A perfect crime? To me, it's full of flaws!

Upon hearing the young police officer's report, Wu Di instinctively looked at Qi Feng.

Qi Feng hadn't expected it to be such a coincidence.

"Come on, Dige, let's go see this best friend of yours."

Led by Wu Di, the two passed through the noisy office and arrived in the corridor.

Shortly after, a young girl dragging a suitcase appeared at the end of the corridor, accompanied by a policewoman.

The girl was about twenty-five or twenty-six years old. She looked haggard, with red eyes, and appeared travel-worn, clearly having come straight here after getting off the bus.

Beside her was a man, presumably her boyfriend Chen Liang.

The policewoman led Liu Shuang into an interrogation room, while Chen Liang was left outside.

Interrogation differs from interrogation. To ease the tension of the person being interrogated, a large number of personnel are usually not arranged, and there is no observation room.

Therefore, Qi Feng and Wu Di could only wait outside.

Qi Feng looked at Chen Liang waiting outside the door and walked over.

"Chen Liang, Mr. Chen, right?"

Chen Liang stopped and looked at Qi Feng: "I am Qi Feng, and who are you?"

"My name is Qi Feng, and I'm in charge of investigating Feng Qianqian's case. It'll probably take a while inside. If you don't mind, shall we sit down next door and wait a bit?" Qi Feng said, pointing to an empty office next door.

Chen Liang glanced at the closed door of the interrogation room and nodded: "Okay, thank you for your help."

Inside the lounge.

Qi Feng poured Chen Liang a glass of water, then pulled out a chair and casually sat down opposite him.

"How many years have you known Feng Qianqian?" Qi Feng asked in a calm tone.

Chen Liang held his water glass, took a small sip, and then answered.

"It's been more than three years. My girlfriend Liu Shuang met Qianqian first. They both love playing escape rooms, and they got to know each other over time. At that time, Qianqian wasn't famous yet."

"So, have Feng Qianqian and Liu Shuang maintained such a good relationship all these years?" Qi Feng continued to ask.

"They've always been very close. Not long after they met, Qianqian's book was published and became an instant hit. I thought that since they were in different circles, their relationship would gradually fade, but to my surprise, it not only didn't fade, it actually got even better."

"Oh? Why is that?" Qi Feng asked curiously.

"At first, I was also puzzled. My girlfriend is just an ordinary office worker, while Qianqian is already a famous writer. Our social circles are completely different. But Qianqian always says that after meeting Liu Shuang, her books became bestsellers, and Liu Shuang is her benefactor."

A benefactor? Interesting.

Chen Liang, oblivious to Qi Feng's change in expression, continued, "Plus, my girlfriend's personality is a bit... how should I put it, a bit like a boy, very impulsive. When we were playing escape rooms, she was always protective of Qianqian. So, their relationship just got stronger and stronger."

Qi Feng expressed his understanding upon hearing this.

A single, female writer living alone in an unfamiliar city is emotionally sensitive and vulnerable. The appearance of Liu Shuang, a protector, perfectly fills her need for security.

"To your knowledge, does Feng Qianqian have any other close friends?" Qi Feng continued to ask.

"She does have a few casual friends, mostly editors and staff at publishing houses. Most of the time, they get together because of work. You know, most novelists are homebodies, spending all their time at home writing. So, apart from work people, she really doesn't have many friends."

"So, in the past few years in the provincial capital, the people closest to Feng Qianqian are you and your girlfriend," Qi Feng concluded.

"Yes. Liu Shuang takes great care of Qianqian. She often takes her out to eat, afraid that she'll be bored by herself. Even on Valentine's Day, she brings her along, and the three of us spend it together. Sometimes when we have a fight, Liu Shuang will go and stay at Qianqian's place," Chen Liang nodded and said.

"So, your real boyfriend, has never been jealous?" Qi Feng asked casually.

"Hey, why would I be jealous? She's just a young girl, working hard in this city on her own. It's not easy for her."

After Chen Liang finished speaking, his gaze drifted towards the door, appearing somewhat uneasy. He then asked, "Officer, how long will this interrogation... take?"

"It'll be quick, it's all part of the normal procedure, don't worry," Qi Feng reassured him.

The voice just fell.

Then the sound of a door opening could be heard outside.

Chen Liang immediately got up from his seat and walked out.

Qi Feng followed him out.

At this moment, the door to the interrogation room opened, and Liu Shuang walked out, her face still covered in tears, clearly having just had a good cry.

"Xiao Shuang!"

Chen Liang immediately went to meet her, gently patted her back, and asked her something in a low voice.

The two then left the municipal bureau.
