Chapter 56: One life, one chance
Jia surveyed his eyes which shimmered full of deceit and trickery. "It’s hard imagining Yang Mingshen wanting to protect somebody. You didn’t want Ma Zhilan and Dai Meihui to be caught."
"I only protect my own interests, Spicy~"
"How was helping them serving your interests?"
Mingshen waved his hand as if it was so obvious. "If all smart people went to jail, then how will I get quality breathing research subjects? Do you think my services are free? I was planning to make them pay back with their bodies."
Her mouth twitched.
If it was somebody else who said that, the conversation would have taken a whole nother misleading interpretation.
"They would be perfect for my experiments, especially the cool grandma with cool eyesight to study healthy aging and complexion. People are dying to live longer. Such an irony, isn’t it?" He chuckled. "It was fun challenging you too. I wanted to see for how far and long my intervention can fool you. I must say I did a great job~"
"You think you can interfere in an investigation and manipulate it for the sake of your research and fun?"
"Why not?" His eyes widened. "My research and entertainment is very important."
"Even if it means letting the ones who have committed a crime scot free?" She sharply retorted.
Mingshen burst into laughter. "My dear, my dear. The criminals in the eyes of the law are not necessarily criminals in my eyes too. If you ask me, they did a damn good job of killing a brainless piece of shit. Alas, they encountered an equally damn good cop," he sighed regretfully.
