“Can you guys tell me what you saw when you went there?”

“And also, their address, please.”

In the midst of the two puzzled police officers’ gazes, Su Xuan spoke with a serious expression.

This statement left Zhou Qiang, who was standing nearby, bewildered.

“No, Su Xuan…”

“What’s this about?”

Su Xuan turned to his colleague with a tilted head.

“Yesterday, while having dinner with my girlfriend, we encountered a couple.”

“They seemed a bit strange, and I’m not entirely comfortable with it.”

Who was Su Xuan?

He was a rising star in their department!

If Su Xuan felt that something was off, then it probably was!

“Okay, I’ll tell you what we saw when we went over.”

“Besides the fact that the guy is quite fond of the girl, there didn’t seem to be anything unusual.”

“To be precise, the guy’s affection for the girl seems to have reached a certain level, and he’s willing to provide whatever she wants.”

“This aspect seems a bit… unusual.”

“But it was still a normal interaction. Afterward, they went home, and we didn’t follow them.”

“Is there something wrong with that?” The officer who was speaking looked at Su Xuan and asked.

Su Xuan furrowed his brows.

“I can’t say for sure right now.”

“Yesterday, it was just a gut feeling that something was off. Thanks for your help!” He said to the officer.

The officer immediately waved his hand, feeling that being able to assist Su Xuan was a good thing, and they didn’t feel burdened at all. They were even happy to receive Su Xuan’s gratitude.

Who didn’t know that Su Xuan was a well-known figure in their police station now?

After learning the situation, Su Xuan walked out of the police station’s gate.

This time, Zhou Qiang didn’t follow.

While he often went to find Su Xuan, unfortunately, this time he had other cases to attend to.

Su Xuan felt a bit lost about it. After all, for so long, Zhou Qiang had always been by his side working on cases together. Suddenly having one less person around felt a bit awkward.

However…

Su Xuan changed into plain clothes, and this situation actually made it easier for him to observe people.

Especially that guy dressed in red, Su Xuan was genuinely curious about why this guy exuded such a strong red aura but had no criminal record.

After a morning of investigation, Su Xuan had a basic understanding of the situation.

But it was precisely because of this that Su Xuan felt that these two individuals were even more suspicious.

Firstly, Su Xuan discovered that the woman was originally a petite girl, weighing only about 90 pounds. She had met her boyfriend, Zhang Zehao, five years ago.

Zhang Zehao had a younger brother, and due to a difficult childbirth when their mother gave birth to him, he was not favored at home. This situation led to a desire for a wealthy bride. So, when he met Deng Jingjing, the two quickly hit it off and started dating.

However, initially, they had planned for Zhang Zehao to marry into a wealthy family in the future, with the family estate going to his younger brother. But Zhang’s mother changed her mind and insisted that Deng Jingjing marry into their family instead. This created difficulties in their young relationship.

In fact, when Zhang Zehao’s younger brother needed a bone marrow transplant later on, it turned out that Deng Jingjing was a match. In order to save her boyfriend’s brother, she agreed to donate her bone marrow, with the promise from Zhang’s mother that they could marry once the younger brother recovered.

Deng Jingjing genuinely loved Zhang Zehao and believed that she was still young and could bring herself back. So, she agreed to the donation. However, after the transplant, Zhang’s mother reneged on her promises and even kicked Zhang Zehao out of the house, leaving them without a marriage certificate.

Deng Jingjing’s health took a significant hit after the bone marrow donation, and she developed a binge-eating disorder.

Investigating up to this point, everything seemed normal.

Su Xuan even began to wonder if he had made a mistake in his suspicions, as there seemed to be no issues with these two individuals based on their records.

It wasn’t until Su Xuan discovered that a few years ago, Deng Jingjing’s father had an illegitimate child. Upon realizing that her daughter had donated bone marrow to a man who might not even marry her and had jeopardized her health, he cut off her financial support.

Su Xuan: ?

He didn’t really want to delve into this soap opera-like storyline.

Although he had these thoughts, Su Xuan quickly noticed something amiss.

After Zhang Zehao’s mother kicked him out of the house, Deng Jingjing’s father also cut off her financial support. This meant that neither of them had any source of income.

Considering Deng Jingjing’s current condition, living alone wasn’t suitable for her. While they had a house, they could stay at Deng Jingjing’s place—it was an inheritance from her mother and belonged solely to her.

However, the past few years had brought living expenses, utility bills, and various other expenses, not to mention Deng Jingjing’s substantial appetite.

So, here was the question: How did two people without income or jobs manage to survive for so long without starving to death?

Su Xuan even considered the possibility that they were taking online orders. After all, it was a job they could do from home. But there was no record of Zhang Zehao or Deng Jingjing working online.

This caught Su Xuan’s attention, along with the persistent red circle that nearly enveloped Zhang Zehao. The more he thought about it, the more something seemed off.

“System, let me ask you something,” Su Xuan said. “Is it possible that they haven’t been tagged with a sin value, but the red circle is just late in showing up because of a delayed sin value?ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ N(o)vᴇl(ꜰ)ire.nᴇt

“Zhang Zehao just seems… very suspicious, no matter how you look at it!”

[Ding! You’ve asked this question before, Host.]

[The system wouldn’t encounter such issues.]

Once again, when the host questioned if the system was malfunctioning, the system immediately responded.

But Su Xuan, having been deceived by the malevolent system once before, quickly countered, “Is the red circle related to moral wrongdoing? What exactly is the red circle surrounding Zhang Zehao? You should tell me this.”

Having been tricked by the sinister system in the past, Su Xuan wasn’t going to be deceived again.

“It’s related to moral wrongdoing,” the system replied. “I am a criminal system, and in a way, anyone committing a crime will be identified by the system. However, based on the law, not all forms of wrongdoing are considered crimes. So, after considering the laws, the system categorizes those who commit moral wrongdoings as ‘moral criminals.'”

Su Xuan:…

He seemed to understand now.

So, Zhang Zehao hadn’t violated laws, but he had indeed committed moral wrongdoing, right?

“Ah…” Su Xuan lowered his head.

He had to admit that this situation was a bit troublesome. He needed to consider how to proceed.

After learning that the person in question hadn’t committed a crime, should he continue the investigation? This was a crucial question!

If he continued the investigation but found no criminal activity, he wouldn’t even have the authority to bring the person in for questioning at the police station.

However, if he didn’t investigate further…

Su Xuan couldn’t get past this dilemma in his mind!
