Chapter 555 (2/2)
”Does Sun Jun have any enemies that wanted him killed?”
”They can't be counted with the fingers of one hand!”
”Just tell us the ones that you know of.”
Brother Bian recalled and listed a few people who had been deceived by Sun Jun. After listening to this, Chen s.h.i.+ felt that Sun Jun deserved to die and wasn't worthy of sympathy.
At this time, two police cars drove up outside. Chen s.h.i.+ lifted Brother Bian up, and Brother Bian said in a panic, ”Aiya, police officer, didn't you say that you wouldn't arrest me?”
”Did I say that? I just said that I'd let you out of this door!”
”f.u.c.k! You tricked me!” Brother Bian shouted in disappointment.
In fact, as soon as Brother Bian started confessing everything, Chen s.h.i.+ had sent a text message to Old Zhang. After handing the two over to Old Zhang, it seemed as though they had successfully completed their task. The clues provided by Brother Bian were enough for them to investigate for a while.
Chen s.h.i.+ said to Xu Xiaodong, ”Investigate Sun Jun's scams tomorrow.”
”Brother Chen, we don't need to stay on guard here again tonight, right?”
”I don't have a place to sleep even if I go back now. I'm still going to stay here! You stay here with me.”
”Ah? But I haven't showered in two days.”
”I'll invite you to take a shower. Let's go!”
At 10:00 the next morning, Chen s.h.i.+ went to the bureau. Instead of meeting Lin Qiupu, he went to the surveillance monitoring room and copied some surveillance footage. Then he went to Lin Dongxue's office, and took a look at the copy brought back from Ah Zhen's housing district yesterday.
On the evening of September 25th, there was indeed a suspicious person entering Ah Zhen's housing district. Chen s.h.i.+ carefully compared this person with the person who killed Ah Qiang. He leaned on a chair and crossed his arms in contemplation.
Lin Dongxue walked in and asked, ”Why are you hiding here? Get to work!”
”Where is Liu Qin?”
”He's with me! We have just arrested Ai Guowei who's now in the interrogation room. Do you want to come over?”
”Ai Guowei isn't the murderer. Just go through the standard procedures!”
”Ah? You're not partic.i.p.ating in the interrogation?”
”No, I need to go somewhere. I'll come back at noon to take you out for a meal. Bring Liu Qin. We'll eat grilled fish.”
Looking at Chen s.h.i.+'s furrowed brows, it seemed that the truth was already on the verge of coming out. Lin Dongxue knew that he wouldn't say anything no matter what she asked him at this point.
In the interrogation room, Ai Guowei confessed to injuring Teacher Li. He said that he had found Ah Zhen's friend. After hearing the rumor, he believed that Teacher Li had hurt Ah Zhen and made her even more depressed, so he became impulsive and took some extreme actions.
Although Ai Guowei was filled with indignation facing the interrogator, Lin Dongxue could also tell from her experience that he was only an outsider in this case.
The interrogation continued until noon, and Ai Guowei was temporarily detained. Chen s.h.i.+ only came back at 2:00 in the afternoon. Lin Dongxue complained, ”Where did you go? I am famished.”
”Sorry, let's go and eat!”
Chen s.h.i.+ picked a restaurant that specialized in grilling fish that was killed on the spot and ordered a pot of spicy lychee grilled fish. The three of them ate happily. After spending time with each other last night, Lin Dongxue found that she had a lot of common topics to discuss with Liu Qin. The conversation at the table never died down.
After eating and drinking their fill, Chen s.h.i.+ said, ”Let's go back to the bureau and get down to business!”
”What business?” Lin Dongxue blinked.
Chen s.h.i.+ winked, ”The suspect has been caught.”
Liu Qin said excitedly, ”Really? You guys are too efficient. I can sleep easy tonight.”
”Liu Qin, who do you think that person is?” Chen s.h.i.+ asked meaningfully.
”Letting me guess? Someone who might have been in love with Ah Zhen?”
Lin Dongxue suddenly noticed that outside the restaurant, Xu Xiaodong was lying in ambush with a group of police officers. Was the person Liu Qin? This was impossible. When Ah Qiang was killed, he was at the bureau and there was absolutely no time for him to commit the crime.
Chen s.h.i.+ patted Liu Qin's shoulder, ”Let's go and reveal the answer together!”
1. Means “bat” here, but the “Bian” Chen s.h.i.+ mentioned earlier uses a different Chinese character even though the pinyin is the same.
2. What people sometimes call the police or people who uphold the law.
3. The reason why there's “thirty” and “forty” present, is because you count Chinese numbers using groups of four zeroes rather than three. Hopefully this link can provide more insight.
4. They both used Chinese characters that phonetically sound out “d.i.c.k” in English.
