"Yes, he's a typical otaku, a block of wood. I don't even know what I saw in him at the beginning." In the interrogation room, Zhang Shixiong's ex-girlfriend continued to narrate her opinion of Zhang Shixiong. "I thought that since his parents are educators and come from a scholarly family, it would be good if he had a bit of a scholar's temperament.
"But he loves to play games, and he forgets everything when he's playing. How can I continue to be friends with such a person?"
"Zhang Shixiong … Um …" The police officer in charge of the interrogation asked cautiously, "Did he talk to you about the Red Bathtub Case?"
"Huh? Red bathtub? The seven countries are in chaos, "the woman said in a Cantonese dialect." You arrested him, could it be … Could it be that you suspect him of being a murderer?
"Mo Hounan (Impossible)! That's impossible, "the woman said, waving her hand." Although Zhang Shixiong works in the hospital, it's absolutely impossible for him to kill someone!
He's so timid that he doesn't even dare to watch the fun, let alone kill someone … "
"Big sister," the police officer said in Cantonese, "I'm not asking you about that. Try to recall, did Zhang Shixiong ever talk to you about the Red Bathtub?"
"Red Bathtub … We … Um …" She rubbed her temples hard, thinking hard for a moment, then said uncertainly, "We watched a TV show together, and we did talk about it … But … There didn't seem to be anything special about it, right?"
"Think about it again …" The interrogator reminded her, "What did he say to you at that time?"
"The killer was a foreigner. This case is well-known in Yunzhou, but at that time, we weren't even born yet …" the woman said. "Zhang Shixiong liked to watch it. I remember that I seemed to have seen an old photo of the Red Bathtub in one of his notebooks or on his computer …
"But … That's all … There's really nothing special about it …"
"Old photo?" The interrogator wondered. "Why would the old photo be in the notebook?"
"Oh, that's right!" The woman recalled again. "That's … On the computer!"
"Which computer?" The interrogator asked.
"You threw it away a long time ago, right?" The woman said, "Zhang Shixiong was very stingy to me, but he was very generous when it came to changing computers. I often scolded him that I was just his little girlfriend, and the computer was his big girlfriend …"
Hearing this news, Miao Ying and Cui Lizhu in the monitoring room looked at each other. Cui Lizhu quickly picked up her phone and wrote it down. She must check Zhang Shixiong's computer later.
"Then …" the interrogator asked again, "How much do you know about Zhang Shixiong's family and work? Tell us about it! "
"Oh … okay, okay. I have to say, his parents are very nice, honest, and kind … After we broke up, they even came to me and begged me to get back together with Zhang Shixiong …"
Just like that, the woman continued to tell them everything she knew. Miao Ying and Cui Lizhu stopped for a while. Feeling that the amount of information was not too much, the two of them walked out of the monitoring room.
"Sister Miao, it's almost time." Cui Lizhu looked at her watch and said, "If this is all the evidence, we have to let them go!"
"I know," Miao Ying said. "It doesn't matter. Just follow the procedure. Although we have let them go, we have to keep an eye on him. Cui … You will be in charge of this matter!
"If Zhang Shixiong is really the murderer, then this person is very cunning and not easy to deal with!"
"I understand. Don't worry, I will keep an eye on him! But … "Cui Lizhu said worriedly," Sister Miao, have you ever thought that if Zhang Shixiong is not the Red Bathtub Killer, then it will be very bad!
If that happens, it is very likely that there will be a new Red Bathtub Case. Then … "
"Tsk tsk …" Miao Ying was also worried about this. She was also starting to feel uncertain.
After working on cases for so many years and experiencing so many ups and downs, every time they locked onto a suspect, they could basically determine whether the suspect was really a criminal or not!
However, Zhang Shixiong's reaction made it difficult for them to grasp the situation.
Although Zhang Shixiong seemed to be related to Zhang Qile's murder and the Red Bathtub Case, after investigating for so long, they had not found any substantial evidence!
What the hell is going on?
Could it be that the murderer is really not him?
At that moment, the two of them were about to return to the office, but as they walked, Miao Ying pulled Cui Lizhu to the other side of the corridor.
Cui Lizhu wanted to ask, but after thinking about it, she suddenly understood.
On the other side of the corridor was a formal interrogation room, where a person was detained. It was Zhang Shixiong!
Miao Ying and Cui Lizhu knocked on the door, and a police officer immediately opened the door and welcomed them in.
At that moment, Wu Xiumin, who had been fighting for a long time, was also in the monitoring room. After seeing Miao Ying and Cui Lizhu, Wu Xiumin shook her head and sighed.
"This Zhang Shixiong is really hard to guess." Wu Xiumin pointed to the frozen image on the screen and said, "From some of the subtle movements, Zhang Shixiong is extremely nervous. He must be trying to hide something!
"But, his answers are watertight, without any flaws …" Wu Xiumin said regretfully. "If we don't have any evidence, we can only release him at noon!"
"Mm …" Miao Ying didn't say much, but came to the one-way glass and carefully observed Zhang Shixiong in the interrogation room.
At that moment, Zhang Shixiong was extremely tired, and he was resting on the table. Miao Ying didn't know if he was pretending, or if he was really asleep.
"Then," Wu Xiumin continued, "I will do a complete data analysis based on Zhang Shixiong's confession to see if he is lying!"
Cui Lizhu pondered and said, "If Zhang Shixiong is really the murderer, then … Where is the murder weapon? What about the sacrificial items? What about Zhang Qile's personal belongings?
"After the murder, shouldn't he deal with it?" Cui Lizhu said, "So, we continue to use the surveillance to keep an eye on him and see where he went after that.
"If we can find those things, wouldn't that solve the problem?"
"Brother Tao is working on it, but …" Miao Ying shook her head and said, "Zhang Shixiong drives an ambulance. Those things can be disposed of after work, or even during work hours. It would be too difficult to find them!
Moreover, we can't be sure if Zhang Shixiong is the murderer … "
"No matter how difficult it is, we have to investigate!" Cui Lizhu said. "Boss said that even if there is only a one in a million chance, we have to fight for it!
"Who knows when he will show up. We can't let him look down on us! We can't be unable to solve the case without him, right? "
"Mm!" Miao Ying nodded and said, "I will ask Brother Tao to send more people to follow up on the investigation!
Also, I will apply for a search warrant later, so that we can search Zhang Shixiong's parents' house! And his unit … "
"Okay!" Cui Lizhu said. "After Zhang Shixiong is released, I will be in charge of keeping an eye on him!"
Beep beep … Beep beep …
At the critical moment, Miao Ying's phone rang.
Miao Ying opened it and saw that it was Zeng Ke calling her.
"Hello, Team Leader Miao." Zeng Ke's excited voice came through the phone. "A miracle happened! Do you remember Zhang Qile's ex-boyfriend, Ma Biao? "
"Oh? What's wrong? "Miao Ying was surprised. She didn't know why Zeng Ke mentioned this person.
"We just sent him a photo of Zhang Shixiong," Zeng Ke said. "Ma Biao said that he saw Zhang Shixiong seven years ago!
And, at that time, Zhang Shixiong and Zhang Qile seemed to be arguing about something. So, Zhang Shixiong and Zhang Qile probably know each other! "
