Chapter 118: Are You Even Human?

Did the DNA route get blocked? No way! 

As long as you could find some hair, dandruff, or nails, or even go abroad to find Wu Tingting’s parents and enlist the help of international police, there were countless methods. But why go through all that trouble when it was not necessary?

Since it was confirmed that she was Wu Tingting, Xiao Yu had too many ways to deal with this. 

When it came to sneaky tactics and flashy moves, who could compete with Xiao Yu, who basically had cheats?

Now he just needed to figure out the whole sequence of events. The clues would naturally surface on their own.

“I’ll make sure you die convinced,” Xiao Yu glared coldly at Wu Tingting with a haughty smile. 

That was the kind of determination scholars should have. When he said she’d die, she would die.

Wu Tingting swallowed hard, feeling an impending sense of doom.

“Aren’t you curious how I’m so sure you’re Wu Tingting?” Xiao Yu’s expression was indifferent, with a cold air about him.

‘That’s impossible.’ 

Wu Tingting’s eyes flashed with that thought, and her face paled even more. She tried to stay calm, still denying, “Officer, I’m Jiang Dan, not Wu Tingting.”

“Before coming here, I considered one question.” Xiao Yu’s expression remained cold and composed. “To impersonate someone, you must be extremely familiar with their daily life, everything about them. This isn’t something that can be achieved quickly. Only the closest person to her could do it. The body shape also has to be similar, so that after plastic surgery, the disguise looks realistic enough. After investigating Jiang Dan, my initial suspicion was indeed on you.”

Xiao Yu’s calm words made Wu Tingting increasingly uneasy. She bit her lip, saying nothing. She didn’t understand why she felt so scared, so terrified, as if the police officer before her knew everything.

“For example, that car accident nine months ago. I’m guessing that’s when Jiang Dan died, right? She died in your place, didn’t she?” Xiao Yu sneered. “Only with her dead could you assume her identity. So that car accident wasn’t an accident, it was planned, wasn’t it? The purpose? Jiang Dan was a foolish girl who had a rich boyfriend but didn’t know how to ask for money. Some people got jealous, right?”

Wu Tingting’s face, already stiff from plastic surgery, showed dramatic changes as her psychological state fluctuated wildly, growing paler by the second. Just these simple words caused cracks to appear in her mental defenses.

No way around it, she was genuinely scared. The things Xiao Yu said made it seem like he had seen everything with his own eyes. 

‘How could that be?’

Wu Tingting’s eyes unconsciously showed fear, staring at Xiao Yu in horror.

“Clear wine flushes the face, money moves the heart,” Xiao Yu shook his head. “Most crimes in this world are driven by money. You were friends with Jiang Dan for eight years, pretending to be as close as sisters. How could you not know she had a rich boyfriend who would give her anything she wanted, even his life?”

“So this plan must have been in the works for a long time, right? Because you needed to observe, imitate, and undergo plastic surgery. The surgery must have started a long time ago. Transforming into someone else’s appearance isn’t something that can be done quickly. Changing a person’s face sometimes requires bone grinding, fillers, and even body reshaping. All of this needs preparation. Your accomplice is your boyfriend, Duan Qicheng, right?”

Just as Xiao Yu finished speaking, his phone rang.

“Boss, we caught him,” Liu Hongqiao’s voice came through the phone.

“Ha,” Xiao Yu chuckled and put down his phone, looking at Wu Tingting’s ashen face. “How convenient, your boyfriend has been caught.”

Wu Tingting, “…”

Now she was really panicking.

“Let’s continue.” Xiao Yu smiled at the stunned Wu Tingting. “If I’m not mistaken, your full facial transformation was completed nine months ago, right?”

“But during that time, you were pretending to be someone with a facial injury, always wrapped in bandages? That way, no one would know you had already become Jiang Dan. Nine months ago, you took Jiang Dan out and arranged for the car accident, making her die in your place. Needless to say, the car accident must have destroyed Jiang Dan’s face, making it unrecognizable. You just had to show your own face, pretend to be injured, and claim that the surgery was to fix your injuries, perfectly explaining why you had plastic surgery. After Jiang Dan’s face was destroyed and she died under your identity, her body must have been quickly taken away and cremated by your parents to destroy the evidence. By the way, did your parents participate in this crime by immigrating abroad?”

Xiao Yu sneered at Wu Tingting coldly, “As expected, dragons give birth to dragons, phoenixes give birth to phoenixes, and rats have kids who dig holes. What kind of parents produce what kind of children. But don’t worry, once we have all the evidence, it won’t matter if your parents have immigrated. They’ll be brought back to face justice.”

Wu Tingting’s face turned pale, and Xiao Yu’s words had a strong impact on her, making her feel like her deeds were already exposed, with nowhere to hide. She was completely overtaken by panic.

“Now that we’ve talked about Jiang Dan, let’s talk about her rich boyfriend, Ren Chang.” Xiao Yu’s expression became more complex. “No wonder he said you weren’t his girlfriend. No matter how well you impersonated her, you couldn’t fool someone that close. And he was an autism patient, extremely sensitive to strangers’ touch. So, he noticed something was wrong with you right away. But if it weren’t for the police intervention, you wouldn’t have met him, right? Since you came back from the hospital, you probably didn’t see him for the past six months either. In the past, Jiang Dan and Ren Chang’s voice and video calls lasted for hours, sometimes even ten hours or a whole day, with very few text messages. That’s how real online couples behave. After you replaced Jiang Dan, texts became more frequent, and each voice or video call was only ten or twenty minutes at most. You were worried about being found out, right? After all, your goal was to get money, you did all this for his money. Over six million? No, you weren’t just after that amount, you wanted to marry him to get more. Did something happen that forced you to take the six million and break up with Ren Chang?”

Xiao Yu’s gaze was as sharp as a knife, staring coldly at the trembling Wu Tingting. 

“Was it because you were discovered?”
