Chapter 245: Chapter 244: First Time Wearing a Police Uniform
ShuangâEr means someone who is into both men and women.
When describing a personâs sexual orientation, most people use straight or bent, but naturally, the police also have their slang, like 0 or 1.
There are few who are gay, and even fewer who are bisexual. I didnât expect to have such a surprise today.
Su Qing poured himself a glass of water. Even though he hadnât been to the police station many times, he seemed quite at ease, especially in this small office.
"What does this explain? Being bisexual doesnât mean being gay. People like women too, okay?" Su Qing said, sitting in a chair and drinking water.
Hearing this, Du Qiang smiled slightly: "Of course, thereâs more. Under my careful questioning, Huang Zhiming revealed some secrets. That Fang Wen once tried to settle privately with him, but he didnât agree at the time."
"Couldnât settle privately, so prepared to go through legal procedures?" Su Qing asked.
Du Qiang nodded: "Not only that, the test results came out, and they are undoubtedly Huang Zhimingâs. This is about to confirm the case conclusively."
"Wait, from what you say, Fang Wen wanted to settle privately only to get some compensation. Now that the case is about to be confirmed, then she..." Su Qing asked with doubt.
Although he already knew the outcome, legal details and such were all within the realm of ordinary people, so naturally, he didnât have the perspective to view the case itself.
No wonder investigating a case takes so much brain power. As someone who knows the outcome, even he finds these details mind-boggling, not to mention others.
"You might not know this, but if the case is confirmed, Fang Wen has the right to issue a letter of forgiveness, which can reduce the sentence, or even, with some means, avoid punishment altogether. If you follow that thought, sheâs using a strategy to pull the rug out," Du Qiang pondered aloud.
With his visits and investigations deepening the case details, he could start to infer more. In his heart, he was already leaning towards Su Qingâs idea.
"But even so, thereâs clearly no issue with the bodily fluid test report, and thereâs no key evidence?" Su Qing refuted.
Evidence is the ultimate weight that sways the truth.
But Du Qiang, unhurried, continued: "Through the recent investigations by me and Sister Li, there were six people present that night. Among them, four were the main players: Fang Wen, the girl who accompanied her that day named Jiang Jiayan, Huang Zhiming, and Fang Wenâs boyfriend Li Zhuo.
Huang Zhiming is bisexual, so given that, do you know who the other man is?"
Upon hearing this, Su Qing instantly felt a bit nauseous: "Donât tell me itâs..."
"Yes, itâs Fang Wenâs boyfriend Li Zhuo. The last time something happened between them was three days before Fang Wenâs incident. The craziest part is that night, it wasnât just the two men; Jiang Jiayan was also there. The most crucial point is, according to Huang Zhiming himself, the day after the incident, he did wake up on Fang Wenâs bed with nothing on, but he doesnât remember what happened the night before, which means he was too drunk to be conscious. Out of fear, he left before Fang Wen woke up. Itâs important to know, a drunk and unconscious person doesnât have that ability, unless he lied, but given the situation, the chances of him lying are slim!" Du Qiang said with a smile.
After hearing this, Su Qing couldnât help widening his eyes. A simple case of extortion was this complicated?
His brain couldnât keep up.
"Are you saying... that bodily fluid could very likely be the work of Fang Wenâs boyfriend and the other girl?"
Du Qiang nodded: "There is quite a possibility. Although Fang Wenâs place is in an old complex with no surveillance, the bar they went to that night does have it. By checking the footage, we found that when they left, Huang Zhiming was already drunk, and it was another man who helped him out. Li Zhuo picked him up outside. We confirmed this through our visits. Now, the only blank spot in the timeline is that segment without surveillance."
Regarding this, Su Qing was completely numb. So thrilling... ahem, so sinister!
"So, what are you planning to do now?"
"Sister Li has taken them to the interrogation room for confrontation. We called you because youâre good at this. Sister Li wants you to go and put some pressure on Fang Wen and them. Captain Lin also thinks itâs best for you to go."
Well then, itâs true that hearing a story is more thrilling than just seeing the result.
The narration only told him the outcome. Itâs not as exciting as now, but exciting as it is, it looks like itâs time for him to work.
"I can go, but let me make it clear, I canât guarantee success."
"No worries, weâve got your back, just go all out!" Du Qiang had exceptional confidence in him.
"Also, give me a police uniform!"
"Ah, well..."
"Ah, my foot. I donât care. Without a police uniform, thereâs no deterrence. If it really doesnât work, take off the one youâre wearing for me!" Su Qing said with a side glance.
Heâs been craving this police uniform for ages. If he canât get one officially, heâll settle for taking someone elseâs.
Ten minutes later, Su Qing walked out of the office in a smart police uniform. With chestnut hair, a light blue long-sleeve uniform tucked into his pants, a belt at the waist, a tie on the chest, along with insignia, arm patches, and a badge number, he even didnât miss Wang Xingâs wristwatch. At a glance, he really looked like a sharp young officer, the hottest in the police station.
The only downside was that the shoes were a bit tight.
After he left, Wang Xing was left shivering in the office, wearing nothing but his underwear and a pair of socks, arms crossed.
"Officer, I really drank too much that day, I donât remember anything!" A man with medium-length hair, parted three to seven, explained excitedly.
"Huang Zhiming, youâre still trying to argue, the test report clearly points to you, you shameless scoundrel, how could you do such a thing!" The woman who came with Fang Wen last time pointed at Huang Zhiming and shouted angrily.
Immediately following, another man with dyed yellow hair and tattoos on his arm also spoke up: "Huang, Iâm your brother, and you dared to do such a thing to Wenwen, just wait, this isnât over!"
As for Fang Wen, just like last time, she was still sobbing.
Hearing the quarrel among the people, Shen Yiâs pen snapped in two with a âcrack,â veins bulging on her forehead, especially after hearing the term âofficer aunty,â which completely pissed her off.
These people in front of her, the youngest is at least 24, and the oldest, Li Zhuo, is 27, and you call me aunty? Your whole family is aunty.
However, after years as a police officer, she has learned to suppress her emotions, though she still felt annoyed inwardly.
Just then, the door to the inquiry room opened, and a tall figure walked in, sitting straight next to Li Zijun.
"How is it going now?" Su Qing loosened his tie and asked casually.
Hmm, the move was very stylish and suave. If it were a short video, it would surely go viral, he thought to himself.
Indeed, this was a deliberately designed move, no other reason, just handsome, a bit excited about wearing a police uniform for the first time.
"Why are you dressed like that? Whereâs Du Qiang?" Li Zijun couldnât help but widen her eyes and asked.
When Su Qing had pushed the door out a moment ago, she was somewhat bewildered because she never imagined Su Qing would appear before her like this, a mix of surprise, delight, and even amazement filled her heart.
"I heard someone needed me, so I came to help. As for Qiang... have you ever seen a grown man wearing a Sea Babyâs shorts?"
Li Zijun: ...
She didnât know what happened upstairs just now, but with Su Qing saying that, she started to imagine it, and gave an involuntary shiver.
"Go ahead!" Su Qing said with a smile, then looked at the two men and two women present. In his police uniform, no one could question his identity, and his sharp eyes scanned back and forth across the four peopleâs faces, seemingly able to see through peopleâs hearts, giving everyone in the room quite a bit of pressure.
"This is Officer Su, heâs specialized in psychology, and your little tricks wonât fool him. Itâs in your best interest to tell the truth now. If youâre caught lying, the consequences will be very unfavorable for you," Li Zijun glanced at everyone, briefly introducing Su Qing, then looked at Fang Wen and said:
"Based on our understanding, before you reported to the police, you had a private discussion with Huang Zhiming and wanted to settle privately?"
"I... I did see him, but just to confirm if it was him!" Fang Wen choked up as she spoke.
"Youâre lying, you asked me for 100,000 yuan back then, or youâd call the police!"
"Youâre the one lying, slandering me, are you saying this test report is fake? How dare you say itâs not you?" Li Zhuo shouted angrily.
To this, Su Qing slapped the table with a bang and said in a deep voice, "Did I tell you to speak? Shut up!"
It wasnât clear if it was due to his strong presence or the intimidation of the police uniform, but Li Zhuo bit his teeth and dared not retort, then Su Qing looked at Fang Wen and said in a deep voice:
"Before the test report came out, there were three men. Based on what we know, why did you only choose to verify with Huang Zhiming?"
"I... naturally confirmed with all of them on the phone..."
[A poor lie, easily debunked]
"Youâre lying, Li Zhuo is your boyfriend, I wonât ask him. Sister Jun, quickly call the other guy to confront him face to face. All of you, put your hands on the table, no one is allowed to touch their phone!"
Su Qingâs swift tone caught the three of them off guard.
"I live in the same community as Wenwen. The morning after, I saw a man running out of Wenwenâs unit in a panic, his back looked a lot like him, so I wanted to test him. His eyes on Wenwen have always been off. Who knew heâd panic on his own, and besides, isnât there evidence now?" Jiang Jiayan hurriedly explained.
[A guilty lie, but unable to expose, without evidence]
Su Qing gave her a glance, his eyes sharp as knives, then said in a deep voice, "You actually have some detective potential."
Then looked at Li Zijun and asked: "Sister Jun, in such a serious criminal case, what are the penalties for giving false testimony?"
"It depends on the severity. In serious cases, it could even be more than three years in prison."
"Isnât it detention for more than five days and less than ten days?" Jiang Jiayan was shocked and asked back.
Everyone: ...
