What Should I Do If I Suspect My Husband Is the Killer? [Mystery]

Winter 2007, the night before Little New Year, Qinghe Town.

The living room window wouldn't shut properly. The night wind blew through, making the window frame bang.

Tangbao knelt on the sofa, cupped her hands around her forehead, and gazed out the window.

In the distance, shadows swayed among the trees and mist curled through the air. A dull splash mingled with the howling wind.

Tangbao leaned forward, trying to work out what the sound was.

Her mother came over, patted her on the head, told her to go wash up, and pulled the curtains shut.

On the lake, seventy meters away, ripples spread across the surface, but they vanished in an instant, and soon it was calm again.

2014, Shencheng.

Nan Cen suspects that her husband of four years is hiding something from her.

When did Ji Wenzhou start acting strange?

Nan Cen thought about it. Probably... after the skeleton was found in Qinghe Town.

A Few Things to Know:

* Dual timelines and multiple points of view.

* The female lead is Nan Cen. Tangbao, mentioned in the synopsis, has no direct connection to the case.

Coming Soon: Starting with His Disappearance [Mystery]

"Would someone who lives a by-the-book life, going back and forth between the same two places, suddenly change their habits?"

The one asking was Xia Yang, my ex, a passionate and vivacious woman.

I don't want to say much about Xia Yang. When she called me petty and cruelly dumped me, she probably never imagined she'd come asking me for help.

I really am pettier than a needle's eye, but for the sake of her hefty fee, I'll make an exception and try to be a little less petty.

"Could you tell me more, Ms. Xia?"

That was Xiang Siyan, my assistant, a sweet-tempered young man.

Oh, and just so you know, he's also Xia Yang's ex.

Unlike me, he doesn't hold it against her that he was the one who got dumped.

Xia Yang's current boyfriend has gone missing, one week before they were supposed to get engaged.

On the thirteenth of last month, a Friday, the man carried a laptop bag and held an old thermos filled with goji berry tea. He left work promptly at 6:30, boarded the second car of the subway at exactly 6:42, and exited at Gate 2 at 7:03.

The last time a security camera caught him, he was wearing an elegant smile as he walked into an old five-story building due for demolition.

And no one ever saw him again.
