There was no conversation during the journey. About twenty minutes later, the vehicle arrived at its destination.
Different from the police station that Zhu Yaoguo had guessed, the place they came to was a teahouse with an ancient and elegant decoration.
Entering the teahouse, Lin Yuexiang talked with the girl at the counter with great familiarity. Then a waiter led them to a private room numbered "Bamboo".
Taking off their shoes and sitting on the bamboo mat, watching the waiter pour the tea leaves into the brown teapot and leave after boiling the water, Lin Yuexiang motioned for Zhu Yaoguo to sit down together.
Zhu Yaoguo didn't know what the policeman opposite him wanted to do, but he still followed suit and sat on the other side of the small tea table after taking off his shoes.
Lin Yuexiang held a dried tea leaf in his hand and said, "The sound insulation of your supermarket isn't very good, but the sound insulation here is definitely no problem. We can talk with confidence."
"Aren't we going to the police station?" Zhu Yaoguo couldn't help asking.
Lin Yuexiang smiled and shook his head. "You're not a criminal. Why would we go to the police station? Isn't this place better than the police station? Don't worry, I'll treat you to the tea."
"But..." Zhu Yaoguo wanted to say something, but after thinking about it, he didn't say it.
Then there was nearly a minute of silence until the water in the tea stove boiled and made a "ding" sound.
Lin Yuexiang skillfully picked up the tea stove, poured boiling water into the teapot. Then he simply rinsed the four teacups, poured out the first infusion, refilled the teapot with boiling water, waited for ten seconds, and then evenly poured the tea into the four teacups.
"Please." Lin Yuexiang pushed one of the cups in front of Zhu Yaoguo.
"This is Tieguanyin from Wenling. It's not the best tea, but I like it. I don't know if it suits your taste."
Zhu Yaoguo hesitated for two seconds, then picked up the cup of tea and took a sip. After carefully tasting it, instead of giving his own evaluation, he said, "Since you said that Wang Yue's death wasn't an ordinary suicide, then how far have you investigated?"
Lin Yuexiang exhaled gently at the hot tea soup, blew away some of the floating heat, then drank it all in one gulp. After putting down the teacup, he asked in return, "Wang Yue met a woman before he seemed to have made up his mind. Do you know that?"
"I know." Zhu Yaoguo nodded slightly.
"That makes it easier to explain." Lin Yuexiang smiled and motioned with his gesture for Lei Ting and Liu Wang to sit down beside them.
"We seriously suspect that that woman is the murderer who caused Wang Yue's'suicide'."
Zhu Yaoguo's expression changed, as if he was quite surprised by this answer.
"Do you have any evidence?" he asked.
"Not yet." Lin Yuexiang pushed the last cup of tea to Lei Ting who had just sat down (Liu Wang had already taken the third cup) and replied, "But we can be sure of one thing. That woman is a superpower user just like you and me."
The whole room fell into silence again. Lin Yuexiang picked up the tea stove once more and brewed the third pot of tea.
Seeing this, Zhu Yaoguo quickly picked up his teacup, drank up the remaining tea, and put the cup back into the tea tray.
The boiling tea water was poured back into the cups and then pushed to the three of them respectively.
"You are also a superpower user?" Although he already had an answer in his heart, Zhu Yaoguo asked this question cautiously. He knew that Lei Ting and Liu Wang were superpower users, but he didn't expect that this tall police officer in front of him was also one, especially since this person had visited his supermarket yesterday.
It seems that I was discovered yesterday... Zhu Yaoguo sighed in his heart.
"Of course." Lin Yuexiang picked up his teacup and blew on it twice. "Moreover, it's not just me. It's all of us."
Zhu Yaoguo nodded and said, "Thank you for being willing to reveal your identities."
Lin Yuexiang maintained a faint smile and shook his head slightly. Then he turned and said, "Sir, you should remember that superpower users are very dangerous. Although the abilities of most superpower users either have no ability to harm people or haven't been fully developed, there is still a small number of superpower users with dangerous abilities. That's why it's best for superpower users to be responsible for making contact, and it's better to ensure that our strength is superior to the other party's."
After saying that, Lin Yuexiang drank up the tea in his cup again.
Zhu Yaoguo fell into silence again, seemingly deep in thought. About two seconds later, he tentatively asked, "So, you are very powerful?"
"More or less." Lin Yuexiang didn't deny it.
After meeting Zhu Yaoguo, Lin Yuexiang's "biological induction" had been covering him all the time. In addition to being able to sense all the creatures within the range, his induction skill could also sense the specific state of those creatures.
For example, now, by sensing Zhu Yaoguo's physical condition, Lin Yuexiang knew that his five senses were in good condition, but the strength of his physical body hadn't been increased. Thus, he concluded that the other party was most likely at the realm. And because the other party's ability didn't have a direct means of attack, if they fought, even Lei Ting or Liu Wang could easily subdue him without Lin Yuexiang having to take action himself.
Why was he so sure? Because before they set out, through official channels, they had obtained all the registered information about Zhu Yaoguo. From the information, they found that although he basically went to the hospital for various minor ailments every year after he was over forty years old, he hadn't been to the hospital since he was fifty years old, which was six years ago.
This was quite strange for an ordinary person, but if he was a superpower user at the realm, it was quite reasonable.
Although it was almost impossible to be wrong, Lin Yuexiang was also prepared for the possibility that the other party had reached the "Heavenly Dao" realm and awakened a second ability. His ability was always in a ready state and he could take action at any time to prevent unexpected situations.
"Why do you suspect that woman?" After dozens of seconds, Zhu Yaoguo brought the topic back to the case.
"Because I was attacked by other superpower users." Lin Yuexiang didn't hide it. "And before I was attacked, I had seen her. By the way, it was at the place where Wang Yue was killed. Later, we found that she had met Wang Yue before. And Wang Yue seemed to have cheered up after meeting her. This made us more convinced of our suspicion."
"I see. I really didn't expect that..." Zhu Yaoguo said in a low voice. "Then what do you want to ask me?"
"Nothing much." Lin Yuexiang brewed another pot of tea. "It's just that we found that there was a superpower user near the place where Wang Yue was killed. So we came to ask you as a routine, because there might be some clues on your side."
He concealed the real reason.
"Then do I need to talk about my relationship with Wang Yue?" Zhu Yaoguo asked.
"If possible, please tell us again." Lin Yuexiang was very patient.
"Okay." Zhu Yaoguo nodded and then told the things he knew about Wang Yue for the second time today.
