Because You Are Not Beside Me

編集者: EndlessFantasy Translation

It was raining in the mountains late into the night.

Mu Qiqi and Feng Shanshan were staying in a simple room, because that was all that location could offer.

Feng Shanshan did not like the dampness, and so tried to chat up Mu Qiqi. "Aren't you worried that Old Sheng would try something against your family?"

"I'm not. Whatever he tries would never work anyway." Mu Qiqi said drowsily, only wanting a good rest—the bumpy four-hour ride up to the mountains was already too tiring.

However, even before they could turn the lights off, someone called out, "We've got another body. Forensics, hurry up."

It was a border between Jianchuan and another city, which was why there was a joint operation.

Mu Qiqi and Feng Shanshan promptly leaped to their feet. The police were already gathered outside their door, and everyone was holding black umbrellas as they headed toward the scene where the dead body was found.
