Handcuffs and electronic shackles were locked onto Ji Lin’s wrists and ankles by the police.
“Ji Lin, although you have been released without charges, you still have an obligation to cooperate with our investigation during this ti,” said Officer Liu, admonishing him as he looked at Ji Lin fitted with the electronic tracking devices.
“You are free to move around, but only within the limits of Donghai City.
Should you exceed this range, the electronic shackles with tracking systems will automatically sound an alarm, and we will know your whereabouts at all tis,” Liu continued.
...
“So don’t run off, just stay within Donghai City, and we won’t interfere too much with your life.
We hope that if you have anything to confess or any clues to provide, you will contact our staff in a tily manner,” he added.
Afterward, Ji Lin stood up, yawned, and stretched lazily.
He left.
His driver had been waiting at the door for a while and opened the car door for him before driving away from the Donghai City Public Security Bureau.
…
The next day.
Donghai City Public Security Bureau issued multiple announcents, declaring that the 00:42 serial murders had been completely solved and the mastermind behind the scenes had finally been caught.
The people of Donghai City celebrated, heartened by the news.
Chu Shanhe sat in his living room, reading the Donghai Daily that had just been delivered that morning…
On the front page, a black-and-white photo of Ji Xinshui was printed, detailing his series of cris.
Including the murders of Xu Yun, Tang Xin, Dr.
Pang Simai, and other unknown cases.
Academician Lyon’s hypocritical facade was also completely exposed, shocking everyone.
This greatly revered inventor was actually on the sa level as Ji Xinshui, with nurous instances of academic fraud, deception, and theft.
Also exposed for their cris was Sergeant Sam, the perpetrator of the murders.
According to the announcent from Donghai police, these three ford the group responsible for the recent series of murders of scientists.
The only ones exposed were these three.
Chu Shanhe looked at the report and fell into deep thought…
The cris of Ji Lin and Zhou Duanyun were not ntioned at all in the external reports.
This was Lin Xian’s intention.
Neither he nor Officer Liu knew the significance of Lin Xian’s actions, but they chose to trust him.
This clever young man must have had a plan unknown to others.
All they could do,
was to wait silently…
wait for Lin Xian to bring another surprise to this society, to this world.
“As expected, each generation brings forth new heroes,” said Chu Shanhe, shaking his head with a smile as he turned to the next page of the newspaper:
“It’s really not okay to resist getting old.
The world will have to rely on the younger generation…”
The second page, the upper half, featured a large photo—
A handso picture of Lin Xian in a suit.
The entire page was dedicated to Lin Xian’s “great achievents,” recounting his actions while on secondnt to the Donghai City Public Security Bureau, from chasing the murderer’s taxi alone to designing an ambush to arrest Ji Xinshui.
It was as if they were hailing Lin Xian as a living Sherlock Hols, the real Jas Bond!
The article concluded with the news that the officials in Donghai City were considering holding a special comndation ceremony for Lin Xian and awarding him corresponding honors, planning a city-wide study session.
Chu Shanhe nodded in satisfaction.
That’s more like it.
He had long felt that this was deserved, the honor due to Lin Xian.
But Lin Xian had always been reluctant about this, repeatedly and tactfully refusing, so the officials in Donghai City had no choice.
However, after this incident, Lin Xian finally sowhat reluctantly accepted.
“Donghai City needs more role models like you,” Chu Shanhe had told Lin Xian.
Every man is responsible for the fate of his country.
It is an indisputable duty to promote positive energy in society and establish positive role models for the youth to emulate.
However…
These things would only be considered after Ji Xinshui’s case was completely closed and after Lin Xian’s final plan had succeeded.
Chu Shanhe closed the newspaper and set it on the coffee table.
Then he leaned back, folded his arms, and rested against the soft sofa, with a slight frown:
“What exactly is Lin Xian’s final plan?”
“Hasn’t he already let Ji Lin go?
Could there be so other trick up his sleeve?”
…
MX Company, 20th floor, Lin Xian’s office.
On Lin Xian’s desk, he too had a copy of this morning’s Donghai Daily.
He looked at the front-page news and the photo of Ji Xinshui.
As it stood, Ji Xinshui’s death sentence was secured, and the man himself showed no objection nor a desire to appeal, so the execution of the death sentence by injection would happen swiftly, most likely in no more than ten days to half a month.
In the report, not only was Zhou Duanyun’s na and cris completely erased, but Zheng Chenghe’s na was also not ntioned at all.
Firstly, because Zheng Chenghe had no criminal facts, and as the tire tracks showed clear skid marks from braking and swerving, he didn’t cause any substantial harm to people.
Besides, Zheng Chenghe had no criminal record, abided by the law, and even Ji Xinshui didn’t reveal any evidence of his involvent in cris.
After considering various factors, taking into account the pitiful background of the siblings and Zheng Xiangyue’s unstable health condition, the report omitted any ntion of Zheng Chenghe.
His initial murder motive would no longer be pursued.
“Good deeds bring good rewards, and evil deeds bring retribution,” Lin Xian murmured to himself, repeating what Zheng Chenghe often told Zheng Xiangyue:
“Perhaps for you, this is also a case of good deeds bringing good rewards,”
He closed the newspaper.
