Chapter 327 Confession
Xiang Yingying: "I want to ask the woman who just left, does she come here often? What package did she book?"
Then she opened her cell phone and showed them a photo of Zhao Lei's wife.
After reading it, the receptionist said, "I'm sorry, it's company policy not to disclose guest information casually."
Xiang Yingying showed her police ID.
"Police, tell me everything you know about that woman, or I'll sue you for obstructing public service."
The receptionist said, "It turned out to be a female police officer. We thought it was someone else! It was a misunderstanding. This woman is indeed very strange. She is not a regular customer here. She just came a few days ago. She never comes here to play bowling."
Xiang Yingying: "Then what is she here for?"
Receptionist: "She's here to rent our VIP locker on a monthly basis."
Xiang Yingying: "Then open her locker and let me see."
Receptionist: "We can't make the decision on this... We need to ask the supervisor."
Xiang Yingying: "Do I need to apply for a search warrant?"
At this time, the bowling supervisor hurried over and said, "No, no, this is a trivial matter. I will open the locker and show it to you right away. We must not delay the police officer's investigation!"
He took Xiang Yingying to the locker, and then opened Zhao Lei's wife's locker in front of everyone.
"Officer, everything is inside. Take your time to look around." After saying that, the supervisor immediately hid aside.
Xiang Yingying was not vague either. She quickly turned out everything inside.
There were actually more than a dozen gold bars and a large amount of valuable foreign currencies inside.
Xiang Yingying called Xu Lin and said, "Captain Xu, we've found the evidence. Hurry over to the Gaomei Bowling Alley on Haibin Road. Also, call Captain Wu and tell him to stop following us and bring Zhao Lei's wife back to the police station for questioning!"
After a while, Xu Lin arrived at the bowling alley.
Xu Lin saw a pile of valuables on the ground and asked, "What's going on? Do you think this is a bank? Are you qualified to store such valuables?"
The supervisor had never seen anything like this before and thought he'd gotten into trouble. He was so scared that he stammered, "We don't know what happened. Normally, when customers come to store things with us, we can't check everything. She only wrote items like clothes on our list. Normally, we wouldn't dare open customers' lockers to check without permission. This customer must be crazy to store such valuables in our store. We really had no idea! Otherwise, we would have called the police if we hadn't suspected anything."
Xu Lin: "Let's forget about it this time. Xiang Yingying put on her gloves and put the things away one by one. Then we'll see what else she has to say."
After the two packed up their things and returned to the police station, they happened to run into Wu Sangui coming out of the interrogation room.
Xu Lin: "She still refuses to say anything?"
Wu Sangui: "Not only did he refuse to say anything, he actually cursed us like a shrew."
Xu Lin: "Look at what this is?"
Wu Sangui opened the evidence bag and found it was full of valuable treasures. His eyes widened immediately.
"Oh my god! Is all this that bitch's stuff in here?"
Xu Lin: "Yes, this time she has no way to deny it. You've worked hard, let me handle the interrogation next time!"
Wu Sangui smiled, patted Xu Lin on the shoulder and left.
Xu Lin slowly walked into the interrogation room and threw everything onto the stage.
"Tell me where you got all these things from!"
Zhao Lei's wife's eyes widened when she saw the things on the stage. She stammered, "I haven't seen these things. These are not my faults. You can't accuse others casually!"
Xu Lin: "Wrongly accuse you? Since you have selective amnesia, then I'll let you watch the video to help you recall it, okay?"
At this time, the TV in the interrogation room showed the scene of Zhao Lei's wife opening the locker in the storage room of the bowling alley this afternoon.
When Zhao Lei's wife saw the conclusive evidence, she knew that it was useless to quibble, so she simply lowered her head and stopped talking.
Seeing this, Xu Lin tried to comfort her, saying, "Do you think we would bring anyone here without evidence? Actually, this matter has nothing to do with you. If you tell us what you know, it might not only help your husband get revenge, but also allow you to leave here safely. Of course, you can choose not to say anything, but then we won't show any mercy to you."
Zhao Lei's wife was furious when she heard this: "What are you talking about? My husband has fought for the police force for so many years, and you transferred him to the evidence room to guard evidence for such a small matter, making him feel frustrated. Now that he's dead, you still want to harm me?"
Xu Lin: "His death was his own fault. But what about my husband? He's the other police officer who was at the scene with your husband. He's still lying in the hospital and I don't know when he'll wake up! How dare you say this to me?"
Zhao Lei's wife looked at Xu Lin and suddenly felt guilty. As they were both stranded in the world, she could understand this feeling best.
Zhao Lei's wife: "I'm sorry, I didn't know you also..."
Xu Lin: "You don't have to tell me this. I don't need sympathy. I just need the truth to solve the case. Just tell me what you know!"
Zhao Lei's wife: "Then can you make sure I'm safe?"
Xu Lin: "I can only promise you that I will do my best."
Zhao Lei's wife: "My husband was not that kind of person before. He used to be a good policeman who was determined to serve the people. I don't know why he became like this later!"
She picked up the paper cup and drank all the water in it.
"My husband was unhappy for a long time after being transferred to the evidence room. Only recently has he become wealthy and happy again. At first, I was surprised by his change. After repeated questioning, he told me that he had recently met a boss who really admired him. The luxury goods he wore and the gifts he gave me were all bought for him by that boss. Of course, I know there is no free lunch in this world and there must be something fishy going on. But when I saw Zhao Lei's confident demeanor and my own vanity got the better of me, I didn't say anything to him and never told anyone else about it."
Xu Lin: "Did he tell you who the boss was?"
Zhao Lei's wife: "He didn't tell me, and I didn't dare ask, but one time when I eavesdropped on him on the phone, he mentioned a man called Hai Ge. Every time he received a call from Hai Ge, he would sneak away to talk. Since they got together, it was like they were attracted to each other almost every day. When the phone came, Zhao Lei would definitely go to find him. I didn't expect that Zhao Lei would even be on guard against me, his wife, for him."
Xu Lin: "Brother Hai? Is that Xu Tuohai?"
Zhao Lei's wife: "Yes, yes, that's the name. It was this damn bitch who seduced my husband and led him into evil ways. It led to his tragic death in the end."
After she finished speaking, her tears as big as beans could not stop flowing down.
