Chapter 232 - 232 Interrogation
232 Interrogation
She was already dead, so there was not much point in dwelling on this. However, Shen Yin still looked at Zhang Nan with pity in her eyes.
She did not pity Zhang Nan for losing his girlfriend, but she pitied Zhao Lu for meeting a lousy man. Right from the start of the case, none of the people who were related to Zhao Lu had shown any grief at her tragic death. They were more worried about their own situation and fearful of the corpse of an acquaintance.
She had always been able to maintain her cool when working on a case, but now she suddenly burned with anger.
She ignored Wu Zheng, who was trying to restrain her, and walked in front of Zhang Nan. Her ferocious eyes were filled with disgust. She deliberately shouted at the top of her lungs, “Yes, that was precisely why Zhao Lu asked you for help! But what about you? You were with another girl behind her back and missed the last chance to save Zhao Lu. If it weren’t for you, Zhao Lu wouldn’t have known Dong Chang. Perhaps she wouldn’t have had to die at all. A flirtatious scumbag like you doesn’t deserve such a good girl!”
“Stop it.” Zhang Nan covered his ears in fear. His wide eyes were filled with terror. “Please, stop. I’m very scared. I’m really scared. Will Zhao Lu seek for revenge? Will she harm me?”
“Calm down. Zhao Lu is already dead.” Wu Zheng frowned and stood between Shen Yin and Zhang Nan. When he looked at Shen Yin, he sighed slightly and subconsciously softened his voice. “Let’s go back to the police station first. Zou Sheng and the others are still waiting for us.”
“Okay.” Shen Yin lowered her eyes and regained her calm. She raised her index finger and pointed at Zhang Nan before turning and walking out of the room.
When Wu Zheng and Shen Yin returned to the police station, Meng Heng happened to be bringing Dong Chang into the interrogation room.
When he saw that they had returned, he wiped the sweat off his forehead and took a deep breath. “Boss, Sister, we’ve brought her back. Should we start the interrogation now?”
Wu Zheng did not answer his question. Instead, he looked at Shen Yin and waited for her opinion.
This case had been solved so quickly thanks to Shen Yin’s quick thinking. Even the captain of the criminal branch, Wu Zheng, who had always been a man of his world, had started to rely on her thinking skills.
Shen Yin shook her head gently and said, “There’s no hurry. Give me a strand of his hair. I’ll take it for testing first. We’ll talk after the comparison results are out.”
“Okay.” Meng Heng nodded and hurriedly walked into the interrogation room to complete the task assigned by Shen Yin.
The DNA comparison results came out very quickly, but the final results surprised everyone.
In Team Three’s office, Shen Yin said in a solemn voice, “The DNA comparison results show that Dong Chang and the murderer are father and son. In other words, the murderer is Dong Chang’s biological father.”
“That’s impossible!” Zou Sheng took the report in shock. After reading it carefully from beginning to end, he took out his tablet in disbelief and investigated Dong Chang’s father, Dong Heng.
“How is that possible?” Wu Zheng was also confused. They thought that the case was solved, but now there was a major plot twist.
If the murderer was really Dong Chang’s father, then their previous deductions were wrong.
Without the details of the case, even if there was evidence to prove that Dong Heng was the murderer, there was no way to close the case.
Their top priority now was to figure out Dong Heng’s location and his motive.
In the interrogation room, Dong Chang lowered his head so that the police officers in the surveillance room could not see his expression. However, he was inwardly overjoyed. He could barely suppress the smile on his face.
Before he could enjoy the moment properly, the steel door of the interrogation room suddenly swung open.
Dong Chang looked up and his gentle gaze landed on Shen Yin. The light in his eyes suddenly grew brighter.
He could not help but smile. “Miss Police, you look a lot like a girl I just met.”
When Wu Zheng heard this, he immediately stopped in his tracks. Only then did he remember that when Zhao Lu’s case happened, Shen Yin had said that she looked very much like Shen Luo. He instantly felt his blood run cold.
He quickly advised in a low voice, “Why don’t you leave first? I’m afraid you’ll be in danger.”
“No.” Shen Yin sat calmly in the interrogation seat and gestured for Wu Zheng to sit down as well. “Don’t panic. Let’s interrogate him first.”
Dong Chang stared at the bold policewoman in front of him with interest. He pointed at Wu Zheng with a smile and said, “This police officer seems to be very afraid of me. Actually, you don’t have to be afraid of me at all. I’m just a law-abiding citizen. By the way, you asked another police officer to take my hair just now. You wanted to test my DNA, right? Then I believe you’ve already proven my innocence.”
“Don’t be in a hurry to say anything. Let’s take it one step at a time.” Shen Yin crossed her hands and looked at Dong Chang calmly with her beautiful eyes. She said indifferently, “Let’s have a chat first. Where were you between 8:30 p.m. and 11 p.m. last night? What were you doing? Who can vouch for you?”
