Chapter 7 Li Xue
After Zhao Ming finished the call and returned to the room, he found Han Fei and Zhang Xiaotian were desperately swiping their phone screens.
"What are you doing?"
"I entered the appearance information of the person Han Fei mentioned into the database. He described it in great detail, so I think I'll be able to match it up soon... I found it!" Zhang Xiaotian looked at the face that appeared on the screen, his expression gradually becoming strange. He put the phone in front of Han Fei: "I'll simulate and compare the face according to the information you mentioned. Can you see if this person is the store owner?"
When Han Fei saw the old man on the screen, he blurted out, "Yes, that's him! He also said that his whole family is my fan! They especially like my show!"
"I feel like he didn't lie to you, but you lied to us." Zhang Xiaotian slid his phone, revealing the following information: "This old man is a gravekeeper in the outer city of Xinhu. His parents died young and he has no children. If you have to talk about his family, then his family should be the hundreds of unnamed graves in the outer city cemetery."
"Impossible! This old man was comforting me in the thrift store yesterday and cheering me up. Did you make a mistake?" Han Fei repeatedly checked the information and pictures on his phone.
"Did he comfort you yesterday?" Zhang Xiaotian scrolled to the last page of messages on his phone. "Look carefully, this old man passed away three days ago, and he was buried in a cemetery in the outer city."
It is impossible for the citizen information system to make mistakes. Han Fei was completely stunned when he saw the gray head portrait of the old man on the last page.
"But you're right about one thing. He is indeed your fan. He likes your jokes that aren't funny at all. He often plays your shows in and outside the cemetery at night. He has scared passers-by several times. There is a record of our police response in his citizen file."
Zhang Xiaotian put away his phone after he finished speaking. He and Zhao Ming looked at Han Fei together and said, "Don't stand there stupidly. If you really didn't set the fire, then come with us. We won't wrongly accuse a good person, nor will we let a bad person go."
"I can cooperate with you, but I hope to go to Antique Street to take a look. I still can't accept it." Han Fei's mind is very confused now. All the things are squeezed together. He thought his life was bad enough, but he didn't expect that there is such a big room for decline.
After going to Antique Street in person and seeing the completely burned streets, Han Fei completely gave up.
The bodies were destroyed and even the ground was cracked by the fire. Even if there was any evidence, it would have turned to ashes long ago.
"Why me? Is it because that old man is my fan?"
"Other people's fans give celebrities handwritten letters, chocolates, and pens, why do my few fans want to kill me?"
At nine o'clock in the morning, Han Fei arrived at the Xingfu Road Police Station in the old city. Perhaps because it was his first time riding in a police car, his lips were pale and his mental state was very bad.
"I'm going to Captain Wang to report on my work. Xiaotian, please keep an eye on him." After Zhao Ming left, Zhang Xiaotian asked Han Fei to enter the summons room first. In his opinion, the "arsonist" Han Fei himself was very dangerous and must be separated from others.
"You are really mistaken. I have never even lit firecrackers, let alone set fire to the street."
"Stay still."
"What a misunderstanding!" Han Fei hadn't finished speaking when the door of the summons room was closed. "You really caught the wrong person! The murderer is someone else! I'm also a victim!"
"Stop shouting. Don't you know whether you have committed a crime or not?" A woman's voice sounded in the summons room.
Han Fei looked back. The first thing that caught his eye was a pair of black half-length Martin boots resting on the table in the summons room, followed by a pair of slender legs in black skinny jeans.
“Does it look good?”
The woman sitting at the innermost part of the summons room had an incredibly good figure. She never looked up from beginning to end. She was clearly concentrating on playing with her mobile phone, but she seemed to know everything that happened in the room.
"Take a few more glances. You won't have a chance after you go in. Although our country's Criminal Law only stipulates the crime of arson and not the crime of intentional arson, there is no . I heard that you burned down an entire street, so how can you not be sentenced to life imprisonment? You are also a ruthless person."
"Don't slander me. I'm different from criminals like you. I'm here to help the police find the truth. This arson case is not that simple. There must be other culprits behind it." There are only two types of people who can enter the police station's summons room - police officers or suspects, so Han Fei didn't think much about it. His mind was full of things about games.
"The mastermind?" The woman raised her head for the first time. She seemed to have discovered something interesting. "Indeed, burning down an entire street requires a careful plan. Multiple fire points must be set at the same time to allow the fire to spread rapidly. However, the on-site surveillance did not capture anything except you. It feels like you were deliberately pulled out as a scapegoat."
"Finally, I met someone who understands." Han Fei originally had no good feelings towards that woman, but so far, that woman was the only one who spoke up for him.
"It's a very simple logic, but what's there about you that is worthy of being framed? A fly won't bite an egg without cracks. There must be something wrong with you." The woman's intuition was very sharp and her eyes were extremely sharp.
"What's wrong with me? I worked so hard to get a chance to appear on camera, but it was squeezed out by someone with connections. I wanted to relax, but..." Han Fei thought about what happened to him last night. He felt that it was a miracle that he survived. "I won't say more. I used to think that when God closes a door for a person, he will always open a window for him, leaving him a glimmer of hope."
"What now?"
"I felt like God not only sealed all my doors and windows, but also put a ghost in my house."
Han Fei has rarely communicated with others before, but after playing "Perfect Life", he started talking more. Maybe this was his last burst of energy.
"Although I don't know the truth, I feel like you're having a miserable time."
"It's all tears if I talk too much. Big sister, why did you come in?" Han Fei walked to the side of the woman.
"Big sister?" The woman's eyes twitched, but she didn't bother with Han Fei. "I was in a fight. I broke one person's nose and broke the ribs of two other people. The situation was quite critical at the time, so I didn't think too much about it."
"You're so good at fighting?"
"so so."
Perhaps because they were both wanderers in the world, the conversation between the two went smoothly, and Han Fei also tried to tell him what happened in the game.
"Your reasoning is correct. The old lady definitely has a freezer hidden in her home, but judging from her physical condition, she is not the murderer. She just assisted in hiding the body. I suspect the real murderer is her family."
"I think so!"
The two people in the summons room were chatting animatedly as if they had known each other's secret code.
"What's the old lady's name? I can help you check it out when I get out." The woman looked very serious. She believed Han Fei's words, which was very rare for her.
"The old lady's name is Meng Shi, she's probably in her seventies, with a head full of silver hair and slightly uneven shoulders. She also has a grandson named Chenchen..."
"Okay." The woman recorded all the information on her phone: "Add my account, and we can contact each other by phone in the future."
"Thank you for your help, but I'm in a hurry here. When can you get out?"
"If you're in a hurry, I'll go out now." After saying that, the woman stood up and kicked the door of the summons room.
“Bang!”
The door opened, and Han Fei was stunned: "Is this possible?"
The woman walked out openly, and then she heard a roar from the police station: "Li Xue! You are disorganized and undisciplined! You are getting more and more outrageous! I'm going to call your leader! "
Hearing the middle-aged man's voice, Han Fei understood a little: "She is a police officer?"
"She is not an ordinary police officer. She joined the Criminal Investigation Brigade's Major Case Team at the age of 23 and has participated in solving many major cases in the past five years. However, she was punished and transferred from the Criminal Investigation Team because she beat suspects many times and did not abide by the rules." Zhang Xiaotian looked at the door lock that was kicked and sighed: "On the surface, they said that the police station needs to strengthen the criminal investigation force and transferred her to strengthen the team, but in fact, she was punished and transferred to the police station to do basic work. Her leader wants to temper her temper."
