Chapter 107 In-depth Investigation
When they walked in, the female staff member immediately stopped what she was doing and asked with a smile, "How can I help you two?"
Xu Lin showed her her police ID and said, "We need to talk to your boss."
The female employee didn't dare to neglect it. She knocked on the door next to her and asked tremblingly, "Boss, two policemen are here to see you."
"Please invite them both in." said the person inside.
Xu Lin thought to himself, "I've heard his voice before I've even seen him. Unlike a reckless man like Li Zhong, the one inside must be a smiling tiger."
As soon as they entered the room, Bai Fugui quickly stood up to greet them.
"Hello, police comrades. Nice to meet you."
Xu Lin thought to herself, "As expected."
"I wonder what brings you here this time?"
Yue Xiaofeng: "You should have heard about the case of the female corpse at the bottom of the lake in the golf resort villa area!"
Bai Fugui: "I've heard about it."
Xu Lin: "Then do you know that she is your old lover Chen Meizhu?"
"Chen Meizhu is dead," he said with a look of disbelief.
Yue Xiaofeng: "Yes, she is dead."
Bai Fugui: "She's dead, why are you coming to me instead of catching the murderer?"
Xu Lin: "I came to you to find out what happened. Someone told us that you had an improper relationship with the deceased. So, she's been missing for so long, aren't you worried at all?"
Bai Fugui: "Comrade police officer, you have misunderstood. She is just a waitress who occasionally comes here to clean up. There is no improper relationship between us. The person who said this must have ulterior motives. He just wants to frame me."
Yue Xiaofeng: "Everything you said is true"
Bai Fugui: "It's absolutely true, truer than pearls. The one who said that must be Li Zhong.
Xu Lin: "How can you say that?"
Bai Fugui: "That time he had his eye on a batch of rough stones, and I was kind enough to negotiate for him. But after cutting them all open, I discovered they were all low-quality scraps. He had poor taste and put the blame for that business mistake on me. From then on, he wanted to break off all ties with me, and he went around saying I was a traitor and seduced my second sister-in-law... He said every malicious thing you can imagine."
Xu Lin: "Then who do you think is most likely to have killed her?"
Bai Fugui: "I really don't know. I'm not familiar with her."
Yue Xiaofeng: "So what you mean is that Chen Meizhu is just a waitress here and has nothing to do with you. You two are not even friends."
Bai Fugui: "That's what I mean. We are all family people. There are some things we really can't say casually."
Xu Lin: "Then do you know that Li Zhong has been pursuing Chen Meizhu?"
Bai Fugui: "I've always known this, but I did try to persuade him to give up. After all, she's already someone else's wife and mother."
Xu Lin: "Okay, let's end our conversation here today! We will also investigate the situation you mentioned to verify its truth."
Bai Fugui: "Go ahead and investigate! What I said is true."
After returning to the police station, Xu Lin and Yue Xiaofeng were at a loss as to what to do when they saw that the case had reached a deadlock again.
It happened that Jun Lan brought Li Yu over to inquire about the progress of the case.
Li Yu: "What's the matter, police comrades? Have you caught the murderer?"
Xu Lin: "The murderer hasn't been caught yet, but the number of suspects is growing. Now they all have their own stories. It's like a Rashomon drama!"
Junlan: "Can you tell me some details? Meizhu and I are very good sisters. Maybe we know something that can help you solve the case!"
Yue Xiaofeng: "What do you think of the relationship between your boss Bai Fugui on the 30th floor and Meizhu? Do you know him? Have you heard Meizhu mention this person?"
Li Yu pushed up her glasses. "I've never heard her mention this guy, but I do know the guest on the 30th floor named Bai Fugui. He's the slovenliest of guests. The waiters always hate cleaning his place, saying it always stinks no matter how they clean. One time, a waiter forgot to knock and got yelled at by her. He's one of the most troublesome guests on her blacklist."
Xu Lin: "I really can't tell. He wasn't like what you said when he was facing us just now!"
Yue Xiaofeng: "This should be what they call having two faces in front of others and behind their backs."
Xu Lin: "How is Chen Mingli, who lives in your house, doing now?"
Junlan: "It's still the same. He seems to like me and my husband quite a bit. Although he doesn't resist, he still seems to be having trouble adapting to life in our family. I told him about Meizhu's situation. Sometimes he seems to understand, and sometimes he asks me when his mother will come to pick him up. I'm still having a headache and don't know how to educate him."
Xu Lin: "Take your time. After all, it takes a while for children to adapt to a new environment, especially one like him who hasn't had a happy life since childhood. You have to spend more time and attention on him. What I'm most worried about now is that his mental state will deviate. Do you understand me?"
Jun Lan nodded: "I understand."
Li Yu: "He's just a six-year-old kid. It's not as serious as you say. How can children have any worries? They are born optimists. After a while, he will naturally forget all the bad things. Come on, let's go see him now."
Jun Lan: "Foreman, please wait for me!"
Watching their backs as they walked away, Yue Xiaofeng smiled and said, "Captain Xu, look how energetic they are. If we were all like them, how much would our efficiency improve?"
Xu Lin raised her head and glanced out the door: "When we no longer have to handle cases, we can also be as energetic as them."
After Junlan and her husband returned home, Chen Mingli took out his favorite Ultraman and said, "Junlan, you are back!"
Junlan: "Yes, Mingli, have you been good today?"
Mingli: "I played Ultraman today because I read a book."
Jun Lan: "Just play with the toys I bought for you. Don't touch the model toys collected in your uncle's room, or he will kill me."
Mingli: "I don't want to play with those toys in his room."
Li Yu: "As expected, men still like to play with toys regardless of their age."
Mingli: "Mother Junlan, you brought your friends back. Who is this?"
Junlan: "She is also a good friend of your mother. We are both good Chinese colleagues working in the same company."
Mingli: "I don't like mom anymore. I like being with you guys."
Li Yu: "Let's go for a walk outside! I haven't been to such a beautiful place before! Jun Lan, please take us for a walk."
Junlan: "Mingli, bring your guide stick and let's go for a walk together!"
Li Yu: "Where's your precious daughter?"
Jun Lan: "Sent her to her grandmother's house for temporary care."
Li Yu: "It's only been a few days since the birth? You're really willing to give it up."
When she looked at Junlan's breasts, it was as if she had discovered a new world.
"Oh, you've had a second growth spurt! Is it because of my husband or the child?"
