I am dead.

The scene of my death is tragic, even a bit horrifying. I was stabbed several times, each stab fatal, leaving my body in a terrible state.

It has been several days since my death, and the stench of decay is slowly spreading.

I was discovered by a man exercising on the mountain and he reported it to the police.

The police found my ID on me, which allowed them to quickly locate my father and the others to identify my body.

My father looked at my body, said nothing, his face expressionless, just staring blankly.

My stepmother, Liu Yun, looked disgusted, covering her mouth, anxiously grabbing a police officer and asking, "Miss Officer, is she really dead? When she's dead, her property belongs to us, right?"

The police officer looked at her in surprise, impatiently replied, "Can't you see? She's been stabbed so many times, dead for so many days, can she still be alive? Are you sure you're her mother? Also, she just died, why are you already thinking about her property?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Yun's face turned red, unable to look at the police, muttering, "Although, although I'm not her biological mother, I'm still her, her stepmother, after all, I raised her for over ten years..."

The police coldly snorted, "So you really care about her." After that, they ignored her and went back to work.

The scene was chaotic, with many police cars parked at the foot of the mountain.

Many police officers were investigating the scene.

My body was taken away by the forensic doctor, and I floated in the air following them to the police station.

My father and the others were also called in for questioning. He remained silent throughout, looking dazed.

The police asked a question, he answered. Never saying more than necessary.

Liu Yun, on the other hand, was very cooperative, almost revealing all the details of my life. I watched from the side, sneering all the while.

Now I realize, she knew so much about my situation!

"Officer, I've told you everything I know, but I don't know about her salary and how many properties she owns. After you find out, remember to let us know," Liu Yun said, smiling at the police.

It didn't seem like she lost a loved one, more like she was about to come into a windfall.
