Chapter 160
Su Yuqing in a panic!
"Hello...
" Su Yuqing's voice trembled slightly when she answered the phone.
Because she was afraid that her guess would come true.
But when I answered the phone, my mother's voice sounded very normal.
Is that Yuqing?
Upon hearing this address, Su Yuqing knew that the person on the phone was her mother in her usual state.
“It’s me, Mom,” she replied, her voice still trembling.
"How are you doing at Chen Mo's house?
" Li Fengzhi asked first about her daughter's recent situation.
Previously, she only knew what Chen Mo had said; she wanted to hear what her daughter had to say herself.
"It's fine," Su Yuqing replied calmly.
"Chen Mo didn't bully you, did he?
" Li Fengzhi asked directly.
"How could that be...
" Su Yuqing said, stealing a glance at Chen Mo.
Seeing that Chen Mo wasn't looking at her while she was on the phone, she took a small step back and whispered, "He's so good to me.
"Hearing her daughter's somewhat shy voice, Li Fengzhi could somewhat sense Su Yuqing's feelings for Chen Mo.
You can also tell that the boy didn't bully his daughter.
She felt much relieved and began to organize her thoughts to talk about what would happen that night.
"That's good.
" Li Fengzhi replied, then suddenly fell silent.
After listening for a while, Su Yuqing curiously picked up the phone and looked at it, thinking that her mother had already hung up.
But seeing that the call was still connected, she put the phone back to her ear and asked curiously, "Mom, is there something you need on the phone?
"Seeing that her mother suddenly stopped talking, Su Yuqing immediately asked curiously.
By this time, her panicked mood had calmed down considerably, because judging from her mother's tone and condition, it didn't seem like she was having an attack of her illness and wanted to force herself to go back.
Considering her mother's condition, Su Yuqing was actually quite worried that her mother's relapse might get out of control and cause her to do something to harm herself.
“Um…” Li Fengzhi hesitated for a moment before finally speaking, “Regarding tonight’s events, your Uncle Li Gang would like to apologize to Chen Mo on behalf of Uncle Li Tie.
”Li Tie's attempted murder is now a serious matter.
However, if Li Tie's attempted murder failed, the victim was not injured, the victim forgave him, and he actively admitted his mistake, accepted punishment, and made compensation, then his culpability would be greatly reduced.
Even though Li Tie made mistakes, Li Gang was still his brother.
He couldn't stand by and watch his brother's reputation be ruined.
After all, his younger brother's factory was doing well, and if he continued to work diligently, finding a wife through a matchmaker wouldn't be a problem.
Now, because of his abnormal views on love, he has ended up in this predicament, which is heartbreaking for him.
He would rather send his younger brother to the hospital to treat his mental health issues than have his brother go to jail and never get out.
"Uncle Li Tie?
" Su Yuqing was completely stunned when she heard her mother's words.
Because Li Tie and Chen Mo are two completely unrelated people who seem to have nothing in common.
How did these two end up together?
Suddenly, Su Yuqing remembered that Chen Mo had talked to her about Li Tie after school that afternoon.
At the time, she wondered why Chen Mo would suddenly care about someone he had basically no connection with.
It now seems that the two had some kind of conflict somewhere.
She immediately asked her mother curiously, "What happened?
"“Yes, your Uncle Li Tie went to Chen Mo’s house last night…” Li Fengzhi paused and said, “He almost stabbed Chen Mo to death with a knife.
”"Ah!?
" Su Yuqing was struck dumb upon hearing this, and immediately froze on the spot.
The next moment, she didn't care about anything else and hurriedly ran forward in a panic, catching up with Chen Mo, who had deliberately taken a few steps ahead of her.
Hearing footsteps behind him, Chen Mo was about to turn around when he felt a fragrant breeze enter his nostrils.
The next moment, his hands were grabbed by Su Yuqing.
She frantically but carefully began to examine Chen Mo's injuries.
Seeing that he wasn't injured, she immediately looked at Chen Mo's exposed collarbone, neck, and head.
After seeing that he was unharmed, she even boldly lifted Chen Mo's clothes to examine his body.
"Yuqing, what are you doing?
" Seeing the surprised looks from many people around him, even though Chen Mo was thick-skinned, he couldn't help but blush and quickly grabbed Su Yuqing's small hands to stop her from groping him.
Only then did Su Yuqing realize that she had overreacted.
She said, still shaken, "Mom just called and said...
that you almost got stabbed by Uncle Li Tie...
"Su Yuqing simply couldn't bring herself to say the word "death"; she couldn't imagine the scene.
"Silly girl, I've come all the way to pick you up from school, so I'm sure everything's alright.
Don't worry.
"Chen Mo smiled and ruffled Su Yuqing's hair.
Upon careful consideration, Su Yuqing realized that this made perfect sense and felt relieved.
Only then did Su Yuqing pick up the phone again, only to find that her mother had already hung up.
Seeing this, Su Yuqing put away her phone and looked at Chen Mo nervously: "What exactly happened?
Why would Uncle Li Tie suddenly want to hurt you?
"Su Yuqing recalled the Uncle Li Tie in her memory; he was clearly a very kind, friendly, and approachable adult.
He was so kind to me and Li Mingyu, always smiling, and didn't seem to have any of the airs of an adult.
Being with him is very comfortable.
Why would such a good person suddenly become a perpetrator?
Su Yuqing was completely baffled.
It can only be said that she has far too little understanding of the evil in human nature.
After becoming a criminal police officer, Chen Mo has witnessed too many bizarre cases and reasons for crimes.
When he used to watch Detective Conan, he thought the reasons many of the criminals had for committing crimes were just bizarre, wondering how such people could exist in real life.
But after becoming a criminal investigator and handling or hearing about numerous cases, he realized that reality is far more fantastical and bizarre than fictional works.
Almost any small problem can become a reason for committing a crime.
The most outrageous case he ever handled involved someone glancing at a passerby on the street.
He didn't even look at it intentionally; he just glanced in that direction.
As they passed each other, the man was stabbed by the other man.
The person involved didn't even realize they had been stabbed.
He didn't realize that his femoral artery had been stabbed until he took a few steps forward and felt that his pants were wet.
His friend immediately called for emergency medical assistance, but ultimately they could not save him.
Even his friends didn't realize at the time that his injury was caused by the person who had just brushed past them.
Reality is just that absurd.
Therefore, Chen Mo was able to take any criminal's reasons for committing crimes with a calm mind, which is why he was able to suspect everyone he saw on the night he returned.
