Chapter 96: The Road of No Return

When Liu Jie saw that the old lady wanted to call the police, he didn't care and immediately pounced on her to snatch the phone.

The last thing he wanted to face now was the police, especially Huang Rong's sharp eyes.

The Nietzsche incident has already gone viral, and he has already been targeted. If he gets involved in this matter again, he may not be able to live a stable life in the future.

Liu Jie doesn't want to be a "popular person" in the eyes of Huang Rong and others. He just wants to be an ordinary person and honestly work as an anchor to make money to support his family.

Moreover, exposing this matter will not do the old lady any good. After all, she will only be in jail.

The old lady was not a good person. She waved her arms, struggled and yelled. When she saw that she couldn't open her mouth, she bit Liu Jie's arm hard.

Even so, Liu Jie still grabbed the phone.

Just when he was about to turn off the phone, he suddenly found that the old lady's cell phone had long been out of battery.

He couldn't help but let out a long breath. It turned out to be a false alarm. He said with some gloating: "Auntie, your mobile phone is out of battery. You still want to call the police. Let me see..."

Liu Jie's words stopped abruptly before he finished speaking.

He found that the old lady who had looked fierce just now suddenly stopped moving. She was leaning against the wall, staring, her lips opening and closing, trying to speak but unable to make any sound. Her small eyes were staring straight at Liu Jie, her eyes full of expressions.

Angry and unwilling.

It was obvious that he had been seriously injured.

"Auntie, are you...are you okay? Don't scare me."

Liu Jie quickly threw away his phone and stepped forward to check.

But the old lady didn't react at all. She opened her mouth wide and her eyes began to turn white. Her whole body twitched and convulsed as if she had received an electric shock. This was obviously a severe injury to her brain.

The old lady was originally seriously injured and her brain was severely congested. Liu Jie's blow just now completely ended her life.

The light in the old lady's eyes began to dissipate, her limbs gradually curled up together, and her struggle became smaller and smaller.

Liu Jie could clearly feel that the old lady really couldn't stand it this time.

"Auntie, are you okay? Don't scare me... I'll take you to the hospital right now." Liu Jie's voice was trembling, and he hurriedly took out his cell phone.

The call was quickly dialed, and the voice of the operator from the 120 emergency center came over the phone.

"Hello, how can I help you?"

Liu Jie didn't speak. His hands were shaking violently. He suddenly realized one thing. The old lady was already dying. Sending her to the hospital at this time was undoubtedly a trap.

This is manslaughter and a crime.

Liu Jie trembled and hung up the phone. His legs swayed back two steps and hit the cabinet. He stared hard and swallowed hard. Big beads of sweat kept rolling down his forehead.

At this moment, there was a voice in his mind: He killed someone, he killed someone!

Before coming here, Liu Jie had warned himself repeatedly not to fall into this trap and never to shield Wu Xiaomei.

Now, he actually killed the old lady with his own hands. Wu Xiaomei is fine, but he became a murderer.

"What to do, what to do now..."

Liu Jie's mind was buzzing as he kept repeating the same sentence.

At this moment, a hand suddenly grabbed Liu Jie's arm. When he turned around, he saw that the person was Wu Xiaomei.

Their eyes met, and the two people's expressions were almost the same, fearful, nervous, and at a loss.

Under the gaze of the two people, the old lady stopped struggling and became completely motionless.

She is dead.

The air was filled with a nauseating smell of blood.

The room became completely quiet.

The whole world seems to have lost its voice.

Liu Jie and Wu Xiaomei just stared blankly, neither of them knowing what to do.

After a while, Liu Jie shakily lit a cigarette. His thoughts were still chaotic. He thought of his career and his mother.

If he surrenders, all of this will be wiped out.

Murder is a serious crime. Once you go in, you may never get out.

But if he doesn't call the police, he will be charged with murder and live in fear for the rest of his life.

"I'm sorry, it's all my fault. If I hadn't asked you to come, maybe..."

Wu Xiaomei couldn't continue speaking until she was halfway through her words. She felt that it was useless to talk about it now.

The person is dead, and the top priority is to think about what to do next.

Liu Jie smoked the cigarette vigorously, one puff after another, one after another.

"How about... why don't you just leave and I'll say that I did all this." Wu Xiaomei put forward her own idea.

But Liu Jie smiled bitterly and shook his head: "You think things are too simple, and you think the police are too simple. They are not that easy to deceive."

After saying that, Liu Jie sat on the ground next to the cabinet. Wu Xiaomei also sat down, holding Liu Jie's arm tightly with both hands and trying not to look at the old lady's body.

Liu Jie could clearly feel that Wu Xiaomei was shaking, and even her breathing became rapid.

"Then let's go, leave here and go as far as possible." Wu Xiaomei continued.

"No, it won't work. If we leave now, the police will become suspicious. We can't leave yet. Not only can't we leave, we have to pretend to be nonchalant."

"What about the body?"

Wu Xiaomei turned her head and looked at Liu Jie blankly.

Liu Jie was also a little confused. He didn't know how to dispose of the body. Countless ways to dispose of the body came to his mind.

Dismemberment was undoubtedly the best way, but he really couldn't do it. He didn't even dare to kill someone, let alone dismember the corpse.

There seems to be only one way at the moment, which is to find a place to hide her.

But where should I hide it?

"Does anyone know she's here?" Liu Jie asked.

"I don't know..." Wu Xiaomei shook her head helplessly and said.

Liu Jie raised his head and looked out the window. A faint smell of perfume entered Liu Jie's nose. It was the smell of Wu Xiaomei, a smell that once made him intoxicated.

But at this moment Liu Jie was a little afraid of this smell.

Wu Xiaomei was the only witness to his murder, which meant that his life was now in Wu Xiaomei's hands.

Wu Xiaomei can send him in at any time with just a phone call.

This is a deadly threat.

The best way to be absolutely safe is to kill her too.

A murderous intention instantly surged into Liu Jie's heart.

Wu Xiaomei seemed to feel it too, and suddenly straightened up and looked at Liu Jie.

"Don't worry, no matter what happens, I will bear it with you. I will never run away alone. If you don't believe it, you can kill me now."

Wu Xiaomei's attitude was sincere and her eyes were hot. She had already made up her mind to hide it with Liu Jie.

Looking at this extremely familiar yet somewhat unfamiliar face, Liu Jie hesitated.

In fact, he simply didn't have the courage to kill anyone again.

What's more, killing Wu Xiaomei may not be able to keep the secret.
