Hearing Mu Mian's request, the two subordinates subconsciously looked at Captain Lin.
Captain Lin did not agree to Mu Mian's request outright, but only said, "It depends on your level of cooperation."
Mu Mian nodded and sat quietly on the chair. Even though he was handcuffed, it did not affect his demeanor.
Only then did Captain Lin begin to examine Mu Mian seriously.
Mu Mian had a handsome, gentle appearance. Even at nearly fifty, he looked youthful and composed. He wore the clothes Du Tingting had sent him: a clean sweater and trousers, with a vest issued by the detention center over it. He sat there quietly, giving off the illusion of generosity and kindness.
But this person is responsible for multiple murders.
Captain Lin, who is used to seeing all kinds of criminal cases, once again thought of the saying: Don't judge a book by its cover after seeing Mu Mian like this.
"Suspect Mu Mian, do you confess to the transnational kidnapping of Ms. Song Fei, attempting to kill her and steal her heart to save your daughter?" Captain Lin was in charge of the interrogation, and the recorder was holding a pen at the side, waiting for Mu Mian to answer.
Mu Mian drooped his eyelids, showing no strong emotional reaction. He simply replied indifferently, "I admit it."
"Confess your criminal process and purpose."
Like a storyteller, Mu Mian calmly and methodically recounted the entire course of events. "From the day Song Fei left for Kinshasa, I began to harbor the idea of taking advantage of the chaotic situation there, fabricating her death, and smuggling her back to China."
"What really motivated me to do this was my wife's miscarriage. After the miscarriage, my wife was in a gloomy mood. I was afraid that after our only daughter died of a heart attack, my wife would also be devastated. So, I decided to take the risk..."
Mu Mian recounted the crime with a blank expression, causing Captain Lin and the other three to frown. "So, you admit that you extorted money from Zhu Yuanwen, and that Chen Kang, Huang Qianqian, and the others colluded with you to commit the crime?"
After a brief silence, Mu Mian nodded. "I admit it."
Captain Lin nodded, then changed the subject and continued, "Eighteen years ago, your fellow countryman Xu Xiangxiang fell to her death from the Dieyi Building in our city. At the time, her death was ruled a suicide, but recently someone reported that Xu Xiangxiang did not commit suicide by jumping from the building, but because she had an emotional entanglement with you, you deliberately pushed her off the Dieyi Building and she fell to her death."
"Suspect Mu Mian, do you admit to intentionally killing Xu Xiangxiang?"
When Mu Mian suddenly heard the name Xu Xiangxiang, a slender figure emerged in his mind, but he could not remember what Xu Xiangxiang looked like.
He's quite capable, he can even dig out such old stories.
Mu Mian shook his head slightly and said, "I didn't." After answering, Mu Mian turned around and asked Captain Lin, "Who reported the case? This is a fabrication and a slander against me." He seemed quite indignant, and played the image of an innocent person who was slandered to perfection.
"You won't cry until you see the coffin." Captain Lin sneered and reached into his pocket to take out a sealed bag containing a black USB flash drive.
Pushing the USB drive in front of Mu Mian, Captain Lin tapped his fingers on the table and asked him, "Take a look at this USB drive. Does it look familiar?"
From the moment Captain Lin took out the USB flash drive, the calm look on Mu Mian's face disappeared, and his brown pupils shrank into two tiny dots.
Staring at the USB flash drive, Mu Mian's eloquent mouth suddenly lost the ability to speak.
Captain Lin then asked, "Suspect Mu Mian, do you plead guilty to the murder of Xu Xiangxiang?"
Mu Mian stiffened his neck and stared at Captain Lin for a long time before he nodded in submission and said in a hoarse voice, "I admit it." The USB flash drive contained a recording of his conversation with Su Buwang. In the recording, he admitted to murdering Xu Xiangxiang. It was useless to try to argue further.
"What was your motive?"
As if talking about an old friend he hadn't seen in years, Mu Mian spoke calmly, "She was my first love. We've been together since high school. She didn't get into a good university in the college entrance examination, so she dropped out and went to work. She found a job as a clerk in a factory."
"Although we were separated, we didn't break up and maintained a long-distance relationship. At that time, telephones were not common and expensive, so she and I kept in touch through letters."
"Later, during my sophomore year, I met my current love. It was only after meeting my current love that I understood what love was. Even though I knew it was wrong to have two relationships at the same time, I still fell head over heels in love with my wife."
"I married my wife after graduating from university, and we had a daughter shortly after. During this period, I kept the existence of my lover a secret from Xu Xiangxiang, and I also kept the existence of my lover Xu Xiangxiang a secret from her."
Captain Lin frowned and asked Mu Mian, "Why don't you break up with Xu Xiangxiang? After all these years, you always find a suitable opportunity."
Mu Mian looked distressed, and he was very emotional. He said: "Xu Xiangxiang suffered a lot for me. She is the kind of person who would spend 99 yuan on me if she had 100 yuan. She is very affectionate to me, and I..."
Mu Mian felt a little embarrassed and murmured, "I don't know how to bring up the breakup with her, so I just keep putting it off."
"So you're nostalgic!" Captain Lin thought it was ridiculous and sneered at her, "People like you actually have moments of nostalgia."
Mu Mian did not refute Captain Lin.
"Since you still cherish our past, how could you bear to kill her?" In Captain Lin's opinion, Mu Mian was nothing. If you don't love such a good girl, please don't hurt her.
"I didn't intend to kill her. I wanted to compensate her for the loss of her youth." At that time, Mu Mian thought that although he had not touched Xu Xiangxiang's body, he had wasted the girl's youth for several years, so he planned to compensate Xu Xiangxiang for the loss of her youth with 100,000 yuan.
