Chapter 9 The power of your bedmate is too strong.



Upon hearing this, Lu Zhiwei's expression became particularly complicated.

He never seemed to have this awareness of treating her as his spouse before, but he suddenly remembered it after the incident.

Could it be that he's getting his comeuppance for causing a scene at the Lu family banquet tonight?

After hanging up the phone, Lu Zhiwei found a seasonal dress in her closet, put it on, and headed to the police station.

Lu Zhiwei entered the interrogation room.

Shen Jinmo was still wearing the dark suit he wore to the banquet. He sat with his legs crossed on the chair, tapping the table with his fingers. His cold and handsome features seemed to blend into the darkness.

Looking up at Lu Zhiwei, Shen Jinmo's sinister gaze was like a sharp knife, full of hostility and resentment: "You really have the nerve to come here?"

Lu Zhiwei couldn't understand how his malice towards her had deepened in just two hours.

"Didn't you beg me to come?" Lu Zhiwei retorted irritably.

Since filing for divorce, the couple has been unable to communicate calmly and peacefully.

The team leader in charge of the interrogation, Captain Liu, and Lu Zhiwei briefly explained the situation.

Shen Jinmo was taken to the police station for interrogation because of Qin Hai's suicide case a few days ago.

The police arrested the last person Qin Hai saw based on the suspect's appearance drawn by her.

That person insisted that he was acting on the orders of Shen Jinmo.

In short.

Shen Jinmo's disheveled state tonight was partly due to Lu Zhiwei.

“Miss Lu, please sit down. We need to ask you some basic information, is that alright?” Liu Changqing’s attitude towards Lu Zhiwei was extremely gentle.

After all, this Miss Lu is a highly respected figure in the entire police station, and she will be indispensable in helping with future cases.

“Okay, please go ahead.” Lu Zhiwei sat down next to Shen Jinmo.

Liu Changqing personally conducted the questioning, with a police officer taking a statement by his side.

"At 7:30 p.m. on the 16th, Mr. Shen said that he had been with you the whole time and had not gone out. Is this true?" Liu Changqing asked seriously.

"Yes." Lu Zhiwei glanced at Shen Jingmo and answered truthfully.

"What was he doing at the time?" Captain Liu asked immediately.

"He..." When asked this question, Lu Zhiwei fell silent, unable to bring herself to speak.

Shen Jingmo, who had been silent to the side, parted his thin lips slightly and suddenly spoke up, interjecting, "She's too embarrassed to say it, so I'll say it. At that time, I was... sleeping with her."

Upon hearing this, Liu Changqing and the police officer taking his statement looked slightly embarrassed.

But their professional ethics require them to remain calm and composed; they are all people who have seen many storms.

"Ms. Lu, is what he said true?"

Lu Zhiwei bit her lip and glared coldly at Shen Jinmo.

He wasn't incapable of getting away unscathed from the police station; calling the police over to continue gathering evidence was simply an attempt to humiliate her.

"Yes." Lu Zhiwei nodded.

That was their last meeting before their divorce.

Lu Zhiwei indeed has a deep memory of that day.

Where is it located?

"The Shen family villa." Lu Zhiwei's shyness faded, and her answer became more natural.

If he doesn't want a fig leaf, why should she hide it and stammer?

"Captain Liu, I can be more specific. It's in front of the floor-to-ceiling window." Shen Jinmo spoke coldly, his deep profile appearing even more terrifying in the darkness.

Lu Zhiwei clenched her fists tightly, wishing she could sew up Shen Jinmo's mouth with a needle right then and there.

"Do you need to know more about the position we were in back then?" Shen Jinmo sneered.

His eyes, filled with hostility, stared intently at Lu Zhiwei.

Seeing Lu Zhiwei's embarrassed and awkward expression, Liu Changqing thought to himself that the two of them must be a fake couple with no real feelings for each other.

It's also impossible that they would collude to give the same testimony to deceive the police.

"Alright, that concludes today's interrogation. I believe that to clear Mr. Chen's name, we need you to draw another picture for us." Liu Changqing handed Lu Zhiwei a screenshot from a surveillance video on his tablet.

The picture shows a tall, imposing figure in a suit, standing from behind.

Standing opposite her was the person she had drawn Qin Hai's last encounter after he jumped off the building.

The two people stood together, seemingly having a secret conversation.

The man's face was not clearly visible from behind; only a faint, blurry outline was reflected in the mirror behind him.

The time shown on the surveillance footage was exactly 7:30.

To prove that the person in the surveillance footage is not Shen Jinmo, we need two things: first, an alibi for Shen Jinmo at the time, and second, we need to confirm the face of the person in the footage.

"Give me paper and pencils," Lu Zhiwei readily agreed.

The search for the truth was the direct reason that attracted her to choose this job.

Liu Changqing immediately had someone bring him a pen and paper.

Shen Jinmo leaned back lazily in his chair, his tall figure exuding disdain, and said in a cold tone, "Don't let her draw it. She's prejudiced against me, and the portrait she draws will only be of me."

"Shut up!" Lu Zhiwei snapped at him, not allowing anyone to question her attitude toward the truth or her professionalism.

Shen Jinmo stared into her shimmering eyes, his heart feeling as if it had been scratched by a cat.

She had never lost her temper with him before, always appearing gentle and obedient. Her sudden outburst of anger was now more lively and endearing than before.

Lu Zhiwei quickly sketched on the drawing paper, based on the afterimages in the surveillance photos, the precise analysis of the composition of the figures, and the calculation of the head-to-body ratio.

Lu Zhiwei quickly drew a tall and handsome man on the paper.

Liu Changqing and Shen Jinmo immediately leaned over to look at the person in the painting.

After watching it.

Liu Changqing glanced at Shen Jinmo with sympathy, thinking to himself: "President Shen, if your wife wants you dead at midnight, who dares to keep you alive until dawn?"
