Chapter 576 Too Many Suspects
Mu Zi walked down the stairs step by step.
The white stone steps have distinct layers, and because they want to create the effect of cascading flowers and waterfalls, the angle of this step is a bit steep. Once they fall, it is really easy to be dangerous.
Because of this, there are wooden handrails erected on both sides and in the center of the stairs, and it is relatively safe to walk slowly with the help of them.
Mu Zi walked steadily up and down the stairs twice.
Finally, sit on the steps to rest.
Squinting and looking ahead, it is the house where Mrs. Duan lives now.
Different from the small western-style building in the Mu family, the house Madam Duan lived in was originally a place where servants lived. In order to cater to the atmosphere and scenery of the garden, the exterior of the house was beautifully painted, but in fact, the interior decoration is very ordinary. Definitely not a place for a housewife to live.
But now, Mrs. Duan moved in with the child, and sealed the front and back doors, not allowing anyone to approach.
If she didn't realize that her life was threatened, why would Madam Duan be here? Could it be that she really suffered from persecution paranoia?
... It is not impossible for two children to die in a row, and to be so stimulated, and then to have the illusion of being killed.
The windows of the house in front flickered suddenly.
Mu Zi frowned.
It's the curtains that are drawn...
Mrs. Duan noticed that someone was watching the house, so she drew the curtains? Her defense against the outside world is so strong.
Mu Zi couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
Regardless of whether this Mrs. Duan is really delusional about being persecuted, her experience is very sympathetic.
Mu Zi got up and went down the stairs, walking towards Mrs. Duan's house.
A servant who was sweeping the floor at the side saw her coming, and said without surprise, "Don't waste your time, Madam won't open the door."
Mu Zi asked curiously: "Mrs. Duan hasn't come out, so how will she and the baby eat?"
The servant raised his chin and motioned her to look under the door——
There's a little door under the door, but that's... that's for pets.
"Madam will call us if she needs anything, and she will pass things in through the small door. If the item is too big, it will be placed at the door. When no one is around, Madam will open the door and move it in by herself," said the servant.
"How long has Mrs. Duan lived in there?" Mu Zi asked.
"I moved in after returning from the hospital." The sweeping servant sighed, "It's been almost four months."
"Didn't Mr. Duan think of a way?" Mu Zi was extremely surprised, "I can't live in it all the time, the baby also needs to get along with daddy more."
"I have thought of many ways, I have contacted the police and the doctor. One time Mr. Duan was too anxious and was about to dismantle the door, but the wife immediately fired a shot, saying that Mr. Duan wanted to force her to death. If he came any closer, she would die with the child."
Mu Zi was dumbfounded. Judging from this, Mrs. Duan's mental state was on the verge of collapse.
Can you really take care of your child in this state?
She looked at the house in front of her with deep doubts, and didn't approach it any further. She just walked around the house slowly, and could faintly hear the sound of a woman humming a lullaby from inside.
The voice was very gentle, full of love and care.
Mu Zi felt that she seemed to have missed something...
While thinking about it, she saw Zhuang Jia standing on the steps of the tulip flower garden in the distance, waving to her.
Mu Zi immediately walked over quickly, and couldn't help saying: "Be careful, the stairs are very steep, be careful not to fall!"
"You would never have imagined..." Zhuang Jia walked up to Mu Zi nervously, and said in a low voice, "There are too many suspects! The housekeeper of the Duan family is loyal to Mr. Duan's ex-wife, and he can't get used to the new wife. Mrs. Duan's driver, who was deducted from his salary by Mrs. Duan, has always held a grudge, and Mr. Duan, it turns out that they are getting divorced recently..."
