Chapter 186



Inside the bureau.

Lin Yang was locked in the interrogation room, a small room where only Captain Liu and a woman taking notes were scribbling on paper.

A bright desk lamp shone on Lin Yang's face, making her complexion appear excessively pale.

"Lin Yang, did you see Wen Yuli during your time on the plateau?" This was the first question Captain Liu asked her.

"I have seen him," Lin Yang answered truthfully.

"Okay, then have you ever touched his nitroglycerin pills?" Captain Liu circled the point Ding Zhong had mentioned in his notebook and asked Lin Yang.

"I touched it."

"So, did you, as Ding Zhong saw, pour out all of Wen Yuli's nitroglycerin pills?" Captain Liu stared into Lin Yang's eyes, not intending to miss any subtle oddities in her expression.

"No, there were only 6 pills left in the bottle at the time. I gave him the pills and reminded him to buy another bottle."

The woman who was scribbling glanced at the lie detector strapped to Lin Yang's hand.

The above clearly shows that the heartbeat is normal and there is no lie.

As for Captain Liu, he stared at Lin Yang's eyes for a long time, but he didn't see the slightest unnaturalness in her eyes when she said those words.

"So, as Ding Zhong said, when Wen Yuli first joined the film crew, did you not only stare at his necklace for a long time, but also ask him about its origin?" Captain Liu continued with the next question.

"Yes, but they didn't ask any further questions. It was only after I took a few more glances that Senior Wen brought up the necklace's origin with me." Lin Yang cleared her thoughts and answered logically.

Captain Liu glanced at the lie detector, but there was still no reaction. "Did you steal that necklace? Where were you when Wen Yuli had the accident?"

"I didn't steal Senior Wen's necklace. I don't even know when he had his accident. I've been filming on set the whole time. You can ask other people if you don't believe me," Lin Yang replied with a clear conscience.

"Then why did you go down from the plateau again, and then happen to run into Wen Yuli who was having a heart attack, and help him up with him?" Captain Liu kept his eyes on the lie detector.

"..." Lin Yang didn't answer immediately, remaining silent for a long time.

"What? You're too scared to answer? Feeling guilty?" Finally finding a breakthrough, Captain Liu's tone became noticeably excited.

Lin Yang sighed, "No, it's just that I'm not good at bringing it up."

After all, I was trying to escape back then!

"Is it hard to speak? Are you afraid that your purpose in killing will be exposed?" Captain Liu stared at the lie detector, but it still didn't react at all.

Alright, at this point, I'll just say it.

Lin Yang took a deep breath and slowly exhaled before speaking, "I'm afraid Captain Liu has heard about my marriage to Xu Chengzhi, hasn't he?"

Team Leader Liu nodded, indicating that he knew a little about it.

"My marriage to Xu Chengzhi wasn't my own choice; I was forced into it... So that day, I finally managed to get Xu Chengzhi away and was planning to run away when I accidentally ran into Senior Wen, who insisted on coming up alone. He happened to have a heart attack, so I helped him find medicine. That's the whole story." Lin Yang finally finished explaining the matter, albeit awkwardly.

"..." Captain Liu stared in silence at the unresponsive lie detector.

This reason, while reasonable, is just so ridiculous.

After some investigation, Captain Liu couldn't find any substantial results, and specific clues about Wen Yuli's body still had to wait for the forensic doctor.

Therefore, Captain Liu arranged for Lin Yang to be placed in a single cell at the station, with no intention of releasing her.

After all, public opinion is growing stronger.

*

On Xu Chengzhi's side.

Ding Zhong has been released, but Lin Yang is still detained. Xu Chengzhi wanted to find someone to pull some strings, but too many people were watching this matter, and no one was willing to help.

So he set his sights on Ding Zhong.

"Ring—" Xu Chengzhi's phone rang.

The caller ID showed that he was the person he sent to find Ding Zhong.

"Did you bring the person?" Xu Chengzhi asked bluntly.

"Young Master, I'm sorry..." The person on the other end of the phone stammered, unable to speak.

"The person escaped?" Xu Chengzhi guessed that his subordinates had failed in their duties and asked through gritted teeth.

"No... someone took him away before us..." The man's voice was very weak.

"who?"

Who would dare to snatch someone right under his nose?

“Mr. Ex…” The man’s voice grew softer and softer.
