False evidence

Chapter 38 The Lost Cellphone

Seeing the figure fall, I reached out my hand without thinking.

Although the annex and the inpatient building are connected, there is still a considerable distance between the window from which the person fell and the corner of the rooftop.

I could barely hold onto the person's clothes.

Fortunately, my instinct for survival led me to grab my wrist instead.

However, as a result, half of my body was hanging outside, and the force of the fall caused me to flip over from the rooftop!

Thankfully, Gao He caught up and grabbed my legs, shouting, "Hold on tight, don't let go!"

My stomach was throbbing from being pressed against the fence, and I gritted my teeth and said, "Brother Monkey, give me the belt!"

"Belt? I'm not wearing a belt!" the monkey said, bewildered.

"Use Captain Gao!" I said urgently.

Taking the belt from the monkey, I hurriedly tied my hand to the wrist of the person who fell from the building, tightening the automatic buckle to its maximum before finally letting out a sigh of relief.

……

In the ward, the doctor disinfected the abrasions on my stomach and arms.

Pidan frowned and said, "Why did you have to go out and wander around like that? Now look what happened, you've gotten hurt again!"

"That was a human life." I felt no pride after saving someone; I was just full of questions.

Gao He walked in with a gloomy face. After the doctor left, he still pursed his lips and looked at me without saying a word.

"Pfft..." The monkey finally couldn't hold back his laughter.

Gao's face flushed red, and he finally couldn't help but laugh.

After a moment, he put on a stern face and said, "Alright, let's put this behind us. Let's not bring it up again!"

The monkey kept laughing to itself: "No... no turning back now, brother, so this year is your zodiac year? Hehehe... red underwear, one side of the butt is a dog's head, the other side is a bone... kind of cute... hahahaha..."

I didn't have time to see clearly what the monkey saw, but from what he said, I can imagine what the scene must have been like.

In fact, the person who fell was wearing a hospital gown, and when I grabbed him, the back of the gown was already torn.

The person who fell was a woman. She instinctively grabbed my hand, but she couldn't hold on for long.

That's why I asked the monkey for a belt to tie the two of them together.

What impressed me most was that when Gao He and that person were pulled up, his pants were hanging down to his ankles.

At the time, I didn't care what his underwear looked like, but I knew that quite a few people had already gone up to the rooftop, including Lin Dan.

Furthermore, inside the hospital building, a large number of people heard the commotion and peeked out to look.

Because of this little incident, although it was about saving lives, it ended up in a rather comical way.

"Cough cough!" Gao He seemed to have gone all out, pulling up his pants. "I've been so busy with cases lately that I've lost weight, and my pants are loose now."

I was afraid he would really lose face, so I quickly told the monkey to shut up.

Luckily, I had the foresight to only say that I saved someone and stopped the monkey from telling me that part. Otherwise, if Pidan and his mother had joined in the teasing, Gao He would have really lost face.

I asked Gao He, "How's Zhou Dongdong doing?"

That's right, the one who fell from the seventh-floor window was Zhou Dongdong, who was being protected at the same time as Pidan. Gao He also became serious, "She suffered a mental shock, and she had just undergone surgery... She's already been transferred to special care. By the way, how did you know she was going to jump? Did you see the signs? You have such good eyesight?"

I said, "Let's not talk about that now. Did she jump off the building herself?"

Gao He said, "At first, she only said she wanted to walk in the corridor, which she had the right to do. But no one expected that she would suddenly jump out of the window."

"Where's her phone?" I asked.

"cell phone?"

"Find her phone! Go get it!"

Gao went out for a while, and when he came back, he asked me, "I've already sent people to look for her. What? Do you think her jumping off the building is related to her cell phone?"

"It's not just the phone, it's the dog too."

The monkey asked in astonishment, "A cell phone? A dog? What do these two things have to do with each other?"

Pidan couldn't help but chime in, "Could it be hypnosis through a cell phone? That's how it's portrayed in movies."

I sighed and said in a hoarse voice, "This is my fault. I was too arrogant."

“Young people, it’s good to be brave enough to criticize yourself, but don’t blindly admit your mistakes.” Gao He seemed relaxed, but he was actually feeling heavy-hearted. “Even if we use our phones to incite others to commit suicide, it’s because we didn’t think things through, and it has nothing to do with you.”

The monkey asked, "Using a cell phone to incite someone to jump off a building is theoretically feasible, but what does that have to do with dogs?"

I shook my head: "Don't you think it's strange that a dog is trapped on a rooftop?"

Gao He raised his chin: "Speak your mind."

I hesitated for a moment before saying, "When you were on the rooftop taking the call, a thought suddenly popped into my head. If I were Sun Jing, would I contact Zhou Dongdong directly via text message or phone, or contact Pidan?"

Pidan said, "He didn't contact me. Now everyone knows he's the murderer. If he texted me, wouldn't I tell you right away?"

Gao He looked at her and said, "Logically speaking, the photo studio recorded the victim's contact information, so it's not impossible for the murderer to contact Zhou Dongdong directly. But just like Xiao Pei said, Zhou Dongdong also knew that Sun Jing wanted to kill her, so it's impossible that she wouldn't let us know if she received a call or text message."

Century Egg said, "That's not necessarily true."

Gao He looked at her, his eyes slowly rolling back and forth. "Are you saying that Sun Jing would use other identities, such as WeChat or QQ, to contact Zhou Dongdong without revealing himself?"

I nodded: "Zhou Dongdong is pregnant. Not only is her wedding off, but someone is also trying to kill her. She's already under a lot of psychological pressure. I was the one who suggested spreading the news that she should have an abortion, which caused her further emotional distress."

"Wait a minute." Gao He waved his hand. "If you feel guilty about this, there's no need to. We won't do anything reckless. In fact, Pei Xiaofan did do as you said."

But Zhou Dongdong is genuinely pregnant and needs an abortion. Publicizing her personal information would be a different matter entirely. Therefore, we not only refrained from spreading the news of her abortion, but we have also explained the situation to both her and her mother.

"Officer, you guys are too cunning! So you're saying you're only going to sacrifice me?" Pidan complained.

Gao He didn't respond, but continued, "The news hasn't spread, but whether Zhou Dongdong mentioned her pregnancy when she went to try on wedding dresses with someone is unknown. That's settled, let's move on to the next one. Sanqi, continue with your thoughts."

I finally felt a little relieved, but when Gao He asked me a question, I was still struggling with how to start.

Actually, when Gao was on the rooftop taking the phone call, I didn't suddenly think of anything; rather, I saw some images through his behavior and expressions.

But the law is absolutely rigorous and cannot accept any fabricated testimony. What I saw was not fabricated, but 'nothingness'.

I thought about it again and again, and finally said to Gao He:

“I don’t know what Sun Jing was thinking or doing, but if I were Sun Jing, I could probably kill her with just a cell phone and a dog.”
