Chapter 38: Tiger poison, not eating seeds(1/2)
[I want to know, are those pinhole cameras a coincidence, or are they a trap you deliberately set? 】
【Before answering your question, I also have a question to ask you.】
【……】
…
Outside the interrogation room.
Everyone looked at the situation in the interrogation room through the one-way mirror.
The two voices came out clearly from the microphone.
Wang Zhaoping listened to the conversation between the two, shook his head helplessly, and looked at Lin Haitang beside him.
"Lawyer Lin, you were the one who asked Mr. Meng to ask this question, right? But it's useless. Yuan Li is very cunning and won't be fooled easily."
The two voices continued to be heard.
[Is this issue important to you?]
[Well... you can think of me as exploring a very profound philosophy of life, about the dialectical relationship between man and the universe. 】
【Ha! Childish.】
[It seems that communication cannot be achieved through ordinary methods.]
【Now, look into my eyes!
I will say a code word next. After you hear this code word, you must answer any of my questions accurately...]
At first, everyone thought that Meng Lang was trying to induce Yuan Li to admit his criminal intentions, but as they listened, everyone felt a little baffled.
Why are we still discussing the dialectical relationship between man and the universe?
He thinks he is the "Guanzhong Hero", how can he say that he is confused?
A code word?
What about hypnosis?
However, just when everyone was wondering whether Meng Lang had a wrong tendon, they saw Yuan Li's face suddenly changed.
His eyes widened in horror.
【you you……】
[Shh~] Meng Lang raised an index finger and made a silent gesture on his mouth.
This word seemed to have magic power. Yuan Li's face immediately turned stiff and he could no longer say a word.
[Look, my code words are very useful, right? Now, I’m going to start asking.
The first question is, children are cute, right? Just like saplings, so you say... is it particularly cruel and inhumane to attack children?]
Meng Lang's voice was obviously gentle, but it made people feel an inexplicable cold aura.
Illusion?
Unexpectedly, when Yuan Li heard this question, he seemed to see some terrible scene, and his face became even more frightened.
【Yes...no!】
[Great, it seems we have reached a consensus, right? This is a good start.
So now back to my question, when did you start planning to make me a scapegoat?]
Yuan Li's expression changed, as if he was fighting between heaven and man.
But in the end, he finally said dejectedly.
[It was the afternoon when Lin Xiaoyu bumped into you.]
Have you spoken? Really?
Everyone's eyes widened, and they could hardly believe their ears.
[So you were following Lin Xiaoyu from the beginning, right? 】
【Yes.】
【Why are you following her?】
【For...revenge.】
[Okay, although you are avoiding the important and taking the easy, I can understand... So the next question is, if I didn't show up, how were you going to deal with Lin Xiaoyu? 】
【……】
[Xiao Yu is cute, isn’t she? She also likes plants. I just promised her yesterday that I would take her to cut down a Christmas tree during Arbor Day. 】
【……】
After a long silence, Yuan Li finally spoke in a hoarse voice.
[I will knock her unconscious, take her away, and sell her to a human trafficker I met before.
A missing person case will not attract much attention from the police, so... it can also play a role in retaliating against Lin Haitang.
It was only after I discovered that you and Lin Xiaoyu had just met, and coincidentally lived next door to her, that I came up with the idea of murdering someone and setting the blame.
In this way, Lin Haitang will undoubtedly be more stimulated, and my revenge will be more successful.
I chose a rainy night because heavy rain can wash away many clues.
Then I waited until I saw you walking back to the rental house, and it was no longer possible to create an alibi, and then I started to take action, but I didn’t expect...]
Listening to this series of diabolical plans, Lin Haitang was shocked and his whole body was trembling slightly.
Fear filled my heart!
Even on the day Yuan Li was arrested, she never felt so scared.
It was just a vague guess before, but now this guess has become a fact.
And the truth is more cruel than I imagined.
If it weren't for Meng Lang... she couldn't imagine what a depressing future awaited her and Xiao Yu.
Just thinking about that kind of future makes her feel extremely desperate...
[Very good, I’ve finished asking my questions. I’m very satisfied with your answer. Didn’t you just ask me whether those cameras were a coincidence or a trap?
Now...do you still need me to answer you?】
【No...no need...】
Yuan Li seemed to have been drained of all his energy, and slumped on the chair slumped.
Yes! How could there be such a coincidence in the world?
It turns out that everything was planned in advance!
The other party used the same sound as "sh" to remind him that he had long known that the Xu Group was behind him.
This matter is extremely secretive, and it is impossible for outsiders to know except myself and my employer.
It is impossible for him to leak the secret himself, so... there must be something wrong with Xu himself!
A mole leaked his actions in advance!
Apart from this explanation, Yuan Li could not think of the second possibility.
And in this world, that person is probably the only one who knows his plan of action and the name "Yuan Shu"...
…
"Click!" The interrogation room door opened.
Meng Lang walked out with a solemn expression.
He already knew everything he wanted to know, and he didn't want to spend another second with the scumbag inside.
It turns out that in that time and space, Xiao Yu disappeared, and I am afraid that the disappearance case will remain unsolved in the end. No wonder I am completely indifferent in that world.
And that night... I should have been enjoying a false love in the hotel and stayed up all night.
The perfect alibi...
To be continued...
