The atmosphere at the scene froze as Li Ge spoke.
Huang Lili, who was following behind the crowd, had a hint of excitement on her face. She even pointed the camera on her shoulder at Li Ge, trying to get a clearer shot.
In front of the crowd.
Guan Feng said calmly, "Then you at least admit that you and Chu Xiaohong once discussed using injury to postpone the betting agreement?"
Li Ge realized he had misspoke, but seeing the menacing stares of everyone, especially the body cameras on their shoulders, he had no choice but to grit his teeth and continue. He tried to pull back his words, saying, "Yes! I did tell her, but it was just a joke! It wasn't real. Who knew Chu Xiaohong would actually do something like this behind my back? It's despicable! She's using someone else's life as a bargaining chip! I would never do that!"
Guan Feng watched Li Ge act quietly, and after a moment said calmly, "Finished?"
Li Ge: "???"
He broke down and said loudly, "I really didn't do any of this. I didn't even know they were buying arrows. It was only when Chen Bing told me at the last minute that I realized something was wrong. I was so flustered that I fell off my horse."
Guan Feng countered, "So, you actually knew beforehand that the arrows had been replaced?"
Li Ge's expression changed again, and he wished he could slap himself.
You just made a slip of the tongue once, how come you made another one?
But these words have already been spoken, especially in front of so many people, and it's impossible to deny them.
He could only say, "I do know! Chen Bing reminded me that the arrows had been changed and that I should be careful to avoid them."
Guan Feng asked, "Then why didn't you do it?"
Li Ge hesitated for a moment, sighed, and took the opportunity to quickly organize his thoughts, saying, "I would like to! But after Chen Bing told me, I was very anxious and completely distracted. That day, the horse seemed to have a problem too. I don't know what happened, but I fell off the horse and it landed on my chest, which led to the series of events that followed."
Guan Feng looked at Li Ge and asked, "What about Yang An's matter?"
Li Ge said with a guilty look, "That's what I wanted to say too. When I fell off the horse, I felt a tightness in my chest. The medical staff on site arrived and said that I might have a fracture and needed to be sent to the hospital immediately. I was going to remind the crew, but I forgot about it because of the delay."
Guan Feng asked, "Did you forget, or did you deliberately choose not to say?"
Li Ge blinked, his face remaining calm and composed as he said, "I really forgot! How could I possibly witness someone getting injured? Yang An has been my stunt double for many years. I need his help for every film. Without him, where would I find a stunt double like him? It would even delay my filming for several years."
Guan Feng said, "If that's the case, then Yang An is so indispensable, wouldn't that be even better? It would be perfect to postpone the betting agreement."
Li Ge: "???"
This logic... seems flawless!
He said somewhat sheepishly, "Captain Guan, I know you won't believe anything I say now, but please rest assured, I'm really not that kind of person. I would never do such a thing. It goes against my morals and principles. Murder? I wouldn't even dare to do it in my dreams."
Guan Feng coldly observed and said, "Whether it is true or not is another matter, but you are now suspected of deliberately misleading or even obstructing our investigation!"
"Intentional misleading? Obstruction?"
Li Ge asked in confusion, "What...what do you mean?"
Guan Feng looked at Huang Lili and said, "Lili, you read out our rules!"
Huang Lili stepped forward, straightened her clothes, and then solemnly read out the relevant regulations to Li Ge: "According to Article XX and XX of the Criminal Law, during your previous investigation, you deliberately denied and failed to understand the fact that the arrows had been replaced, which has misled our police investigation. We have the right to prosecute you for intentional obstruction! Please be aware of this!"
Li Ge felt as if he was about to spit out a mouthful of blood.
The suspicion of intentional homicide has not yet been cleared, and now there's this charge of intentional obstruction?
He looked at Guan Feng with pleading eyes, as if to say, "Please spare me!"
Guan Feng didn't bother to look at him anymore and said indifferently, "What else do you want to say? If you have nothing to say, then cooperate with our work!"
Seeing that Li Ge seemed resigned to his fate, he said to the others, "Move the people first!"
Gao Dacheng and the others stepped forward, pushed the hospital bed out of the room, and then pushed it toward the ambulance.
Zhou Huai and Guan Feng walked side by side behind. Looking at the busy group in front, Zhou Huai smiled and said with admiration, "Well done, Guan Feng. Li Ge actually admitted it. This micro-expression analysis is truly remarkable."
Guan Feng shook his head and said, "Li Ge is very tight-lipped. What he said just now is only enough to charge him with obstructing official business."
Zhou Huai patted Guan Feng on the shoulder and said, "That at least proves that he knew about it. With this evidence, it would be enough to charge him with being an accomplice. Besides, since he has already been charged with obstructing official business, he can't escape a seven-day package. These few days are just enough for us to gather all the evidence. We don't have to worry about him fleeing to avoid punishment."
Guan Feng nodded and said, "That's what I was thinking too! Otherwise, considering the impact, it would be really difficult to charge someone of this level with a crime like obstructing official business."
This kind of crime can be serious or minor.
If Li Ge hadn't been asked to assist in the investigation, it wouldn't have been appropriate to use this charge against him, given his position as a committee member.
Zhou Huai laughed and said, "It's getting late, let's go! Let's take him back to the Municipal Bureau first, Director Chen and Lao Liu are probably getting impatient."
Guan Feng then got into the car with Zhou Huai.
Police cars roared by.
The group headed straight for the Municipal Public Security Bureau.
When everyone arrived at the Municipal Bureau, Zhao Dong and Liu Keming personally came downstairs to greet them.
"Team Leader!"
"Zhao Zhi!"
Zhou Huai and other members of the branch office all greeted him.
Zhao Dongchong and the others nodded in acknowledgment, then turned their gaze to Guan Feng and asked, "So? Did Li Ge admit it?"
Guan Feng nodded and said, "He admitted it, but explained that he was joking with Li Hong. We can continue to investigate this. He also admitted that Chen Bing tipped him off in advance, but he was injured and didn't have time to warn her. For now... we'll bring him back for further investigation on charges of obstructing official business."
Upon hearing Guan Feng's words, Zhao Dong immediately nodded and said, "Well done! Since you have a plan, let's continue the investigation. But it's already late, so there's no rush. Let's eat first. I've asked the cafeteria to save some food for everyone. Come on, let's eat and talk!"
