The last moment before closing my eyes,

I saw the knife reflecting the blinding sunlight,

It's great to be alive,

Indeed, only those who are alive deserve to talk about feelings,

But I no longer have that chance.

With a "pssh" sound,

I heard the knife piercing into flesh.

But why can't I feel the pain?

I opened my eyes and saw,

The fake Zhou Jianfeng was currently sitting on top of the real Zhou Jianfeng's corpse,

Stabbing down viciously, over and over,

Crying out aloud:

"Jianfeng, how could you be so heartless? How could you deceive me?"

Tears mixed with blood splattered all over the room,

Little Wang and I by the door were so frightened that we dared not move a muscle.

Suddenly, we heard the front door of the living room open,

I knew I could finally escape this farcical misunderstanding.

"I clearly locked the door, how did you, how did you get in?"

Little Wang yelled at the woman who entered.

But the next second he fell silent,

Because there were two policemen standing behind her.

"Everyone, hands up, don't move!"

Later, the three of us were taken to the police station for interrogation,

As we were leaving, the man named Ye clung to Zhou Jianfeng's corpse, refusing to let go,

The police struggled greatly to take him away.

After staying at the police station for two days,

Someone paid my bail, and I was released early.

At a coffee shop next to the police station,

I sipped coffee while listening to the woman opposite me apologize,

"Xiao Qin, I'm deeply sorry, I never thought Zhou Jianfeng and his gang could go so crazy."

"It's alright, Xiao Min, between good sisters, there's no need to mention such things."

My name is Li Qin, not Liu Min,

And the person sitting across from me was the real Liu Min.

I still remember the afternoon three days ago,

Liu Min came to find me.

"Xiao Qin, I've already asked Zhou Jianfeng for a divorce, but he absolutely refuses to agree, what should I do?" Liu Min complained to me.

"Xiao Min, haven't you already caught him fooling around outside and recorded his confession as evidence? Even so, you still can't get a divorce?"

"I've consulted a lawyer. Zhou Jianfeng hasn't domestically abused me, nor abandoned me, and there's no apparent emotional discord between us. In such a situation, as long as he doesn't agree, we can't get a divorce."

Seeing the worry written all over Liu Min's face,

I suggested, "I have an idea, but I'm not sure if it will work."

"Tell me quickly."

"I'll impersonate you and go to your home. When the time comes, you bring the police to the house and claim that you saw Zhou Jianfeng forcibly bringing me home and attempting to coerce me. When I see the police, I'll directly accuse him. The police will surely believe it. With this stain on his record, he will have no choice but to divorce you."

Liu Min grasped my hand,

"Although it's a good plan, wouldn't it be too dangerous for you?"

I held her hand tightly,

"Xiao Min, we're best friends, leave it to me."

Then we started making meticulous preparations.

Liu Min and I are quite similar in build,

And our voices are very alike,

Regarding appearance and hairstyle,

I'm trained in makeup and have studied in South Korea,

After carefully doing my makeup for an entire afternoon,

I replaced Liu Min and walked around her workplace,

Not a single person realized I was impersonating Liu Min.

In order to familiarize myself with Zhou Jianfeng,

I carefully studied the photos of Zhou Jianfeng that Liu Min had given me,

And specifically copied Liu Min's secretly recorded conversations with Zhou Jianfeng,

Listening to them repeatedly several times,

To avoid any flaws being detected by Zhou Jianfeng during our conversations.

After rehearsing with Liu Min five or six times,

And confirming the time she would bring the police to the house,

I returned to Liu Min's home at noon three days later when Zhou Jianfeng was off guard.

Seeing Zhou Jianfeng, I was extremely nervous, afraid he might detect any flaws,

I could only keep questioning him if he was cheating on me.

Because when people are nervous,

They tend to prioritize their own concerns,

Thus, he probably wouldn't pay attention to me.

What I didn't expect was that the "Zhou Jianfeng" at home at the time was concerned about the same issue as I was,

Both of us were trying to divert each other's attention in our respective ways,

Overlooking some glaring flaws right in front of us.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but find it a bit amusing:

Two strangers,

Playing the roles of husband and wife,

Could keep up the act for so long,

And almost ended up in a tragedy,

It's really quite ridiculous and funny.
