I became the police station's darling after I could understand what the furry creature was sayi

Chapter 3: Why Suicide? The Real or Fake Heiress?!

"Hello, my name is Nan Punian, and I'm from the Criminal Investigation Detachment of Qingshan District..."

Nan Punian gave a brief self-introduction.

"Regarding the case, there are a few questions we'd like to confirm with you. Could you please come with us to the police station?"

The girl didn't answer immediately. Instead, she took out her phone, glanced at the time, and looked troubled.

"what happened?"

Nan Punian asked with a hint of suspicion, but a wary glint flashed in his eyes.

It appears that Nan Shu was the first to discover the body, but the girl's demeanor was far too calm, and she seemed to have a great understanding of forensic medicine.

It cannot be ruled out that she murdered Wang Yuxin and staged it as a suicide.

and so.

In Nan Punian's mind, Nan Shu is still the prime suspect.

"I've finished asking the questions. Can I stay at the police station for the night?"

Nan Shu pursed her lips and looked up at Nan Punian.

"The dormitory has a midnight curfew, and I don't have any money."

Actually, there's still a little bit left, 56.83 yuan, and I need to hold on for four more days before I can withdraw my salary.

Nan Punian was taken aback, seemingly only then remembering that the girl was a senior who had extended her studies. He was both amused and exasperated: "In return, I will personally provide you with food and lodging tonight."

As he spoke, he couldn't help but think to himself, according to the information, Nan Shu seems to be a local from Hangzhou. Even if she doesn't live on campus, can't she still go home?
However, this didn't seem to be related to the case, so Nan Punian didn't ask any further questions.

Nan Shu gave the man a strange look.

She thought to herself that this person shouldn't be short of money. She knew about the salary system in this world, and it was almost the same as in her previous life. A district branch captain... only earned less than 10,000 a month.

Nan Punian doesn't seem to be a particularly compassionate person.

but.

Who cares? All she knows is that she's found a place to stay for the night, and it's free.

"And my car."

"I will have someone deliver it to the branch office."

Knowing that the girl was short of money, and for some reason, Nan Punian's tone softened.

"Okay, let's go then."

Nan Shu nodded, stood up, patted her trouser legs, returned her coat to the policewoman, and followed Nan Punian into the police car.

……

trial room.

Nan Shu sat in the chair and looked around the room. It was the first time she had observed the interrogation room from this perspective. Opposite her were Nan Punian, who had no expression, and a recorder in a police uniform. The atmosphere was very oppressive.

This experience... is quite novel.

"Ms. Nan, according to our investigation, your last food delivery order was marked as delivered at 9:48 PM, and the address was about one kilometer away from the factory. You called the police at 10:32 PM. May I ask, at that time, why would a young woman like you be inside a factory under closed management?"

A sharp light flashed in Nan Punian's eyes, his aura was imposing, and his tone was slow and deliberate, yet it went straight to the point.

"Much better than Captain Li in my previous life," Nan Shu thought to herself, before calmly stating the reason she had prepared long ago.

Why so late?

Because I work very late, I want to have my own time.

Why did we enter the factory?

I spotted a little squirrel and thought it was cute, so I instinctively followed it.

Aren't you afraid when you're alone?

"I'm scared, but I figured since I'm already here, if there's any danger, the little squirrel should sense it before I do."

Just as Nan Shu couldn't say she was a time traveler, the fact that she could understand the little squirrel's speech was also too incredible.

Nan Shu wasn't stupid; naturally, she wouldn't let anyone find this weakness.

Nan Shu's answers all fit her path, yet they were like a haphazard attack that defeated a master, completely illogical and sounding strange yet inexplicably reasonable.

of course.

Most importantly, Xu Yunli sent over the basic autopsy report. Upon seeing the report, Nan Punian subconsciously glanced at Nan Shu.

She was right. Wang Yuxin... died about six hours ago.

Six hours earlier, the girl had been delivering food in another district and had no time to commit the crime.

and.

According to Xu Yunli's assessment, Wang Yuxin most likely committed suicide.

The questioning has been completed.

Nan Punian personally escorted the girl to the entrance of the branch office. "Let's add each other on WeChat. I've already booked a hotel. I'll send you a screenshot later."

When the two came out, it was already past one o'clock in the morning.

Having unnecessarily delayed the young girl's rest, even the usually aloof Nan Punian couldn't help but feel a little guilty.

"Okay."

Nan Shu didn't stand on ceremony. She took out her phone, added the friend, and glanced at the screenshot message sent by Nan Punian. She couldn't help but raise an eyebrow. It was a five-star hotel.

A standard room costs 560 yuan, which is more than she earns in a day of delivering takeout.

She's going to fight these rich people to the death!

"that……"

Nan Punian paused in his steps as he walked back, then turned to look at Nan Shu.

Nan Shu looked up and said, "I saw that the police are offering a reward of 10,000 yuan for providing clues and finding the person."

Nan Punian paused for a moment, as if he had just remembered this matter, and was immediately at a loss for words.

"Yes, I'll submit the approval process today. Send me some information later. If all goes well, you should receive your after-tax bonus in the next day or two."

Based on the tax rate, the net income after tax should be over 8,000.

Nan Punian had been watching the girl closely and noticed that after he said those words, her almond-shaped eyes lit up and the corners of her lips curled up, showing a hint of playfulness that was somewhat in line with her age.

"Okay, thank you for your help, Team Leader Nan."

Thinking of the extra eight thousand yuan, Nan Shu felt all the fatigue of the day disappear, and she could deliver food for another night!

"polite."

Nan Punian seemed to be infected by the smile and finally showed his first smile of the day. But he froze when he saw the name that suddenly jumped on the screen. It was a call from Wang Yuxin's mother.

Nan Shu noticed the change in Nan Punian's mood and tactfully took her leave. Nan Punian also lost interest in chatting.

Wang Yuxin has been found, but many questions remain.

For example, why did she commit suicide?

……

Step into the Hilton Hotel.

Nan Shu handed her ID card to the front desk. "Hello, I'd like to check in."

In both her lifetimes combined, Nan Shu had never stayed in a five-star hotel.

In her past life, she had a little money but no time; now she has neither money nor time. Having transmigrated once, she's actually regressing in her life.

"Nan Shu?"

A hoarse voice, tinged with doubt, sounded from behind.

Nan Shu took the room key and turned to look at the speaker.

The man wore a well-tailored dark blue suit, had slicked-back hair, and was fairly handsome. Standing next to him was a middle-aged man around forty years old, wearing a white shirt and black-rimmed glasses. He was not tall and exuded a refined and easygoing air.

Nan Shu quickly found the corresponding person from the original owner's memories.

Nan Yanhui, the original owner's fake older brother.

Before leaving his family with nothing, he had just become the deputy general manager of Nan's Construction.

"Really you?"

Nan Yanhui met the girl's eyes, subconsciously frowning. He instinctively felt that Nan Shu seemed different, but then thought he was probably overthinking it. He took a step forward, almost questioning her:

"What are you doing here? You're staying in a hotel alone? Where did you get the money? Nan Shu, I thought you'd learned your lesson after what happened with Wanwan, but I never expected you to..."
