Chapter 167: Finding Evidence
After walking around the park, they found a stone bench and sat down.
Jun Lan: "What are you and your wife angry about this time?"
Xu Lin: "It's all because of the skeleton case of your old classmate Mo Xiaoyi."
Jun Lan: "The case is closed, why are you still fighting over it?"
Xu Lin: "That's what they think, but I don't think so."
Jun Lan: "Ah? That sentence again. I don't know why, but I get scared when I hear you say that, because women's intuition is always accurate. The last time Zhong Siyi happened, I was still deeply impressed!"
Xu Lin: "Exactly. Why wouldn't those idiots believe us? I just told him a few more words about my opinion on the case, and he got mad at me! I'm still pregnant with his child, why can't he learn to be more considerate?"
Didn't you say they were going to show you the evidence and the video? How come you're just giving your opinions and suggestions on the case? You're avoiding the important points like this, and I have nothing to say.
Jun Lan: "I don't know much about the case and I can't say anything."
Xu Lin: "Actually, I was also suspicious of Ke Xiaodong, but ever since I saw the scars on his body and heard what he said to me at the time, I've started to doubt myself. Before I could even investigate thoroughly, he committed suicide out of fear of punishment. No, I suspect there was something else behind his death. It's even possible that he took that video under duress. It's a pity that I still can't see that video."
Jun Lan: "Then how can you verify your opinion?"
Xu Lin thought for a moment and said, "Why don't you accompany me to Ke Xiaodong's house?"
Jun Lan: "This...isn't it bad?"
Xu Lin took her hand and said, "You have also experienced times when your family did not understand and support you, right? Now you are the only one who is willing to believe me and go crazy with me. Let me ask you, are you a sister? Do you want to come with me?"
Jun Lan: "This...but you still have..."
Before Jun Lan could finish her words, Xu Lin pulled her up and walked out of the park. She hailed a taxi on the side of the road and drove towards the police station dormitory.
Jun Lan: "How come you, a pregnant woman, are so strong?"
Xu Lin: "Because I'm a police officer! I once single-handedly knocked down a man weighing over 180 pounds."
After arriving at their destination, they went to Ke Xiaodong's home and rang their doorbell.
But the doorbell rang for a long time but no one answered.
Junlan: "Is there no one inside?"
Xu Lin put her ear to the door and listened for a while before saying, "No, there's a sound inside."
This time, Xu Lin slammed the security door hard and shouted, "Police, open the door quickly, or I'm going to rush in."
A weak female voice came from inside: "My husband is really not a corrupt cop. He would never do such a heinous thing as betraying his brothers. I know nothing. I beg you not to embarrass us, an orphan and a widow!"
Xu Lin: "Mrs. Ke, you misunderstood. We're not here to cause you any trouble. I'm also a police officer, and your husband and I are acquaintances. I came here today simply to burn some incense for him and see him."
At this time, there were bursts of unlocking sounds coming from inside.
The door opened a crack, revealing only a dead eye.
"What you said is true. You are not here to scold us. You are just here to pay your respects to Xiaodong."
"It's absolutely true. Even pearls are not that real. Look at her." Jun Lan pointed at Xu Lin's belly and said.
When Xiao Meixuan saw that there were only two women, one of whom was pregnant, he relaxed his guard and opened the door to let them in.
Seeing the mess in Ke Xiaodong's house, Xu Lin knew that many people from both the black and white worlds must have come to cause trouble for them.
Xiao Meixuan: "Female officer, you are so thoughtful. Now everyone in the police force says that our Xiaodong is the shame of their team and a rat shit. All his best teammates have cut off all ties with him. Only you are so thoughtful and come to see him with a big belly. How many months have you been pregnant?"
Junlan: "She is more than five months old."
Xiao Meixuan: "Who are you? Do you know Xiaodong?"
Xu Lin: "She lives in the villa where Mo Xiaoyi dumped the body. She and Mo Xiaoyi are classmates and friends of mine. She heard that I was coming to see you, so she followed me."
Xiao Meixuan immediately became excited when she heard Mo Xiaoyi's name. She quickly grabbed Jun Lan's hand and said, "Miss, let me tell you this: my husband really didn't harm your classmate. He was murdered by someone."
Jun Lan: “This…”
Seeing Jun Lan's doubtful look, Xiao Meixuan put down his hands in disappointment: "You don't believe me, do you? I know you don't believe me, and it's not just you, no one believes him now."
Junlan: "I don't know what to say."
After Xu Lin respectfully lit three incense sticks for Ke Xiaodong, she took Xiao Meixuan's hand and said, "I believe in you, and I believe in Ke Xiaodong, otherwise I wouldn't be here today."
Xiao Meixuan shed tears as big as beans. "Officer, you don't have to comfort me. If he was really wronged, then why hasn't anyone come to redress his innocence yet? Why did a widow and my child have to suffer so much for him? Do you know? As soon as we go out, people point fingers at us behind our backs and look down on us. We can't even live anymore."
Xu Lin quickly comforted her, "Mrs. Ke, please believe that justice may be late, but it will never be absent. You still have children! Please stay strong."
Xiao Meixuan: "Maybe I will never wait for that day."
Junlan: "What do you mean by that?"
Xu Lin: "Did you see the luggage of all sizes on the ground? They are moving."
Xiao Meixuan nodded. "Female officer, you have good eyesight. It's a good thing you came early. My son and I will be moving to Shanghai to stay with relatives tonight."
Xu Lin: "The cost of living there is quite high. Your previous one million dollars and Ke Xiaodong's one million dollars in Swiss Bank were all confiscated. Do you have enough money on you?"
Xiao Meixuan: "There are still good people. Captain Liang, Xiaodong's former captain, was very sentimental. He knew that life would be very difficult without Xiaodong, the pillar of our family, so he gave me some money to help my mother and I start a new life elsewhere."
Xu Lin: "Is that Tony Leung?"
Xiao Meixuan: "It's him."
Jun Lan: "Then can I ask you a question? How much money did he give you and your son?"
Xiao Meixuan: "This... He told me not to tell anyone."
Xu Lin: "I understand. Can you tell me what strange things happened before Ke Xiaodong committed suicide?"
Xiao Meixuan: "I've already told Captain Liang everything, and he told me not to tell anyone else."
Xu Lin: "Don't worry about me. I'm here to help you, just like I helped Tony Leung. So if you have anything you want to say, anything you've said to Captain Liang, or even anything you don't dare to tell him, you can tell us. We want you to promise not to leak it to anyone else. You also want to see the day when your husband's injustice is vindicated, right?"
