Chapter 94: The Ninety-Fourth Day



He Qianjian's eyes suddenly changed, he stretched his neck forward and was about to speak, his excuse was on the tip of his tongue, but he caught a glimpse of He Yanfeng's expression out of the corner of his eye, it was like a bucket of cold water poured over his head, he regained his senses, sat stiffly, and pursed his lips.

Yu Fei took in the expressions of the He family members. He felt relieved, but at the same time, he felt a little confused. He suppressed the doubts in his eyes and said calmly, "Then, can you tell me about the friction between you?"

Jiang Chen raised his eyes, his gaze passing lightly over the stiff-faced He Qianjian, and tilted his head slightly to look at the young man with a clenched jaw.

"It's a long story." He lightly raised his lower lip, then quickly dropped it, saying calmly, "Officer Yu, do you want me to start from the beginning or give a brief summary?"

"Start from the beginning. The more detailed the better." Yu Fei glanced at the He family and asked, "Do you need a separate room?"

"No need. The He family should also know about this." Jiang Chen pondered for a moment, then slowly said, "In June 2000, I witnessed a car accident on Beiguang Middle Road. A truck collided with a car. There were no other pedestrians on the street. I rescued the car driver and the two boys inside by myself."

As soon as they heard Jiang Chen's first sentence, the He family members focused their attention. When he mentioned the time and place, the expressions of the He family members suddenly changed. He Qianjian's face suddenly changed color, but it didn't seem so abrupt.

Jiang Chen didn't seem to notice the sudden change in the He family's expressions. He gently patted He Qianmin's leg and continued, "The last boy I rescued was the youngest and the most seriously injured. I wanted to wait until the ambulance arrived before leaving, but I had some emergencies at home, so I gave him to a passerby who showed up later and left first."

Yu Fei glanced at He Qianjian thoughtfully, then retracted his gaze and nodded, motioning Jiang Chen to continue.

Jiang Chen: "About a week after the car accident, my friend discovered that someone was following me and hit me with a bicycle the day before the final exam."

Yu Fei asked: "How do you know for sure that person is following you?"

"He admitted it himself." Jiang Chen said lightly, "Since the day of the car accident, he has been secretly following me for nearly three years."

"Three and a half years?" The young policeman said, "You can definitely report this case. And why didn't you mention this when we asked you if there was anything unusual happening around you?"

"Because I'm sure he has nothing to do with this matter." Jiang Chen said, "And I only found out about him following me this semester. I didn't know about it before."

"Why did he hit you? Is it related to the car accident you witnessed?" Yu Fei grasped the key point in an instant.

Jiang Chen's eyes fell on He Qianjian, whose forehead was already covered with cold sweat. He paused for two seconds, then retracted his gaze and said, "Because before I was hit by him, I was planning to go to the hospital to see the injured little boy."

Yu Fei hit the nail on the head: "You mean that the person who followed you hit you to prevent you from going to the hospital."

The young policeman couldn't keep it to himself and asked immediately: "Why? Is there something strange about the car accident?"

Jiang Chen's eyes swept through the expressions of everyone in the He family, and finally landed on He Qianjian: "It's not just strange, it's even supernatural." He didn't keep anyone in suspense and continued: "Before the car accident happened, I had already noticed the car. The car was heading south at the time, and the older boy was sitting behind the driver. But after the car accident, he appeared in the seat behind the co-pilot, and the boy in the seat behind the driver became the little boy I rescued in the end."

Yang Yun's face changed drastically and she suddenly looked at He Qianjian. He Yanfeng held her hand tightly and shook his head gently at her, stopping her from saying what she was about to say.

In fact, he was just as shocked as his wife. Although he had received the surveillance video from Jiang Chen and had doubts about the accident, he still hoped that it was all just a misunderstanding before Jiang Chen told him about the accident as an eyewitness. However, Jiang Chen's words were like a blow to his head, which made him sober up completely.

Not only He Yanfeng felt hit on the head, He Qianjian also felt as if he was hit on the head and was dizzy. He never expected that Jiang Chen would tell this matter in front of the He family and the police at this time. He buried his head and dared not raise his eyes, for fear of seeing the cold and hateful eyes of the He family.

At this moment, the only thing he could do was to call the system over and over again in his mind.

Perhaps sensing his urgency, the system finally responded this time.

【What's up? 】

The cold electronic sound mixed with electric current was like the sound of nature. He Qianjian's tense nerves relaxed a little. Afraid that the system would ignore him again, he quickly recounted all the situations without any nonsense or complaints.

The system didn't say anything for a while after listening to him. He Qianjian anxiously said in his mind: [System? System! Are you still there? ]

At this moment, Yu Fei, who had digested this information, continued to ask: "Are you sure that you didn't see it wrong?"

"I'm sure." Jiang Chen said, "The accident happened in an instant. The people behind were wearing seat belts. There was no time to quickly switch positions and fasten their seat belts again. When I rescued them, their seat belts were all fastened properly. I remember it very clearly."

"How is that possible?" The young policeman didn't believe it: "You must be dazzled."

"He's not dazzled." He Qianmin lowered his eyes and said calmly: "I am the little boy who was in the car accident at that time."

The young policeman was stunned and looked at Yu Fei in confusion.

Yu Fei had already seen something from the expressions of the He family members, so he didn't find it strange to hear He Qianmin's words. Instead, he found the clue in a flash: "Is the older boy He Qianjian?"

Jiang Chen turned his head slightly and looked at He Qianjian.

Yu Fei and the young policeman followed his gaze. He Qianjian had his head lowered and his expression could not be seen clearly. It seemed that he was unaware that everyone was watching him.

Just when the young policeman thought He Qianjian was guilty, he slowly raised his head, looked straight at Jiang Chen and said, "It was you who rescued Qian Min and me back then. I am very grateful to you, but I don't know if you remembered it wrongly or for other reasons. I am just an ordinary person. I can neither predict car accidents nor switch my position with others in an instant. If I really have this ability, wouldn't I be a superman?" He laughed at himself, looked at Yu Fei and said, "If you doubt me, I can accept the examination, even if it is sent to the laboratory for research, I am willing to cooperate. Now I have no way to defend myself, and there is no evidence to prove that I didn't do it. I can only prove to everyone that I am really an ordinary person."

Yu Fei said: "We are just here to inquire and investigate. We will not arrest anyone for research. Can we continue?" The last sentence was said by Yu Fei while looking at Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen nodded, ignoring the complicated expressions in the living room, and briefly recounted how he saw Sun Zhi threatening Zhang Zhipeng in the second semester of his senior year, how Sun Zhi and his men blocked him outside the alley, and the conflict that occurred at the skating rink during the summer vacation. "Sun Zhi was afraid of being expelled from school, so he came to me directly, using what He Qianjian told him he had done as a bargaining chip, and asked me to plead for him in front of the school leaders."

"Were all those things instigated by He Qianjian?"

He Qianmin turned to look at He Qianjian, raised one corner of his mouth and said, "I was there when Sun Zhi said this. All the text messages in his phone are there. We backed them up just in case. I know you are very cautious and have always used another phone to contact Sun Zhi, but we still found your IP. Do you need me to show it to you?"

Facing He Qianmin's sarcastic look, He Qianjian tried his best to hide his ugly expression.

He dared to imply that the truth of the car accident was slandered by Jiang Chen and He Qianmin because the system told him that even if Jiang Chen and the others tried their best, they would not be able to find any evidence, which was indeed the case. However, he could not guarantee that Sun Zhi did not leave any evidence, nor could he be sure whether Jiang Chen had really found his IP.

Although the system was in his mind, it did not obey his orders unconditionally. Moreover, due to the restrictions of the system rules, the system would only take action when he used the exchange and optimal selection functions. He Qianjian and Sun Zhi had to contact each other almost every day for a period of time, and it was impossible to drive the system to hide his IP every time. He could only find a way to buy a phone card on the black market that was said to have hidden information to contact Sun Zhi.

Seeing that He Qianjian remained silent, He Qianmin sneered, "You're not going to say that this was evidence fabricated by my brother and I to frame you."

He Qianjian said in panic: [What should I do? ]

System: [Acknowledged.]

[Admit it?!] He Qianjian screamed in his mind: [If I admit it, I can’t stay in the He family anymore!]

[I told you not to do these useless things.] The system said coldly: [With me here, you can be a superior person anywhere, why do you have to stay in the He family.]

[I must stay in the He family!] He Qianjian gritted his teeth and said, [These things were exchanged between Jiang Chen and me. They are mine after the exchange. Why should he take them back?]

[Then admit it.] As if knowing that He Qianjian would refute, the system quickly continued: [You only need to admit what happened after the joint entrance examination.]

He Qianjian pondered for a long time, and suddenly realized: [Sun Zhigao lost his phone, and the current phone was bought later, and there is no evidence that I asked him to follow Jiang Chen before. ]

He Qianjian looked at Jiang Chen with a face full of shame: "I admit that I didn't do well in the joint exam, so I impulsively asked Sun Zhi to cause trouble for you. Later, I was upset about my final exam results at the skating rink, so I caused trouble for you and had a fight with you. I am too petty, I'm sorry."

"But I don't admit that I asked Sun Zhi to follow you. It wasn't my intention for him to hit you with his bicycle. You were my savior at the time. I couldn't stop you from coming to the hospital to see Qian Min and me." He Qianjian said frankly, "I admit everything I did, and I know I was wrong, but I can't admit to something I didn't do."

Jiang Chen looked up in surprise, and He Qianmin gave him an expression that said "I expected this". At this moment, Jiang Chen finally understood why the He family had not noticed any flaws in He Qianjian for so many years, because he was well aware of the speaking skills of mixing some truth into lies. And He Qianmin was right, He Qianjian's acting skills in the study were not as good as they are now.

Yu Fei suddenly asked, "Why did you go to Lide Building with flowers the day before Jiang Chen's accident?"

"I'll go find--" The system's voice sounded in his mind. He Qianjian paused and continued naturally: "I'll go find a friend of mine, but I didn't bring flowers that day. That girl is also my fiancée's friend. I can't give flowers to my fiancée's friend."

Yu Fei said: "But someone saw you taking a bouquet of flowers into the elevator that day, and when you came down, you lost your words."

He Qianjian said: "That person must have made a mistake. I would never send flowers to my fiancée's friend."

Yu Fei stared closely at He Qianjian's expression, then retracted his gaze and nodded to Mr. He, saying, "Our inquiry today ends here. Sorry for disturbing you."

"Don't you still want to ask Qian Jian?" Mr. He said indifferently.

"We already know what we need to know." Yu Fei stood up and said, "I'm sorry for disturbing Mr. He today. I will definitely visit you and apologize in a few days if I have offended you."

"No need." Mr. He waved his hand and said, "I don't know what kind of person you are, let's go."

Yu Fei smiled, said goodbye to the He family, and left the old house in the face of the young policeman's surprise.

On the way back to the police station, the young policeman couldn't hold back his words and asked, "Boss, did we come here for nothing this time? Why do I feel like we didn't find anything?"

While driving, Yu Fei said calmly: "Who do you think is telling the truth?"

"I think what they said seems to be true, but the car accident is indeed very strange. How can someone change positions in an instant? I don't really believe it. But the surveillance video that Xiao Liu mentioned is also very strange, and it happened to the same person. It doesn't make sense to say it's a coincidence..." The young policeman leaned over and said, "What about you? Boss, who do you think is telling the truth?"

"There are clues behind everything that is unreasonable. Uncovering those clues will reveal the truth." Yu Fei curled his lips and said, "Send someone to keep an eye on He Qianjian. I want to see if he really has any extraordinary abilities."
