The husband died under unnatural circumstances, and to be murdered in such a horrific manner caused an incredibly great trauma to Wang i's heart.
"I know you're very sorrowful now, and I can't personally experience the pain of losing a husband, but what I'm about to say, I hope you'll listen carefully."
"Hmm."
"We need to track down the murderer of your husband, because he still holds four other hostages, and their fates are unclear. No matter what, I will bring him to justice and give you an explanation. Please trust our police force."
"Alright."
Trembling all over, Wang i could only utter these two words, then looked determinedly at Luo Fei.
There's no ti to grieve now; cooperating with the work at hand is what she, as a wife, should do.
"Your husband was a lecturer at the University of Electronic Science and Technology. I want to know if he had any unusual conflicts or disputes with any outsiders."
"None of that... Officer, I can assure you."
Wang i's gaze was very determined as she spoke.
In her view, her husband was always kind to others and never made things difficult for students while lecturing, wholeheartedly dedicated to his teachings.
Though the courses were sowhat dull, he always put in his best effort to teach the students.
This was rare and comndable!
It could be seen from the awards displayed at ho and the certificates presented by the school.
Even when he joined the university, Qiao Yuanlong excelled in his teaching duties.
Luo Fei followed Wang i to Qiao Yuanlong's desk, looking at the items placed on it. Luo Fei grew increasingly puzzled about soone who, at first glance, seed quite ordinary.
But just by looking at the scene before him, one could feel Qiao Yuanlong's character.
"Even if your husband was a good person, could it be that no one was against him at school?"
"Or perhaps there were inevitable conflicts of interest causing a rift between parties, of which Qiao Yuanlong himself was unaware?"
"That, I'm not too sure about..."
Suddenly, Luo Fei noticed two striking group photos on the wall; they were photos of Qiao Yuanlong with others.
And they seed very intimate, standing closely with four other people. It was clear their relationship was very good, and these two group photos caught Luo Fei's attention.
Noticing his gaze, Wang i began to explain their background.
"These are photos of our old Qiao with a few other teachers from the school. They usually have a good relationship, frequenting during festivals and holidays, so they often act together."
"These were taken during past academic exchanges and when they visited other schools."
Looking at the photos before him, Luo Fei recalled his previous understanding.
Maybe those hostages all know each other!
Perhaps... all five of them are mbers in the photos, as the number matches; this could be a direction for the investigation.
No, solving a case cannot rely on gambling; there must be real evidence.
"Ms. Wang, does Qiao Yuanlong's social circle primarily revolve around the school, or does he have close friends outside as well?"
"I've never heard our old Qiao ntion that."
Wang i shook her head.
"Our old Qiao, though a teacher, had little interest in so irrelevant socializing or making other acquaintances out of thin air, preferring to maintain his circle and that's it."
Hearing her say this, Luo Fei's eyes grew more determined.
The next direction of the investigation could be confird.
"Alright, that's it. We're going to his place of teaching, thanks for your cooperation today."
"We're truly sorry about Qiao Yuanlong's situation."
"The days ahead will be difficult for you, as the burden of the family falls on you, along with issues from the parents and children. If you need help..."
"No need."
Wang i raised her head, her eyes brimming with tears, but she still forced a smile more dreadful than crying.
"Officer, leave this matter to . I will settle things with the elders and children, hoping you can catch the culprit and give justice to our old Qiao."
Luo Fei nodded solemnly upon hearing her words.
He rarely made promises to others, but this matter touched his reverse scale; provoking the police and declaring war against them was undeniably unforgivable!
Therefore, this ti, he must bring the perpetrator to justice and impose severe punishnt.
After saying goodbye to the family, Luo Fei and Lin Jie stepped out.
At the mont the door closed, Lin Jie felt sowhat relieved, leaning against the side with a long exhale.
He even felt his back slightly sweating.
While sitting in the living room earlier, Qiao Yuanlong's parents kept asking him what had happened, but he couldn't tell them the truth.
He knew that rashly informing them might inflict even greater harm on his parents.
The daughter was also present, and if the situation went out of control, he couldn't manage it.
It wasn't about fearing responsibility but about possibly being too late to assu it!
After all, the pain of losing a son is sothing very few can bear.
And Luo Fei stood beside him, looking ever more grave and serious than before entering the house.
"Captain, how are you doing?"
"I'm fine. I just gathered so information. We're going to the school to et Qiao Yuanlong's colleagues. Maybe we can identify the true identities of the hostages."
