"Does anyone have any other opinions?"

Lu Chuan glanced at the scene of the case analysis meeting, seeing everyone shaking their heads, he set the tone.

"Alright, let's re-interrogate Liang Jun!"

This time, the interrogation is different from the previous ones, this time we need a strategy.

The interrogation is still led by Wang Zhaokai.

In the High-tech Zone Criminal Investigation Team, the best at preliminary examination is Wang Zhaokai.

Many suspects who can't be taken down can't escape from Wang Zhaokai.

Interrogation room.

Bang!

Wang Zhaokai slammed the interrogation notebook on the table, startling Liang Jun across from him.

"Liang Jun, you're not being honest!"

Wang Zhaokai got straight to the point, speaking heavily.

"Do you know what I have in my hand? This is the interrogation record of Zhang Baobao."

Liang Jun asked, "Did he... confess?"

Confess?

"Liang Jun, even now you're not telling the truth."

Wang Zhaokai stood up and walked towards the other party.

The strategy and method for interrogating Liang Jun this time had just been analyzed and studied with Lu Chuan.

It's about directly exposing Liang Jun's lies and reconstructing the entire crime process.

"I... I'm not lying; it was Zhang Baobao who killed the person!"

Wang Zhaokai sneered, "You say Zhang Baobao killed her? Did you see him strangling Hu Huihui?"

"I... although I didn't see it with my own eyes, but at that time he pulled Hu Huihui into the cornfield, I saw it, and when I went in after he came out, the person was dead. Who else could it be?"

Liang Jun spoke quickly, as if he had memorized it many times.

Wang Zhaokai walked beside him, "Liang Jun, you may not know that Hu Huihui and Zhang Baobao already knew each other, and when Hu Huihui went south to buy clothes, she borrowed money from Zhang Baobao because she didn't have enough."

"Although there's no IOU, we learned that Zhang Baobao did give Hu Huihui 15,000 yuan from those who worked in the arcade back then."

"On the day Zhang Baobao went to Beihong Village for business, he met Hu Huihui on the road, who proposed to have a relationship to settle her debt."

"Hu Huihui was somewhat reluctant, but 15,000 yuan is no small amount, she half-heartedly went into the cornfield with Zhang Baobao."

"And you saw all of this."

While speaking, Wang Zhaokai carefully observed Liang Jun's facial reactions.

"Hu Huihui is known as the village flower in your village, attractive and skilled, all the young people like you who are around the same age wanted to marry her, but in reality, she didn't care for any of you, right?"

Liang Jun's face became somewhat unnatural.

Wang Zhaokai continued his attack, "But your family is different from other young people's families, yours is the poorest, others can at least propose marriage, even if they were refused, but your family didn't even have the qualification to do so."

At this point, Wang Zhaokai paused, Liang Jun's face was already pale."

"In your eyes, Hu Huihui was like a goddess, but you saw her going into the cornfield with that scumbag Zhang Baobao."

"You should have thought at that time, why could Zhang Baobao, such a scumbag, be with Hu Huihui while you couldn't."

Wang Zhaokai's voice grew sharper, "So when Zhang Baobao left the cornfield, you went back in, attempting to have relations with Hu Huihui, correct?"

"But compared to Zhang Baobao, Liang Huihui chose him because he had money, while you were just a pauper, a farm laborer, why would she be with you?"

"Hu Huihui's words provoked you, so you killed her in anger!"

"Isn't that right!"

Ah!

Liang Jun suddenly shouted.

"Yes! I killed her! So what?"

At this moment, Liang Jun's eyes were blood-red, "She's a whore!"

"Pretending to be pure in the village, but in the end, she's with those rich people in the cornfield!"

In truth, what Wang Zhaokai said was close to the truth.

After Zhang Baobao left back then, Hu Huihui was straightening her clothes in the cornfield when she suddenly saw Liang Jun come in.

From the first glance, Hu Huihui knew what Liang Jun intended.

But why him, a laborer?

"She actually said she'd rather be with a dog than me!"

"Haha, in her eyes, I'm even worse than a dog!"

The rest of the story is much like what Liang Jun confessed earlier.

The two got into a verbal conflict, and in a rage, Liang Jun strangled her and then desecrated her corpse.

Fearful of being discovered, he waited until nightfall to dispose of the corpse.

This interrogation didn't take long, less than half an hour and it was over.

The remaining step was for him to sign and press his fingerprints.

Tomorrow morning the team would take him to identify the scene, essentially wrapping up this case.

Yet, Liang Jun's actions made everyone feel he was rather interesting.

He tried to pin the murder on Zhang Baobao, so during the interrogation, he spoke half-truths about the situation.

Luckily, there was a financial dispute between Zhang Baobao and Hu Huihui.

This significantly weakened Zhang Baobao's motive to kill Hu Huihui.

Otherwise, Zhang Baobao did indeed appear at the crime scene, so did Liang Jun, making it hard to determine who killed Hu Huihui.

As for Zhang Baobao, naturally he was released without charges.

Although he was indirectly related to Hu Huihui's murder, there was no direct cause and effect.

Of course, in general reasoning, Zhang Baobao and Hu Huihui having a relationship is the antecedent.

If they hadn't gone into the cornfield, Liang Jun naturally wouldn't have seen Hu Huihui undressed.

No lustful intentions, hence no murder to cover it up.

And Old Liang's family couldn't stay in the area.

With a murderer in the family who killed a fellow villager, no one in the community would associate with such a household.

In fact, for several days people have secretly thrown rotten eggs or cabbage stems at their doorstep.

Liang Jun's child was also ostracized by other kids, labeled as the son of a murderer.

To Lu Chuan, this was just one of many cases he had handled in the past and would handle in the future.

But to Beihong Village, the impact of this case might last far more than 10 or 20 years.

Moreover, Hu Huihui had been missing for ten years.

Yet the murderer was right in the same village.

Additionally, the case has had significant impacts, considering the bones were discovered under the foundation while building the road.

It was very newsworthy, with many videos circulating online.

But time smooths over everything.

For more than half a month afterward, the Criminal Investigation Team was relatively idle.

Without any major cases, Lu Chuan spent his days in meetings.

Until the provincial serious crime squad called, there was another big case!
