Starting as the President of a Billionaire Group Chapter 1273 - 1248: Fate
I’ve already learned so things from Zhang Rui, and since she’s emotionally unstable now, we can only detain her for the mont and interrogate her later.
After Zhou Susu completed the transcript, she had Zhang Rui sign and press her fingerprint.
Strangely, this woman was very obedient, perhaps because her conscience was uneasy.
After finishing these tasks, Zhou Susu returned to the office, where only Ye Chen was left, and the middle-aged man was nowhere to be seen.
"Susu, did you finish questioning her? Was the interrogation successful?" Ye Chen asked, looking at the sowhat fatigued Zhou Susu.
"Well, it went alright, I just never expected this woman to hate her own sister so much, and to be so vicious," Zhou Susu sighed and said.
"What’s so surprising about that? Haven’t you heard the saying, ’You can know soone’s face but not their heart’?" Ye Chen rolled his eyes at Zhou Susu and said.
Maybe because she was a bit flustered earlier, Zhou Susu only now realized that the middle-aged man had left.
"Ye Chen, where is the murderer? How co he’s gone?" Zhou Susu asked anxiously.
If it’s known that the murderer escaped right under her nose, she wouldn’t be able to work as a police officer anymore.
Seeing Zhou Susu’s anxious face, Ye Chen quickly comforted her, "Susu, don’t worry, listen to ."
Ye Chen spoke as he pressed Zhou Susu down onto the sofa to help her cool down slowly.
"Didn’t you promise not to arrest Uncle Qiang imdiately, to give him so ti," Ye Chen asked, looking at Zhou Susu.
"Yes, but can you guarantee he won’t run away?" Zhou Susu retorted.
"I can guarantee it because I saved his mother’s life. He wouldn’t do such a thing either emotionally or morally, and as far as I know, Uncle Qiang did what he did purely out of necessity to treat his mother’s illness. He was forced and has been struggling with his conscience, only worried about his sick old mother," Ye Chen explained slowly.
"Ye Chen, you’re really naive. He’s a murderer; he has two lives on his hands and is liable to be sentenced to death. How could he possibly co back and turn himself in?" Zhou Susu disagreed and said.
What she said was indeed correct, but Uncle Qiang was not what she imagined; he was soone who repaid kindness.
"Susu, have you considered that if Uncle Qiang doesn’t confront Zhang Rui face-to-face, what evidence do we have to prove she hired a killer? And it’s even harder to prove that Uncle Qiang is the killer she hired. He did this solely to repay kindness," Ye Chen continued.
Ye Chen’s words were also reasonable, and Zhou Susu nodded in agreent.
However, she still felt worried and said, "Ye Chen, how much do you know about Uncle Qiang? How can you guarantee he won’t run away? If he does, it’ll be really hard to catch him again."
"Captain Zhou, don’t worry a bit. Once Uncle Qiang’s mother finishes her surgery, I promise you won’t need to catch him; he will voluntarily surrender," Ye Chen asserted confidently.
Since Ye Chen said so, Zhou Susu didn’t say anything more.
If it weren’t for Ye Chen’s help, Zhang Rui, such a cunning woman, wouldn’t have confessed honestly.
"Alright, Susu, if there’s nothing else, I’ll be leaving now," Ye Chen stood up from the sofa and said.
"Wait a minute, Ye Chen, I still have so questions," Zhou Susu suddenly said.
Ye Chen looked a bit helpless, thinking he had explained everything to Zhou Susu clearly, wondering why she still felt uneasy.
"Susu, I’ve already said Uncle Qiang won’t run," Ye Chen said sowhat impatiently.
Zhou Susu hurriedly said, "Ye Chen, I’m not talking about that, but about Zhang Rui."
"Hasn’t Zhang Rui already confessed? What else is there?" Ye Chen asked, confused.
"I’m talking about Little Jing’s mom being so good to Zhang Rui, yet Zhang Rui as a younger sister holds such deep hatred for the elder sister; it doesn’t make sense," Zhou Susu expressed her doubt.
Ye Chen looked at Zhou Susu and said, "There must be stories between the sisters that we don’t know."
Suddenly, Zhou Susu seed to recall sothing and said, "Right, I think it must be because the older sister took the younger sister’s boyfriend, causing such hatred, and Zhang Rui has already said that because of her sister, she’s living unhappily."
Upon hearing Zhou Susu’s words, Ye Chen wasn’t entirely convinced. He thought for a mont and said, "Susu, have you noticed that since Little Jing’s parents’ incident, so people have not shown up."
"What do you an by that? What do you an by so people haven’t appeared?" Zhou Susu asked in return.
"With their daughter having an incident, naturally, the parents should show up," Ye Chen continued.
"It’s very likely that Little Jing’s grandparents have already passed away," Zhou Susu imdiately replied.
That explanation wasn’t impossible, but given the ages of the two sisters, their parents ought not to have passed away at such a young age.
"Susu, I think you should check it out, perhaps they are still alive," Ye Chen said.
Following Ye Chen’s suggestion, she checked on Little Jing’s grandparents and indeed found out they were still alive and had both an address and phone number.
Regarding whether the address and phone above were valid, Zhou Susu hesitated a bit, because so people might find it troubleso and even if they had moved or changed phone numbers, might not register at the police station.
With a "give it a try" attitude, Zhou Susu dialed the phone number listed.
Ringing several tis later, the call was answered, and a voice from an elderly woman ca through: "Hello, is there sothing you need?"
Upon hearing the voice inside, Zhou Susu quickly replied, "Hello, I am Officer Zhou, may I know if you are Zhang Xia?"
Zhang Xia was the na Zhou Susu found via computer as Little Jing’s grandmother.
"Hello, yes, I am. May I know what you’re calling about?" Zhang Xia asked.
Although she knew the caller was a police officer, Zhang Xia wasn’t flustered; she knew this day would co sooner or later.
She once thought of going to the police station to tell the truth, but hesitated, having already lost one daughter, not wanting to lose the other.
Perhaps it was simply a mother’s selfishness.
However, knowing that the police had found her, Zhang Xia certainly understood they suspected the younger daughter of being the murderer of her elder daughter and husband.
Initially, knowing that the elder daughter and her husband were murdered, leaving only the granddaughter Little Jing, Zhang Xia had several tis considered going to the police station to bring Little Jing ho and raise her well.
But she worried that the police would surely question her, and she couldn’t just lie to the police against her conscience, so she’d rather not show up.
Perhaps it’s fate; the police found her.
