The next day, Ji Jie led Tian Rui and the others to catch the "flying wolf," while Zhang Yang went to investigate Shen Wei's situation.

After visiting Shen Wei's neighbors and teachers at school, Zhang Yang discovered Shen Wei's family situation.

Shen Wei was originally a child raised in a single-parent family. Her mother died early and her father raised her alone. She lacked love and care, but her father doted on her and bought her a computer for the house.

Unexpectedly, Shen Wei became obsessed with chat rooms and chat software, and met a netizen on one of them.

Zhang Yang also found that netizen, who turned out to be a student as well, but... Zhang Yang didn't know how to describe this person.

"Your name."

"My name is Qin Zhi, Zhi as in ambition."

Zhang Yang looked at Qin Zhi and said, "Say what you just said again."

Qin Zhi looked at Zhang Yang indifferently and said, "Hey officer, do you even know what love is? Me and her... what was her name again?"

"Never mind, it doesn't matter. Our love is pure."

Zhang Yang laughed and said, "You have a lot of love affairs, huh? I've investigated at least ten. What do you think would happen if I talked to all ten of them?"

Qin Zhi was taken aback for a moment, then said, "Officer, you have an obligation to protect citizens' personal information."

Zhang Yang shook his head and said, "No, no, no, you are a suspect now because Shen Wei was under eighteen years old when you met her."

Qin Zhi became even more frightened upon hearing this and said, "No, no, no, you've got it wrong. She's already over eighteen. She told me herself that it was all voluntary, there was no coercion whatsoever."

Zhang Yang said, "According to the criminal law, having a relationship with a minor constitutes rape, regardless of whether the other party consents. Moreover, Shen Wei doesn't even know that your feelings for her are only physical. You haven't even remembered her name, so what are you talking about as love?"

Qin Zhi got scared and quickly said, "No, no, no, officer, I know. That Shen Wei said she loves me very much, and that someone is slandering our relationship. She also said she would break off relations with that person, but I don't remember who she was talking about."

Zhang Yang looked at him and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Qin, I'm afraid you won't be able to go home today. We will contact your school to ask for leave for you."

Then he said to the police officer behind Qin Zhi, "Take him out first."

Zhang Yang then went to Lao Zheng's office.

Old Zheng looked at Zhang Yang and asked, "How is it?"

Zhang Yang said, "It's already been revealed. He said that Shen Wei had the relationship with him willingly, and that someone close to Shen Wei was trying to sow discord between them. I suggest we bring Shen Wei back for questioning first; maybe we can find evidence."

Old Zheng lit a cigarette, looked at Zhang Yang, and said, "Are you confident?"

Zhang Yang nodded and said, "I wouldn't say 100%, but it's probably 80-90% likely."

Old Zheng said, "Okay, I'll issue the order. Go and bring the person over. Remember, it's to gather information, not to detain or interrogate him."

Zhang Yang smiled and said, "I understand."

Zhang Yang, accompanied by two police officers, arrived at the gate of Shen Wei's school and took out his phone to call her.

Shen Wei arrived at the school gate soon.

"Why isn't Officer Ji here?"

Zhang Yang said with a smile, "She went to handle a case. This time, I'm in charge of questioning you about some things."

Shen Wei asked, somewhat puzzled, "Can't I ask here? I have to go back to school later."

Zhang Yang said, "It's alright, we'll bring you back in a bit. Get in the car."

Shen Wei then got into the car, which drove to the police station.

After arriving at the station, Zhang Yang led Shen Wei toward the interrogation room. During this process, Shen Wei saw Qin Zhi in the next room, her body stiffened for a moment, and she lowered her head guiltily.

After entering the interrogation room, Shen Wei sat opposite Zhang Yang. Zhang Yang asked, "I want to know if your relationship with Xiao Yue is really as good as you say?"

Shen Wei raised her head, tears welling in her eyes, and said, "Our relationship is very good, extremely good."

Zhang Yang asked, "What were you doing the day Xiaoyue had the accident?"

Shen Wei said, "I'm at home. I've always been at home."

Zhang Yang took out the documents and said, "Shen Wei, think it over before you answer."

Shen Wei's forehead began to sweat as she looked at Zhang Yang and said, "I..."

Zhang Yang slammed his hand on the table and said, "Shen Wei, you're still not being honest."

"You didn't expect us to investigate you, did you? Let me tell you, Shen Wei, you're underestimating the police."

"Explain yourself clearly: what were you doing that afternoon and evening?"

Shen Wei remained silent.

At this moment, Tian Rui walked in and handed Zhang Yang a folder. After Zhang Yang opened it, he found that "The Flying Wolf" had said that when he called Xiao Yue that afternoon, a girl was cursing at Xiao Yue.

Zhang Yang nodded to Tian Rui. After Tian Rui left, Zhang Yang said to Shen Wei, "Shen Wei, 'The Flying Wolf' has confessed. He said that when he called Xiao Yue that afternoon, a girl was next to Xiao Yue, fiercely cursing and saying, 'What are you arguing about?'"

Upon hearing this, Shen Wei instantly erupted, shouting, "Because she said 'Flying Wolf' is better than my online friends, I won't allow her to insult my online friends. I love my online friends, and it's unacceptable for her to insult them."

Two policewomen behind her forcefully pressed her into a chair. Shen Wei said, "I haven't been eating or sleeping well these past few days. I'm always afraid you'll come and arrest me."

Zhang Yang looked at Shen Wei and asked, "What did you use to hit Xiaoyue?"

"A hammer," Shen Wei said. "It's the kind they use for repairing cars. I was so stunned at the time, I didn't think about anything."

Zhang Yang then asked, "Where's the computer?"

Shen Wei said, "When I hit her the first time, she dodged, so I hit the computer instead."

Zhang Yang said, "Do you know that your online friend can't even remember your name? You still love him? You're overthinking it. He's just after your body. He's despicable, you know that?"

"I have his statement here. He told us about your situation. You have no one but your online friend Qin Zhi, but he has had at least ten girlfriends besides you. You don't even qualify as a mistress."

Shen Wei stared blankly at Zhang Yang and said, "I don't believe it."

Zhang Yang said, "I don't need you to believe me. I just want to wake you up. You killed your friend Xiaoyue for a piece of trash, and he didn't even know your name."

Shen Wei sat there, seemingly devoid of energy, her eyes vacant.

Zhang Yang stood up and said, "Shen Wei, I hope you'll think this over carefully." Then he said to the two policewomen, "Take her out."

Back in the office, Ji Jie looked at Zhang Yang and said, "Not bad, you've graduated."

Zhang Yang said with a smile, "You guys were all listening in next door, huh?"

Tian Rui walked over and said, "Yes, your interrogation skills are really good. You have a bit of Sister Ji's style. We just took down 'The Flying Wolf' and you found the real culprit."

Zhang Yang said, "I just feel that even if 'Flying Wolf' couldn't get her body, there was no need for him to kill someone and smash their computer. There were no signs of assault on Xiaoyue's body, so it could only be a crime of passion. I initially thought that Xiaoyue and Shen Wei's online friend were the same person, but I never expected it to turn out like this."

Old Zheng came out and said, "Alright, the case is solved, let's go home."
