"How's the search going?"
Li Qin shook her head, "We didn't find anything."
Wang Xiao and Jiang Yang didn't find anything either.
Feng Xifan felt more confident, "Sir, I'm telling the truth. I'm really innocent."
"I'm also willing to believe that you're innocent, but investigating a case requires evidence. From the current clues and evidence, we still can't eliminate you as a suspect," Han Bin said.
"Why am I so unlucky?" Feng Xifan sighed.
"Don't blame yourself. If you want to clear your name as soon as possible, then provide us with more useful clues to help the police investigate the case, understand?"
"I'm really innocent," Feng Xifan shouted.
"Boohoo …"
Feng Xifan's wife cried too, "I told you not to go out and drink but you wouldn't listen. It's your fault for drinking so much that you don't even know where you are or what you've done. How can you be such a thug? "
"I'm a thug, I'm really a thug." Feng Xifan slapped his face, "I'll never drink again. I'll never drink again."
Han Bin frowned and ordered, "Take him to the car first."
Wang Xiao and Jiang Yang walked over and handcuffed Feng Xifan before escorting him into the police car.
Feng Xifan's wife grabbed Han Bin's arm, "Sir, our Old Feng doesn't even dare to kill a chicken. He wouldn't kill anyone. You can't wrongly accuse a good person."
"What time was it when you found the scooter?"
Feng Xifan's wife recalled, "I … I think it was around 8: 40."
Han Bin asked, "Where are the clothes that Feng Xifan was wearing?"
"I, I've already washed them."
"Where are the shoes?"
Feng Xifan's wife said in a sobbing tone, "I've washed them too."
Li Qin walked over and said, "Mrs Feng, you should come with us to the police station."
Feng Xifan's wife waved her hand, "No, I'm not going. This has nothing to do with me. I still have to go home and take care of my child. My child is about to finish school and I still have to cook for them."
"Don't be nervous. Leave the child in the care of your family and follow us to the police station to make a statement." Li Qin comforted.
"Aiyo, ever since I married Feng Xifan, I haven't had a good day. I can't do anything, I can't eat enough, and I'm losing money raising chickens. Now, I'm even involved in a murder case. Why am I so unlucky?" Feng Xifan's wife cried.
Han Bin was a little annoyed. He waved his hand and gestured for Li Qin to escort her to the car.
Han Bin chatted with his comrades from the police station and thanked them for their assistance in the search. Then, he escorted Feng Xifan back to the Municipal Bureau.
It was already seven o 'clock at night when they arrived at the Municipal Public Security Bureau.
Han Bin went to the captain's office and reported to Ma Jingbo.
Ma Jingbo handed Han Bin a cigarette. "Do you think Feng Xifan is not a suspect?"
Han Bin deliberated for a moment. "What he said matches the crime scene. I don't see any signs of lying. Personally, I don't think he's a big suspect."
Ma Jingbo paced around the room. "How did he get to the crime scene from near Siming Street and East River Road?"
"He said he was drunk and had no recollection of it. When he woke up, he was in the green belt." Han Bin replied and analyzed.
"If he's telling the truth, then based on my guess, it's very likely that the suspect saw him drunk and brought him to the crime scene to frame him after the murder."
"Is there any evidence?"
"No, this is just my speculation."
Ma Jingbo reminded him. "As a police officer, you can speculate, but you still have to rely on evidence."
"I understand."
"How did you find Feng Xifan?"
"Wang Xiao and Jiang Yang found the surveillance footage of Feng Xifan at the T-junction. It basically matches our speculation. From the surveillance footage, we can see him getting into a taxi. We found his house in the city and found Feng Xifan's wife. We asked her to lead us to the chicken farm."
Ma Jingbo nodded. "Tomorrow, send someone to investigate Feng Xifan's network and see if he has any connections with Mike."
"Yes."
The two chatted for a while more before Han Bin returned to his office.
He busied himself for another hour before driving home at eight o 'clock.
"Ring ring ring …"
As soon as Han Bin drove out of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, the car's stereo rang.
His phone was connected to the car's bluetooth. He tapped on the car's navigation screen and answered the call.
"Hello."
"Brother Bin, it's me." Li Hui's voice came from the phone.
"Team Leader Li, how come you have time to call me?" Han Bin asked.
"Hehe, I miss you."
"The sun rose from the west." Han Bin laughed.
"Are you busy these two days?"
Han Bin slowed down the car. "Why? You want to treat me to dinner?"
"Hehe, you're right. I'm going to treat my team to dinner tomorrow. You should come too," Li Hui said.
"What time tomorrow?"
"7: 30 PM."
"I'll see. If I can get off work at 7, I'll go. I just got a case today. I'm busy. "
Li Hui curiously asked, "What case?"
"A foreigner died in Binnan." Han Bin did not reveal the details of the case.
"Tsk tsk, that's cool. You're different in the Municipal Public Security Bureau. You're dealing with foreigners now."
"What about you? How's your team leader? "
"It's alright. We're so familiar with each other. Even if I don't do well, no one will criticize me," Li Hui said with concern.
"How are you doing now? You were transferred from below. Do the people in the Municipal Public Security Bureau respect you?"
"If you're not doing well, come back. Our Yuhua Branch isn't any worse than the Municipal Public Security Bureau. You can still be the team leader of Team 2."
Han Bin was touched. "Don't worry. I'm doing well in the Municipal Public Security Bureau. No one doesn't respect me."
"That's true. You're very capable. You're different from me." Li Hui suddenly changed the topic. "Alright, I'll talk to you later. Nana is calling me."
"Go do what you need to do. I'll go tomorrow if I have time. Since you're treating, it'll be a waste if I don't eat," Han Bin replied with a smile and hung up.
To be honest, Han Bin suddenly missed the Yuhua Branch. Li Hui, Zhao Ming, Tian Li, Captain Zeng, Sun Xiaopeng, Lynch, Director Dai, and Captain Zheng …
Luckily, everyone was in Qingdao. They would still have opportunities to work together in the future.
…
The next morning.
The Municipal Public Security Bureau, Second Squadron, Team 1's office.
At 9 am, Han Bin gathered everyone for a meeting.
Huang Qianqian was a very considerate girl. She prepared tea and coffee according to everyone's preferences.
Han Bin took a sip of coffee and smiled. "Qianqian's coffee tastes good. It's very refreshing. Everyone, work hard. Don't let Qianqian down."
Huang Qianqian grinned, showing her two canine teeth.
Bao Xing held the cup with both hands and took a sip. He stared at Han Bin and thought, 'Leader's words are very good. Look at how happy Qianqian is.'
Thinking of this, Bao Xing flipped open his notebook and jotted it down.
Han Bin glanced at everyone and began to talk about work. "Let's summarize the case and determine the main direction of today's investigation."
"Sister Li, is there any news from Chen Haijing?"
"I've contacted her. She said that Elizabeth has class in the morning and can only give her statement in the afternoon."
"Keep up."
"Got it."
Han Bin walked to the front and wrote down three names on the whiteboard. Elizabeth, David, and HAL. Then, he marked HAL with a pen.
"HAL is Mike's friend. He should know about Mike's situation in America. This person also needs to give his statement."
"Leader, let me investigate this person as well," Li Qin said.
Han Bin agreed and wrote down Feng Xifan's name. "Wang Xiao, Jiang Yang, you two continue to give Feng Xifan's statement. Comb through his network and see if he has any interactions with Mike."
"Yes."
Han Bin wrote another four words. "Four Seasons Cuisine."
"The night Mike was killed, he ate at this restaurant. This restaurant might have surveillance footage of Mike. I want to know the exact time he left the restaurant and whether anyone got into his car when he left."
"Oh, Four Seasons Cuisine. Is it that Japanese restaurant on Siming Street?" Huang Qianqian looked surprised.
"You know this restaurant?"
Huang Qianqian answered, "This restaurant is owned by my cousin. I was thinking of inviting everyone to eat there when we have time."
"Qianqian, why didn't you say so earlier? If you had, I would have gone to support you," Bao Xing said.
Huang Qianqian ignored him and showed a concerned look. "Leader, this restaurant doesn't have much to do with the case, right?"
"It's okay. We just need to give a statement to the person in charge of the restaurant and check the surveillance footage."
Huang Qianqian breathed a sigh of relief. "Leader, can I go with you? The restaurant is owned by my cousin. If I go, it'll be easier to talk to her."
Huang Qianqian was in a difficult position. She was an internal worker and did not have to go out to investigate. However, since she knew about this and Team One was in charge of the investigation, it would be bad if she did not inform her cousin. It would be against the rules to inform her cousin. The best way was for her to talk to her cousin personally.
Han Bin was not an unreasonable person. He said seriously, "I didn't want to at first, but for the sake of this cup of coffee, I agreed."
"Yay, thank you, Leader." Huang Qianqian looked very happy.
"Impressive." Suddenly, Bao Xing felt a sense of crisis. When Qianqian was with him, she did not smile all the time.
He flipped open his notebook and made another note.
…
Half an hour later.
Siming Street, Four Seasons Cuisine Restaurant.
A black SUV stopped in front of the restaurant. Han Bin, Bao Xing, and Huang Qianqian got out of the car.
The restaurant's decoration was very elegant and it had a bourgeois feel to it. The signboard was made of wood and it had the words "Four Seasons Cuisine" written on it. There were two lanterns hanging on both sides. One had the words "Cuisine" and the other had the words "Sushi".
At that moment, the restaurant had not officially opened yet. The door was ajar.
Huang Qianqian pushed the door open and brought Han Bin and the other two into the restaurant. The wooden tables and chairs and the Japanese decorations had an exotic feel to it.
Bao Xing said, "Aiya, the decorations are so beautiful!"
Huang Qianqian asked a waiter who was wiping the tables, "Is your boss here?"
"Yes, I'll help you …"
Before the waiter could finish speaking, a long-legged beauty came down the stairs. "Qianqian, why are you here? Don't you have to work today?"
