Detective: Open your eyes, I am handcuffed in the interrogation room

Chapter 2 Chen Yi’s proposal

trial room.

Chen Yi and Zhou Yebin looked at each other.

Captain Zhou was calm and polite and did not treat him as a criminal for the time being.

What is a suspect?
Those suspected of committing a crime are called suspects, not criminals.

A suspect remains a suspect until trial.

Even if you have confessed, you are still a suspect.

Experienced detectives all know that in this world, anything bizarre can happen.

The murderer you think may not be the murderer after all.

The person you thought you had eliminated may turn out to be the murderer.

True and false, false and true.

Criminal investigation requires keen insight and a calm mind. You must not be swayed by emotions, let alone take it for granted.

In Zhou Yebin's view, Chen Yi is indeed a major suspect in this case.

but……

What the other party just said is right, there are indeed some problems with motivation.

Economic disputes always kill lenders, how can they kill borrowers?

This situation is extremely rare.

Moreover, Chen Yi is not short of money.

When investigating a case, of course we must start from the perspective of high probability.

Therefore, he needed to listen carefully to what Chen Yi said.

After Chen Yi was quiet for a while, he said, "I didn't go to Liu Ge's house to ask for an account. I didn't even mention the money issue. I don't lack the money."

"He is my college classmate and we have a very good relationship. We have kept in touch since graduation."

"On the day of the incident, I was just passing by and went to his house to sit for a while."

Zhou Yebin: "Is it that simple?"

Chen Yi nodded: "It's that simple."

Zhou Yebin: "Then how do you explain that your fingerprints are on the murder weapon?"

Chen Yidao: "Before I answer this question, I want to ask, was the murder weapon a fruit knife?"

Zhou Yebin didn't hide anything: "Yes."

Hearing this, Chen Yi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "In this case, it will be easier to explain."

"When I was at Liu Ge's house, I once cut an orange with a fruit knife."

"You must have surveyed the scene, so this should be confirmed."

Hearing this, Zhou Yebin and the young man next to him looked at each other. The former nodded: "Yes, there are indeed leftover orange peels in the trash can at the scene."

"But..." He changed his voice the next moment and said, "How do we know that you didn't kill Liu Ge with that fruit knife after eating the orange?"

Chen Yi was helpless: "Captain Zhou, you did it the other way around."

Zhou Yebin was surprised: "What's wrong?"

Chen Yidao: "I am just an ordinary person. In this case, you need to prove my guilt, not my innocence."

"Isn't this the opposite?"

"If someone comes after me and kills Liu Ge with a fruit knife while wearing gloves, can I explain clearly?"

Zhou Yebin was speechless.

This possibility is real.

but……

Seeing Zhou Yebin's silence, Chen Yi thought of a possibility and said speechlessly: "Don't tell me that the surveillance system is broken."

Surveillance is one of the important means of modern criminal investigation.

The Skynet system was built to combat illegal crimes.

The so-called Skynet is sparse and not leaking, and the dense coverage of cameras in the city is a huge deterrent to criminals and is also an important magic weapon for the police to investigate cases.

But the effect of force is reciprocal.

Modern development benefits not only the police, but also criminals.

You can set up monitoring, and I can also destroy monitoring.

It can even carry out high-tech crimes, making investigation extremely difficult.

Chen Yi understood that the experienced Captain Zhou in front of him would definitely investigate and monitor the scene.

The purpose of investigation and surveillance is to determine who has been in and out of the deceased's home before and after the incident.

If he is the only one who comes in and out, then a complete chain of evidence will be formed.

At that time, even if he is full of words, he will not be able to quibble.

However, it is not.

Zhou Yebin had an inquiring attitude since he woke up.This shows that the other party is not [-]% sure that he is the real culprit who killed Liu Ge.

Indirectly, there is no gain in monitoring.

The community where Liu Ge lives is a high-end community. There are surveillance cameras at the entrance of the community, at the entrance of the corridor, in the elevator, and in the entrance corridor.

Even if most surveillance cameras can be avoided through blind spots, the final entrance corridor is absolutely inescapable.

Therefore, anyone who comes in or out of Liu Ge's house will be photographed by surveillance cameras.

Since the police cannot determine who has been in Liu Ge's house, it means there must be a problem with the surveillance.

At this moment, Zhou Yebin took a deep breath, stared at Chen Yi and said, "You are different from what I imagined."

Chen Yi chuckled: "Oh? How do you say this?"

Zhou Yebin said: "If the murderer is not you, then it is not possible for ordinary people to accurately determine that the surveillance has been destroyed and the footprints on the scene cannot restore the incident."

"Chen Yi, you don't look like an idle rich second generation. And why did your personality change a lot after you woke up?"

"Could you explain that?"

Chen Yi shrugged: "It's simple, because I'm sure I'm not the murderer."

"And... I am indeed different from what you imagined."

"As for the personality change... now, I am the real me."

The time-travel thing cannot be explained, so just fool it through.

If you really say you've traveled through time, you'll be sent to a mental hospital if you don't keep it all.

Zhou Yebin narrowed his eyes with scrutiny.

These words seemed to explain it, but they seemed not to explain it.

And...it meant something, but he couldn't understand it.

The young man beside him couldn't help but said: "Captain Zhou, he is highly suspected of committing the crime. Don't listen to his nonsense."

"Perhaps he sabotaged the surveillance. He found excuses for everything in advance and packaged himself as an unjust victim."

Chen Yi glanced at him, but his heart did not waver.

From the police's point of view, there is no problem that he is suspected of committing a crime, and it is not deliberately targeted.

Only a keen old detective can catch the suspicious points in this case.

As for catching the real culprit...

Then it depends on the ability of Captain Zhou in front of him.

But now, he already has an investigation direction, and the accuracy is extremely high.

Unfortunately, he is a suspect in this case and cannot participate in the investigation of the case.

Unless Zhou Yebin takes the initiative to ask.

"Who do you think the murderer will be?"

Zhou Yebin ignored the young man beside him and asked.

Chen Yi was surprised and asked in confusion: "Ask me?"

Zhou Yebin nodded: "Yes."

"You have a very good relationship with Liu Ge, and you naturally understand his interpersonal relationships."

"Since you insist that you are not the murderer, are there any doubters?"

"Who has any conflict with Liu Ge?"

Chen Yi thought about it seriously, shook his head and said, "I don't know."

This answer made Zhou Yebin frown.

"but……"

Chen Yi's voice continued to sound.

"Although I don't know who has conflicts with Liu Ge, I know how to find this person."

"Captain Zhou, are you interested?"

Zhou Yebin was stunned.

All the police officers in the interrogation room also looked over subconsciously.

What does this mean?
Are you a suspect and want to help the police investigate the case?

This is really a strange thing, I have never encountered it before.

The young man next to Zhou Yebin was also stunned for a moment and almost didn't react.

"You are joking?"

Zhou Yebin frowned deeper.

Chen Yi smiled and said, "Of course not, I'm very serious."

"If Captain Zhou is interested, how about identifying the real murderer within a day?"

The last sentence made the interrogation room so silent that you could hear a pin drop.
