Eight Fresh Soup

Chapter 18 Suicide (1)
Zhao Yanshu committed suicide.

At that time, Moran was enjoying a hearty vegetable lunch at home. Every Friday was her vegetarian day. In order to allow herself to adapt to these light vegetarian meals without salt, sugar and oil, she always tried her best to make them The food is more delicious and varied.When Gao Jing called, she had just wrapped a piece of lettuce and mushroom wrap for herself, and before she had time to stuff it into her mouth, she heard the bad news.So she quickly put down the lettuce wrap and hurried to the hospital.

"How is she?" Moran asked anxiously when he met Gao Jing in the corridor.

"I just had my stomach washed." Gao Jing replied briefly.

Gao Jing told her that Zhao Yanshu chose to take poison after being interrogated by the police.After she came out of the police station, she didn't go directly back to the unit, but walked in the opposite direction.After walking aimlessly on the street for about an hour, she went to a convenience store to buy a bottle of insecticide, stuffed it in her bag, and then went to a hotel room, where she drank the insecticide.But maybe it was because the taste of the insecticide was really bad, or because she was afraid, she only drank half of it and vomited it out. At this time, the police arrived just in time and sent her to the hospital in time.

"The police just arrived? Are you following her?" Moran had an insight into the mystery in Gao Jing's words.

Gao Jing did not deny it.

"Why did you follow her? You must have forced her into a corner, so she would do such a stupid thing!" Moran said a little excitedly.Although she also had doubts about Zhao Yanshu, she still felt very uncomfortable seeing her good friend receiving special care from the police.What's more, Zhao Yanshu was very timid in the first place, so she must have been terrified when she saw the police force.

Gao Jing ignored her anger.

"We found out that she is Liao Yongli's lover." He said indifferently.

Moran was dumbfounded, she knew that Gao Jing would not easily express his opinion without solid evidence.

"You caught her?" Moran tried to restrain his emotions and asked calmly.

Gao Jing's eyes drifted back and forth in the empty corridor, but he just didn't look at her. This was his way to make himself appear unpredictable.Of course, it might be because they didn't dare to look at her, Moran thought, because they just experienced the thrilling lip balm incident yesterday.

"When we investigated Liao Yongli, we found that she would book a room with Liao Yongli once or twice a month in a hotel on Haihe Road, not many times, but quite regularly, and always in the same hotel, so although she They all wore sunglasses when they went there, but the room attendants and the front desk all recognized her by coincidence. In fact, they had seen her just a few days before the accident. Although the hotel was far away from where she worked, The transportation is very convenient, it only takes 10 minutes to take the subway, and she almost always goes there between 2:5 pm and [-]:[-] pm, which happens to be the lunch break time of the restaurant, and Liao Yongli probably happens to be quite empty, besides her Work is already very easy." He said in a business-like tone, still deliberately avoiding her.

Sure enough, Jiang Rongxi guessed right, the hotel on Haihe Road was next to the cafe she mentioned.

"Did she admit it herself?" Moran asked deflatedly.

"She denies it. But we have evidence, and it's useless for her to deny it." Gao Jing finally glanced at her, his eyes were a little melancholy, and then moved away immediately. He was still looking at the end of the corridor, as if Moran was standing there instead of next to him.

But Moran didn't have time to pay attention to his subtle eyes right now, she was only thinking about the situation of her good friend.

"You think she might be the murderer?" Moran asked in a low voice.

"possible."

"Then what did you call me for?" she asked.

"She refused to speak. I originally wanted to find a policewoman to enlighten her, but after thinking about it, I think you are more suitable."

"Because I'm her friend? What else do you want to get out of her? Don't you already have evidence?" Moran didn't want to be Gao Jing's thug, and she didn't want to sell friends for glory.

He glanced at her quickly, as if she were a mosquito flying past his eyelids.

"Now I can only prove that she is his lover, but not the murderer, so I want to learn more from her, but judging by her emotions now, I guess she won't tell us anything, so I thought of you. Aren't you her good friend?" he said calmly.

"You're using me, Gao Jing." Moran said coldly.

"I think you'd really like to know the answer too. Don't you?" He looked back at her, serious this time.

It's really not easy to hide from a friend who has known her for 11 years, Moran thought, and being guessed again, she really wanted to know the answer.

"Okay, I'll try." She nodded, with some reluctance, and finally walked into Zhao Yanshu's ward under the guidance of a policewoman.

Zhao Yanshu was lying on the innermost hospital bed with dull eyes.

"Mo Lan..." Seeing her coming in, Zhao Yanshu immediately opened her eyes wide and called her name as if asking for help.

Mo Lan hurried to Zhao Yanshu's side, and she found that Zhao Yanshu had become haggard and weak after not seeing her for a few days, her face was pale, and wet tears were still condensed on her cheeks.

"What did you do? Why do you do such a stupid thing?" Mo Lan reproached softly, while gently brushing Zhao Yanshu's hair, which was hanging wet on half of her face.

"I don't know, I don't know..." Zhao Yanshu sobbed.

"Did you really have that kind of thing with Liao Yongli?" Moran asked cautiously.

"I'm so stupid, Moran, I'm so stupid," she sobbed.Moran felt that this was almost an admission of everything.Alas, Yong Li, you are such an energetic man, Moran sighed bitterly in his heart.

"I really can't believe it." Mo Lan asked Zhao Yanshu softly, "What's going on, Yanshu? When did you start getting better?"

Zhao Yanshu didn't speak, but shed tears silently.

"Tell me, Yan Shu."

"Mo Lan, I'm so stupid." Zhao Yanshu said again.

"It's not because you are stupid, but because he is too flamboyant and mean. He must have seduced you." Moran wanted to relieve her psychological pressure.

Zhao Yanshu was silent for a while, and finally spoke vaguely.

"We met on the road once, and then he called me often, and I was too embarrassed to refuse, he was so... funny, always told a lot of jokes, and made me so happy... You know my husband How boring, he always likes someone, he rarely talks to me, he is a good man, he treats me very well, but...so, I don't know why, I may be obsessed...I'm so stupid, Moran... I shouldn't be with him at all, if my husband finds out, I really don't know what to do..." Zhao Yanshu closed her eyes in pain.

"Do you love him?" Moran asked.

"I..." Zhao Yanshu stared blankly at the ceiling, then said, "I love him."

"I mean your husband."

Zhao Yanshu stopped talking.

"Regardless of whether you love Liao Yongli or not, it's not worth doing stupid things for him. I just heard the call and I was about to die of anxiety." Mo Lan gently touched Zhao Yanshu's arm.

"I can't help it, Moran, I can't help it... I like him, I envy Du Xiaomei so much, if I were her, I would never take off that wedding ring even if I die, I wish I were her... But, I feel sorry for my husband, after all, he is still very good to me." Zhao Yanshu shook her head helplessly, and shed two lines of tears.

It's pointless to discuss whether she should cheat now.

"Did you really feel uncomfortable when you were eating that day?" Moran asked, this was a question that had been bothering her all the time, "Is it psychological or physical?"

"I didn't expect that she had a child, but Liao told me that he hadn't been with her...for a long time, and he lied to me." It can be seen that Zhao Yanshu was very painful about this, so, at that time, her behavior was out of control. Behavior is entirely due to psychological imbalance.In fact, on this point, Liao Yongli really didn't lie to her.

"That day, were you the first to arrive?" Moran asked, she decided to confirm Jiang Rongxi's conjecture.

There was a flash of wariness in Zhao Yanshu's eyes, she hesitated for a while before pursing her lips and agreeing: "Yes."

"What did Du Xiaomei say when she was alone with you?"

"It's nothing, she just chatted with me about family affairs." Zhao Yanshu looked at her innocently with big watery eyes.

"How long have you been talking?"

"I can't remember, about half an hour." She obviously didn't want to linger on this topic, "Shortly after Rong Xi came, and another 10 minutes later, Dai Rou also arrived, and finally you also arrived, we have been chatting homely."

"What do you mean by the so-called homework? You chatted with Du Xiaomei for about half an hour."

Zhao Yanshu glanced at her, but didn't answer right away.

"Did Xiaomei Du ask you about Liao Yongli?"

"Yes." Zhao Yanshu nodded.

"What did she ask you?"

"She asked me if I had texted him."

Moran watched her, waiting for her to speak.

"I only sent him a text message, and I told him not to tell him about that..." Zhao Yanshu stopped and stared at Moran, "You."

Sure enough, Jiang Rongxi guessed it.She said: "Don't tell Moran about us." This is tantamount to telling Du Xiaomei that Liao Yongli's lover also knows Moran, and Du Xiaomei can easily think of their culinary club.

"Then what do you say?"

"I admit it, because it is indeed my mobile phone number, and I don't think I can deny it. But I told her that what I told Liao Yongli was about Moran, and I said that I saw her husband and that Xiaomi Let's eat together."

Moran was taken aback. Is this a lie or the truth?She once saw Liang Yongsheng eating with Gao Jie?
"When did that happen? Did you really see it?"

"I did, Mo Lan, I saw Liang Yongsheng with a young girl, a week after you divorced." Zhao Yanshu looked at Mo Lan with pity, "They look very good, I told Liao Yongli We all feel that we shouldn't tell you about this, we... don't want to make you sad."

Two months ago, Moran might have felt very sad when she heard this, but now she just feels a little uncomfortable, and there is nothing special about it.Liang Yongsheng has passed away, and she doesn't want to think about it anymore.She glanced at Zhao Yanshu, who was looking at her with a mixture of sympathy and love, which made her feel uncomfortable.Moran didn't want to be pitied.

"Thank you, Yan Shu, I don't miss him now, so it has nothing to do with me." She said.

"Really? You are so strong." Zhao Yanshu sighed.

"Did you mention Jiang Rongxi to Du Xiaomei?" Moran asked cautiously.

A trace of vigilance flashed again in Zhao Yanshu's eyes.

"Why do you ask that?"

"Yong Li told me this. He said that he met Jiang Rongxi in a cafe, and you saw him later." Mo Lan stared at Zhao Yanshu intently.

Zhao Yanshu lowered her head and frowned with a heartbroken look.

"That cafe is on Haihe Road." Moran added.

"I don't know what I said that day. Du Xiaomei kept asking. She always asked me if Liao Yonglip and I met or talked on the phone. I don't know why... Then I talked about it. , I was completely unintentional, please tell Rongxi, I didn't mean to speak ill of her, because I did see her with Liao Yongli, I think..." She turned her head away in pain, and she shed tears again.

"What do you think?"
