Chapter 1995: The Mystery
Gu Zhiqi stared at the figure for a long time, something flashed in her mind, but it was too quick for her to catch.
Gu Zhiqi cupped her chin, thinking and thinking, but couldn’t make any sense of it.
"Did you find anything?" Su Yunling saw her deep in thought and asked.
Gu Zhiqi returned to her senses, turned to look at Su Yunling, and asked, "Have you investigated the Great Elder and the Third Elder?"
"Their recent movements, for example, contact with Xiao Yixue or with Ling Yilin and Ling Zhiyu."
"And is there any intersection between the two?"
Upon hearing the question, Su Yunling replied slowly, "Both are elders of the Immortal Medical Alliance, and they have a good relationship, with quite a lot of interactions. Just before their deaths, they often met up to drink and chat."
"As for their interactions with Xiao Yixue... since Xiao Yixue was imprisoned in the Law Enforcement Hall, the Third Elder hasn’t had any contact with her, but the Great Elder visited Xiao Yixue twice."
"Both times were after learning that Xiao Yixue was the murderer of Xu Changqing."
"Moreover... the second time, very shortly after Elder Seo saw Xiao Yixue, Xiao Yixue poisoned herself to death."
"As for the interactions between the two and Ling Yilin and Ling Zhiyu... Ling Yilin has interactions with both of them because, after all, he’s the Young Master of the Immortal Medical Alliance, and a lot of matters require discussion with them."
"Ling Zhiyu hasn’t had much interaction with the Great Elder. Since Xiao Yixue was imprisoned in the Law Enforcement Hall, they’ve only met twice. Once was when the Great Elder actively sought out Ling Zhiyu, seemingly to apologize for what happened in the past."
"And the other time was right before the Great Elder’s death."
"However, according to Ling Zhiyu, the one who went to her courtyard before the Great Elder’s death wasn’t her."
After listening to Su Yunling’s account, Gu Zhiqi asked, "Do neither of them have witnesses, as in alibi evidence?"
Su Yunling shook his head, "No."
Upon hearing this, Gu Zhiqi contemplated for two seconds and said, "It seems that the imposter is very familiar with their whereabouts."
After speaking, she raised her eyes to look at Su Yunling and asked again, "Is there anyone closely associated with Xiao Yixue?"
Considering Su Yunling’s suspicion about the matter being related to Xiao Yixue’s death, it might be good to investigate in that direction first.
Su Yunling: "When Xiao Yixue was still in the Immortal Medical Alliance, her closest relationships were with the Third Elder and her senior and junior sisters, besides, there were two more people."
"One is Lin Ruoxue, and the other is Shen Tingmeng."
While speaking, Su Yunling took a file from the side and handed it to Gu Zhiqi, "Their information is on it."
Upon receiving the file, Gu Zhiqi buried her head and began browsing through it.
She quickly went through the file, scanning ten lines at a glance, and finally paused on one of the pages.
Seeing this, Su Yunling glanced at the introduction on the file, with the words "Ling Muyan" boldly written on it.
Turning to look at Gu Zhiqi, he asked, "Do you suspect her?"
Gu Zhiqi nodded, "A little."
Upon hearing this, Su Yunling said, "I also suspected her, but she has an alibi."
"A witness."
Gu Zhiqi turned to Su Yunling and asked, "Who is the witness?"
Su Yunling moved closer to Gu Zhiqi, leaned towards her, and reached out to flip through the file, "Look, it’s her, Lin Ruoxue."
Due to Su Yunling’s sudden closeness, Gu Zhiqi was somewhat distracted.
Upon hearing his voice, Gu Zhiqi immediately regained her composure, lowered her head, and glanced, "Are she and Ling Muyan friends?"
Su Yunling: "Not quite close; they occasionally have tea together, all initiated by Lin Ruoxue."
