Chapter 48 Chapter 10

The sky is already slightly bright, and the Baishan Pavilion is as silent as death.On the watchtower, the patrolling guards cheered up, cursed and continued to patrol. In the cell in the basement of the interrogation building, only the faint light of an oil lamp illuminates the cell. "Tick tock, tick tock", the sound of dripping water echoed in the cell. Zhang Lan was sleeping soundly, wrapped in a blanket.Wu Xiaowan lay sideways on the bed.The small dripping sound continued.Zhang Lan frowned and woke up leisurely. She looked back and helped Wu Xiaowan tuck the corner of the quilt with a loving expression on her face. "Tick tock, tick tock", Zhang Lan heard the sound of dripping water, she stood up and turned on the oil lamp.Turning his head, he couldn't help covering his mouth.

Wu Xiaowan's face was bloodless and she didn't move. Blood was already oozing from one side of the wall.At the foot of the bed, blood was dripping drop by drop, and the ticking sound was the sound of blood dripping down. In Cell 108 of Building 1, Chen Wenhai woke up from a nightmare, sweating profusely, and shouted: "Xiaowan!" A also woke up. He looked at Chen Wenhai quietly, only to see Chen Wenhai sitting on the bed blankly. After a long time, Chen Wenhai finally regained his composure.Seeing A looking at him, he said quietly, "Oh, I'm fine, I'm fine!"

After another long time, Chen Wenhai lay down again. Xu Xingliang hurried into Wu Xiaowan's cell on the ground floor of the interrogation building.There were several guards standing in the cell, and Zhang Lan stood in a corner of the room, her expression still calm. Xu Xingliang walked to the bed and pulled back the quilt. Wu Xiaowan lay quietly on the bed, already dead.Wu Xiaowan's whole body was soaked in blood, and her wrist had been cut open.Xu Xingliang grabbed Wu Xiaowan's right hand and squeezed it hard, there was a small piece of porcelain in the palm of his hand. Xu Xingliang put down Wu Xiaowan's hand, and looked back at the earth dog.The earth dog turned pale with fright.

Earth dog: "Xu... Mr. Xu, this... It's none of my business, it's Zhang Lan, Miss Zhang..." Xu Xingliang looked at the earth dog, snorted, and ordered: "Take the corpse out!" Guard: "Yes!" Xu Xingliang: "Remember, no one is allowed to say anything about this matter!" Everyone: "Yes!" Xu Xingliang looked at Zhang Lan, turned and left. In Sun Deliang's office, Xu Xingliang stood with his hands down, with a serious expression. He had just reported Wu Xiaowan's suicide to Sun Deliang. Sun Deliang paced back and forth in the room, looking very shocked, muttering in his mouth: "How did this happen? How did this happen?" Sun Deliang stopped and asked loudly, "Didn't you tell Zhang Lan to go Did you look at that Wu Xiaowan? How could it be like this?"

Xu Xingliang: "Director Sun, it's all due to my subordinate's carelessness. I didn't expect that Wu Xiaowan to have such a strong temper. She secretly hid a piece of broken porcelain last night, took advantage of Zhang Lan's unpreparedness, and committed suicide by cutting her wrist..." Sun Deliang: "Oh, such a big incident happened, how can I explain to Director Li?" Xu Xingliang: "My subordinates implore Director Sun to punish him!" Sun Deliang: "It's not a matter of punishment or not. You and I are brothers. It's just that Director Li of the special mediation office... oh, it's hard to explain!"

Xu Xingliang: "Director Sun, my subordinates think that this matter has not reached the end of the rope, and we should still have a solution!" Sun Deliang's eyes lit up: "What way?" Xu Xingliang: "Director Sun, first of all, we must strictly block the news from the outside world. Except for a few of us, we must never let anyone know about this matter. Besides, we can temporarily hide it from Chen Wenhai. If you really can't hide it, tell her that Wu Xiaowan has suffered a sudden illness and has been sent to Chongqing for treatment. As for Director Li, he doesn't come to the Baishan Pavilion often. This matter, as long as that Chen Wenhai successfully completes the task, everything will be solved!"

Sun Deliang: "For the current plan, it seems that this is the only way to do it!" Xu Xingliang: "But the only thing that worries me is that Zhang Lan!" Sun Deliang: "Zhang Lan?" Xu Xingliang: "Yes! I think that since Zhang Lan already knows about it, we simply..." Sun Deliang quickly reached out his hand to stop it: "No way, no way!" Xu Xingliang looked at Sun Deliang puzzled. Sun Deliang paused for a moment, then sighed: "Section Chief Xu must have heard about Zhang Lan's details, right?" Xu Xingliang: "The humble job knows something!"

Sun Deliang: "This woman has a very strong background. Right now she is being locked up in the Baishan Pavilion. But what if, I say, what if the higher-ups think of her again one day and release her. She's blowing pillows for us with some big guy up there, and we won't be able to go around by then!" Xu Xingliang: "What Director Sun said is true!" Sun Deliang: "Chen Wenhai's affairs can be handled according to Section Chief Xu's instructions, and Zhang Lan's side...forget it!" Xu Xingliang: "Yes!"
