Around 2 p.m., Liu Haizhong and Xu Damao returned to the courtyard house together.
The two people themselves were fine, so after asking them some questions and confirming that there were no problems, they were allowed to go home first.
The old lady who had been waiting at the door rushed to greet her husband when she saw him return.
"Honey, are you alright?"
"What could possibly be wrong with me? Let me tell you, the police officers were very polite and even treated me to a meal!"
Liu Haizhong looked incredibly smug, as if he wanted everyone to know that he was doing just fine!
At this moment, Qin Jingru also ran over, "Brother Da Mao, you scared me to death! If you hadn't come back, I was just about to go to my parents' house!"
"It's nothing, it's nothing. The police were just asking a routine question, they didn't mean anything by it. Didn't you hear what your second uncle said? They even treated us to a meal!"
At this moment, Yan Bugui saw that only two people had returned. While secretly pleased, he pretended to ask.
"Old Liu, Da Mao, why are there only two of you? Where are the others?"
"Old Yan, I'm not trying to be mean, but is this the kind of thing you should be asking about? Be careful not to get yourself into trouble."
When Liu Haizhong left the police station, the police warned him not to reveal any details when he returned.
Therefore, he was very adept at using the "fox borrowing the tiger's might" tactic, which completely intimidated Yan Bugui, who didn't dare to ask any more questions.
Xu Damao also gave a disdainful look, and the two of them strode into the courtyard like victorious generals returning to court...
On the other side.
Qin Huairu, now at the police station, was already familiar with the station's questioning procedures and was able to handle them with ease.
Anyway, she won't talk about the affair, so she'll just make up stories about other things!
Just as the interrogation reached a stalemate, a policeman walked in from outside, whispered a few words in Zhang's ear, and then left the interrogation room.
After the policeman left, Officer Zhang revealed a strange smile.
"Qin Huairu, it seems you're not being honest. Since you don't want to talk, I won't ask anymore. Anyway, Yi Zhonghai has already confessed, so you can just wait to rot in jail!"
After finishing his speech, Officer Zhang stood up without hesitation and prepared to leave.
This action terrified Qin Huairu.
"Wait, Officer Zhang, please wait a moment."
As Officer Zhang reached the door, a smile involuntarily crept onto his lips, but he quickly switched to a serious expression and slowly turned his head away.
"What? Is there anything else you want to say?"
"Officer Zhang, you can't wrong me. I've never killed anyone."
Qin Huairu's voice trembled slightly with fear, and she had lost her composure from before.
Seeing that this tactic was effective, Officer Zhang continued to fabricate stories.
“Qin Huairu, we have never said that you have killed anyone, but Yi Zhonghai has already confessed that he committed this murder for money because of you. Therefore, you should be considered an accomplice.”
"He's talking nonsense. I only asked him for money, I didn't ask him to kill anyone, how could I be an accomplice?"
Qin Huairu had lost her composure at this point, and spoke without thinking.
Upon hearing this, Officer Zhang was overjoyed. The breakthrough had been found, and now it was time to reap the rewards.
So he began to subtly guide her, while also hinting to Qin Huairu that if she could confess something useful, she could atone for her crime.
Finally, under the combined pressure of coercion and incentives from Zhang Gong'an, Qin Huairu spilled the beans, revealing all the unspeakable things they had done in the past.
At the same time, she also revealed an important piece of information: Yi Zhonghai had once made a small gadget, which was probably a tool for prying open doors.
However, Qin Huairu concealed some things from this.
For example, regarding the matter of seducing Yi Zhonghai, she embellished her own actions, saying that she was threatened by him and had no choice but to do so.
As for Yi Zhonghai giving her money, it was to silence her; a weak woman like her wouldn't dare to resist.
Otherwise, the deaf old lady's fate would have been her destiny.
In short, Qin Huairu made herself sound as miserable as possible in order to sever ties and extricate herself unscathed.
After recording the statement, Officer Zhang read it aloud line by line, and then had Qin Huairu sign and affix her fingerprint.
With these testimonies, the interrogations on the other two sides should also be able to break through quickly.
As for whether there was any exaggeration in this statement, Officer Zhang believed there definitely was.
But all of this was irrelevant to him; that was something for the leaders to consider. All he needed to do was solve the case.
"Captain Zhang, we've secured Qin Huairu's case. This should be very helpful in interrogating Yi Zhonghai. Please take a look."
In the office, Officer Zhang was happily reporting his findings before placing the confession on the table.
"Hmm! Let me see."
Captain Zhang picked up the statement and quickly skimmed through it.
A moment later, Captain Zhang put down his statement, stood up and paced back and forth in the room a few steps, but then suddenly stopped.
"Xiao Zhang, go and interrogate Yi Zhonghai's wife again. When the time is right, you can reveal some of Qin Huairu's confession and see if there are any unexpected gains."
"yes."
After receiving his orders, Officer Zhang picked up the statement and went to the interrogation room where Aunt Yi was being held.
The female police officer in charge of guarding the interrogation room quickly brought over a chair when she saw that another interrogation had begun.
After sitting down, Officer Zhang didn't beat around the bush and spoke directly.
"Zhou Xiulian, still have nothing to say? However, Qin Huairu in the interrogation room next door has already confessed. Do you want to hear it?"
Originally, Aunt Yi was prepared to remain silent, but upon hearing the name "vixen," she couldn't hold back and began to curse.
"What did that vixen say? She's just talking nonsense, you can't believe her."
"Oh!" Officer Zhang smiled calmly. "So you knew she was a vixen too. What? You knew all along that she was having an affair with your husband behind your back?"
"What?" Aunt Yi was stunned.
Although she called her a vixen, it was just her catchphrase; she had never actually seen her like that before. She never expected that she would actually be right.
The two then engaged in a question-and-answer session, during which Officer Zhang revealed a considerable amount of information.
At this point, Aunt Yi had every reason to believe that Officer Zhang was not lying to her.
Because there are some characteristics and details that would be impossible for anyone other than Yi Zhonghai's bedmate to know.
The thought of Yi Zhonghai spending money to support women outside the marriage and even killing someone for this slut shows that he never considered what would happen to the mother and her three children in the future.
Aunt Yi was instantly filled with rage.
Then, still uneasy, she asked, "Officer Zhang, I want to report and expose Yi Zhonghai, and I want to sever ties with him. Is it too late now?"
"Of course, if you can provide strong evidence, you will not only be blameless but also meritorious. Otherwise, you will not be able to escape the consequences in the end. What will you do with your two children then?"
Sure enough, Officer Zhang was very good at manipulating people's hearts. As soon as the child was mentioned, Aunt Yi gave up resisting and confessed everything that happened that night.
At the same time, she also revealed the gold ingots and gold rings in the house, indicating that they were the old lady's living expenses.
In the end, Aunt Yi was still a little worried, so she emphasized it again.
"Officer, I really didn't know he would kill someone that night, otherwise I would have stopped him no matter what."
"Okay, we believe you. At the same time, you've given yourself a chance. Otherwise, given your cover-up, you'd definitely be in jail for several years."
"Oh no! I'll have to go to jail! What will happen to my child?"
When Zhang Gonggong realized that Aunt Yi did not understand his meaning, he immediately added.
"Don't worry, I was talking about the past. Now that you've made a good report, you won't be in any trouble."
