Looking at the familiar face in front of him, Zhou Liwan said politely and calmly, "Please take a seat, officers. What do you want to talk to me about?"
Jiang Shiyue smiled, didn't say anything, and just walked around the office slowly.
When seeing something new, he will stop, touch it, and play with it.
The man who came with him was a little embarrassed by Jiang Shiyue's behavior and quickly took over the topic: "It's like this. A dead body was found in the woods in the wealthy area of Yaohe early this morning. According to our current investigation, the suspect is Xu Zimu, the young master of the Xu family."
Before the other party could finish his words, he was interrupted by Zhou Liwan. She widened her eyes and shouted in disbelief: "Are you mistaken? Zimu would never do such a thing!"
After Jiang Shiyue walked around, he sat down on the sofa unrestrainedly, picked up the tea that the front desk had just brought him, and took a big sip.
He sneered contemptuously: "Zi Mu, you are calling me so affectionately, Miss Zhou, you won't forget that you are engaged to the eldest young master of the Chen family, right?"
Zhou Liwan frowned and said coldly: "What does this have to do with why you came to see me! Why do you suspect him now, and why do you come to see me?"
"Soon after the deceased entered the blind spot of the surveillance yesterday, Xu Zimu also appeared there, and it took a long time before he reappeared in the next section of the video surveillance. Before the body was found early this morning, no other person appeared there."
The police officer in charge of recording was afraid that his captain might say something provocative to the witness, so he quickly made things clear.
Zhou Liwan frowned and said in a deep voice, "This video doesn't prove anything, does it? And he got drunk at my house yesterday, maybe he fainted somewhere on the way?"
"So aren't we here to ask you about what happened that night?" The man said lazily, "You tell us everything from the moment he arrived at your house. As for whether he is the murderer, we will make the judgment based on your testimony."
Zhou Liwan tried his best to calm himself down quickly. After taking a few deep breaths, he began to recall all the details of last night with difficulty.
The police officer in charge of recording was recording very seriously the whole time, afraid of missing any word, and he would look up at Zhou Liwan from time to time.
"So he was very happy last night, and there was nothing unusual about him the whole time, right?"
Zhou Liwan nodded quickly: "How could a passionate boy who wanted to become a soldier so much and was about to fulfill his dream kill people for no reason? This doesn't make sense!"
Jiang Shiyue interrupted coldly: "The logic of a murderer is different from that of a normal person."
Zhou Liwan stood up angrily and said to Jiang Shiyue in dissatisfaction: "He is still just a suspect now. What makes you say that? As a policeman, don't you know that when the judge makes the final judgment, he can't be and will not be the murderer you are talking about!"
Wei Fan hurriedly tried to smooth things over, feeling puzzled: "No, no! Ma'am, you misunderstood. Our captain definitely didn't mean that."
[Captain, what's wrong with you? I feel like I've eaten dynamite today. Why do I feel like I've eaten gunpowder as soon as I arrive at this company?]
Zhou Liwan stared at Jiang Shiyue closely: "Officer Jiang, do you have any opinion about me?"
Ever since that chance encounter at the police station, she could feel that this man always seemed to be resentful towards her.
She wondered if she had offended him in some way, but she had no memory of this person at all.
Jiang Shiyue pursed his lips and said nothing. After a while, he stood up and said with a sullen face: "That's all for now. Thank you for your cooperation."
After saying this, he left without looking back. Wei Fan, who was standing by, hurriedly packed up his transcript and gave Zhou Liwan an apologetic smile: "Then Chairman Zhou, we will leave first. Thank you for your cooperation."
After saying that, he chased after Jiang Shiyue's disappearing back.
After Zhou Liwan watched them leave, he felt as if all his strength had been drained away and he collapsed on the sofa.
How could this happen?
He is about to fulfill his dream, isn't he?
No, I have to go and take a look myself. Thinking of this, Zhou Liwan quickly packed up and asked someone to take her back to Jiang's house.
Along the way, the shadows of the trees on the roadside kept passing across her face, but her heavy expression did not show the slightest fluctuation.
Soon the car arrived at the familiar mountain road, and Zhou Liwan nervously stared at everything passing by through the car window.
Slowly, I finally saw the place where the police officer said the body was found.
There was a clear yellow cordon hanging there. Although it was already the morning, there were still many people in police uniforms working back and forth here.
"Lao Wang, stop the car!"
The driver looked embarrassed. He tried hard to dissuade Zhou Liwan from her thoughts: "Miss, there are police officers here, and that just happened. If you stop the car now, Mr. Jiang will definitely be worried if he knows."
Zhou Liwan's eyes were dark, and he said sternly: "Stop talking so much nonsense, I told you to stop the car immediately!"
Lao Wang sighed helplessly and stopped a few hundred meters away from the crime scene.
As soon as he opened the car door, Zhou Liwan ran towards that direction, but was quickly stopped by the uncle in the hat at the scene.
"Miss! Miss! I'm sorry, there's a murder here and you can't go in."
Zhou Liwan said, "I'm not going in because I think I know this place better. If you have any questions, you can ask me for help."
The police car saw that Zhou Liwan was well-dressed and had bodyguards and a driver, so she should be a rich girl living nearby. Besides, since she didn't really try to break in, they didn't try to stop her.
"Okay, thank you for your assistance. But I would like to remind you again that this is a crime scene and you are not allowed to take photos or videos."
Zhou Liwan nodded and said, "I understand. Don't worry, I won't."
After saying that, several policemen continued to investigate.
Zhou Liwan began to observe carefully. In the dense forest not far away, there was a group of technicians in protective clothing gathered. That should be where the body was found.
Since Jiang Shiyue and the others came looking for me just now and locked onto Xu Zimu so quickly, Zhou Liwan thought the deceased must have died in a tragic way.
The possibility of suicide is absolutely ruled out.
In addition, the person involved in the case is the prince of the Xu family, so this matter is not small.
The woods are not deep, and if someone passes by, they will be easily discovered. Isn't the murderer afraid at all?
Moreover, the surveillance blind spots that Jiang Shiyue mentioned are also problematic. Except in the woods, there are no surveillance blind spots in the entire Yaohe.
Zhou Liwan raised her head and stared at the camera not far away. Sure enough, she saw signs that it had been turned.
The camera is exposed to wind and sun every day, so it is inevitable that there will be dust on it. The other cameras around it basically have a thin layer of dust, but only that one is exceptionally clean.
