Zuo Chenye looked solemn after hanging up the phone. Shen Xiuyun's call still affected his mood.
Qiao Ran had never defended herself before.
At this moment, she struggled repeatedly, and for the first time she spoke to defend herself, "Whether you believe it or not, I did not kill grandma."
She let out a long sigh, her expression serious and sad, full of loneliness and loneliness, "I grew up in an orphanage and had no relatives. After all, my grandma treated me like a family member. I love her and respect her. I hope she lives a long life. Why?
Might kill her."
Zuo Chenye looked at Qiao Ran in shock. He understood her temperament. He was not willing to force her to do things she didn't want to say, so he never asked her.
I didn't expect that she would take the initiative to say this.
"Don't get me wrong. I don't mean to defend myself. Grandma is the person closest to you. I think you have the right to know what happened at that time. I'm just stating it. As for whether you believe it or not, it's up to you."
She spoke slowly and truthfully told Zuo Chenye what happened after she returned to Zuo's house that afternoon, including the strange and threatening calls she received when she was in the group, including her vigilance in asking Lin Yuyue to help her call the police.
Including being taken to the second branch of the police station and meeting Gong Suyan.
Let Zuo Chenye describe all the specific details.
After listening, Zuo Chenye held his forehead with one hand and fell into deep thought.
After a moment, he whispered, "I never doubted that you killed grandma. I know very well that this is unreasonable."
After listening to Qiao Ran's narration, he became more firm in his judgment. His grandmother's death must have nothing to do with Qiao Ran. Of course, it couldn't be Shen Xiuyun, let alone Zuo Xiaoxiao.
There must be another force that they don't know about, manipulating the whole thing behind the scenes.
Including the strange threatening phone calls Qiao Ran received, including the surveillance that had been broken for several days at Zuo's old house, including why Shen Xiuyun and Zuo Xiaoxiao arrived not long after Qiao Ran arrived at Zuo's house? That's how they bumped into each other and identified them on the spot.
Qiao Ran is the murderer. There seems to be a pair of invisible hands behind the scenes, pushing all of this.
However, he could not think of the purpose of this force for the time being.
It is really incredible that grandma deliberately left all the shares that Shen Xiuyun and Zuo Xiaoxiao originally deserved to Qiao Ran. You know, grandma knows very well that Qiao Ran and he are only in a fake marriage. They will divorce in the future. After the divorce,
It is equivalent to handing over huge shares to outsiders.
Grandma would not do this for no reason, so what is the deep meaning behind doing this before she dies?
Everything is like a mystery, overlapping and impossible to solve.
After Qiao Ran said all this, he felt much more relaxed.
She didn't expect that he would choose to believe her on a big issue of right and wrong.
This was something she didn't expect.
No matter how much, I was still a little moved.
Zuo Chenye stood up and said, "You have a good rest. Yan Han and I are going out. At least you can't get out of bed tomorrow. The wound hasn't healed yet, so try not to move around."
After that, he turned around and prepared to leave.
"Wait a minute." Qiao Ran suddenly reached out and grabbed his arm.
"When is grandma's funeral..." When she mentioned this, her expression instantly became sad, and her voice was choked with sobs.
Zuo Chenye's handsome face was also stained with sadness, "I agreed to conduct an autopsy. I used my connections at the top and the results will be released today. So..."
He took a deep breath and said painfully, "I think the funeral will be held the day after tomorrow at the latest. It would be better for grandma to be buried as early as possible."
"I'm going."
I heard that an autopsy would be performed after my grandma died, and she would not be able to rest in peace after her death.
She felt a pain in her heart and her breathing was stagnant. The hand holding his arm slowly slipped away weakly.
When he was about to let go, he suddenly held her hand and wrapped her in his warm palm, as if giving her strength.
Qiao Ran slowly raised his head and looked at him with extremely serious and sincere eyes.
"I must go to the funeral. I know your mother, your sister, and perhaps others don't want me to go. But, I must go to see grandma on her last journey. Please!"
If it were not for this reason, she would not even be willing to be released on bail pending trial. Of course she hopes to walk out of the detention center with a clean conscience.
"I know. Don't worry." He patted her hand gently.
At this time, the severe cold knocked on the door gently outside.
"Master Zuo, I have prepared everything you need. Can you bring it in now?"
"Okay." Zuo Chenye ordered.
Qiao Ran shrank under the quilt, covering herself completely except for her small face. After all, she was still wearing Zuo Chenye's shirt.
Yan Han opened the door, and he was holding several bags in his hands.
He placed the bag on the ground, not far from Qiao Ran, and took out everything one by one.
"Young Master Zuo, here are the clothes, shoes, and pajamas. They are all bought according to your instructions. The screen of the young mistress's mobile phone is broken. This is a new mobile phone. This is the oral medicine Lin Feng brought over in the morning to prevent wound infection and inflammation.
, told the young lady to take it on time twice a day."
Yan Han neatly placed the medicines on Qiao Ran's bedside table, and also placed a bottle of water and a water glass.
"Here's food, sandwiches, biscuits, bread and snacks." He took out all the food and placed them on the bedside table one by one.
"I will come back as soon as possible. If I can't make it in time, I may not come back until the afternoon. Just eat a little. If there is something urgent, call me." Zuo Chenye asked.
"Well, it's okay, I feel much better. I can complete simple things by myself. Don't worry about me." Qiao Ran said. She knew that Zuo Chenye had just come back from country M, and his grandma passed away suddenly, so she had to deal with it.
There are definitely a lot of things going on.
It's really hard to deal with the severe cold, so I buy long and short, and serve her like a nanny.
"What is this?" Qiao Ran pointed to a small bag mixed in a pile of items.
It was very unexpected. Looking at the outer packaging, it looked like jewelry inside. She asked curiously.
Yan Han stepped forward, rummaged through, found a small bag, brought it to Qiao Ran, and handed it to her, "I don't know, I found it from Mr. Zuo's salute. I thought it was a lady's item, so I took it together.
Mr. Zuo, what is this?"
Zuo Chenye glanced at it, his expression instantly awkward.
This is the necklace he bought for Qiao Ran before going to country M.
The necklace is called "Wheel of Fortune" and I never had the chance to give it to Qiao Ran.
