According to Mu Xinran's confession, she received a blackmail call on October 7th. Since then, she had not received any blackmail calls.
There was no blackmail call, and the police did not have a recording of the phone call, so there was no direct evidence to prove Jiang Erkang's blackmail.
Han Bin had always been puzzled about this. According to a normal blackmail case, it was impossible for the blackmailer not to call for three days.
"Brother Bin, I found a key, suspected to belong to Mu Xinran's family," Zhao Ming said.
Han Bin wore gloves, took the key, and asked, "Jiang Erkang, what do you say about this?"
"It belongs to Mu Xinran's family," Jiang Erkang admitted readily.
"You're speaking quite confidently." Zhao Ming snorted.
"It doesn't matter if you are secretly filming or blackmailing. It is a crime. Come with us," Han Bin said.
"Wait, such a small matter like secretly filming shouldn't need the criminal police to care. Even if you want to bring my husband to investigate, it should be the police station's business." Guo Jiahui stopped them.
"Your husband installed a video in someone's bedroom and secretly filmed someone's privacy. Do you still think it is reasonable?" Zhao Ming asked.
"As long as it is a person, they will make mistakes. Haven't you heard of it?" Guo Huijia did not show weakness.
"His crime needs further investigation. We don't need you to teach us what to do." Han Bin said, "Handcuff him and take him away."
"Wife, I will go with the police. You take care of the house," Jiang Erkang said.
"Don't worry, I will hire a lawyer. You will be out soon," Guo Huijia comforted.
"Thank you, wife."
"Husband, I love you." Guo Jiahui kissed Jiang Erkang's cheek.
"Me too." Jiang Erkang hugged her.
The couple's behavior was very unusual. Han Bin guessed that Guo Jiahui should be related to the case. "Miss Guo, please come with us to the police station to make a statement."
"This case has nothing to do with me, and I don't have time." Guo Jiahui shrugged.
"Police, I did it alone. It has nothing to do with my wife." Jiang Erkang stood in front of Guo Jiahui.
"Brother Bin, the search is done," Li Hui said.
"Let's go."
…
An hour later.
Yu Hua Branch, Team Two office.
Jiang Erkang had already been brought to the station, but Han Bin did not interrogate him immediately. Instead, he summoned everyone to his office to summarize the clues.
Other than Han Bin, Li Hui, and Zhao Ming, Tian Li and Sun Xiaopeng also returned to the office.
"Han Bin" said. "Jiang Erkang and Li Xia transferred two million to Jiang Erkang," Tian Li said. "Jiang Erkang and Li."
"We've checked Jiang Erkang and Li Xia's bank accounts. Jiang Erkang transferred two million to Li Xia some time ago. I don't believe that he spent so much money just to secretly take pictures."
Jiang Erkang transferred two million to Li Xia. I don't believe that he spent so much money just to take pictures, "said Tian Li.
"I think there's something wrong with this Guo Huijia. A normal woman would feel embarrassed and disappointed when she heard that her husband was secretly taking photos. She might even reprimand her husband in front of the police, but Guo Huijia was very calm and even supported her husband. I don't think it's that simple," Li Hui said.
"This Guo Huijia is very likely an accomplice," Zhao Ming said.
"Evidence. What we lack now is evidence." Tian Li shrugged and continued, "How do we prove that Jiang Erkang committed blackmail, and how do we prove that Guo Jiahui is related to the case?"
"Let me rearrange the task." Han Bin thought for a moment.
"Zhao Ming and Xiaopeng, check the financial situation of Jiang Erkang and his wife. Find out where the two million Jiang Erkang transferred to Li Xia came from. Also, they are moving. Check the situation of the house."
"Yes."
"Tian Li, go to Mu Xinran's house and give her a statement. Ask her to help provide evidence of Jiang Erkang's blackmail."
…
Han Bin held a teacup and walked into the interrogation room with Li Hui.
As soon as he entered the room, Jiang Erkang nodded and said, "Hello, leaders."
"What's so good about having you to worry about?" Li Hui scoffed.
"I am willing to cooperate with the police investigation. I am willing to reduce my sentence." Jiang Erkang said seriously.
Han Bin sat behind the table and asked a routine question. He said seriously, "Then tell me, what crime did you commit?"
"I shouldn't have taken pictures of others. I was wrong."
Han Bin knocked on the table with a pen. "Why did you take pictures of Mu Xinran?"
"I like her. I want to know more about her," Jiang Erkang said.
"Your way of liking people is quite unique. You installed a camera in her bedroom." Li Hui snorted.
"I am a man. I don't know what happened at that time. I installed it in the bedroom on impulse." Jiang Erkang smiled.
"You transferred two million to Li Xia on impulse?" Han Bin asked.
"That can't be helped. If I didn't do that, I wouldn't be able to do it."
"Spending two million just to do this, do you think it's worth it?"
"Worth it."
"Did you call Mu Xinran to blackmail her?"
"I called her, but it wasn't blackmail," Jiang Erkang said.
"Tell me the content of the call."
"Sigh …" Jiang Erkang sighed. "I especially like women who are good wives and loving mothers. I've seen Mu Xinran's TV dramas, and they're all like that. I'm not afraid of you guys laughing at me, but apart from my wife, she's my favorite woman."
"You are a married man. Aren't you ashamed to say such things?" Li Hui snorted.
"I didn't do anything wrong to my wife. I just wanted to see her more." Jiang Erkang rubbed his nose and sighed. "I didn't expect Mu Xinran to be such a two-faced woman. Seeing her like that with a little boy, I was very angry. I was very angry."
"Then you blackmailed her?"
"I didn't blackmail her. I just felt that she had tarnished the image of a good wife and loving mother. I felt that she was lying. She shouldn't act in such roles anymore. I called her and told her to stop acting in such movies and TV dramas. It would be best if she could study abroad and reflect on her deceptive behavior all these years. She should improve her moral standards and be a person who is the same as what she looks like," Jiang Erkang said.
"What if she didn't agree?"
"It was just my suggestion. I didn't think that much at the time."
"But Mu Xinran reported that you sent the video to her and asked her for ten million in blackmail," Han Bin said.
Jiang Erkang shrugged. "I didn't. I am not stupid. I will be locked up for a few days at most. Extortion of ten million is a sentence. My wife is so beautiful. I can't bear to leave her alone at home."
"Do you think Mu Xinran is framing you?" Han Bin asked.
"I think so."
"Do you two know each other? Why would she frame you? "
"If she didn't lie, this is just an ordinary case of secretly filming. It should be handed over to the police. Do you think the police can catch me?" Jiang Erkang asked.
Han Bin frowned slightly, and his expression was a little ugly.
Was Jiang Erkang lying?
Or was Mu Xinran lying?
Or were both of them not telling the truth?
What were they hiding!
