Loxin Amusement Park
To be honest, Yang Jie couldn't understand why they all came to the police station together.
Although the police station is indeed an excellent shelter for ordinary people who are threatened and can ensure that they are not harmed, the motives of these few people are really difficult to understand.
How could he be connected to a case from more than ten years ago, and why did he try so hard to expose it, and end up getting himself into trouble?
Moreover, they looked young and didn't seem like people who might have been involved in the murder case that year.
When this incident happened, I was very young, still in middle school. Because the case was quite sensational, I have a vague memory of it.
Later, after joining the police station, when occasionally checking unsolved cases at the end of the year, he might have noticed Cheng Nuoxin's case among the many missing cases.
It had been so long, and since there seemed to be no possibility of murder involved, there were no important cases to deal with.
Now that he knew that he had missed a murder case, he felt that he had not fulfilled his responsibilities.
However, there are many missing people in this city every year, and it is inevitable that the case will be left unsolved.
Since no one cares, why should we let everyone know and dig this matter up again at this seemingly peaceful and tranquil time?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at the few people quickly again.
"Don't be so polite, just call me Xiao Gao." From Gao Wenwen's perspective, it seemed like the other party was greeting him in high spirits.
The police officers here were quite friendly, so he decided to take the initiative and raised his arm to shake hands with them. He couldn't just neglect them.
Just as he was about to be polite, he found that Yang Jie grabbed his wrist, turned him around and led him to the side, as if he was going out of the house.
"Where are you going?" Is there a special meeting room here?
They are here to seek refuge, so there is no need to pay so much attention to them. They can just take care of themselves.
Yang Jie smiled and said, "According to police regulations, you are all persons related to the case. You will be interrogated as usual. Don't worry, as long as it is confirmed that you are not a suspect, you will be released soon..."
Halfway through his speech, he seemed to feel that this description was not quite accurate. "You will be able to go to the lounge soon. We can guarantee your personal safety for the next few days until everything is settled."
Yang Jie's words were like a signal. Several police officers who were originally sitting in front of the desk stood up one by one. The space suddenly became cramped, and it really felt like the situation was urgent.
No, no one told me in advance. Gao Wenwen twitched the corners of his mouth unsightly, wondering if they had just brought it upon themselves.
Although there is a risk of being hunted if you stay outside, there is still a chance to hide.
But now that I'm in the police station, things are completely different. There's nowhere to escape to, and I'll have to endure the psychological pressure from the police later.
He was speechless. Under the pressure from Yang Jie, Gao Wenwen didn't dare to show any displeasure, but he did roll his eyes at Lin He secretly.
He was standing a little further into the room, his hands in his pockets, and he had returned to his charismatic state.
It would be fine if he didn't mention this matter along the way, but if he was under police surveillance, it would be excusable.
Why didn’t you remind me when we met at the police station door just now?
Moreover, he believed that with Lin He's means, even if he was under strict control, he would definitely be able to pass information to the outside world.
It was obvious that he wanted to laugh at them on purpose.
It would be fine if it was just a joke, but if he was really tortured, he would have no way of explaining how he knew the truth behind the murder case.
By then, they might think that I was hiding something on purpose and they might actually lock me up.
So the corner of Gao Wenwen's heart that admired him became smaller and smaller.
"Just tell Captain Yang the truth." Lin He spoke at this time.
Ding Can looked over and seemed to understand what he meant.
The atmosphere was already like this, of course it was impossible, and there was no chance of refusal anymore. There were plenty of interrogation rooms in the police station, and they wouldn't need four more.
But after going out, Gao Wenwen complained quietly, not caring if anyone heard him.
Xia Jialian walked beside him and said, "Don't complain. We were just thinking about escaping before. In fact, if we had thought about it in advance, we knew this would happen."
Although the police station door is always open, it is impossible to trust a suspect for no reason, especially when the suspect is involved in a murder case.
When passing by several interrogation rooms, there were police officers stopping at the door, which proved that they were the ones in charge of the interrogation.
When there were only two rooms left, Gao Wenwen saw that Yang Jie was still about to move forward, so he immediately stopped and cast a look at Ding Can for help. For some reason, he felt a little scared when he saw Yang Jie.
It’s hard to tell whether it’s because he looks too upright or because he is the captain of the criminal investigation team.
Ding Can curled his lips, not wanting to argue with him, and followed Yang Jie to the last interrogation room.
Turning around, I saw him putting his hands together to express his gratitude to me, as if his life had been saved. At this time, he really looked more like a child.
When I entered the interrogation room, a female police officer was already waiting there, responsible for recording the rest of the conversation. The air conditioning was turned up very high, and she rubbed her exposed arms.
"Do you need a coat?" Yang Jie sat down at the table.
Ding Can nodded and said, "It would be best if you could have one, because the talk later might take quite a while."
Yang Jie raised his eyebrows imperceptibly, somewhat unexpectedly for her reaction. "Okay, if you need anything, feel free to let us know."
A few minutes later, the hot water and coat were ready, and the air conditioner temperature was lowered a bit. I finally felt more comfortable than before.
"Then let's get started. After our investigation, we found out that you appeared at the anniversary celebration of Loxin Amusement Park today. What was the reason for your presence there?"
"I work in the new media industry. You should be able to find out. I went there today for work."
It’s one thing to imagine it from the outside, but when you actually sit on this chair, your mentality will indeed be a little different.
I don’t know if the light and shadow here have been specially set up. From my angle, it seems that I am under the illumination of strong light, and all the darkness and filth have nowhere to hide.
Awe and fear intertwined together make it easiest for people to express their true feelings.
"About an old case from Science Popularization?"
Ding Can shook his head. "No, the lifestyle public account is supposed to awaken young people's childhood memories."
"Then how did your team stumble upon a corpse? A corpse that had been buried in the dark for years?"
Yang Jie's eyes were fixed on Ding Can's face. Even the slightest change in expression would not escape his eyes. He could tell at a glance if someone was lying.
But he still found what he heard next a little unbelievable.
"What if I say that I entered an illusion, and personally experienced what happened that year as a party involved?" Ding Can looked straight into his eyes without retreating at all.
Yang Jie leaned forward and asked, "Whose is it?"
"Cheng Nuoxin."
The other party didn't say anything, but the female police officer next to her paused with the pen in her hand: "Miss Ding, you are not kidding, are you?"
She cast a questioning look at Yang Jie, as if asking him whether he should first ask medical staff to check whether this person had any mental illness.
Ding Can chuckled quietly. "It sounds a bit unbelievable, but you should be able to find out. We had no contact with Lin He before today."
"So what?" Yang Jie asked.
"The reason we seem so familiar is because we experienced the same illusion in the amusement park. Although it sounds a bit weird, maybe it was the ghost of Cheng Nuoxin who was trapped in the amusement park who chose us."
Seeing that the leader did not move but seemed to be listening very attentively, the female police officer was a little at a loss. She even moved her feet under the table, hoping that the captain could understand what she was saying.
But it's being recorded now, which is completely different from the captain's previous vigorous and decisive approach to handling cases.
"You must have exchanged your statements in advance." Yang Jie ignored his colleague's reminder.
Therefore, the reasons Lin He gave were probably similar. As for why they trusted Lin He, it was probably because he provided effective clues that could be verified.
"It's not common for so many people to lie in the same situation. Perhaps we can find an expert to identify our behavior."
If the truth about some important matters is concealed, there will definitely be no flaws to be found.
Yang Jie paused and said, "Why don't you tell me what you experienced in the illusion?"
This was the moment he had been waiting for. Ding Can relaxed his fingers on the table slightly, ready to explain everything in detail.
Many details that only existed decades ago cannot be faked if you are interested in understanding them, and can only be explained by personal experience.
Moreover, even if Yang Jie is really not capable, the priority now is to solve this murder case.
If they really have any doubts hidden in their hearts, they will put them aside to be resolved later, but by that time, they will have already left here.
"The first time point I went back to was after Cheng Nuoxin's college entrance exam."
Ding Can told the whole story in full, and the female police officer opposite, who was originally skeptical, was the most fascinated by what he said and became filled with indignation.
"Isn't Cai Li a complete liar?"
He concealed the murder of Xue Xiang and lived with Cheng Nuoxin as a family member under deception. When the truth was finally revealed, he took the other person's life in anger.
Yang Jie immediately counterattacked and reminded: "It's being recorded, please pay attention to your professionalism."
The female police officer sighed and lowered her head, only to realize that she had forgotten to keep records since she didn't know when, and most of the page in the notebook was left blank.
She straightened her expression and said stubbornly, "Ms. Ding, your story sounds very true, but it's just your one-sided account. We can't verify its authenticity."
"There is a way to prove it, and it will be quick." Ding Can sat up straighter.
"What method?" asked the female police officer.
"Cai Li can help me prove it."
The female police officer's eyes widened: "If I remember correctly, you want to expose his crimes."
"Yes," Ding Can said with certainty, "so he will definitely not help me to perjure myself. Just ask him about things that only he and Cheng Nuoxin know about in private. As long as I can answer them, it means I am not lying."
