บท 611: The Second Person

Tense silence hung in the air for a few long seconds. Somehow, He Juan could almost envision the shock on the young man's face in response to Chen Youzhi's revelation. He couldn't help but click his tongue, "Was he lying?"

Mu Yuze remained silent, brows furrowed in concentration and jaws clenched tight.

Chen Youzhi shook his head. "Technically, he wasn't. I've checked it thoroughly; the time he went to the nursing home coincided with my break time. So we completely missed each other."

The recording played out exactly like Chen Youzhi had explained. 

Under Chen Youzhi's intimidation tactic, Zhong Yun panicked, though he insisted that he had truly never seen Chen Youzhi before, even going so far as to swear on his life. The two of them matched the date and time, and Chen Youzhi confirmed that he was really not present when Zhong Yun visited the place. What an uncanny coincidence.
