“What exactly is it for?” Mei Yun stared coldly at her. “You must tell everything clearly to me today!”

Mei Mu seemed startled by his stern gaze, gasping for breath, trembling all over. “Dad, please don’t ask… Follow current s on ɴovᴇl_Firᴇ.ɴet

“Speak up!” Mei Yun had completely lost his patience.

He was afraid that Mei Mu might provoke Mei Shu again.

Shouted at like this, Mei Mu quickly shed tears. She spoke with a choked voice, “Dad, 1 didn’t talk about anything else with Master Si. I just wanted him to help me… 1 just want to see my mom once. 1 really don’t mean anything else!”

At these words, Mei Yun’s angry expression momentarily became blank. “Is that so?”

Mei Mu nodded sadly. “Dad, ever since I came out of the juvenile detention center, I’ve already figured it out. 1 really won’t expect things that are not meant to be mine. I’m just worried about Mom… I didn’t dare to mention it to you. I was afraid you would be angry with Mom and wouldn’t forgive her. I know Master Si is a capable person, so I asked for his help.”

Mei Yun sighed in relief, and his expression instantly softened. “So, you just want to see your mom. That’s reasonable. What did Master Si say?”

Mei Mu tearfully replied, “Master Si accepted my gift, but he didn’t say when he would take me to the police station to see my mother.”

Mei Yun stood up, realizing that his attitude just now was not good. He walked over to Mei Mu with a guilty look, lowered his voice, and said, “Alright, go back to your room and rest. Your mom and 1 are a married couple after all. Even if Master Si doesn’t help you, 1 will find a way for you. But there’s something 1 need to make clear to you.”

“What is it?” Mei Mu had a feeling that what he was about to say might not be good news. She timidly raised her head, her watery eyes staring at him without blinking.

Mei Yun said in a cold tone, “When your mom is released from prison, I will discuss a divorce with her. What she did is unforgivable, but rest assured, you are my daughter. I will support you through college. You don’t need to worry about that.”

At these words, Mei Mu was shocked and couldn’t stop crying. Her figure swayed, and she almost fell to the ground.

It was Mei Yun’s quick reaction that prevented her from falling. Otherwise, she would have hit the table corner.

Mei Shu quietly listened to the conversation between father and daughter. Then she slowly returned to her room, feeling indescribable emotions.

The next day, Captain Wang called her and asked her to come to the police station for further investigation.

Mei Shu took a leave and went to the police station by taxi.

When she arrived, she found that Captain Wang had already watched the surveillance video but unfortunately, the results were not satisfactory.

“I believe the colleagues who were in charge of the case did their best at the time,” he said, taking out the surveillance footage from that night and placing it in front of Mei Shu.

The surveillance footage clearly showed that from beginning to end, only Bai Ling approached her own car.

Seeing that Bai Ling was walking in and out of the manor, looking obviously anxiously, Mei Shu asked in confusion, “What is she doing?”

Bai Ling was holding a white plastic bucket that looked quite heavy.

“I’ve read the case file. It says that your mother discovered the brake fluid was insufficient after arriving at the manor that day. So she asked the manager of the manor to borrow some brake fluid.”

He then cooperatively took out the interrogation records from that night, detailing the detailed questions and answers between the police and the manor manager.

Mei Shu frowned. “Although 1 don’t drive, I’ve heard of a possibility. If different kinds of brake fluid are mixed, there is a certain possibility of brake failure, especially when the car is going downhill on a mountain road. This failure becomes particularly obvious, right?”

“Yes, the police in charge at that time obviously thought of this point. So they conducted a report on the extracted brake fluid from the oil drum.” Captain Wang took out another set of documents and handed them to her. “This is a comparative report between the extracted substances and the brake fluid your mother regularly bought from the auto repair shop. The result shows that there is no possibility of mixed use of brake fluid, so we can rule out the possibility that the brake failure was caused by this factor.”

The report denied this possibility. If Mei Shu hadn’t known in advance that her mother’s death was due to brake failure, she would probably have believed that her mother’s speeding down the cliff was just an accident because she didn’t slow down in time.

She carefully read through the report and records, and the scene of the car accident that happened years ago kept replaying in her mind. Her breathing gradually became somewhat rapid.

Captain Wang was worried about her state and suddenly interrupted her thoughts. “Are you okay? Do you want to take a break?”

Mei Shu shook her head, suddenly thinking of something, and furrowed her brows. “You only investigated who approached my mother’s car that night. But did you also check what Old Wang and Zhou Nan were doing that night?”

At these words, Captain Wang sighed. “i checked the attendance records of the manor on the day of the incident. It shows that Old Wang took sick leave that day. It’s been so many years, and investigating her whereabouts that day is too difficult..”
