"As a Chinese citizen, you have an obligation to cooperate with the police investigation. This is basic law. Miss Zhong doesn't seem to understand the law very well."

Zhong Qinqin: "I..."

"Also, if you provide false clues or intentionally mislead the police, that would be obstructing public service. Providing a false confession carries a minimum sentence of three years in prison, so please think twice about what you're going to say, Ms. Zhong."

After saying that, he walked quickly towards the interrogation room.

Wang Peng silently gave Director Zhou a thumbs up.

The director is worthy of being the director, his aura overwhelms people.

Zhong Qinqin had no choice but to walk into the interrogation room.

Even if she lies.

As long as Lin Daqing doesn't pursue the matter afterwards, the police can't do anything to her.

Thinking of this, she felt much better.

But as soon as he sat on the stool in the interrogation room, he felt nervous when he saw Director Zhou's stern eyes and Wang Peng's serious attitude in taking notes.

After the police quickly asked for Zhong Qinqin's basic information.

Just get to the point immediately.

"Ms. Zhong, you are the last person to see Ms. Zhang Guilian. Is there anything unusual about her today?"

Zhong Qinqin nodded.

"She said her sister-in-law asked her to return to Kyoto, and she didn't want to go back. She was in a bad mood. I comforted her for a while, and after dinner, we parted ways at the intersection to the left of the hotel."

Director Zhou frowned.

"Please describe it carefully, don't miss any details."

Zhong Qinqin shook hands.

I sorted out my thoughts and explained the details again.

Wang Peng remembered it very quickly.

Three minutes later.

Zhong Qinqin and Zhang Guilian recounted everything that happened while they were shopping today, as well as the details of their dinner in the evening.

Director Zhou looked at Zhong Qinqin with sharp eyes.

"There's one thing that doesn't match. You split off at the left intersection, and the people and scenes you saw are described differently each time. Did you go left or right?"

Zhong Qinqin panicked.

His nails pinched the soft flesh of his palm and he said, "Right."

"You're lying again. Your testimony doesn't match up."

The record clearly says it is on the left.

"I remembered it wrongly. I was awake late at night and my mind was a little unclear. It was on the left side."

Zhong Qinqin immediately changed her words.

Wang Peng smiled.

The record clearly says it is on the right side.

When Zhong Qinqin saw Wang Peng's expression, she felt bad.

Director Zhou was about to ask more questions when the door of the interrogation room was suddenly knocked.

Wang Peng walked over and opened the door.

I saw a crowd of people outside the door.

He knew a few people who were directors of nearby police stations.

A middle-aged man was gathered among the crowd.

The man was wearing a dark blue police uniform.

This is the uniform of the leaders of the bureau.

"Director, you're here."

Director Zhou, who had been serious just now, immediately walked forward with a smile when he saw the middle-aged man in the crowd.

His expression looked very flattering.

"I just finished a meeting and was passing by. I saw your car outside and came in to check it out. I heard there was a missing person case. How's the investigation going?"

The other directors all looked at Zhong Qinqin with sharp eyes.

As if she was some kind of treasure.

Zhong Qinqin's body was stiff.

The man surrounded by the crowd seemed to be the director of the Bureau, Bingjun. She had seen him in the Yangcheng newspaper.

How come such a small matter has alarmed such a big shot?

Is there some hidden secret here?

Zhang Guilian is not so precious that the director of the police station would get up from bed in the middle of the night and personally participate in the investigation.

He must have been in a meeting so late and happened to pass by.

Director Zhou took Director General's words to heart and pondered them.

Wasn’t it the Director who called them up?

What you said seems to have nothing to do with this matter.

He probably didn't want people to know that he made such a big fuss.

He said, "The missing person is a woman named Zhang Guilian, who lives at No. 16 Min'an Road. I'm asking Ms. Zhong Qinqin, who last saw Zhang Guilian tonight. She just gave us some clues, but some of them are contradictory. I suspect Ms. Zhong may know something, but for some reason she's reluctant to speak up."

The director heard it.

I knew Zhong Qinqin was the breakthrough point.

He walked into the small interrogation room with a stern face.

He stared at the huddled Zhong Qinqin and said, "You'd better cooperate with the police, or we'll deal with you severely. Yangcheng is cracking down on missing persons. Those involved will receive a minimum sentence of ten years. This is a newly established rule."
