Chapter 152 – THINGS are starting to take SHAPE

When Sun Jingwei met up with Bai Luo Yin once again, the first sentence that came out of his mouth was: "There must really be nothing to do these days."

Bai Luo Yin impatiently took the necklace that was wrapped up and showed it to Sun Jingwei.

Sun Jingwei stared blankly for a moment, then replied, "What's the meaning of this?"

His reaction was exactly the same as that of Gu Wei Ting. It was clear now that no one had ever seen this particular necklace that belongs to Mrs. Gu before.

"I found this necklace in Gu Hai's mother's room."

Sun Jingwei sat down and calmly looked at Bai Luo Yin, "What do you want to say?"

"I think this necklace have something to do with Gu Hai's mother's death. I've asked Gu Hai and General Gu, they both don't have any impressions of it."

Sun Jingwei smiled faintly, "What can this prove anyways? Madam Gu has many jewelries, how can the General and Xiao Hai remember every single one of the. Not to mention, Madam has passed away a long time ago. Even if they were to have any impression of her belongings, it's possible that their memories of it are blurred."

The look in Bai Luo Yin's eyes were very resolute, "I've checked all of Mrs. Gu's jewelries. This particular jewelry is the only one that is completely different in style from the other ones. Also, all her other jewelries are kept in a customized cabinet, only this necklace was thrown to a corner where no one can see."

Nevertheless, Sun Jingwei's expression remained unmoved, "With Madam Gu's status, it's normal that people would regularly give her gifts. Perhaps she doesn't like it and casually threw it there."

"It can't be," Bai Luo Yin firmly believed in his own surmise, "She wouldn't recklessly throw something this precious like that. She must've not received this necklace for long, then suddenly the incident occurred and there was no time to put it away before her death."

"Bai Luo Yin."

Sun Jingwei stood up and patted Bai Luo Yin's shoulder, "I know your heart is set on helping Xiao Hai, but this matter isn't as simple as you want to think it is. At that time, General Gu had put forth a lot of efforts in order to find the truth, but in the end, we all came out empty handed. Since the other party could conceal this matter so well, they must be someone we can't go against. If we were to further investigate this again, who knows what larger troubles we could drag out instead."
