Chapter 212 Kobayashi Arrested
"Okay." After receiving the order, the man immediately went to carry it out.
Suhe followed them out.
At that moment, she kept thinking that if someone really did secretly poison Sanlin's cup, it must be someone who could enter his room.
And it is someone who can make him completely unguarded.
Because he is always very careful when he is out and about, he rarely drinks water or beverages from unknown sources.
For him to drink it without any suspicion, it must be something he knows and trusts.
Thinking of this, Su He's heart skipped a beat.
A figure suddenly flashed into her mind.
She immediately denied it.
impossible.
There was no conflict of interest between them, and they didn't even argue.
How could that be?
This is completely illogical and has no purpose whatsoever.
After the fingerprint extraction was completed, Xiaolin suddenly disappeared.
The police immediately increased their suspicion of him.
Soon after, the fingerprint comparison results came back, confirming that the fingerprint belonged to Huang Sanlin's assistant, Xiaolin.
Chen Shu immediately issued an arrest warrant and launched a city-wide search.
When Chen Shu arrived at his house with his men, Xiao Lin was sitting there peacefully, as if he had been waiting for them.
Chen Shuli immediately ordered his men to handcuff him and take him back to the police station.
Inside the interrogation room.
Chen Shu threw the fingerprint comparison report directly in front of him and said sternly, "Do you have anything to explain?"
As he spoke, he also casually tossed over a report on his recent financial situation.
Kobayashi looked at the things in front of him, his face full of pain.
He covered his face and said, "I know I was wrong now."
"Tell me," Chen Shu said coldly.
The person opposite him paused for a while before looking up at Chen Shu and said, "I did put the drugs in the cup."
“I also found that actress. My initial idea was to use the thrill of infidelity to make it look like an accidental death.”
"Unfortunately... it failed."
"Where do the drugs come from?" Chen Shuxian asked this important question.
Kobayashi knew that crimes involving drugs were serious, "and it was provided by that mysterious person."
"Through what means?"
"I don't know the specifics, but it was delivered to my doorstep."
Chen Shu listened and instructed the person next to him to take detailed notes.
"Why?" Chen Shu asked again. "As far as I know, Huang Sanlin has treated you well, and you've known each other for many years."
Why did you try to harm him?
"Money," Xiaolin said truthfully, "For money."
At this point, the man's face was filled with guilt and embarrassment.
“I owe more than two million yuan. If I can’t pay it back within a month, I’ll die.”
"I have nowhere else to turn."
"Does being desperate justify killing someone?" Chen Shu said with a stern face.
Xiaolin hung his head in silence, still looking guilty.
"How much do you know about that mysterious person?" Chen Shu asked again.
He had just checked his financial situation; he had been frequently seen in Macau casinos in the past few months, spending hundreds of thousands of dollars in a single night.
It's true that owing more than two million is relatively small now.
“I don’t know about that, but I do know that the person who contacted me is in Thailand.”
"Thailand?" Chen Shu thought he had misheard.
"Yes." Xiaolin tried to calm herself down and continue speaking as she had prepared beforehand, "I checked the other party's address before. That person asked me to kill Huang Sanlin and then frame Bian Xi."
"Although I don't know why I did it."
"However, I didn't ask any more questions, because if the other party is unwilling to show themselves, it's because they definitely don't want to reveal their identity."
"Anyway, after everything is over, he promised me five million dollars."
Xiaolin's eyes lit up when money was mentioned.
Chen Shu chuckled upon hearing this, "Five million US dollars, that's no small sum."
"Who is Bian Xi?" Chen Shu asked again after finishing his sentence.
Their investigation did not uncover any information about this person.
Xiao Lin paused for a moment, then said, "He's Huang Sanlin's former and future son-in-law. He was also at the police station earlier."
Chen Shu frowned slightly as he listened. Former and future son-in-law... this relationship is quite complicated.
He sorted it out in his mind for a moment, then asked, "Does that mean you're not married?"
"Yes," Xiaolin explained to him, "We were already engaged at the time, but for some reason, the engagement was suddenly called off."
"I heard it's related to a man. But I'm not sure if it's the person behind this who contacted me."
Chen Shu listened, then glanced at the person taking notes beside him. "You can ask Ms. Su about the reasons for annulling the marriage later."
The policewoman next to him immediately responded, "Okay."
Then Chen Shu turned his gaze back to the person in front of him, stared at him, and asked another question.
"But from what you're saying, it seems you didn't do what he asked, did you?"
"Yes." Kobayashi understood what he meant, of course.
At the scene of Huang Sanlin's death, no trace of Bian Xi was found at all.
If he were to frame someone as instructed by the mastermind, he would definitely leave behind some clues so that the police could discover them.
"I was scared at the time. It was my first time doing something like this, and I was targeting someone I knew. So I got nervous and forgot about the important things."
Chen Shu's curiosity was piqued. "So, what's your plan?"
Xiao Lin paused for a moment, looked up at him, and then said, "Bian Xi and I are fairly familiar with each other; we've met before."
"So when I found out he was back a couple of days ago, I made up an excuse to ask him out for dinner. I secretly took the cup he had used with me."
"I was scared and in my haste I forgot to bring it in, so I had to use the cups in the room."
"I was thinking of wiping off the fingerprints after I finished using it, but the situation was completely out of my control. Brother Huang didn't finish it in one go; he still had it in front of him, so I had no reason to take it away."
Chen Shu couldn't help but laugh upon hearing this.
He's a very meticulous person, but he just didn't use his skills in the right way.
"You'll find out what happened next," Kobayashi said, then lowered his head again, his eyes filled with remorse.
“I wanted to run away, but when I got home, I saw the watch that Brother Huang had given me…”
Xiaolin cried as she spoke, "I regret it, and I am willing to accept the punishment."
Chen Shu looked at him, and although he had many doubts, he still asked him again to confirm, "Is everything you said true?"
Kobayashi was taken aback, then looked up at him and nodded.
Chen Shu then had someone take him away, while he stayed inside to review the transcript again.
In the lounge outside, Suhe and Momo had already received news of Xiaolin's arrest.
Even though she had suspected it before, after it was actually confirmed, she was filled with doubt and pain.
Why?
Why would Kobayashi do something so heartless to Mirin?
She really couldn't believe it.
Even if they weren't particularly good to him, at least they were true to their conscience.
At this moment, a policewoman walked over, breaking the previously peaceful situation. "Ms. Su, I have some questions I need to verify with you."
Su He immediately stood up, and Momo followed suit, "Okay."
After saying that, she looked at her daughter next to her. Momo knew what her mother meant, so she obediently sat down again.
The policewoman glanced at Momo, then spoke to Su He, "She's coming this time too."
Su He and Momo were both stunned and looked at each other.
