Chapter 470: Investigation

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

As he worked, Nia Guang continued to investigate more details. He spent two days camping in Hu Tao’s neighborhood and found a small dog with brown spots. It was the puppy that appeared in the video that the photographer sent to the police.

After Ma Guang confirmed the identity of the puppy’s owner, he found the puppy’s cell phone number. Through the cell phone number, he found the young man’s social account.

This young man had just graduated from university. His social media account was filled with videos related to digital products, but he had never released a pet video.

This was different from what the filmmaker had described in the anonymous email. The filmmaker had said in the email that he would often bring the puppy out to play and then take a video to post online. That was why he had taken a video of Hu Tao entering the crime scene.

Ma Guang fell into deep thought. On a rest day afternoon, he went straight to the young man’s house.

The young man did not expect the police to find him again. He looked a little flustered. As a veteran police officer who had dealt with criminals for many years, Ma Guang could naturally tell that there was something wrong with the young man’s expression. He sat on the sofa with the young man and began to chat. He slowly raised key questions, and the young man’s expression became more and more nervous.

“Hu Tao is not the real murderer, right? He asked you to help cover up the truth, right?” Ma Guang asked in a very serious tone.

The young man bit his lip and looked up at Ma Guang. “Officer, isn’t the case over? Why are you so conflicted?”

“Because I’m a police officer. It’s my duty to pursue the truth.” Ma Guang looked at the young man with a threatening gaze. “If you’re unwilling to tell the truth in front of me, go to the police station.”

The young man’s expression was very conflicted and painful. After a long time, he leaned against the sofa dejectedly and said weakly, “Alright, I’ll tell you. That night, Mr. Hu did come to me for help.”

The young man lived in the same district as Hu Tao. In high school, he was Hu Tao’s student. At that time, the young man’s parents were working overseas.

Hu Tao had given him a lot of help. Seeing that he was always alone at home, he often called him to his house for dinner.
