Chapter 585: Chapter 585: Your Butt Is Flawless

Wu Jing found herself in a miraculous new world. Lin
Everywhere she looked, the world was pure white, as if she were in heaven.
She floated in this celestial realm, bathed in warm, embracing sunlight.
That indescribable sensation made Wu Jing want to lose herself in it completely.
Not wanting…to wake up?
After blinking a few times, Wu Jing looked on in astonishment at the young, handsome policeman who was smiling at her.
For an unwed ‘old lady’, his radiant smile was truly comforting.
Xiao Yu understood exactly what Wu Jing’s eyes were saying.
He had seen the same gentle warmth on Mu Qingwu, on kind aunts, a mother’s friend, even the big sister next door.
“Are you familiar with Gan Shaomei?”
Xiao Yu wiped away his sunny smile.
He had just used Hypnosis.
It had revealed quite a few secrets about her.
One thing he was fairly sure of: Wu Jing was not the murderer.
During the hypnosis session, Xiao Yu had questioned Wu Jing about some details regarding her subordinates.
She had answered truthfully about everyone else.
But when it came to Gan Shaomei, even under hypnosis, Wu Jing stuttered and appeared utterly confused, as if Gan Shaomei didn’t exist in her memory at all.
How could this be?
Clearly, Gan Shaomei was one of your own people, someone who worked with you every day.
Then how is it that you have no recollection of her?
Isn’t that rather amusing?
“Huh?”
Wu Jing paused for a long moment before finally recalling, “Well, I wouldn’t say we were close. I took over the Sales Center at the Business Apartment recently, whereas Gan Shaomei…she had been working at the Sales Center for two years.”
Two years… Xiao Yu mused and raised his eyebrows slightly.
Something didn’t add up.
After all, in the sales industry – especially in real estate – turnover is exceptionally high.
Typically, a sales team takes over a property, makes the sale, and then moves on.
Sometimes they even leave before every last unit is sold.
They earn commissions for each sale, not a fixed salary.
Granted, the base salary at the Sales Center was fairly decent.
A steady 3,000 a month.
For a fresh university graduate dipping their toes into society, it might serve as a temporary job.
But it was never meant to be a long-term career.
Gan Shaomei was 27 now – just 25 two years ago.
Yet her work wasn’t in sales at all; she was handling administrative tasks at the Sales Center.
Earning barely more than a 3,000 base salary without any sales commission for two whole years?
“Aside from work, did she have any hobbies?”
Xiao Yu continued, “Or anything unusual about her?”
“Hobbies? Unusual?”
Wu Jing shook her head in surprise. “Not that I can think of. She always gave off a gentle, quiet vibe – not very talkative and never one for company outings. Just the usual routine, leaving and coming back without any red flags… Oh, and she has a very wealthy boyfriend.”
“Wealthy?” Xiao Yu inquired.
“Yes.”
Wu Jing nodded. “Sometimes, her boyfriend would even pick her up in a Cullinan.”
A Rolls-Royce Cullinan – Xiao Yu understood.
Starting at six or seven million, it certainly signified wealth.
“Is there nothing else?” Xiao Yu furrowed his brow.
“Nothing else.” Wu Jing shook her head.
“Thanks for your cooperation.”
Xiao Yu rose with a smile and saw her off.
Once she had left, his expression darkened.
One face and one name floated in his mind.
Gan Shaomei?
Why would he suspect her?
It all boiled down to one anomaly.
Who could possibly spend two months with someone and have them forget all about you?
In other words… you know someone for two months,
but once you part ways, they vanish completely from your memory.
When others mention her name, you can’t recall who she is at all.
Could an ordinary person really do that?
Not to mention professionals from various fields these days.
Only one kind of person is capable of that!
……
Gan Shaomei was now brought before Xiao Yu by Wang Cheng.
Xiao Yu didn’t look at her face but instead examined her feet.
Was it politeness?
Not exactly; he was checking the size of her shoe soles.
They were about a size 37, which did not match the shoe prints found at the crime scene.
However, it wasn’t impossible to fabricate.
·· ······· Beg for flowers ········
After all, petite feet in oversized shoes wasn’t unheard of.
His gaze then shifted to Gan Shaomei’s face as Xiao Yu pointed to a recliner, “Have a seat.”
Gan Shaomei glanced at the recliner and shook her head.
She moved toward the chair Xiao Yu had just occupied and sat down.
Heh… Xiao Yu watched the woman before him with keen interest as he approached the recliner and sat down, locking eyes with her calm, steady gaze. “You know psychology? Or perhaps… hypnosis?”
“I know both.”
Gan Shaomei nodded coolly, her expression indifferent. “If you want to know anything, just ask.”
Sure enough… a strange smile crept onto Xiao Yu’s face. “Do you know Wen Heyu and the couple Qi Dandan?”
They were the victim couple!
….. ….. …….
Gan Shaomei remained silent for a moment before nodding. “I do.”
“Why kill them?”
Xiao Yu stated his thoughts calmly as he looked directly at her.
“Hmm?”
Gan Shaomei maintained her calm demeanor and shook her head slightly. “Officer, please don’t joke around.”
“I’m not joking.”
Xiao Yu’s gaze turned cold and lethal as he met her eyes and declared, “You killed them.”
Gan Shaomei remained silent, as impassive as a block of wood, devoid of any human emotion.
Her expression stayed blank as she stared into Xiao Yu’s eyes.
“I originally had no suspicions about you.”
Xiao Yu sneered dismissively, “The issue lies with Wu Jing.”
At his words, Gan Shaomei’s brow furrowed slightly before she resumed her calm demeanor.
“In the past, I’ve encountered plenty of women skilled in psychology, microexpressions, even hypnosis.”
Faces flashed through Xiao Yu’s mind only to vanish in an instant. “Though they may seem more capable than you, none possess your caution. Intelligent people aren’t frightening—what’s truly terrifying is an intelligent person who still harbors a sense of reverence!”
After he finished speaking, time seemed to freeze.
The two simply stared at each other.
After a long pause,
“I didn’t kill them.”
Gan Shaomei shook her head, her tired tone clear. “Unless…you have any evidence!”
A blatant display of pretension… Xiao Yu remained expressionless.
If you try to deceive me, your ass has no holes.
