Death sentence turned into acquittal? Who told him to be a detective!

Chapter 140 Ironclad Evidence! False Evidence! [A long chapter of 4,000 words!]

Hand over the video!!!
Yang Ruoxi, who caught up with Xu Liang from behind, was stunned. She had no idea what video it was and didn't understand why Xu Liang had suddenly brought it up.

The hotel owner's eyes twitched, but he still asked with suspicion:

"What are you doing?"

"Are you here to stay or what?!"

The boss was a middle-aged man, about 1.7 meters tall and weighing about 180 kilograms. He was slightly overweight, and when he saw the fierce-looking Xu Liang, he couldn't help but feel a little scared.

"Ha, don't pretend with me."

Xu Liang's expression hardened.

He already saw it when he arrived.

In those rooms, there were more or less some suspicious red dots!
"The surveillance video speaks for itself, doesn't it?" Xu Liang said.

Surveillance video
Yang Ruoxi was still puzzled.

There was no surveillance footage at the scene.

If there were any, the police would have already transferred the case to convict Duan Feipeng; there would have been no need for Zhou Ke to take him away!
Moreover.

Chen Changchun had also asked the hotel owner.

The other party didn't install a surveillance camera behind the hotel to monitor the alley.

but.
"There may be no surveillance cameras in the alleys, but there might be surveillance cameras in the rooms."

Xu Liang's face gradually turned cold.

He never expected that what he had only intended to do at the murder scene to try his luck would lead to such an amazing and unexpected discovery!
"A monitored room!?" Yang Ruoxi was stunned.

Legally, surveillance is not allowed in private settings.

Hotel rooms involve privacy, especially in places where you pay to stay and couples occasionally stay, so it's even less likely that there will be surveillance!

"We're a legitimate hotel, how could we possibly have something like what you're describing?"

The hotel owner swallowed hard, a hint of obsequiousness creeping onto his face.

Yang Ruoxi hesitated.

She trusted Xu Liang's judgment, but she didn't know where the surveillance cameras were.

"Heh, still pretending!"

"You won't learn your lesson until you see the coffin; do you want me to give you a heads-up?!"

Xu Liang took a deep breath and stared intently at his boss.

"For example, so-called miniature cameras?"

The instant I heard those words.

The boss's pupils suddenly contracted, and he took a step back.

"you you!"

He looked horrified, genuinely bewildered as to how the person in front of him knew this.

"Hand over the security camera that faces the room directly into the bakery!"

Xu Liang stared fiercely at the other party and said threateningly:

"Otherwise, when the police arrive, they won't be as easy to talk to as I am."

What miniature camera?

Yang Ruoxi was completely confused; limited by the times, she couldn't understand Xu Liang's words.

But it's okay.

The boss understands!

"Brother, I really don't know."

The boss was sweating profusely, and he still tried to struggle.

Xu Liang immediately pulled out his phone, as if to call the police.

Upon seeing this, the boss instantly became furious.

"I'll give it! I'll give it!"

"Don't call the police, I'll give it to you!!!"

After saying that, the boss anxiously walked out from behind the counter, swallowed hard, and obsequiously led Xu Liang upstairs.

Yang Ruoxi was extremely shocked.

There really is one!?

She hurriedly followed.

The boss didn't try anything funny.

You can run away from the monk but not the temple. The hotel is his temple. Even if all these things are exposed, he still can't escape.

Instead, it would be better to appease the other party first and explain everything.

soon.

The owner then led the two to the second floor of the hotel.

Finally, they stood in room 207.

The boss took out his key, inserted it into the lock, and the next second...

"Crack!"

The door is opened.

A dark room, unlit and completely dark, appeared before the two of them.

The three of them walked in.

Yang Ruoxi first went to the window and looked outside.

"Directly facing the crime scene!"

She was shocked.

That's right.

This room faces the crime scene directly. If anyone had checked in on the night of December 6th, they would have definitely seen the entire murder!
But unfortunately, no one
But what the heck is this camera?

Yang Ruoxi scanned the area but didn't see any surveillance cameras, so she finally focused on Xu Liang and the boss.

The boss then awkwardly pried open the landline phone on the bedside table, which was flashing a red light.

"Crack!"

With a crisp sound, a black electronic device appeared in the palm of the hand.

这 是
"Camera!?"

Yang Ruoxi was suddenly shocked and stared in disbelief at the thing in the boss's palm.

There really was a camera in the room!?

Why would a hotel room have this?
Why are the cameras hidden?!

The overwhelming amount of information that came at her in a short period of time caused her brain to shut down.

Xu Liang didn't say anything, he just stared at him coldly.

"Wait, wait."

The boss gave an awkward smile.

He quickly went to the television and disassembled the disc player that was facing the bed.

"Crack!"

It's another camera.

Xu Liang continued to watch coldly.

The boss felt extremely uneasy, so he pried open another socket and found that it also contained a hidden camera!

One room, multiple perspectives: there were three cameras spying on us, and they were even pointing at the bed!
"Nothing."

The boss forced himself to speak.

"hehe."

Xu Liang sneered and glanced at the ceiling.

Seeing this, the boss was heartbroken and could only stand on the bed and remove the camera from the ceiling that was angled towards the bed.

Four.
Four!?
Yang Ruoxi didn't understand, but she was extremely shocked!

There are four cameras pointing at the bed in a private room!
wrong
In a daze, she came to her senses, glanced sharply at the location of the fourth camera, and then at the murder scene outside the window.

If.

If that's a camera on the ceiling, then judging from the angle...
I just happened to be able to see the murder scene!

All of a sudden.

Yang Ruoxi's pupils constricted, becoming as small as pinpoints.

"This time it's really gone," the boss said in a low voice.

"enough."

Xu Liang nodded.

"Get me the footage from the fourth camera, from 6 PM on December 12th!"

December 12rd?
The boss thought for a moment, then asked with a puzzled look:
No one was staying in the house that night.

"Just do what I tell you to do!" Xu Liang frowned, somewhat impatiently, and said again, "If you say another word, I'll call the police!!!"

Upon hearing this, the boss immediately became obedient.

"Don't be so fierce, I'll adjust it."

Finished.

He then led the two of them back to the front desk on the first floor.

Upon arriving at the front desk computer, the boss removed a memory card from the webcam and then started playing the video on the computer.

Take advantage of this opportunity.

Unable to contain her curiosity, Yang Ruoxi leaned closer to Xu Liang and whispered, "..."

"How come there are surveillance cameras here!?"

How could there be surveillance footage?

"On the internet, some people create websites that ordinary people cannot access or find; you can think of them as the dark web."

Xu Liang patiently explained to him.

"The dark web has no laws, no regulations, and is full of black market transactions."

"Human traffickers, drug addicts, and human bones are all sold and bought on it, and so is pornography!"

"Among them are pornographic videos and live-streaming pornographic rooms."

In 2004, 95 out of 100 people didn't know about the dark web. They might know about pornographic websites.

But no one, including the police, realized that someone might be illegally filming inside a hotel!
These people filmed private videos of couples and lovers and sold them online.

The monthly profits are enormous, and some people even set up live streaming studios to broadcast live when guests check in!

Imagine you're sleeping while hundreds of eyes are watching you from a corner.
Some people might think that these illegal cameras were left by guests.

But in reality...
A significant number of these people were hotel staff, or were deliberately placed there by the owner!

These days, it's hard to find cameras that can connect to the internet over long distances; most of them use memory cards.

Retrieving the memory card after each shoot is quite a hassle for everyone except the hotel staff.
"Therefore, if some hotels are found to have hidden cameras, it's possible that the owners installed them intentionally."

Xu Liang spoke slowly.

Yang Ruoxi was deeply shocked and felt a chill run down her spine.

Seeing her like this, Xu Liang offered words of comfort.

"Don't worry, there aren't many these days."

"Just stay here and relax. We just happened to run into such a heartless person."

Upon hearing this, Yang Ruoxi breathed a sigh of relief.

She then glared angrily at the heartless boss.

The boss completely ignored these words, acting as if he wasn't being talked about.

He hesitated for a moment, then finally turned to look at Xu Liang.

"Brother, it's been transferred."

He spoke in a fawning tone, his eyes filled with ingratiation.

Xu Liang turned his head to look.

The computer screen showed a completely dark room, with the viewpoint from the ceiling looking down onto the bed.

only.
corner.

Just right, you can see the bakery outside through the window!!
Yang Ruoxi was startled and looked closely.

12 month 6 number.

7:20 PM.

The figure belonging to the deceased burst into the dark alley, dressed in tattered clothes, and searched through several trash cans.

Seven thirty.

Three figures suddenly appeared in the frame.

In the footage, the two seemed to be saying something, and after a long while, one of the shadowy figures slapped the beggar first.

The beggar was beaten and forced to retreat, huddling in a corner.

The three men did not give up and continued to beat him.

At one point, it seemed as if he couldn't take it anymore.

Suddenly, the beggar resisted. He stood up and shoved one of the men hard, causing the man to stagger and fall to the ground. Then the beggar turned and ran away.

But a pity.

The other two surrounded the beggar.

7:45
The figure that had been pushed down, as if venting its anger, raised whatever it was holding high, and then...
"Crack!"

The stick fell heavily.

Once, twice, three times.
The beggar's head was covered in blood from being hit on the back.

Just then, the dark clouds dispersed, and moonlight shone down.

Duan Feipeng's ferocious face appeared on the camera.

"Duan Feipeng!!!"

Yang Ruoxi's pupils constricted, and almost subconsciously, she uttered the other person's name.

She was panting heavily.

He stared at Xu Liang in complete shock.

"There's evidence! There's evidence!!!"

Yang Ruoxi said excitedly.

This camera, intended for spying on privacy, inadvertently captured the entire incident!
"Quickly, give it to the police! This way, Duan Feipeng will definitely be sentenced!" Yang Ruoxi said.

Xu Liang pondered for a moment, then raised his hand and said, "No."

"We won't give it to the police for now. Even without the video, Duan Feipeng will still be brought to court because of Du Ze's special circumstances, but he can only be acquitted."

"And, most importantly..."

Xu Liang turned to look at the boss.

"Has anyone else seen this video recently besides me?"

The boss shook his head sheepishly.

"No."

He wouldn't even dare tell the police, how could he have shown it to anyone else?

At the same time, the boss cursed Xu Liang inwardly for knowing even this, and for even being able to see it.
No one else has seen it.

"Then Zhou Ke couldn't possibly have known about the existence of the surveillance video. In other words, we found something else entirely."

Xu Liang murmured.

Zhou Ke was afraid of losing the case.

He believed that he had to bribe the opposing lawyer to win the case, and since he was unaware of the surveillance footage, the opposing side believed that the reason for losing the case was not due to the surveillance.

If so
Where could it be?!
Xu Liang looked at Yang Ruoxi, his gaze hardening.

He's going to start using the information gap to his advantage and put the other side in a favorable position!
"Don't reveal the surveillance footage to anyone!"

"Even the police!"

After he finished speaking, he looked out the window.

Zhou Ke
What exactly will happen?
Hanhai City, within the Shanshui Villa District.

"Squeak~!"

"Feipeng, you must remember every single word I say now!"

At Duan Feipeng's home.

Inside the bedroom at this time.

Inside the private space that isolates the two police officers downstairs.

Zhou Ke looked at Duan Feipeng, who was playing a game, his face full of seriousness.

"I know, I know."

"Why are you talking so much? It's just two worthless lives, is it really that big of a deal?"

Duan Feipeng spoke nonchalantly.

Unexpectedly, after these words were spoken...

Zhou Ke's expression changed instantly, and he said seriously:

"No, you didn't kill him!"

"Feipeng, remember this: you did not kill the homeless brother and sister; you know nothing about this matter!"

"Everything was orchestrated by Jiang Hai and done by Du Ze!"

"You're not close to those two. The only reason I took the case was because you were classmates with them, and I couldn't stand by and watch, so I offered my help!"

Hear the words.

Duan Feipeng paused for a moment, then nodded nonchalantly.

"alright, I got it."

"I've never seen those two bastards, and I didn't kill them."

Hear the words.

Zhou Kecai nodded.

immediately.

He then pulled out a heavy laptop.

“Write everything down here!” Zhou Ke said.

Duan Feipeng looked at the computer screen.

But see.

The screen displayed a surveillance video.

Zhou Ke clicked on it.

The surveillance footage is from the school's surveillance system.

Furthermore, the time in the upper right corner shows December 6th!
Duan Feipeng soon saw himself sleeping on the monitor.

Du Zejianghai, however, was not under surveillance at all.

only.
"Wait a minute, didn't I climb over the wall with Du Zejiang and Hai Hai this afternoon, and that's when we ran into those two bastards!?"

Duan Feipeng was surprised.

He still remembers what happened on the 6th.

I climbed over the wall to get out, which is why I encountered two homeless people.

How did I end up in the classroom according to the security camera footage?!
"Where did you get this surveillance footage from?!"

Duan Feipeng turned to look at Zhou Ke.

But Zhou Ke remained expressionless.

He stared intently into Duan Feipeng's eyes, their gazes meeting.

"No, the memories in your mind are wrong."

"Feipeng, remember this: on December 6th, you never left the school that afternoon!"

"The driver picked you up at 6 p.m. after school. You did not see Du Zejianghai on the 6th!"

"And at the time of the incident."

Zhou Ke spoke slowly and deliberately:

"us."

Not at the crime scene!!!
