Glorious God Throne

Chapter 17

Tian Yin’s steps paused for a moment.

She suddenly turned her head, her eyebrows furrowed. “What?”

Li Fufeng, as if completely unable to read the room, still spoke frankly. “Sorry, I’m a bit curious and always like to explore. If I have offended…”

“If you know it’s offensive, then stop.”

This slender girl, who always gave a sense of softness, showed such firmness for the first time. Her words were sharp as a knife, “I’m not a suspect. Even if you, Officer Li, have a special status, you don’t have the right to pry into my privacy, do you?”

Li Fufeng was not angry at all, but rather murmured thoughtfully. “It seems that this doctor really holds a special place in your heart…”

Tian Yin fell silent.

She clenched her fists bit by bit.

“Fine, since you insist on knowing, I’ll tell you.” Tian Yin began to speak word by word, “I don’t know what the doctor’s identity is in reality, I only know that he is a good doctor. At least, he saved me.”

A struggle appeared on Tian Yin’s face, and she was silent for a while before she began. “I’m not my parents’ biological daughter. Three years ago, I was just an orphan who had just entered high school and lost her biological parents. Because I had no other relatives, my homeroom teacher, Teacher Gu, and his family adopted me. My new parents were very good to me…”

“But since my mother fell ill and died nine months ago, my father started to act strangely, he began to care about me very, very much. At first, he strictly controlled my time, every day I was either at school or at home, I couldn’t go anywhere.”

“He didn’t allow me to interact with strangers outside, telling me that bad people outside would try to kidnap me.”

“…Then it was talking to male classmates at school. If my father saw it, he would scold me severely when I got home, forbidding me to date early. Even if I explained, it was useless.”

“Later, going home on weekends to see my grandparents was the most relaxing time for me. At other times, every move I made was under my father’s watchful eye, he was like a shadow. I couldn’t establish even a temporary relationship with anyone.”

“…One day, after I finished taking a bath and came out of the bathroom, I found my father standing by the bed, staring at the bathroom door. His eyes were terrifying. I was scared! I felt like I was suffocating!”

“…But this was not the most terrifying part. One day not long after, my father suddenly moved his luggage into my room. He said he wanted to watch me all the time, and I could never, never, never escape from him.”

As she narrated, Tian Yin’s tone became elusive. Her gaze also became unfocused.

“So day by day, I felt sick. Very sick. I didn’t know if it was my father who was crazy or me, the world in my eyes became very strange…”

“I suddenly felt that everything in front of me was false, just a dream. If I died in the dream, I could wake up, right?” The girl’s voice was barely audible, “Just when I was preparing to do so, the doctor found me.”

“He said he was a psychologist who hadn’t received a certificate, and was accumulating relevant experience for himself. He saw my distress on an anonymous forum. He was willing to help me, as a way to accumulate new cases.”

“I don’t know why, but I believed him.”

“Those words that I couldn’t tell anyone in reality, I told him all at once. In retrospect, I was like a babbling madman at the time, full of disjointed nonsense.”

“…The doctor was really amazing, during his treatment, I felt myself getting better. This false, distorted world, began to recover bit by bit.”

A smile reappeared on Tian Yin’s face, her tone was full of heartfelt gratitude, and there was an imperceptible fanaticism in her eyes.

“It was then that I realized. Both my father and I were sick, we both needed treatment. I recommended my father to the doctor, hoping that everything could return to the way it was at the beginning.”

Hearing this, Li Fufeng, who had been silent all along, finally spoke, “So, did the doctor guide you on how to deal with him?”

“No, why would you think that?” Tian Yin’s tone was surprised, she seemed to have completely detached from the dark memories, and regained her firm and cold tone, “I admit you are very good at expanding your thinking, but it’s better to say less without basis. The doctor is a good person who understands others!”

“My father’s car accident was really too unexpected for me, I had already introduced him to the doctor, wanting to cure him. Who could have thought, a wanted murderer was hiding among us all along, and just like that, took his life!”

The girl’s face was expressionless, she sighed disinterestedly.

Perhaps she already knew, even without evidence, the person across from her had guessed the truth, so she didn’t bother to pretend anymore.

“——Everything ended just like that.”

“About that five thousand yuan…”

“That five thousand yuan was a symbolic consultation fee charged by the doctor, although I think it’s far from enough. I will always be grateful to him.”

Li Fufeng fell silent.

Tian Yin’s words were almost watertight, or rather, even if there were loopholes, they couldn’t touch her. After all, in this case, she was just a character who opened the memo in front of the murderer, unintentionally provoking him.

Perhaps she had played another role in front of Gu Fangyou, guiding his actions. But apart from Gu Fangyou himself, who had died, no one would reveal the answer.

…What bad intentions could such a little girl have? Did she instigate the murderer to kill?

“Officer Li, do you still have any further doubts?”

“If not, then I’ll leave first. After all, my grandparents have been waiting at home for so long, they must be anxious.”

When Li Fufeng came back to his senses from his contemplation, he saw that Tian Yin had returned to her previous state, as if the tense atmosphere of confrontation just now didn’t exist.

Before leaving, she didn’t forget to add with a smile, “Also, regarding your unauthorized investigation into my privacy, I may complain to the police station later, I hope you understand.”

Watching the girl’s retreating figure, Li Fufeng stood in place and suddenly spoke, “Do you think what she said is all true?”

“Seventy percent true, thirty percent false, I guess.”

Liu Ningshuang, who had appeared at some point, continued the conversation.

Li Fufeng nodded, “Of course, she doesn’t trust us. Or rather, she doesn’t trust anyone other than the doctor. Of course, she wouldn’t lay everything out. For example, does she really think that Gu Fangyou was sick? And the doctor’s treatment method, I’m also curious.”

When he mentioned the name Gu Fangyou, a strange emotion flashed in Li Fufeng’s eyes. But the person was already dead, the one who would suffer the most would only be the living.

After a long time, he just slowly exhaled, “But, really amazing.”

“Yeah, she’s not even 18 yet, and she has such a strong psychological quality, able to control her emotions so perfectly… Some of her emotions just now were deliberately shown. Except when it comes to the doctor, it’s from the heart.” Liu Ningshuang sighed, her tone complex, “Such a girl, indeed amazing.”

“I’m talking about the person behind her, that doctor.”

Li Fu Feng shook his head.

“Borrowing a knife to kill, and can perfectly remove himself, as if invisible. Even if all the truth is revealed, she won’t have any charges on her… really amazing.”

“Yeah, even if it can be checked, to verify your guess, but the one who chose to kill was Liu Quan himself, no one instigated him.”

Liu Ningshuang also sighed in admiration from the bottom of her heart.

But compared to her companion’s excessive sense of justice and curiosity that sought to get to the bottom of things, Liu Ningshuang was more emotional.

She looked in the direction the girl had left, her gaze somewhat pitiful. “Since the final result is no different, why go to great lengths to uncover all the secrets? Perhaps, the truth will only hurt everyone.”

Whether it was Tian Yin, or the two old people.

“Perhaps.” Li Fufeng had a different idea, “But no matter how hurtful the truth is, it’s still the truth.”

His tone was very firm. “And what I care about is not Tian Yin, but that doctor.”

“By controlling others’ personalities and weaknesses, enticing others to act according to his own ideas, like manipulating puppets. And he himself stays behind the scenes, achieving all his goals…Such a person, if left unchecked, is really too dangerous.”

“Look, once someone discovers your weakness, this is the outcome of being at their mercy.”

As soon as he entered the game, Bai Yi found the cat that he had messed with in the previous round. The cat was now spirited and had completely forgotten its previous painful experience.

He stroked the cat while giving it a lesson, his smile very bright.

“As a cat that can be easily lured out by a few small fish, you should reflect on yourself.”

As he spoke, he lifted the cat’s two paws with both hands, staring seriously at those round eyes.

“Meow~~~” The cat made a soft, powerless sound.

“Do you understand?” The hateful bipedal beast didn’t let the cat go.

“Meow!!!” Super fierce.jpg

After giving the kitten a theory lesson, regardless of whether it understood or not, Bai Yi began to prepare for practice.

His gaze swept over the task bar floating in front of him.

[Task 1: Kill someone at will, prove your courage.]

[Task 2: Complete a wonderful murder, prove your wisdom.]

[Task 3: Manipulate others to complete an unexpected murder, break away from the crowd of ordinary people, and prove to the world–you are an existence far above them!]

“The tasks have actually changed…”

“This is really the first time for such a thing.”
