Chapter 35: No matter how cunning the fox is, it can't beat a good hunter
In a large hotel in Jinnan City, A Cai was live streaming to introduce the dishes. He and Annie received an invitation to check in at the hotel to promote it.
Suddenly, several policemen came over. Anne's eyes showed a trace of panic, and the spoon in her hand fell to the ground.
"Hello, Mr. Song. We are from the Criminal Police Brigade of the Jinnan Public Security Bureau. We now suspect that you are involved in a homicide case. Please come with us."
Officer Yang showed his ID, then looked at Annie and said, "Ms. Zhao, please come with us."
Ah Cai was not panicking at all, holding the phone and continued: "My fellow fans, a few police officers have found me now, but don't worry, we'll see you live at 8 o'clock tonight!"
After turning off the live broadcast, Ah Cai turned around and looked at Officer Yang, and asked in surprise: "Officer, what happened? I'm very busy, why don't you contact my lawyer directly!"
Officer Yang took out the criminal detention warrant and placed it on the table, saying sternly, "Mr. Song, please cooperate, otherwise I will take compulsory measures."
Ah Cai stood up, straightened his hair, and said with a smile, "Let's go, officer."
At the same time, he patted Annie on the shoulder and said, "Don't be afraid, baby. The police just want us to cooperate with the investigation. It's okay..."
…
On the other hand, Qiu Qiang came to the homestay rented by Song Shan and his girlfriend with a search warrant, but after searching every corner, he found no clues related to the murder.
In the interrogation room, Ah Cai looked at Officer Wen calmly, still smiling, and said, "Officer, I don't know what you are talking about. I want to see my lawyer, and I refuse to answer any questions before my lawyer comes."
Wen Jie looked at Song Shan and was more certain that he was involved in the case. He took out a few pieces of paper and placed them in front of Song Shan, saying, "Du Chunyan was your girlfriend ten years ago. You told her about the murder and robbery you and your brother Song Lin committed, but she called the police. Your brother was sentenced to death, and you were sentenced to eight years in prison because you were under 18 years old... After you were released from prison, you found Du Chunyan and killed her..."
"Hey, officer, what story are you telling? I don't understand it!"
Song Shan interrupted Officer Wen, looked at him with disdain, and said with a smile: "Shouldn't the police talk about evidence when handling cases? Why is it popular to tell stories now..."
At this time, Qiu Qiang's voice came from Wenjie's headphones: Captain Wen, no evidence was found in Song Shan's residence. I have notified the public security bureau where Song Shan was previously located to assist in investigating the hotel surveillance video of Song Shan leaving and entering his residence.
"Officer, could you please be more professional? I have a live broadcast tonight and I have already collected the money. The penalty for breach of contract is very high..." Song Shan looked at Officer Wen impatiently.
From then on, whenever Wenjie mentioned anything related to the case, Song Shan would either say he wanted to see a lawyer or simply keep silent.
After leaving the interrogation room, Wen Jie and Director Fu looked at each other and said, "It seems to be a tough nut to crack. Next, we will start with his girlfriend and see if Captain Qiu can find evidence."
No fingerprints or DNA of Song Shan were found at the crime scene, and there was no evidence at Song Shan’s residence to accuse him of murder. Based solely on the city and time where the short video was shot, it is impossible to identify Song Shan as the suspect.
Song Shan is very smart and cautious.
In another interrogation room, Annie, whose real name is Zhao Qi, also knew nothing about anything. She seemed to be cooperative, but she kept beating around the bush.
Not long after, Song Shan's lawyer came, Ding Lei, a notorious lawyer in the industry who specializes in defending rich people. In his eyes, no matter whether you have violated the law or not, as long as you give money, he will defend you.
Having won several highly controversial cases, he gained the trust of wealthy people.
This is a lawyer who is recognized to have his conscience bought by money.
In a small room, Ding Lei looked at Song Shan, who looked calm, and said, "The police can only detain you for 24 hours. I am already negotiating with the other party regarding the compensation for your live broadcast. Here, you just need to keep silent, and leave the rest to me..."
"Thank you for your hard work, Lawyer Ding." Song Shan raised his lips and whispered in Lawyer Ding's ear, "Please look after Annie for me. Girls are a little nervous."
On the other hand, Qiu Qiang was busy collecting evidence, including video surveillance footage transferred back from public security bureaus in various places and Song Shan's accommodation in the hotel. However, Song Shan did not leave the hotel on the night of the incident.
However, it was not without gain. Song Shan’s girlfriend Zhao Qi always chose the second floor when booking a hotel, and there were no guardrails in the room.
This also means that Song Shan was very likely to have left through the window. During his visit to the hotels , he found that there were no surveillance cameras behind the hotels.
The police expanded the scope and found the suspect wearing a mask and a hat near the hotel.
But even so, there is no way to prove that Song Shan is the person wearing the mask and hat.
"Scumbag!" Yang Lin angrily threw the transcript on the table and looked at Wen Jie and said, "Master, are you going to let him leave so openly? Thirteen lives! He is simply a devil!"
Officer Wen also had an ugly look on his face. He glared at Yang Lin and replied, "No matter how cunning a fox is, there will be a time when its tail is exposed. As a criminal police officer, what we have to do is to find a breakthrough, find evidence, and make him receive the punishment he deserves!"
"Check Song Shan and Zhao Qi's call records, online shopping records, and chat records on the short video platform. Expand the scope and don't miss any details!"
There are only eight hours left, and the police don't have much time left.
"Wait! Contact the short video platform and ask them to send all the victim's account chat records. How did the murderer know the victim's address? Follow this line of thought..."
As time passed, Song Shan remained calm, but Zhao Qi became more and more nervous.
The last thirty minutes.
Suddenly, Officer Wen walked in and said seriously: "Song Shan, you are suspected of killing thirteen women. We have initiated criminal detention against you according to the law ... Don't worry, we have notified your lawyer..."
"Zhao Qi, you are suspected of assisting Song Shan in killing thirteen women. We are detaining you according to the law..."
Song Shan suddenly raised his head, looked at Officer Wen and laughed, "Hahaha, impossible, you are deceiving me, I have the right to sue you, I want to see my lawyer... You are breaking the law!"
Wen Jie ignored Song Shan and handcuffed him directly, saying: "No matter how cunning a fox is, it can't beat a good hunter. You will be punished by law!"
"I won't leave. I want to see a lawyer. You have no evidence..." Song Shan grabbed the interrogation chair tightly.
"You are very smart. You destroyed all the evidence, but there is one thing you will not destroy..." Wenjie said.
"What?" Song Shan raised his head and looked into Wenjie's eyes.
"The one who helps you find your target!"
Song Shan's face turned pale instantly, and he collapsed to the ground, then he laughed crazily: "They all deserve to die, okay? Am I not good to her? She should be punished for doing something wrong..."
