Chapter 279 Why



What does the absence of hostages mean? A few simple words can make a situation completely different.

Zhu Jin paused for a moment in the complicated gaze of the old policeman, then smiled stiffly at him, "Officer, this is not a joke... or did I hear it wrong?"

"Doctor Zhu Jin, we are law enforcement officers. We understand better than anyone how important every word we say is. There is no hostage-taking in the course of events described by Mr. Ye Banxia. There was only your sudden attack that resulted in Gang Meigen's injury." The old policeman was also willing to let things go as Zhu Jin said, but unfortunately they had to follow procedures and rules.

Zhu Jin actually knew exactly what the old policeman would answer, and she knew even more clearly that she couldn't be hallucinating.

She closed her eyes, her mind was in a mess, then seemed to be blank. After a moment, she opened her eyes again, "Is Ye Banxia still in the police station? I want to see him."

She wanted to meet him in person and ask him clearly. No matter what, she wanted to see him.

"Mr. Ye Banxia has left." Unfortunately, the old policeman gave her such an answer.

"Do I have to be investigated as a suspect again? I can't see Ishigami Bo before the investigation is clear?" Zhu Jin asked after taking a deep breath.

"Yes." The old policeman answered truthfully, and couldn't help but sigh at Zhu Jin's bad luck.

"I just don't know why there are always so many people who want me to go to jail." Zhu Jin murmured.

Zhu Jin looked at the old policeman and begged, "Please help me pass a message to Shi Shangbai, tell him not to worry, wait for me outside for a while, I will be out as soon as possible."

Seeing him nod and agree to close the door and go out, Zhu Jin stared at the door for a moment, then slowly backed away and sat back in his chair.

After a few minutes, the old policeman came back, and he was accompanied by another policeman. The case happened in their jurisdiction, so the police in this area had to take full responsibility. Because Zhu Jin was involved, the police station attached great importance to it and blocked the news immediately, and the best police officer in the entire department was in charge of the case.

After the two policemen sat down, the old policeman said to Zhu Jin, "I have already told Mr. Ishigami Kashiwa what you asked me to convey. He said he knows and asked you not to worry. He will be waiting for you outside."

"Thank you." Zhu Jin bowed to express his gratitude.

After thanking him, Zhu Jin said nothing more and asked directly, "I heard from that person... Gang Meigen that there is no surveillance in that mountain area, so there is no video evidence, right?"

"Yes, there is no video evidence. Gang Meigen is a cemetery staff member, and his behavior was found to be normal after investigation." The old policeman nodded.

"What about the physical evidence?" Zhu Jin asked. There was no video evidence. Among the three parties who experienced the incident, one was in a vegetative state, and the testimony of another party was unfavorable to her. So they could only rely on physical evidence.

"All physical evidence found at the scene, including the dagger brought back from the hospital, have been collected and identified. There is no physical evidence favorable to Dr. Zhu Jin." The old policeman answered without hesitation.

"That dagger, when Gang Meigen held me hostage, he used it to hold it against my neck." Zhu Jin thought for a moment, "Although he was wearing gloves at the time, there should be other traces and clues on the dagger, right?"

"There are only traces of Gang Meigen's blood and Dr. Zhu Jin's fingerprints on the dagger." The old policeman paused, opened the file bag he had in his hand when he came in the second time, took out a piece of paper and placed it in front of Zhu Jin.

Zhu Jin closed his eyes. "Although it may be useless to say it, I still have to reiterate that I snatched it from him in self-defense. I injured him because he tried to snatch the knife and we both lost our balance and rolled down the slope."

Zhu Jin took a deep breath, "There are two more syringes in the evidence, right? He forced Ye Banxia to inject him and lost one, and he bit open the package of the other one with his mouth to inject me, but he failed to inject me because I resisted."

"There are two syringes, but they are veterinary anesthetics distributed by the cemetery to the patrol staff just in case. Mr. Ye Banxia said that he opened them and took a look out of curiosity after he picked them up." The old policeman gave the answer again.

"So we can only use human witnesses?" Zhu Jin was silent for a long while before asking.

In a vast surveillance area, with surveillance equipment in most places on the Blue Water Planet, this is a rare situation. Unfortunately, Zhu Jin encountered this rare situation. The physical evidence and witness testimony were not favorable to Zhu Jin. There was no surveillance video evidence, and the kidnapper who held the hostage became a victim because of his serious injuries and became a vegetable.

Originally a simple accident, it became complicated because of Ye Banxia. If there were only Zhu Jin and Gang Meigen, Zhu Jin might have to prove her innocence with difficulty, but she had the opportunity to prove it for herself. But with the third person, Ye Banxia, ​​the only witness who could prove Zhu Jin's innocence, because he strangely concealed the most crucial truth, his testimony made Zhu Jin lose the right to prove the true facts.

There was no premise of hostage-taking or kidnapping, and the premise of Zhu Jin's self-defense did not hold. No matter what the reason was, Zhu Jin and Gang Meigen had a dispute and Gang Meigen was seriously injured, so Zhu Jin must be held responsible.

"Yes, this case is very special. The amnesiac witness played a key role." The old policeman nodded affirmatively to Zhu Jin's question. "Doctor Zhu Jin should know that the verbal evidence of the parties needs other physical evidence to form an evidence chain. It's best for you to provide new evidence."

Zhu Jin nodded without any surprise, "I understand."

The old policeman nodded, hesitated for a moment, looked at the policeman next to him, and reminded, "Doctor Zhu Jin, this case is very unfavorable to you. If the results of the investigation and evidence collection remain the same, you may have to..."

Faced with Zhu Jin, who had been to prison twice, the old policeman was at a loss for words.

"Going back to prison?" Zhu Jin replied calmly, "I won't go back to prison."

This is Zhu Jin’s bottom line.

"Doctor Zhu Jin..." The old policeman was speechless.

Zhu Jin only asked, "Am I going to be detained?"

"No need. Ishigami Kashiwa has already done the... formalities. But before the trial, you cannot leave the Blue Water Planet. You must maintain 24-hour communication and be under supervision. You cannot contact the victims or witnesses." The old policeman shook his head and instructed.

"So can I leave now?" Zhu Jin nodded and asked.

"You can leave now." The old policeman nodded.

Zhu Jin said a brief goodbye to them and quickened her pace once she left the interrogation room. She wanted to see Ishigami Bai as soon as possible. This was the first time she wanted to see Ishigami Bai so urgently.

Zhu Jin's pace became faster and faster. After turning the corner, without the patience to wait for the elevator, Zhu Jin pushed open the stairwell and ran down the stairs.

After running to the first floor and turning out of the stairwell, Zhu Jin saw a figure standing upright in the reception area of ​​the police station. The moment Zhu Jin looked over, Ishigami Bai also saw him.

Zhu Jin kept walking, from quick steps to running, and in an instant rushed to Shi Shangbai, and dived into Shi Shangbai's arms like a young swallow.

The warm and familiar embrace, tightly wrapped around her, and the soothing hands from behind, helped Zhu Jin calm down little by little.

"Let's go home first." Feeling that Zhu Jin had calmed down, Shi Shangbai said in a low voice, glanced at the shining eyes around him, bent down and picked up Zhu Jin.

Zhu Jin hugged his neck, leaned quietly in his arms, and let Shi Shangbai carry her out of the police station.

Although they have not yet actually gotten married, and although it is still uncertain whether their wedding can go ahead, Zhu Jin is extremely certain that Ishigami Bai is someone she can always trust and rely on.

"Are you feeling wronged?" Ishigami Bai asked the person in his arms in a low voice.

"I don't feel wronged now." Zhu Jin answered softly without opening his eyes.

"How can I not feel wronged? Look at how miserable and pitiful you are. You went to the hospital with me, but why didn't you treat the wounds on your body?" Zhu Jin didn't have any major wounds on his body, but he had quite a few minor ones.

"I wanted to contact you at that time, but unfortunately I didn't have time." Zhu Jin opened his eyes and looked at the scratch on his wrist.

"When you were held hostage on the mountain, was it because Ye Banxia influenced you? Logically speaking, a man like him, who was also old, shouldn't have encountered such an accident. He is no match for you at all." Shi Shangbai changed the subject. Although it was a question, his tone was extremely certain.

Shi Shangbai was very clear about Zhu Jin's abilities. With his familiarity with the human body and Zhu Jin's improved fighting power, the hostages were no match for Zhu Jin. He could find the best opportunity to break free and subdue the hostages without any harm.

As a result, something unexpected happened, which means something unexpected happened in the middle, and this unexpected thing could only be Ye Banxia.

After listening to Zhu Jin's words, Ishigami Bai didn't rush to do things at the police station, but he still did what he should do.

After Shi Shangbai finished speaking, Zhu Jin's body stiffened for a moment, and after a pause, he replied, "He was the one who influenced me."

There was no telling what was in the syringe, and seeing Ye Banxia about to stab her arm, she had to attack in advance. It was not the best opportunity, and the final result was not satisfactory, but Zhu Jin could not have imagined that the most unsatisfactory thing was at the end.

"Your life... is too hard." Ishigami Bo paused for a long time, carried Zhu Jin onto the flying car and put him down. After starting the car, he turned his head to look at Zhu Jin and sighed.

"Ordinary people have a lot of troubles in their daily lives, let alone us. Don't you also need to deal with and solve these troubles all the time?" Zhu Jin didn't feel emotional.

"Yeah, trouble is not something that can be prevented. Constant trouble is also the mark of a successful person." Ishigami Bai nodded and sighed.

"Shi Shangbai, tell me, why did Ye Banxia do this?" Zhu Jin ignored his sigh. The two were silent for a while before Zhu Jin opened his mouth to ask, asking both Shi Shangbai and himself.

"Whatever the reason is, there must be a reason. It's better to check it out than to guess here," Ishigami Kashiwa suggested pragmatically.

"Have you checked?" Zhu Jin asked.

"Not yet. Didn't you tell me not to be anxious? I'm afraid I'll find out something first, and I can't help but get anxious." Ishigami Kashi clenched his fists, making a creaking sound. "What I want to do most now is to beat him up."

Zhu Jin: “…”

"Zhu Jin, our wedding tomorrow must be held as scheduled, no matter what. It must be held as scheduled." When Zhu Jin was speechless, Shi Shangbai suddenly said something, his tone was gentle but extremely firm.

He would not allow any accidents to happen at his wedding with Zhu Jin.

"Yeah." Zhu Jin looked at him and responded softly.
