Chapter 1723: Logical Reasoning

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation | Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“But these can provide us with sinformation.” Lin Yi said.

“Firstly, this accomplice knows both Song Deyuan and Zhang Hao.”

“Secondly, when Du Juan died, Zhang Hao went to Aomen. In that case, the murder in the secret room must have been set up by that accomplice.”

“Thirdly, we’ve already checked Du Juan’s house. There are no signs of forced entry. This means that the other party might have used a key to enter…”

With that, Lin Yi’s gaze swept across the four of them one by one and continued.

“That murderer might have a very good relationship with Du Juan!”

The four of them fell into deep thought. Soon, Li Xianghui, Zhang Hui, and Gao Mingjun looked at Gu Yiran.

Because the people around Du Juan were brought back by her and Lin Yi for interrogation, the two of them knew this better than anyone else.

Gu Yiran was also thinking hard. Then, she understood and looked at Lin Yi!

“Du Juan’s cousin, Wang Jia!”

“That’s right!” Lin Yi said.

“The two of them should have a good relationship. Otherwise, Du Juan wouldn’t have arranged a job for her in Zhonghai. It’s very likely that she has the key to Du Juan’s house!”

“Furthermore, as you all have seen her looks and figure, with Song Deyuan’s lecherous personality, he would not let her go. This would have brought her even closer to Song Deyuan!”

“That’s not true.” Gu Yiran said.

“Song Deyuan already has a relationship with Du Juan. Why would he look for Wang Jia?”

The four men in the office looked at Gu Yiran strangely, making her feel uncomfortable.

“Why are you looking atlike that?”

“Don’t you know about the ‘sisters duo’ setup?” Lin Yi said. “If you’re not familiar, you could look it up on Baidu.”

“Um…”

Gu Yiran was stunned for a moment. She didn’t know it, but after Lin Yi said that, she understood.

Subconsciously, Gu Yiran glanced at Li Xianghui and the other two.

“Don’t tellthe three of you know ot too?”

In order to hide their embarrassment, the three of them looked away to avoid Gu Yiran’s question.

“I won’t talk about the two of them. Brother Li, how did you know?”

“Ai, ai, ai, ai, as a public servant of the people, you have to be responsible for what you say. What do you mean by ‘I won’t say anything about the two of them’?” Gao Mingjun said.

“No matter how gentlemanly your Brother Li is, he’s still a man.”

“Alright, we are going off-topic. Let’s talk about what happened just now,” Li Xianghui looked at Lin Yi and said.

“During our interrogation of Wang Jia, she provided a very important testimony that at the time, neither we nor probably she herself paid much attention to,” Lin Yi said.

“She mentioned that she couldn’t make it in Yanjing anymore, and then through Du Juan, she moved to Zhonghai. However, the cost of living in Zhonghai is not much different from Yanjing, but her clothes and appearance don’t look cheap, although not branded either. They don’t seem affordable on a regular salary, which suggests that her money might have cfrom Zhang Hao and Song Deyuan.”

“Based on this, regardless of where her money cfrom, it’s enough to be considered a significant lead for further investigation!”

“But she was very calm during the interrogation. If she really did such a thing, she wouldn’t be so calm.” Gu Yiran said.

“She used to be an extra. She’d definitely be better than ordinary people when it comes to acting,” Lin Yi said.

“As for the two of us, we only investigated her as an ordinary person and ignored many details. This is very likely the key to the problem!”

Lin Yi changed his posture and continued.

“I think the focus of the next investigation should be on the relationship between Wang Jia, Zhang Hao, and Song Deyuan.”

“Secondly, we can send people to investigate the neighborhood and see if anyone saw Wang Jia on the day Du Juan died, or if she was in a hurry and acted strangely.”

“Finally, Wang Jia’s fingerprints might be left on the gas pipe and doorknob of Du Juan’s house. This is also the focus of the next step of forensics investigation.”

Li Xianghui nodded. “I’ve thought of these things too, but Wang Jia had an alibi when Du Juan died. She couldn’t have done such a thing.”

“So, I have a bold guess.” Lin Yi pondered for a moment and said.

“There may be other accomplices!”

“This doesn’t make sense,” Li Xianghui said.

“In a case like this, if you have too many accomplices, you’ll easily expose yourself. With the criminal methods the murderer has shown so far, such a slip-up can’t happen.”

“But it’s very likely that this accomplice helped the murderer complete the murder case unknowingly.”

“What are you suggesting?”

“Come, I’ll do an experiment with you.”

Lin Yi found a roll of tape from the drawer and said to Gu Yiran,

“Roll up your sleeves.”

“What are you doing?”

Gu Yiran asked suspiciously, her eyes guarded.

“Don’t worry. Even if you strip naked, I won’t have any evil thoughts about you. Just do as I say.”

Gu Yiran rolled her eyes at Lin Yi and rolled up her sleeves.

Lin Yi stuck transparent tape to Gu Yiran’s arm and then attached the other end of the tape to the window handle, gently pushing the window open.

Due to the pull of the tape, Gu Yiran’s arm was lifted.

“I get it now!”

“You mean, the murderer tied one end of a fishing line to a certain spot and used the sliding window to pull on the tape that was sealing the gas pipe!”

“Yes!” LinYi said.

“I’ve thought of several possibilities. First, there might be a third helper who, unknowingly, controlled the fishing line.”

“Secondly, they could achieve this through drones or other smart devices!

“Therefore, our next step is to conduct a strict investigation of Du Juan’s neighborhood. I think we will find clues once we do that!”

“Hu…”

Everyone heaved a sigh of relief. Li Xianghui said, “I think what Lin Yi said makes sense. Does anyone have any doubts?”

“No!”

“Then let’s follow this line of thought and look for clues.” Li Xianghui said,

“Little Zhang, Little Gao, the two of you are in charge of the investigation. Little Yi, Little Gu, the three of us are in charge of interrogating Zhang Hao and Wang Jia.”

“No problem.”

As he spoke, Lin Yi walked to Gu Yiran’s side and prepared to remove the tape for her.

Seeing this, Gu Yiran did not do anything else.

She felt like Lin Yi, when he got serious, was actually quite decent. Although he’s a bit lax in private, his attitude towards work was impeccable.

At the very least, he was quite thoughtful.

Hiss…

When Gu Yiran was not paying attention, Lin Yi ripped off the tape!
