A Beautiful Misunderstanding

Chapter 882 The Murderer Is Someone Else

"Scum, I bought you a wild snakehead fish. The soup is very fresh. I'll get you a bowl." She opened the lunch box and spooned out a bowl of soup. "It's good for your wound to heal. Eat more."

Jim was about to take it, but he took it back secretly. "I haven't fully recovered my strength. I can't hold the soup. What should I do?"

"What?" Hearing that, Eva was stunned. Since his assistant and nurse were not here. They were sent away by Jim, she had to take care of him.

"Well... Let me feed you." She was a little embarrassed, but after all, he saved her life. Without him, she would be the one lying here now.

A mischievous smile crept up on Jim's face. "Thank you."

Eva helped him remove the small bones from the snakehead fish. The young master didn't like to spit out bones, so she put the fish and soup into his mouth and asked, "How does it taste?"

She cooked it according to the method taught by her mother. After it was done, she tasted it first. It tasted good, so she dared to bring it to this picky young master.

Jim nodded, "It's pretty good considering your terrible cooking skill."

It sounded like a praise.

Eva was very satisfied. People like him, who had always been sharp tongued, couldn't say anything particularly pleasant.

"How about having a crystal dumpling?" She picked up a crystal dumpling and put it to his mouth.

Jim was pleased. As long as she was so gentle, he would be willing to be bitten by the poisonous snake ten times.

At the end of the meal, Essie, and Zac came.

"It seems that we come at a bad time," said Essie with a smile, covering her mouth.

"Yes, we have bothered the little couple," Zac teased.

"I'm your sister-in-law. Don't talk nonsense, okay?" Eva rolled her eyes at them, pretending to be angry.

"Are you all right?" Zac looked at the injury on Jim's ankle.

"I'm fine. It's just a minor injury," Jim said indifferently.

"That's good. Didn't they say that they are all tamed Bungarus multicinctus snakes with their poisonous teeth removed? How could there be poisonous snakes mixed in there?" Asked Essie, frowning.

Before Eva came, Eve had reported the preliminary investigation results to Jim.

"This snake is wild, not raised in the zoo," said Jim in a low voice.

"Why is the wild snake in the cage?" Eva was slightly shocked when she heard this.

"It's very likely that he has been replaced," Jim said thoughtfully.

"You mean someone wants to harm Eva?" Essie was shocked.

Jim nodded slightly, a malicious and murderous look rising from his face.

"Who wants to hurt me? I have never offended anyone since I kept a low profile." Eva pouted.

Jim kept silent for a while and said seriously, "Previously, there was an accident in the crew. We all thought that the target was Luna. But after this incident, I suspect that the previous accident was also aimed at you."

"I think so too. The day before the incident, Eva posted a photo of her wearing a light yellow Phoenix Tail dress on micro-blog. The murderer naturally thought that this dress was her costume, so she took action on it. But to her surprise, this dress was actually prepared for Luna," said Essie.

"So, did Luna get hurt for me?" Eva was shocked. If the dress was on her, she would be the one who was burnt all over.

"From now on, you must be very careful. This murderer has gone too far. She wants to kill you. Be careful even if you eat," reminded Essie.

Eva couldn't help shivering, "Who is so cruel to kill me? I have never offended anyone!"

Essie and Zac looked at each other and said, "I heard that Janet came on the day of shooting."

During this period of time, the person who had been against her was Janet, an important suspect.

"Janet, is she trying to hurt me again?" Eva was shocked. This time, it was even upgraded seriously.

"I'll ask Eve to look for Janet. If she did it, she won't have the chance to come out again," said Jim, gritting his teeth.

"Why don't you leave it to Jade. I think Jade is good at dealing with Janet. Maybe he can ask something," said Eva thoughtfully.

"Okay." Jim nodded.

In the evening, when Jade came back, he pulled Janet to sit next to him.

"Janet, my sister is in trouble again. Do you know that?" he asked deliberately.

"No. something happened to brother Jim. He was bitten by a poisonous snake," Janet said seriously.

"Do you know who put the wild poisonous snake with poisonous teeth into the cage?" Jade asked.

"It must be a devil. It must be a devil," Janet said without hesitation.

"Janet, you were not at home all day yesterday. Where did you go?" Jade asked casually.

"I went to my sister's," Janet replied.

"Do you still hate my sister?" Jade pouted and said, "Don't forget that I said my sister was a good person, not a bad person."

"I know, but there is a devil attached to your sister, making her a bad person. If you don't get rid of the devil in time, it will devour your sister's soul and replace her completely."

"Who told you that?" Jade was slightly sweating.

"No one said that I could see the devil. It followed your sister all the time," Janet said. Her sister told her that their conversation was confidential and she couldn't tell anyone, especially Jade.

"Janet, don't think too much. There is no devil behind my sister. She is normal," Jade said helplessly.

"It's you who can't see. If she hadn't been possessed by the devil, she wouldn't have fought with my sister for brother Jim," Janet retorted.

"I can see that I found a great immortal in the Huang Temple and opened my wisdom eyes. Now I can see even ghosts and demons," Jade retorted.

"Really?" Janet looked at him in confusion. She couldn't believe it.

"Of course it's true. You are my wife. How can I lie to you?" Jade smiled, "My sister is not possessed by the devil. She is normal, very normal."

"Then why did she take brother Jim away from my sister?" Janet asked in confusion.

"It's not that my sister wants to compete with your sister. It's just that brother Jim doesn't like your sister anymore. People change a lot, just like you liked eating lollipops when you were a child and hated eating lollipops when you grew up," Jade explained.

"Why doesn't Jim like my sister?" Janet was a little annoyed.

"Because someone likes your sister. Isn't Nicholas, the American professor who treats her, quite fond of her?" Jade said seriously.

"He is a bad guy, the incarnation of a devil. My sister won't like him." Hearing the word 'Nicholas', Janet was a little scared.

"He saved your sister. He is not a devil, but an angel. If it weren't for him, your sister would have died and wouldn't have returned to Dragon City in a healthy condition." Jade held her in his arms.

"But he bullied my sister, often bullied her, and even bullied Janet. He always drew Janet's blood," Janet said in a trembling voice. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

"He is doing experiments to save your sister," Jade explained.

"Really?" Janet doubted.

Jade sighed, "Janet, in fact, I'm very worried about you now. I saw a devil lingering around you."

"Of course not. Why can't I see?" Janet looked around with her eyes wide open.

"Janet, I have opened my wisdom eyes and can see much more things than you. I also saw the devil cast a spell on you and asked you to do something bad to hurt my sister," said Jade.

"Jade, I didn't hurt your sister." Janet lowered her head.

"I know you didn't. It's the devil who made you lose your mind and don't know what you are doing? It asked you to sprinkle the phosphors on my sister's dress, trying to burn her to death, right?" Jade asked tentatively.

"No, no, no. It's not like that. It's horrible to burn people with fire. Janet didn't do it. Janet won't listen to the devil." Janet held her arm.

"So you didn't agree, and then the devil found someone else?" Jade breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. It was good that Janet did not do it.

"Janet doesn't think your sister is a bad person. She is good to Janet. So Janet doesn't want to hurt her. I just wants to drive away the devil around her," said Janet.

"Did the devil ask you to release the snake?" Jade asked again.

"I didn't buy a poisonous snake. I bought a harmless snake and drew it like the poisonous silver ring snake. I just want the snake to scare away the devil around your sister. I don't know why it has become a real poisonous silver ring snake," said Janet.

"Janet, you didn't lie to me, did you? If you lie to me, you will be possessed by the devil easily," said Jade.

"No, I didn't. Jade, I don't want to be possessed by the devil. No! " Janet shivered into his arms.

Since she was born, her biggest task was to fight with the devil and protect her sister, but in fact, she was very afraid of the devil.

"I will protect you well. If you have any problem in the future, please tell me first. Don't let the devil control you," Jade comforted her.

"Okay." Janet nodded hard.

Jade had secretly recorded their conversation. After returning to his room, he sent it to Eva.

After hearing that, Eva looked at Jim and said, "I don't think Janet is lying. The first thing has nothing to do with her, and the second thing has something to do with her, but she didn't use poisonous snake."

"The zoo has made a phone call just now. They have checked the four snakes carefully. Besides the poisonous snake, there is a fake poisonous Silver Ring snake. It should be the one that Janet put it in secretly," Jim said seriously.

"So the person who wants to kill me is not Janet, but someone else," said Eva.

Jim nodded. If so, it would be troublesome. They were in the light, and the murderer was in the dark.

"From now on, I will arrange bodyguards to look after you twenty-four hours a day. You will move to my place tonight. It's safer."
