I Asked You To Simulate A Crime, And You Pulled Off The Perfect Crime? - Chapter 145

(TL Note: Warning: Disturbing content incoming, please read with caution.)

Boom. The moment Liang Wei stepped into the morgue and shut the door behind him, he felt his legs go weak. The next instant, his body pitched forward suddenly and he collapsed straight onto the ground!

“?!”

“Is he dead?!”

“Wait, did Chen Shu drug the bread on purpose and poison him to death?”

“Chen Shu’s a doctor, he could’ve easily accessed the hospital’s supplies. Maybe he really laced the bread with something deadly and killed Liang Wei that way.”

“No way, this feels unsatisfying. Would’ve been better if he just stabbed him to death.”

“Exactly, I tuned in to see some stabbing action, not this!”

Creak. Just then, the morgue door opened again, and a white figure stepped into the dim light. He glanced faintly at Liang Wei, who lay on the ground, then shut the door behind him.

“Guys, everyone head to Chen Shu’s stream now.”

“I’m here, bro. Let’s see what Chen Shu does on his final day.”

“Probably eat breakfast, take a nap, then wait for the cops to come arrest him.”

In an instant, all the viewers gathered in Chen Shu’s stream. Thanks to the camera mounted on his chest, they could see him walking slowly down the corridor. But just as he was about to go upstairs to the second floor he suddenly turned and headed toward the back of the hospital instead.

His steps were slow as if he were carefully sensing something hidden in the darkness.

“Where’s he going?”

“That direction… isn’t that where Liang Wei was hiding his wife?”

“Wait, is he really going to see her? I thought that was just a joke!”

“Hold on, how does he even know where Liang Wei’s wife is hiding?”

“Don’t forget, when Chen Shu first entered Liang Wei’s room, he smelled the scent of a corpse. Maybe his nose is sharp enough to follow the scent trail and find her.”

“Kill Liang Wei, take his wife!”

“Chen Shu: ‘You dare threaten my sister? Then I’ll sleep with your wife. Now we’re even.’”

Chen Shu reached the overgrown backyard of the hospital. The sound of his legs brushing against the grass “shhh, shhh” echoed in the stream. Suddenly, Chen Shu stopped.

His gaze dropped, locking onto the figure of Liang Wei’s wife, who was hiding in the tall grass like a shy girl, too embarrassed to show herself.

“Hello, sister-in-law. I’m here,” Chen Shu called out softly. Then he raised his right hand, took the camera pinned to his chest, and stuffed it inside his shirt.

Instantly, the stream went pitch black.

“?!”

“The bastard, he hid the camera on purpose so we can’t see!”

“Sh*t! Is he really going to screw Liang Wei’s wife?!”

“Hey! I paid for a premium membership and you’re not even showing the good stuff?!”

“Move the damn camera! Liang Wei let us watch him kiss his wife, and you won’t even show this?!”

“I’m desperate here, I already took my pants off!”

“Where’s the director? Make Chen Shu move that camera right now!”

“I’m a premium annual subscriber, I demand to see him fooling around with Liang Wei’s wife! Otherwise, I’m getting a refund! Hurry up, I want to see!”

Inside the director’s booth. Zhang Sheng was completely stunned. With all the things he’d seen over the years, things from foreign places and many other unspeakable things… never anything like what Chen Shu was doing now!

He’d thought Liang Wei was already outrageous, daring to kiss his own wife on stream, but Chen Shu was even more insane!

“Director, should we tell Chen Shu to bring the camera out?” a staff member asked through the earpiece.

“Hmm…” Zhang Sheng hesitated. He really couldn’t imagine what Chen Shu’s purpose was for deliberately hiding the camera in front of Liang Wei’s wife.

After all, Liang Wei was dead, and the investigation team could easily confirm it by checking the fingerprints on the shovel. Soon, the police would arrest him. What more could he possibly do?

Even if he still had some plan, against this mountain of evidence, it was all pointless.

A waste of effort!

“Forget it. Let him be for now. What if he really…?” Zhang Sheng cautiously refused. “I’ve always felt something was off with Chen Shu’s mind. What if, seeing a woman, dead or alive, he really does it? That’d ruin the show’s reputation.”

Time ticked by, second after second. About fifty minutes later, Chen Shu finally took the camera from his shirt again. By then, he was already back in his office, lying limply on the folding bed.

“Whew~ I’m exhausted,” Chen Shu muttered as he pulled up the blanket and crawled under it.

The stream exploded.

“Legend. Chen Shu’s an absolute legend.”

“For real, fifty minutes! I can barely last five!”

“He’s committed three crimes now! First, killed Sakura, second, poisoned Liang Wei and third, necrophilia… What the hell is this man? Liang Wei’s probably not resting in peace anymore.”

“Liang Wei: I don’t get it, how does he even manage that? Isn’t it awkward? I can’t even kiss without knocking teeth.”

“Killed the man, slept with his wife, Chen Shu can now rest easy in bed and wait for the cops to show up.”

June 4th, 8:00 AM. Chen Shu shot straight to the top of the trending list. Nearly every social media platform had him dominating the top ten, #ChenShuAndLiangWei’sWife#, #DateWithACorpse# and #ChenShuHelloSisterInLaw#

3:00 PM. City Bureau, Criminal Investigation Department Office.

Tap, tap. A flurry of hurried footsteps sounded as Qin Min burst into the office holding the lab report. “Captain Wang! Mr. Yamamoto! Hao Ran!”

“This case is as complicated as we feared!” Qin Min exclaimed.

Yamamoto Yuu asked, “What did you find? Whose blood was under the file cabinet? And whose fingerprints were on the shovel?”

Qin Min took a sip of water and said, “The blood under the file cabinet was Liang Wei’s. And the fingerprints on the handle of the shovel were Chen Shu’s. In other words, just as we suspected, everyone else in that hospital played a part in your daughter’s death.”

“Chen Shu!” Yamamoto Yuu ignored everything else. “The shovel was found at the crime scene. It had blood on it, which means this shovel was the murder weapon used to kill my daughter.”

“I don’t care who else was there. All I know is Chen Shu held that shovel and killed my daughter!”

“Looks like this is how it went. Liang Wei first went to the nurse’s office and fought with my daughter. She used the file cabinet to pin him underneath, but he struggled free, causing the office to end up a mess. Then, Chen Shu came out of the restroom and struck my daughter with the shovel, killing her.”

“Su Xiaoxiao saw everything. Knowing she wouldn’t live long anyway, she took the blame for her brother!”

“Yes. The whole picture is finally clear!”
