Guan Feng had been waiting for this call.
When he saw the number displaying the name "Liu Shengguo," he immediately answered the phone and asked, "Shengguo, what's the situation on your end?"
"A discovery!"
Liu Shengguo's first words made Guan Feng's expression change. He said, "Captain, I just checked. At 8:26, Yan Jiang and his daughter Yan Jing had a phone conversation that lasted only 20 seconds. It must have been a brief message."
Guan Feng nodded and said, "I understand. The surveillance footage also shows that Yan Jiang appeared near Chen Shujuan's rented house. We are going there now. The location is at the intersection in front of Chen Shujuan's rented house, at a hot pot restaurant called Dalongkan."
Liu Shengguo immediately said, "I'll go right away."
......
Twenty minutes later.
Guan Feng, Liu Shengguo, and others met up.
The three entered the hot pot restaurant, and Guan Feng used the same trick again, retrieving relevant footage from the restaurant's surveillance video and discovering that Yan Jiang and his daughter Yan Jing had indeed met at the restaurant entrance.
He frowned and said, "It seems that it was not one person who entered the house, but two! Our previous investigation was misled; we only thought it was a problem with one person. Now it seems that it was very likely that two people entered the house at the same time, or even that Yan Jiang actually committed the harm!"
Qi Xia said, "This also explains why Yan Jing didn't spend much time washing up after returning home. It's because she wasn't the one who did it, and she was even quite far away at the time, so she didn't get any blood on her."
Guan Feng nodded affirmatively and said, "Your deduction is sound."
He then looked at the group and said, "Let's go. The clues we have are enough to prove Yan Jiang's suspicion. All that's left is to take him back for further investigation and refine the details."
The group immediately rushed to the hospital.
......
5th floor of the administration building.
Knock knock knock!
When Guan Feng knocked on the vice dean's office door, it took several knocks before the door opened, revealing Yan Jiang, who looked somewhat distracted. He said, "Sorry! I was busy just now. Who are you? Do you need something?"
Guan Feng showed his identification and said, "We are from the Municipal Public Security Bureau's Major Crimes Unit. We are here to ask you about the murder of Chen Shujuan."
Vice Dean Yan Jiang's expression changed instantly. He then shook his head and frowned, saying, "Chen Shujuan? Who is that? I don't know her!"
Guan Feng pulled out the call log, pointed to a string of numbers, and asked, "Is this the phone number you're using? Tell me, if you don't know her, why did you call Chen Shujuan twice?"
Yan Jiang's expression changed again.
He stared at the number for a moment, then said, "Yes, yes? Please wait a moment, I'll go get my reading glasses."
He returned to his desk, opened his glasses case, took out his reading glasses, and carefully compared each number one by one.
After a moment, he frowned and said, "How could this be? How could I make this call? Could it be that Yan Jing used my phone to make this call?" As he spoke, he muttered to himself, wanting to call Yan Jing.
Guan Feng watched his performance quietly.
Yan Jiang sat in his office chair and dialed Yan Jing's number several times, but couldn't get through. After a moment, he frowned and said, "What's going on? Why isn't this girl answering the phone?"
Guan Feng said calmly, "Yan Jiang and Yan Jing have already been arrested by us."
Yan Jiang asked, "Why?"
Guan Feng said, "Murder!"
Yan Jiang's eyelids twitched, and he asked with an incredulous expression, "Who? How is this possible? How could she kill someone? Why?"
Guan Feng warned, "Chen Jun had an affair with a nurse who was an intern in the department. She found out, and he couldn't handle the shock, so he killed her in a fit of rage. Yan Jiang, are you completely unaware of this? Or are you just going to watch your child go to jail?"
Yan Jiang's expression changed again. He said, "What are you saying? I can't hear you at all."
He took off his reading glasses, wiped the dust off them, and said, "I'm sorry, I haven't worn these glasses in a long time, they're a bit dusty, and they always feel uncomfortable to wear."
Guan Feng watched as the other man used these subtle actions to relieve pressure and reminded him, "Yan Jiang, I'm giving you one last chance. You should know what a crime it is to cover up a victim, especially a murder! Now Yan Jing has taken all the blame. Is that a light crime? I know what you're thinking, but if we didn't have evidence, would we be coming after you?"
Yan Jiang's expression began to change, and then he began to break down.
A moment later.
After crying, he wiped his eyes with a glasses cloth and asked, "If I were to confess, how would Yan Jing be punished?"
Guan Feng briefly described: "Considering her role in this case, we cannot completely exempt her from criminal liability, but we will try our best to achieve a good outcome, which is at least better than paying for a murder with one's life!"
Yan Jiang sighed and said, "That's not what I want. What father would be willing to send his daughter to her death? What father would be willing to send his daughter to her death?"
Guan Feng pulled out a piece of paper and handed it over, saying, "Tell me! Why did you make Yan Jing take the blame?"
Yan Jiang shook his head and said, "It's not what I wanted. Yan Jing insisted on doing it this way. She said she didn't want to live anymore and asked me to grant her wish. Otherwise, if I get arrested, she will follow in my footsteps the next day. What can a father like me do?"
Guan Feng said, "Yan Jiang, speak slowly."
Under Yan Jiang's tearful confession, the truth of the matter gradually came to light. It turned out that Yan Jiang had taken a liking to Chen Jun, thinking he was a smart, studious, and down-to-earth young man who was also handsome. So he used his future and destiny to lure him in.
Unexpectedly, a few years after their marriage, Chen Jun gradually revealed his true colors and began to have extramarital affairs.
Yan Jing naturally couldn't stand it and argued with Chen Jun, causing their relationship to deteriorate further and further, almost leading to their separation.
Seeing that the conflict between the two parties was out of control, Yan Jiang stepped in to mediate and tried to persuade his daughter to be patient. However, his daughter accused him of misjudging her and ruining her life's happiness if he hadn't brought them together in the first place.
Yan Jiang felt that his daughter was right. His wife had passed away early, and he wanted his daughter to marry a reliable and down-to-earth man. He never expected that his daughter would suffer such injustice.
He began to investigate Chen Jun, only to discover that Chen Jun not only had mistresses outside, but also frequented clubs, and his private life was so chaotic that he was almost hospitalized. At the same time, the guilt in his heart grew stronger.
He confronted Chen Jun directly.
Chen Jun began to repent and stated that Chen Shujuan had seduced him.
Chen Jun asserted with certainty that when a young, attractive woman lies naked in bed, what man could resist? This isn't about whether it's seductive or not; it's about whether a man is normal or not!
