Even if Ye Feng was unwilling, he had no choice but to obey Chief Zhao's orders.
Fortunately, they have her in their hands. Regardless of whether the analysis is good or bad, Cheng Xiao Kui is not going to escape.
He immediately led his men back to the small building and brought Cheng Xiao Kui over.
As per regulations, Cheng Xiao Kui arrived at Chief Zhao's office building wearing handcuffs and shackles.
The handcuffs were fine; they were on the wrists, while the shackles were on the ankles.
Cheng Xiao Kui took a step forward, the heavy shackles dragging on the ground with a clattering sound.
That sounded humiliating, like it was announcing her to be a criminal!
Moreover, this thing is really heavy; Cheng Xiaokui estimated that the shackles weigh at least 30 pounds.
Let alone running, even walking a few steps would cause the skin on her ankles to rub raw from the shackles.
She followed Ye Feng into the conference room.
The conference room was large, with a long conference table inside. Everyone sat on both sides of the table, with Chief Zhao sitting at the head of the table.
Cheng Xiaokui entered the conference room and politely greeted Chief Zhao, "Hello, Chief Zhao."
Commander Zhao said, "Comrade Cheng, please have a seat. These are the clues we've uncovered during our investigation."
Based on our analysis, this spy known as Black Widow is likely near you.
We want you to see all the clues. Can you think of anyone who might be Black Widow?
Cheng Xiaokui flipped through all the investigation materials in front of him, as well as the codebook and various telegrams used for espionage communication that were found in Wu Jianguo's office.
She had never read about these things in the book because she changed the plot, so the entire storyline was completely different from the original.
Her lips pressed into a straight line as she reviewed all the clues and investigation details.
She said, "Chief Zhao, according to the telegram, the confidential document was given to Wild Fox by Black Widow, and Wild Fox then handed the confidential document over to Lord, who is their superior."
The fact that Black Widow could obtain classified documents means she must be close to me! Otherwise, how could she have gotten her hands on them?
Ye Feng said, "There's another possibility: you are Black Widow!"
Cheng Xiaokui said, "If you analyze it that way, it's possible. After all, I'm a prime suspect."
However, don't forget that Wu Jianguo is dead! In the whole plan, Wu Jianguo's death must have been related to his superiors and subordinates.
But I've been locked up the whole time, and I wasn't involved in this plan! That means it's more likely that Black Widow is someone else entirely.
Chief Zhao nodded, agreeing with Cheng Xiaokui's analysis.
Ye Feng didn't say anything more, after all, he couldn't find a reason to refute Cheng Xiao Kui.
Cheng Xiaokui continued, "Since it's an analysis, we can use the hypothesis method or the elimination method."
I just used the process of elimination to rule myself out. Now I'm using the process of assumption: if I'm not this spy, then the spy is someone else.
This spy, known as Black Widow, was right next to me. While Si Muyang and I were asleep, she sneaked into my room, opened the file bag, and used a miniature camera to photograph the classified documents.
Then, she found a way to deliver the microfilm to Wild Fox, who then passed it on to the Lord. Does this complete the logical chain?
Everyone in the conference room couldn't help but nod in agreement; they all felt that Cheng Xiao Kui's analysis was spot on.
Cheng Xiaokui said, "If this logical chain is closed, then after I was arrested, Wild Fox and Black Widow contacted each other again, and killing Song Wenhui was one of their plans."
According to my younger brother and older sister's statements, the two of them entered the room one after the other and saw my mother.
My younger brother saw a dagger stuck in my mother's chest, while my older sister saw the dagger beside my mother's hand.
"Dr. Song, is it possible for my mother to pull the dagger out herself?"
Song Jingchuan said, "It's basically impossible. When a person is in extreme fear, their body will subconsciously stiffen, as if all the nerves have been severed."
When a person is stiff, they can't control their hands and feet at all, so how could they possibly pull out a knife?
Cheng Xiao Kui said, "So... let's assume my older sister is lying..."
When Cheng Xiao Kui said those words, her heart clenched painfully.
This was a result she really didn't want to come to, but all the analyses were heading in this direction.
She pursed her lips, took a deep breath, and continued, "Suppose my older sister pulls out the knife and causes my mother's death..."
Ye Feng interrupted Cheng Xiao Kui, "Your analysis is strange. Why would your older sister kill your mother?"
Cheng Xiaokui said, "This is the assumption I least want to make, but an assumption is an assumption."
Let's say my older sister pulled out a knife, intending to kill my mother. Let's say it was all planned by her and Wild Fox, with Wild Fox responsible for killing my mother, and my older sister entering the room simply to check if my mother was really dead.
But surprisingly, my mother wasn't quite dead yet. She's still alive..."
Song Jingchuan said, "So she used your mother's hand to stab the knife deeper and even pulled the dagger out."
Your mother died from blood loss. It was all part of her plan!
If this assumption holds true, then we can work backwards to what happened when everyone rushed into the yard.
Everyone saw your older sister grab the fox by the neck and press its mouth shut. Everyone helped by grabbing brooms and shovels to beat the fox.
But the fox didn't even have any broken bones, and the subcutaneous bleeding couldn't possibly have caused his death; the cause of his death was heart disease.
Cheng Xiaokui said, "There's a detail here: my older sister covered the fox's mouth with her hand. If she had given the fox some kind of drug..."
Song Jingchuan's eyes suddenly flashed, "What if your eldest sister isn't actually your eldest sister! She's a spy lurking around you!"
So only your mother knows your older sister is an imposter! Therefore, your mother must die; only with her death can this secret be carried to the afterlife forever! After all, only the dead can keep a secret forever!
A chorus of exclamations of sudden realization filled the conference room!
Chief Zhao nodded and said, "Assuming Cheng Chunqiu is the Black Widow, then all the logical chains are closed!"
Whether it's Song Wenhui's death or the leak of classified documents, it all makes sense!
Ye Feng said, "Then let's go and arrest Cheng Chun Kui now!"
Cheng Xiao Kui said, "I don't think now is the best time to arrest her!"
Ye Feng glared at Cheng Xiao Kui, "Are you planning to protect her? To give her a chance to run away?"
Cheng Xiao Kui said, "If she's arrested, do you think you'll still have a chance to catch the Emperor? Arresting her isn't the best solution; switching her with someone else is!"
The people in the conference room looked at each other in bewilderment. The solution Cheng Xiaokui proposed was something none of them had considered.
Ye Feng pressed further, "What do you mean by 'stealing the beams and replacing the pillars'?"
Cheng Xiaokui said, "It means exactly what it says! It's just the literal meaning."
She smiled slightly at Ye Feng...
