for you at the place where you are reborn

After a long period of throbbing and entanglement, he finally hugged her tightly to his chest and bit her earlobe gently, "Xiaojing, you make me crazy——"

Ruan Xiaojing lay softly in Fang Zheng's arms. A picture flashed through her mind. He had completed what he wanted to do, and everything returned to the starting point... She shuddered involuntarily.

"What's wrong?" Fang Zheng asked her.

Ruan Xiaojing hugged him tightly, "I also want to go with you to find the words 'A Thousand Birds Return to Their Nests'."

Fang Zheng kissed her hair lovingly, then reached out and held her fingers tightly, saying, "I will definitely help you find it."

Before the end of her honeymoon, Jiang Li rushed back to the Criminal Investigation Brigade.

Wang Yuegu discovered a particularly important clue, which prevented Jiang Li from having a peaceful honeymoon.

After repeatedly checking the videos of various intersections that night, Wang Yuegu found a video on an overpass 500 meters from the Third Ring Road into the chemical plant that clearly showed the people in the driver's seat and the co-pilot seat of Qi Xiangtian's car. After zooming in and comparing, the person in the driver's seat was Qi Xiangtian, and the person in the co-pilot seat was actually Song Qiaoran.

Jiang Li couldn't calm down when she heard Song Qiaoran's name. Wu Linxi kept reminding her to check the whereabouts of Song Qiaoran and Song Siyao that night. It was inspired by this that she insisted on checking the videos and various information of the relevant sections of the road that night.

It is indeed related to the Song family.

The day before the wedding, Wu Linxi brought a man to her house. She clearly remembered that this was the man she saw in Qin Yesi's kitchen, and she was stunned that night. There were many photos of him on the Internet. His name was Zhang Keyan, and he was the fiancé of Song Qiaoran, the daughter of Song Siyao of Yide Pharmaceutical.

Why was he with Wu Linxi? More importantly, why did he feel familiar with her?

Wu Linxi pulled her aside and asked, "Who do you think he looks like?"

Jiang Li looked at Zhang Keyan again, but due to her professional habits as a police officer, she didn't dare to speak her mind easily.

"Like-Qi Xiangtian." Wu Linxi said to her.

Jiang Li was stunned. Yes, Wu Linxi had expressed what she was thinking. Wasn't this Qi Xiangtian? His height, tone, the way he looked at Wu Linxi, and his doting expression, except for his different face, was he Qi Xiangtian?

Jiang Li didn't say anything, Wu Linxi continued: "If Zhang Keyan is actually Qi Xiangtian, and the real Zhang Keyan didn't come back, doesn't this sound like a fairy tale?"

Jiang Li looked at Wu Linxi stupidly, "Are you crazy to make up such a story?"

Wu Linxi held Jiang Li's hand, tears in her eyes, "This is not a story I made up. I have done a genetic comparison between Zhang Keyan and Qi Xiangtian's father and confirmed that they are father and son. He can't be an Indo-Filipino, and he can't be Zhang Keyan."

Jiang Li looked at Wu Linxi in shock. She actually did something so earth-shattering. It seemed like a story from the Arabian Nights. It actually happened around her. Love can make people so irrational that it's scary.

"Lin Xi..." Jiang Li shouted. Although it was her wedding day, the shock she felt from this incident was no less than the excitement of getting married. "Don't worry, I will investigate the matter thoroughly and return it to you..." She looked at Zhang Keyan who was not far away and said firmly, "Return it to you - Qi Xiangtian."

Fearing that the situation might change, on the third day after the marriage, Jiang Li asked Wang Yuegu to question Song Qiaoran.

"Sister Jiang, enjoy your honeymoon first, I'll take care of it." Wang Yuegu said to Jiang Li on the phone.

Jiang Li held the phone and said, "It's been almost two years since the case began. I finally have some clues. I must investigate it with you. Honeymoon - we can make up for it later."

After ending the call, he looked at Wu Hanzhou standing at the door of the hotel bathroom. He raised his phone and looked at Jiang Li, "Officer Jiang, I have booked a flight ticket and will be back tomorrow morning."

Jiang Li walked quickly to Wu Hanzhou and threw herself into his arms, her eyes moist, "Hanzhou, thank you for your understanding and support. I will make it up to you in the future."

Wu Hanzhou carried Jiang Li horizontally to the bedside and asked emotionally: "Can we make up for it tonight?"

Jiang Li hugged his neck and put her lips to his, "Tonight, you can do whatever you want."

The next morning, the two flew back to Lincheng from Xiamen. After leaving the gifts at the door, Jiang Li drove to the Criminal Investigation Brigade.

Without wasting much time, Wang Yuegu and Jiang Li rushed to the Song family's mountaintop villa. It was said that Song Qiaoran was in Lincheng these days.

Under the guidance of his servants, they walked into the Song family's luxurious and large living room.

"Two officers, please wait a moment." The servant went upstairs to call for someone. By chance, Song Qiaoran's mother Qiao Meilin walked in from the garden nearby. The servant said, "Madam, these two officers are here to see Miss Qiaoran. They said there is a case that needs her help in investigating."

Qiao Meilin asked in panic: "What happened to Qiao Ran? What happened?"

Wang Yuegu said hurriedly: "I'm just asking her questions, it doesn't mean there's anything wrong."

Qiao Meilin said, "What case is related to her?"

Wang Yuegu said: "It's an old case, more than a year ago."

Qiao Meilin said: "Qiao Ran has not been in Lincheng for more than a year, so how could there be a case for her to investigate?"

Jiang Li asked: "Where has she been for more than a year?"

Qiao Meilin said: "They are all in Xijing, because her father found Zhang Keyan and he has been with Zhang Keyan."

"I've been gone for more than a year..." Jiang Li frowned slightly. When she heard someone coming down the stairs, she turned around and saw Song Qiaoran, dressed in casual clothes, coming down from the second floor. She had a pale complexion, was thin and tall, and had a cold expression.

"Hello, Miss Song." Wang Yuegu greeted, "We are police officers from the Criminal Investigation Brigade. This is our team leader Jiang Li. My name is Wang Yuegu."

Song Qiaoran sat down on the sofa opposite them. "The police are looking for me? Are you sure?"

Jiang Li looked at Song Qiaoran. She had heard Wu Linxi tell the story of her and Qi Xiangtian. It was said that she had once been deeply in love with Qi Xiangtian. Now, she was engaged to Zhang Keyan, the pharmacist's son whom she had just found, which attracted a lot of attention in Lincheng.

Jiang Li said, "Ms. Song, this is a case from more than a year ago. Do you remember the case of the explosion at the Xijiao Chemical Plant?"

Song Qiaoran looked at Jiang Li expressionlessly, "Chemical plant explosion? When did it happen? Should I know about this case?"

Jiang Li said, "You may not know about this case, but Qi Xiangtian's personal belongings and his car were found at the explosion site, and at 7:15 that evening, you appeared in the passenger seat of Qi Xiangtian's car in the video captured by the traffic control department. In other words, before the explosion, before Qi Xiangtian disappeared, you were the last person to have contact with him."

Song Qiaoran sat up straight, her eyes became stiff, and after a few seconds she returned to her previous arrogance, "How can I remember something that happened more than a year ago if you ask me now?"

"You really don't remember?" Jiang Li looked at Song Qiaoran scrutinizingly, "After that night, Qi Xiangtian disappeared and never showed up again."

Song Qiaoran said: "Qi Xiangtian and I are partners. They are responsible for making software for my biological company in Xijing, so it is normal for me to meet him. As for when he disappeared, I don't know."

Jiang Li continued to stare at Song Qiaoran. "But on the day of the explosion, you appeared in Qi Xiangtian's car, 500 meters away from the explosion site, and more than an hour before the explosion. Where did you go with him that day?"

Song Qiaoran avoided Jiang Li's gaze and said, "How can I remember clearly where I went? It's been more than a year. Can you remember clearly where you went that day?"

"Ms. Song, I hope you can cooperate with the police in answering questions." Wang Yuegu said, "What you remember is very important to the case. There were two bodies at the scene, Qi Xiangtian's life or death is unknown, Qi Xiangtian's car and belongings were at the scene, and you were the last person to meet Qi Xiangtian. Only you know where Qi Xiangtian went that day, what he did, and who was there."

Song Qiaoran turned his head and looked at the garden outside the window. "You just saw me in Qi Xiangtian's car. I got off the car halfway. I don't know where he went. This answer is very reasonable, right?"

"Ms. Song—" Wang Yuegu shouted, "As a citizen, you have an obligation to cooperate with the police in investigating the case."

"I've cooperated very well." Song Qiaoran stood up from the sofa and walked to the table. "The police don't have the privilege to force citizens to speak. I've said what I need to say."

Jiang Li made a gesture to stop Wang Yuegu. She looked at Song Qiaoran and said, "Miss Song, Zhang Keyan, who disappeared more than 20 years ago, was found by you and your father. I heard that he is from Indochina. Indochina is so big, how did you find out that he is Zhang Keyan? I heard that he also experienced an explosion. According to the time, it is about the same as the explosion of our Xijiao Chemical Plant. I also want to check online to see if there was really an explosion in Indochina at that time."

After saying that, Jiang Li still looked at Song Qiaoran, waiting for her response.

Song Qiaoran's expression froze. After a long while, she smiled coldly, "Officer Jiang, are you investigating me, Zhang Keyan, or the chemical plant explosion?"

Jiang Li said: "Isn't this related?"

Song Qiaoran stared at Jiang Li and said, "You are a policeman, you can't make random guesses and say anything. What kind of impact might a random word you say have on Yide and Yide's stock price? If a lawsuit is filed, can you afford the compensation?"

Jiang Li stood up from the sofa. "Ms. Song, if there are any clues, the police can conduct normal inquiries of citizens according to procedures. I think you may have been influenced by Zhang Keyan and your memory is not very good. We will give you some time to recall it and arrange a time to question you next time. If the two bodies that day cannot be identified and there is no result in Qi Xiangtian's disappearance, we will keep investigating, no matter when it ends."
