Chapter 151: The End of an Old Case! Returning to the Jiangcheng Police Station!
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation | Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Tang Jiajia was naturally an emotionally volatile person. Besides, her feelings for Tang Xin weren’t as deep as Tang Xin had assumed. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have pursued Yue Fan while knowing he was Tang Xin’s boyfriend.
Of course, Tang Jiajia hadn’t initially planned to kill Tang Xin. She was just a college student, and no matter how bold she was, she wouldn’t suddenly contemplate murder.
Upon returning to her dorm, she closed her curtains and pretended to be going to sleep. Her roommates assumed she was either feeling unwell or upset. Tang Jiajia had often come back from arguments with Tang Xin and isolated herself with the curtains drawn while watching TV. No one paid her much attention, so they didn’t check on her.
Little did they know, while her roommates were briefly away, Tang Jiajia quietly retrieved a fruit knife from her dorm and slipped out. Her roommates assumed she was still in her bed with the TV playing when they returned, so no one checked on her.
At that moment, Tang Jiajia had already evaded the surveillance cameras and arrived at Tang Xin’s home once again. She had a key to the place. When she entered, she saw Tang Xin emerging from the kitchen. Tang Xin assumed she had come to her senses, but what Tang Jiajia did next took her by surprise.
Tang Jiajia lunged at Tang Xin with a knife.
She slashed at her own wrist!
She was attempting suicide!
Tang Jiajia had always known that, in Tang Xin’s heart, family was irreplaceable. Why else had Tang Xin treated her so well since childhood? Why had she insisted on taking her to get an abortion, even though she knew Tang Jiajia was pregnant with Yue Fan’s child, especially after Yue Fan and Tang Xin had broken up?
Tang Jiajia wanted to believe that Tang Xin cared about her. That’s why she dared to threaten her in this way. She had made only a shallow cut, not even breaking the skin.
As expected, Tang Xin immediately pounced on her, trying to wrest the knife away. However, Tang Jiajia screamed and threatened Tang Xin to step back, warning her that if Tang Xin didn’t let Yue Fan out, she would kill herself.
Naturally, Tang Xin didn’t want that. She moved to take the knife away. During their struggle, Tang Xin accidentally got cut…
Seeing her sister collapse in shock, clutching her left ribs, Tang Jiajia was equally stunned. After hesitating for a moment, she contemplated calling an ambulance. Suddenly, she noticed a pregnancy test not far away.
Thinking about the child in her belly and the recent argument they had, Tang Jiajia felt that she didn’t need to make that call after all.
Pregnant women are naturally prone to emotional outbursts, and Tang Jiajia was a rather paranoid person. In that moment, her emotions completely overwhelmed her. She put down her phone, calmly returned to Tang Xin, and began stabbing her with the knife.
She covered Tang Xin’s mouth, and no matter how much Tang Xin struggled, she didn’t stop.
When she finally snapped out of it, Tang Xin was lifeless.
Tang Jiajia felt like she was losing her mind at that moment!
However, she underestimated herself.
Remarkably, she managed to retrace her steps, placing Tang Xin’s body in the freezer and then sitting on the couch, contemplating her next move.
During this time, Tang Jiajia remembered she was pregnant and couldn’t afford to go hungry. Her phone was in the dorm, so she used Tang Xin’s phone to order takeout.
After finishing her meal, Tang Jiajia dismembered Tang Xin’s body into pieces.
Several days later, when the company reported Tang Xin missing, the police were called. By then, Tang Jiajia had disposed of the body, scattering her ashes on the mountainside.
Facing police questioning, Tang Jiajia remained remarkably composed. She had audio evidence from her phone at the time, and her roommates vouched for her, believing she had been in the dorm the whole time, which cleared her of suspicion.
Tang Jiajia was ultimately sentenced to death due to the heinous nature of the crime.
With the case closed, Su Xuan was preparing to leave.
On his last day, Tianyuan and the others invited Su Xuan to a meal.
One reason was to thank Su Xuan for his assistance over the past few days, and the other was to celebrate finally solving the case. They wanted to treat him to a well-deserved feast!
Su Xuan, of course, accepted.
Who would pass up a free meal?
During the meal, Tianyuan, seemingly tipsy from cola, approached Su Xuan and sat down beside him, saying, “What do you think? How did Tang Jiajia have the audacity to take Tang Xin’s body, pack it in trash bags, and carry it down the building in batches?”
“The whole process went unnoticed…”
