Chapter 565: Rose-Fear (Part )
Case Seven Rose
Forty-Five Fears (Part 1)
"Yesterday morning around eight o'clock... Qianyang Shopping Mall coffee shop - yes, I met Yang Tangguo and invited her for a cup of coffee. What's the matter?"

Li Liguang's bright and charming look was out of place in this dim interrogation room. She tapped her glittering earrings twice with her fingertips resting on her cheeks. Then she slowly and methodically straightened her leaning forward sitting posture and brushed away the hair that fell from her shoulders. Her delicately made-up eyes blinked innocently again and again, examining Jiang Mo's face, which looked somewhat scary and hateful under the light from the ceiling light, and she frowned slowly and hypocritically.

"Did something happen to her?"

Jiang Mo glanced at the slightly deliberate concern between Li Li's eyebrows, but did not answer. He just continued step by step as usual: "Qianyang Shopping Mall is not close to Shengcheng International, and it doesn't seem to be on your usual commuting route. You took such a long detour. Is it on your way?"

"Officer Jiang cares so much about me? I'm a little flattered~" Li Li's eyes narrowed and she saw Jiang Mo's wrist with his sleeves rolled up. She stared at the gauze that was not wrapped in the sleeves for a while before looking up. Her slender eyebrows were slightly raised, and the corners of her mouth were filled with a smile that was hard to tell the emotion. "Please don't flatter me. Qianyang Shopping Mall is almost in the north of the city, and it's almost a 20-minute drive from our company. If I really say it's on the way, wouldn't it be 'resisting strictness'? I left home early for work yesterday, and I deliberately went to Qianyang Shopping Mall, thinking of looking for Yang Tangguo - just trying my luck."

Jiang Mo really didn't like Li Li's slippery tone, and always felt that Liang Ji had carefully cultivated her. She frowned slightly and asked calmly, "You went so far to find someone, are you familiar with Yang Tangguo?"

"We've known each other for quite a while, but to say 'very familiar'... that's definitely not the case." Li Li curled her lips and snorted, as if concealing a hint of contempt. "If I was really familiar with you, I wouldn't have run to the coffee shop in Qianyang Shopping Mall to try my luck, and you wouldn't have called me and couldn't even tell me who the owner of this number was - oh, and by the way, I'll take the initiative to explain that although I've been to this room several times before and the police should have kept a record of my identity information and contact information, this phone number was registered recently - the group recently established a new foundation in a sanatorium on the outskirts of the city, and for the convenience of registration, this is a new number, so you can check it anyway."

Jiang Mo nodded, holding the ballpoint pen and tapping it twice: "We've known each other for quite a while, when was it?"

"We both come from the same hometown, this shouldn't be hard to check, right?" Li Li shrugged and spread her hands. "I also learned dancing before, and she and I graduated from the same training institution. But I'm older than her, and I learned dancing purely for my specialty, which is different from Yang Tangguo's professional path. We only crossed paths a few times occasionally. Later, we met in Sheng'an, and that's how we got in touch again."

Li Li frowned slightly, "I was in unilateral contact with her for a while, but this girl was... quite aloof and arrogant a few years ago, and later she had a boyfriend. I'm not that ungrateful, so we just nodded our heads when we met. I thought... she really intended to be a professional... who would have thought."

Jiang Mo circled the ballpoint pen and asked, "When did you know about her relationship with Luo Shi?"

"In the business world, at club dinners, since she wants to build a relationship, she'll go in and out of these places a few times, and naturally someone will keep an eye on her."

Li Li slowly curled up the ends of her hair, seemingly nonchalant, "She is just competing with herself. If she wants to take a shortcut, why should she take those reputations so seriously? In the end, they are just labels that others casually put on her."

Jiang Mo frowned when he heard her pimp-like words, "Let me ask you again, when did you know about her relationship with Luo Shi? Why did you suddenly start contacting Yang Tangguo frequently in the past few days? What is your purpose in looking for her?" "...I can't remember exactly when I knew about it. But it must have been earlier than her unlucky boyfriend." Li Li's casual talk was cut off on the spot. She swallowed awkwardly and pursed her lips dryly, "Otherwise I would say that she is too narrow-minded. She chose the path she wanted, so why does she have to argue about it? No matter how naughty Luo Shi is, her family can still find a way to speak in the industry she wants to strive for. Although her reputation is bad now, she can make a name for herself later, and the right to speak is still in her own hands... But she has lost her boyfriend, financial sponsor, and reputation, and she is always trying to commit suicide and saying that she can't live anymore--"

"It's not a shameful fault to have self-esteem. Don't just casually impose your values ​​on others." Jiang Mo raised his hand to block Li Li's subjective criticism. "So you contacted Yang Tangguo because she was trying to commit suicide? How did you know about her situation?"

"Although I... don't quite agree with her idea of ​​wanting to die, but we are from the same hometown after all, I can't just stand by and watch her die." Li Li frowned and sighed, raising her hand to make a mobile phone shape, "During the time when Luo Shi and Xiao Liang were under investigation, someone asked me about the female student I met in the club at that time. I don't know where they heard about Yang Tangguo's school affairs, and they contacted me to say that they wanted to have a meal and get to know each other."

Li Li recalled the attentive and bright eyes of the CEO, and grumbled in disgust, "Given Luo Shi's situation, his family will definitely let him stay quiet for a while. My original intention was to introduce another way out for Yang Tangguo."

Li Li's explanation was not ambiguous. Jiang Mo looked at Li Li's beautiful and powerful eyes with a fierce face, and was silent for two seconds: "She refused. She blocked your original mobile number, so you changed your new number to continue contacting."

Li Li pouted and snorted, struggling for a moment as if she was dissatisfied with being exposed, but in the end she just smiled and didn't intend to respond directly: "I want to persuade her to be more open-minded and not to use the so-called moral shackles to suffocate herself..."

"Since Yang Tangguo is so resistant, she probably won't take the initiative to tell us where she lives now." Jiang Mo tapped the table lightly with his fingers. "How did you know she was near Qianyang Shopping Mall?"

"One time when I was on the phone, I heard the announcement from the parking lot gate of the mall. Qianyang Mall is quite far from her school, and I told her that I was just trying my luck. In fact, we only met yesterday morning." Li Li raised her chin and tapped the computer next to Jiang Mo. "We talked for about half an hour. The surveillance camera of the coffee shop should be able to see it. We didn't quarrel or fight... She had been holding it in for so many days, so she just talked about her ex-boyfriend for a while. I didn't say anything else, but I was sensible and didn't persuade her to try another boss. Unexpectedly, she was hiding in the hotel and didn't know what was going on. She actually said that she was willing to consider it."

"Talk about Korean law?" Jiang Mo raised his eyelids in surprise, "Talk about Korean law with you?"

"Well, according to what she said... everyone thinks that she is the one who let Han Lu down - but in fact, she left school not only because of the rumors in the school." Li Li paused meaningfully for a few seconds, tilted her head to look at Jiang Mo, who was slightly "related" to Han Lu, the "party involved", wrinkled her nose and chewed softly.

"Yang Tangguo said that she was a little 'afraid' of Han Lu."

Due to work and health reasons, I will be working on another day~
