Fang Zhenyue, Jiayi and Sanfu divided the team into three groups. Two groups went to the two accommodations of the Medusa nightclub employees, and the other group went back to the police station to follow up on the reports from the Forensic Department and the Medical Examiner's Department. Jiayi,
Liang Shule and George had just walked out of the elevator when they heard the stereo playing Aaron Kwok's song at full volume:
"I can't stop loving you. I can love you every day, every month, every year, and forever. So we love love love tonight..."
Because the stereo was turned up too high, George knocked on the door for a long time, his hands turned red, and someone finally opened the door.
"What's the matter?" The poor guy who opened the door was holding a cigarette in his mouth, with one hand on the door frame, looking very unhappy.
"The police are investigating the case, so cooperate and answer a few questions." George took a step back and frowned.
The cigarette-holding idiot looked at George and the police officers standing behind him, then turned around and shouted
to the inside of the house: "Come on, keep your voice down!" The volume of the stereo was turned down, and the idiot said to the inside of the house: "The police are checking the room, everyone, put on your clothes, and put your things back into your pants."
While laughing frivolously, he opened the door and invited the police in.
"What's the matter, sir? Which one of us are you looking for?" The cigarette-holding idiot asked as he walked into the house.
They lived in a public housing provided by the Medusa nightclub, with several people living in one room, and people were sleeping on the sofas upstairs and downstairs. No one knew who had committed a crime and caused the police to come to the door.
"Please come out, Redhead." George walked into the room first, looked around and saw that there was no danger, then made way for Jiayi and Liang Shule who followed behind to enter.
As soon as George finished speaking, someone in the back room shouted loudly:
"Which sir is looking for me, Redhead Hui? We are here to play in Medusa, we are all first-class citizens~ What do you need to ask - Hey? Madam Yi?"
Redhead walked out of the room and stretched his arm to lean on the door frame. He was still perfunctory in the first half of the sentence, but suddenly saw Yi Jiayi standing in the dirty and broken room. His eyes lit up instantly, and his tone changed 180 degrees. He smiled and greeted her:
"What brings the famous guy to our den? What does Madam Yi want to ask? Oh, it's too messy here, what are you all just looking at? Clean it up!"
The one in front of her is a female superhero who killed the robber with one shot and dared to fire a gun in front of two gang leaders. Now everyone knows that Madam Yi is the most powerful.
Red Hair turned around and ordered his men around. After a while, they cleaned up the sofa and tea table in the living room. Although it was still a little dirty, it was much cleaner.
"Please sit down." After asking Yi, Jiayi and the other two to sit down, Red Hair turned around and told his men: "Go make some tea."
"Don't worry, we just ask a few questions." Jiayi saw that they were all tired, so she hurriedly told Red Hair not to bother anymore.
"Okay, Madam, ask." Red Hair smiled and sat on the sofa, instinctively stepping one leg on the sofa. Looking at Yi Jiayi who was sitting upright, he silently put his leg down.
The questioning was unexpectedly smooth. Red Hair recognized the deceased in the photo at a glance. He was deeply impressed by the tattoo on the deceased's forearm, a black rose, which was quite fashionable.
As for the woman who later drank, danced and left with the "Black Rose", Red Hair knew who it was even more.
The murderer was not a female guest who came to Medusa casually, nor was she a barmaid of Medusa. She came to the nightclub as a hostess through a friend's introduction -
this kind of place is mainly to make money from male customers.
But if you want male customers to come often, you must have beautiful girls. It is not enough to have girls singing and drinking in nightclubs. There must be many high-quality female customers to attract those male customers who love pretty girls.
But there are not so many high-quality female customers coming to nightclubs to sing and dance every day, so of course they have to spend money to hire some girls to make extra money. They don’t need to really accompany drinking or do anything else. They just sit here for an hour and play for a while, and they can get a red envelope.
The murderer was introduced by a friend to make extra money here. Her
name is Bai Jufeng, 22 years old. I heard that she was going to Japan to make money. She needed money to live there, so she took some jobs to make quick money.
Without Jiayi saying anything, Hongmao had already picked up the landline and helped Yi Jiayi call the pretty girl who introduced the murderer to Medusa Nightclub. In no time, he got the murderer's phone number and address on the pretext of "wanting to pursue her".
Handsomely handing the note with the phone number and address to Yi Jiayi, Hongmao said with a smile: "Madam, do you think I have a chance to be your 'detective assistant'? Aren't there many movies that filmed like that, with the great detective having a romantic partner by his side?"
"Be more respectful." George reached out from the side, snatched the note, and warned with a glare.
Jiayi didn't care much. She smiled and stood up, "Thank you."
Then she took the business card handed over by Hongmao and put it in her pocket before leaving.
Brother Yue has many informants, and she has also met them. Only by knowing all kinds of people in society can one understand gossip and news from all walks of life.
Being a police officer means listening to all directions and keeping an eye on all directions.
Jiayi led the team out and just closed the door when she heard a burst of ghost howling in the room:
"Ahhh~The sofa that Madam Yi sat on!"
"Did you see it? Madam Yi accepted my business card! And put it properly in her pocket! Hahaha..."
"Wow! Madam is so hot, so many times prettier than in the newspapers!"
"She is the most beautiful in Hong Kong!"
"She is the most beautiful in Asia~"
"It's a pity she didn't drink the tea I made for her..."
"Keep it for yourself, hahaha, she accepted my business card, maybe she will really call me later~haha..."
The three people waiting for the elevator outside the door: "..."
Jiayi's face flushed a little uncomfortably, and she touched her ears as if she was about to smile.
The elevator hadn't arrived yet, and it was creaking slowly as it went up. George was getting impatient waiting, and finally couldn't help it. He turned around and hammered on the door of the bad guys' room, shouting:
"Keep your voice down, don't disturb others."
"Got it, sir——!" A loud response came from the room immediately.
George frowned helplessly, and Jiayi couldn't help but raise the corners of her lips when she saw him like this.
...
When the three of them walked out of the building, the drizzle suddenly became heavier.
After looking up at the sky for a while in the building, Jiayi decided to catch the murderer in the rain.
The elevator behind her suddenly dinged, and Red Hair came out with two broken umbrellas.
"Madam, I searched for a long time, and these are the only two umbrellas I found. Don't be disgusted, take them and use them."
Jiayi took a look at the two umbrellas that Red Hair handed over, pursed her lips and said, "We took all the umbrellas away, what are you going to do?"
Red Hair didn't seem to expect that she would care about them, and her unruly black face actually showed an embarrassed expression, "Handsome guys never use umbrellas! People like us have to be ruthless, madam, and use umbrellas so that others won't be afraid."
"Do you have to wear sunglasses indoors in the dark?" Jiayi took the umbrella readily.
"Hahaha, that's right." Red Hair was amused, and he touched the back of his head and smiled, revealing two rows of white teeth.
"We will leave them at the Yau Ma Tei Police Station after use. Remember to come and get them." Jiayi handed an umbrella to Liang Shule, and turned to give Hongmao a final reminder.
"Got it, madam." Hongmao waved to Yi Jiayi, thinking he was very handsome, and did not leave. He just stood there and watched the three of them.
Liang Shule held up an umbrella and covered himself and George under it. Jiayi held up the smaller umbrella and took the lead in walking into the heavy rain.
Hongmao looked at the backs of the three police officers who rushed into the rain curtain. The wind blew the rain diagonally, but the three of them still stood straight.
I don't know if the police walked with their chests and heads held high, or if they deliberately put on a pine-like and bell-like posture in front of these losers. In short... it's pretty handsome.
Hongmao didn't turn back until the figures of the three people merged into the rain curtain and could no longer be distinguished.
After walking a few steps, he couldn't help but look back. Suddenly, he felt a yearning, which made his heart beat wildly.
...
...
When he got into the car, he closed his umbrella too quickly, and there was still a layer of rain on his face.
Jiayi wiped her face and put all her half-wet hair back. Then she took out her mobile phone and called Fang Zhenyue:
"Brother Yue, we found the address of the suspect."
After relaying the address and the appearance of the suspect mentioned by Hongmao to Fang Zhenyue, Yi Jiayi stepped on the accelerator and drove out of the garage.
Ten minutes later, Fang Zhenyue called back and said that he had arrived in the community garage, waiting for her to go upstairs.
Jiayi got out of the car, turned around with her umbrella, and saw Brother Yue's big jeep at a glance.
Seeing that he didn't have an umbrella in his hand and was about to open the car door and walk into the heavy rain, she hurried over to hold the umbrella for him.
Fang Zhenyue got out of the car, and after he straightened his body, she was about to raise her arm to hold the umbrella.
With the umbrella cover shielding her, the inside and outside of the umbrella seemed to be separated into two worlds. He lowered his eyes to look at her, raindrops were flying around, wetting her eyelashes, and the mist enveloped her face, covering her sweat hair with a layer of water vapor, which was wet and hazy, with a different kind of beauty.
He suddenly took the umbrella, and then not only did he not hold the umbrella high, but he lowered the umbrella cover, using this layer of cover to lower his head and quickly approached him, and his lips gently and softly kissed her smooth forehead.
Jiayi looked up in shock, her nose brushing his chin.
Fang Zhenyue turned his eyes away from her too bright eyes, quickly stood up, raised his head, raised his umbrella, and covered her against the wind and rain.
Liu Jiaming and Gary jumped out of the big jeep behind him. The two held up the blanket that Fang Zhenyue had placed on the car to protect them from the rain. Through the heavy rain and the rising mist, they squinted and asked with wrinkled faces: "Are we going?"
"Let's go!" Fang Zhenyue responded, and then took Jiayi forward in big strides. He looked so awe-inspiring, as if it wasn't him who had the sudden impulse to steal a kiss just now.
The six of them strode along the way, breaking through the rain and mist.
Walking into the building where the suspect Bai Jufeng lived, Gary and Liu Jiaming waited downstairs, one to find the watchman to record the statement and inquire about Bai Jufeng. The
other was to guard the door to prevent Bai Jufeng from escaping.
The other four took the elevator and went straight to the third floor where Bai Jufeng lived.
It was Yi Jiayi who knocked on the door. Women are less likely to scare the frightened killer.
Bai Jufeng answered from inside the door, but did not even open the inner door.
But as long as they were sure that she was at home, Jiayi turned around and saw Fang Zhenyue calling her, and immediately said: "We are the police from the serious crime team. We have some questions for Miss Bai. Can you please open the door and cooperate?"
After hearing Jiayi introduce herself, Bai Jufeng stopped talking immediately.
Jiayi then asked, "Ms. Bai, on Christmas Eve, you danced with a man with a black rose tattooed on his arm at Medusa Nightclub. Do you still remember it?"
The inside of the door was still very quiet.
Jiayi said again, "You drank a lot of wine and left the nightclub together. After that, you followed him to his house and made out with him-"
"No! No! He took advantage of my drunkenness and lied to me that he would take me home, but he took me to his house. Then he tried to rape me. I didn't want to make out with him-" Suddenly, an excited female voice came from inside the door. At the end of the voice, she was crying.
Jiayi turned her head to look at Fang Zhenyue, and at the same time said to the inside of the door, "Can you please open the door?"
Fang Zhenyue nodded at her and took out a paper clip from his pocket-with just Bai Jufeng's words, the identity of the suspect was basically confirmed, and the search warrant would definitely be approved. If Bai Jufeng doesn't open the door now, then she will have to resort to extraordinary measures.
"I didn't mean to do that... wuwuwu... I just wanted to stop him, I didn't want to kill anyone... wuwuwu..." The crying inside the door became louder. "
Miss Bai, if you have your own reasons, such as accidentally killing someone in self-defense, the law will give you justice, don't be afraid. Open the door and turn yourself in, cooperate with the police, and it will also help you defend yourself in court." Jiayi whispered through the door again.
Ten seconds later, just as Fang Zhenyue's paper clip was about to be inserted into the outer iron frame door, the inner door was opened with a click.
A crying woman's face with snot and tears appeared from behind the iron frame. She stared at Yi Jiayi and the others, and only after Yi Jiayi showed her her ID did she slowly open the outer iron frame door.
A few minutes later, Bai Jufeng was taken to Fang Zhenyue's jeep, with Gary and Liu Jiaming sitting on her left and right. The
"airplane jeep" and the "happy prince" drove out of the garage one after another and returned to the police station.
50 minutes later, Bai Jufeng confessed to the fact that she had killed someone in the interrogation room of the police station, but she also immediately asked for legal assistance, advocating the defense direction of justifiable defense or excessive defense.
Fang Zhenyue walked out of the interrogation room and looked at Yi Jiayi who was standing in front of the one-way window outside the interrogation room. He said softly,
"Bai Jufeng bought a ticket to Japan, the flight is tonight."
Jiayi wiped her half-dried hair, touched her forehead kissed by Yue Ge, and smiled:
"Fortunately we caught him in time."
