Why Did You Provoke Her? She Can Tell Fortunes!-Chapter 115 - 88: Could She Be a Murderer?

Wen Xu placed the roughly written report on the table and slowly began, "The deceased had multiple obvious constraint and resistance injuries on her body. The acrylic nails on her right hand’s middle and ring fingers were missing more than half, leaving the flesh underneath exposed. This indicates that she desperately resisted when confronted by the killer across from her, but failed due to a disparity in strength."

The female officers present all frowned simultaneously.

Even though they couldn’t get manicures due to their work.

They occasionally experienced short nail splits themselves.

The injury wasn’t significant, but the pain was unpleasantly memorable.

So hearing about the deceased’s struggle to this extent, they all showed expressions of sympathy.

Only girls could truly empathize with this.

There was no pretended resistance, no charade of ’playing hard to get’; she must have exerted a life-or-death effort at the time.

At this point, in everyone’s hearts, Hu Chi’s three hypotheses were entirely dismissed.

"Of course, although there was a struggle, it doesn’t prove that they weren’t lovers beforehand," Wen Xu shifted the topic, "The most crucial thing is, I discovered during the examination..."

The crowd: ???

"Before this, she had not been involved with anyone."

The crowd: !!! 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

Even though they knew Hu Chi’s speculation was impossible, this information still hit them hard.

A woman criticized by all the neighbors, someone who maintained connections with multiple people through chat apps, turned out to have this identity?

A scene almost formed in Wen Xu’s mind.

How the deceased resisted against that cruel killer but was ultimately provoked to death.

"The deceased’s cause of death was asphyxiation."

She was strangled to death.

"Even after death, the perpetrator’s assault on her did not cease."

Everyone felt a surge of unexplainable anger.

After the meeting ended, everyone had unpleasant expressions.

Anger and grief combined. Anger at the perpetrator’s heinous actions, and sorrow for what the deceased endured.

Besides capturing the killer, there was another very important matter facing them.

"What about the victim’s family..."

Zhou Zhicheng’s gaze flickered with a hint of sympathy, and he sighed.

"Let’s handle it according to procedure."

Before that officer left, he thought of something else and advised, "Handle this case discreetly, and inform those reporters not to allow the public’s rumors and gossip to cause a second harm to the victim."

If matters related to the victim were exposed online, they would undoubtedly be misinterpreted by people with prejudiced views.

However.

The more people fear something, the more likely it is to occur.

Almost as soon as the meeting concluded, news about Zhu Hong began to spread everywhere.

Initially, it was unclear who had first posted the news online about the broadcaster’s death. Then someone claiming to be her neighbor appeared.

Not only did they say she normally maintained improper relationships with many men, but she also frequently flaunted herself in front of other men’s homes.

As a result, now she’s dead, murdered.

The most common narrative online was that she deceived other men of money and affection, leading to one killing her out of intense anger.

There were many spreading salacious rumors, with some even saying she deserved it.

This supposedly confirmed an earlier tale of a ’righteous’ streamer exposing Zhu Hong’s overly sexual content online, resulting in her getting suspended and penalized.

That streamer swiftly gained followers, going from a little over a thousand to several tens of thousands.

Yet at this moment, the primary figure didn’t have time to pay attention to this, as her trembling pupils stared unblinkingly at the left side of the screen at Mu Yunchu.

She subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

This uneasy reaction, the netizens couldn’t possibly miss it.

[Did the streamer just say that this fated person has a death on her hands?]

[Could she be a murderer???]

[No way, is this really that serious?]

[But I see that this fated person’s reaction is indeed off. Generally, when my secret is discovered by others, I’m in this state.]

[Feels like it’s not as simple as just killing someone, maybe some people died because of her actions.]

...

Seeing this comment, Xia Ling’s hand shook, and she dropped the phone directly onto the bed.

Her beauty filter also vanished.

Although Xia Ling quickly regained her composure and put the beauty filter back on, even that brief 0.5 second was enough for Mu Yunchu to see clearly.

It strengthened her previous thought.

Furthermore, after seeing exactly what happened, her eyes turned increasingly cold.

It was like she become a completely different person from just now.

[This time I am certain, the streamer is definitely angry.]

[What on earth happened, she seems never to have been this angry before.]

[Since the streamer said so, I suggest investigating this further.]

As the speculation grew, Xia Ling also gradually recovered from the earlier shock.

In her mind, she kept brainwashing herself.

Mu Yunchu couldn’t possibly know about what she did.

Even if she did know, so what? That matter had nothing to do with her.

It was the other party’s wrongdoing to begin with.

Yes, that’s right.

It had nothing to do with her.

After calming down a bit, she glared at Mu Yunchu and shouted, "Stop talking nonsense here!? What evidence do you have? Do you know you are slandering me in front of so many people? I can completely sue you for defamation!"

"The people in this live-stream are my witnesses!"

Mu Yunchu showed no change in expression at her threat.

Her cool tone held a subtle hint of anger.

"Is that so?"

"Then you deliberately induce streamers in the live broadcast room to do some inappropriate actions, and then report them to get their accounts suspended — is that also false?"

[What what? Reporting streamers to get their accounts suspended? How wicked is this person!]

[As a small-time streamer myself, I really know how malicious such an act is.]

[Suddenly remembered, this account seems familiar. I think it appeared in a dance live-stream I used to follow, but not long after, that stream was stopped, and I haven’t seen her since.]

This left Xia Ling utterly dumbfounded.

No one else should know about what she did.

Even the platform shouldn’t have any dirt on her.

So how did Mu Yunchu know?

Could she really predict things?

During her stupor, Mu Yunchu mentioned many things about her past.

"During your school days, you frequently tattled, which led to you being isolated by classmates, and thus you bore a grudge against them, sabotaging everything they did behind their backs."

"You believed it was because others looked down on you."

Mu Yunchu stated these facts mercilessly.

From these words, it was clear that her character issues started from a young age.

"In high school, you didn’t want to continue schooling and threatened your parents with jumping off a building or running away to get them to let you drop out."

"And that’s not all, in their final days, you lived at home off of them... and you still do to this day."

...

Xia Ling was genuinely terrified.

Her initial reaction was to terminate the video connection.

But after trying several times, the screen remained unresponsive.

At this moment, Mu Yunchu’s voice seemed ghostly to her.

"Trying to leave?"
