Marriage is too late

Chapter 90

Ji Jin's eyes narrowed slightly. Undoubtedly, Shu Lan is such a smart person who knows what can interest her.

Just, what is the cost of exchanging information?
Ji Jin said slowly: "I don't know, I'm also interested, because it's related to Grandpa's death, but I don't want to exchange any information with you."

"Why?" Shu Lan seemed surprised.

"Because I don't trust you." Ji Jin silently tapped his desktop, "And you are so smart that you can see it immediately if I pretend to be a snake with you, so Ming people don't say dark words, I think say clearly."

"I'll just take your words as a compliment." Shu Lan smiled helplessly, "It's not because you don't trust me. There have indeed been more twists and turns between us. But think about it, apart from me Apart from hiding my identity from you, I have never lied to you."

"Shu Lan, I don't trust you, maybe you have provided enough information to Lin Xuxing, maybe the information is correct so far, but I don't trust you, you can call this intuition, it's called suspicion, it's called you can Accept any vocabulary, but I don't trust you." Ji Jin said calmly.

Shu Lan smiled helplessly: "Okay, then this person who is not trusted by you will tell you the following information, you can choose to believe it, of course you can also ignore it, but I hope you can tell Lin Xuxing this information, Think about it carefully. What I want is a report on the current projects of the investment branch as a routine report to the head office. I believe you should have such a document and provide it to the head office. Bar."

Ji Jin was noncommittal, and nodded lightly, there is no harm in listening.

Shu Lan continued: "Chen Lingxi just cooperated with the investigation that day and left the police station very quickly. The content of the interrogation was also very simple. Did you notice anything unusual during the itinerary for those few days? The situation of the old man." She paused, "She specifically pointed out that you had a private conversation with the old man the night before."

Ji Jin frowned: "Me?"

Of course, it wasn't a secret that Grandpa Ye had a conversation with her. Anyone who noticed the whereabouts in the mansion would have noticed, but she clearly remembered that she didn't notice that she passed Chen Lingxi.Why did Chen Lingxi mention herself specifically?Who is Chen Lingxi paying special attention to?To Ji Jin, or to Mr. Lin Ju'an?
"Don't be nervous, Lin Ren and Xie Yingying who had a private conversation with the old man that night are all among them." Shu Lan paused meaningfully for a while, "What do you think this means?"

"The list of suspects..." Ji Jin whispered.

"What?" Shu Lan didn't hear clearly.

Ji Jin shook his head: "That doesn't explain anything."

"That's right, that doesn't explain anything." Shu Lan paused, "But you shouldn't be living in the main house of the Lin family these two days, right?"

"What do you mean?" Ji Jin frowned.

"The police inspected all the rooms in the main house of the Lin family this morning, and finally sealed up Mr. Lin's room." Shu Lan was surprised, "Otherwise, why do you think I came here today?"

Ji Jin was taken aback for a moment, this was indeed beyond her expectation.

Shu Lan raised her wrist and looked at her watch: "Have you left any weaknesses for Chen Lingxi? The ones that can be exploited?"

Ji Jin shook her head slowly. Based on her impression, she and Chen Lingxi didn't have a close relationship, but once there was a conflict of interests, what was there to worry about about the family relationship?So, what kind of chess game is Chen Lingxi playing?

Shu Lan stood up calmly: "Anyway, I brought the words, you and Mr. Lin think about it carefully." She spread her hands, "Give me the documents, and I should go back to deal with business."

Ji Jin tilted his head in doubt and asked her, "How do you know these things?"

Shu Lan said casually, "I have my channel." Shu Lan stood up and walked out slowly.When facing Shu Lan, Ji Jin always feels very puzzled. Every time they meet, Shu Lan will leave her with a more complicated and incomprehensible impression.

As if confirming Shu Lan's warning, Ji Jin was invited to the police station to cooperate with the investigation the next day.

The policeman who was in charge of questioning Ji Jin was called Chen Chen. He was in his early forties. He looked capable and thin, but his eyes were sharp and he looked very sophisticated.

"Do you know this?" Chen Chen showed her a small glass bottle in the evidence bag. The label said "Fentanyl Citrate Injection", and there was a light blue plastic cap on the tin-sealed bottle. .

"It seems to be Grandpa's medicine." Ji Jin frowned and thought, "I saw it in Grandpa's room."

"See?" Chen Chen frowned, "When did it happen?"

"I often see that when grandpa is not feeling well, the nurse will inject him with this." Ji Jin suddenly had a bad premonition.

"Do you know where these medicines are usually stored?" Chen Chen continued to ask.

"It's in the medicine cabinet in Grandpa's room." Ji Jin gestured, "It's white, transparent glass, and you can see all the medicines at a glance."

"Do you usually use these medicines?" Chen Chen asked.

Ji Jin bowed his head and thought carefully before answering: "Rarely, but sometimes when I accompany the bed to take care of grandpa, I sometimes help nurses get medicines."

Chen Chen frowned: "In other words, almost everyone in the Lin family has access to these medicines?"

"Almost, but everyone will not deliberately touch these things. After all, we have specialized nursing staff who will be more professional in taking medicine and using it." Ji Jin nodded.

Chen Chen nodded and continued to ask: "This medicine bottle is actually 'compound colchicine injection'. Someone tore off the original label of this medicine and replaced it with the label of Lin Juan's daily analgesic medicine. Can you explain?" Why are your fingerprints on this pill bottle?"

Ji Jin felt cold all over.

For a second or two, she couldn't even think, her mind was completely blank.She asked tremblingly and with difficulty: "Grandpa, did you die because of this?"

Chen Chen has been observing her with burning eyes, as if he wants to see her clearly from the outside to the inside.Facing Ji Jin's question, he did not give an affirmative answer: "That belongs to the current confidentiality involved in the case. I just want to know why your fingerprints appeared on this medicine bottle. What's your explanation for this?"

Ji Jin murmured: "So it's like this? Grandpa died because of this?" Her mind was in a mess, she didn't say a word, she stared at the table, knowing that it was not wise to behave like this, but she couldn't control it. She trembled for a while, finally calmed down, and apologized, "Sorry, I lost my composure."

Chen Chen waved his hand and poured her a glass of water.

Ji Jin didn't touch the glass of water, she said slowly: "A few days before grandpa passed away, I was accompanying him in his room, the nurse accidentally knocked over a box of medicine, I picked it up for her, although I don't remember the medicine It’s a name, but I remember it’s the same blue plastic bottle cap, if it happened to be this kind of medicine, my fingerprints should have been left at that time.”

Chen Chen nodded: "Let's talk about your relationship with Lin Juan. According to the information we collected, Lin Juan, as a grandfather, does not approve of your marriage with his grandson Lin Xuxing. Does this fact exist?"

Ji Jin nodded: "It used to exist. He didn't attend my wedding with Lin Xuxing, but that was a thing of the past. Now grandpa approves of our marriage. Before he passed away, we were at his bedside. He used to He asked me to live with Lin Xuxing well, and many people present at the time can attest to this."

Chen Chen continued to ask noncommittally: "Then what do you think about the property distribution in Lin Juan's will? What do you think about the beneficiary of Lin's shares changing from Lin Xuhang to Lin Ren?"

"Become?" Ji Jin asked in confusion.

"Don't you know? The day before Lin Juan's death, he just amended his will and changed the beneficiary of the shares from Lin Xuxing to Lin Ren." Chen Chen said slowly, but his eyes were like hooks, fixed on him. Live in Ji Jin.

"I don't know about it." Ji Jin was very calm, "Grandpa notified someone to revise the will, neither Lin Xuxing nor I knew about it. The day before grandpa passed away, we both went to Lin's to handle an investment business. It was very late that day, and colleagues in the company can testify. It was about ten o’clock in the evening when I returned home. I only asked Grandpa’s most trusted old servant, Aunt Chen, about Grandpa’s physical condition that day. We were told that Grandpa did not have any symptoms. Strange. Afterwards, we didn't talk to anyone, and went upstairs to sleep. This can be proved by the surveillance at the door of the house and Aunt Chen, because Aunt Chen didn't mention the matter of grandpa's amendment of the will, so we didn't know , even until now it is the first time I have heard the news.”

"In that case, tell me what you did on the day Lin Juan passed away? Did you have any contact with Lin Juan?" Chen Chen noncommittally asked the next question.

Ji Jin fell into a look of reminiscence: "That morning, Lin Xuxing and I had an investment strategy adjustment meeting. I had the habit of running in the morning. I got up at six in the morning and ran in the garden of the mansion. The road and the gardener's road were too early. After that, I I set off with Lin Xuxing at 07:30 to handle business at Lin’s, which was early. Generally, grandpa’s wake-up time is around [-] o’clock, so we didn’t bother him. After that, Lin Xuxing and I stayed in the office until around [-] o’clock in the afternoon. We went to the Greenfield Hotel together to meet another business partner, Han Yi, you can check with him. After receiving the news that Grandpa was suddenly seriously ill at around three o’clock, we went directly to the hospital. Grandpa didn’t take long died."

Chen Chen unhurriedly recorded the information she said: "Of course, we will verify it."

Chen Chen asked Ji Jin a few more questions, and Ji Jin answered the questions truthfully, but the haze in her heart was still lingering, and she answered the questions truthfully relying on the clarity and calmness she had trained all the year round.

After two hours of repeated interrogation, Chen Chen released Ji Jin, and finally added: "We will ask you to find out about the situation at any time, please keep the communication open at all times, and don't leave City C."
