A small room was crammed with more than a dozen policemen. They searched around but did not find anything unusual. Only then did they begin interrogating Mu Tong."What's your name?"
"Mu Tong!"
"What's your relationship with Guoxing?"
Mu Tong's heart trembled. Could it be that Guo Xing had confessed to him? He was afraid, but he insisted,"What country? I don't know him!"
A policeman showed Mu Tong a photo and asked,""Look at this person. Do you know him?”
Mu Tong took a closer look. It turned out that the person in the photo was Guo Xing. He pretended not to know anything and continued to answer,"I really don't know him!"
"Think about it carefully!" The police officer dragged Mu Tong up from the ground, grabbed his arms tightly, and placed him behind his back so that he could not move. Then, he asked," Answer the police's questions seriously now. You are not allowed to hide anything. Everything you say will be fixed as evidence. We have a law enforcement recorder to record the entire process..."
As soon as the police officers said this, the leading police officers suddenly stopped talking at the same time, as if someone had poured cold water on their heads. They looked at each other and said at the same time,"Why did these 'law enforcement recording devices' crash?”
It turned out that Mu Tong had ordered the " Cloud Butterfly " to destroy the law enforcement recording devices in the surroundings in a panic. However, the police did not know about this and thought that it was a coincidence that there was a quality problem.
Mu Tong recalled what Guo Xing had told him and understood the whole story. He relaxed a little and continued,"Oh…I remember now, I've seen this person before! I almost forgot. A few days ago, I saw this person commit suicide on the top of the mountain in Baoling Cemetery. I was the one who sent him to the hospital for emergency treatment. As for his name, I really forgot!”
The police seemed to believe Mu Tong's words. Seeing that he was thin and weak, and did not have much ability to resist, they let go of his hands and continued,""Guoxing committed a crime, and some of the clues involved you, so I'll have to trouble you to come with me to assist the police in their investigation so that we can find out the truth and prove your innocence!”
Just like that, Mu Tong was taken into the car and brought to the interrogation room in the police station. He repeated what Guo Xing had told him. The police took a statement and did not find any major suspects on Mu Tong. In the end, they said to him,"Guoxing was an important suspect in a series of cyberattacks, but he was seriously ill and died early this morning. We've already found out his identity. He's an orphan and has no close relatives. Regarding this, we found the director of the orphanage where he was at that time and have already verified it. Before he died, he left behind his last words, appointing you to take care of the funeral. Due to the seriousness of his case, everyone who has contact with him will be investigated by the police, so we have invited you here today for questioning. I hope you can report everything you know to the police!”
"I really don't know anything!" Mu Tong pretended to be innocent and said,"If I knew that saving him would cause me so much trouble, I would have called the police earlier. At that time, he didn't think so much. He thought that saving people was more important! I'm not related to him at all. I really don't understand why he appointed me to handle his funeral. Didn't the police ask him for a reason?”
" His reason is very far-fetched," the police officer said expressionlessly." He said that you're his only friend in this world. You're the only one who cares about him and is willing to save him, so he's willing to let you handle his funeral." Although he is a major criminal, he is already dead. We respect the wishes of the deceased and officially hand over his funeral to you.”
Mu Tong hesitated for a while, then pretended to be helpless and said,""Alright then! I'll help him to the end. Just treat it as if I really lost a friend and help him scatter his ashes into the sea!”
After Mu Tong finished speaking, he received Guo Xing's death certificate from the police. The police did not continue to make things difficult for him and let him leave the police station building.
Mu Tong walked out of the police station compound. As soon as he reached the street, the Cloud Butterfly Combat Armor suddenly had a strong reaction. Mu Tong was shocked. He saw the blood-red words " Danger Alert " pop up on the Cloud Butterfly page. Don't turn back!"
Then, the surveillance video on the page scanned Mu Tong's back. Although Mu Tong was nervous, he had gradually developed a tacit understanding with the Cloud Butterfly Battlesuit over the past few days. Therefore, he continued to walk forward without looking back, pretending not to notice what was happening behind him. He just stared at the page of the Cloud Butterfly Battlesuit in front of him.
It turned out that a car was parked not far behind Mu Tong. Two men were watching Mu Tong's back through the front windshield of the car. However, the two of them never expected that their facial information had already been locked by the "Cloud Butterfly".
" Cloud Butterfly " analyzed the facial features of the two men and presented all their information to Mu Tong. One of them was an old man with a sincere face, Dean Ni of the orphanage, and the other was an alert young man, Hua Teng, the president of the game company, Wandering World.
Mu Tong's heart skipped a beat when he saw the two of them. He immediately understood that Guo Xing must have recorded their identities and facial features into the "Major Alert Catalog" before he died. Therefore, when "Cloud Butterfly" noticed the two of them, it immediately sent a warning to Mu Tong and a notification popped up on the page."The other party has an audio device with him. Do you want to monitor his voice?”
Mu Tong hurriedly confirmed with his eyes. After receiving the order,"Yundie" immediately turned on the "car phone" in the car.
Mu Tong immediately heard the voices in the car, but Dean Ni and Hua Teng did not notice it.
Hua Teng spoke first,""It's this person. The police handed Guo Xing's Death Certificate to him.”
"Follow him quietly and see what he's up to," said Dean Ni coldly.”
Mu Tong had guessed the purpose of these two people. As long as they did not pose a threat to him, it would be fine. Thus, he felt a little relieved. He took Guo Xing's Death Certificate to the hospital morgue and handed over Guo Xing's body. Then, he contacted the funeral service agency to bring Guo Xing's body to the crematorium for cremation. Finally, the ashes were put into a simple urn and brought back to the rented house.
Dean Ni and Hua Teng had been tailing Mu Tong the entire time. They had been monitoring Mu Tong's movements, and their own movements were also being monitored by "Yun Die".
After Mu Tong entered his room, he continued to monitor the movements of the two people through the "Cloud Butterfly". At this time, Hua Teng's voice said,"Should we rush in and see what he's up to?”
"You have a prominent identity, so it's easy for him to recognize you. It's not worth it to cause trouble over such a small matter," said Dean Ni after a moment of hesitation. I'll go up and take a look. After all, I watched Guoxing grow up. It's only right for me to ask about this matter!”
Hearing this, Mu Tong was a little anxious. He did not want to get entangled with these two people because of Guoxing. So, he thought of a plan and poured Guoxing's ashes into a ceramic jar. He grabbed a few handfuls of flour and put them into the urn. Then, he carried the urn out of the hut and walked straight out.
When she arrived downstairs, she happened to meet Dean Ni. Mu Tong pretended not to know her and walked down the street with the urn in her arms.
Dean Ni was stunned at first, but Mu Tong had already walked onto the street and hailed a taxi. Hence, he quickly turned around and returned to Hua Teng's car. The two of them started the car and continued to follow Mu Tong's taxi.
Mu Tong brought the urn all the way to the seaside trestle. There were many tourists here, and it was noisy. Hua Teng put on a pair of dark sunglasses and got out of the car. He followed Mu Tong quietly with Dean Ni.
Mu Tong deliberately waited for the two of them to get close to him before muttering loudly to himself,"Guoxing! I'm not related to you at all, and I don't know you at all. I saved you once out of kindness, but you still caused so much trouble for me. The police said that you knew some lousy director of the orphanage. You didn't ask him to take care of your funeral, but you came to find an unemployed vagrant like me to take care of your funeral. I really don't understand. Did you get sick before you died? I can't even feed myself, how can I afford to buy a cemetery for you! I'll bury you at sea here! Whether you're willing or not, this is all I can do! If you are still dissatisfied with anything, go and find your lousy dean. Don't pester me anymore!”
After Mu Tong finished speaking, he opened the urn and scattered it on the surface of the sea. The flour was quickly swept away by the waves and finally thrown into the sea along with the urn. It also disappeared into the depths of the sea with the waves.
Mu Tong pretended to be relieved and sighed. Then, she strolled back and used the "Cloud Butterfly" to secretly turn on the phones of Dean Ni and Hua Teng to listen in on their conversation.
"Ah, Little Teng! Let this matter end here! Your company is so busy, and I still have a lot of things to do. There's no need to investigate further!”
"Uncle Ni! Don't you want to find out the relationship between this kid and Guoxing?”Hua Teng said hurriedly.
"Sigh…" Dean Ni sighed."Back then, I heard from the police that Guoxing was going to commit suicide in front of my daughter's grave, so I rushed over. I was afraid that that kid would haunt my daughter until he died. Now that his ashes have been scattered into the sea, what else do I have to worry about? As for the relationship between the young man in front and Guoxing, what does it have to do with me? I can't be bothered with him! You should go back too!"
"But…Uncle Ni, maybe this kid has some shady business with Guoxing…"
" Hey…" Dean Ni interrupted Hua Teng and continued,""Teng! I really don't understand. Your company's daily turnover is tens of millions. You've left so many important business matters of the company aside, but you're here to investigate a person who's even smaller than a bug. Even if this kid has some shady business with Guoxing, it's still something that the police should be involved in. Why are you pestering him?”
" I..." Hua Teng was at a loss for words."Uncle Ni! I've always suspected that Shanshan's suicide was related to Guoxing. Now that Guoxing is dead, maybe this kid knows something…"
" Alright…Alright…" Dean Ni interrupted him again and said impatiently,""Teng! I know you've been brooding over Shanshan's death. It's a pity that my Shanshan's life is poor and she doesn't have the fortune to live the life of an upper-class person with you. Since Shanshan chose to die in this way, you should let go of this relationship completely!”
"But…Uncle Ni…"
"Alright! Teng! I'll say it again. If you really find any valuable clues that can prove that this kid or Guo Xing is related to my daughter's death, then call the police immediately so that Shanshan's innocence can be cleared. If you don't have any clues, don't disturb me. I hope that I can get out of the pain of losing my beloved daughter as soon as possible. I don't want to continue being so sad. I'm already very tired. Let's stop here!”
After Dean Ni finished speaking, she hailed a taxi, got in it, and left without looking back. Hua Teng was obviously unwilling to give up. He returned to his car alone and continued to follow Mu Tong. Mu Tong was also using the Cloud Butterfly to observe Hua Teng's figure.
Just like that, for five days, the two of them kept a distance from each other and monitored each other vigilantly. On the sixth day, Hua Teng finally disappeared from Mu Tong's side. " Cloud Butterfly " tracked Hua Teng's mobile phone coordinates and showed that he had left the local area and returned to Beijing. Mu Tong finally heaved a sigh of relief.
Late at night on the seventh day, Mu Tong carried Guoxing's ashes on his back and quietly arrived outside the Baoling Cemetery. He climbed over the wall and sneaked into the cemetery. He climbed up the mountain path and came to Shanshan's grave. He followed Guoxing's instructions before he died and buried his ashes under the pine tree roots beside Shanshan's grave.
After Mu Tong buried her ashes, she sat down in front of Shanshan's tombstone. Under the bright moonlight, she looked at the photo on the tombstone. She was indeed an extraordinary beauty. Then he looked at the pine tree buried beside the grave. The trunk was tall and straight, and the horizontal branches were vigorous. He couldn't help but sigh softly,"What a pair of unfortunate lovebirds! It was difficult to reunite when they were alive and difficult to separate after death. If they could not be husband and wife in the human world, they would go to heaven to be husband and wife! Brother Guoxing! I've already helped you fulfill your first wish, but I was almost targeted by Hua Teng. These days, I didn't even dare to blink, afraid that Hua Teng would kill me. Now, I'm going to help you fulfill your second wish, but I feel that it's very difficult! If it wasn't for your shocking love with Shanshan, I would have retreated long ago! I hope that you two can bless me with peace and success so that I can uncover the truth as soon as possible and avenge Shanshan!”
Mu Tong was muttering to herself, but at this moment,"Cloud Butterfly" suddenly sent out a strong alarm signal. The page had an emergency notification."An unknown object is rapidly approaching you. Please pay attention to avoid it!”
It was the middle of the night. In the cemetery, on the top of the mountain, and in front of the grave, Mu Tong could not imagine any " unknown object " rapidly approaching him. Therefore, when he saw the prompt on the page, his hair stood on end. He felt a cold wind blowing from his back and a chill at the back of his head...
