Interrogation room.
Guan Feng looked at Chu Xiaohong and issued his final ultimatum:
"We have all the relevant evidence. Now you either resist to the bitter end, in which case we have a hundred ways to convict you without a confession! Or you obediently cooperate with our investigation, and we might consider your cooperation and grant you some leniency in your criminal case! Don't harbor any more illusions!"
As Guan Feng threatened her, a struggle appeared on Chu Xiaohong's face.
However, there has been no further indication of what's to come.
A moment later.
Guan Feng seemed to be getting a little impatient.
He looked at Gao Dacheng and Zhao Yang, waved his hand and said, "Since she won't talk, then let's leave it at that. Let her stay here and think it over. You two come with me, we have other tasks to do."
The three of them then prepared to leave.
Seeing Guan Feng and the other two preparing to leave, especially as the interrogation room door slowly closed, as if a door of hope had been shut off, Chu Xiaohong felt as if she had lost something of utmost importance. She blurted out, "Wait, wait! I'll confess!"
Guan Feng paused in his step, turned to look at Chu Xiaohong, and said, "Our patience is limited."
Chu Xiaohong nodded and said, "I understand! I will tell you everything."
Guan Feng, Gao Dacheng, and Zhao Yang sat back down.
Chu Xiaohong began to confess.
The related criminal situations are largely the same.
But an unexpected scene unfolded: Chu Xiaohong insisted that Li Ge was the mastermind behind it all, trying to create an opportunity for her to get injured.
She never expected that the two of them would turn the tables on her when things came to a head.
“If Li Ge hadn’t gone back on his word, how could Yang An have been injured? Li Ge knew the nature of the arrows; if he had simply dodged them lightly, he could have avoided a fatal blow to the heart, or at most a hit to the shoulder. How could such a serious consequence have occurred? He just wanted to drag me down with him! He did it on purpose!”
Chu Xiaohong's voice was hoarse and strained.
Listening to Chu Xiaohong's explanation, Guan Feng asked, "Do you have any evidence for all of this?"
Chu Xiaohong shook her head and said, "This is what Li Ge discussed with me at the beginning. He said that the betting agreement was about to expire this year and we had to think of a way. I didn't record it at the time. As for Chen Bing? She's a fool. She was being used by Li Ge without even realizing it."
Guan Feng said, "You should know! Our police work is all about evidence."
Chu Xiaohong nodded and said, "I know! I only hate myself for being so stupid. I've been deceived by him for so many years, and now I've been deceived again at the last minute. What I said is absolutely true. You have to believe me. Why would I lie at a time like this? Don't I know that this is just empty talk?"
Guan Feng frowned and remained silent as he looked at Chu Xiaohong, who was visibly agitated.
Based on micro-expression analysis, Chu Xiaohong's conversation at this moment should be genuine.
So, in this whole situation, is Li Ge the one standing at the top? Did he anticipate Chen Bing's and even Chu Hong's predictions? And are the two merely pawns he uses, the kind he can discard at any time?
Guan Feng said to Gao Dacheng, "You guys continue asking questions! Make sure the details are confirmed. I'm going out for a bit."
Gao Dacheng quickly agreed.
Guan Feng went outside, dialed Liu Shengguo's number, and asked, "Shengguo, have you arrived yet?"
Liu Shengguo said, "We just arrived at the hospital and haven't even gone inside yet. What's wrong, Captain?"
Guan Feng said, "You guys wait in the car first. There's been a small problem here. I'll discuss it with Captain Liu and then we'll take control."
"receive!"
Liu Shengguo nodded immediately.
Guan Feng then quickly went to the interrogation room next door.
When Liu Keming saw Guan Feng return, he realized something was wrong. He went out with Guan Feng and asked, "What happened?"
Guan Feng explained, "Chu Xiaohong confessed that Li Ge's injury was actually his own suggestion. In other words, the instigator of this incident was neither Chen Bing nor Chu Xiaohong, but Li Ge himself!"
Liu Keming was stunned for a moment.
Then, he looked at Guan Feng and asked, "What do you mean by micro-expression analysis?"
Guan Feng explained, "This is also what I need to report. Based on the analysis of Chu Xiaohong's micro-expressions, we can determine that there is no problem with what she said, especially regarding Li Ge. Therefore, what she said is probably true."
Liu Keming's brows furrowed again.
His face, already weathered and wrinkled, was now so serious it could stop a child from crying at night.
After a moment, he frowned and asked, "What do you plan to do?"
Guan Feng said, "I just called Liu Shengguo and told him not to act rashly. Also, I want to ask Chen Bing a few more questions to see if I can get him to confirm some details, which will help me make a judgment and solidify the direction of the next investigation."
Liu Keming nodded and said, "Your considerations make sense. What about Zhou Huai?"
Guan Feng said, "Let's proceed step by step!"
Liu Keming said, "Alright, let's bring the man back first. Don't make any rash moves with Li Ge. Let's see if we can dig up any more useful clues. I never expected that he was the one who started all this!"
Although there is no evidence yet, he has complete trust in Guan Feng's micro-expression analysis.
Leaving aside his past experiences, the fact that Guan Feng was able to confirm the relationship between Chu Xiaohong and Li Tian, and even the suspicions surrounding Chen Bing and Li Ge, was largely due to his timely and correct judgment.
Guan Feng said, "Let's ask Chen Bing first."
Liu Keming patted Guan Feng on the shoulder, and the two went into the room.
Chen Bing was somewhat surprised by Guan Feng's return and asked, "Didn't Sister Chu Hong explain anything?"
Guan Feng shook his head and said, "She confessed, but her version of events differs somewhat from yours."
Chen Bing suddenly realized and said, "She must be saying that I'm the mastermind, right? But what's the point of me doing this? If I really wanted to harm Li Ge, I could have used other methods, or even just watched him fail to meet the betting agreement and go bankrupt. Wouldn't that have been better?"
Guan Feng shook his head and said, "Chu Xiaohong said that all of this was proposed by Li Ge, and she was actually following Li Ge's arrangements."
Chen Bing was stunned, and murmured, "What did you say? Li...Ge's arrangement?"
Guan Feng nodded: "Surprised?"
Chen Bing stood there stunned, speechless for a long time.
Seeing this, Guan Feng didn't urge her. He waited until she recovered from her shock before slowly saying, "So the reason I came back this time is to ask you to think carefully about whether Li Ge has shown any unusual behavior during this period? For example, did he know about this matter in advance? Or did he behave in any other way that was different from before?"
Chen Bing frowned and thought for a while, then seemed to think of something, and her eyes gradually brightened.
