Chapter 96: Blood and Tears in the Marriage Photo
“Old Daoist.”

“Hey, boss, what's up?”

“Stop the car.”

“Oh, okay.”

After getting out of the car, Zhou Ze threw the cigarette butt on the ground and stepped on it.

“You go back first.”

“Huh?” The old Daoist priest was stunned. “Boss, I can wait for you to come out.”

“Go back.”

“It's okay, boss. I'm not afraid to wait…”

“Go back.”

Zhou Ze turned around and looked at the old Daoist.

The old daoist shivered in fear.

Tsk, tsk, tsk.

As expected, this bunch of people who had crawled out from hell were still the same in nature. The person before him who seemed rather friendly was actually just a disguise.

Disguise!

The old Daoist priest immediately saluted. “Alright, Boss. Call me when you need a car.”

The old Daoist priest drove off.

Zhou Ze stood at the entrance of the district for about fifteen minutes.

Previously, Tang Shi had told him that after the loli left Tong City, other than his own bookstore, there was another dark spot under the light.

However, there was something wrong with the lamp, so Tang Shi did not choose to hide there. Instead, she went to her room.

Tang Shi hinted that she could go there and take a look. Perhaps she might have an unexpected discovery or gain. She could take advantage of him while he was down.

Zhou Ze was afraid of trouble and did not go. He did not even ask in detail.

Because of this, Zhou Ze only found out from the old Daoist that the place under the light was actually Doctor Lin's neighborhood.

One by one, he drew a circle.

Even though those dots were gone, the circle was still formed.

His impression of Doctor Lin changed.

Doctor Lin kept the house he used to live in and bought it. He took care of it carefully.

Xu Le's identity.

Sleep in separate beds.

A real murder disguised as an accident.

He killed them one by one to destroy the evidence.

Actually, many details had pointed him in the right direction.

Including that day when she pretended to be a doctor and confessed to Dr. Lin after the surgery.

Doctor Lin hugged herself.

At that time, he only thought that everything was wonderful, so he did not notice that the lips of the face in his arms had begun to curve.

One hand.

It stirred the water, causing the fish in the water to start churning. In the end, the net fell, and the net closed.

People set up nets to catch fish, fish to eat fish.

The renovation of the house was for aesthetics, while aesthetics were for accommodation.

There was always a purpose to everything. Even if one just sat there in a daze, it was to enjoy the feeling of being free.

His previous death, his subsequent resurrection.

A new identity, a new family relationship.

In the end,

Who was the best?

The woman who had a crush on him had a husband that she did not like. She abided by the rules of etiquette and family.

She did not violate or break the rules, but under the rules, she successfully changed the husband that she did not like.

An outsider who had no idea, no idea, and was completely impossible to discover.

She lay on the bed with a clear conscience and continued to be the daughter of a wealthy family. She lived the life that her parents saw her as, but she was still doing some things for herself.

Many thoughts were disturbed.

It kept running around in Zhou Ze's mind, causing him to lose his sense of direction. In fact, at that moment, he was so confused that he could not even control himself.

If everything was really as he had guessed, and she was the one controlling the whole thing, how should he face her?

Was it anger, was it anger? She had killed him and ruined his life?

She was moved and helpless. After all, the more she did, the more it proved her feelings for him.

Previously, Zhou Ze could have whipped Xu Dachuan without any pressure, but now, Zhou Ze did not have the heart to pick up the branch on the ground and rush into the Lin residence.

Man was a complicated creature like this. He was not a robot, and he only needed to follow a certain program to create his own choice.

15 minutes of hesitation, 15 minutes of hesitation…

Finally,

Zhou Ze still strode into the district.

Some things needed to be said clearly, and some things needed to be said openly.

This is me.

Give yourself an explanation.

To give herself an explanation from her previous life.

It was rare to be confused.

It did not apply here.

Dong dong dong…

He knocked on the door.

Actually, Zhou Ze had the house key, but it was not with him. He had not returned to the Lin family for a long time.

“Coming.”

Aunty's voice came from inside. She opened the door and saw Zhou Ze.

“Xu Le, your uncle left?”

“Yeah, let's go.”

I beat him away.

“Oh.” Her sister-in-law had not opened the door fully.

Seeing that Zhou Ze was not leaving, she said in surprise,

“You want to come in?”

Zhou Ze did not move.

The sister-in-law stuck out her tongue. Zhou Ze had not been home for a long time. She was not mentally prepared for him to suddenly come back, but Zhou Ze was still her brother-in-law. She opened the door immediately.

Zhou Ze walked in and sat down on the sofa in the living room.

Her sister-in-law brought Zhou Ze a bottle of orange juice and an ashtray. Her relationship with Zhou Ze had been pretty good recently. Because Zhou Ze often covered for her and let her go out to play, her attitude towards him at home had changed drastically.

“Where's your sister?”

“I just went out to buy groceries. My parents went out yesterday. The child of an old friend from another province got married and went to support them. Speaking of which, your uncle just sat at my door and really scared me.

Especially when he said that he would send you to jail. Tsk tsk, Xu Le, why are all your relatives so weird? ”

Her sister-in-law sat on the sofa opposite her and switched on the television. Her legs were propped up on the coffee table. She did not look like she was sitting or standing.

Compared to Doctor Lin's natural and graceful manner, they really did not look like sisters.

Really,

It didn't look like it.

“Hey, Xu Le, you haven't answered me yet. Do you have something on your uncle? Is he here to ask for money?”

Xu Le was the Lin family's son-in-law, so the Lin family naturally did not have a good impression of Xu Le's relatives. After all, Xu Le's money had been given by the Lin family.

“I'm fine.”

Zhou Ze lit another cigarette and prepared to wait for Doctor Lin to return.

“Are you really fine?” Her sister-in-law looked at Zhou Ze.

“You're so annoying.”

Hearing this, her youngest sister-in-law's mouth swelled and she snorted in dissatisfaction.

She felt that Xu Le was becoming more and more presumptuous, but seeing that she still needed him to cover for her and go out to play in the future, she decided not to argue with him.

A cigarette was placed on the ashtray as Zhou Ze watched it slowly burn out.

The smoke curled up and dispersed.

Right at this moment…

The door opened, and Zhou Ze stood up.

Dr. Lin returned with some groceries. She had her hair braided. She was on leave today, so she looked refreshed.

She was a little surprised that Zhou Ze was at home.

“Sis, you're cooking today.” Little sister-in-law held a pillow and looked at the television as she playfully pointed at Zhou Ze.

“Have you eaten?” Doctor Lin asked Zhou Ze.

Zhou Ze shook his head. “No.”

“Then, wait a minute. I'll go prepare dinner.” Doctor Lin seemed to be trying to maintain a calm relationship before she walked into the kitchen.

Zhou Ze stood rooted to the ground, momentarily at a loss.

His heart was in a mess.

“Hey, what are you waiting for? Go help.”

Her sister-in-law kicked Zhou Ze's leg lightly.

He did not cherish such a good opportunity to improve their relationship and just stood there like a fool. What a poor EQ.

Little sister-in-law felt that her brother-in-law was far worse than the boys who chased after her in school. He was simply a blockhead.

In the end, Zhou Ze walked into the kitchen.

In the kitchen, Doctor Lin had already put on an apron and was cutting vegetables.

“It's okay. I can do it myself. Go watch TV with Xiao Yi,” Doctor Lin said to Zhou Ze.

“There's something I want to ask you,” Zhou Ze said to Doctor Lin.

“Hmm?” Doctor Lin raised his head in surprise. “Then I'll ask you after I'm done with this meal. I don't want to be distracted. Actually, I rarely cook, so I'm afraid it won't be to your liking.”

Looking at her carefully cutting the vegetables, Zhou Ze suddenly felt that there were some things that he could not ask.

“I'll go back to my room first. Come up later.”

“Okay. When I'm done cooking, I'll go up and call you down for dinner.”

Zhou Ze walked out of the kitchen and went up to the second floor under his sister-in-law's surprised gaze.

Pushing open the bedroom door, Zhou Ze saw the large bed. He had slept on that bed before, and at that time, Doctor Lin had slept on the mattress under the bed.

Actually, he did not really care much about this place.

Lifting his head, he saw the wedding photo hanging on the wall.

In the wedding photo,

The two in the wedding dress were a little far apart. The woman was demure, and the man was shy and reserved. It was Doctor Lin and Xu Le's wedding photo.

A wedding photo could already tell a lot of things.

And now…

With the man's face in the wedding photo.

It was him.

Zhou Ze kept staring at the wedding photo.

If this whole thing, including the process of the murder, had been instigated by Doctor Lin, and he had watched the whole process from the top, he would have understood everything.

Then,

The previous Xu Le…

Xu Le, who used to sleep alone on this bed every night,

What kind of character was he?

It was like a dough, and this dough had finally stirred up a rarely seen madness and courage.

In the end…

His wife had seen everything he did and treated him like a puppet.

She watched him walk forward.

In the end, she even cleaned the traces herself.

Those who deserved to die were all dead.

Xu Le was also dead.

Moreover…

Even his body had been swept clean.

Just to welcome the arrival of a soul that he admired.

At this moment, his gaze seemed to be in a trance.

Zhou Ze seemed to have seen it.

In the bedside wedding photo,

In Xu Le's eyes,

There were two streams of blood tears.

It slowly dripped down…
