Chapter 503 - 503: Confession to Transmigration
In the interrogation room, the young girl sat alone on the chair in the middle with disheveled hair. Her wrists were handcuffed by the police, and the blood on the collar of her clothes had dried. The bandage around her neck added a fragile dimension to her beauty.
The strong light on the table was facing away from the girl, as if someone had deliberately fiddled with it to prevent the girl who had not seen the sun for a few days from feeling that the strong light was dazzling.
Shi Man sat on the chair in front of the table and suddenly remembered the last time she came to the interrogation room to torture the chauffeur. However, this move clearly could not be used on Zheng Xin. Otherwise, she would not have gone through so much trouble.
The hair that fell on the handcuffs moved slightly, and there was an itchy feeling on the back of her hand. Zheng Xin slowly raised her head. The hair in front of her blocked her vision, but the coldness in her the other party’s eyes was not blocked at all.
She raised her hand and brushed away the hair in front of her. Her dry lips moved slightly, but she did not make any sound. It took her a while to ease the pain in her throat, but the voice she made was hoarse and dry. “You also transmigrated. You know the truth of this world, don’t you?”
Shi Man raised her eyebrows. She did not expect her to figure this out after being locked up for just a few days.
Shi Man did not intend to hide it in the first place. She smiled and nodded.
“Yes, so from the first day I saw you, I knew your background.”
Zheng Xin’s eyes suddenly turned red. She suddenly clenched her fists and gritted her teeth, wishing she could eat her bones and blood. “You’ve been looking at me like you were watching a monkey show, right? You could marry Yi Zheng because you used some method to snatch Su Tang’s position?”
“You’re wrong about that.” Shi Man shrugged playfully and said, “It was Yi Zheng who liked me. I didn’t snatch from Su Tang. Su Tang isn’t interested in Yi Zheng at all.”
Zheng Xin looked at Shi Man as if she was a monster. She suddenly hammered the table and said, “You caused me so much trouble, yet you still want to obtain information about that person from me. Isn’t it too much of a fantasy?”
Shi Man pursed her lips and smiled indifferently. “No one wants to harm you. You’re the one who’s arrogant and thinks that you’re the female lead. You’re courting death unscrupulously just because you have some illusion you have the female lead’s halo. To be fair, do you dare to be so arrogant in your original world?”
Zheng Xin was silent for a moment. Her heated brain seemed to have suddenly calmed down because of Shi Man’s words.
In her world, she was a young lady who had been doted on by her parents since she was young. Her family had been a special group of people for generations, doing the most hidden and dangerous profession.
Her parents had high titles that allowed her to cause trouble in the country without restraint. However, if she caused too much trouble, her father would reprimand her. However, once her mother cried, he completely lost his temper.
It was precisely because of this that she felt that she was the master of this world. She thought that her transmigration was unique and predestined, but she did not expect there to be someone else here who had suffered the same fate.
She looked up at Shi Man steadily, her eyes filled with jealousy and hatred. “I was just a little arrogant, but 1 didn’t really harm anyone! Isn’t that woman called Shen Xian fine?! She’s not your biological mother. Why do you care so much about her?! Don’t forget that this is just an ordinary novel. Don’t tell me you treat them as humans?”
Shi Man didn’t like what she said. She frowned and reminded her in an unfriendly tone, “If you don’t treat this place as real, do you have a way to return to your original world?”
Zheng Xin was slightly stunned. She had clearly not thought of this question.
Before she came, because of the special nature of her family, she had never been allowed by her parents to travel to other cities alone. In her heart, she had always yearned for freedom.
She had treated her experience in this world as an unexpected trip, but it had never occurred to her that this trip might not have an option to return in the first place.
Thinking of this possibility, Zheng Xin suddenly cried in despair. She shook her head desperately and said, “No, 1 want to go home. I don’t like anyone here. I want to go back. 1 want to see my parents and friends!”
Shi Man reminded her expressionlessly, “But you’re about to die here. The police found five catties of drugs in your residence. You should know what you’re about to face.”
“No, I can’t die!” Zheng Xin tried her best to open her eyes, but the tears in her eyes couldn’t help but flow down. “I didn’t sell drugs. Those drugs aren’t mine. 1 never touched that thing!”
As soon as she finished speaking, before Shi Man could say anything, she guessed that someone had probably placed those drugs in her room.
She suddenly laughed bitterly, her face so pale that it was bloodless. “By the way, since he can come to my house to look for me openly, he must be able to quietly put the things in my house again.”
Shi Man frowned and said sternly, “So, who exactly is this “he” you’re referring to!”
