Jin Shaoyong explained, "We don't have any bad intentions and we don't want to hurt anyone. We just want to increase the popularity of the show."
If Lu Jingfang wasn't dead, this explanation might still be acceptable. Now that Lu Jingfang was dead, this explanation seemed a little weak.
Han Bin continued to ask, "What about Zhou Jingjing?"
Jin Shaoyong recalled, "I also remember Zhou Jingjing. She has two small canine teeth and is very cute. I quite like her personality."
"You know this show quite well. You're almost as good as the show's producer."
Jin Shaoyong said, "The company invested money, so I have to make sure that the money is worth it. So, it can be considered as doing some work."
"You like her, yet you call her a love-struck girl who can't move when she sees a handsome guy and can't wait to throw herself into his arms …" Han Bin read a few comments, "You're a man, how can you say that about a girl?"
Jin Shaoyong hesitated, "I didn't say this. This account is operated by another employee. I'm usually busy and don't have time to do this myself. Also, I can't say these words."
"What's the employee's name?"
"Zhang Xiaoxin."
"Male? Female? "
"Female, a college graduate last year."
Bao Xing shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Why would a woman make things difficult for another woman?"
Han Bin wasn't surprised. Opposites attract and the same sex repel. If a woman made things difficult for another woman, it would be none of the man's business.
"Other than the two of you, has anyone else used this account?"
"No … After all, it's not good for too many people to know about this." Jin Shaoyong looked a little embarrassed.
Han Bin put down the carbon pen, "Well, you know it's wrong, but why did you still do it?"
"I'm doing it for work, not for personal grudges. I don't have any bad intentions towards those girls."
"Work." Han Bin's tone became heavier as he asked, "You mean, these things were all done by Mr. Li?"
"No, no." Jin Shaoyong waved his hand and said quickly, "Absolutely not. I've never told Mr. Li about this. He doesn't know at all."
Speaking up to this point, Jin Shaoyong took a deep breath. "Officer Han, I admit that our comments were a little harsh, but it was just to hype up the show. This kind of thing shouldn't be illegal, right?"
"Yeah, it's not illegal to create hype."
Jin Shaoyong asked, "Then I don't understand. Since we didn't break the law, why would this matter alarm the city's Criminal Investigation Unit?"
"Because Lu Jingfang and Zhou Jingjing, the targets of your company's hype and satire, were both murdered. Your comments are very offensive, and to a certain extent, it shows that you have a motive to kill them."
"Lu Jingfang and Zhou Jingjing are dead!"
Li Dingshan and Jin Shaoyong's expressions changed.
Bao Xing harrumphed. "What else can we do? Do you think our city's Criminal Investigation Unit is a joke? Do you think we're here just because of a few comments? Now that he's dead, those comments are your motive for killing him. "
Jin Shaoyong shouted, "No, no, we're just helping the show hype up and increase the product's exposure. We never thought of killing anyone, nor would we dare to do such a thing."
Li Dingshan also explained, "Yeah, those comments may sound a little harsh, but it's only to increase the topic and attention. There's no need to kill anyone."
Han Bin touched his chin. "Although I don't know how to create hype, I often surf the internet and know which topics attract attention. I can't think of any topic that would attract more attention than the murder of two female guests. "
"If this news were to spread, the attention of 'Let's Generate Electricity Together' would definitely increase. It would also indirectly increase the exposure of your product, and the purpose of your sponsorship would be achieved."
"That's your motive for killing them."
Li Dingshan's mouth was agape. He did not say a word and only stared at Jin Shaoyong.
Jin Shaoyong was already breaking out in a cold sweat. "Officer Han, I've never thought of doing this. I'm just a worker. No matter how stupid I am, I wouldn't kill someone for a salary of ten thousand yuan. Moreover, I don't have the guts to do it."
Han Bin comforted him. "You don't have to be nervous. The innocent will know their innocence. I'm not saying those things to scare you. It's just that the account has offensive comments about the victims. The police have the responsibility and obligation to investigate it thoroughly. "
"You're right. We will definitely cooperate." Li Dingshan echoed.
Han Bin patted Bao Xing's shoulder. "Manager Li, ever since my colleague watched 'Let's Generate Electricity Together', he is very interested in your company's products. Can you show him around the company and explain your company's production process?"
Li Dingshan hesitated for a moment and glanced at Jin Shaoyong. He then stood up and said, "No problem. Please follow me."
Li Dingshan could tell that Han Bin wanted to talk to Jin Shaoyong alone without him. But what could he do even if he could tell?
After the two left the lounge, Han Bin tapped his carbon pen. "Manager Jin, I'll be asking some routine questions. I hope you can cooperate. The earlier we get to the bottom of this, the earlier we can clear your name. "
"Okay, ask away."
"Have you seen Lu Jingfang?"
Jin Shaoyong answered very simply, "No."
"Have you contacted Lu Jingfang in any way or through any channels?"
"No."
"You have to answer truthfully. Lying will only increase the police's suspicion of you."
"I know. I'm telling the truth."
"Where were you between 9: 30 pm on June 25th and 1: 30 am on the 26th?"
"I was on a business trip."
"Where did you go on a business trip?"
"Spring City. I left on the afternoon of the 24th and came back on the afternoon of the 26th. I went to a product launch. Everyone in the company knows about it."
Han Bin said, "I'm very familiar with Spring City. I went to school there. It's only about two hours by high-speed rail from Spring City to Qin Island. Even if I went there and back, it wouldn't affect my work during the day."
"I went with my colleague. We stayed in the same hotel. He can prove it for me."
"What's your colleague's name? Did you guys stay in one room or two?"
"Li Moran. Two rooms."
Han Bin asked, "You guys don't stay in the same room. How can he prove it for you?"
"I …" Jin Shaoyong was a little anxious. He wiped the sweat off his forehead. "Surveillance. You can check the hotel's surveillance. I actually stayed at the hotel. It's at 103 Red Flag Street in Spring City."
"We'll look into it. If you're lying, we won't be asking questions here next time."
"I'm not lying."
Han Bin changed the topic. "Have you seen Zhou Jingjing?"
"No."
"Have you contacted Zhou Jingjing in any way or through any channels?"
"Absolutely not."
"Have you ever seen or worn a pair of shoes with dog paw prints on the bottom?"
Jin Shaoyong said, "No, I mostly wear formal clothes. I don't even look at weird clothes."
Han Bin stared at him with a sharp gaze. "I'll ask you another question. Think about it carefully before you speak. Does Li Dingshan know about the account? "
Jin Shaoyong swallowed his saliva and rubbed his cheeks with both hands. "Officer Han, I can't answer this question. Can you not make it difficult for me?"
Jin Shaoyong's reaction was a kind of answer in itself.
Han Bin closed his laptop and suddenly asked, "What phone do you use?"
"Apple's. Why?"
"I've been thinking of changing my phone recently. Do you mind if I take a look?"
"This is an old model."
Han Bin smiled. "I like the old model."
Jin Shaoyong was a little troubled. "Can I not let you see it?"
"Yes, of course you can. It's not mandatory." As he spoke, Han Bin's expression became serious.
Jin Shaoyong hesitated for a moment. He looked at his phone and then at Han Bin's expression. No matter how reluctant he was, he still opened his phone and handed it to Han Bin.
Han Bin took the phone and looked at the software on it. "The phone is quite smooth. Not bad."
"Yes, it's fine."
"Is there a headline software on it?"
"Yes, it's on the second page."
Han Bin opened the headline software and looked at the contents: favorites, browsing history, comments, followers, search history, etc. Han Bin searched for Lu Jingfang's account in the list of followers but did not find it.
Han Bin wrote down Jin Shaoyong's headline account name and returned the phone to him.
"Thank you."
"You're welcome." Jin Shaoyong forced a smile. "Are you done with the questioning?"
"Yes, but there's still one more procedure." Han Bin said to Jiang Yang, "Help Manager Shaoyong collect his DNA."
Jin Shaoyong shrunk his neck and said nervously, "Officer Han, I don't think that's necessary. I really haven't seen those two women."
Han Bin smiled. "Since you haven't seen them, what's there to worry about? We're also doing this for work. Please understand."
Jiang Yang walked over and patted Jin Shaoyong on the shoulder. "Manager Jin, open your mouth and relax."
