That night.
The entire Major Crimes Squad 3 stayed behind to work overtime.
Guan Feng encouraged everyone, saying, "Although the leaders said they weren't in a hurry about this case involving foreign nationals, since we've solved it in less than a day, I hope everyone can work even harder to make it even better. Tonight, we'll report all the details of the case to the leaders and really make our Third Squadron famous!"
"The next phase mainly involves interrogations and wrap-up work, so the entire team doesn't need to be present. If you have an emergency at home, you can say so now and go home. Everyone else can stay and give it your all, is that alright?"
"no problem!"
"no problem!"
Everyone shook their heads.
No one wanted to go home.
The combat effectiveness of the entire Third Company is evident.
Guan Feng looked at Huang Lili and said, "Lili, do you want to go back?"
Huang Lili shook her head and said, "No need! I just called my mom and told her that I have to work overtime on the case and won't be home for dinner. When my mom heard that you were there, she said okay, and told me to listen to you and cooperate with your work."
Upon hearing this, Guan Feng smiled and said, "Aunt Wang is understanding, alright! Let's hurry up and sort out the case. When I report to the director tonight, I'll ask for permission to treat everyone to dinner tonight as a celebration of our promotion and raise."
Everyone cheered.
Zhao Yang laughed and said, "Captain, we should invite them! If we don't, Brother Liu and Brother Gao will have to treat us first."
Zheng Hua chuckled and said, "Oh, right, Brother Liu and Brother Gao, what do you two say? Are you treating each other separately, or are you treating each other together?"
Huang Lili chimed in, "How about... just the two of us?"
Guan Feng interrupted, saying, "You guys are just making a fuss! Sheng Guo and Da Cheng are different from me. They have families and work to support them. You two should treat everyone together later. Just invite the team members, maybe Liu Keming, the team leader."
Liu Shengguo said gratefully, "Thank you, Captain!"
Gao Dacheng said, "Hehe! Captain, I can't compare to you. With my meager salary, I'm still thinking about buying a house as soon as possible and bringing my wife and kids over."
Huang Lili added, "That's right! Captain, the biggest difference between Brother Liu and Brother Gao and you isn't making a living, right? It's that you get 100,000 yuan a month as an expert, which is more than enough to support several families."
How many families do you support?
Gao Dacheng chuckled and said, "Lily, you can't let your sister hear this, or she'll definitely beat you up."
Everyone burst into laughter.
Seeing the relaxed atmosphere, Guan Feng clapped his hands and said, "It's getting late, so let's keep the jokes to ourselves! Let's get back to work! Da Cheng, interrogate Liu Tianhua again and make sure the interrogation record is solid, especially with Chen Yan. She refuses to admit that she knew anything, so we can only make the evidence more detailed."
"Shengguo, go over here and retrieve the surveillance footage from the area near the villa to see if you can confirm that Chen Yan was near the villa last night."
"Lily, you organize the existing case files and be ready to close the case at any time!"
"Zhao Yang, come with me to interrogate Chen Yan again."
Guan Feng gave instructions one by one.
"receive!"
"receive!"
"receive!"
Everyone nodded and went about their business.
Guan Feng then led Zhao Yang to Chen Yan's interrogation room.
Although Chen Yan refused to explain the details of the case, they could still convict her without a confession. However, this would complicate the process, and the case would be sent back to the judicial authorities once or twice. Coupled with the mutual wrangling, the progress would be extremely slow.
Guan Feng thought that if he could get her to talk, he would try his best to avoid the path of conviction without a confession.
He arrived at the interrogation room.
Zhao Yang sat next to him.
Guan Feng looked at Chen Yan in front of him and said, "We meet again."
Chen Yan's face was no longer radiant; she seemed to have aged several years in an instant, with a withered and haggard appearance. She looked at Guan Feng bitterly and said, "I'm really wronged. You have to believe me. Doesn't the police rely on evidence when handling cases? Where is the evidence?"
Guan Feng looked at Chen Yan and said, "Are you convinced that as long as you don't confess, we can't convict you?"
Chen Yan's eyes darted away, avoiding Guan Feng's gaze, but she clearly held this belief as she whispered, "I just believe what I see."
Guan Feng said, "Chen Yan! I'm warning you not to make a mistake. We know exactly what role you played in this. Do you think such a big villa as Schulmer's wouldn't have some security cameras?"
Chen Yan's face paled, and she asked, "W-what do you mean?"
Guan Feng said, "It doesn't mean anything! I just wanted to give you a chance because you were just being stubborn, but judging from your appearance, it seems you don't need it. So just wait for your conviction without a confession."
He stood up and prepared to leave.
Seeing Guan Feng leave so decisively and gracefully, Chen Yan quickly called out to him, "Wait! Wait! I haven't finished speaking yet."
Guan Feng stopped and looked back at Chen Yan. He said calmly, "Is there anything else to say? What difference does it make whether you say it or not? It only concerns your own future and destiny. I have done more than enough, and I have given Zhao Feng an explanation!"
"Zhao Feng?"
As if she had just realized something, Chen Yan pressed on, "He asked you to come see me? What did he say? And where are the surveillance cameras at the Schulmer's house? Tell me!"
Guan Feng remained silent.
As the interrogation room door, a symbol of hope, slowly closed, Chen Yan felt as if her last lifeline had been drowned. She cried out excitedly, "Wait! I'll confess! I'll confess everything! Come back!"
Squeak!
The door was slammed shut.
Chen Yan became completely hysterical.
And at this time.
Squeak!
The door suddenly reopened.
Zhao Yang walked back and said, "Our captain is very busy and doesn't have time to make so many trips for one thing. You can tell me anything, and I will report to our captain."
As if grasping at a straw, Chen Yan asked Zhao Yang, "Is he your captain?"
Zhao Yang nodded and introduced, "Of course! The youngest squadron leader and deputy battalion commander in the entire Hua'an! Do you think he's like us? He came to see you because he was asked to. I advise you not to take this for granted."
Chen Yan asked, "So what he just said was true?"
Zhao Yang said, "I dare not comment on what the leader says. You figure it out yourself. Okay, do you want to explain yourself? If not, I'm leaving."
Chen Yan said, "Call your leader, that Captain Guan, back. I'll tell him everything when he comes."
Zhao Yang shook his head and said, "I already told you, the captain is busy and doesn't have time to see you."
Chen Yan, however, was still unwilling to give up.
Zhao Yang said, "Then you wait here. We'll see if the captain has time after he's done with his work." With that, he walked out of the interrogation room with his notebook.
Squeak!
The door closed again.
Chen Yan's face once again showed a look of utter bewilderment.
