Chapter 129: I Will Torture Her With All My Might

On the same day, the police in Jianchuan contacted Su Zipei. They had found new clues in the case of the fire of the house of the Mu family.

After so long, why were they still investigating the case? Wasn’t the case closed already?

But, Su Zipei and Mu Qiqi went to the police station anyway.

Apparently, the police had captured a thug group. They specialized in helping people to do dirty jobs with payment. When they were investigating a group fight, a man called Cheng Qiang confessed that he had received money from the Mu family and took the key to enter the villa.

In the villa, he did two things. The first thing he did was to ignite the wall. The next thing he did was to lock all the doors of all the rooms from the outside.

“Who hired you? You better confess now!”

“Who else could it be? That dead woman’s husband, of course! He did not want to let her take away his assets. So, he created the fire and burnt his wife down.” The short and thin man was filthy. He looked at the floor when confessing.

“That man gave me a large sum of money. He even sent me overseas. But I came back secretly because my wife said she was about to give birth.”

“I always do my job without leaving a trace. But this time, I was tricked by my wife to come back.”

“Without leaving a trace? Now, you will have to spend the rest of life in prison.”

After the interrogation, the police came out to meet Su Zipei and Mu Qiqi.

“Now that we have gathered important clues and evidence of this case, I believe we can solve the case very soon.”

“Although I have been mentally prepared myself for this, I still find it hard to accept the truth. It is devastating,” said Su Zipei. They knew it all along who had caused the fire. But she did not believe that Mu Tangxue would be innocent.

“Sir, my other niece was in the villa that day. Will you summon her again?”

“Questioning her is part of the procedure,” replied the police officer. He said, “Don’t worry. Since it is not an accident, we will surely look into the case.”

“Sir, my mother went to the house with a lawyer that day. And the lawyer said that that man agreed on the divorce without any objection. My mother should have left the house after getting the papers signed. Who would stay in the house of her ex-husband overnight?”

“Unless, someone asked her to.”

“What do you mean?” asked the police officer.

“Mu Tangxue is my sister. It might seem that I am a bit too much to say my sister is a suspect, but I still hope the police will investigate the case in this direction. My mother’s face was completely disfigured when she died, I do not want the criminals to get away with this,” said Mu Qiqi.

The police nodded and said, “Sure, we will keep an eye on it.”

When they walked out of the police station, Su Zipei and Mu Qiqi were very emotional. Nevertheless, Papa Mu would never get away with this time.

The police had issued an arrest warrant on Papa Mu.

Of course, Grandpa Mu was not going to cover his son for his crime anymore. He was so glad to offer his help to the police. But the police did not want to alert Papa Mu and make him run away again, so they did not inform Grandpa Mu about this.

Later, the police contacted Grandpa Shen so that they could question Mu Tangxue. They knew where she was thanks to the hint given by Su Zipei.

Since it was the Shen family, the police did not dare to be too reckless. But Grandpa Shen was very understanding and liberal. He said, “She was with me. Since the police need her, of course I will make her cooperate.”

Mu Tangxue did not expect that Papa Mu would be exposed so soon. When she saw the police, she was very nervous. However, she concealed her feelings very well. But she deliberately acted pitiful again in front of Grandpa Shen.

“Grandpa, I am very scared.”

“It’s alright. You just have to answer what the police ask honestly.”

In fact, Mu Tangxue was still considered a victim in this case. So she was summoned to the police station. Instead of being interrogated, she just had to help the police to clarify some doubts.

“Okay,” said Mu Tangxue reluctantly and pitifully.

After that, the police conducted an inquiry for half an hour at Mu Tangxue’s residence. However, the police obviously underestimated Mu Tangxue’s mentality.

She kept on saying that she did not know anything during the conversation. She also insisted that she could not save her mother because her door was locked.

And when she was asked for the details, she just cried.

With this, the police could not really get anything useful from her, more to say to find her fault.

Moreover, when being asked, she could explain clearly that her mother stayed over that night to take care of her after being physically abused by her father.

Her claim could not be verified now because Mama Mu was dead. So, they could not do anything about it.

“Thank you for your cooperation today. We will notify you of any news afterward.”

Mu Tangxue was scared to death. She sat on the couch, wailing.

When seeing her crying so hard, who would have the heart to ask more, or to suspect her?

“Grandpa, it was all my fault. I could not open the door.”

“Alright, it was not your fault. Get a good rest. The police were just trying to find out the truth,” said Grandpa Shen quickly to calm her down.

The truth?

There was never a truth. Before this, she had still thought that she was used by her father to take the blame for this case. But now, all the evidence pointed to him as the prime suspect. It could not be better than this.

Su Zipei and Mu Qiqi knew that Mu Tangxue would not be affected by this incident.

But even so, they still wanted to try.

“The police did not get anything just as predicted. Of course Mu Tangxue would insist that she was asleep and could not open the door. Now that there’sa witness to testify her claim, it is even easier for her to clear her name.”

Lu Wenhua visited Su Zipei and Mu Qiqi in the evening. It was when he entered the villa that Su Zipei received the news from the police.

Seeing their solemn faces, Lu Wenhua felt helpless.

“Why didn’t the fire burn Mu Tangxue to death? Why didn’t that scum think of burning Mu Tangxue altogether?”

Upon hearing Mu Qiqi, Su Zipei and Lu Wenhua looked at each other. They said, “Qiqi.”

“Aunt, Uncle Lu, I really mean it. If Mu Tangxue escapes this time, I will torture her with all my might in the future. No matter where and when.”

“You are the real lady of the Shen family. What is she? Do you think you will not have the chance to do so?” Then, Su Zipei said, “She is now having fun acting all pitifully. You will see if she can go through the Shen family’s door.”

“She is right, Qiqi. The time of her doom is yet to come. Now that the scum is wanted, Mu Tangxue will eventually let the cat out of the bag.”

And at the same time, Sheng Xiao sent her a message.

“Your grandfather wants to meet you. Do you want to meet him?”
