Since he had already confessed, Lin Yanbai simply let himself go. For breakfast, he steamed an egg custard, fried a few pot cakes obtained from the system, and cooked a pot of white porridge. A simple breakfast was ready!
It happened that the factory was closed today, so after dinner, the two of them went to the police station together. They had to find out the mastermind behind the incident today.
Seeing the two people coming, a police officer turned around and rushed into the office. After a while, Captain Qian and Li Mingcheng came out.
When he came yesterday, Li Mingcheng was not at home. When he came back and heard that the two men wanted to harm his brother, he immediately lost his temper. Unfortunately, the two men were like dumb people. No matter how he asked, they just didn't say a word!
Thinking of this, Li Mingcheng felt a little ashamed.
Without asking, Gu Xingfan knew that he would not get anything out of it. If this matter was so easy to handle, he would have found out long ago!
"Can I say a few words to them?" Since he already knew their weaknesses from Lin Yanbai, Gu Xingfan was confident that he could find out the mastermind behind the scenes.
After getting Captain Qian's permission, Li Mingcheng brought the two to the interrogation room.
They hadn't seen each other for just one day, yet they looked incredibly embarrassed. Li Erniu didn't even raise his head when he saw Gu Xingfan come in. It was unclear what he was thinking. Liu Cheng twitched the corner of his mouth, glanced at Li Erniu, and said nothing.
Gu Xingfan took in their every move. He slowly walked to the table and sat down. In the silent interrogation room, the clattering of his shoes added a sense of inexplicable tension to the two men. Liu Cheng couldn't help but clench his fists...
"Li Erniu, from Dongtou Township, has a sick daughter and an elderly mother... After your daughter fell ill, your wife couldn't bear the high medical expenses and divorced you and remarried. Your daughter is seriously ill and is waiting for you to send her money to save her life..."
Just a few words made Li Erniu suddenly raise his dejected head, his eyes bloodshot. If it weren't for the handcuffs on his hands, Lin Yanbai had reason to believe that he would have pounced on her by now!
"...How do you know...what did you do to Xiao Ke?"
Gu Xingfan ignored him and turned to look at Liu Cheng, saying calmly, "You're also from Dongtou Township. You lost your biological mother when you were young and were abused by your stepmother. You're still unmarried. Li Erniu is your best friend and has taken good care of you since you were young. Even your job was introduced to you by Li Erniu..."
And Li Erniu's daughter Li Ke, you have watched her grow up since she was a child, in your heart, Li Ke can almost be said to be your daughter..."
Liu Cheng squeezed his hands and said nothing...
Gu Xingfan continued, "I think the person behind the scenes must have given you a huge benefit to make you go to jail or even lose your life to kill me. Let me guess... money? Or to contact the best hospital for Li Ke?
Don't be naive, I don't think you know why he wants you to get rid of me, right?"
Li Erniu licked his dry lips and said awkwardly, "What do you want to say?"
"That's a good question. I'm not afraid to tell you. The people behind the scenes want you to kill me simply because they covet my enormous wealth! Unfortunately, you don't know that I'm married. Even if I die, my money will belong to my wife and won't fall into their hands at all...
So, the money he promised you, and the medical treatment for your daughter, are all bullshit, because he can't do it at all..."
Hearing this news, Li Erniu seemed to have suffered a huge blow and shook his head in panic: "Impossible... Impossible... It's not true... She wouldn't lie to me..."
Liu Cheng, who was standing by, saw that his brother's defenses were about to collapse, and couldn't help but comfort him: "Brother Erniu, calm down, don't believe him, Xiaoke will be fine!"
At this time, Lin Yanbai on the side couldn't help it. These two brothers were pitiful, but also really stupid.
"Why wouldn't they lie to you? If you succeed and Gu Xingfan dies, what good will it be for you? It's lucky that you're not executed... By then, you'll be gone, and whether to save Li Ke will depend on their conscience, right?
He's already committed the crime of hiring someone to kill his nephew, so what else can't he do?"
After listening to Lin Yanbai's analysis, the two finally figured out the problem.
"...Brother Erniu, it seems that what she said makes sense!"
Nonsense, Li Er Niu's teeth are about to break. Now thinking about the expression on that woman's face when she approached them, it turns out that she had no intention of really helping them from the beginning...
"...What would happen if I told you?"
Seeing that Li Erniu finally gave in, the two looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief. This time they must teach them a severe lesson.
"You didn't succeed, and you are not the mastermind behind the incident. At most, it's an attempted murder. As long as we don't pursue it, the worst that can happen is that you will be imprisoned for a few months!" Gu Xingfan reassured the two of them.
"...Okay, I confess, I confess everything!" Thinking of Xiaoke lying in the hospital waiting for treatment, Li Erniu finally gave in. His mother was old and could not take care of Xiaoke who was asking for money everywhere.
The result was just as Gu Xingfan expected. The murderer behind the scenes was indeed Gu Changyue.
"Tsk~ I knew it. With Gu Changrong's cleverness, he would definitely let me, his good aunt, take the lead so that he can reap the benefits. This is his usual style..." As soon as he left the interrogation room, Gu Xingfan couldn't help but complain.
Everything became easier once we knew who was behind the incident. Captain Qian immediately ordered people to prepare for the arrest.
When Gu Changyue was arrested, she was arguing with her neighbor over a trivial matter. In full view of the public, several police officers in uniform handcuffed her...
If you have done nothing wrong, you don't have to worry about ghosts knocking on your door. When Gu Changyue saw that it was the police, he felt guilty and cold sweat broke out on his forehead. Is this... the plan didn't work out?
"Comrade Gu Changyue, someone has reported you for plotting to murder your nephew. Come with us..."
The cold sweat on her forehead condensed into beads of sweat and dripped down. Feeling the strange looks from her neighbors, she clenched her teeth and said, "Comrade police officer, what are you talking about? I don't understand!"
"It doesn't matter if you don't understand, just come with us!"
Seeing that she couldn't avoid this, Gu Changyue gritted her teeth and followed. Just go, anyway... they had no evidence, and she would be dead by then!
When they arrived at the police station, Gu Changyue insisted that she had never met Liu Cheng and the other man, and that they were slandering her.
Without evidence, the police couldn't convict her. Seeing this woman's expression of "you have no evidence, what can you do to me", Captain Qian felt a little itchy...
As Gu Changyue said, with only a confession and no evidence, it is really difficult to convict her...
Just when things were at a stalemate, Lin Yanbai walked in...
