At this mont, Su Qing transford into a model youth of the new era: annoyed, sleepy, hungry, tired, and... at a loss for words.
Out of nowhere, he was treated as a suspect and even got handcuffed.
But when Li Zijun explained the whole story, he was still surprised. Although he hasn't had many things to deal with in the past two days, things have been happening one after another. Especially Shen Yi, who inexplicably got him to drive a car back. What's more crucial is that he hasn't heard from her since, which made him overthink a bit.
Besides, it's not like he's unemployed; he usually has to edit videos to make money. Once he gets busy with this, he forgets about the Zhao Minghui situation altogether.
Still, even if he hadn't forgotten, he likely couldn't have warned him. Even if he did, the other party probably wouldn't listen. Besides, they are in law enforcent, and saying too much could make him a suspect. It's unnecessary.
If sothing happened to Li Zijun, he would be willing to stay by her side every day. But even so, he's suspected now, where can he explain himself!
"Sis, is Captain Zhao alright? How's his injury?" Su Qing asked hastily.
In response, Li Zijun stared into his eyes, noticing his facial expression was sowhat unnatural. Her heart sunk even more, and she replied, "He was stabbed in the abdon, but fortunately, the cri scene is in a bustling area. The surrounding people called an ambulance in ti, so there's no danger to his life."
"But you must tell honestly, what exactly do you know, and what's your relation to that case?"
"How did you know Captain Zhao would have an incident today, even subtly asking where he usually eats lunch, and even warned him to be careful?"
"Xiao Qing, I work in criminal investigation; you'd better be honest. It's just the two of us here now; if the events from the night before last get known by other colleagues, it wouldn't just be coming to see you today."
What Li Zijun said, including cuffing him, was all to scare him into being truthful. Of course, this thod can only be privately used with people she knows very well. You can't just cuff strangers carelessly.
Fortunately, only the three of them were present when Su Qing said those words the night before last. Now that Zhao Minghui is in the hospital and hasn't woken up yet, she must act fast; if others react, it would be troubleso. She might as well scare him first. If there really is a problem, it's better to take him to confess.
It's obvious that whether it's the sudden appearance of the luxury car key or Su Qing's deanor, sothing is definitely off. She can't be fooled, after all, her criminal psychology studies are not for nothing.
Plus, anyone would overthink Su Qing's words from the night before last, especially those in criminal investigation like her, facing nurous criminals daily. Without real skills, could she have achieved results in just a few years?
Su Qing also realized that the trouble stemd from his words from the night before last, intending to warn Zhao Minghui but didn't expect things to still happen.
Even so, he knew there's no way he could admit to it. Besides, it had nothing to do with him. It's just that the excuse is... so difficult. He wished he had kept his mouth shut then.
"Sis, don't you know ? How could I be related? I just saw Captain Zhao's face looked a bit dark, maybe he was going to have a disaster involving blood. I didn't even leave the house today," Su Qing hurriedly explained.
But instead of relaxing, Li Zijun raised her voice, "Don't give that crap, what Feng Shui Divination, you think I'd believe that?"
"I'm not afraid to tell you, this case is also related to the anti-narcotics departnt. You were young in the past, so I wouldn't bla you, but now you've graduated. You can earn money slowly, but you absolutely cannot touch those things, or else, where did you get that car from?"
"I ca to find you today without notifying Uncle and Aunt out of consideration for you. Don't make it hard for . Captain Zhao is a veteran detective. When he wakes up, how could he not suspect you given what you said the night before last?"
Li Zijun used both threats and reasoning; she didn't want him to lose his head.
At this mont, Su Qing felt utterly ssed up. He didn't expect that the car could make Li Zijun suspect him of being involved in such business. She really overrates him.
He sighed and said, "Sis, whether you believe it or not, this really has nothing to do with . I've just been reading so Feng Shui Divination books recently and said sothing randomly, didn't expect it to co true. As for the car... it's not mine; a friend lent it to . This can't be faked. If you still don't believe it, I won't make it hard for you. You can take back to the station, can't you just check it out?"
He's genuinely confident since it has absolutely nothing to do with him. Even if Conan ca here, it wouldn't help, but his words from the night before last are hard to clear up. But now, he can only attribute it to Feng Shui Divination, he can't say he can hear the narration, right?
Looking at his open and straightforward manner, Li Zijun couldn't help but furrow her brows. Moreover, while Su Qing was speaking, she kept observing the changes in his facial expression. Other than initially acting a bit unnatural, everything else seed normal.
"Really has nothing to do with you?"
[As childhood friends who grew up together, Li Zijun's doubt in you has not been fully dispelled, but she also feels relieved. However, the doubts in her heart have increased a lot, and you have once again caught the attention of an older sister.]
Su Qing:...
Childhood friends my ass, have you ever seen childhood playmates cuff each other?
"Really, how could I deceive you on such matters? I've already said, if necessary, I can go back with you. With your thods, even fugitives can't escape, let alone soone like who stays ho all day." Su Qing spread his hands helplessly.
In response, Li Zijun thought about it and agreed. Saying no more, Su Qing, a hobody, would be too easy to investigate.
"Better be," she said, unlocking the handcuffs, continuing, "Xiao Qing, don't bla either. Although Niu Fei is just a small fry, the case itself isn't small."
Su Qing nodded hastily, "Of course not, I'm not that petty."
"That car is really your friend's? Which friend of yours is so rich? The car downstairs isn't cheap, you know?" Li Zijun asked as she sat down. She noticed the car when she arrived earlier, as it was too eye-catching, especially being brand-new.
Upon hearing this, Su Qing paused, as he had only t Shen Yi yesterday. She loaned him a car worth more than a hundred grand on their first eting. Can she trust this? At least he doesn't.
Seeing his reaction, Li Zijun glared at him, "What's wrong? Speak up!"
"I knew you were hiding sothing from !"
Seeing this, Su Qing quickly explained, but only to see Li Zijun raise her delicate hand and say softly:
"Fine, rather than waiting for Captain Zhao to wake up and suspect you, I'd better take you to the station to clarify things. But let tell you, if there really is a problem, it's best to confess now!"
[Disaster cos from the mouth; one should do their part for a harmonious society, starting with combating cri!]
Su Qing: (╬￣皿￣)
Go to hell!
