Chapter 972: The Inevitability Of Life

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

Tao Yueyue caught up with Lin Dongxue and asked what was wrong. Lin Dongxue said in a flustered manner, "I heard the music during Liu Qiang's phone call from that supermarket. He isn’t out of town at all. If he dares to lie to the police, there must be something wrong with him!"

Tao Yueyue recalled, "Speaking of which, a man in a gray coat passed us by just now."

The two rushed back to Liu Qiang's house in a hurry, and they heard a woman screaming from inside. "Help! Me! Murder!"

"Liu Qiang, stop! We are the police!" Lin Dongxue shouted, and rammed the door hard, but the solid burglar-proof door couldn't be opened at all.

"Sister Lin, let me do it!"

Tao Yueyue took out lock picking tools and poked them into the keyhole a few times. When she turned the lock cylinder and heard a click, someone locked the door from the inside instead. The person said through the door, "Don't bother me. I’m going to surrender myself immediately after killing these cheaters!"

Lin Dongxue shouted, "Calm down. Killing them won't solve the problem. Do you want to destroy your life for these kinds of people?"

Liu Qiang roared, "I treated him as a brother, and I looked after her well, but they did this kind of thing behind my back! Where is my dignity as a man?!"

"Police, help!!!" the woman shouted.

"Yell again, you bitch!" Then there was the sound of a heavy blow and then the sound of someone falling to the ground. The sound of someone’s head hitting the floorboards sounded surprisingly metallic.

Tao Yueyue said with a pale face, "I didn't hear the adulterer's voice. He’s probably already..."

"Step back!" Lin Dongxue pulled out her pistol.

Lin Dongxue aimed at the lock, which was very dangerous, because a stray bullet might rebound and injure herself, but she couldn't care about that now.

She took a deep breath and squeezed the trigger. The first shot only made a white mark on the door, and she fired two more shots. Only the third shot penetrated the lock. She kicked and the burglar-proof door opened with a “dong” sound.

Liu Qiang was covered in blood, seething with rage and grasping the woman's hair with one hand. The woman was disheveled and almost half-naked. He was holding a bloody knife in his other hand. He shouted, "Leave me alone, please!!! You didn't care when this bitch committed adultery, now it’s too late to interfere with me!!!"

There was a strong reek of blood coming from the bedroom at the side. A man was lying under the bed with blood all over his back. Liu Qiang was already overwhelmed with anger. Besides, he had already killed one person. Persuasion wouldn't work. Lin Dongxue raised her pistol and shouted, "Lay down your weapon!"

Liu Qiang sneered and stabbed the woman's neck several times with a dagger. The struggling woman suddenly stopped moving and her body became stiff. First, the few gashes in her neck opened up and then the blood flowed out uncontrollably. This scene was so frightening that Tao Yueyue was scared out of her wits.

Lin Dongxue was also extremely shocked. Watching the woman slowly fall to the floor, she fired a shot at the ceiling and shouted, "Put down your weapon!"

Liu Qiang threw away the weapon contemptuously, turned and rushed towards the window. Lin Dongxue thought he was going to commit suicide. While she was hesitating over whether to shoot, Liu Qiang draped himself over the window and shouted, "I, Liu Qiang, finally look like a man today for once. I have killed the adulterers, hahahaha, hahahaha!"

Such arrogant craziness is an outburst under long-term repression. Tao Yueyue felt the great darkness in this man's heart that caused him to take this step today. It was the inevitability of fate.

Lin Dongxue rushed up to cuff his hands behind him and told Tao Yueyue to dial 120 quickly while she covered the woman’s neck and tried to stop the bleeding. Liu Qiang was still immersed in the adrenaline rush of murder and actually kicked his wife, saying, "Don't save this lowly cunt. If she’s saved, she’ll just be fucked by another man!"

Lin Dongxue was angered, stood up and slapped him in the face, saying, "She is your wife!"

The slap seemed to wake him up, and he said in a daze, "She is my wife, but also a stranger who lived with me. She always laughed at me, saying that I’m useless and ugly! I sincerely loved her..."

Liu Qiang held his head and squatted down, crying loudly.

There was blood on Lin Dongxue's hand, and that slap had left a clear bloody fingerprint on Liu Qiang's face. Tao Yueyue was worried that it would implicate her, so she quietly went to the kitchen to get a cloth, wet it, and went over to help Liu Qiang wipe his face.

Liu Qiang raised his tearful eyes, looked at Tao Yueyue, and said, "Young lady, are you also a police officer?"

"I guess so..."

"They called the police?"

"Well, it's a long story."

Liu Qiang nodded and sighed. "Well, at least I don’t need to hide and lie anymore. I lied to them today that I was going on a business trip. Actually, I was giving her a chance. If she didn’t call this man over to our home, I would have forgiven her, but a dog can’t stop eating shit. As soon as I walked away, she immediately called him to come over. Tell me how I could let them go?!"

"You... why didn't you take down evidence and get a divorce?"

"You don't understand! You don't understand! Being betrayed is the most painful thing. I can't bear it!" Tears welled out of Liu Qiang's eyes again and mixed with the blood on his face.

Tao Yueyue thought of her own case, and thought that she, like Liu Qiang, had been predicted to be a murderer by the life functions. She said sadly, "I understand you, Uncle, I understand you!"

"Thank you! Thank you!" Liu Qiang cried and lowered his head. His shoulders kept trembling.

Later, the paramedics arrived. The woman’s trachea had been punctured and she could no longer be saved. The male adulterer had a knife in his back. They thought he was dead, but when the doctor arrived, he suddenly raised his head and called for help. It turned out that he didn’t have a fatal injury. However, as Liu Qiang was still present, he was too afraid to speak, so he lay there and pretended to be dead.

In other words, while Liu Qiang was carrying a knife, chasing and killing his wife, he was fully capable of fighting with him, but quietly pretended to be dead. When Liu Qiang was arrested, he still quietly pretended to be dead because he was too ashamed. The feelings between illicit lovers could be seen to be fickle.

Rescuing a person didn’t make Lin Dongxue feel much better. On the way back while escorting Liu Qiang, she was silent. When she returned to the bureau, she saw Chen Shi. She threw herself at him and cried, saying, "If I had warned those two people, she might not have died!"

"Don't blame yourself, how would you warn them and explain to them about the life functions? They will only treat you as a lunatic."

"Where are the other life functions?"

"On my desk, what do you wish to do..."

Lin Dongxue had already run over without permission and taken all those life functions. "We are going to find these people, warn them, or control them and prevent them from killing people!"

"No, you can't go! Preventing crime in advance, how is this different from the observer of humanity?"

"Of course there is a difference. I’m not killing people, I just want to save people! You didn't see what that woman looked like when she was killed. She’s hateful, but should she die? And her husband is going to jail now. The whole family has been ruined while we’re hesitating!"

Chen Shi said, "Dongxue, you are too agitated right now. Calm down and talk about it."

"Captain! These things predicted that Liu Qiang would kill someone today. He really killed someone today. Are you still unwilling to believe that it’s correct? Since we already know, we can't just sit idly by and watch someone get killed."

"But still, all the police in the world have no reason to prevent crime in advance! Obey my order to go back and rest for today. Leave these matters alone!"
