Chapter 140 - 140 Investigation
140 Investigation
He handed the notebook in his hand to Shen Yin and explained, “I watched the surveillance footage all night and finally found something. This Wang Gang actually goes to a restaurant not far from Tan Li’s house every week.”
Shen Yin frowned and asked, “Did the surveillance cameras capture him entering Tan Li’s neighborhood?”
“No.” Zou Sheng shook his head regretfully. “Although the old building where her family lives is not as dilapidated as the crime scene, there are no surveillance cameras there. Otherwise, we could directly list Wang Gang as a suspect.”
Shen Yin finished the hot water in the cup and suddenly thought of something. She blinked and asked, “Is this Wang Gang married?”
“Yes.” Zou Sheng said affirmatively, “Captain even asked us to go to Wang Gang’s house to take a look today.”
Shen Yin raised an eyebrow. “Don’t you need to rest?”
Zou Sheng winked playfully. “No need. The coffee will keep me awake! I can still continue fighting criminals!”
Shen Yin was amused by his behavior, but jokes aside, health was still very important.
She looked at the time and said softly, “Let’s go and have breakfast first. When it’s time, we’ll go to Wang Gang’s house to investigate.”
“Sure!” Zou Sheng stood up happily. On the way, he muttered to himself with a smile, “Aiya, if Little Meng finds out that I’m eating alone with you, I wonder how jealous he will be!”
Shen Yin rolled her eyes at him and asked curiously, “Where are Meng Heng and Captain?”
“They went to see the leader.” Zou Sheng was a little dejected when he said this. “Although we kept this matter a secret, someone still leaked it. Now, all kinds of rumors are spreading on the Internet. The leader of the bureau summoned them to be reprimanded. I was going to go too, but the captain asked me to continue investigating the case, so I stayed.”
Shen Yin sighed and comforted him. “As long as we solve the case, the online rumors will naturally die down.”
She looked at the depressed young man and handed him a big meat bun with a smile. She imitated him and said, “Eat. You can only continue fighting the criminals on a full stomach!”
When Shen Yin and Zou Sheng had eaten, they drove to Wang Gang’s house using the address they had found online.
Wang Gang’s family was obviously much better off than Tan Li’s. The two of them lived in a three-hundred-square-meter house with a four-year-old daughter.
When Wang Gang’s wife heard that the police were looking for her, she was so frightened that she immediately tried to call Wang Gang, who was working at school.
Shen Yin pressed down on her hand that was about to make the call. With a smile on her face, she comforted her softly, “Madam Wang, we just want to understand the situation. Don’t be alarmed.”
Madam Wang immediately put away her cell phone obediently and invited them to sit in the living room. She poured them a cup of hot tea and asked carefully, “What do you want to know?”
Shen Yin carefully observed her body language, and said, “Your husband is just the dean of Experimental Elementary School. It’s quite surprising that he can buy such a big house in such a good location.”
Madam Wang was clearly nervous. She rubbed her hands and lowered her head uneasily to explain, “My husband’s family is rich. His family gave him a lot of money for this house.”
“Madam Wang, I told you that you don’t have to be so nervous.” Shen Yin smiled kindly. “We didn’t come to ask if your husband if involved in any corruption or bribery. We just want to understand some basic things.”
Madam Wang felt that the police had something on her, so she did not dare to hide anything. She hurriedly nodded helplessly. “Ask me anything you want. I’ll definitely tell you everything I know.”
“That’s good.” Shen Yin smiled and looked at the ring on her finger. “How many years have you been married to your husband?”
“We’ve been married for six years.” At the mention of this, Madam Wang smiled sweetly. In her opinion, her husband was a model husband. Not only was he meticulous and considerate, after so many years, he had never insisted that she get a job.
Shen Yin nodded and continued to ask, “How much do you know about your husband’s social circle?”
Madam Wang shook her head uncertainly. “He doesn’t usually bring me to his social gatherings. He said that it’s just a group of men drinking together. It’s boring for me to be there when I’m the only woman and I might as well stay home and watch television.”
Shen Yin coughed softly and asked, “So, you don’t know that your husband often goes to Rongsheng Restaurant to eat with others?”
Rongsheng Restaurant?
Madam Wang suddenly frowned and subconsciously muttered the name of this restaurant. She seemed to have thought of something and looked up at Shen Yin firmly. “Yes, that’s the restaurant. My husband goes to this restaurant at least once a week. When I asked him, he said that the food in this restaurant is delicious. I was worried that he was up to no good, so I went to the restaurant to investigate once.”
Shen Yin raised her eyebrows and asked, “And? What did you find out?”
Madam Wang relaxed and smiled. “He’s just going there to eat with his friends.”
