"What? Um...Zhi, I don't understand what you're saying. I'm just a woman, and I'll listen to you anyway."
The woman followed Wu Tong and the others out the door and saw them off.
"Well, thank you for your cooperation. We will be leaving first."
Nodding goodbye, Wu Tong took Xiao Li back to Lu Zhicai's villa.
Ergou also came back at this time. As soon as he saw Wu Tong, he immediately came forward to greet him.
"Deputy Captain, I just checked all the houses nearby. Two of them were empty. One of the houses closest to us was owned by an elderly man. He said he was a light sleeper and heard someone smashing glass, so he got up to check. He didn't see anyone, just the lights in the house, nothing else."
"That sound of glass again? It's the same here, and the clues we got are similar to yours. It seems that Lu Zhicai is not telling us the truth!"
After summarizing the clues in his mind, Wu Tong came to this conclusion.
This farce of broken glass was most likely directed and acted by Lu Zhicai himself in order to deceive others!
"Let's go, let's go back and interrogate him again."
After they had a pretty good understanding of the situation, they drove back to the makeshift interrogation room.
During this operation, their investigation team arrested many people, and the detention center was full of them, so they chose this shabby school.
After all the people have been tried and those who should be released have been released, the guilty ones will be sent to prison.
Back in the interrogation room again, Wu Tong's eyes became even colder.
"This is the visit record. The neighbors around here all said they've never seen you move anything out, let alone put anything in. This neighbor said so too. What do you want to say?"
Hearing this result, Lu Zhicai broke out in a cold sweat.
"To conceal my identity, I bought the house a year in advance and moved everything late at night, over several days. When the neighbors saw me, I just said I was moving. They definitely didn't know."
"As for your question about why the neighbors didn't see us moving things out, I really don't know. Maybe the thieves had their eyes on our house for a long time and moved out quietly. I didn't see anything, so how would I know?"
Hearing his sophistry, Wu Tong immediately became angry.
"You still don't admit it? Even your neighbors said the glass was broken the day before yesterday. You said you divided it several times before moving your belongings in. Could those thieves have moved everything in less than a day? And they did it so secretly, without making any noise, and no one saw it?"
"How about I help you tell me if you deliberately broke the glass in advance to hide it from our sight?"
Lu Zhicai's expression was anxious, and he felt like he had no way to defend himself. How could he possibly explain this? He really didn't know!
"I, I really don't know! I did go to Tianjia Street the day before yesterday, but I went there for... for..."
Lu Zhicai didn't even dare to say why.
He went to Tianjia Street to get antiques and gold bars to bribe the police chief!
"Why? You probably knew we were going to arrest someone, so you set up a trap!"
"You think your protector is still with our authorities? He's already been reported! Otherwise, why do you think we raided? Because we knew you would run away!"
Wu Tong became more and more excited as he spoke, his saliva spurting out of his mouth. He was so angry that he stood up with his hands on his hips and scolded him.
"this……"
Lu Zhicai, who was speechless, could not utter a single word.
"I'm giving you a chance. Tell me why you went to Tianjia Street the day before yesterday. Tell me!"
If he really revealed the identity of the police chief, Lu Zhicai would be truly finished. How could he dare to say anything?
"I just want to go and see it in advance. No, not in advance, I just want to go and see it. Tianjia Street is where all my assets are placed. How could I not go and see it?"
This incoherent look was seen by everyone.
He spoke incoherently and couldn't explain the reason. Even Captain Luo shook his head.
"It seems you're right, Xiao Wu. Let's stop asking questions and just sentence him. He's such a coward, you won't get anything out of him no matter how many questions you ask."
The private dealings between wealthy businessmen and the underworld were not a one- or two-day affair, and this was what they were investigating. Even if Lu Zhicai didn't say anything, they could still make a rough guess.
"Captain Luo, Xiao Li, take him back and keep him separate from his two daughters. Don't lock them up together, or he might get into trouble."
