Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Wealth moved one’s heart.
Moreover, it was a rare calligraphy painting worth 100 million yuan.
Perhaps in the eyes of many onlookers, after eating this lon, they would sigh at how f*cking expensive it was and have no other thoughts.
However, in certain groups of people, it was not just that.
Ordinary people might only be envious of this news, but these specific people, other than envious, were probably thinking about how to act and convert this envy into their own.
The reason why they had not taken any action previously might be related to the safety asures of Huang Yangshen’s shop. At the sa ti, it was also related to the high-definition surveillance caras in four directions outside the shop.
Most importantly..
It was likely that he and Huang Yangsheng rarely left the shop, making it impossible for the thieves and thieves to find a chance to attack.
But it had been different recently.
Due to the modification of the circuit, the surveillance caras at the back door of the shop were turned off. This might have made the thoughts of these thieves and bandits active again.
In terms of patience, these thieves were also one of the best.
Perhaps it was last night, a thief who was keeping an eye on Huang Niansheng accidentally saw him. Out of curiosity, he followed him. After that, he leaned against the corner of the wall and heard the commotion inside. After Huang Niansheng left, he climbed in through the unlatched window and ransacked the second floor.
In the eyes of the thief, he wasn’t the one who killed Huang Yangsheng. Even if he called the police, the police would investigate the cause of Huang Yangsheng’s death.
Xu Bai was more inclined towards this possibility.
After all…
Huang Niansheng had a motive to kill, but no motive to take anything.
As for Xu Bai, the custor, he had a motive, but Xu Bai had a sufficient alibi.
Last night, he stayed at ho and did not go anywhere.
Hearing Xu Bai’s analysis, An Ya wanted to say sothing, but after thinking about it, she was still a little confused. “Is it really that simple?”
Xu Bai smiled and said, “Team Leader An, in your opinion, the value of the Dragon Heart Herb might be very high, but not everyone knows this. Moreover, in the eyes of the internal affairs bureau, many cases are very complicated, but in fact, in the eyes of our professional front-line agents, 90% of cases are very simple.”
The motive was simple and clear. The suspect was also simple and clear.
How could there be so many highly intelligent cris in this world?
Even if there was a high IQcri, even if they couldn’t find any evidence, as long as they caught the right person and brought him back to the police station, even the smartest suspect would have to kneel down and confess under the “Great mory Recovery Technique”.
Without exception.
An Ya pursed her lips and nodded.
“So what’s next?”
“Case closed!”
At three o’clock that afternoon, as soon as they went to work, the major dia in the East District received an invitation from the 38th Precinct. They hurriedly carried their caras and drove to the reception hall on the second floor of the 38th Precinct.
After a while.
The press liaison of the 38th Precinct was wearing a very eye-catching white uniform and carrying a script. He walked onto the stage with a smile and reported the results of the investigation to the many dia reporters present.
The suspect, Huang Niansheng, took the risk because he could not pay the high alimony and tried to create an accident to kill his grandfather, Huang Yang, to inherit a huge inheritance.
In the end, under the investigation of the number one detective of the 38th
Precinct, Agent Xu Bai, who was also known as a detective in the Feng City Police Departnt, he discovered the clues of this case in less than three hours and successfully arrested the suspect. He confessed to the case. At the sa ti, during the interrogation, he accidentally discovered another accidental death case related to him.
Huang Shengyang, who was found dead last year due to a heart attack, was also murdered in the sa way by the suspect, Huang Niansheng.
Of course.
Additional leads on the case were still pending.
After the announcent was made.
The reporters on the second floor were all stunned.
The next second.
Almost at the sa ti, many reporters reacted and hurriedly raised their hands, their expressions excited.
Big news.
It was 100% headline news.
In an instant.
The reporters raised their hands one after another, full of anticipation. So of them even looked at the beautiful news contact on stage affectionately, fighting to be the first to be blessed.
The commotion from the second floor could be heard even in the office of the Major Cris Investigation Unit.
In the lounge, Xu Bai stood by the floor-to-ceiling window and spoke to soone on the phone.
“Master.”
Su ng walked in with two cups of freshly made milk tea and handed one to
Xu Bai. “Wow, there are so many reporters on the second floor.”
Xu Bai hung up the phone and took the milk tea. He thanked her and walked to the sofa not far away. He sat down and smiled. “It’s normal. After all, this case is not an ordinary case.”
No matter which era it was, such a case of killing one’s own blood relatives would cause a sensation.
Su ng hugged the milk tea and took a sip. She looked at Xu Bai. “I don’t think Master is shocked at all.”
Xu Bai smiled and said, “Chen Peng and the others aren’t shocked either. After you graduate and handle the case yourself, you’ll know that this case is far from shocking.”
Su ng blinked. “Then, Master, can you tell what you find the most shocking? The case that requires you to handle.”
Xu Bai frowned. “Let think about it.”
Su ng nodded.
After a while.
Xu Bai thought of a case in May last year and ca back to his senses. He looked at Su ng and said, “In May last year, I arrested a 15 -year-old suspect who killed two female students of the sa grade.”
Su ng opened her mouth.
“Fifteen?”
“Yeah.”
“This seems to be the sa as this case except for age.”
“The nature is different.”
Xu Bai shook his head. “Huang Niansheng’s motive is money. Do you know what motive this fifteen-year-old suspect has?”
Su ng shook her head. “What?”
The corners of Xu Bai’s lips curled up as he looked at Su ng. “He made a bet with soone that he could kill his parents. That’s all.’
Su ng’s pupils constricted. “Just because of a bet?”
“Right.”
Su ng opened her mouth in disbelief. “Well… what happened after that?
Since he was only 15 years old, I think he can only go to juvenile detention.”
Xu Bai shrugged. He leaned against the sofa and took a sip of milk tea. “He didn’t go to the youth detention center.”
Su ng’s eyes widened. “Don’t tell they let him go?”
Xu Bai waved his hand.
“He’s dead.”
“Yes, he’s dead.”
Su ng blinked. “How did he die?”
Xu Bai shook his head. “At that ti, the case was still going through the investigation process. The detention room of the branch office was full, so I temporarily placed him at Feng City Prison. After one night, the next day, the prison told that he hanged himself last night.”
Su ng’s mouth ford an O shape.
The next second.
Su ng seed to have thought of sothing. Her eyes widened again and she could not help but look at Xu Bai.
Xu Bai smiled again, but he did not speak. Instead, he drank the milk tea in his hand.
After a while.
Downstairs in the branch office, excited voices could be heard. Not long after, the sound of various cars starting engines could be heard from the parking lot.
Su ng quickly got up and pulled her thoughts away from the case her master was talking about. She walked to the French window and faced it.
The first thing she saw was…
Countless cars that ca to attend this press conference rushed out of the police station like thousands of horses crossing a narrow bridge.
“Master, the press conference is over.”
Su ng blinked and looked at this scene. She turned to Xu Bai, who was sitting on the sofa, and said, “Master, I thought you would release fake news.”
Xu Bai looked up at Su ng with the ntality of testing her.
“Such as?”
“For example, we can release fake news and announce to the public that the case is over. Huang Yangsheng died accidentally from a heart attack. In this way, we can make the thief who stole the thing feel that he’s safe. Then, we can wait for him to deliver the goods and catch him.”
“Not bad.”
“But Master, you didn’t do that.”
Xu Bai smiled and first confird Su ng’s idea. Then, he shook his head and said, “The thod you ntioned is feasible, but it’s only suitable for Huang Niansheng. For example, we know that Huang Niansheng killed him, but without evidence, we can use this thod to make him give himself away.
However, it’s not suitable to use it here.”
Su ng blinked and sat down again, humbly asking for advice.
“I don’t understand, Master.”
“It’s actually very simple. This murder and theft case are two separate individuals. They didn’t take place at the sa ti. Let’s assu that this thief saw how Huang Niansheng ca out last night. Do you think he’s been observing Huang Niansheng today?”
…I think so.”
“Then, did he see us arresting Huang Niansheng in the dark? If we send a ssage at this ti saying that Huang Yangsheng died accidentally, what do you think this thief will think?”
“Then he must know we’re fishing for—
Su ng raised her eyebrows. At this point, she imdiately stopped and looked at Xu Bai.
The corners of Xu Bai’s mouth curled up.
“If we say that Huang Yangsheng died by accident, it’s obvious that as far as the thief is concerned, we’re fishing for him. But what if we report it truthfully?”
“…He knows that we’ve captured Huang Niansheng and he confessed. We’ll know soon enough that Huang Niansheng didn’t take those things?”
“What’s going to happen to him?”
“Go into hiding and wait for the lilight to pass?”
Xu Bai shook his head with a smile. “If we report the accidental death, he will choose to lie low because he understands that we already know that the murderer and the thief are not the sa person. However, our report now will give him the illusion that we have caught Huang Niansheng, but we might not know him yet. Under such circumstances, guess what he will do?” Su ng was speechless..
