He Yunqing didn't take the matter seriously at all. The next day, she got up as usual, prepared to go out, and was changing her shoes in the entryway when the doorbell suddenly rang.
The servant hurried over, crossed the spacious entry hall, saw two police officers standing outside, and paused for a moment.
"Who are you looking for?"
One of the police officers, his voice deep, asked, "Is Ms. He Yunqing here? There is a murder case that requires her cooperation with our investigation."
He Yunqing's expression changed.
She thought they had come because of last night's incident.
But by the time she appeared before the police, she had regained her composure. "I am she," she said calmly. "What murder case are you referring to? Who was murdered?"
The police did not answer her but said expressionlessly, "Please come with us."
「...」
That afternoon, news that a high-ranking official had been taken away for investigation in connection with a murder case spread online.
