Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight novel Chapter 609

Chapter 609: Chapter 609: Not an Ordinary Person

Lin Zhiyi looked at Gong Chen in confusion.

Gong Chen reached out and took Chen Jin’s pad.

"Do you remember the watch your mom mentioned? Even though the watch might indeed have been lost at the bottom of the lake, if it existed, it would definitely leave a trace."

As he spoke, he turned aside and selected a close-up photo that only showed an arm.

Lin Zhiyi glanced around and asked, "What’s wrong?"

"Don’t look, the other pictures are a bit scary."

Gong Chen handed the pad over.

Lin Zhiyi nodded. She didn’t want to challenge her courage either.

She looked down at the enlarged arm, overall swollen, with some cuts on it.

Possibly cut by something in the lake.

The wrist area was particularly badly cut.

"Why is this part so severe?" Lin Zhiyi kept adjusting the angle to observe.

Gong Chen remained silent and simply raised his hand to undo his watch, revealing his wrist.

Lin Zhiyi leaned in to watch and noticed that for someone who wears a watch for a long time, the skin in this area appears different in color than the surrounding skin.

And there’s also an imprint from the watch.

Lin Zhiyi immediately realized, "Someone tried to deliberately destroy this piece of skin."

"Yes."

Gong Chen nodded.

For women, watches could be considered a form of jewelry.

This happened to be Lin Zhiyi’s area of expertise.

She zoomed in again and again, judging from the color, indentations, and width on a small piece of skin.

"She definitely wore something."

After confirming, Lin Zhiyi’s expression did not relax.

She inspected for a long time and continued, "But it’s not a watch."

She pointed at a piece of skin the size of a fingernail. "This is the clasp commonly used in luxury bracelets, smooth and sleek, and also..."

"Logo." Gong Chen interjected, "After all, I’m also from Designer Lin’s place, I know a bit."

Lin Zhiyi glared at him, saying this was important.

Gong Chen slightly raised his eyebrows and continued looking at the photos.

Lin Zhiyi said, "This logo is too blurry, I can’t make it out. My mom might have mistaken it for a watchband mark. But judging from the width, it’s definitely not the dainty watch my mom had, more like a wide bracelet, with very intricate patterns, it should be quite valuable."

"If Wei Xiaoyun had something so valuable, she wouldn’t need a fake death." Gong Chen spoke coldly.

Lin Zhiyi was stunned.

Eliminate all possibilities, and what remains, no matter how unbelievable, is the truth.

This is not Wei Xiaoyun’s body.

During the ten minutes Liu He was late, Wei Xiaoyun might have been preparing the body.

That body is...

Lin Zhiyi again looked at that arm.

Just as she was about to speak, a deep voice came from beside her.

"Even though the body is swollen, the skin is smooth and fair, not only on the arm but all over, Wei Xiaoyun’s past jobs didn’t require exposure to the sun, but skin like this must have been well-maintained, coupled with a luxurious bracelet, this body... is not an ordinary person."

"Where did Wei Xiaoyun get a body? Normal people, she couldn’t have..." killed them on the spot?

Lin Zhiyi was shocked by her own terrifying thought.

"The body might actually be the best start, after death, the body becomes extremely heavy, it’s hard for a regular person to move it, if Wei Xiaoyun was really preparing a body by the river, there can’t be no clues at all."

After analyzing, Gong Chen looked at Lin Zhiyi.

Following his lead, Lin Zhiyi thought it through and understood the significance of Liu He’s ten minutes.

"My mom felt particularly sorry for Wei Xiaoyun because of the ten-minute delay, so she couldn’t think calmly when identifying the body and could only rely on a birthmark to confirm it was Wei Xiaoyun. That’s what Wei Xiaoyun wanted to extract from my mom, guilt."

"Only then, Wei Xiaoyun’s fake death plan truly closes the loop."

Although it was said to be planned with Liu He, in fact, Liu He was just a part of it.

Gong Chen advised, "For now, don’t tell your mom about this, she’s just been discharged, don’t want her to bear this, I’ll have someone ask about Wei Xiaoyun’s situation before and after the ’suicide’ at the police station."

"Okay."

That’s the only thing we can do now.

As she spoke, she had already found the show’s topic online.

The more she looked, the angrier she got, and she took a deep breath and stood up.

"These fans are really too much. If they’re so precious about their idol, they shouldn’t participate in a romance variety show. Even if Chu Yin acts like a fangirl, it’s for entertainment effect, why resort to personal attacks?"

"Brother is handsome, brother is cool, give me a break, talking like riding a motorcycle, can’t he live without bubble sounds?"

"He actually had the nerve to tell other female guests that Chu Yin was acting?"

Liao Yi felt like pinching someone’s nose bridge.

She had previously advised Lin Zhiyi to watch this like a romance drama, but she herself couldn’t take it.

However, Lin Zhiyi also felt that this man spoke too excessively.

But seeing the high levels of discussion online, it’s probably the show’s intention.

At least this pair was the first to gain fame.

Just as she was about to advise Liao Yi to calm down, the scene changed.

The group dancing and singing around the campfire suddenly heard Chu Yin’s scream.

Chu Yin seemed to be pushed by something, throwing herself into a person-high campfire.

Fortunately, she was pulled back but still got her leg burnt by the sparks.

The whole person fell messily into the mud.

The screen was filled with comments mocking her for giving herself more screen time and accusing her of deliberately falling to embarrass herself.

"Chu Yin got hurt! How come she didn’t tell us?"

This was recorded a few days ago, meaning Chu Yin has been injured for several days.

Worried, Lin Zhiyi picked up her phone to make a call when Liu He’s call came in.

"Mom?"

"Zhiyi, didn’t you ask who President Bai’s woman is now? I just inquired, and you’ll never guess who it is."

"Mom, I have something urgent, don’t keep me in suspense," Lin Zhiyi said, fixating on the TV.

"Chu Yin."
