Butterfly Net【43】(1/2)
Wu Xiaoshuang was brought back by Qiao Shishi before Yang Shu arrived. She didn't know that the lies were exposed. Sun Shibin was arrested, but he was alert to the fact that Yu Chu Xingyun's eyes were suddenly mixed with a lot of ferocity and hostility.
Chu Xingyun said nothing and gave Qiao Shishi a wink, so Qiao Shishi took her into the uninhabited interrogation room No. 2.
About ten minutes later, Fu Yi also came back and brought Xia Xinghan back from the hospital and Xia Xinghan's accompanying lawyer.
The moment Xia Xinghan entered the lobby, the sky suddenly became darker, and it rained heavily, which instantly wet the ground.
Chu Xingyun stood at the end of the lobby, hanging under a red sign with the words "Strict law enforcement, law enforcement for the people", as if we were welcoming them. He silently stared at every suspect who was arrested from all directions.
Having just placed Xia Xinghan, a black umbrella walked into the city bureau calmly, slowly climbed the steps in the sudden rain, pushed open the glass door, and stepped into the lobby.
Chu Xingyun recognized the umbrella in Yang Shu's hand, which was the umbrella that He Cheng always kept in the trunk.
"Where is He Cheng?"
Yang Shu walked up to him, put the umbrella that was constantly falling down the rainwater by the wall, held her arms that were wet with water vapor, and lowered her eyes slightly and said, "Mr. He sent me to the door and left."
Chu Xingyun looked out into the endless rain curtain outside, and seemed to be able to see He Cheng's SUV flying on the road in the rain. He Cheng saw that he asked Ji Linchuan to monitor Jiang Zhaonan as a barrier of nothingness. The procuratorate could not do anything to him at all. Only when He Cheng came forward and represented the power of the He family to fight against Jiang Zhaonan, can he deal with him.
At this time, He Cheng rushed to the front line of the battlefield. If he didn't want to be trapped in the police station by this sudden rain, he would have to fight quickly.
Be quick!
Chu Xingyun took Yang Shu to the door of the interrogation room and asked her to look in through the glass window on the door: "Think about it carefully, did this woman appear at the dinner on May 6th."
Yang Shu looked at Wu Xiaoshuang's silhouette on the chair with a focused and careful look, frowned slightly, and said cautiously: "Everyone wore a mask that night and had dressed up carefully. I can't be sure if I saw her."
Fu Yi came behind them at some point. Hearing this, he found a photo from his phone. It was a dress that Wu Xiaoshuang, who was photographed in a dry cleaning shop, and said, "Look at this dress, are there any women wearing it that night."
Yang Shu looked at it carefully and recalled: "The style of this skirt is very common. Two or three girls wore this kind of skirt that night. As for her..."
As she said that, she looked at Wu Xiaoshuang in the interrogation room suspiciously, and suddenly her eyebrows were slid: "I remember that there was indeed a girl wearing this skirt that night, and it should be her."
Chu Xingyun asked: "How can you confirm it is her?"
Yang Shu looked at him and said with a gentle voice: "That night, Mr. He and Mr. Jiang went upstairs to talk. I stayed in the banquet hall on the first floor. There were not many people present at that time. I remember a girl in the banquet hall avoiding the crowd and sitting on the sofa in the corner, protecting her lower abdomen with her hands. I guess she might be feeling uncomfortable or pregnant. She is protecting the child in her belly out of maternal instinct, and this girl—"
She looked at Wu Xiaoshuang again: "Her figure looks very similar to that girl that night, especially when she protects her lower abdomen with her hands, it looks very similar."
Chu Xingyun also observed Wu Xiaoshuang from the window, and indeed found habitual movements in her that she had never noticed before. As Yang Shu said, out of maternal instinct, she almost always protected her lower abdomen with her hands because she was not pregnant for enough time and her pregnancy belly was not obvious, so this small movement was difficult to be noticed.
It turned out that it was not Zhou Sisi who attended the banquet that night, but Wu Xiaoshuang.
Chu Xingyun only felt absurd. They were chasing the traces of Zhou Sisi going up the mountain to attend the banquet, proving the connection between Zhou Sisi's death and the banquet, proving that Zhou Sisi and Sun Shibin are in the same position and that interests are not contrary. Only by proving that Zhou Sisi and Sun Shibin attend the banquet at the same time can the possibility of Sun Shibin killing Zhou Sisi be overturned, because if Sun Shibin wanted to kill Zhou Sisi, he would never bring him to the banquet to create many witnesses, and would not be stupid enough to collude with Jiang Zhaonan when he had interests, kill Jiang Zhaonan in front of Jiang Zhaonan and threaten him to steal chips from state funds.
This idea is actually very simple, but Sun Shibin still doesn't know, can't guess, and cannot confirm whether Zhou Sisi's cooperation with him is part of Jiang Zhaonan's plan. In other words, he was jointly designed by Jiang Zhaonan and Zhou Sisi and asked to get into the trap.
They were eager to find evidence to prove that Zhou Sisi's death had nothing to do with Sun Shibin, but they judged the wrong direction from the beginning. It was not Zhou Sisi who had direct contact with Jiang Zhaonan, but Wu Xiaoshuang, the family of the victim who had always been ignored by him.
Fu Yi handed him a file he collected, and he took it over and flipped it over, then rolled it in his palm, pushed the door and walked into the interrogation room.
The door opened, and a trace of light came in, followed by the sound of wind and rain outside the secret room.
Wu Xiaoshuang raised her head, looked at Chu Xingyun who was walking towards her with a little thought, and her face appeared on her face as nervous and solemn as she should be in the law enforcement agency. Her white and beautiful face looked so simple, innocent, and kind.
Chu Xingyun slowly stood in front of her, with a bottomless gaze looking at her face calmly for a moment, and then asked softly: "Have your father killed your fiancé?"
Wu Xiaoshuang seemed a little uneasy when she was alone with him. She looked at the closed door and saw that no one had come in, so she had to answer: "Yes."
Chu Xingyun's expression became softer and even smiled a little, and asked again: "He still forced you to have sex with him?"
Wu Xiaoshuang's expression was still silly. Her clear eyes looked at him without any hesitation. She felt a little more ashamed in her voice, saying, "I was very young at that time, I didn't understand and didn't resist, and my relationship with me continued."
Chu Xingyun took a chair from behind the interrogation table and placed it in front of her. At a very close distance, he sat on the chair with his legs folded, his right hand supported his jaw, and looked at her with a calm expression and smiled: "Are you not his biological daughter?"
Perhaps because his attitude was too gentle, Wu Xiaoshuang gradually let go of her guard, her twisted hands unconsciously released, and she still used to caress her lower abdomen. A layer of remembrance appeared in her eyes, saying, "I don't know who my biological parents are. In fact, I grew up in an orphanage. When I was very young, a couple often went to see me. They said that they would adopt me soon and told me not to follow others. But when I was twelve, they never appeared again. Later, my adoptive father went to the orphanage to find me. He seemed to know me, but I didn't know him. I didn't wait for that couple. They seemed to have forgotten me, so I could only go with him. Later, my adoptive father took me to Yinjiang."
Chu Xingyun pinched his eyebrows as if tired, and still said softly: "So you don't know who your biological parents are yet, what is the relationship between them and your adoptive father?"
Wu Xiaoshuang said in surprise: "Is there any relationship between my biological parents and my adoptive father?"
Chu Xingyun lowered his eyes and his eyes fell on her thin wrist: "Who gave it to you that bracelet?"
Wu Xiaoshuang subconsciously touched the silver ring she had worn for more than ten years, and her expression was very plain, saying, "The worthless silver bracelet, the dean said that it was found on me when he picked me up at the entrance of the orphanage. Maybe it was something my parents left to me. He asked me to wear it all the time, so I would wear it. If they come to me in a day, there is also a certificate."
Chu Xingyun nodded slightly, pursed his lips and smiled slightly, and asked her: "Are you still waiting for them to come back to find you?"
There were too many talks outside the topic, and Chu Xingyun's attitude was too abnormal, so Wu Xiaoshuang's vigilance was quickly revived by being confused. She looked at him carefully, and the warmth in her eyes had faded, and she said, "No."
Chu Xingyun looked into her eyes and refused to let her avoid it: "You shouldn't wait any longer, because they have passed away."
For the two biological parents whom they had never met, let alone feelings, Wu Xiaoshuang had no impression of them at all, so when Chu Xingyun told them about their deaths, she did not have any rich emotions. She was just stunned for a while, then lowered her eyes and said, "Oh."
Chu Xingyun stared at her gentle eyebrows for a while, then opened the file wrapped in his hand, picked out a photo and handed it to her: "Look, are you familiar?"
Wu Xiaoshuang looked at him and took the photo with a little suspicion. When she saw a pair of men and women snuggling and smiling in the photo, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she pursed the corners of her lips as if she wanted to laugh, saying, "They are the couple who used to see me."
Chu Xingyun nodded and said, "Look down and look at this woman's hand."
Wu Xiaoshuang followed his instructions and looked down. The faint smile on the corner of her lips instantly frozen. The earth, which was as faint as spring, suddenly ushered in the late spring cold, freezing and erasing all the fragile and fresh lives.
Chu Xingyun said: "Did you see the silver bracelet on her hand? If I guess correctly, she is your mother. Do you want to know how they died?"
All this was too sudden for Wu Xiaoshuang, and Chu Xingyun's gentle and kind mask was torn apart. As if he hadn't seen the tears flashing in her eyes, he adjusted his comfortable sitting posture, took a deep breath to prepare for the next long discussion, and faced her surprised gaze, he smiled embarrassedly at the corner of his lips, and said in a cold voice without any emotion: "There was a car accident, a very tragic car accident. Your parents and your two and a half years old brother were both killed in the car accident. It is Wu Yaowen, your current adoptive father who fought for this murder lawsuit for them."
I don’t know what kind of mood Wu Xiaoshuang felt after listening to this story, but when Chu Xingyun told her, she felt desolate in her heart.
"Anyway, Wu Yaowen lost the case, was deprived of his lawyer's license, was excluded by the criminal defense industry, was suppressed and retaliated by the local tyrants, and finally had to leave his hometown. Perhaps in order to compensate for his crime, he adopted his daughter who was abandoned in the orphanage, took her to Yinjiang for a pre-order, and found her a mother. A few years later, his wife accidentally discovered that he was homosexual, which led to his wife divorced him." As he said, his voice paused, and his tone became deeper: "Do you know your adoptive father is homosexual?"
Wu Xiaoshuang was in a state of silly at this time. She received too much information for the moment. Her emotions could not keep up with the reaction, and her mood could not keep up with the changes. She could only look at Chu Xingyun with a confused and suspicious look.
Chu Xingyun replied on her behalf: "You shouldn't know, otherwise you wouldn't have made up the lie that you were raped by your adoptive father."
Although Wu Xiaoshuang's mind was deserted at this moment, when she heard the word "lie", the blood on her face faded and her eyes suddenly became calm. She looked at Chu Xingyun as if she wanted to defend herself, but because her inner emotions were too exciting and complicated, she could not say the arguments she had contacted in advance.
Chu Xingyun suddenly left the back of the chair, leaned himself to her, and placed himself very close to her. She could almost hear her rapid breathing at the close. She asked her soul in a tone that was colder than the rushing rain outside: "How did you deceive your adoptive father, and let him willingly abandon his professional ethics that have been sticking to half a lifetime, challenge the law to forge the truth, and let him stand up and bear the charge of murder? How did you do it? Oh--I understand, you use his love for you and use a father's love for his daughter. Even if he is not your biological father, he loves you very much. Do you lied to him that Sun Shibin is dead? And you killed him? So
He volunteered to stand up and take the blame for you? Your adoptive father was very pitiful - until just now, he insisted that he killed Sun Shibin. He thought that Sun Shibin was really dead. He trusted you completely and did not doubt anything you said. Even if you told him that you killed your fiancé, he would do everything he could to help you get rid of the crime without hesitation. Even if he used his reputation and kindness for half his life as the price, he would be willing. Do you think he was very pitiful? He was deprived of his career in his first half of his life to defend your parents, and in his second half of his life to defend you, and innocence in his later years. If you know the origin of his family, wouldn't he lie to him?"
Wu Xiaoshuang still didn't speak, but her breathing became faster and the mist in her eyes became deeper.
Chu Xingyun's eyes were dark and cold, with no trace of cold light or heat. He looked at her expressionlessly and said, "No, you will still lie to him, because you have made a choice between your fiancé and your adoptive father. I just don't know what else you can't do to protect your fiancé."
Wu Xiaoshuang's eyes were filled with tears, and she made the last bitter and powerless struggle, and said with her pale lips: "Shibin, she is dead."
Chu Xingyun looked at her still for a moment, revealing a cold smile from the gap in the corner of her lips. He suddenly stood up and walked to the glass wall behind the interrogation table directly opposite her, and knocked on the wall. The wall was shining with a flash of color, and the whole picture of the interrogation room next door was reflected in the transparent mirror.
So, Wu Xiaoshuang saw the man sitting on the chair with handcuffs, Sun Shibin, who had been killed by her adoptive father. His adoptive father was supported by Qiao Shishi, standing by the wall, hunched over, and his hands were unnaturally stiff in front of him. Even though the shackles on his hands had been removed, he seemed to be tied with an invisible shackle on his hands, which was so heavy that he could not let go and could not straighten his waist. He leaned on Qiao Shishi like an old animal that had exhausted his life and blood, panting, and looked at Sun Shibin with his stiff and turbid eyes. His eyes were like a mirror covered with dust, and the old and dirty could not reflect anyone's figure, and he could not see any anger or sadness. He was already tortured by the lies and deception of his children, like a walking corpse pulled out of a coffin.
This old man who could have hidden himself in the world lost the merits he accumulated throughout his life, the guilt he had repaid, and the kindness he had persevered, turned into a bubble and disappeared without a trace in a scam set up by his children.
The moment Wu Xiaoshuang saw Sun Shibin, she stood up from the chair as if she was frightened. Because she got up too quickly, her eyes were dark and dizzy, almost fainting.
She raised her sore and weak arm and supported her heavy body with the back of the chair. Tears fell off guard, but her face was still confused, as if she didn't even know where the sadness came from and why she cried.
Chu Xingyun looked at her deeply, then walked to the door and opened the door of the interrogation room, calling Xia Xinghan who had been waiting outside the door for a long time. Xia Xinghan's lawyer wanted to follow him, but he stopped him.
Xia Xinghan still distrusts Chu Xingyun and regards him as a monster of the same type as Zheng Xihe. He is about to refuse to talk to the police alone, but Chu Xingyun said to him: "Don't you want to know who the real murderer of Chen Xuan is?"
Xia Xinghan looked at him with doubts: "Isn't it He Cheng?"
Chu Xingyun looked at his eyes and said word by word: "If He Cheng is the murderer, I will die with him in front of you."
His blocked death oath gave Xia Xinghan the motivation to step into the interrogation room, so he saw the woman standing in the center of the room. The woman looked dazed and looked shocked and uneasy. Although she was crying, she could not find any sadness on her face. She seemed to be a dedicated actor who could not get rid of sadness after entering the role for a while, but she had already gotten away from the role, forgetting why she was sad, but she only shed tears in vain and pale.
Chu Xingyun stood between them, and the three of them formed a triangle. Each side refused to move closer to either side, and each side was very strong.
"Now, repeat the process of your killing of Zhou Sisi."
He said to Xia Xinghan.
Xia Xinghan was not afraid of committing a murder case at all. He was even very proud and proud. Zhou Sisi's soul was just an insignificant memorial to him. If Chu Xingyun had not made a fuss, he could have even successfully killed He Cheng.
"You can say it any time you ask me to say it."
Xia Xinghan's eyebrows, which were similar to Chu Xingyun but were completely different, were covered with blood-red fog in his eyes. Killing had turned the handsome boy into a monster that ate the marrow.
"Sister Xuan has a good relationship with me. She told me everything, including that she was deceived by Zhou Sisi and introduced her to some big names. She told me that at a mask banquet, he met a man wearing a butterfly mask. The man liked her very much and asked her to come out for dinner the next day, but I never received her call again, until her body was found in the floating beach under the river. I knew who killed her, but the police didn't know that you police were not even as good as me. The mask I found in He Cheng's study was enough to convict him, but you turned a blind eye--"
Chu Xingyun interrupted him coldly: "Don't change the topic."
Xia Xinghan snorted coldly and continued, "I approached Zhou Sisi just to know that those people I had contacted before Sister Xuan died. Later, she introduced me to Jiang Zhaonan, and Jiang Zhaonan introduced me to He Cheng. In fact, I had enough time to kill him in the night I spent at He Cheng's house, but it was too cheap to kill him quietly. I wanted to reveal his true face, so I stole the mask, took his fingerprints, drove his car to pick up Zhou Sisi, and took her to the surveillance blind spot highway, just like He Cheng's way of killing people, raped her first, and then killed her."
"So you admit that you killed Zhou Sisi and simulated it as Butterfly Duke to lure out Butterfly Duke."
Xia Xinghan confessed not only: "That's right."
Chu Xingyun looked at Wu Xiaoshuang again: "Now you recount your experiences and hearings at the banquet at Rose Manor."
It took Wu Xiaoshuang a long time to realize the situation she was in. She still couldn't believe that Chu Xingyun had demolished her lie to the last level, leaving only the last layer of truth. Chu Xingyun seemed to know everything. He was like a monster who could read people's minds, with accurate insights and sharp weirdness. She suddenly had a deeper fear of the policeman she had always kept away from, and a deeper fear than the lie being exposed.
She retreated to the wall, protected her lower abdomen with her arms, buried her head, and resisted stubbornly.
However, Chu Xingyun had no time to reason with her at this time. He suddenly frowned and had a fierce and sharp attitude: "If you don't tell me honestly, we have the right to detain you, and we can even put you in a detention center. When you go to the detention center, do you think you still have the conditions to let your child stay in your stomach until the end of delivery?!"
This move may work for every new mother, and Wu Xiaoshuang is no exception, but she is smarter than an ordinary woman. She is in a desperate situation where she has no way out and still doesn't forget to deal with the police and said, "If you give me lenient treatment, I will cooperate with you."
Chu Xingyun narrowed his eyes slightly, and was amused by her, and sneered: "What kind of leniency do you want."
Tears oozed in Wu Xiaoshuang's eyes, but she was still tenacious: "I don't want to go to jail."
Chu Xingyun said unmoved: "You are not qualified and have no position to negotiate with me now. If you don't say it, your fiancé will also say that anyway, your fiancé is suspected of economic crimes and the amount is huge. He doesn't care whether there is one more crime, and he may be eager to give you up and share the criminal responsibility. Do you want to try it? Try how despicable and selfish human nature is? Just look at yourself and you can't stand the experiment at all!"
He was right, Wu Xiaoshuang did not dare to try it. Her bluff was knocked back to her original form by Chu Xingyun. She fell into silence in an instant, squatting down silently and hugging herself. Her armor was dismembered and broken like peeling walls.
To be continued...
