Chapter 51: Tan Jiao 08 (2)

I checked my phone after waking up and did not find any message from Wu Yu or a call from him. My mind wandered as I laid on the bed, thinking about the faint air of indifference from Wu Yu. Even when I felt close to him, my heart always felt distant from him.

Then a thought sprung into my mind, Should I consider dating him?

If not, an uncomfortable feeling immediately filled my heart as if a cotton ball was stuck in my heart. Although it was soft, it seemed to be siphoning something away from me.

If yes, I would feel a sense of uneasiness for some reason. These feelings I had were different from what I felt when I fell for a boy in high school or college, which was a pure and blissful feeling.

Why is that?

After receiving a call from Shen Shiyan, I immediately went to find Wu Yu. Unexpectedly, he was still asleep when I got there. I was quite surprised by this, as he would be the one waiting for me at all the other times.

Xiaohua scuttered happily into Wu Yus room before I could tell him not to wake Wu Yu up. Although Xiaohua doing that somewhat annoyed me, I still followed him into Wu Yus room.

I seldomly intruded into a mans room, so I did not expect Wu Yu to be wearing so little. Being considerate, Xiaohua even switched on the light in Wu Yus room and pulled open the curtains. Immediately, the room flooded with light, and Wu Yus lean and muscular back appeared before my eyes. With only a pair of black shorts on, he quickly grabbed the blanket and draped it around his waist after he shot a glance at me. I wondered if he felt embarrassed by this situation.

Acting as if I was not bothered at all, I sat beside the bed and started discussing the case with him.

It was a very significant turning point in the case. The fact that the mans name was Xu Zifeng and not Zhu Shuyun was significant. Yet, what did it mean?

During our discussion, I detected a hint of sulkiness from Wu Yu. The latter seemed somewhat cold and distant. However, we were discussing the case without any problem.

Does he become grumpy when he wakes up?

With that thought, I purposefully teased him. Bro, what are you thinking about?

Who are you calling bro? he said after touching my nose with his hand, seemingly returning to his usual self now.

He asked who I was calling bro?

Falling silent, I did not know how to respond to him and had no choice but to focus the conversation on the case.

Could it be that Xu Zifeng and Zhu Shuyun were friends? They were both mentally handicapped Perhaps thats why they became close? Or did Zhu Shuyun die for some reason, which is why Xu Zifeng decided to avenge his friend? I suggested.

Wu Yu nodded and said, They must have had a close relationship. How else could Xu Zifeng come to know all the details about the Zhu family and the kidnapping of Zhu Shuyun? The fact that Zhu Shuyun could tell Xu Zhifeng everything about his kidnapping means that he was not mentally handicapped. Truth be told, I have some doubts about Xu Zhifeng. Hes practically a crazy person. From the three encounters I had with him, he didnt seem particularly adaptive or intelligent. Yet, we assume someone like him can set up such an elaborate plan. First, he killed two people related to Zhu Shuyuns kidnapping before executing a bait and switch to distract the police. Finally, he even tested the Zhu familys morality.

To me, it seemed unlikely that Xu Zhifeng was the mastermind behind all. Not only that, he even told me that someone else had given him the birds and he had no idea about the letter you received before he died.

I felt shocked as if the fog previously in front of me had been cleared. I took a glance at him, not at all expecting his reasoning to be so logical and deductive. Thats right. Thats what I was thinking about too. You took the words right out of my mouth!

He finally let out a smile after hearing that.
