When a Snail Falls in Love Episode 8 Recap
> When a Snail Falls in Love Recap
Empty basketball court, Ji Bai and Zhao Han competed fiercely for the hoop. Ji Bai made a beautiful leap, flying up to shoot the basket, while knocking Zhao Han to the ground. Xu Xu, who was not good at sports, played for a while and then collapsed, panting. Only Ji Bai turned and left with composure. Who knew that behind his calm composure lay the longing and regret for his childhood sweetheart, his little sister.
If he had seen that text message earlier, Ye Zixi might not have met her death. Resolute as he was, at this moment, he could only vent his grief and anger through strenuous exercise. Only by finding the real culprit could he perhaps truly comfort Ye Zixi. Late at night, Xu Xu and Ji Bai were still working overtime. The slender Xu Xu gazed intently at the relationship web linked by Ye Zixi's photos. Ji Bai frowned deeply.
Though unwilling to believe it, he still judged that Ye Zixi was suspected of colluding with Zhang Shiyong in economic crimes, then using a human trafficking gang to launder money. Zhang Shiyong might have hastily taken his clothes from the villa after killing Ye Zixi, but he didn't have time to dispose of these pieces of evidence. The clothes were very likely still in the car. On a busy road, a chase and blockade was quietly underway.
Police cars, one in front and one behind, tightly trapped Zhang Shiyong's car in the middle. As expected of the third son-in-law of the Ye Group, even when surrounded by police, he calmly put on his sunglasses and slowly stepped out of the car. However, when asked to open the trunk, Zhang Shiyong's face darkened, and his gaze became stern. Indeed, the evidence was stored in his private car. Ji Bai decided to interrogate Zhang Shiyong personally.
Zhang Shiyong sighed helplessly. He and Ye Zixi were indeed lovers. On the night Ye Zixi was murdered, he received a text message from her requesting a meeting at the villa. But when Zhang Shiyong arrived, what greeted him was Ye Zixi's cold body and congealed blood. The case seemed to have hit a bottleneck. The only one without an alibi was Ye Qiao. Inside the interrogation room, Ye Qiao's face was pale, no longer that arrogant and radiant woman.
Highway surveillance had captured her going to that villa around the time Ye Zixi was murdered. It was obvious that she had given a false statement earlier. Faced with Ji Bai's swift, precise, and forceful interrogation, Ye Qiao's face turned from pale to ghastly white, and even her lips were tinged with a faint bluish hue. Her psychological defenses completely crumbled; her hands trembled, and she clutched her head, sobbing uncontrollably.
Ji Bai gave Ye Qiao a few minutes to calm herself. Xu Xu sat with him on the steps outside the interrogation room, looking at the man beside her with a resolute, chiseled face, long fingers holding a cigarette, puffing out smoke. Xu Xu felt the waves of discomfort rising higher and higher in his heart. " Captain, Ye Qiao wants to see you." Ji Bai put out the cigarette in his hand and stood up to go back. What cruel and absolute truth awaited him?
