Animal Detective

Chapter 94 Who is he?
Haolin Arts & Crafts Co., Ltd.

"Uncle, thank you for your support of our work." In the top-floor office of the company's administration building, Sun Zhao politely shook hands with Shen Xin's father, Shen Haolin, to express his gratitude.

Shen Haolin, with his round belly and jade ring on his hand, had an ordinary appearance. He waved his hand and said, "Hey, we're family, no need for formalities. You're Shen Xin's boss, so I should thank you for taking care of him."

As he spoke, he took out another box of "Supreme Emperor" and distributed it to everyone, indicating that they should continue drinking.

Shen Shuang, and Shen Xin's mother Zeng Wenyi were also there.

Unlike the careless Shen Haolin, Zeng Wenyi was elegant and beautiful. She was currently with Shen Shuang, staring intently at Shen Xin, who was busy in the office.

Shen Xin stood on the stool and took the books from Ding Yuwei, placing them on the bookshelf.

"Mom, this is perfect. They're both police officers, and most importantly, they're beautiful," Shen Shuang whispered.

Zeng Wenyi didn't speak, she just nodded.

Inside the room, after filling the last bookshelf, Shen Xin jumped off the stool and went to the doorway to look at the photo.

Like, 95% complete.

The original crime scene has been renovated, so to recreate the scene, we have to find a new location.

Shen Xin immediately thought of his father's office, which was just as big.

Then I might as well borrow it.

They rented a desk and sofa from a secondhand furniture market that were highly similar to those at the crime scene.

The roc spread its wings; I borrowed it from my dad's friend.

Then there was the calligraphy of "Heaven rewards diligence," the potted lucky bamboo, and the money-biting toad on the desk. In short, Shen Xin put a lot of effort into recreating the crime scene as much as possible.

"Captain Sun, how are you feeling?" Shen Xin asked.

Sun Zhao took the photos, compared them, nodded, and said, "Then let's begin."

Outside, two actors are having their makeup done with the help of a female colleague from the branch office who is skilled in makeup.

Shen Xin wanted to recreate the scene.

So Shen Xin hasn't been idle these days, racking his brains to recall the people he knows and searching for people who look like Sun Kai and Liu Laibin.

Ding Yuwei even made a special trip to the film and television base in Nanzhu to see if she could find suitable candidates among the extras.

They were really lucky to find someone who looked about 80% like Liu Laibin.

Shen Xin also found the remaining Sun Kai. There was an employee in his own factory who looked very much like the Sun Kai in the portrait.

When Chen Chao first saw it, he almost shouted it out.

Of course, the main character is also present.

After informing the zoo, Li Xiaobing brought Blue over.

"Actors in position."

The actor was an extra with dreams, so he immediately got into character and smoothed his hair.

To prepare for the role, he even cut his hair the same as Liu Laibin's.

He sat upright behind his desk.

The employee playing Sun Kai was also in place, dressed in a suit, and seemed a little nervous, sitting in front of the desk.

"Don't be nervous, if you perform well I'll have my dad give you a bonus."

Shen Xin offered a word of encouragement, signaling that Bru could enter the field.

Li Xiaobing pushed the cage in, and covered it with a black cloth.

Shen Xin stepped forward and took out Blue.

Then everyone left the office, closed the door, and watched the situation inside via surveillance cameras.

Blue's position is on the right side of the desk, facing the lucky bamboo, with the sofa diagonally opposite and the office door to his right. From here, he can have a complete view of the entire office.

"start."

Shen Xinchong and the other man made a hand gesture, and then placed Blue on the perch.

They had been blocking his view, and he was very well-behaved and didn't struggle.

Shen Xinrang now sat in a corner, silently observing him.

He changed his environment, remained motionless, tilted his head, and looked around.

Parrots have rather dull eyes, and their faces don't have as many muscles as cats and dogs to support their facial expressions.

However, Shen Xin could still sense Bru's emotions from his actions and expressions, even though it was a genuine level of goodwill.

Of course, you can also hear his inner thoughts.

"Where am I?"

Clearly, Bru was somewhat bewildered.

The actors have already started their performance.

Shen Xin tried to imagine a scenario: after the company closed for the day, Sun Kai, who had already received the bridge loan, suddenly reappeared at the company.

Regardless of the reason, it can be inferred that the two were just sitting together chatting like actors.

What they talk about doesn't matter; let them express themselves freely.

Sure enough, Blue's attention was drawn to the two of them, and he stared at them intently.

Shen Xin didn't hear the inner voice, but judging from Bru's reaction, he must have recognized Liu Laibin.

If he can remember Tingting, then he can't possibly forget Liu Laibin, who bought him.

Shen Xinchong and the two actors exchanged a hand gesture.

"Liu Laibin" got up and pulled "Sun Kai" to the reception area.

Blue tilted his head, staring intently.

Still no voice of opinion.

But Shen Xin was already certain that Bru definitely recognized Liu Laibin.

Shen Xin raised another finger, Act Three.

Sun Kai suddenly pulled out a switchblade, pointed it at Liu Laibin, and threatened him to open the safe.

The autopsy revealed that Liu Laibin had some defensive injuries, including being strangled and kicked, suggesting that Sun Kai threatened him.

Because there were no signs of the safe being pried open.

Liu Laibin looked flustered.

"Sun Kai" also got into character, cursing loudly and even pretending to kick "Liu Laibin" a few times. Then he grabbed "Liu Laibin" by the neck and threatened him to open the safe. Shen Xin silently watched Blue's reaction.

Strange, I didn't hear any of their thoughts.

Even though it's only stage two, there shouldn't be so few thoughts.

Blue just tilted his head and looked.

On the other side, Sun Zhao and the others watched silently in front of the monitor.

"The case has been handled like this, it's truly amazing!" Chen Chao said, both amused and exasperated.

He couldn't have come up with this idea of ​​having a parrot reenact the crime, no matter how hard he tried.

Sun Zhao had the same thought, staring intently at Shen Xin, and then said, "The key is why this parrot isn't talking."

He assumed that Shen Xin had been busy teaching the parrot to speak and then having the parrot identify the scene.

By this time, the play was coming to an end.

"Sun Kai" wielded a switchblade and stabbed "Liu Laibin" repeatedly. "Liu Laibin" acted exceptionally well, convulsing and collapsing to the ground.

Just then, Blue, who had been motionless, reacted.

He hopped around on the perch.

Shen Xin, who had been observing Bru, suddenly showed a shocked expression on his face.

Finally, Shen Xin heard Bru's inner thoughts again.

"Strange, who is he?"

Shen Xin was somewhat bewildered.

Was the performance poor, or was there a problem with the script itself? Who is the "he" that Blu is referring to?
Is it Liu Laibin?

Something's not right. Shen Xin is certain that Bru recognized Liu Laibin just now.

That means Sun Kai.

Was it because Sun Kai didn't look like him that he didn't recognize him?

That shouldn't be the case. The employee that Shen Xin unexpectedly found looks almost exactly like the portrait, and with some makeup techniques, it would only look more like him.

Just as he was wondering, Shen Xin heard Bru's inner thoughts again.

"No, it's not one person."

Shen Xin was startled.

Does Blue mean that Sun Kai didn't come alone, but rather that it was a group crime?

Who are the others?
Sudden.

Blue flapped its wings and took flight.

He circled around the office, making sharp noises.

"Idiot, idiot!"

The two actors stopped.

Shen Xin was also stunned.

Idiot?
Isn't that Li Weiqin?
The next moment, Shen Xin heard his inner voice again.

"They're all here, all the idiots are here, where are they?"

Shen Xin's eyes widened suddenly.

In an instant, his mind went blank as if electrified, and a thought popped into his head, making Shen Xin's scalp tingle.

"Blue!"

Shen Xin shouted.

Blue turned his head and obediently landed on Shen Xin's shoulder.

Shen Xin hurriedly pointed to the bewildered "Sun Kai" on the ground and asked, "Wasn't this person there at the time?"

"Yep!"

As Bru spoke, his inner thoughts also emerged.

"Who is he?"

Shen Xin gasped, somewhat startled.

With a bang, the office door opened, and Sun Zhao and the others quickly walked in.

"Shen Xin, what does 'idiot' mean?"

They all heard it; Blue was calling them idiots.

Among the group, Ding Yuwei also showed a thoughtful expression.

Shen Xin looked at Bru, then at the two actors on the ground, and then said blankly, "Captain Sun, do you think there might be such a possibility?"

"That means... there's no such person as Sun Kai at all!"

Sun Zhao was startled and frowned, asking, "What do you mean?"

Ding Yuwei, standing in the crowd, suddenly widened her eyes.

She seemed to have thought of that too.

Shen Xin turned around and looked at the crime scene in front of him, a chilling feeling rising in his heart.

"I mean, is it possible that there were many people involved in the murder, and that they colluded to fabricate a murderer for our police?"

Blue's reaction was clear: he had never met Sun Kai and did not know who he was.

But he knew the "idiot" was there.

And it wasn't just one, it was all of them!

How many are there?
The entire company has only 5 employees.

In this case, the five people's testimonies about Sun Kai were basically consistent; they had all met Sun Kai.

Li Weiqin even took Liu Laibin to visit Sun Kai's company.

But Sun Kai does not exist.

Then they must be lying.

All five people were lying.

Liu Laibin's death was caused by all of his company's employees working together!
