Chapter 707: Thin Air
“Ah, heavens, how could this be?”
“Shan ‘Er, who did this to you?”
“Shan ‘Er...”
The Bai family villa was filled with cries and wails.
The head of the Bai family, Bai Shixing, and his wife went to the place mentioned in the letter and found the person, well, the corpse.
But they couldn’t recognize Bai Shanshan at all. That was because her appearance had completely changed.
At first, they felt relief. Perhaps this was just a prank.
However, the medical examiner came over and told them that this woman’s face had been operated on. Moreover, it was not minor surgery but a major one.
When Bai Shixing heard this, he felt as if he had been struck by lightning. He and his wife couldn’t believe that the woman lying in the autopsy room was their precious third daughter.
However, they still needed to verify whether it was true or not. The DNA test showed that the woman’s DNA matched Bai Shixing’s. In other words, she was his daughter.
“How... How is this possible?” Bai Shixing was willing to accept such a result. His daughter was perfectly fine half a year ago, but when they met again, they were separated forever.
“Who... Who killed my daughter?” Bai Shixing grabbed a police officer and shouted hysterically.
The police officer comforted him calmly, “Mr. Bai, please calm down. We are still investigating the murderer of your daughter. Don’t worry. We will definitely return justice to the deceased.” At this point, the police officer asked seriously, “Mr. Bai, do you know who your daughter has offended?”
Bai Shixing said angrily, “My third daughter was so obedient and sensible. Who could she have offended?”
The police officer asked again, “Then, Mr. Bai, do you know why your daughter changed her appearance into another person?”
“How would I know?” Bai Shixing said angrily and arrogantly, “Do you know who I am? I’m Bai Shixing, the head of the Bai family in the capital city. Let me tell you, if you don’t investigate the case properly and don’t give my daughter justice, I will never let you off.”
The police officer immediately added, “Mr. Bai, please calm down. Don’t worry. We will definitely investigate the case properly. We will definitely give Ms. Bai Shanshan justice. However...” At this point, the police officer said in a serious tone, “However, when we are investigating the case, please cooperate with us, Mr. Bai. That way, we will be able to find the murderer faster, right?”
They were small police officers, but they had met many people who were arrogant and despotic because of their family background. These people were used to bullying others. They were used to others bowing to them.
As the saying goes, the merchants shan’t offend the government.
Bai Shixing really should heed that saying.
When Bai Shixing heard the commanding tone of the small police officer, he immediately said angrily, “Who do you think you are? Do you want me to be at your beck and call?”
The officer smiled in a calm manner. “I am no one. We’re just the police who serve the people. Also, Mr. Bai, Miss Bai’s case has been moved up. Therefore, please cooperate with the investigation.”
Bai Shixing was a little stunned. “Moved up?”
“That’s right. Ms. Bai Shanshan was assassinated. The murderer was a sniper. The higher-ups attach great importance to it. They want to thoroughly investigate the case!” The police officer said very seriously.
After that, Bai Shixing brought his wife back to the capital. As for Bai Shanshan’s body, they could not bring it back yet.
The moment they returned, the entire villa was in a state of grief. Especially Mrs. Bai, who loved Bai Shanshan the most. She had cried and fainted several times.
Bai Shixing had also been in a state of anger the entire time.
His daughter was gone just like that, but he didn’t even know her killer.
“Bastard! The killer better wishes that they don’t fall into my hands, or I’ll make their life a living hell!”
At that moment, the Butler rushed over with a letter with a blank cover. In a hurried voice, he said, “Master, it’s happening again...”
When Bai Shixing saw the letter in his hand, he immediately asked, “What’s written on the letter?”
The Butler shook his head and said, “Master, I haven’t read it yet!”
Bai Shixing quickly took the letter and opened it to read. His face immediately turned livid as he said angrily, “This is too much!”
The butler immediately asked, “Master, what did the letter say?”
Bai Shixing said angrily, “The letter said that My Shan ‘Er was forced to death by Gong Tianhao of the Gong family and a woman named Xiao Lingyu of Taoyuan Village.”
The Butler was shocked when he heard that. He asked in shock, “Why would Gong Tianhao be related to third miss’ death? And who is even this Xiao Lingyu?”
Bai Shixing immediately said, “We’ll find out now. Butler, immediately sends someone to investigate this Xiao Lingyu. No matter what, you have to drag her back to me.”
“Yes, Master!” The Butler immediately replied.
Bai Shixing looked at the villa’s entrance, and his fist directly hit the mahogany chair’s armrest. He said with extreme anger, “Gong Tianhao, you’ve gone too far. Just wait. I’ll definitely take revenge.”
He couldn’t touch Gong Tianhao, but he could touch the nobody from Taoyuan Village. ‘Xiao Lingyu, I’ll use your blood as a sacrifice to my Shan ‘Er first. You will have to die!’
...
At the Gong family, Yue Qilin reported to Gong Tianhao, “Boss, someone is indeed causing trouble, and the direct targets are you and Madam!”
Gong Tianhao frowned and asked, “Did you catch the person who delivered the letter?”
Yue Qilin shook his head and said, “Since we received your order, our people have been guarding the Bai family’s villa and various companies 24 hours a day. We didn’t see any suspicious people delivering the letter to the Bai family. That letter seemed to have appeared out of thin air in that mailbox.”
“What?” Gong Tianhao was slightly shocked when he heard this answer. He then asked, “Are you sure there are no accidents in your surveillance?” It wasn’t that he didn’t believe his subordinates, but this answer was clearly beyond his expectations.
“This is the same as Bai Shanshan. She was also assassinated under your surveillance.” Gong Tianhao’s expression immediately became stern.
Yue Qilin said very seriously, “Boss, I’m very sure that our surveillance team is not negligent. Also, we investigated the sniper who shot Bai Shanshan. There were no suspicious figures at any of the intersections. It was as if... the sniper had appeared out of thin air on the eighth floor.”
“What?” Gong Tianhao was truly shocked this time.
