Chapter 625: Chapter 625: Ancestor Asks Captain Song for Help

Shen Miao was silent for a moment, "I know, I also got the message, but he’s already dead, what’s the use of calling me?"

Shang Junxiao almost snorted coldly, he almost wanted to crawl through the phone line to slap Shen Miao.

But he couldn’t.

Shang Junxiao was restraining himself with all his might, "Ning Mu is dead, but the aftermath still needs to be dealt with! He didn’t have many friends here, just you and me, don’t you want to help him with the aftermath, let him leave with some dignity?"

Shen Miao seemed to find it difficult to refuse, his voice even more weary, "What do you want to do?"

Shang Junxiao looked at Jiangli.

Jiangli made a gesture to him, signaling him to speak as previously discussed.

Shang Junxiao recalled what Jiangli had said before and spoke, "I, I don’t understand these things, I have never dealt with such matters, I’m calling you because I want to hear your thoughts. Shen Miao, you were at least friends with him, I remember before Ning Mu died, you two were quite close, right? You wouldn’t just stand by and do nothing now, would you?"

Shang Junxiao was still young and was somewhat unable to control his temper, his words loaded with veiled criticism.

Shen Miao thought he was complaining about his neglect of Ning Mu’s aftermath and responded, "I don’t understand much of this either, but I certainly want Ning Mu to leave with glory. But aren’t the police still investigating? What can we do?"

"I don’t know either, how about we meet up and talk about it?" Shang Junxiao took a breath and said, "Are you at home now, or somewhere else? I’ll come to find you?"

Shen Miao did not refuse, "Mhm, I’m at home. I’ll send you the location, come find me."

Shang Junxiao acknowledged with an okay. Before hanging up the phone, he suddenly said, "The police should have almost finished their investigation. There’s said to be no suspicious traces at the scene, the possibility of suicide is very high. Shen Miao, how could such a good person like Ning Mu suddenly commit suicide?"

Shen Miao was silent for a moment, then said, "Yeah, such a good person, how could he come to this end..."

Hearing this, Shang Junxiao felt a tightness in his chest, burning with anger, unwilling to exchange another word with Shen Miao.

Fearing he would lose control of his temper and give himself away, he decisively hung up the phone.

Shen Miao thought he was angry about the matter with Ning Mu and didn’t give it much thought.

He sat at home, where the lights were off, feeling confused and dazed as if he himself had died once.

...

Shang Junxiao soon received the location Shen Miao sent over.

Seeing the address, Shang Junxiao laughed out of anger, "Xihua Garden... How nice, Ning Mu lived in such a place. He lives in Xihua Garden and still wanted to kill Ning Mu, how could he bear it!"

Xihua Garden was considered a rich district in the newly planned area, and due to the better security, almost everyone in the circle preferred to live there.

Shang Junxiao had heard from Ning Mu that Shen Miao had now signed with a new company. Because of his good looks and strong business capabilities, he was quite favored.

Shang Junxiao took another look at the Xihua Garden address and thought, indeed quite favored.

Already moved to Xihua Garden, that was no ordinary favor.

Jiangli and Xia Xin looked at Shang Junxiao but said nothing.

Jiangli couldn’t be bothered to speak.

Xia Xin didn’t know how to comfort Shang Junxiao.

Fu Shiyan remained silent, quickly changing course to head towards Xihua Garden.

Ning Mu’s home was in the urban-rural fringe, while Shen Miao’s home was in the city center’s new Xihua Garden, the distance between them vast, as disparate as heaven and earth.

More than an hour later, several people arrived at Shen Miao’s home.

The car stopped below the apartment building where Shen Miao lived.

Before getting out of the car, Jiangli instructed Shang Junxiao, "Later, Mr. Shang, you go in alone and just make it look like casual conversation with Shen Miao."

After speaking, she then said to Xia Xin, "Call the police, have Captain Song come over."
