"Don't get too worked up. We're not suspecting you, but everyone related to the case. We're asking these questions to prove your innocence," Han Bin comforted her.
Zhang Li didn't appreciate it. "I don't need you to prove it. I'm innocent. I love Bochen, and he loves me too. We really love each other. How could I kill him? What are you guys thinking? "
"Ms. Zhang, calm down." Han Bin waved his hand and gestured for her to sit down. "The police investigate cases based on evidence. We're not targeting anyone. I hope you can understand."
"Evidence?" Zhang Li sneered. "Alright then. Tell me, what evidence do you have to prove that I'm related to Bochen's death? I'm an innocent person. How did I become a murderer in your eyes? "
Han Bin raised an eyebrow. "You said that you love Song Bochen?"
Zhang Li said confidently, "Yes."
Han Bin asked, "Does Song Bochen love you?"
Zhang Li didn't hesitate. "Of course. He definitely loves me! Otherwise, he wouldn't be with me under such great pressure. You don't understand our relationship at all. You don't know how difficult it is for us to be together. "
Han Bin stared at her expression. "But according to our sources, Song Bochen has already wanted to break up with you. I don't believe you didn't notice it at all."
Zhang Li's mouth twitched. After a long silence, she said, "Yes, I felt it. Although he didn't say it explicitly … he's indeed a little different from before."
"However, I believe that he loves me, and he wants to be with me. Maybe his family is giving him too much pressure. But I still believe that he will definitely choose me … "
Han Bin wrung his hands together. "But according to Song Bochen's family, he's already dating someone else. Their relationship has been confirmed, and he's considering how to break up with you. But at this time, something happened to him. "
Zhang Li's eyes were red. "Nonsense. He wouldn't do that to me. You're lying. "
Han Bin spread his hands. "Do I have to lie?"
Zhang Li sighed and lowered her head in silence.
Han Bin had also been observing her, trying to find some clues from her expression.
However, judging from the current situation, Zhang Li's emotions were more in line with the current situation.
Zhang Li was silent for a long time. She rubbed her eyes and said, "Captain Han, you guys are just suspecting that I killed Bo Chen?"
"That day, you and Song Bochen went to the amusement park together. You were also the one who suggested playing in the hot air balloon, but after you bought the ticket, you didn't want to play and only let Song Bochen get on the hot air balloon. After that, the hot air balloon crashed. Objectively speaking, you do have a certain degree of suspicion. " Han Bin deliberated for a while and continued, "Also, Song Bochen has a new girlfriend and is considering breaking up with you. From a subjective point of view, you have a motive."
"I … I've been wrongly accused. How could I kill someone? I really love him, and it's because I love him that I broke up with Song Bohui. I'm not a shameless woman, and I know it's not good to do this, but why am I still with him? Because I love him! "Zhang Li stood up abruptly, showing that she was very excited.
"What evidence do you have? What right do you have to say that about me?!"
Han Bin comforted, "Miss Zhang, don't be agitated. We took the initiative to explain the situation, and we also hope that you can give us a reasonable explanation to clear your suspicion."
"What suspicion do I have? Is it wrong to love someone? I didn't do anything wrong. There's nothing subjective or objective. I didn't even know that he was with other women. Yes, I felt that he was distancing himself from me recently, but I thought that his family was giving him too much pressure. I always wanted to do better and let him be as determined as I am. I never thought of breaking up with him. I have always been working hard. " Zhang Li sobbed, "I didn't expect that going to the amusement park would be our last …"
Han Bin handed her a few tissues.
Zhang Li wiped her eyes, "You may think that I'm a bad woman, but I've never hurt anyone. I just want to be with the person I love. Don't tell me that I don't love Song Bohui anymore and want to spend the rest of my life with him?"
"I also know that Song Bohui might not have said anything good about me, and I don't blame him. After all, I was the one who broke up with him and hurt his heart."
"But I really didn't hurt Bochen. I really didn't."
Han Bin was silent for a moment. Zhang Li's words couldn't completely clear her suspicion.
But at the same time, there was no direct evidence to prove that Zhang Li was involved in the case.
Han Bin asked the question he wanted to ask, and there was no reason to keep her at the police station. "Miss Zhang, the statement will end here for now. Thank you for your cooperation."
Zhang Li stood up and said with a solemn expression, "I really didn't hurt Bochen. Don't waste time on me. Go catch the real murderer."
After saying that, Zhang Li left the office.
Tian Li walked her to the door, and after returning to the office, she said, "If what Zhang Li said is true, then her feelings for Song Bochen are very deep."
Zhao Ming shook his head, "I don't really trust this woman."
"When has your intuition ever been accurate?" Tian Li snorted and turned to look at Han Bin, "Captain Han, what do you think?"
Han Bin didn't see any obvious abnormalities. "Check the surveillance of Rongding Garden District and see if she went to Rongding Garden District in September. If she did, then it proves that she's lying."
"Yes, sir," everyone answered.
After saying that, Han Bin glanced at the watch on the wall, "Let's check it tomorrow. Everyone, go back and rest early today. "
…
The next morning.
Near Xiqing Road.
Li Hui didn't go to the police station, but went directly to Xiqing Road, accompanied by Sun Xiaopeng and the local police station.
The purpose of Li Hui's visit was to find the whereabouts of 'Brother Zhao'.
Of course, no one knew whether this person's surname was Zhao or not. It was more of a name.
The police currently didn't know his real name, but some of his characteristics. He was about 50 years old, with a scar between his thumb and index finger. In 17 years, he called himself Brother Zhao and lived near Xiqing Road.
The more important clue was that the police had obtained a portrait of him.
Li Hui rushed here early in the morning to investigate the whereabouts of this' Brother Zhao '.
This person was very important. It was very likely that he sold the suspect's phone number to 'The Clown'. As long as they found him, there was a chance to trace the Clown's identity.
Xiqing Road wasn't big, but it wasn't small either. There were seven or eight residential areas around it. Li Hui divided his investigation into two methods. The first method was to check the surveillance of the surrounding residential areas to see if he could find traces of the suspect 'Brother Zhao'.
The second method was to take 'Brother Zhao's' portrait and visit the area.
Li Hui and Sun Xiaopeng split up. Li Hui led the police to visit the area, while Sun Xiaopeng led the police to collect the surveillance footage.
Although it seemed that the surveillance footage was more accurate, Li Hui felt that the possibility of the surveillance footage finding him was not high. It would be more efficient to visit the area.
The reason why he came to this conclusion was that 'Brother Zhao' had lived in the area for 17 years. Now that more than three years had passed, it was very likely that he had moved to another place of residence. If he didn't live here anymore, how could the surveillance footage find him?
However, visiting the area was different. A human's memory might not be as accurate as the surveillance footage, but a human's brain was more flexible. As long as they had seen 'Brother Zhao' before, even if he had left, they would still be able to recognize his portrait.
The first person Li Hui asked was the auntie selling pancakes. As for the reason why he chose her as the first person to visit … it was because he hadn't had breakfast yet.
The auntie selling pancakes was in her fifties with short hair. She glanced at Li Hui. "What kind of noodles do you want?"
"Xiaomi's."
"How many eggs?"
Li Hui swallowed a mouthful of saliva. "One is enough. I want chopped green onions and coriander. Don't add too much chili. "
The auntie selling pancakes quickly spread out the pancakes.
Li Hui stood at the side and suddenly thought of something. This auntie was selling pancakes nearby and pancakes were a type of breakfast that many people would eat. Perhaps' Brother Zhao 'had also come here for breakfast.
Li Hui took out the portrait. "Auntie, do you know this person?"
The auntie selling pancakes glanced at him and asked curiously, "Young man, your drawing is not bad. Are you an artist?"
Li Hui did not know whether to laugh or cry. "Auntie, I'm a police officer. This is a sketch of a suspect. He lives nearby and I'd like you to help me identify him."
"Oh." The auntie selling pancakes revealed a look of understanding. Then, she glanced at it again and revealed a thoughtful expression.
"Auntie, have you seen this person before?"
The auntie selling pancakes replied, "He looks familiar. He should have come here to eat pancakes before. But he hasn't been here for a while. "
Li Hui thought that it was reliable. "Auntie, do you know him? Do you know where he lives? "
The auntie selling pancakes skillfully flipped them over and asked in a seemingly casual manner, "Young man, where do you live?"
Due to the special nature of his profession, Li Hui was more or less on guard. He smiled and said, "Auntie, why are you asking this?"
The auntie also smiled. "Yeah, I'm just a pancake seller. Why are you asking this?"
Li Hui was speechless.
