Chapter 253 The Curse Continues
The criminal investigation team received a report that someone was standing on the roof of the Xingyao Building and was suspected of jumping off the building.
After Xiangnan and his team received the call, they rushed over immediately.
For some reason, Su Xiaoxiao felt a sense of panic.
She also drove over.
Xingyao Building is one of the most upscale commercial buildings in the city and is the absolute city center.
At this moment, the glass curtain wall of the Xingyao Building was reflecting a dazzling light under the afterglow of the setting sun, and at the top of this light, there was an inconspicuous black spot.
It was a person, standing on a building dozens of stories high, as small as a speck of dust, and it seemed that he would be blown away by the wind.
Some people working in self-media have heard the news and are looking for the best location in the surrounding buildings to live broadcast what is happening, which has attracted the attention of many netizens.
It is not easy to go up to the top floor of this kind of commercial building.
The property manager was already panicking and was explaining something to the police who had arrived.
Su Xiaoxiao had already seen the video online. The face of the person who was about to jump off the building was not clear in the video. All that could be seen was that it was a woman. The fence on the roof was quite high, and the person was climbing up with great effort.
A corner of the skirt seemed to be caught on the fence, and the figure on it was swaying.
Seeing the black dress and the white hair on the woman's head, Su Xiaoxiao's pupils suddenly contracted and her heart began beating violently.
Based on my intuition, this person is Chen Jie.
At this time, the property manager had already gone up to the top floor with the police and firefighters.
The wind on the roof was very strong. Chen Jie's body was swaying on the fence. Seeing someone coming up, she suddenly pulled the hem of her skirt. With a "swish", the hem of her skirt was torn apart.
"Chen Jie, don't jump!" Xiang Nan saw the scene and immediately shouted, "Are you willing to die like this before we find the murderer who killed your daughter?"
"The murderers who killed my daughter will not die a good death. They will soon go to accompany my daughter." Chen Jie showed a strange smile on her face.
"Chen Jie, don't do anything stupid. You have to trust the police."
"Trust the police?" Chen Jie sneered, "Didn't you police say that my daughter's death was an accident and there was no murderer? I have contacted you many times, but you just didn't believe it. Now you tell me to trust the police."
"Chen Jie, I believe you. No matter what the previous police said, I promise you that I will do my best to find the murderer."
"Don't bother the police. If I jump, they will go to hell with me."
Xiangnan then noticed that there was a blood-red pattern painted on the back of Chen Jie's black skirt, but he couldn't see clearly what it was. It seemed to be some evil symbol. He vaguely guessed something.
"Chen Jie, don't do anything stupid. Your curse is useless. They won't die. You will be the only one who will die." He said as he slowly moved forward.
"Hush, don't talk nonsense. My curse is effective. As long as I jump down, they will die. Just wait and see."
Sensing Xiangnan approaching, the smile on Chen Jie's face became more and more weird. She let go of the guardrail with both hands and fell backwards.
Xiangnan rushed forward, but only had time to grab a corner of her skirt.
However, Chen Jie did not fall down. Her body was supported by someone from below.
Just as Xiangnan was communicating with Chen Jie, Su Xiaoxiao found the property manager and asked him to open the room below Chen Jie downstairs.
Although firefighters have evacuated the crowd and set up air cushions, even with the air cushions they might not be effective if one jumps from such a high place.
The only way is to stop her.
The property manager took her downstairs, which was near where Chen Jie lived and belonged to a technology company.
She opened the glass window closest to Chen Jie and took a look. It was only a few meters away from the roof. She could step on the window for leverage and use her top-notch lightness skills to jump directly up.
The property manager and employees of the technology company were scared to death when they saw her flip out of the window. Some timid girls even screamed.
That's how she was able to hold Chen Jie up from below the moment she jumped.
Xiangnan and others quickly pulled both of them up.
Everyone was amazed at how Su Xiaoxiao managed to climb up from the bottom. Even the firefighters couldn't do it without protection. How did she climb up from the bottom?!
After Chen Jie was rescued, she fainted and the police had already carried her into the ambulance.
Su Xiaoxiao also saw the red pattern behind Chen Jie. She and Xiangnan looked at each other and saw confusion in each other's eyes.
They originally thought that the curse would be over when they found the two scammers, but they didn't expect that the curse is still continuing. The situation before them is obviously more complicated than they imagined.
At this time, Su Xiaoxiao in another world also encountered difficulties.
Su Xiaoxiao, who had laid the bait, was waiting in front of the computer with Li Yan and the others.
Just as they expected, after Zhao Wei learned that Chen Xueyi was missing, he went to find Zhao Zhixiang angrily.
At this time, Zhao Zhixiang was chatting with Yu Ming.
Seeing Zhao Wei rushing in, Zhao Zhixiang showed an unhappy look on his face.
"Why are you always like this? What are you doing so rashly?!"
"Dad, tell me honestly, did you do anything to Chen Xueyi?"
Zhao Wei's courage had been almost used up on the way here. He felt an instinctive fear when he saw his father. Under Zhao Zhixiang's gaze, his voice unconsciously lowered.
"Is that how you talk to your father?! How dare you question me!"
"Dad, I told you that Chen Xueyi is very reliable and she won't betray me."
"Zhao Wei, your father didn't do anything. We don't know what the situation is with Chen Xueyi." Yu Ming, who was standing aside, spoke up.
"Uncle Yu, are you telling the truth? Can you help me find her?" Zhao Wei begged.
"Okay, I'll help you find it when I have time."
"Thank you, Uncle Yu."
After hearing Uncle Yu say that they had not done anything to Chen Xueyi, Zhao Wei felt relieved a lot of his worries.
However, Su Xiaoxiao and the others who were monitoring the conversation on the other end were even more confused. How did Chen Xueyi disappear? Could it be that Zhao Zhixiang and the others had nothing to do with her? !
"Dad, it's okay. I'm leaving now and won't disturb you and Uncle Yu from talking."
"You can go, but Assistant Liu needs to stay."
"Dad, what are you looking for Assistant Liu for? I have something to do with him."
"Just go about your business and don't worry. We have some things we need to ask Assistant Liu." Yu Ming smiled.
Liu Zeyang, who was standing aside, tried his best to keep calm on his face, but he was extremely panicked in his heart. He was afraid that what he had done could no longer be concealed.
"Mr. Zhao, what do you need me to do?"
"No hurry, take a seat first, and we'll chat slowly." Zhao Zhixiang pointed to the sofa next to him and said in a gentle tone, "You've been with Zhao Wei for so long, and we rarely communicate. I guess you must have been worried about my useless son."
"No, no, I'm Mr. Zhao's assistant, and these are what I should do." Liu Zeyang waved his hands hurriedly.
"It should be done." Zhao Zhixiang nodded. "You have done a lot for him. You found those long-haired girls for him, right?!"
Zhao Zhixiang's eyes turned cold. Liu Zeyang felt as if his body had been pierced. He was afraid that he would be in great danger today.
Just then, his cell phone rang.
