I Only Sell Murder Houses

Two questions had troubled us more than anything else.

Why would An Yutong harm Liang Yi, and why conspire with someone to do it?

And why would Liang Yi go looking for An Yutong?

Even Sherlock Holmes would’ve scratched his head over those for days.

We had fallen into the trap of assumption, treating the missing person as the victim and the other woman as the perpetrator.

But the missing person had never been declared dead. She had merely disappeared. My hexagram also said she was alive.

Apart from being “missing,” Liang Yi had almost no reason to be a victim.

She studied hard, was insecure and introverted, and couldn’t have made enemies. In looks and poise, she fell slightly short of An Yutong. To put it cruelly, her sickly body, weakened by selling blood several times, wasn’t even healthy. Why would anyone target her?

Without enough conditions or motive to support her identity as the victim, I could only make the bold assumption that she was the perpetrator.
