“Hello, is this Miss Qiao Jin?”

The other party spoke politely. “This is the Nanping District Police…”

The call was from the police station.

Why were they looking for Qiao Jin? The reason was very simple. Tan Xuejia had been murdered.

She had been found dead in an alley that morning. The cause of her death was extreme blood loss. She was stabbed fifty-two times.

Due to the incredibly gruesome nature of the case, the police were investigating the clues.

There was nothing wrong with them seeking out Qiao Jin. After all, Qiao Jin was one of Tan Xuejia’s most frequent contacts, and some witnesses said that Qiao Jin and Tan Xuejia had been in conflict.

Thus, now Qiao Jin was theoretically a suspect.

She needed to go to the police station to record her statement.

Qiao Jin had expected this since early morning.

Therefore, she had no objections, and she went to the police station first thing.

When Qiao Fei saw that she went to the police station as soon as she went out, she was dumbstruck. She nearly fainted and quickly sent someone to investigate the matter.

As for Qiao Jin, when she arrived at the police station, a gentle-mannered female police officer greeted her.

“You knew the deceased, right?”

Qiao Jin nodded. “I knew her.”

Tan Xuejia had had an intimate relationship with her before, and she’d been one of Qiao Jin’s closest friends in the Imperial Capital.

But that was before.

When they’d spoken at the hospital a week ago, their relationship was already ruined.

“We have received word that you and the deceased allegedly had conflict before she died.”

Naturally, the police had also investigated Qiao Jin and knew that she had recently been admitted to the hospital because of her suicide attempt.

The reason for her suicide attempt was drug addiction.

The reason for her drug addiction had something to do with Tan Xuejia.

That night, Tan Xuejia had taken Qiao Jin to the bar. Not only had she become addicted to drugs as a result, but she also nearly got involved in an accident.

This evidence was captured on surveillance video.

Although the specifics of the situation weren’t that clear, Qiao Jin’s suicide attempt showed that she and Tan Xuejia were in conflict. Thus, Qiao Jin was a suspect in the murder of Tan Xuejia.

However, Qiao Jin had a perfect alibi, so the police could only interrogate her for clues.

“That’s about it.”

Qiao Jin smiled calmly. “She was the snake that got me addicted to drugs, so of course she would suffer consequences. You sow what you reap.”

The policewoman was taken aback for a moment, then grasped what Qiao Jin’s words were insinuating. “You mean, you’re involved in her death?”

Qiao Jin said, “Of course not. I simply meant that it was karma.”

The policewoman smiled.

Feeling awkward, she didn’t know how to react.

Out of all the people who came here to record statements, this was the most ludicrous one by far, and more importantly, she also hadn’t completely absolved herself.

Did Qiao Jin think that Tan Xuejia’s death was justice for her grievances?

In that case, Qiao Jin seemed even more suspicious.

The policewoman thought that Qiao Jin’s words were quite intriguing, and she continued to question her. “I think what Miss Qiao said sounds quite fascinating. If it had nothing to do with you, why do you say that Tan Xuejia’s death was, to an extent, karma? In other words, do you think this was retribution for hurting you?”

Qiao Jin raised a finger and shook it. “This was not retribution for harming me, simply karmic backlash. Her own issues made things worse.”

The policewoman frowned slightly.

In the end, she asked some more questions about the day of the crime, and Qiao Jin’s answers didn’t warrant any suspicion. After all, she had been in the hospital that day, and there was no new communication record on the phone. Even if she had paid someone else to commit the murder, there wasn’t any evidence of it.
