After understanding animal language, the villainous girl is guaranteed to become a heartthrob.

Chapter 67 I Want to Be Your Man

"A suspicious person?" The Brazilian tortoise slowly crawled across the conference table. "Turtles don't understand what a suspicious person is."

Jiang Yuan frowned slightly, thought for a few seconds, and then asked, "When Guigui was sleeping yesterday morning, was there anyone else at home besides Qiu Ailin?"

"Besides the awful two-legged creatures, there's an even worse one," the Brazilian tortoise said with obvious disgust.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuan narrowed her eyes slightly and quickly translated her words for Meng Xiaokai to record. She then asked the Brazilian tortoise, "Is that even worse two-legged creature a man or a woman?"

"It's male." The red-eared slider got angry when he mentioned it. "Hmph! He goes too far, always calling me an old turtle! I'm only three years old, how can I be old? Besides, I'm not a turtle!"

After translating, Jiang Yuan asked with a serious expression, "Turtle, when did this male go there?"

The Brazilian tortoise shook its head: "The tortoise doesn't know what time it was either, but it went after dark, so it didn't need to sleep!"

Jiang Yuan translated again, but before she could finish speaking, the Brazilian tortoise looked at her in confusion: "Why do you always imitate a tortoise's voice?"

Jiang Yuan: "..."

“I didn’t imitate your speech.” She was both amused and exasperated, explaining helplessly, “I was just translating what you were saying to my colleague, who doesn’t understand turtle language.”

The Brazilian tortoise asked curiously, "Then how do you understand?"

"I'll answer that question later." Jiang Yuan remembered the important matter and couldn't let a tortoise distract her. "Tortoise, can you describe what that man looks like?"

After Jiang Yuan finished speaking, she felt that this question was too difficult for the Brazilian turtle.

After all, it's only a three-year-old turtle, and might not even be an adult yet.

Unexpectedly, the Brazilian tortoise said seriously, "Let the tortoise think about it."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuan felt a surge of anticipation. She gazed at the Brazilian tortoise, her beautiful eyes sparkling.

I'm sorry, she shouldn't have underestimated the turtle.

The Brazilian tortoise recalled, "That male biped had curly hair, small eyes, and a big nose..."

Jiang Yuan quickly repeated its words so that Meng Xiaokai could write them down.

After the Brazilian tortoise finished speaking, she pressed on, "Tortoise, do you know what this male's name is? Or rather, what does Qiu Ailin call him?"

The Brazilian tortoise pondered with difficulty: "When the tortoise hears the female two-legged creature calling 'Xiao Tao,' the male two-legged creature will respond."

"Well done, turtle." Jiang Yuan rewarded the Brazilian turtle with a slice of apple. "You're amazing!"

Meng Xiaokai looked at the contents of the notebook with a serious expression: "If Guigui is certain that there were other people in the family when Qiu Ailin had the accident, then the possibility of homicide is very high."

He stood up. "I'll take it to the boss to take a look."

After Meng Xiaokai left, the Brazilian tortoise started chatting with Jiang Yuan again.

"You still haven't told the turtle how you can hear it talking?"

Jiang Yuan smiled and beckoned to it with her finger: "Come closer, and I'll tell you."

The Brazilian tortoise crawled up to her, stretching its neck as it went, "Is this close enough?"

“Close enough.” Jiang Yuan’s smile deepened as she lowered her voice and said, “Because I have a system that rewards me with the ability to understand an animal language as long as I complete a task.”

The Brazilian tortoise seemed to understand but not quite: "What is a system?"

Jiang Yuan didn't know how to explain it to it, so she could only change the subject: "Turtle, think about it carefully again, did Qiu Ailin and Xiao Tao have a fight yesterday?"

"The tortoise has to use its brain again!" The Brazilian tortoise started bargaining, "Then you have to give the tortoise another piece of sweet and sour fruit."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuan raised an eyebrow and said with a smile, "That's easy. As long as you can provide more information, I guarantee you'll eat and drink well every day." The Brazilian tortoise was very tempted: "Eat and drink well every day? Are you lying to me, tortoise?"

Jiang Yuan said earnestly, "I'm not lying to you."

The Brazilian tortoise is going all out to ensure it gets good food and water every day.

As the Brazilian tortoise struggled to recall yesterday, there was a knock on the conference room door.

Si Heng and Meng Xiaokai pushed open the door and walked in.

Meeting Jiang Yuan's bright eyes, Si Heng's thin lips moved slightly: "Yesterday we investigated the scene and found no trace of anyone else. If this person named Xiao Tao was there yesterday, then he deliberately cleaned up the scene."

He paused slightly, then continued, "The surveillance footage didn't capture the curly-haired, small-eyed man that Turtle mentioned entering or leaving the apartment. He's very likely a resident of the apartment as well."

Jiang Yuan nodded: "I'll have Gui Gui recall the conversation between Xiao Tao and Qiu Ailin yesterday."

Si Heng's eyes softened as he said softly, "Thank you for your hard work."

Meng Xiaokai was stunned, staring at him with wide eyes.

This...this must be hard work?

Si Heng ignored his gaze and continued, "Dai Ruofei's first reaction upon seeing you this morning was to say that you were the murderer, which means she may very well know the truth about Qiu Ailin's fall."

Jiang Yuan thought so too. She frowned and said, "But Dai Ruofei's statement seems to be conveying the message that Qiu Ailin committed suicide."

“So, she’s very suspicious.” Si Heng’s eyes narrowed slightly, his voice turning cold. “She seems to be trying to hide something.”

"Family members! Turtle remembers!" the Brazilian tortoise suddenly shouted.

Jiang Yuan immediately looked at it, "What did you think of?"

Meng Xiaokai quickly opened his notebook and sat down.

The Brazilian tortoise tilted its head back to look at her. "That male two-legged creature said he wants a female two-legged creature to be his girlfriend!"

Jiang Yuan waited for it to continue, but it fell silent again.

She had no choice but to press further: "Turtle, and then what? Why didn't you say anything?"

The Brazilian tortoise slowly said, "The tortoise is just wondering what a girlfriend really means."

Jiang Yuan: "..."

What an adventurous turtle!

She stretched out a finger and touched the turtle's head. "I'll explain it to you in a bit. Tell me what you think first, okay?"

The Brazilian tortoise nodded its head and slowly said, "The male two-legged creature said, 'Linlin, my darling, I love you!' The female two-legged creature then said, 'Xiao Tao, in my eyes you're just a little brother!'"

It paused for a few seconds before continuing, "The male biped said, 'I don't want to be your brother, I want to be your man.'"

It was about to fall asleep when it was woken up by those two awful two-legged creatures. It glared angrily at them and just then saw Xiao Tao reach out to hug Qiu Ailin.

Brazilian tortoise: "At that time, the male hugged the female and even tried to bite her with his mouth. The female was unwilling and said that the male was shameless and didn't know what he was, like a toad trying to eat swan meat."

"Sigh, none of my family members understand, and the turtle doesn't want to watch at all!" Life is tough, the Brazilian tortoise sighed again.

Meng Xiaokai wrote these words down in his notebook, and after reading them carefully, he analyzed: "In other words, Xiao Tao confessed his feelings to Qiu Ailin but was rejected, so he turned his love into hatred and pushed her off the building!"

Jiang Yuan also thought it was possible, "Now we need to find this Xiao Tao first."
