CHAPTER 193: CHAPTER 148: JIANG AN’S BOLD GUESS

Then, Li Jian said, "Let’s hear it!"

Xia Jun said, "Officers, I really didn’t kill her."

"Last month, my wife found out I was having an affair. She was very angry and forced me to break up."

"At that time, I verbally agreed not to contact Wu Yan, but privately I still kept in touch with her."

"Two weeks ago, my wife discovered that I was still involved and we had a huge fight, so I temporarily stopped contacting her."

"It’s only been a week, how could she be dead already?"

Li Jian asked in a deep voice, "Where were you four days ago? What were you doing?"

"Four days ago?"

"If I remember correctly, I should have been at the pet shop during the day and at home with my wife at night."

"You didn’t go out all night?"

"Exactly! I was at home at night."

"If you don’t believe me, you can check the surveillance in the community."

"Community surveillance?"

Li Jian smiled slightly and said, "The timing of your crime was very clever, because the community surveillance broke down a week ago."

Chen He also said, "Did you just happen to choose to go out and kill when the surveillance was broken?"

Upon hearing this, the man defended himself, saying, "How could that be? I didn’t know the community surveillance was broken."

"Didn’t know?"

"When the surveillance broke, the property company specifically notified the owners’ group in the community to lock doors and windows and prevent thieves from entering."

"Didn’t you receive this information?"

"I don’t know, I’m not in the owners’ group."

"My wife is in the owners’ group, she didn’t tell me about this."

"Arguing! Keep arguing!"

"I really didn’t kill her, you must clear my name."

At this moment, Jiang An, Zhang Yean, and Wan stood outside the one-way glass of the interrogation room.

Zhang Yean said, "Why do I feel like this man looks innocent?"

"When he saw Wu Yan’s photo, there was no trace of tension on his face."

Wan also said, "Junior sister, you can’t judge a book by its cover."

"Business people are very calculating."

"Even if he’s calculative, he showed no reaction when he saw Wu Yan’s photo."

"And when he heard about Wu Yan’s death, his shocked expression didn’t seem fake."

Wan clicked his tongue, "Big shots are very good at disguising, we shouldn’t be fooled by him."

"Currently, he’s the one with the strongest motive, and he also had the opportunity."

Zhang Yean thought for a while and nodded.

"According to the estimated time of death, if she died soon after a late-night snack, then the person entering Wu Yan’s house late at night had to be someone she knew."

"From a woman’s perspective, if a stranger knocks at night, I would look through the peephole; unless it’s someone familiar, I wouldn’t easily open the door."

Wan said, "I told you this guy is very suspicious."

"We’re not in a rush, this is just the beginning."

"Work on his temperament, and he’ll probably confess soon."

Meanwhile, Jiang An was closely observing the interrogation.

His brain was working fast too.

When Xia Jun saw Wu Yan’s photo, he didn’t show even the slightest tension.

However, from the motive and opportunity, his suspicion was indeed very high.

Could it be that he really didn’t commit the murder?

Could the killer be someone else?

Inside the interrogation room, Li Jian picked up Huang Bing’s photo and walked over.

"You know this person, right?"

"He’s Wu Yan’s gym trainer and also Wuyan’s lover."

As soon as Xia Jun saw the photo, his fists clenched tightly, and his face was full of anger.

"I treated her so well, yet she cheated."

"You’re impressive, taking both of them out at once."

"What do you mean?"

The man raised his head again, showing fear.

"You killed him too."

"No, I didn’t kill anyone."

"Stop pretending here, confess honestly."

"Don’t argue anymore."

"Your actions just now said it all; you are the murderer, you had the motive."

"Moreover, as a vet at a pet shop, you understand medication effects."

Xia Jun looked up and said, "I really don’t know what you’re talking about?"

"Familiar with acetylcholine?"

At this point, the man slightly moved his leg under the stool.

This subtle movement was precisely caught by Li Jian.

"Confession leads to leniency, resistance leads to severity."

"Stop making futile struggles."

"Even if you say nothing, we can still put you away."

"Officers, I really didn’t kill anyone."

"You’re wronging me."

Li Jian said in a deep voice, "You’re smart, murdering and then disguising it as a traffic accident."

"Did you think we’d be unable to find out if disguised as a traffic accident?"

"We detectives don’t eat for nothing!"

As soon as this sentence was finished, the man leaned back slightly.

Li Jian pressed further, "You killed them on muddy ground, your shoe soles should still have mud, right?"

Upon hearing this, the man looked up and stared at Li Jian.

Li Jian continued, "Did I guess right?"

"Although you’ve committed murder, if you provide significant information as a tip-off, you might save yourself."

After a long silence, Xia Jun suddenly said, "I have information."

"I didn’t kill them, I just dumped the bodies on the road."

Xia Jun was very agitated, "It was my wife who killed this man."

Upon hearing this, Li Jian and Chen He were instantly stunned.

In all their years of interrogation, it was the first time they’d heard someone report their wife for murder.

However, Li Jian remained composed.

He asked in a deep voice, "Tell us about her murder process."
