Evidence changed again
"Jiangchuan Valley has recanted his testimony."
"What the hell are you doing?!"
When Lin Chaoying entered the police station lobby, she overheard Qi Gong and Jiang Xu talking.
Jiang Xu saw her and rushed over hurriedly, "Did you hear that? Jiang Chuangu has changed his testimony again?"
"Isn't this a good thing?" Lin Chaoying said calmly, "Now, with Linlin's testimony and Jiang Chuan Gu's statement, the police will definitely find new clues, and he will be released soon."
Jiang Xu said worriedly, "Then tell me, won't this back and forth irritate the police?"
Lin Chaoying was too lazy to argue. "The police have their own brains, right? Even if it's all just testimonies, as long as he didn't kill the person, they'll clear his name. It's just a matter of time."
Jiang Xu asked in confusion, "According to what you're saying, you were both taking sleeping pills and being anxious last night."
"Isn't this what you call public opinion?" Lin Chaoying said with lingering fear, "But if someone manipulates all the evidence, then we're finished."
Why did you harm Jiangchuan Valley?
A policeman walked over and said that new evidence had been discovered and that Jiang Xu and Lin Chaoying's cooperation was needed.
After the police separated them and took them away, the officer first introduced himself: "I am the main person in charge of this case, my surname is Li."
"Officer Li." Lin Chaoying followed him through the public office area and into the conference room. "I thought we were going into the interrogation room."
Officer Li smiled and said, "You're neither a suspect nor a witness, and you're not really involved in the case. You weren't even at the mountain guesthouse on the day of the murder. Why would we lock you in the interrogation room? I just have some questions I'd like to ask."
It turns out that in the three days following the incident, the police had already screened all the suspects.
Officer Li, with a kind face, handed her warm water, saying, "I heard from my colleagues today that you helped comfort Linlin."
Linlin's repeated changes of testimony are indeed suspicious.
Lin Chaoying feigned concern: "Officer Li, to be honest with you, you know that although I'm not Linlin's relative, my sister has been working at my guesthouse, so I treat her like my own sister. When I came back yesterday, she didn't even look like my sister anymore!"
"Doesn't seem like it?" Officer Li asked doubtfully. "Could you be more specific?"
Lin Chaoying sighed heavily, "Linlin is timid by nature, but she is very kind and hardworking. Her eyes are like those of a wild rabbit in the mountains. Have you ever seen them? They are so clean and pure. When I came back yesterday, Linlin was speaking haltingly, and her eyes looked fake!"
She deliberately became more and more agitated as she spoke, "She was completely obsessed, going back and forth. I even asked the doctor, who said there was nothing wrong, but I just felt something was off, so I tested her a few times. She could answer all the normal questions, but when it came to Jiang Chuan Gu, I didn't even ask her anything. As soon as she heard the name, she started saying that Jiang Chuan Gu had committed murder, how he killed someone at the door, and the story was exactly the same both times. Officer, isn't that strange...?"
"I see." Officer Li, being quite astute, added, "You suspect that Linlin has been brainwashed?"
“Yes!” Lin Chaoying continued, “Linlin shouldn’t have a physical examination; she should see a psychologist to check for mental health issues.”
Officer Li agreed, "Okay, I'll arrange it today."
Lin Chaoying tentatively said, "There's one more thing. If there are any problems, can you let me know first? Her family only asks her for money and doesn't care whether she lives or dies."
“I understand.” Officer Li looked down and typed something on his phone, then took a folder from the table. “Since you happened to be here today, I have something more important to ask you.”
Lin Chaoying: "Please speak."
Officer Li: "We found the deceased's computer at the scene. Because the damage was too severe, our technical staff only managed to repair it today. It turns out there was a camera at the scene that day."
"Cameras?" Lin Chaoying realized. "You mean Jiang Chuangu and Li Chao installed cameras after decorating the guesthouse?"
Officer Li was stunned. He looked her over and immediately became wary, saying, "It's not surprising that you know the deceased's name is Li Chao, since it's all over the internet. But how do you know that the two of them had set up a guesthouse?"
Lin Chaoying: "Didn't you see it?"
Officer Li: "What?"
Lin Chaoying honestly said, "I went into the crime scene. I went in on the first day I came back, to see how it had been damaged, because I still have business to do."
Officer Li breathed a sigh of relief. "I see." He opened the folder and continued, "This camera captured a second person at the scene, and we suspect that he is the real murderer."
!!
Lin Chaoying was secretly delighted, but remained outwardly calm, saying, "Really? When will Linlin and Jiang Chuangu be released?"
Officer Li: "Linlin will be able to leave soon. Jiang Chuan Gu will be there in the evening. There will be another round of questioning, and if the autopsy report is cleared, his suspicion will be basically cleared."
Lin Chaoying couldn't wait to watch the direct shot of the "real culprit".
Officer Li: "You can take a look at these photos. Have you seen him in Hoh Xil?"
In the first photo, the bald man has his back to the camera, his hands are covered in blood, and there are even bloody streaks...
The second photo shows a man straddling Le Chieu, with his hands inside Le Chieu's...stomach...
The third photo is the one where the man is closest to the camera. Although it's just a blurry profile, you can see a scar on half of his face...
Lin Chaoying was shocked again, "What you showed me were photos, but it was actually a video, right?"
Officer Li nodded.
Lin Chaoying's voice trembled violently: "Can I watch the original video?"
Officer Li refused: "This is evidence related to the case and cannot be shown casually. I'm showing you the photos today because you are the owner of Hoh Xil."
“I know Li Chao,” Lin Chaoying said urgently. “I know the true relationship and past between Li Chao and Jiang Chuangu. I believe Jiang Xu has told me all of this. I just want to know what exactly happened to this friend before he died?”
Officer Li remained skeptical, saying, "I know your background. You grew up in Fengcheng and only came to Jiazhou to open a guesthouse in the last two years. You have no connection with Jiangchuan Valley or Li Chao..."
“Li Chao was originally a trainee, the fifth batch of trainees from HQ Group. He was supposed to debut as the captain of ATW-7, but he withdrew due to family reasons. Jiang Chuangu became the seventh member of ATW-7.” Lin Chaoying spoke earnestly, her expression sincere. “The reason why we can’t find any information about Li Chao or his trainee status online is because his father looks down on the entertainment industry and signed an agreement with President Guan of HQ Group that anything about Li Chao’s past must be kept confidential. You can confirm this with Jiang Chuangu and Jiang Xu. Every word I’m saying is true!”
This output caught Officer Li off guard. No wonder he saw her talking to Jiang Xu earlier; upon reflection, it must be because she hadn't dug deep enough into the internal network.
He maintained his bottom line, "I can't show you the video, but I can tell you the general situation. The recording isn't complete. This man appeared on camera about five times. The first time was when the two were fighting. The second time was in the first photo you saw; I suspect Li Chao was already dead at this point. The third time was when he was like a wild beast, dragging Li Chao around the room and hitting him repeatedly. The fourth time was in the second photo you saw; he started to tamper with Li Chao's organs. Finally, in the third photo you saw, as he was about to leave, he seemed to be answering a phone call and saying a few words..."
Lin Chaoying couldn't hold back any longer, practically spitting out each word through her back teeth, "Can a person really be so cruel?"
"Knock knock knock-" The young policeman pushed open the door, poked his head in and said, "Captain Li, there's a new situation."
Officer Li gestured for him to wait.
Lin Chaoying closed her eyes and instantly picked up the sound of the two talking as they walked to the end of the corridor.
The young policeman said, "The forensic autopsy report is in. The soft tissue deep inside Li Chao's body is not Jiang Chuan Valley's."
After the sound of a page turning, Officer Li said, "It's on the knife."
The young policeman said, "The second fingerprint DNA on the knife matches the DNA residue in Li Chao's body."
"And this too." After a few soft clicks, the young policeman said, "Linlin provided new evidence. She wanted to film Jiang Chuan Gu, so she placed her phone on her chest. Although the phone was lost, fortunately, her phone had automatic backup enabled on cloud storage. As long as you log into your cloud storage account, you can see it. It's a long video and several blurry photos. This video just happened to record Jiang Chuan Gu returning to his room and opening the door. It accurately records how Jiang Chuan Gu was framed."
The audio was very soft.
The young policeman said, "Look, the moment Linlin fainted, the camera just captured the bald man preparing to put the knife in Jiang Chuan Gu's hand."
Officer Li: "Once this evidence is compiled, I'll report it now and find someone to process the paperwork for Jiang Chuangu. He'll be released tonight, and a statement will be issued tomorrow to minimize the attention given to this serious case and avoid panic. Linlin, don't go back yet. I've arranged for a psychologist; you arrange for someone to take her for testing."
Young policeman: "Okay."
Lin Chaoying snapped out of her daze and opened her eyes.
Officer Li pushed open the door and came in. "Linlin has another test that will be a little later. Do you want to wait for her or do you want us to take her home?"
"It's alright." Lin Chaoying stood up and said generously, "Linlin is in a bad mood right now. I promised to take her home. She can wait in the lobby."
On the way to Lin Chaoying's house, Officer Li added, "Please keep what we just said a secret. If you have any further information about this man, please keep the police informed immediately."
Lin Chaoying: Okay
After all that fuss, her stomach started rumbling. She opened the map to look around and found a beef noodle restaurant nearby.
Lin Chaoying sent a message to Zhou Pei: Prepare three rooms, someone will be checking in tonight.
Zhou Pei: Okay.
After swallowing the hot, spicy noodle soup, her stomach instantly came back to life. Lin Chaoying opened Weibo, and Jiangchuan Valley was still trending high, with [Jiangchuan Valley Jiang Xu], [Jiangchuan Valley Li Chao], [Jiangchuan Valley Family] and other related topics dominating the top 5.
Curious, she clicked on the discussion group, where a new discussion thread had been created, this time titled "[Jiang Xu IP landed in Jiaozhou]".
[Is the old captain too fond of this?]
When has the old captain never loved?
Shuangjiang 99 is terrifyingly strong.
Was the old captain there to bail out Brother Gu, or to question Brother Gu about who he loved?
Given the extent of the captain's affection, he should have been released on bail first, then questioned.
[Isn't the old captain always been portrayed as a pushover? It's not surprising; it seems like he'd help anyone in the team who's in a similar situation.]
[I disagree. After all, someone next door has been unemployed and picking their toes at home for half a year, and the old team leader didn't help them at all.]
[Back when the group was fighting on trending topics, he didn't do anything about it?]
[ATW-7 is really amazing; they've been around for over a decade and they're still having new and exciting events...]
This group has always had this kind of spirit: they can't stand seeing their brothers suffer, and they certainly can't stand seeing them enjoy themselves.
Am I the only one curious about Gu Zige's succubus persona? Men are all captivated by him, some giving their lives, others everything.
[Can Fumo go out and ship her? Gu Zige's masculinity is so overpowering, whose bottom is 186cm tall with a cold, ghostly aura?]
[Upstairs, how about a ghost bride?]
[My God, Gu Zi's looks and physique are the epitome of manhood, the best of the best, and the most monstrous of the monstrous! If you insist on saying that Gu Zi is actually a woman, she'd be a total 4i! No matter who comes in front of Gu Zi, they'll be completely overwhelmed!]
In a corner unnoticed by anyone, only I feel heartache for the old captain who rushed to his death for love!
I can only sigh at how passionately Shuangjiang loved and hated back then...
Lin Chaoying laughed out loud.
Is this a discussion group about murder cases, or a gathering place for drug addicts...?
