Since Lin Mai was present in all three surveillance videos that served as key evidence, it would be very unreasonable for Lin Mai to appear as an "eyewitness".
Because Lin Mai played both the thief and the witness, it was easy for the police to make associations and suspicions.
The best option for this layout is for Lin Mai to hide directly after playing the role of the thief, and let Wang Yifan act as the "eyewitness".
Not only did Wang Yifan refuse to act as a witness, he also asked the Song family to transfer the money directly to Lin Mai's card, which can only mean one thing...
He had thought from the beginning that this plan might go wrong, and he decided at that time that if the plan was exposed, he would just give up on Lin Mai...
After hearing what Wang Yifan said, Officer Tan Zhen frowned and replied, "Whether this matter has anything to do with you, just come with us to investigate and we'll know!"
Wang Yifan's face froze when he heard that. He smiled awkwardly twice, stood up awkwardly and walked out, winking at Lin Mai frantically.
He was hinting at Lin Mai to take all the blame on herself.
Lin Mai understood what Wang Yifan meant. She stood up as if she accepted her fate and followed Wang Yifan out.
But Song's father and mother were not so cooperative.
Song's father and mother said to Officer Tan Zhen that they really didn't understand why they were working together to set up this scheme!
Father Song said with a firm look on his face: "Comrade police, we were dazzled at the time! The light in my living room was dim, so we mistook Lin Mai, who sneaked in to steal, for Xia Shige! Now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, all of this was directed and acted by Lin Mai herself. She wanted to exonerate herself, and we have always been victims!"
Song's mother also insisted that she didn't know what happened to the large transfer. She pointed at Lin Mai and said, "This girl went to our living room to steal things last night. My bank card was on the table in the living room at that time! She must have taken the bank card and used it to steal money at that time!"
Listening to these people's flawed statements, Officer Tan Zhen couldn't help but frown.
Do these people think the police are there to do nothing?
Do you think you can get away with it this way?
Just when he was about to start scolding Song's father and mother, the door of 1601 nearby was opened.
Li Mengdi poked her head out from 1601. She first glanced at the people standing in the corridor, and then said to Officer Tan Zhen: "Comrade police, I have a piece of evidence here that should be able to prove that these people knew each other before..."
Amid the confused and surprised gazes of the crowd, Li Mengdi took out her cell phone and played a video for Officer Tan Zhen.
At the beginning of the video, Song's father and mother were standing at the door of 1602 and knocking gently.
After a while, the door opened and Lin Mai's voice came from the screen: "Who are you looking for?"
Father Song said to Lin Mai, "Hey, we are in room 1506 upstairs. We have something to discuss with you. Can you let us in to talk?"
Lin Mai seemed reluctant to let the two in, and hesitantly asked, "What's the matter? Let's talk about it here."
Song's father replied, "I just saw you arguing with the woman surnamed Xia from 1606 in the stairwell. I have a way to avenge her for you and drive her out of this community."
Lin Mai was slightly stunned when she heard this, then she turned sideways silently and said to Song's father and mother: "...Come in and talk."
Then, Song's father and mother walked straight in.
The moment the door of Room 1602 was closed, the video ended.
