Ling Zhenfei originally considered Song Jiaqi as his hope. He even stood up for her at the time, but now, not only is Song Jiaqi not helping, she's even turning against him.

As long as Song Jiaqi could prove that Ling Zhenfei left together with her, then Xu Liang's disappearance would have nothing to do with Ling Zhenfei.

But now Song Jiaqi claims she left alone, which complicates things. Other than Master Nangong arranging this, Ling Zhenfei really can't understand why Song Jiaqi would do this.

Ling Zhenfei's mind was a bit chaotic. Perhaps he hadn't encountered such treachery in a long time. Ling Zhenfei was finding it hard to accept, not knowing how to clear his name.

After a while, the two policemen who had just interrogated Song Jiaqi came in, approached Ling Zhenfei and said, "Mr. Ling, let's talk some more."

Ling Zhenfei, of course, knew what Song Jiaqi had said, so he didn't want to say anything.

"Has Song Jiaqi come? Can I see her?"

The policeman said, "Until you make things clear, we won't let you see her."

Ling Zhenfei said, "I just want to know why she won't testify for me and instead wants to harm me. Maybe she has some difficulties."

The policeman gave a sneering smile and said, "You're overthinking. For now, you should be more concerned about your own situation."

Ling Zhenfei said, "Alright, tell me, what did Song Jiaqi actually say?"

The policeman said, "The young lady said she left on her own and even called the police at the time, not leaving with you. So you lied during the previous investigation."

At this point, another policeman said, "There is another issue: the young lady is not called Song Jiaqi at all. Her name is Song Jiahui."

Ling Zhenfei was stunned: "This can't be right. At the time, she clearly said her name was Song Jiaqi. Why would she even lie about her name?"

This point puzzled Ling Zhenfei. After all, telling a false name then had nothing to do with him and was unrelated to the case.

Ling Zhenfei said, "Officer, could it be you've made a mistake, or maybe Song Jiaqi is her nickname?"

The policeman laughed: "Can an ID card be wrong?" After saying that, the policeman placed a photocopy of an ID card in front of Ling Zhenfei.

Looking at the name on the ID card, it indeed said Song Jiahui, and all the information seemed to be genuine.

Ling Zhenfei silently memorized the information on the ID card, thinking it might be useful in the future.

At this point, the policeman took back the photocopy and said, "Now, you should be able to explain honestly, right? Where exactly did you take Xu Liang?"

Ling Zhenfei realized he really couldn't clear his suspicions. Now he was truly in trouble.

Ling Zhenfei said, "Do you have any evidence that Xu Liang was taken by me?"

The policeman said, "Firstly, the three people you injured all said you took Xu Liang away. Additionally, surveillance footage shows that, even though it's not very clear, judging by the clothing and other details, the person was dressed the same as you.

It wouldn't be such a coincidence, would it? For someone dressed just like you to pass through there and take Xu Liang away. That doesn't make sense, does it?"

Ling Zhenfei said, "What if someone is deliberately plotting against me?"

The policeman continued staring at Ling Zhenfei and said, "Are you kidding? You're not going to tell me that the fight with Xu Liang and the others, and then going to Song Jiahui, were all lies, right? Do you think I'd believe that?

Now we have witness testimony, physical evidence, and video proof. I just want to know how you will explain this, and I don't think you can."

Ling Zhenfei said, "I can explain, but please let me meet Song Jiahui. If not, I won't admit to anything."

The policeman said, "We won't let you harm the witness, nor will we let you pass on any harmful ideas."

Ling Zhenfei said, "Doesn't Song Jiahui also want to meet me to thank me? I just need to see her from afar and say a couple of words."

The two policemen exchanged a glance and then said to Ling Zhenfei, "Alright, we can arrange this, but remember, you're only allowed to say a couple of words from a distance."

Ling Zhenfei said, "Rest assured, it's just two words."

Actually, Ling Zhenfei didn't know why he wanted to meet Song Jiahui. He just had some lingering questions, feeling that something was wrong.

The two policemen quickly left to make arrangements. After a while, they returned and said, "Alright, follow me out."

Ling Zhenfei was taken back to the same room as before, where Song Jiahui was still sitting inside.

The policeman said, "This is one-way glass; you can see her, but she can't see you. We'll open the window for you to meet now."

After saying that, the policeman pressed a button on the side, and the window slowly descended.

Ling Zhenfei and Song Jiahui met. Upon seeing Ling Zhenfei, Song Jiahui seemed very excited: "Hello, hello Mr. Ling, finally I see you. I haven't properly thanked you for standing up for me that day."

Hearing Song Jiahui's words, Ling Zhenfei was immediately stunned because he felt something was off about Song Jiahui. She appeared very nervous, perhaps because of lying.

But her acting couldn't compare with what he saw on the plane.

Ling Zhenfei still felt something was wrong, but he didn't show it, saying, "Miss Song, you're too kind. No need to thank me. I want to know why you lied."

Song Jiahui said, "Lied? No, when did I lie? I'm just telling the truth."

Although Ling Zhenfei was speaking, he actually focused all his divine sense on Song Jiahui, observing her carefully, trying to find any flaws.

But this Song Jiahui was exactly the same as when he first met her, with no flaws at all, just a person who wasn't a good one.

Ling Zhenfei said, "Then why did you lie to me that your name was Song Jiaqi?"

This question left Ling Zhenfei very curious because it made no sense. Back then, saying her name was Song Jiahui wouldn't have made any difference, right?

Song Jiahui said, "I'm really sorry, Song Jiaqi is my nickname. I only changed my name to Song Jiahui when I grew up, so I'm used to being called Song Jiaqi."

This explanation didn't satisfy Ling Zhenfei. Just as her act on the plane was very natural, her current performance was terrible, not only unnatural but also extremely tense—simply incomparable.

Ling Zhenfei said, "Then it's nothing. Thank you for coming to meet me today. Consider it as our acquaintance; can we shake hands?"

The two policemen said, "No."

Ling Zhenfei said, "What, not even a handshake?"
