Genius Detective - Chapter 333

Chapter 333: 333


Looking back at Attorney Bai's bright spirit, Lin Dongxue said in disgust, “It's absolutely shameless . Brother, take a look at the Internet . Intermittent psychosis, dual personality, and hot pot additives containing aphrodisiac ingredients were some of the reasons he made up to acquit his clients? It's shameless to make up such reasons . ”

“Well, don't always be so emotional when investigating the cases . There are quite a few people scolding him online, right? It's 10:00 now . I'll meet with Li Min . Will you come?”

“I'll stay with Chen Shi . ”

Seeing his sister say this sentence so naturally, Lin Qiupu’s heart stopped for a moment . After all, his sister would eventually grow up one day and be taken away by another man . He said, “Be careful when you go back in his car at night . . . ”

“He's not a bad guy . Besides, can't I protect myself?” Lin Dongxue waved her hand before heading upstairs .

Lin Qiupu was struggling with this all the way over to Li Min's house . He stood in front of the door to sort out his mood and appearance before he knocked on the door three times . Li Min was a thin, middle-aged man . He asked, “Police?”

“How did you know?” Lin Qiupu asked since he didn’t wear a police uniform .

“Zheng Guohao was killed, right? He still owes me a million yuan . I have an IOU here . Will his property be paid to me after the auction?”



“How do you know . . . ” Lin Qiupu seemed to understand and queried, “Attorney Bai told you?”

“Yeah, he just called me and said that you suspected that I did it . He also said that if I was sued, his law firm could take up the case, but he would take a recommendation fee for it . ”

“What nonsense!” Lin Qiupu's nostrils flared in anger . “Who allowed him to disclose the progress of the investigation? I’ll make him bear legal responsibility!”

“Officer, are you really suspecting that I did it? I was working in the supermarket at 1:00 in the afternoon!” Attorney Bai seemed to have told him everything .

“We are still investigating this . We aren’t suspecting anyone at the moment . I just wanted to know about the situation from you . . . ” Lin Qiupu saw a girl in the room poking her head out from the bedroom door . “Is anyone at home?”

“My daughter . ”

“Then, let's talk somewhere else . ”

Li Min put on a brown coat and followed Lin Qiupu out . The two sat down at a nearby luosifen stall . Li Min handed a cigarette over to him, but Lin Qiupu reached out to decline . Lin Qiupu began to ask, “What kind of occupation do you have? Also, how did you meet Zheng Guohao?“

“Ugh, don't mention it . How did I come to know that animal?! I’m a supermarket supervisor . It’s that big supermarket in front of us . I recently planned to get the retailing rights of Zheng Guohao's beef jerky and sell it in the supermarket and earn a little extra money, so I asked Zheng Guohao . . . No, this bastard Zheng . That day, I brought my daughter Tingting and some colleagues along with their families to dinner with him to talk about obtaining the retailing rights . It was a very pleasant meal . After we had finished eating, he seemed like he was a bit too drunk, so I let him lie down at my house for a while since my house was relatively close . That bastard Zheng said he wanted to have something sour to drink to cure his hangover, so I went out to buy him some soda…”




Lin Qiupu interrupted him, “Are you a single father?”

“Yes, Tingting grew up with me . ”

“Then, why did you leave your daughter alone with him in the house and buy the drinks by yourself? Shouldn't the normal situation be the other way around?”

“I . . . I was afraid she was going to meet a bad person when she went out . ”

Lin Qiupu saw through his lie and said sternly, “You better tell the truth . ”

Li Min's lips twitched and the cigarette in his mouth fell to the ground . He covered his face and cried, “I'm not a competent dad! Actually, the bastard Zheng was particularly interested in Tingting at the dinner that day . He also asked her to go to his house to play when she was free . Nine of his ten sentences were directed towards Tingting . I know that Tingting was born quite beautiful and I wanted to win the favor of this bastard Zheng, so I let Tingting accompany the bastard at home . How would I have known… How would I have known… When I went home, I heard Tingting crying and her clothes were torn apart by that animal . A fire sparked in me immediately . I didn’t care who he was . I picked up a kitchen knife and was about to chop his dick off before killing him, but the bastard Zheng knelt down and pleaded for mercy . He offered to solve the issue privately and was willing to compensate a million to us . ”

“Was he the one who proposed that sum, or was it you?”

Under the suffocating gaze of Lin Qiupu, Li Min finally admitted, “It was me!”



Sure enough, a father who was willing to stay private in such matters must be weak and greedy for money .

Li Min said, “I was thinking that Tingting was already ruined by this animal . What would come about a court case? When this kind of thing spreads, it’s not the face of that bastard Zheng that would be lost, it would be mine and my daughter’s . In the future, how would Tingting be able to marry someone? Who would still want her? It’s meaningless to lose energy, face, and money to try and seek justice . It’s better to ask the bastard to bleed a little . With this million, I can send Tingting to a good university . In the future, I can still buy a house for her, which is also good for her . . . When the bastard Zheng wrote the IOU and inked his fingerprint on it, I thought this would all be over . At night, I comforted Tingting the whole night and watched her cry . I didn't feel good about it, The more I thought about it, the angrier I got . One million was too little . It wasn’t easy for me to raise my daughter and she was ruined by this animal that was raised by a dog . It would take at least five million to dispel my hate!”

“Of course, the IOU was already set in stone, so there was nothing I could do but accept it! Later, I kept urging him and the bastard Zheng said that he had a million in hand, but it needed to be used as circulating capital . If he was to take it out, he would lose more than 10 million and he’d be sued . . . A mountain was covered by clouds, mist, and fog . He just kept stalling me . I warned him that if he didn’t give me the money, he would see us in court . Tingting is a minor, and raping a young girl would be sentenced harshly . The death penalty was possible too! The bastard Zheng kept paying me money . He gave me about 20,000 or 30,000 . . . “ Looking at Lin Qiupu's eyes, Li Min didn't dare to lie again and retracted, “He gave me 100,000 yuan!”

“When did you receive it?”

“Once in a while . ” Li Min's eyes flickered a little .

“Okay, I'll check this information when I get back . Thank you for your cooperation . ”

“Don’t worry . What I said is the truth . ”

Li Min emphasized this because Lin Qiupu seemed a little suspicious of him .

After saying goodbye, Lin Qiupu returned to the bureau . There was a scent of grilled skewers in the corridor . It turned out that Chen Shi invited everyone to eat . Chen Shi held up a bunch of grilled eggplants and said, “Captain Lin, why don’t you have one? I paid for this with my own money . ”

Lin Qiupu misunderstood what he meant and said, “Don't expect the team to reimburse even this kind of stuff . ”

“I didn't mean that . I mean . . . Forget it, you won't understand my recent distress . ” Chen Shi lowered his head and bit into the grilled eggplant .

Lin Qiupu asked about the current clues on hand . Peng Sijue was still doing an autopsy, and a third set of footprints was found at the crime scene . From the size, it seemed like it belonged to a woman . They couldn’t be sure whether the murderer had left them after they put on sole covers to divert the attention away from their real size .

The surveillance footage from the community was brought back and it was still being screened slowly . The community security who had seen the deceased at noon claimed that the deceased was the only person in the car .

Chen Shi found some unsightly photos in a hollowed-out book at the deceased's house, which seemed to be the bodies of young girls . The information department browsed the records from the deceased's computer and also confirmed that the deceased may have been a pedophile .

In addition, the deceased's credit card statement showed that he withdrew 100,000 yuan in cash yesterday at noon . . .

1 . They’re boiled rice noodles served in soup made from a stock that consists of pork bones and river snails .

2 . It’s an expression that’s used to describe people that make up stories and excuses .
