The Side Character's Hidden Boss! - Chapter 273 - Captured Again

Chapter 273: Captured Again

Mo Li looked at Yu Xuan’s face seriously and said, “Miss Yu, why do you hide the fact that you’re a twin? If you ask me, I believe it is related to your motive for killing Dong Yun.”

“Wait, could it be…” Xiao Rui remembered something, “Due to the traditional mindset of favoring boys over girls, even during the period of One Child Policy, many parents tried for a second child when they realized their first child was a girl.”

“And to evade the punishment by the government, many parents have done crazy things to hide the existence of the first child…” Kang Zhi had heard many unbelievable things himself.

“So Miss Yu, you not only have a twin, you have another sibling.” Mo Li continued, “The girl that we saw with myopia is Yu A while the girl who fired Zhao Jing was Yu B. Yu B has a normal eyesight. I believe you have swapped out the oxygen in the tanks for helium. Helium can be easily bought on the internet, they are used for balloons. Yu B came to the company and waited for Dong Yun to arrive. And then Yu B set up the mechanism to stop the elevator from being used. At the same time, Yu A went to Huan Yu and had a chance encounter with Kang Zhi. That was how you managed to appear at both places at the same time.”

Based on Mo Li’s prediction, Yu B killed Dong Yu after she gave him a session of tampered oxygen shot. While Yu B cut off Dong Yun’s eyes, Yu A walked around the building, appearing in meetings to create an ironclad alibi. Since there was no surveillance camera inside Dong Yun’s office, no one would suspect Yu B was actually inside the office.

Yu Xuan smiled. “You people are funny. I don’t know what you’re talking about. I have no twin.”

“The evidence will tell us the truth.” Mo Li smiled. “Since we already have a specific target, it is only a matter of time until we find the trace of your twin.”

“Leave the rest to me.” Xiao Rui hijacked the conversation. Since the killer was caught, they didn’t need Mo Li anymore.

To Xiao Rui’s surprise, Mo Li took out her phone and questioned Yu Xuan, “What is the relationship between Zhao Jing, Pink Rabbit and Huan Yu? Why did you kill Dong Yun? What were you doing that day at Huan Yu?”

Yu Xuan raised her eyes to look at Mo Li. Her gaze was sharp. It even frightened Mo Li. Yu Xuan’s eyes were filled with resentment and a feeling Mo Li couldn’t described. Mo Li felt like things were not that simple. My picture is found inside Dong Yun’s drawer. And that Zhao Jing… I believe I saw her name and picture among Huan Yu’s list of rookie artist training list. But I have no idea why she didn’t join Huan Yu afterwards. Lastly, Pink Rabbit… She is a star on the rise. But suddenly she became pregnant and killed herself? None of these make sense!

“Are you sure this case is over?” Mo Li turned to Xiao Rui. “Could Dong Yun’s death be related to Pink…”

“You are invited to the team as a coroner’s consultant. Pink Rabbit’s death has been ruled as a suicide. We have also found Dong Yun’s murderer. The case is closed. If you have the time, you should go and visit your brother at the hospital.” Xiao Rui clearly wanted to end the subject.

Mo Li frowned. As they left the interrogation room, Xiao Rui patted Mo Li on her shoulder before he left.

Yesterday night, Xiao Rui received an order from Chief Li to close Dong Yun’s case as soon as possible. Other than that, the higher up also didn’t want them to look further into Pink Rabbit’s case. The key evidence had been destroyed and her death was ruled as a suicide.

Mo Li frowned. Huan Yu still hadn’t released a statement about Pink Rabbit’s death, it was like she was not even part of the company. Plus how Xiao Rui acted made Mo Li feel like he knew something but he was not telling her.

Mo Li was leaving the station when she received a call from Lu Xuan. “Teacher, your second brother has been taken away from the hospital! I was busy today so I have a nurse give him a nutritional injection on my behalf. However, the nurse told me that another doctor has taken over your brother’s case and they have arranged to send him to a rehabilitation centre.”

Mo Li’s heart chilled immediately when she heard that. Based on known information, it was a branch of Flower Appraisal who targeted Mo Xiao.

With trembling hands, Mo Li dialed a number. Mo Xiao’s life hung in the balance. She needed as much help as she could get.

As she was about to make the call, Nie Li’s call came in.

Mo Li turned to the cab driver. “I’m sorry but can you bring me to Huan Yu Entertainment?”
