Chapter 523 Death from Greed
Seeing that Chu Fenghe insisted, Song Dong still came to pick up Jiang Zhizhi.
On the way, Song Dong briefly introduced Chu Fenghe's current situation: "Due to time constraints, Chu Fenghe is highly suspected and has been brought back. We have now obtained evidence against him."
"But I noticed that Chu Fenghe wasn't in a good state. He wasn't as spirited as last time. He looked like a heavy smoker, with sunken eyes. He was also talking to himself from time to time."
Jiang Zhizhi knew that Chu Fenghe was now so frightened that he dared not close his eyes at night.
In the previous life, he caused the deaths of so many people; in this life, he cannot be allowed to die so easily.
Song Dong led Chu Fenghe to the interrogation room, and then personally accompanied Jiang Zhizhi inside.
Just like Song Dong said, Chu Fenghe had sunken eyes and looked haggard and disheveled.
The moment she saw Jiang Zhizhi, she was so agitated that she tried to stand up: "Jiang Zhizhi...you ruined me! You ruined me!"
Jiang Zhizhi stood somewhat timidly next to Song Dong, frowning: "How could it be that I'm the one who harmed you?"
Chu Fenghe laughed heartily: "I actually lost to you! I was too merciful. I even thought that if you didn't know anything, I would let you go."
Jiang Zhizhi rolled her eyes inwardly. Keeping someone like that around would only make him a traitor.
Song Dong looked at Chu Fenghe coldly: "Sit down! Honestly confess your problems."
Chu Fenghe suggested having a private chat with Jiang Zhizhi, but Song Dong refused.
Jiang Zhizhi smiled slightly and said, "I don't think I need to say anything to Team Leader Chu alone..."
Chu Fenghe gritted his teeth, staring at Jiang Zhizhi with hatred in his eyes.
Song Dong called over the recorder, and after sitting down, began interrogating Chu Fenghe.
Regarding the murder case in the western suburbs of Beijing, Chu Fenghe suddenly changed his attitude for some reason and confessed without hesitation.
They simply denied intentional homicide, insisting it was an accident.
To Jiang Zhizhi's surprise, the sales clerk turned out to be Chu Fenghe's lover, and the two got into an argument because of a disagreement.
The other party even threatened him. Chu Fenghe was unwilling to be threatened, so a fight broke out during the argument, and he accidentally strangled the other party to death.
Song Dong frowned: "What incriminating evidence did the deceased have that you're so afraid to reveal to the public?"
Chu Fenghe gritted his teeth and said, "It's nothing, it's just that she wanted to make our relationship public, which I naturally disagreed with. My career in Beijing is just starting out, and I certainly can't let her ruin it."
Song Dong slammed his fist on the table: "Chu Fenghe! Even now, you're still lying! It's because of Chen Liqin!"
Chu Fenghe immediately shook his head: "I don't know Chen Liqin at all! Who is he?"
Song Dong sneered: "You really don't recognize him? You were the one who recommended Chen Liqin to the Chu family to treat Chu Jiahe. You haven't forgotten so quickly, have you?"
Chu Fenghe was confident that he had not left any evidence: "I had no idea that someone was treating Chu Jiahe. I knew about it, but I was still in Shanghai at the time."
Song Dong stared at Chu Fenghe for a long while before speaking: "You probably didn't expect that Chen Liqin knew he was going to die at your hands, so he desperately left behind evidence before he died."
Chu Fenghe's expression changed. After thinking it over, he still felt that he had done everything perfectly, and shook his head vigorously: "No, I don't know him."
Song Dong sneered and took out a stack of photos: "These are the evidence found in Chen Liqin's house. Did you not find the letter you gave him?"
"He wrapped it in oil paper and hid it among a pile of animal carcasses."
As he spoke, he instructed the recorder to take the photos to Chu Fenghe.
Chu Fenghe looked at the photo and his face turned pale instantly.
He searched Chen Liqin's house thoroughly but couldn't find the letters. He never expected that the old man had hidden them so well.
Song Dong asked sternly, "Do you have anything to say now? Your lover, Chen Wenxiu, cooperated with you to kill the three people in Chen Liqin's yard first, and then staged a robbery to make it look like they died together."
"You have Chen Wenxiu leave marks on the gate, so that you know she's not strong and the cuts she makes will be different. That way, no matter how much they suspect you, they won't be able to find fault with you."
"In order to clear his name, Chen Liqin used the most foolish method: he deliberately exposed his address so that people would find out he was still alive and then reinvestigate the case."
"Why doesn't he dare to report the case directly to the police? It's because, under your instigation, he also has a poisoning case against him. So, he doesn't dare."
"You discovered he wasn't dead, lured him to the back mountain, and killed him."
"After Chen Wenxiu helped you kill Chen Liqin, she was unwilling to just be your mistress, so she started making trouble for you and used these things to threaten you."
“If you disagree, she will expose these things, and no one will be happy. You were afraid that your carefully planned scheme would be exposed, so in the ensuing argument, you killed Chen Wenxiu.”
Chu Fenghe looked at Song Dong with a sinister gaze: "What evidence do you have? These are just your own analyses! You can't convict me based on your own analyses."
Song Dong patted a stack of papers on the table: "These are the test results. Human tissue was found in the crevices of Chen Wenxiu's fingernails. After comparison, it is confirmed to be from your body."
"And that's how you got the scratches on your arm. But to cover them up, you deliberately scratched yourself with broken glass from the lab."
Chu Fenghe's body went limp. He remembered clearly that he had cleaned Chen Wenxiu's fingernails, so how could there still be human flesh tissue?
After listening to Song Dong's analysis, Jiang Zhizhi looked at Chu Fenghe in disbelief. If it weren't for his messy relationships, it would have been quite difficult to find him.
Song Dong looked at Chu Fenghe: "Now, what else do you have to say?"
Chu Fenghe remained silent for a long time before saying, "Yes, I did it. Do whatever you want with me."
Song Dong sneered: "It's useless for you to say these things now. You should seriously explain your questions clearly. Why did you kill Chen Liqin? What was your motive?"
Chu Fenghe answered quickly: "Because he is greedy and always asks me for money."
Why did he ask you for money? What did he do for you?
Chu Fenghe looked up at Jiang Zhizhi, then fell into a long silence.
Song Dong wasn't in a hurry. He turned to look at Jiang Zhizhi beside him and said, "If you're tired, go out and rest for a while."
He was also prepared for a long wait.
The incandescent light shone into Chu Fenghe's eyes, and he always managed to hold on until the moment he was to give his instructions.
Jiang Zhizhi felt that she was of no use here, and she was already quite satisfied to see Chu Fenghe's miserable end.
He whispered something to Song Dong, then got up and went out.
She had just stepped out of the interrogation room when Chu Fenghe suddenly shouted anxiously, "No, this shouldn't be happening! You can't arrest me. I'm from another world, I know a lot of things..."
Song Dong frowned: "Chu Fenghe! Confess your problems honestly, stop pretending to be crazy!"
Chu Fenghe shook his head: "No, what I said is true. Jiang Zhizhi also transmigrated. She is not the Jiang Zhizhi of the past. Didn't you all notice?"
