Deities Are All Just My Food-Chapter 2246 - 1002: The Truth! (Part 3)

Gu Qingqiu snorted coldly.

"I didn’t kill anyone, don’t talk nonsense!"

"You killed a child!"

"You’re lying!"

The boss resolutely refused to admit: "You say I killed someone, where’s your evidence?"

No one would confess to such a thing.

Hoffman looked at Gu Qingqiu, wanting to know how she would point out the murderer.

"Alright, then let me ask you a few questions!"

Gu Qingqiu said calmly: "Why did you close your shop so early today?"

"I’ve inquired, usually you close at 9:30!"

It was clear that talking about the missing child had left the boss restless.

"I was hungry and wanted to go home early for dinner!"

The boss explained.

"But there are plenty of snacks in your shop!"

"Who says eating snacks means you can’t eat dinner?"

The boss argued.

Gu Qingqiu smiled lightly, no longer entangled in the topic: "When I mentioned the missing child, you hesitated for a moment before remembering who they were!"

"But your pulse, at the moment I mentioned the child, your heartbeat accelerated."

"Can you tell me why?"

The cowgirl was hearing about this for the first time from Gu Qingqiu and immediately reacted: "Why would he act? It indicates there’s a problem!"

"..."

The boss couldn’t think of an excuse for a moment.

"Boss, you voluntarily let go of my hand!"

Gu Qingqiu smiled: "Not to boast, but any man who shakes hands with me, unless I let go first, they would hold on!"

"Don’t tell me you’re a gentleman?"

"A man who listens to late-night radio, frequents nightclubs, massage parlors, and usually watches people’s legs and bears on the street, how could he be a gentleman?"

Xia Hongyao nodded, Gu Qingqiu had a lot of allure, especially after she absorbed God’s Ability, strengthened her body, and was no longer sickly, her demeanor was astonishing.

"This is libel!"

The boss was anxious.

"When I said the child was dead, you instantly claimed they weren’t, do you know? That’s your self-protection mechanism at work!"

Gu Qingqiu suddenly pulled off the boss’s wig: "That’s your instinct giving the answer!"

"You don’t want people thinking that child is dead!"

Gulp!

The seafood boss swallowed hard; his face was covered in sweat.

"I have more evidence, do you want to hear?"

Gu Qingqiu asked with a smile.

"Yes!"

Xia Hongyao raised her hand.

"When we were around, customers came in, and you immediately went to serve them!"

Gu Qingqiu looked into the boss’s eyes.

"Is there something wrong with that?"

The black guy scratched his head, unable to understand.

"The female customer’s attire and the way she looked at the fish didn’t match someone who eats fish often. You’ve sold fish for over thirty years, can’t you tell?"

Gu Qingqiu appeared calm: "But you still left the TV reporter to serve her!"

"Don’t say you cherish every customer."

"I’ve observed, with some customers, you’re not so enthusiastic, plus, your family situation doesn’t lack that one fish’s income!"

"So to sum it up, you instinctively ’disliked’ me and wanted to escape."

No need for the boss to answer, his psychological state was weak. With his sweaty and anxious expression, everyone present could see through it.

"He’s definitely the killer, no escape!"

Xia Hongyao was certain.

Initially thought the child was kidnapped by traffickers, didn’t expect they’d been murdered.

"I believe you wouldn’t senselessly kill a child, there must be a hidden truth!"

Gu Qingqiu placed a hand on the boss’s shoulder: "Tell me!"

"..."

The boss was silent.

"We’re not police, nor do we wish to uphold justice, we just want to know the child’s whereabouts."

Gu Qingqiu offered comfort: "Tell us, and you can go home!"

The boss didn’t believe it.

"If you don’t speak now, I’ll use force, and when coerced into confession, you’ll have to take the blame!"

Hoffman had lost patience.

"..."

The boss remained silent, everyone was an adult,

who are you trying to fool?

"What if I tell you the child isn’t dead?"

Gu Qingqiu suddenly spoke.

"Ah?"

"What?"

"WHAT?"

Gu Qingqiu’s words shocked the cowgirl and the others.

Glancing about, except for Lin Baici, everyone else looked bewildered.

No wonder he’s my schoolmate, sharp mind.

"What did you say?"

The boss was dumbfounded.

"You were used!"

Gu Qingqiu smiled lightly: "If I’m not wrong, you thought the child was dead, so you dumped the ’body’ into the sea, right?"

"..."

The boss’s lips trembled.

"Speak up, say it and you’ll be free, let me uncover the real ’mastermind’!"

Gu Qingqiu gently persuaded: "He made you believe you committed murder, bear guilt, fear for twenty-seven years, are you willing?"

"Don’t you want him to face punishment?"

The seafood boss wavered, looking at Gu Qingqiu: "Are you really sure the child isn’t dead?"

Everyone present, including Xia Hongyao with her limited intelligence, laughed.

"Haha!"

Hoffman couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

Because with that comment, the seafood boss had implicitly admitted to murder.

"I’m certain!"

Actually, Gu Qingqiu wasn’t entirely sure, she needed to hear the seafood boss’s testimony.

"That night, I was going to the dock to load goods, and in the evening I drank a bit too much, set off late, hurried along the way. When I arrived at the dock, opened the truck’s freezer, I saw a child inside, already frozen to death."

The seafood boss’s shoulders slumped, recalling past events, even after twenty-seven years, the night’s events were vividly clear.

Can’t help it, it was murder and body disposal, impossible to forget.

"I was terrified, instinctively threw the child into the sea."

"I truly didn’t mean to!"

"By the time I tried to retrieve him, it was too late!"

"Honestly!"

"I jumped in to look for him but couldn’t find him!"
