Luo Fei asked this, his tone low and ghostly.

His expression was icy.

That instantly made Bai Rongjun even more ashamed and uneasy.

"Mr. Luo, what exactly do you mean? I really don't understand."

It was obvious Bai Rongjun was a bit at a loss.

Luo Fei also spoke with utter seriousness.

"Mr. Bai, what I mean is, your father is the killer. He wanted to die together with your mother. Wanted to drag her down with him."

"But he didn't expect there would be a car crash. So they ran into an 'accident' halfway."

??

This kind of news.

Left Bai Rongjun stunned.

He practically couldn't believe his own ears.

"Mr. Luo, are you deliberately joking with me?"

"Of course not."

As Luo Fei spoke, he handed him a few faxed documents.

"We found several barrels of cooking oil in the trunk. And some tools. Those were obviously what your father prepared for the crime."

"And on one of the hammers, there was a lot of blood. That in itself pretty much explains the problem, doesn't it?"

Luo Fei's words.

Made Bai Rongjun's eyes instantly widen.

He simply couldn't believe his ears.

"How could this happen?"

"Why would my father go to such extremes?"

Hearing this, Luo Fei only shook his head with a cold sneer.

"Mr. Bai, isn't that an obvious thing? You still don't see it?"

As Luo Fei spoke he lifted his eyes, giving a slightly contemptuous look at Chen Meihong off to the side.

"Isn't it because of you?"

Chen Meihong's whole body jolted at his words.

Her face went deathly pale.

"Mr. Luo, I don't understand. Didn't Mr. Bai already say before that he was going to divorce Gu Nan?"

"It's not like I told him to do that."

"And besides, I never told him to hurt anyone. I'm completely being wronged here!"

Watching as Chen Meihong's eyes reddened.

Her face was full of disbelief.

Luo Fei merely smiled it off.

"Ms. Chen, even if you didn't take part in this. Even if you didn't personally lay hands on anyone, if he weren't caught between you and Gu Nan, I doubt Mr. Bai would have lost his head and done something stupid."

"So at the root of it, there's no way you can wash your hands of this completely. You have to bear a certain amount of responsibility."

As Luo Fei said this, he clearly noticed.

Although Bai Rongjun's face still showed lingering shock.

His emotions and micro‑expressions, however, were obviously like a load off his mind.

But.

This, to a certain extent, also confirmed Luo Fei's thinking.

Eight or nine times out of ten, Bai Rongjun had teamed up with Chen Meihong.

The two of them planned to deal with Bai Rongjun together.

So they came up with this trick.

As for what Luo Fei had just said on purpose, that was all just playing along with their act.

He only wanted to see how long these two intended to keep up the performance.

How much longer they could keep playing dumb in front of him.

Almost at the same time.

The corner of Luo Fei's mouth twitched.

At the same time his expression grew solemn as he said.

"You two, since what's happened has already happened, I hope you can restrain your grief and take things as they come."

"And speaking of it, Mr. Bai, you should be happy. After all, now that your father and mother have both had accidents, you can smoothly inherit your father's estate without any obstacles. And that villa he has in the suburbs. You ought to be very happy, shouldn't you?"

But when he caught the faintly disdainful glance Luo Fei threw his way.

Bai Rongjun was somewhat taken aback.

"Mr. Luo, what do you mean by that? Do you think my father's death has something to do with me? That I wanted to harm him just to inherit the family fortune??"

Hearing this, Luo Fei rubbed his temples.

"Bai Rongjun, I'm finding that your way of thinking really isn't the same as most people's."

"What I'm trying to remind you of is, don't repeat the same mistakes. Stop making the wrong decisions over and over."

Luo Fei spoke earnestly, still rubbing his temples.

It was obvious he was a bit conflicted.

Bai Rongjun suddenly felt a bit embarrassed as well.

"Mr. Luo, I'm sorry, that's really not what I meant."

Bai Rongjun was more than a little abashed.

A trace of helplessness surfaced on his face.

Luo Fei didn't make a big deal of it.

"Bai Rongjun, considering you're a patient, I won't hold it against you."

"What you just said, I'll pretend I never heard it."

As Luo Fei spoke he also instructed the officer beside him.

"In a bit, make sure you take statements from Young Master Bai and Ms. Chen. Confirm that they had nothing to do with the bad things Mr. Bai did."

"As for the rest, I won't ask any more. I don't want to delay you dealing with the aftermath."

Luo Fei sounded as if it were nothing.

But Li Yu, next to him, had a rather complicated expression.

Her feelings were also a mixed bag.

But to avoid giving anything away.

She still didn't open her mouth.

It wasn't until they left the major crimes unit.

And got in the car.

That she looked at Luo Fei somewhat helplessly.

"Mr. Luo, I don't get it, why weren't you angry at all? Are you really going to just watch this pair of murderers walk free?"

Seeing Li Yu so worked up.

Luo Fei only smiled and shook his head.

"Li Yu, didn't I just say? We need to cast a long line to catch a big fish. And the more we play hard to get with them, the less secure those two will feel." 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

"When it's time for us to close the net, it'll be that much easier."

Seeing Luo Fei so sure of himself.

As if he had planned this all along.

Li Yu couldn't help but feel impressed.

"So after all that, Mr. Luo, you'd already thought this through?"

Li Yu was genuinely a little shocked.

Because Luo Fei's acting just now had been too convincing.

It really gave people the sense that he'd already decided Mr. Bai himself was the killer.

And that he was a bit angry at Bai Rongjun for being such a disappointment.

But in fact, Luo Fei had long since made up his mind.

"This Bai Rongjun is very problematic, and that includes Chen Meihong. Their micro‑expressions just now, and those little movements. All classic signs of a guilty conscience."

Luo Fei was so certain.

That Li Yu finally understood.

"Oh, so after all that, Mr. Luo, you were actually playing hard to get just now?"
