Chapter 42: Chapter 42 This Technique Is Too Crude

Anling City police station.

Not only Lin Chuan, but everyone who had been to Hengli Gym on the 21st was invited by the police for questioning to assist in the investigation, including Wang Zikai.

Lin Chuan was given priority over others, being the first to undergo police questioning.

Inside the inquiry room.

Lin Chuan looked around curiously at the room’s setup.

It was vastly different from an interrogation room.

An interrogation room, also known as the “little black room,” has no windows to let in light, in its center sits a tiger bench, and on the walls hang slogans like “Leniency for those who confess, severity for those who resist,” all contributing to an oppressive and enclosed atmosphere.

But here.

Lin Chuan sat in a leather chair, the wall bore the slogan “Police and public cooperation, building a safe home together,” the morning breeze wafted through the window bringing with it sunlight, and gave a relatively relaxed feeling.

Whew–

At least it’s not the little black room.

The main inquirer, Shen Qianqian.

Two other police officers stood beside her.

Going through the routine information recording, Shen Qianqian did so deftly, she even remembered Lin Chuan’s ID number, and then got straight to the point.

“Have you seen this woman before?”

Shen Qianqian passed the life photo of the deceased, Zhao Lian, to Lin Chuan.

Lin Chuan looked carefully and nodded, “I’ve seen her at Hengli Gym, she asked me for V, I didn’t give it to her.”

Shen Qianqian looked up at Lin Chuan with a slight frown, “Approximately when would this have been?”

“The afternoon before yesterday, I don’t remember the exact time,” Lin Chuan replied.

Shen Qianqian then asked, “Besides that, did you meet her again on the evening of the 21st?”

“No, I was communicating with my editor about the new book that night. The chat records are available, the IP address can be checked,” Lin Chuan shook his head and added, “By the way, Zhang downstairs also saw me.”

In the meantime.

He had gone downstairs to buy a bottle of water and happened to run into Zhang immersed in a sea of videos.

The website’s address seemed to have changed, something Lin Chuan had not seen before.

Shen Qianqian nodded, “On the afternoon of the 21st at Hengli Gym, did you notice anyone suspicious around her?”

“I didn’t pay attention,” Lin Chuan shook his head again, shifting in his seat, “I’ve only met her once, what crime is she suspected of committing?”

“She’s dead,” Shen Qianqian said.

Lin Chuan looked stunned.

So she was the victim in Anling City’s third murder case.

But Lin Chuan had seen on ‘Local News’ just yesterday, wasn’t the victim found at Hengli Company?

That’s the building two floors above the gym.

“She was found on the fourth floor, it has nothing to do with the gym on the second floor,” Lin Chuan couldn’t help asking, “How did you come to suspect me?”

Shen Qianqian pondered for a moment, exchanged glances with the two officers beside her, and then said, “We found her blood DNA and your fingerprints on the dumbbell in the gym.”

Lin Chuan’s pupils constricted.

As a professional assassin, he quickly grasped the critical information.

Hengli Company on the fourth floor, the gym on the second floor, blood DNA, dumbbell, my fingerprints…

With his experience from an assassin’s professional life, it took him only a moment to understand the twists and turns.

The murderer had fabricated the murder scene and had even gone to the trouble of framing him in particular.

Only…

“This method is too clumsy,” Lin Chuan couldn’t help but comment.

Shen Qianqian’s eyes, bloodshot, couldn’t help but narrow, “Lin Chuan, it seems you have a different opinion?”

Cough.

Lin Chuan coughed lightly, his face bitter, “I was just talking off the cuff, I only met her by chance, I had no motive to kill her.”
