Chapter 187

Jian Jing's custom-made dress in Paris cost 650,000 yuan. The price was a bit absurd, but the service was very thoughtful. Half a month later, the tailor flew over from thousands of miles away to have her try it on once and make alterations to the details.

The designer complimented her: "You have kept your figure very well, almost no change."

Jian Jing smiled.

This was probably a major benefit of the system. As long as her body data remained unchanged, her physique rarely changed accordingly. By default, the food she ate would be invisibly consumed.

In short, eating a lot would not make her fat.

But there were still some details that were not perfect enough and needed to be changed again. The other party said it would only take a week to get it done in time for the award ceremony in November.

Jian Jing took a photo in front of the mirror and thought about it before sending it to Ji Feng.

He replied with one word: [Beautiful]

Jian Jing: [Take a closer look]

It seemed that only after half an hour, when she had finished trying on all the clothes, did he have time to open the big picture and fully grasp the meaning, and sent a shocked emoji.

Ji Feng: [Teacher Jian, you can't be serious, is this real or fake? What are you trying to do?]

Her: [Guess]

Ji Feng: [Don't recommend it]

Jian Jing: [If you investigate him, won't he know?]

Ji Feng: [Too risky, no need]

Jian Jing: [Sooner or later there will be this day, it's better to be prepared than not]

Ji Feng called her directly and got straight to the point: "I found his identity, arrest him, end of story. You don't have to do this."

Jian Jing retorted: "He knows how to change his appearance and identity. What's the use of you finding his real identity? In such a big country, if he doesn't come out, can you catch him?"

Ji Feng sighed and said solemnly: "If this was just to lure the enemy into a trap, I would consider it carefully. The problem is, do you only plan to catch him?"

Jian Jing was silent.

"No, you know catching him is useless and you can't convict him." He said calmly, "Whether it's your family's case or Liu Bao Feng's case, he left no clues at all. At most he can be detained for 24 hours. Can you be satisfied with just finding his identity and not make him pay with his life?"

She said, "I can't."

"So your plan is very clear." Ji Feng said, "You want him to commit a crime against you again and then catch him red-handed."

He saw through this so thoroughly that Jian Jing did not pretend to be stupid either: "Yes."

"I can't agree to this." He rejected outright without mercy.

Jian Jing said, "Do you think disagreeing will make any difference? I already had the dress made."

Ji Feng: "I can call Kang Mu Cheng."

She was so angry that she didn't expect him to be so shameless: "Don't use Kang to pressure me!"

"Teacher Jian, let's be reasonable. This is not you acting as bait, it's you cutting your own flesh." Ji Feng spoke earnestly, "No one can possibly agree to this. It's not that I don't understand you or don't support you, it's just not doable."

He went on and on, firmly refusing to compromise: "The dress is already bought and won't go bad. You can wear it again next time. Don't come up with such dangerous ideas anymore. If you really can't let go, I'll go with you to investigate Xue Jun's hometown, okay?"

Jian Jing hung up the phone.

Of course she knew this idea was very dangerous and crazy, life-threatening even. Did she need him to spell it out? But apart from this, there didn't seem to be a better way.

The real identity of Scarface may have been revealed to some extent, but with his cautiousness, did he not consider he should change identities when committing crimes and covering his tracks afterwards?

She would bet on a Hermes that his current identity had nothing to do with the past.

Even if they found his current identity, then what?

With no evidence, the police could detain him for at most a day, not even getting a search warrant. There were no signs that could prove his connection with the past serial cases.

For Liu Bao Feng's case, there were no clues, and the connection to the serial killer was through the internet. With no traceable IP address, how could they bring such a cautious and cunning enemy to justice?

Just waiting?

If he stayed by her side for a lifetime without making a move, could she only watch as he remained above the law?

As time went by over the years, one day he suddenly saw her on the news and realized the little girl had grown into a young lady.

He suddenly remembered her, mischievously appeared at her book signing, wanting to relive the thrill of controlling her as before.

But things were not as he wished.

She broke the human bone case at the signing, no longer trapped in the shadows of the past. She began to use her talent to look for criminals and uphold justice unambiguously.

She stood completely, thoroughly, on the opposite side of him.

Would he be very surprised, very interested?

What followed was natural.

He killed Liu Baofeng, and pursued her again, also threatening her, controlling her.

But she did not give in, instead choosing to fight back.

The false savior in The Rose Gold angered him.

He looked for the man beside her, wanting to kill him, to warn her not to hold onto false hopes. At the same time, it was also to show off his intelligence and might.

The psychology of crime is profound, but apart from the perverted bloody deeds, the essence cannot escape the realm of human nature.

Initially, Jian Jing used a criminal's perspective to analyze a murderer, but Ji Feng reminded her that he was more crafty and cunning than her, in a certain sense, he was her teacher.

Then change the approach.

Use a woman's perspective, to analyze a man pursuing her.

The grown up her, the more dazzling her, wearing the most suitable rose wedding dress, and even, enjoying the applause on stage after winning an award, would definitely, definitely, make him unable to let go.

Even if he guessed it was a trap, a man's predator instinct and the innate tendency of crime, would drive him to take the bait.

He would be unable to stop himself, which led him to this day.

So, he would definitely come, one hundred percent.

Jian Jing reined in her empty thoughts, and said to Jiang Baiyan, "He wants to be with me, he definitely won't kill me, but I need time to find evidence, so I can convict him. So, someone needs to follow my location at all times, and understand my progress."

Jiang Baiyan frowned in thought.

Perhaps because the situation was too severe, his usual amiable smile was gone from his face. Strands of shadow fell on his face from his hair and eyelashes, making him look unexpectedly solemn for once.

"If you feel you can't do it, or it's too difficult, you can refuse me," Jian Jing sighed, hesitating over her words.

Jiang Baiyan was not her best choice, but she had no other options. Someone had to be on standby right?

What if, she died?

If Jiang Baiyan refused, she could only try asking someone else.

"If no one helps you with this, would you still do it?" Jiang Baiyan asked her.

Jian Jing said, "Most likely."

He was puzzled, "Why?"

She thought about it, and said, "Destiny."

From the moment Scar chose Jian Jing, their fates intertwined. She was forced to stand in the middle of the ring, facing a terrifying enemy she knew nothing about.

But there was no choice, if she did not look for him, he would look for her.

There was no choice with the ending either, either he got her, or she finished him off.

This was a destined battle.

"Although it's true that the more time I have, the more prepared I can be, waiting day after day will wear down my resolve," Jian Jing said. "I don't want to wait passively for that day to arrive."

She was currently in a good state, the excitement of Paris had yet to fade.

In the quiet of the night, the disgust of killing had gradually disappeared, replaced by the killing intent left in her blood.

I can kill others, so why can't I deal with him?

She asked herself this every night.

"I want to take charge of my own fate."
