Arranged marriage, love blossoms; a fiercely devoted soldier dotes on her alone.

at this time,

in the room,

Hideko Mu was extremely nervous.

Excessive tension caused fine beads of sweat to appear on her forehead, and her body trembled slightly uncontrollably.

Because Mu Xiuzi discovered that the man who asked her the question not only had sharp words, but also even sharper eyes, as if he could see right through her.

Xiao Zhan took in every expression on Mu Xiuzi's face...

He asked, "According to what you said, if Lin Zijian was on top of you at the time, even if you reached for the fruit knife on the coffee table, you couldn't have stabbed him in the back and pierced his chest. If you were under him and got the knife, you should have stabbed Lin Zijian in the shoulder or waist. That would make logical sense."

"Think carefully about whether what I said is right or wrong."

Upon hearing this, both Li Chaobing and Xia Keke couldn't help but look at Mu Xiuzi. Li Chaobing even picked up the interrogation record that the police had just taken and looked at it.

Mu Xiuzi was unable to answer Xiao Zhan's question. Her face turned red and she stammered, "At that time, I was already mentally broken. My mind was dizzy and I didn't know what was going on. When I heard Lin Zijian scream and fall on the carpet, and saw the fruit knife in my hand, I realized that I had killed Lin Zijian."

Xiao Zhan continued, "Oh, by the way, I saw that fruit knife you mentioned in the evidence bag, but I can tell you definitively that the wounds on the deceased's body were not caused by the fruit knife at all."

"It was the wound from the dagger."

"How do you explain that?"

"boom!"

Kiki felt as if her head had been blown open by a bomb, her brain throbbing with pain, and her thoughts were in complete disarray, as if her brain was a jumbled mess.

Mu Xiuzi knew that everything Xiao Zhan said made sense, just like he had witnessed her killing Lin Zijian at the scene.

Then, Mu Xiuzi appeared pale, drenched in sweat, and clutching her head, muttering, "My head hurts so much, I need to see a lawyer."

Xiao Zhan took a drag of his cigarette and said to Li Chaobing, "Director Li, I've finished asking my questions. Mu Xiuzi's testimony doesn't match the wounds on the deceased's body. I can say with certainty that Lin Zijian was kneeling or sitting on the carpet at the time, and the murderer stabbed him in the chest with a dagger from behind when he wasn't paying attention, killing him."

After Xiao Zhan finished speaking, he left the room. Xia Keke followed closely behind and whispered, "Xiao Zhan, are you so sure?"

Xiao Zhan stopped and turned to look at Xia Keke, saying, "You can doubt my character, but you can't doubt my professionalism. I am a special forces king. I am not only familiar with all kinds of firearms, but I also know the operating characteristics of all kinds of cold weapons. The blades of a fruit knife and a dagger are completely different."

"Furthermore, if Lin Zijian had been lying on top of Mu Xiuzi at the time, Mu Xiuzi wouldn't have been able to stab Lin Zijian in the back."

"Wait for the forensic report results, then you can see if what I said is correct."

At this moment, Li Chaobing came out and ordered the two policemen standing at the door: "Take the suspect back to the station for further interrogation. From now on, no one can see her without my permission, including her lawyer. You should know how to talk to her, right?"

"I understand, Chief!"

The two police officers responded.

At this moment, Lin Ruoxi walked over and said, "Xiao Zhan, what should we do now? I need to take my father home to hold the funeral."

Xiao Zhan looked at Li Chaobing and asked, "Director Li, when can our family take the deceased back to hold the funeral?"

Li Chaobing looked at the scene and said, "Once the forensic doctor finishes the autopsy and the death certificate is issued, the family can take the body back."

Xiao Zhan: "May I see the two witnesses?"

Li Chaobing glanced at Xia Keke, who nodded.

Li Chaobing said, "Of course, but it can't take too long, and our people should be present to record the interrogation process."

Xiao Zhan: "Of course, no problem."

Li Chaobing said to a policeman next to him, "Take Mr. Xiao to see the two witnesses, Lin Weihua and Ishida Mako, and accompany him at the scene the whole time."

"yes! "

The police officer responded.

Then he said to Xiao Zhan, "Mr. Xiao, please come with me."

Lin Ruoxi: "Can I go too?"

Xiao Zhan: "You'd better not go. Don't worry, I will get justice for my uncle."

Xiao Zhan and Xia Keke entered the next room and saw Lin Weihai sitting dejectedly in a chair, with two policemen questioning him. When Xiao Zhan and Xia Keke walked in, the two policemen looked at Xiao Zhan with great surprise.

The policeman who brought him in said, "Chief Li has ordered that Mr. Xiao speak with the witness."

Xiao Zhan: "Thank you, comrades. I only have one question: Lin Weihua, where were you when my uncle had the accident?"

Lin Weihao looked at Xiao Zhan, surprised that Xiao Zhan had come and questioned him.

At this moment, Lin Weihao had an extremely bad feeling.

But there was no time to think too much, so he could only say according to the plan the three of them had discussed: "I was discussing some details and affixing the official seal with Ms. Mako in the next room when I suddenly heard the master shout. I knew something had happened, so I rushed over and saw the master lying on the carpet covered in blood and already dead. At that time, Mu Xiuzi was holding a fruit knife, and blood was still dripping from the tip of the knife."

Xiao Zhan and Xia Keke exchanged a glance; they both knew that Lin Weihao had lied.

So the question is, why did Lin Weihao lie?

He was Lin Zijian's most trusted confidant. Anyone could betray Lin Zijian, but he shouldn't have.

There's only one answer: Lin Weihao must have received a benefit, and a very large one at that, to make him lie.

Or perhaps Lin Wei-hao was originally...

Thinking this, Xiao Zhan snapped out of his reverie and looked at Lin Weihai, asking, "When you saw Lin Zijian being stabbed, was he wearing clothes?"

This is crucial because Mu Xiuzi said that Lin Zijian raped her on the sofa at the time.

Lin Weihao: "The old man was wearing a shirt at the time, but his pants were pulled down to his ankles, Mu Xiuzi's business suit was lifted up to her waist, and her white underwear was thrown on the carpet. That's how it was at the time."

Xiao Zhan did see a white pair of women's underwear in the police's evidence bag just now.

Xiao Zhan: "Do you have anything to add?"

Lin Weihao said with a pained expression, "Young master, the master's crime doesn't deserve to die. You must avenge him!"

Xiao Zhan said expressionlessly, "I will. A life for a life, a debt for a debt—this is an unchanging truth since ancient times."

As Xiao Zhan walked out of the room, Xia Keke whispered, "Did you notice that Lin Weihai's eyes looked strange when he was talking?"

Why would he lie?

Xiao Zhan: "I don't know, but we'll find out soon enough."

Xia Keke: "If you go to see Mako Ishida, I won't go."

Xiao Zhan asked curiously, "Why?"

Xia Keke: "I met her once before, and we both know what the other does, but we just can't find any evidence, so I think it's best to avoid her."

Xiao Zhan: "Alright then!"

So he followed the policeman into another room and saw a woman in her thirties sitting in a chair.

The woman's fair face resembled the finest jade, and her high-coiffed hair complemented the white business suit that tightly hugged her curvaceous body.

Her long legs, clad in black stockings and the latest Prada high heels, gave her a deadly allure.

She had a tall, curvaceous figure, fair skin, slender eyebrows, and long, dark eyelashes that fluttered slightly in her dark pupils.

Mako Ishida possesses a unique intellectual beauty.

At this moment, the policeman said, "Ishida Mako, please answer Mr. Xiao's questions truthfully."

Ishida Mako raised an eyebrow and asked, "Mr. Xiao? Shouldn't the police be questioning me?"

"If Mr. Xiao is not a police officer, I have the right to refuse to answer his questions, and I want to see my lawyer."

Xiao Zhan sneered, "Ishida Mako, what are you afraid of?"

"I just want to know, where were you and Lin Weihai when Lin Zijian and Mu Xiuzi were arguing in your office for so long?"

Mako Ishida stated bluntly, "I refuse to answer your question."
