The Forensic Doctor Better Than a Detective Chapter 241 - 166: The Truth Is Heartbreaking!

"Li Lan repeatedly explained that Chen Minghao was her uncle, not like what I thought."

"Chen Minghao also kept arguing that Li Lan ca over tonight to borrow money for her mother’s treatnt."

"At the ti, I thought both of them were just stubborn people at the end of their rope, and I didn’t want to hear any of their explanations."

Then, Li Jian asked, "How did you manage to go against the two of them by yourself?"

"Ha-ha, two cowards."

"I threatened Chen Minghao, telling him to tie up his hands and feet, and maybe I wouldn’t light the gasoline."

"He complied without the slightest hesitation."

"Where did he get the rope from?"

"When facing the danger of death, he always managed to find a way."

"This famous CEO used Li Lan’s shoelaces to bind his hands and feet together."

"And then what?"

"I walked over and kicked him hard in the chest several tis."

Suddenly, Zhong Shuang’s eyes filled with bloodshot, his facial expression twisted, and he said through gritted teeth, "But, I didn’t plan to kill him right away; that would be too easy for him."

"He slept with my wife. I wanted him to slowly roast himself in the high heat."

"How did you deal with Li Lan?"

Zhong Shuang said, "As despicable as this woman was, we did once love each other."

"I didn’t make her death too painful; I just strangled her to death right away."

After a brief pause, Zhong Shuang shook his head and said, "It’s ridiculous how she kept saying she loved and never did anything against even till her last breath."

"Ha-ha, truly self-deceiving."

"Just now, wasn’t she hugging a man old enough to be her father, or was that my delusion?"

"With her last breath, she insisted that Chen Minghao was her actual uncle!"

"Utterly delusional."

"If she really had such an uncle, she probably wouldn’t have been with ."

Then, Li Jian asked, "And then?"

"Afterward, I poured the remaining gasoline from the barrel all over the office and escaped after setting the fire."

"Where did you exit from?"

"I fled the sa way I ca in, jumping over the wall."

"However, after escaping, I realized my car was still in the garage."

"Although the car was stolen, there were so expensive cigars and liquor in the trunk, so I went back to retrieve them."

Li Jian pressed on, "Where did you get those cigars and liquor?"

After a mont of silence, Zhong Shuang said, "I’ve admitted to murder, so this is nothing. I stole them!"

Li Jian nodded and asked, "Did you also damage the surveillance cara lines in the garage?"

Zhong Shuang nodded, "Yes!"

"Otherwise, how could I have gotten into the car to take back those expensive items?"

A mont later, Li Jian said solemnly, "Did you ever consider that Li Lan may have been telling the truth?"

"The truth?"

"How could it be the truth?"

"If what she said was true, the sun would rise from the west."

Then, Li Jian continued, "According to our investigation, Li Lan’s mother has uremia and just found a kidney donor, but the surgery is very expensive."

"During this period, she often worked overti and ca ho late, mainly from working part-ti at a KTV to accompany drinks."

"According to her best friend, Li Lan hid this from you to avoid making you suspicious."

"However, she never did the things you imagined."

"As for her relationship with Chen Minghao, it truly is an uncle-niece relationship."

"Chen Minghao and Li Lan’s father are twin brothers, but Li Lan’s father was abducted when they were young."

"Six months ago, Li Lan found her long-lost uncle Chen Minghao through the Little Treasure Ho-seeking website."

"As for why Li Lan was with Chen Minghao that night, we hypothesize that Li Lan was raising money for her mother’s surgery."

"That day, Chen Minghao withdrew one million yuan in cash from the bank."

"If we’re not mistaken, this one million should have been for Li Lan’s mother’s treatnt."

Hearing this, Zhong Shuang’s head spun, and he once again recalled the scene from that night in his mind.

He rembered that when he barged into the bedroom, both of them were fully dressed, rely embracing each other.

Li Lan’s head was resting on Chen Minghao’s shoulder, and he vaguely heard her sobbing softly.

Throughout the entire process, Li Lan kept explaining and pleading with him.

But, at that ti, he was already consud by hatred.

Two minutes later, Zhong Shuang’s face twisted in rage, and he let out an anguished yell.

Imdiately afterward, a dull "thud-thud-thud" echoed from within the interrogation room.

Zhong Shuang’s head continuously slamd against the small desk in front of him.

Regret, self-reproach, and guilt filled his heart.

At this mont.

Chen He, Jiang An, and Zhang Yean stood outside the one-way glass, watching the situation inside the interrogation room.

Seeing this, all three felt a wave of mixed emotions inside.

Chen He shook his head and said, "It’s truly a beautiful flower stuck in cow dung."

Zhang Yean also sighed, "Isn’t trust the most important thing between lovers?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Mr. Ma’s voice sounded.

"Chen He, how’s the interrogation going?"

Quickly, the three turned around.

"All confessed!"

Chen He said confidently.

"So quickly?"

Mr. Ma found it hard to believe.

Then, Chen He glanced at Jiang An and said, "This guy was very cunning when he ca back; luckily, Mr. Jiang used a clever strategy."

"Oh?"

Mr. Ma looked at Jiang An, smiling and quite curious.

Jiang An said, "Reporting to Mr. Ma, it wasn’t anything ingenious, just applying enough psychological pressure on the suspect from the physical evidence perspective."

Chen He said, "Mr. Ma, you weren’t here earlier, you didn’t witness the whole tortuous process."

"Before Jiang An used his trump card, Zhong Shuang was acting like an old fox, infuriating Mr. Li to the point of fuming."

"After Jiang An used his trump card, Zhong Shuang instantly collapsed into the chair, ashen-faced."

Hearing this, Mr. Ma smiled, his eyes filled with admiration.

Jiang An said, "Mr. Chen, you’re flattering ."

"I rely reconstructed Zhong Shuang’s cri process, looking for any possible traces."

Mr. Ma nodded, "Good job, Jiang An!"

"Testimonies can lie, but physical evidence won’t."

"Often, those silent testimonies are the most convincing!"

He raised his hand and patted Jiang An’s shoulder, "Jiang An, well done!"

"You did excellently this ti, fully living up to the expectations of our city bureau’s leadership."

Finally, Mr. Ma said, "With you as the sharp blade leader of the murder case team, I’m very assured."

Jiang An stood at attention, raised his right hand, and saluted.

"Mr. Ma! Please rest assured! I will spare no effort to solve murder cases."

Mr. Ma nodded and smiled.

Just then, Li Jian and Wan also ca out.

Mr. Ma turned his head and said, "Well done!"

Li Jian smiled, "That old fox finally confessed."

Then, Mr. Ma changed the subject and asked, "Did he kill two people by himself?"

"Any accomplices?"

Li Jian shook his head, "Based on the current investigation materials and the scene investigation, no accomplices have been found."

"Have the tools used for the cri been found?"

"The gasoline barrel was found in his ho, but he threw away the rope."

Mr. Ma instructed, "Regarding such a cunning suspect, be vigilant to prevent him from recanting in court, we must make this case ironclad."

"Yes! Mr. Ma!"

Then, Li Jian turned to look at Jiang An.

"Mr. Ma, in solving this case, Jiang An has been instruntal again."

"When the case investigation hit a deadlock, he tily shifted focus from Chen Minghao to Li Lan."

"Additionally, after the suspect was caught, he was the one who opened the last mile to solving the case."

Mr. Ma nodded, "Jiang An truly has a talent for criminal investigation."

"Though he’s young, he absolutely deserves the title of the sharp blade leader for murder cases!"
