Chapter 1218: Chapter 1237: Missed

"Eh! You can walk now?" Ying Jiuming exclaimed in surprise.

Wei Qin’s dark eyelashes trembled slightly as he said with a clear and elegant voice, "I want to reiterate that I am not disabled." Why does everyone look at him walking as if seeing a disabled person?

"I didn’t mean that." Ying Jiuming felt that he had encountered nothing but weirdos today.

Not a single normal one; forget it, he can’t be bothered anyway since Wei Qin was originally not familiar to him, and they rarely interacted. Since he appeared uninterested in talking, Jiuming couldn’t be bothered to engage him either.

Ying Jiuming directed his thoughts towards Jiang Yang, softly consoling, "I came to talk to you about your second sister’s matter."

"What happened to her now?"

"Your second sister has been away and not returning home is one thing, but now that your elder sister is hospitalized, she should come back."

A hint of scorn raised on the young boy’s face, "Does she dare to come back?"

"You know that even if you accused her of pushing you into the river, we cannot convict her." Ying Jiuming scratched his head in frustration, "So if she does come back, we can’t do anything to her, and I think your elder sister definitely would want to talk to her."

"Pushing me into the river may not be enough to convict, but for killing Sun Lu, He Jinlan can be."

Jiang Yang’s words made Ying Jiuming gasp sharply, staring at him in shock. Even the usually silent Wei Qin lifted his eyes, his gaze intensely fixed on Jiang Yang.

Jiang Yang’s expression remained calm, and even his eyelashes didn’t flutter.

"Do... do you have evidence?" Although they also had suspicions, they hadn’t been able to find any evidence, and questioning Liu Yongxia in prison last week didn’t overturn her previous statement.

"Gathering evidence is the police’s job."

Ying Jiuming gave an embarrassed smile, "But you’re now our police consultant!"

Jiang Yang looked at Ying Jiuming with a strange gaze, pausing before saying, "As long as my cousin Jiang Hui is alive, Liu Yongxia won’t dare change her statement. And even if she does change it, it can’t be used as evidence because she is a suspect herself, and now she’s mentally unstable."

Jiang Yang’s gaze was heavy as he looked at Ying Jiuming, "You’ve found out about He Jinlan’s death, haven’t you?"

"How did you know?"

Wei Qin touched his forehead, not wanting to see Ying Jiuming make a fool of himself.

Jiang Yang shot a glance at him and sighed, "Does the evidence point to Jing Tong?"

"That’s right!"

"Then it seems that there’s no way out. We’ve missed the best timing. Now with Jing Tong dead, there’s no one to counter the evidence." Jiang Yang lowered his head, seated himself on a chair and propped his chin with his small hands. "I’m now truly impressed by my second sister." Her tactics were indeed clever.

So many police officers couldn’t catch her even by the tail; it truly was flawless.

And it’s only just begun. She’s still young, what about the future? What will happen then?

"Without evidence, anything we say is useless; it’s all just your speculation." Ying Jiuming ran his hands through his hair in irritation, "Right now, the higher-ups are demanding a close to the case."

"Close the case then!" They can’t find any more evidence.

As the two were speaking in the corridor, the door to Sister Nan Fei’s sickroom opened from the inside, and Nan Fei, who had changed into clean clothes, emerged from the room. Jiang Yang’s eyes brightened immediately, and he approached her.

"Sister Nan Fei, are you feeling better?"

"I’m fine." Nan Fei ruffled Jiang Yang’s hair, her expression already recovered; if one hadn’t witnessed it, nobody would believe that just an hour before she was in so much pain that she nearly passed out.

"That’s good." Jiang Yang took Nan Fei’s hand proactively, "So, are you going home?"
