When Gu Chen heard this, he suddenly felt that all the clues of the case seemed to be somewhat different from what he had imagined.
However, the overall direction of the case did not deviate from his own cognition.
At the very least, the bizarre fire in the sponge factory 15 years ago can actually prove that it was Zhao Junbo in front of him who was doing the tricks.
Moreover, Zhao Xiaobin, the vagabond artist, and Xiao Mengqi later all died at the hands of Zhao Junbo.
Such a cruel method shocked everyone present.
But when Zhao Junbo mentioned his operation method, it seemed to be different from the previous ones.
According to Bao Chen's reasoning before, these people, including Xiao Mengqi and Yuan Jialiang, should be Zhao Junbo's accomplices, helping him dispose of the corpse, so that everything looks normal.
But in the situation Zhao Junbo explained, it seemed that he was operating all of this alone, while Xiao Mengqi and Yuan Jialiang seemed to be bystanders from the beginning to the end.
Especially Xiao Mengqi, who just found Zhao Xiaobin that night, and finally saw Zhao Junbo's clothes brought home to wash, and helped him hide the truth, that's all.
However, Xiao Mengqi's death was actually planned by Zhao Junbo, and because Zhao Junbo was not at ease with Xiao Mengqi, he finally found Xiao Mengqi's "Ghost King" sketch at Xiao Mengqi's home.
It can be said that although the draft of "Ghost King" is not circulated in the country, it is the Internet age. Zhao Junbo knows that Xiao Mengqi's works are very popular in the neon country, and sooner or later they will be known by domestic netizens.
But once Xiao Mengqi became well-known in the country, the exposure would come back sooner or later, but once domestic netizens knew, there was a plot about the fire at the sponge factory in Wangchao Town in the "Ghost King" comic.
Then there is no doubt that sooner or later the police will use this clue to find out the specific identity of the charred corpse burned to death in the sponge factory fire.
But in this way, it is obviously not good for him.
Therefore, in order to be safe enough for himself, Zhao Junbo tricked Xiao Mengqi to the riverside at all costs, and then drowned her in the river.
In the end, with the blessing of rumors, a perfect crime was created in which Xiao Mengqi was depressed because of relationship problems, and finally committed suicide by jumping into a river.
But Zhao Junbo never expected that today, 15 years later, after evading investigation for 15 years, he would be caught by the young policeman in front of him.
Of course, Zhao Junbo is also very clear that sooner or later he has to pay back when he comes out to play, but he fell at this time, and Zhao Junbo felt unwilling.
He has everything now, children, family, property, and even parents.
Losing everything back then may not be as heartbreaking as it is now.
Therefore, after Zhao Junbo answered the question just now, he smiled bitterly.
Perhaps this kind of disguise of a smile can make him feel better.
Gu Chen looked up at Zhao Junbo, and asked sharply, "Yuan Jialiang didn't participate in your crime, so does he know the cause of Xiao Mengqi's death?"
"I don't know." Zhao Junbo shook his head.
"I don't know? Isn't it right? On the side of the coffin on the mountain, and the place where the corpse was transferred and buried, there are images of the ghost king. It is obvious that someone is alerting us to the police."
"And the person who reminded us of the police should be Yuan Jialiang, right?" Lu Weiwei said.
Zhao Junbo hesitated for a few seconds, but still nodded and admitted: "Maybe, but I didn't pay attention to these."
Gu Chen nodded slightly: "That means that Yuan Jialiang knows what happened."
"And this Yuan Jialiang may have been inspired by Xiao Mengqi's serialized ghost king comics, because Yuan Jialiang has always been a loyal reader of Xiao Mengqi's comics, and his screen name should be Bad Man."
Hearing Gu Chen's narration, Zhao Junbo also sighed and said, "He really didn't know at first, but Yuan Jialiang is smarter."
"Because I heard Xiao Mengqi talk about some things between her and Yuan Jialiang, so I know that Yuan Jialiang came to Jiangnan City because of Xiao Mengqi."
"But at the same time, I'm curious. If Yuan Jialiang came here to work for Xiao Mengqi, why didn't he come to find Xiao Mengqi?"
"In other words, the time the two of them met was very little, which is totally inconsistent with what Yuan Jialiang dictated."
"Don't Xiao Mengqi have any doubts?" Officer Wang asked.
Zhao Junbo shook his head: "Xiao Mengqi is devoted to creation, and Yuan Jialiang and Yuan Jialiang are friends."
"Xiao Mengqi was very happy that Yuan Jialiang came to Jiangnan City. She felt that Yuan Jialiang didn't come to her often because of his busy work."
"But at the same time, she doesn't want Yuan Jialiang to come to her."
"It was only later, after Xiao Mengqi drowned, that Yuan Jialiang also got news and had conflicts with the locals."
"In the end, Master Xiao and I stopped it. Of course, we know that Yuan Jialiang and Xiao Mengqi are alumni, so Yuan Jialiang still listens to us."
"Then when did his suspicion start?" Yuan Shasha said.
Zhao Junbo squinted his eyes to think, and said slowly: "Maybe, he was the person who knew Xiao Mengqi best at that time, right?"
"Xiao Mengqi's creation was influenced by him in many aspects, because at that time Xiao Mengqi had already gotten over her ex-boyfriend's relationship problems."
"Yuan Jialiang must have known this, but when he heard that Xiao Mengqi had drowned due to relationship problems, he didn't believe it. It was precisely because of this that he had some conflicts with those neighbors who were gossips."
"Later, Yuan Jialiang, who was aggrieved, came to Master Xiao's house to help. I was also there at the time. He found me and asked me if the cause of Xiao Mengqi's death was real?"
"I said I didn't know, but he said he would definitely find out the truth for Xiao Mengqi."
Also hearing this, Gu Chen suddenly raised his head slightly and asked him: "So this Yuan Jialiang was actually the one who first discovered the strange cause of Xiao Mengqi's death, right?"
"It can be understood in this way." Zhao Junbo nodded slightly, and said: "At the time of Xiao Mengqi's death, everyone thought so, and thought that she committed suicide by jumping into the river because of emotional problems. This is the same as my previous assumption, and there is no problem at all."
After breathing heavily, Zhao Junbo shook his head helplessly: "But this Yuan Jialiang has always been relentless. It seems that he doesn't believe at all that Xiao Mengqi will commit suicide by jumping into the river because of that unworthy ex-boyfriend."
"So, he started actively looking for clues, and notified his former alumni of Xiao Mengqi's death, and let these people notify Xiao Mengqi's ex-boyfriend."
"For this reason, Xiao Mengqi's ex-boyfriend even came here on the day of Xiao Mengqi's funeral."
"He even thought that Xiao Mengqi actually committed suicide by jumping into the river because of him. After all, the relationship between the two of them is very good. If it wasn't for Master Xiao's obstruction back then, they might have been together long ago."
"So, Master Xiao felt that he had a fault in his heart. On the day of the funeral, when he saw Xiao Mengqi's ex-boyfriend kneel down and admit his mistake, he also saw the sincerity of Xiao Mengqi's ex-boyfriend, so he stopped pursuing it."
"Then Yuan Jialiang was at the funeral?" Lu Weiwei hurriedly asked.
Zhao Junbo nodded: "Of course he is also there. Yuan Jialiang said that he will find out the cause of Xiao Mengqi's death."
"That's it. During that time, I was very guilty. Every day I walked on the road, I was afraid."
"Zhao Xiaobin's disappearance allowed me to live a peaceful life in the Ouhuang Furniture Factory, and the death of the vagabond artist didn't affect me in the slightest, but Xiao Mengqi was the only one."
"When I found out that Xiao Mengqi was using my method of murder to make comics, it was too late, because she had already submitted part of the manuscript, and it was also being serialized in Neon Country."
With a heavy sigh, Zhao Junbo shook his head helplessly: "At that time, I knew that this "Ghost King" comic is the biggest unstable factor."
"Sure enough, in the days that followed, apart from working, Yuan Jialiang was investigating Xiao Mengqi's matter."
"But he's not a policeman, he's not going well in many ways, and that's it, 15 years."
"Originally, I thought that all of this could be done without worry. I even forgot what happened 15 years ago."
"In the past 15 years, I have hypocritically accompanied my godfather Zhao Changlin, and I have often gone out to find Zhao Xiaobin's whereabouts."
"Although I know that doing so is useless, because the real corpse of Zhao Xiaobin has been buried on that mountain, and it has become a charred corpse."
"No matter how Zhao Changlin searched, the result was the same, but I had to perform my tricks. In this way, 15 years of light and shadow passed quickly."
"I became the actual controller of Ouhuang Furniture Factory, and all the affairs of the family depended on me. I even married a beautiful wife and had a handsome son."
"All of this seems to be developing in a good direction, but one day, all of this is interrupted by an anonymous phone call."
"Anonymous call?" Hearing this, Lu Weiwei hurriedly asked: "Is this anonymous call from Yuan Jialiang?"
Zhao Junbo nodded silently: "At first I didn't know who it was? But later, the anonymous caller who used voice-changing software told me, remember Xiao Mengqi's drowning death 15 years ago?"
"When I heard this, I was stunned."
"Because, if it weren't for this anonymous call, I might have forgotten the existence of this matter."
"I was panicked and at a loss, so I asked who he was? I told him that I didn't know about Xiao Mengqi's death, and Xiao Mengqi's death had already been confirmed 15 years ago."
"But the phone call told me that things were not that simple at all. The person on the phone could clearly tell me what happened in Wangchao Town that year, and also told me that Xiao Mengqi recorded it in the "Ghost King" comic. "
Taking a deep breath, Zhao Junbo was also very annoyed at this moment, and said in despair: "I was going crazy at the time, obviously everything was settled, but today, 15 years later, there will be another wave."
"But I'm not a vegetarian either. I quickly remembered that Yuan Jialiang once said that he would definitely find out the cause of Xiao Mengqi's death."
"Because in his heart, Xiao Mengqi has always been the woman he loves deeply, so he won't let it go."
Hearing this, Yuan Shasha couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "It seems that Yuan Jialiang is really persistent. For 15 years, he has never given up on these things."
Looking up at Zhao Junbo, Yuan Shasha said again: "Then what happened later? Did this Yuan Jialiang come to see you?"
"Yes, just this time." Zhao Junbo no longer concealed it now.
Officer Wang frowned: "What did you say? Just this time? So, Yuan Jialiang came from Hubei province this time just for Xiao Mengqi's matter?"
"En." Zhao Junbo didn't refute, just nodded silently, and said involuntarily:
"This is the vow he made back then, because just a while ago, he found some key clues in the social posts sent to her by Xiao Mengqi's fans."
"Because Xiao Mengqi's works were serialized overseas before, and because of the sensitive subject matter, they cannot be disseminated and serialized in China. Even pirated comics will be deleted by the corresponding platforms."
"So, Yuan Jialiang before, he couldn't see Xiao Mengqi's "Ghost King" work."
"But now, someone has taken screenshots of some of the main plots of the "Ghost King" comics back then, and put them in the exchange post."
"And all of this happened to be seen by Yuan Jialiang."
"Because of this, Yuan Jialiang finally found the relevant plot of the "Ghost King" comics through some channels, and only then did he know that there is a plot in the "Ghost King" comics, which is about a fire in a small town."
"And the wandering artist who died in the fire was not the wandering artist himself, but the missing son of a local wealthy businessman."
"This moment woke up Yuan Jialiang, and he suddenly realized that the fire that happened 15 years ago might not be what he imagined at all."
"In the end, Yuan Jialiang started to follow the clues in the comics, and gradually found out that in Wangchao Town, the son of a furniture factory owner disappeared, and that person was Zhao Xiaobin."
"And Zhao Xiaobin had conflicts with me before he disappeared. Because I knew Xiao Mengqi, he naturally thought that maybe I was obstructing all of this."
"Because he knew the reason of the matter, Yuan Jialiang quickly realized that Xiao Mengqi had already drawn the truth into the comics, so Yuan Jialiang took the initiative to contact me and wanted to ask me for an explanation."
"Then what did you tell him?" Officer Wang asked.
Zhao Junbo moved his body again, and said slowly: "I asked him if he was Yuan Jialiang? He was silent."
"From that moment on, I knew clearly that he was Yuan Jialiang. I said, if you want to know the truth, just listen to me, and I will tell you the answer."
"Besides, I want to spend as much time with him as possible and let him come to Wangchao Town."
"Did he agree?" Gu Chen asked.
"Agreed, he agreed." Zhao Junbo nodded slightly, panting and said:
"This Yuan Jialiang really has the guts, but I know very well that Yuan Jialiang has no idea in his heart. He doesn't know if all this is true? Or was it because of the fire that year that stimulated Xiao Mengqi, or some kind of Creative inspiration?"
"That's why I drew these contents into her "Ghost King" comics."
Panting heavily, trying to calm down, Zhao Junbo said again:
"Of course, in order to confirm this, we must first know the condition of the charred corpse."
"At that time, the time I made an appointment with Yuan Jialiang was the time of the blueberry picking festival in Wangchao Town."
"Because at that time, many tourists and merchants from other places will rush to Wangchao Town to participate in this annual event, so everyone's attention will be focused on the blueberry picking festival."
"In this way, I can solve the problem one-on-one with Yuan Jialiang."
"That's not right." Hearing what Zhao Junbo said, Gu Chen also corrected him: "But this Yuan Jialiang arrived in Wangchao Town before the blueberry picking festival in Wangchao Town, and he arrived in advance."
"That's right." Seeing Gu Chen's questioning, Zhao Junbo also confessed: "Because Yuan Jialiang wanted to know the truth, he had to confirm the condition of the corpse."
"Because he was also in Jiangnan City 15 years ago. The fire at the sponge factory, Zhao Xiaobin's disappearance, and Xiao Mengqi's suicide by jumping into a river are actually relatively close in time."
"Thus, Yuan Jialiang also probably knows that the so-called wandering artist back then is still buried on the mountain near Wangchao Town."
"As long as he finds a way to prove that the corpse is not a wandering entertainer, then he has the initiative."
"Then why didn't he call the police? Let the police come forward to solve this problem?" Lu Weiwei also felt very strange.
Compared with this kind of thing, it would be more comfortable for the police to come forward.
But Zhao Junbo shook his head and said, "You take it for granted, this thing has happened for 15 years."
"What happened in the past 15 years, many people who experienced it back then have no impression, and even many people who experienced it back then are no longer in Wangchao Town."
"At this time, you, a foreigner, suddenly ran to Wangchao Town and told the police that the person buried in that coffin was not a wandering artist. Do you think anyone would believe it?"
It was also asked by Zhao Junbo. Everyone looked at each other and felt understandable.
After all, if he was the one who took over, everyone might look confused, and they wouldn't start mobilizing people just based on Yuan Jialiang's guess, and they might express more doubts.
"That's why Yuan Jialiang was worried about these things, so he thought of coming to Wangchao Town 10 days in advance. The purpose is to dig out the charred corpse by himself, and then come for an appraisal, right?" Gu Chen asked.
"It's ridiculous, isn't it?" Facing Gu Chen's question, Zhao Junbo smiled and shook his head helplessly:
"At that time, I was actually paying attention to every move in Wangchao Town every day, because I knew that I asked Yuan Jialiang to meet him in Wangchao Town, and the time was the blueberry picking festival."
"But, will Yuan Jialiang honestly meet with me on time? I don't think so. After all, we don't have a sense of trust in each other."
"Since Yuan Jialiang suspects that I am the murderer who killed Xiao Mengqi back then, he will certainly not believe my nonsense."
"If he wants to take the initiative when meeting, he must have some necessary clues."
Speaking of this, Zhao Junbo himself laughed out loud, shook his head, and said mockingly: "This Yuan Jialiang is an idiot, does he think he is a policeman? Or Captain Mo Jin?"
"Just such a person, single-handedly, came to Wangchao Town 10 days in advance."
"Does he really think this is his home field? Hehe, he doesn't know it. From the moment he entered Wangchao Town, he was in my eyes."
"As a person who has been in Wangchao Town for a long time, his every move of Yuan Jialiang cannot escape my eyes."
"From then on, I found that Yuan Jialiang would go to the nearby mountains every morning and evening."
"And on that mountain, what is there for Yuan Jialiang to go to? I guess, there is only that charred corpse."
"So I conclude that Yuan Jialiang should go to the mountain to dig up the corpse."
"However, in order to avoid exposing his actions, Yuan Jialiang only carried some portable tools with him, that kind of gadgets."
"And all of this, I watched secretly, because in those days, I had been secretly observing Yuan Jialiang's every move."
"I found out that after he exhumed the body, he secretly moved it to another location."
"I guess, he may also notice, and maybe I will notice the importance of this corpse."
"Because if the charred corpse cannot be found, the police will not be able to determine the true identity of the charred corpse after they intervene."
"In this way, the person lying in this coffin can only be a wandering entertainer, not Zhao Xiaobin."
"But because Yuan Jialiang came here alone, he didn't dare to disclose the matter to others, so he had to dig out the body and then move it to another place for burial."
"Finally, bury the empty coffin in the soil again."
At the end, Zhao Junbo was also out of breath.
And Gu Chen finally figured out the ins and outs of the matter.
The person who co-authored and worked on for a long time, excavating and transferring the remains of the corpse was Yuan Jialiang from beginning to end.
Gu Chen raised his head and stared at Zhao Junbo in front of him, and asked, "Then what happened later? You wanted to kill? How did you kill Yuan Jialiang in that ancient temple on the mountain?"
"Ashamed." Hearing what Gu Chen said, Zhao Junbo couldn't help but shook his head, sighed and said:
"Originally, I already knew about Yuan Jialiang's transfer of the corpse's bones, so I thought, under the pretense of asking him to meet, I would take this opportunity to solve this trouble."
"Because I know that there is a hermit in the ancient temple building, named Zhou Zheng, who is also an outsider, and he usually goes out regularly."
"So you took advantage of this gap and invited Yuan Jialiang to this building to discuss matters?" Gu Chen asked.
"Yes." Zhao Junbo did not deny it, and confessed honestly: "I have no choice but to invite Yuan Jialiang to this building to discuss matters, because I want to divert your police's attention and make your police mistakenly think that Yuan Jialiang's death is related to Zhou Zheng, a hermit."
"After all, if Yuan Jialiang died in Zhou Zheng's bedroom, then Zhou Zheng would obviously not be able to explain clearly."
"But I remember that Zhou Zheng locked the door when he went out, but you..." Thinking of this, Lu Weiwei felt something was wrong.
But Zhao Junbo admitted generously: "It's nothing? Because I have some friendship with this Zhou Zheng. Once Zhou Zheng invited me to his residence, but because he came to the mountain, Zhou Zheng lost his key."
"While I was worrying about this matter, Zhou Zheng found a spare key in a corner of the house to open the door."
"At first, I thought that this guy would change the lock because of this, but he didn't. It wasn't until I accidentally picked up a bunch of keys in the grass on a sloping field when I went down the mountain, that I realized it belonged to Zhou Zheng."
"But I had already gone down the mountain at that time, so I thought about finding time to return it to him another day."
"But after going back and forth, I gradually forgot this point, until I received a call from Yuan Jialiang, and later, Yuan Jialiang secretly transferred the remains of the corpse on the mountain."
"I thought, maybe Zhou Zheng's residence can be used to solve Yuan Jialiang's trouble."
"So I asked Yuan Jialiang to go up the mountain while Zhou Zheng was out, and opened the door with the key I picked up."
"That is, in Zhou Zheng's residence, I used Zhou Zheng's tableware to poison Yuan Jialiang's drinking water."
Sighing heavily, Zhao Junbo looked at Gu Chen weakly, and then said: "I think your police are clear about the following things, and you should be able to detect that the deceased Yuan Jialiang died of poisoning."
"That's right, we did detect this point." Officer Wang said.
Zhao Junbo nodded silently: "So, Yuan Jialiang died like this. I even wiped out all traces of me at the scene."
"Because from the very beginning, I paid special attention to my traces. I originally thought that after Yuan Jialiang was disposed of, I would quietly transfer Yuan Jialiang's body."
"It's a coincidence that when I was about to transfer the corpse, I noticed some movement down the mountain. Only then did I realize that it was Zhou Zheng who came back early."
"But at the same time, there are a group of strangers around Zhou Zheng, especially you, Gu Chen. You were brilliant at the poetry conference at the Blueberry Picking Festival in Wangchao Town. I also noticed you at the time, so I know your truth. identity."
"Because, in order to avoid being discovered, I had no choice but to escape temporarily, which is why you found Yuan Jialiang's body in Zhou Zheng's bedroom."
"So that's the case?" Listening to Zhao Junbo's narration, Lu Weiwei was also dumbfounded and said, "So, you were at the scene of the discovery?"
"That's right." Zhao Junbo lowered his head, and said in frustration at the moment: "If I acted faster, maybe I wouldn't be discovered."
"Thousands of calculations have been made, but Zhou Zhenghui will come back early."
"And not only that, Zhou Zheng brought you back together, which made me a little bit at a loss at the time. I could only give up transferring the corpse and quietly hid in a corner of the mountain forest by myself."
"Just watched you enter the room and found the body."
"Then how did you get down the mountain?" Gu Chen was also very curious, as he didn't seem to have seen any trace of Zhao Junbo on the mountain road.
But Zhao Junbo said with a light smile: "It's very simple. There are several mountain roads. I'm not on the main road, so I need to take some detours, but they are more secretive."
"I take the path, so I won't meet you, that's how I left."
With two heavy sighs, Zhao Junbo also choked up, and said helplessly:
"But I never expected that Yuan Jialiang would save me a hand. He was on the side of the coffin, and he also moved the location of the buried corpse, leaving some clues."
Looking up at Gu Chen, Zhao Junbo said unwillingly, "I didn't expect that you would use this ghost head pattern to quickly find the "Ghost King" comic."
"Then I used the Ghost King manga to gradually find my godfather Zhao Changlin, and even went to Haitian Orphanage to investigate me."
Taking a breath, Zhao Junbo said in disbelief, "When I was interrogated by you, I was really frightened."
"After all, it's not difficult for me to see from your investigations at the Haitian Welfare Institute that you have already begun to doubt me."
"It's just that I didn't expect that your progress would be so fast? In a short period of time, you locked the suspect target on me."
"If I hadn't been scared, I wouldn't have fallen into your trap at all."
"Hehe." Hearing what Zhao Junbo said, Police Officer Wang couldn't help laughing, and said helplessly, "Zhao Junbo, Zhao Junbo, do you know why you were arrested? It's because you are too smart."
Glancing back at Gu Chen, Police Officer Wang said again: "Of course, the key is our Gu Chen, he insisted on going to Haitian Orphanage."
"It was this trip to the Haitian Welfare Institute that allowed us to meet the person in charge, Dean Liu Shufen."
"In the communication with Dean Liu Shufen, I discovered a big problem, that is, you Zhao Junbo. You have been adopted twice, but you were abandoned twice."
"This question, in normal times, might make people curious, but you have some important connection with Zhao Xiaobin's disappearance. You were even the only person who had conflicts with Zhao Xiaobin before he disappeared."
"In addition, Dean Liu Shufen helped us analyze your character like a cocoon, which made us realize that you are actually an extremely dangerous person."
"Especially when we heard that you were abandoned by adoptive families twice when you were less than 10 years old, we were stunned."
"Yes." As soon as Police Officer Wang finished speaking, Lu Weiwei couldn't help but echoed:
"The most important thing is that when we heard that you broke the elder brother of the second adoptive family with boiling water in a hot pot, I couldn't believe it. This is something that a child under 10 years old would do. This is cruel."
"Furthermore, based on this point, Dean Liu Shufen gave us an analysis of the changes after you were abandoned by the second adoptive family. This made us feel even more that Zhao Xiaobin's disappearance may have something to do with you."
With a heavy sigh, Lu Weiwei also slowly said: "Sure enough, later we found Xiao Mengqi, his father, classmates, and ex-boyfriend through the ghost king manga."
"After communicating with them, and investigating the cause of Yuan Jialiang's death, I discovered that there are actually some special connections between you people."
"Especially those 15 years ago, one after another of strange incidents happened in Wangchao Town, seemingly unrelated, but in fact there are traces to be found."
"Because all the incidents are related to you, Zhao Junbo, and you are the very unstable factor that Dean Liu Shufen said."
"That's why we concluded that the murderer may be you."
"That's right." As soon as Lu Weiwei finished speaking, Yuan Shasha couldn't help but interjected:
"We were not sure before, but now, it seems that everything has been settled. What you have done yourself, so you have ghosts in your heart."
"So after we conspired with your godfather Zhao Changlin, you were decisively recruited. We first let your godfather show his flaws and convinced you that what your godfather said in the follow-up is the truth, so we tricked you to the blueberry base , let you reveal your true colors."
"Hehe." Hearing this, Zhao Junbo couldn't help laughing dryly, and said helplessly:
"If I didn't come to the scene tonight, would it be difficult for you to find a flaw?"
"That's not the case. We can use other means, but relatively speaking, this trick will be more convenient to lure the snake out of the hole." Gu Chen also told the truth.
After all, criminals have a certain curiosity.
Especially when someone says that there are witnesses, it is tantamount to declaring that his crime will be confirmed.
Therefore, most criminal suspects will not calmly make some extreme and stupid behaviors.
Gu Chen also took advantage of this point, and tried and tested many cases with success.
Of course, including this time, letting Zhao Junbo throw himself into the trap, this has obviously achieved Gu Chen's expected goal.
At this moment, Zhao Junbo was a little desperate, shaking his head and sighing in pain: "It's really unlucky for me to meet you."
"Zhao Junbo." Police officer Wang stared at Zhao Junbo in front of him, and said in a bad mood: "You have done all kinds of bad things, but you have enjoyed 15 years of good fortune, and everyone said that evil will be rewarded with evil. It's not that the time has not come. "
"I think you are a scumbag, you should have been caught a long time ago. People are doing the things you do, and the sky is watching. Do you think you are going to hide?"
"Don't you know that there is a saying? You can hide from the first day of junior high school, but you can't hide from the fifteenth day."
"That's right." Hearing this, Lu Weiwei said unhappily, "And people like you not only escaped the first and fifteenth grades of junior high school, but also escaped for 15 years."
"For a scum like you, 15 years is simply an insult to justice, so now is also the time for you to really accept the legal trial, get up for me."
Also seeing Zhao Junbo at this moment, still lying on the side of the slope with a leisurely look, Lu Weiwei can't wait to go up and give him a kick.
In order for him to confess his crimes, Comrade Wang even sacrificed a cigarette he was reluctant to smoke.
So under the pull of several people, Zhao Junbo was led up by the crowd and started to walk towards the entrance of the blueberry base.
At the same time, directors Xu Feng and Zhang Wenxia were already driving a police car and parked on the side of the road.
After they escorted Zhao Junbo into the car, they temporarily returned to the Wangchao Town Police Station.
...
...
1:15 am.
When two police cars drove into the compound of Wangchao Town Police Station, Zhao Changlin, who had been waiting at the door for a long time, now stood under the streetlight, looking extremely haggard.
Zhao Changlin was stunned when he saw his adopted son Zhao Junbo being taken out of the police car by everyone.
After getting off the car, Zhao Junbo has already discovered his godfather Zhao Changlin.
But at this moment, Zhao Junbo didn't even dare to look up.
"Let's go." Lu Weiwei yelled fiercely, and pushed Zhao Junbo forward with his hands clasped behind his back.
Zhao Junbo was somewhat repelled, he didn't dare to pass by his godfather Zhao Changlin.
However, under the push and push of Police Officer Wang and Lu Weiwei, Zhao Junbo reluctantly lowered his head and walked quickly to the side.
"stop!"
Just when Zhao Junbo was about to pass by his godfather Zhao Changlin, Zhao Changlin, who had been standing at the door of the hall at first, suddenly stopped Zhao Junbo.
Zhao Junbo's heart skipped a beat, but he still didn't dare to look directly at Zhao Changlin.
At this time, Police Officer Wang and Lu Weiwei also knew that Zhao Changlin wanted to communicate with Zhao Junbo, so out of human nature, they did not rush to take Zhao Junbo to the police station, but detained Zhao Junbo on the spot.
At this moment, Zhao Junbo felt that he was dead. Seeing his godfather Zhao Changlin walking towards him step by step, Zhao Junbo panicked completely.
"Raise your head up." Zhao Changlin who was facing him said coldly.
But even so, Zhao Junbo was already in a panic at the moment, he didn't dare to look up, and he didn't dare to look at his godfather.
However, in the next second, Zhao Changlin, who was weak, yelled at Zhao Changlin in front of him in a filial tone, and roared almost like a lion's roar: "Raise your head for me."
Maybe it was the old man who was taken aback by the lion's roar. This godfather who never lost his temper with him is now a stranger.
Zhao Junbo, with a guilty conscience, could only slowly raise his head with a mechanical disjointed movement.
But at this time, Zhao Changlin saw his head getting closer, fixed his bloodshot eyes on Zhao Junbo in front of him with the position almost touching the tip of his nose, but his tone became cold again.
"Your brother Zhao Xiaobin, did you kill him?" Zhao Changlin asked.
Zhao Junbo was scared out of his wits at this moment, he just raised his head slightly, but he didn't dare to speak.
But at this moment, Zhao Changlin turned his eyes closer.
At this moment, the breathing of both sides seems to be able to perceive each other.
"I'll ask you again, your brother Zhao Xiaobin, did you kill him? Did you?"
This time, the old man Zhao Changlin asked again with almost resolute eyes.
Zhao Junbo, who was already trembling all over, could no longer bear the pressure at this moment, so he could only nod silently, and passively admitted: "Yes... yes!"
"Snapped!"
Zhao Changlin slapped Zhao Junbo on the face, and asked again: "Is it?"
"Yes... yes." Faced with the old man's questioning, Zhao Junbo admitted again.
"Snapped!"
Another slap on Zhao Junbo's face, the old man continued to ask in the same tone: "Is it really? Is it?"
Zhao Junbo, whose cheeks were already a little bloated, was out of breath at the moment, but when faced with the kind of terrifying eyes that Zhao Changlin had never seen before, Zhao Junbo nodded again and admitted: "Yes, I killed it."
"Snapped!"
As soon as the words fell, the old man Zhao Changlin slapped Zhao Junbo on the face again.
But this time, the old man almost used all his strength.
At this time, Zhao Junbo's left cheek was also swollen.
Seeing this, Gu Chen hurriedly stepped forward to stop him and said, "Boss Zhao, calm down first."
"Officer Gu, don't worry about it. If I don't kill this bastard today, my surname will not be Zhao. I will kill you bastard, you bastard."

When Gu Chen heard this, he suddenly felt that all the clues of the case seemed to be somewhat different from what he had imagined.
However, the overall direction of the case did not deviate from his own cognition.
At the very least, the bizarre fire in the sponge factory 15 years ago can actually prove that it was Zhao Junbo in front of him who was doing the tricks.
Moreover, Zhao Xiaobin, the vagabond artist, and Xiao Mengqi later all died at the hands of Zhao Junbo.
Such a cruel method shocked everyone present.
But when Zhao Junbo mentioned his operation method, it seemed to be different from the previous ones.
According to Bao Chen's reasoning before, these people, including Xiao Mengqi and Yuan Jialiang, should be Zhao Junbo's accomplices, helping him dispose of the corpse, so that everything looks normal.
But in the situation Zhao Junbo explained, it seemed that he was operating all of this alone, while Xiao Mengqi and Yuan Jialiang seemed to be bystanders from the beginning to the end.
Especially Xiao Mengqi, who just found Zhao Xiaobin that night, and finally saw Zhao Junbo's clothes brought home to wash, and helped him hide the truth, that's all.
However, Xiao Mengqi's death was actually planned by Zhao Junbo, and because Zhao Junbo was not at ease with Xiao Mengqi, he finally found Xiao Mengqi's "Ghost King" sketch at Xiao Mengqi's home.
It can be said that although the draft of "Ghost King" is not circulated in the country, it is the Internet age. Zhao Junbo knows that Xiao Mengqi's works are very popular in the neon country, and sooner or later they will be known by domestic netizens.
But once Xiao Mengqi became well-known in the country, the exposure would come back sooner or later, but once domestic netizens knew, there was a plot about the fire at the sponge factory in Wangchao Town in the "Ghost King" comic.
Then there is no doubt that sooner or later the police will use this clue to find out the specific identity of the charred corpse burned to death in the sponge factory fire.
But in this way, it is obviously not good for him.
Therefore, in order to be safe enough for himself, Zhao Junbo tricked Xiao Mengqi to the riverside at all costs, and then drowned her in the river.
In the end, with the blessing of rumors, a perfect crime was created in which Xiao Mengqi was depressed because of relationship problems, and finally committed suicide by jumping into a river.
But Zhao Junbo never expected that today, 15 years later, after evading investigation for 15 years, he would be caught by the young policeman in front of him.
Of course, Zhao Junbo is also very clear that sooner or later he has to pay back when he comes out to play, but he fell at this time, and Zhao Junbo felt unwilling.
He has everything now, children, family, property, and even parents.
Losing everything back then may not be as heartbreaking as it is now.
Therefore, after Zhao Junbo answered the question just now, he smiled bitterly.
Perhaps this kind of disguise of a smile can make him feel better.
Gu Chen looked up at Zhao Junbo, and asked sharply, "Yuan Jialiang didn't participate in your crime, so does he know the cause of Xiao Mengqi's death?"
"I don't know." Zhao Junbo shook his head.
"I don't know? Isn't it right? On the side of the coffin on the mountain, and the place where the corpse was transferred and buried, there are images of the ghost king. It is obvious that someone is alerting us to the police."
"And the person who reminded us of the police should be Yuan Jialiang, right?" Lu Weiwei said.
Zhao Junbo hesitated for a few seconds, but still nodded and admitted: "Maybe, but I didn't pay attention to these."
Gu Chen nodded slightly: "That means that Yuan Jialiang knows what happened."
"And this Yuan Jialiang may have been inspired by Xiao Mengqi's serialized ghost king comics, because Yuan Jialiang has always been a loyal reader of Xiao Mengqi's comics, and his screen name should be Bad Man."
Hearing Gu Chen's narration, Zhao Junbo also sighed and said, "He really didn't know at first, but Yuan Jialiang is smarter."
"Because I heard Xiao Mengqi talk about some things between her and Yuan Jialiang, so I know that Yuan Jialiang came to Jiangnan City because of Xiao Mengqi."
"But at the same time, I'm curious. If Yuan Jialiang came here to work for Xiao Mengqi, why didn't he come to find Xiao Mengqi?"
"In other words, the time the two of them met was very little, which is totally inconsistent with what Yuan Jialiang dictated."
"Don't Xiao Mengqi have any doubts?" Officer Wang asked.
Zhao Junbo shook his head: "Xiao Mengqi is devoted to creation, and Yuan Jialiang and Yuan Jialiang are friends."
"Xiao Mengqi was very happy that Yuan Jialiang came to Jiangnan City. She felt that Yuan Jialiang didn't come to her often because of his busy work."
"But at the same time, she doesn't want Yuan Jialiang to come to her."
"It was only later, after Xiao Mengqi drowned, that Yuan Jialiang also got news and had conflicts with the locals."
"In the end, Master Xiao and I stopped it. Of course, we know that Yuan Jialiang and Xiao Mengqi are alumni, so Yuan Jialiang still listens to us."
"Then when did his suspicion start?" Yuan Shasha said.
Zhao Junbo squinted his eyes to think, and said slowly: "Maybe, he was the person who knew Xiao Mengqi best at that time, right?"
"Xiao Mengqi's creation was influenced by him in many aspects, because at that time Xiao Mengqi had already gotten over her ex-boyfriend's relationship problems."
"Yuan Jialiang must have known this, but when he heard that Xiao Mengqi had drowned due to relationship problems, he didn't believe it. It was precisely because of this that he had some conflicts with those neighbors who were gossips."
"Later, Yuan Jialiang, who was aggrieved, came to Master Xiao's house to help. I was also there at the time. He found me and asked me if the cause of Xiao Mengqi's death was real?"
"I said I didn't know, but he said he would definitely find out the truth for Xiao Mengqi."
Also hearing this, Gu Chen suddenly raised his head slightly and asked him: "So this Yuan Jialiang was actually the one who first discovered the strange cause of Xiao Mengqi's death, right?"
"It can be understood in this way." Zhao Junbo nodded slightly, and said: "At the time of Xiao Mengqi's death, everyone thought so, and thought that she committed suicide by jumping into the river because of emotional problems. This is the same as my previous assumption, and there is no problem at all."
After breathing heavily, Zhao Junbo shook his head helplessly: "But this Yuan Jialiang has always been relentless. It seems that he doesn't believe at all that Xiao Mengqi will commit suicide by jumping into the river because of that unworthy ex-boyfriend."
"So, he started actively looking for clues, and notified his former alumni of Xiao Mengqi's death, and let these people notify Xiao Mengqi's ex-boyfriend."
"For this reason, Xiao Mengqi's ex-boyfriend even came here on the day of Xiao Mengqi's funeral."
"He even thought that Xiao Mengqi actually committed suicide by jumping into the river because of him. After all, the relationship between the two of them is very good. If it wasn't for Master Xiao's obstruction back then, they might have been together long ago."
"So, Master Xiao felt that he had a fault in his heart. On the day of the funeral, when he saw Xiao Mengqi's ex-boyfriend kneel down and admit his mistake, he also saw the sincerity of Xiao Mengqi's ex-boyfriend, so he stopped pursuing it."
"Then Yuan Jialiang was at the funeral?" Lu Weiwei hurriedly asked.
Zhao Junbo nodded: "Of course he is also there. Yuan Jialiang said that he will find out the cause of Xiao Mengqi's death."
"That's it. During that time, I was very guilty. Every day I walked on the road, I was afraid."
"Zhao Xiaobin's disappearance allowed me to live a peaceful life in the Ouhuang Furniture Factory, and the death of the vagabond artist didn't affect me in the slightest, but Xiao Mengqi was the only one."
"When I found out that Xiao Mengqi was using my method of murder to make comics, it was too late, because she had already submitted part of the manuscript, and it was also being serialized in Neon Country."
With a heavy sigh, Zhao Junbo shook his head helplessly: "At that time, I knew that this "Ghost King" comic is the biggest unstable factor."
"Sure enough, in the days that followed, apart from working, Yuan Jialiang was investigating Xiao Mengqi's matter."
"But he's not a policeman, he's not going well in many ways, and that's it, 15 years."
"Originally, I thought that all of this could be done without worry. I even forgot what happened 15 years ago."
"In the past 15 years, I have hypocritically accompanied my godfather Zhao Changlin, and I have often gone out to find Zhao Xiaobin's whereabouts."
"Although I know that doing so is useless, because the real corpse of Zhao Xiaobin has been buried on that mountain, and it has become a charred corpse."
"No matter how Zhao Changlin searched, the result was the same, but I had to perform my tricks. In this way, 15 years of light and shadow passed quickly."
"I became the actual controller of Ouhuang Furniture Factory, and all the affairs of the family depended on me. I even married a beautiful wife and had a handsome son."
"All of this seems to be developing in a good direction, but one day, all of this is interrupted by an anonymous phone call."
"Anonymous call?" Hearing this, Lu Weiwei hurriedly asked: "Is this anonymous call from Yuan Jialiang?"
Zhao Junbo nodded silently: "At first I didn't know who it was? But later, the anonymous caller who used voice-changing software told me, remember Xiao Mengqi's drowning death 15 years ago?"
"When I heard this, I was stunned."
"Because, if it weren't for this anonymous call, I might have forgotten the existence of this matter."
"I was panicked and at a loss, so I asked who he was? I told him that I didn't know about Xiao Mengqi's death, and Xiao Mengqi's death had already been confirmed 15 years ago."
"But the phone call told me that things were not that simple at all. The person on the phone could clearly tell me what happened in Wangchao Town that year, and also told me that Xiao Mengqi recorded it in the "Ghost King" comic. "
Taking a deep breath, Zhao Junbo was also very annoyed at this moment, and said in despair: "I was going crazy at the time, obviously everything was settled, but today, 15 years later, there will be another wave."
"But I'm not a vegetarian either. I quickly remembered that Yuan Jialiang once said that he would definitely find out the cause of Xiao Mengqi's death."
"Because in his heart, Xiao Mengqi has always been the woman he loves deeply, so he won't let it go."
Hearing this, Yuan Shasha couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "It seems that Yuan Jialiang is really persistent. For 15 years, he has never given up on these things."
Looking up at Zhao Junbo, Yuan Shasha said again: "Then what happened later? Did this Yuan Jialiang come to see you?"
"Yes, just this time." Zhao Junbo no longer concealed it now.
Officer Wang frowned: "What did you say? Just this time? So, Yuan Jialiang came from Hubei province this time just for Xiao Mengqi's matter?"
"En." Zhao Junbo didn't refute, just nodded silently, and said involuntarily:
"This is the vow he made back then, because just a while ago, he found some key clues in the social posts sent to her by Xiao Mengqi's fans."
"Because Xiao Mengqi's works were serialized overseas before, and because of the sensitive subject matter, they cannot be disseminated and serialized in China. Even pirated comics will be deleted by the corresponding platforms."
"So, Yuan Jialiang before, he couldn't see Xiao Mengqi's "Ghost King" work."
"But now, someone has taken screenshots of some of the main plots of the "Ghost King" comics back then, and put them in the exchange post."
"And all of this happened to be seen by Yuan Jialiang."
"Because of this, Yuan Jialiang finally found the relevant plot of the "Ghost King" comics through some channels, and only then did he know that there is a plot in the "Ghost King" comics, which is about a fire in a small town."
"And the wandering artist who died in the fire was not the wandering artist himself, but the missing son of a local wealthy businessman."
"This moment woke up Yuan Jialiang, and he suddenly realized that the fire that happened 15 years ago might not be what he imagined at all."
"In the end, Yuan Jialiang started to follow the clues in the comics, and gradually found out that in Wangchao Town, the son of a furniture factory owner disappeared, and that person was Zhao Xiaobin."
"And Zhao Xiaobin had conflicts with me before he disappeared. Because I knew Xiao Mengqi, he naturally thought that maybe I was obstructing all of this."
"Because he knew the reason of the matter, Yuan Jialiang quickly realized that Xiao Mengqi had already drawn the truth into the comics, so Yuan Jialiang took the initiative to contact me and wanted to ask me for an explanation."
"Then what did you tell him?" Officer Wang asked.
Zhao Junbo moved his body again, and said slowly: "I asked him if he was Yuan Jialiang? He was silent."
"From that moment on, I knew clearly that he was Yuan Jialiang. I said, if you want to know the truth, just listen to me, and I will tell you the answer."
"Besides, I want to spend as much time with him as possible and let him come to Wangchao Town."
"Did he agree?" Gu Chen asked.
"Agreed, he agreed." Zhao Junbo nodded slightly, panting and said:
"This Yuan Jialiang really has the guts, but I know very well that Yuan Jialiang has no idea in his heart. He doesn't know if all this is true? Or was it because of the fire that year that stimulated Xiao Mengqi, or some kind of Creative inspiration?"
"That's why I drew these contents into her "Ghost King" comics."
Panting heavily, trying to calm down, Zhao Junbo said again:
"Of course, in order to confirm this, we must first know the condition of the charred corpse."
"At that time, the time I made an appointment with Yuan Jialiang was the time of the blueberry picking festival in Wangchao Town."
"Because at that time, many tourists and merchants from other places will rush to Wangchao Town to participate in this annual event, so everyone's attention will be focused on the blueberry picking festival."
"In this way, I can solve the problem one-on-one with Yuan Jialiang."
"That's not right." Hearing what Zhao Junbo said, Gu Chen also corrected him: "But this Yuan Jialiang arrived in Wangchao Town before the blueberry picking festival in Wangchao Town, and he arrived in advance."
"That's right." Seeing Gu Chen's questioning, Zhao Junbo also confessed: "Because Yuan Jialiang wanted to know the truth, he had to confirm the condition of the corpse."
"Because he was also in Jiangnan City 15 years ago. The fire at the sponge factory, Zhao Xiaobin's disappearance, and Xiao Mengqi's suicide by jumping into a river are actually relatively close in time."
"Thus, Yuan Jialiang also probably knows that the so-called wandering artist back then is still buried on the mountain near Wangchao Town."
"As long as he finds a way to prove that the corpse is not a wandering entertainer, then he has the initiative."
"Then why didn't he call the police? Let the police come forward to solve this problem?" Lu Weiwei also felt very strange.
Compared with this kind of thing, it would be more comfortable for the police to come forward.
But Zhao Junbo shook his head and said, "You take it for granted, this thing has happened for 15 years."
"What happened in the past 15 years, many people who experienced it back then have no impression, and even many people who experienced it back then are no longer in Wangchao Town."
"At this time, you, a foreigner, suddenly ran to Wangchao Town and told the police that the person buried in that coffin was not a wandering artist. Do you think anyone would believe it?"
It was also asked by Zhao Junbo. Everyone looked at each other and felt understandable.
After all, if he was the one who took over, everyone might look confused, and they wouldn't start mobilizing people just based on Yuan Jialiang's guess, and they might express more doubts.
"That's why Yuan Jialiang was worried about these things, so he thought of coming to Wangchao Town 10 days in advance. The purpose is to dig out the charred corpse by himself, and then come for an appraisal, right?" Gu Chen asked.
"It's ridiculous, isn't it?" Facing Gu Chen's question, Zhao Junbo smiled and shook his head helplessly:
"At that time, I was actually paying attention to every move in Wangchao Town every day, because I knew that I asked Yuan Jialiang to meet him in Wangchao Town, and the time was the blueberry picking festival."
"But, will Yuan Jialiang honestly meet with me on time? I don't think so. After all, we don't have a sense of trust in each other."
"Since Yuan Jialiang suspects that I am the murderer who killed Xiao Mengqi back then, he will certainly not believe my nonsense."
"If he wants to take the initiative when meeting, he must have some necessary clues."
Speaking of this, Zhao Junbo himself laughed out loud, shook his head, and said mockingly: "This Yuan Jialiang is an idiot, does he think he is a policeman? Or Captain Mo Jin?"
"Just such a person, single-handedly, came to Wangchao Town 10 days in advance."
"Does he really think this is his home field? Hehe, he doesn't know it. From the moment he entered Wangchao Town, he was in my eyes."
"As a person who has been in Wangchao Town for a long time, his every move of Yuan Jialiang cannot escape my eyes."
"From then on, I found that Yuan Jialiang would go to the nearby mountains every morning and evening."
"And on that mountain, what is there for Yuan Jialiang to go to? I guess, there is only that charred corpse."
"So I conclude that Yuan Jialiang should go to the mountain to dig up the corpse."
"However, in order to avoid exposing his actions, Yuan Jialiang only carried some portable tools with him, that kind of gadgets."
"And all of this, I watched secretly, because in those days, I had been secretly observing Yuan Jialiang's every move."
"I found out that after he exhumed the body, he secretly moved it to another location."
"I guess, he may also notice, and maybe I will notice the importance of this corpse."
"Because if the charred corpse cannot be found, the police will not be able to determine the true identity of the charred corpse after they intervene."
"In this way, the person lying in this coffin can only be a wandering entertainer, not Zhao Xiaobin."
"But because Yuan Jialiang came here alone, he didn't dare to disclose the matter to others, so he had to dig out the body and then move it to another place for burial."
"Finally, bury the empty coffin in the soil again."
At the end, Zhao Junbo was also out of breath.
And Gu Chen finally figured out the ins and outs of the matter.
The person who co-authored and worked on for a long time, excavating and transferring the remains of the corpse was Yuan Jialiang from beginning to end.
Gu Chen raised his head and stared at Zhao Junbo in front of him, and asked, "Then what happened later? You wanted to kill? How did you kill Yuan Jialiang in that ancient temple on the mountain?"
"Ashamed." Hearing what Gu Chen said, Zhao Junbo couldn't help but shook his head, sighed and said:
"Originally, I already knew about Yuan Jialiang's transfer of the corpse's bones, so I thought, under the pretense of asking him to meet, I would take this opportunity to solve this trouble."
"Because I know that there is a hermit in the ancient temple building, named Zhou Zheng, who is also an outsider, and he usually goes out regularly."
"So you took advantage of this gap and invited Yuan Jialiang to this building to discuss matters?" Gu Chen asked.
"Yes." Zhao Junbo did not deny it, and confessed honestly: "I have no choice but to invite Yuan Jialiang to this building to discuss matters, because I want to divert your police's attention and make your police mistakenly think that Yuan Jialiang's death is related to Zhou Zheng, a hermit."
"After all, if Yuan Jialiang died in Zhou Zheng's bedroom, then Zhou Zheng would obviously not be able to explain clearly."
"But I remember that Zhou Zheng locked the door when he went out, but you..." Thinking of this, Lu Weiwei felt something was wrong.
But Zhao Junbo admitted generously: "It's nothing? Because I have some friendship with this Zhou Zheng. Once Zhou Zheng invited me to his residence, but because he came to the mountain, Zhou Zheng lost his key."
"While I was worrying about this matter, Zhou Zheng found a spare key in a corner of the house to open the door."
"At first, I thought that this guy would change the lock because of this, but he didn't. It wasn't until I accidentally picked up a bunch of keys in the grass on a sloping field when I went down the mountain, that I realized it belonged to Zhou Zheng."
"But I had already gone down the mountain at that time, so I thought about finding time to return it to him another day."
"But after going back and forth, I gradually forgot this point, until I received a call from Yuan Jialiang, and later, Yuan Jialiang secretly transferred the remains of the corpse on the mountain."
"I thought, maybe Zhou Zheng's residence can be used to solve Yuan Jialiang's trouble."
"So I asked Yuan Jialiang to go up the mountain while Zhou Zheng was out, and opened the door with the key I picked up."
"That is, in Zhou Zheng's residence, I used Zhou Zheng's tableware to poison Yuan Jialiang's drinking water."
Sighing heavily, Zhao Junbo looked at Gu Chen weakly, and then said: "I think your police are clear about the following things, and you should be able to detect that the deceased Yuan Jialiang died of poisoning."
"That's right, we did detect this point." Officer Wang said.
Zhao Junbo nodded silently: "So, Yuan Jialiang died like this. I even wiped out all traces of me at the scene."
"Because from the very beginning, I paid special attention to my traces. I originally thought that after Yuan Jialiang was disposed of, I would quietly transfer Yuan Jialiang's body."
"It's a coincidence that when I was about to transfer the corpse, I noticed some movement down the mountain. Only then did I realize that it was Zhou Zheng who came back early."
"But at the same time, there are a group of strangers around Zhou Zheng, especially you, Gu Chen. You were brilliant at the poetry conference at the Blueberry Picking Festival in Wangchao Town. I also noticed you at the time, so I know your truth. identity."
"Because, in order to avoid being discovered, I had no choice but to escape temporarily, which is why you found Yuan Jialiang's body in Zhou Zheng's bedroom."
"So that's the case?" Listening to Zhao Junbo's narration, Lu Weiwei was also dumbfounded and said, "So, you were at the scene of the discovery?"
"That's right." Zhao Junbo lowered his head, and said in frustration at the moment: "If I acted faster, maybe I wouldn't be discovered."
"Thousands of calculations have been made, but Zhou Zhenghui will come back early."
"And not only that, Zhou Zheng brought you back together, which made me a little bit at a loss at the time. I could only give up transferring the corpse and quietly hid in a corner of the mountain forest by myself."
"Just watched you enter the room and found the body."
"Then how did you get down the mountain?" Gu Chen was also very curious, as he didn't seem to have seen any trace of Zhao Junbo on the mountain road.
But Zhao Junbo said with a light smile: "It's very simple. There are several mountain roads. I'm not on the main road, so I need to take some detours, but they are more secretive."
"I take the path, so I won't meet you, that's how I left."
With two heavy sighs, Zhao Junbo also choked up, and said helplessly:
"But I never expected that Yuan Jialiang would save me a hand. He was on the side of the coffin, and he also moved the location of the buried corpse, leaving some clues."
Looking up at Gu Chen, Zhao Junbo said unwillingly, "I didn't expect that you would use this ghost head pattern to quickly find the "Ghost King" comic."
"Then I used the Ghost King manga to gradually find my godfather Zhao Changlin, and even went to Haitian Orphanage to investigate me."
Taking a breath, Zhao Junbo said in disbelief, "When I was interrogated by you, I was really frightened."
"After all, it's not difficult for me to see from your investigations at the Haitian Welfare Institute that you have already begun to doubt me."
"It's just that I didn't expect that your progress would be so fast? In a short period of time, you locked the suspect target on me."
"If I hadn't been scared, I wouldn't have fallen into your trap at all."
"Hehe." Hearing what Zhao Junbo said, Police Officer Wang couldn't help laughing, and said helplessly, "Zhao Junbo, Zhao Junbo, do you know why you were arrested? It's because you are too smart."
Glancing back at Gu Chen, Police Officer Wang said again: "Of course, the key is our Gu Chen, he insisted on going to Haitian Orphanage."
"It was this trip to the Haitian Welfare Institute that allowed us to meet the person in charge, Dean Liu Shufen."
"In the communication with Dean Liu Shufen, I discovered a big problem, that is, you Zhao Junbo. You have been adopted twice, but you were abandoned twice."
"This question, in normal times, might make people curious, but you have some important connection with Zhao Xiaobin's disappearance. You were even the only person who had conflicts with Zhao Xiaobin before he disappeared."
"In addition, Dean Liu Shufen helped us analyze your character like a cocoon, which made us realize that you are actually an extremely dangerous person."
"Especially when we heard that you were abandoned by adoptive families twice when you were less than 10 years old, we were stunned."
"Yes." As soon as Police Officer Wang finished speaking, Lu Weiwei couldn't help but echoed:
"The most important thing is that when we heard that you broke the elder brother of the second adoptive family with boiling water in a hot pot, I couldn't believe it. This is something that a child under 10 years old would do. This is cruel."
"Furthermore, based on this point, Dean Liu Shufen gave us an analysis of the changes after you were abandoned by the second adoptive family. This made us feel even more that Zhao Xiaobin's disappearance may have something to do with you."
With a heavy sigh, Lu Weiwei also slowly said: "Sure enough, later we found Xiao Mengqi, his father, classmates, and ex-boyfriend through the ghost king manga."
"After communicating with them, and investigating the cause of Yuan Jialiang's death, I discovered that there are actually some special connections between you people."
"Especially those 15 years ago, one after another of strange incidents happened in Wangchao Town, seemingly unrelated, but in fact there are traces to be found."
"Because all the incidents are related to you, Zhao Junbo, and you are the very unstable factor that Dean Liu Shufen said."
"That's why we concluded that the murderer may be you."
"That's right." As soon as Lu Weiwei finished speaking, Yuan Shasha couldn't help but interjected:
"We were not sure before, but now, it seems that everything has been settled. What you have done yourself, so you have ghosts in your heart."
"So after we conspired with your godfather Zhao Changlin, you were decisively recruited. We first let your godfather show his flaws and convinced you that what your godfather said in the follow-up is the truth, so we tricked you to the blueberry base , let you reveal your true colors."
"Hehe." Hearing this, Zhao Junbo couldn't help laughing dryly, and said helplessly:
"If I didn't come to the scene tonight, would it be difficult for you to find a flaw?"
"That's not the case. We can use other means, but relatively speaking, this trick will be more convenient to lure the snake out of the hole." Gu Chen also told the truth.
After all, criminals have a certain curiosity.
Especially when someone says that there are witnesses, it is tantamount to declaring that his crime will be confirmed.
Therefore, most criminal suspects will not calmly make some extreme and stupid behaviors.
Gu Chen also took advantage of this point, and tried and tested many cases with success.
Of course, including this time, letting Zhao Junbo throw himself into the trap, this has obviously achieved Gu Chen's expected goal.
At this moment, Zhao Junbo was a little desperate, shaking his head and sighing in pain: "It's really unlucky for me to meet you."
"Zhao Junbo." Police officer Wang stared at Zhao Junbo in front of him, and said in a bad mood: "You have done all kinds of bad things, but you have enjoyed 15 years of good fortune, and everyone said that evil will be rewarded with evil. It's not that the time has not come. "
"I think you are a scumbag, you should have been caught a long time ago. People are doing the things you do, and the sky is watching. Do you think you are going to hide?"
"Don't you know that there is a saying? You can hide from the first day of junior high school, but you can't hide from the fifteenth day."
"That's right." Hearing this, Lu Weiwei said unhappily, "And people like you not only escaped the first and fifteenth grades of junior high school, but also escaped for 15 years."
"For a scum like you, 15 years is simply an insult to justice, so now is also the time for you to really accept the legal trial, get up for me."
Also seeing Zhao Junbo at this moment, still lying on the side of the slope with a leisurely look, Lu Weiwei can't wait to go up and give him a kick.
In order for him to confess his crimes, Comrade Wang even sacrificed a cigarette he was reluctant to smoke.
So under the pull of several people, Zhao Junbo was led up by the crowd and started to walk towards the entrance of the blueberry base.
At the same time, directors Xu Feng and Zhang Wenxia were already driving a police car and parked on the side of the road.
After they escorted Zhao Junbo into the car, they temporarily returned to the Wangchao Town Police Station.
...
...
1:15 am.
When two police cars drove into the compound of Wangchao Town Police Station, Zhao Changlin, who had been waiting at the door for a long time, now stood under the streetlight, looking extremely haggard.
Zhao Changlin was stunned when he saw his adopted son Zhao Junbo being taken out of the police car by everyone.
After getting off the car, Zhao Junbo has already discovered his godfather Zhao Changlin.
But at this moment, Zhao Junbo didn't even dare to look up.
"Let's go." Lu Weiwei yelled fiercely, and pushed Zhao Junbo forward with his hands clasped behind his back.
Zhao Junbo was somewhat repelled, he didn't dare to pass by his godfather Zhao Changlin.
However, under the push and push of Police Officer Wang and Lu Weiwei, Zhao Junbo reluctantly lowered his head and walked quickly to the side.
"stop!"
Just when Zhao Junbo was about to pass by his godfather Zhao Changlin, Zhao Changlin, who had been standing at the door of the hall at first, suddenly stopped Zhao Junbo.
Zhao Junbo's heart skipped a beat, but he still didn't dare to look directly at Zhao Changlin.
At this time, Police Officer Wang and Lu Weiwei also knew that Zhao Changlin wanted to communicate with Zhao Junbo, so out of human nature, they did not rush to take Zhao Junbo to the police station, but detained Zhao Junbo on the spot.
At this moment, Zhao Junbo felt that he was dead. Seeing his godfather Zhao Changlin walking towards him step by step, Zhao Junbo panicked completely.
"Raise your head up." Zhao Changlin who was facing him said coldly.
But even so, Zhao Junbo was already in a panic at the moment, he didn't dare to look up, and he didn't dare to look at his godfather.
However, in the next second, Zhao Changlin, who was weak, yelled at Zhao Changlin in front of him in a filial tone, and roared almost like a lion's roar: "Raise your head for me."
Maybe it was the old man who was taken aback by the lion's roar. This godfather who never lost his temper with him is now a stranger.
Zhao Junbo, with a guilty conscience, could only slowly raise his head with a mechanical disjointed movement.
But at this time, Zhao Changlin saw his head getting closer, fixed his bloodshot eyes on Zhao Junbo in front of him with the position almost touching the tip of his nose, but his tone became cold again.
"Your brother Zhao Xiaobin, did you kill him?" Zhao Changlin asked.
Zhao Junbo was scared out of his wits at this moment, he just raised his head slightly, but he didn't dare to speak.
But at this moment, Zhao Changlin turned his eyes closer.
At this moment, the breathing of both sides seems to be able to perceive each other.
"I'll ask you again, your brother Zhao Xiaobin, did you kill him? Did you?"
This time, the old man Zhao Changlin asked again with almost resolute eyes.
Zhao Junbo, who was already trembling all over, could no longer bear the pressure at this moment, so he could only nod silently, and passively admitted: "Yes... yes!"
"Snapped!"
Zhao Changlin slapped Zhao Junbo on the face, and asked again: "Is it?"
"Yes... yes." Faced with the old man's questioning, Zhao Junbo admitted again.
"Snapped!"
Another slap on Zhao Junbo's face, the old man continued to ask in the same tone: "Is it really? Is it?"
Zhao Junbo, whose cheeks were already a little bloated, was out of breath at the moment, but when faced with the kind of terrifying eyes that Zhao Changlin had never seen before, Zhao Junbo nodded again and admitted: "Yes, I killed it."
"Snapped!"
As soon as the words fell, the old man Zhao Changlin slapped Zhao Junbo on the face again.
But this time, the old man almost used all his strength.
At this time, Zhao Junbo's left cheek was also swollen.
Seeing this, Gu Chen hurriedly stepped forward to stop him and said, "Boss Zhao, calm down first."
"Officer Gu, don't worry about it. If I don't kill this bastard today, my surname will not be Zhao. I will kill you bastard, you bastard."

When Gu Chen heard this, he suddenly felt that all the clues of the case seemed to be somewhat different from what he had imagined. However, the overall direction of the case did not deviate from his own cognition. At the very least, the bizarre fire in the sponge factory 15 years ago can actually prove that it was Zhao Junbo in front of him who was doing the tricks. Moreover, Zhao Xiaobin, the vagabond artist, and Xiao Mengqi later all died at the hands of Zhao Junbo. Such a cruel method shocked everyone present. But when Zhao Junbo mentioned his operation method, it seemed to be different from the previous ones. According to Bao Chen's reasoning before, these people, including Xiao Mengqi and Yuan Jialiang, should be Zhao Junbo's accomplices, helping him dispose of the corpse, so that everything looks normal. But in the situation Zhao Junbo explained, it seemed that he was operating all of this alone, while Xiao Mengqi and Yuan Jialiang seemed to be bystanders from the beginning to the end. Especially Xiao Mengqi, who just found Zhao Xiaobin that night, and finally saw Zhao Junbo's clothes brought home to wash, and helped him hide the truth, that's all. However, Xiao Mengqi's death was actually planned by Zhao Junbo, and because Zhao Junbo was not at ease with Xiao Mengqi, he finally found Xiao Mengqi's "Ghost King" sketch at Xiao Mengqi's home. It can be said that although the draft of "Ghost King" is not circulated in the country, it is the Internet age. Zhao Junbo knows that Xiao Mengqi's works are very popular in the neon country, and sooner or later they will be known by domestic netizens. But once Xiao Mengqi became well-known in the country, the exposure would come back sooner or later, but once domestic netizens knew, there was a plot about the fire at the sponge factory in Wangchao Town in the "Ghost King" comic. Then there is no doubt that sooner or later the police will use this clue to find out the specific identity of the charred corpse burned to death in the sponge factory fire. But in this way, it is obviously not good for him. Therefore, in order to be safe enough for himself, Zhao Junbo tricked Xiao Mengqi to the riverside at all costs, and then drowned her in the river. In the end, with the blessing of rumors, a perfect crime was created in which Xiao Mengqi was depressed because of relationship problems, and finally committed suicide by jumping into a river. But Zhao Junbo never expected that today, 15 years later, after evading investigation for 15 years, he would be caught by the young policeman in front of him. Of course, Zhao Junbo is also very clear that sooner or later he has to pay back when he comes out to play, but he fell at this time, and Zhao Junbo felt unwilling. He has everything now, children, family, property, and even parents. Losing everything back then may not be as heartbreaking as it is now. Therefore, after Zhao Junbo answered the question just now, he smiled bitterly. Perhaps this kind of disguise of a smile can make him feel better. Gu Chen looked up at Zhao Junbo, and asked sharply, "Yuan Jialiang didn't participate in your crime, so does he know the cause of Xiao Mengqi's death?" "I don't know." Zhao Junbo shook his head. "I don't know? Isn't it right? On the side of the coffin on the mountain, and the place where the corpse was transferred and buried, there are images of the ghost king. It is obvious that someone is alerting us to the police." "And the person who reminded us of the police should be Yuan Jialiang, right?" Lu Weiwei said. Zhao Junbo hesitated for a few seconds, but still nodded and admitted: "Maybe, but I didn't pay attention to these." Gu Chen nodded slightly: "That means that Yuan Jialiang knows what happened." "And this Yuan Jialiang may have been inspired by Xiao Mengqi's serialized ghost king comics, because Yuan Jialiang has always been a loyal reader of Xiao Mengqi's comics, and his screen name should be Bad Man." Hearing Gu Chen's narration, Zhao Junbo also sighed and said, "He really didn't know at first, but Yuan Jialiang is smarter." "Because I heard Xiao Mengqi talk about some things between her and Yuan Jialiang, so I know that Yuan Jialiang came to Jiangnan City because of Xiao Mengqi." "But at the same time, I'm curious. If Yuan Jialiang came here to work for Xiao Mengqi, why didn't he come to find Xiao Mengqi?" "In other words, the time the two of them met was very little, which is totally inconsistent with what Yuan Jialiang dictated." "Don't Xiao Mengqi have any doubts?" Officer Wang asked. Zhao Junbo shook his head: "Xiao Mengqi is devoted to creation, and Yuan Jialiang and Yuan Jialiang are friends." "Xiao Mengqi was very happy that Yuan Jialiang came to Jiangnan City. She felt that Yuan Jialiang didn't come to her often because of his busy work." "But at the same time, she doesn't want Yuan Jialiang to come to her." "It was only later, after Xiao Mengqi drowned, that Yuan Jialiang also got news and had conflicts with the locals." "In the end, Master Xiao and I stopped it. Of course, we know that Yuan Jialiang and Xiao Mengqi are alumni, so Yuan Jialiang still listens to us." "Then when did his suspicion start?" Yuan Shasha said. Zhao Junbo squinted his eyes to think, and said slowly: "Maybe, he was the person who knew Xiao Mengqi best at that time, right?" "Xiao Mengqi's creation was influenced by him in many aspects, because at that time Xiao Mengqi had already gotten over her ex-boyfriend's relationship problems." "Yuan Jialiang must have known this, but when he heard that Xiao Mengqi had drowned due to relationship problems, he didn't believe it. It was precisely because of this that he had some conflicts with those neighbors who were gossips." "Later, Yuan Jialiang, who was aggrieved, came to Master Xiao's house to help. I was also there at the time. He found me and asked me if the cause of Xiao Mengqi's death was real?" "I said I didn't know, but he said he would definitely find out the truth for Xiao Mengqi." Also hearing this, Gu Chen suddenly raised his head slightly and asked him: "So this Yuan Jialiang was actually the one who first discovered the strange cause of Xiao Mengqi's death, right?" "It can be understood in this way." Zhao Junbo nodded slightly, and said: "At the time of Xiao Mengqi's death, everyone thought so, and thought that she committed suicide by jumping into the river because of emotional problems. This is the same as my previous assumption, and there is no problem at all." After breathing heavily, Zhao Junbo shook his head helplessly: "But this Yuan Jialiang has always been relentless. It seems that he doesn't believe at all that Xiao Mengqi will commit suicide by jumping into the river because of that unworthy ex-boyfriend." "So, he started actively looking for clues, and notified his former alumni of Xiao Mengqi's death, and let these people notify Xiao Mengqi's ex-boyfriend." "For this reason, Xiao Mengqi's ex-boyfriend even came here on the day of Xiao Mengqi's funeral." "He even thought that Xiao Mengqi actually committed suicide by jumping into the river because of him. After all, the relationship between the two of them is very good. If it wasn't for Master Xiao's obstruction back then, they might have been together long ago." "So, Master Xiao felt that he had a fault in his heart. On the day of the funeral, when he saw Xiao Mengqi's ex-boyfriend kneel down and admit his mistake, he also saw the sincerity of Xiao Mengqi's ex-boyfriend, so he stopped pursuing it." "Then Yuan Jialiang was at the funeral?" Lu Weiwei hurriedly asked. Zhao Junbo nodded: "Of course he is also there. Yuan Jialiang said that he will find out the cause of Xiao Mengqi's death." "That's it. During that time, I was very guilty. Every day I walked on the road, I was afraid." "Zhao Xiaobin's disappearance allowed me to live a peaceful life in the Ouhuang Furniture Factory, and the death of the vagabond artist didn't affect me in the slightest, but Xiao Mengqi was the only one." "When I found out that Xiao Mengqi was using my method of murder to make comics, it was too late, because she had already submitted part of the manuscript, and it was also being serialized in Neon Country." With a heavy sigh, Zhao Junbo shook his head helplessly: "At that time, I knew that this "Ghost King" comic is the biggest unstable factor." "Sure enough, in the days that followed, apart from working, Yuan Jialiang was investigating Xiao Mengqi's matter." "But he's not a policeman, he's not going well in many ways, and that's it, 15 years." "Originally, I thought that all of this could be done without worry. I even forgot what happened 15 years ago." "In the past 15 years, I have hypocritically accompanied my godfather Zhao Changlin, and I have often gone out to find Zhao Xiaobin's whereabouts." "Although I know that doing so is useless, because the real corpse of Zhao Xiaobin has been buried on that mountain, and it has become a charred corpse." "No matter how Zhao Changlin searched, the result was the same, but I had to perform my tricks. In this way, 15 years of light and shadow passed quickly." "I became the actual controller of Ouhuang Furniture Factory, and all the affairs of the family depended on me. I even married a beautiful wife and had a handsome son." "All of this seems to be developing in a good direction, but one day, all of this is interrupted by an anonymous phone call." "Anonymous call?" Hearing this, Lu Weiwei hurriedly asked: "Is this anonymous call from Yuan Jialiang?" Zhao Junbo nodded silently: "At first I didn't know who it was? But later, the anonymous caller who used voice-changing software told me, remember Xiao Mengqi's drowning death 15 years ago?" "When I heard this, I was stunned." "Because, if it weren't for this anonymous call, I might have forgotten the existence of this matter." "I was panicked and at a loss, so I asked who he was? I told him that I didn't know about Xiao Mengqi's death, and Xiao Mengqi's death had already been confirmed 15 years ago." "But the phone call told me that things were not that simple at all. The person on the phone could clearly tell me what happened in Wangchao Town that year, and also told me that Xiao Mengqi recorded it in the "Ghost King" comic. " Taking a deep breath, Zhao Junbo was also very annoyed at this moment, and said in despair: "I was going crazy at the time, obviously everything was settled, but today, 15 years later, there will be another wave." "But I'm not a vegetarian either. I quickly remembered that Yuan Jialiang once said that he would definitely find out the cause of Xiao Mengqi's death." "Because in his heart, Xiao Mengqi has always been the woman he loves deeply, so he won't let it go." Hearing this, Yuan Shasha couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "It seems that Yuan Jialiang is really persistent. For 15 years, he has never given up on these things." Looking up at Zhao Junbo, Yuan Shasha said again: "Then what happened later? Did this Yuan Jialiang come to see you?" "Yes, just this time." Zhao Junbo no longer concealed it now. Officer Wang frowned: "What did you say? Just this time? So, Yuan Jialiang came from Hubei province this time just for Xiao Mengqi's matter?" "En." Zhao Junbo didn't refute, just nodded silently, and said involuntarily: "This is the vow he made back then, because just a while ago, he found some key clues in the social posts sent to her by Xiao Mengqi's fans." "Because Xiao Mengqi's works were serialized overseas before, and because of the sensitive subject matter, they cannot be disseminated and serialized in China. Even pirated comics will be deleted by the corresponding platforms." "So, Yuan Jialiang before, he couldn't see Xiao Mengqi's "Ghost King" work." "But now, someone has taken screenshots of some of the main plots of the "Ghost King" comics back then, and put them in the exchange post." "And all of this happened to be seen by Yuan Jialiang." "Because of this, Yuan Jialiang finally found the relevant plot of the "Ghost King" comics through some channels, and only then did he know that there is a plot in the "Ghost King" comics, which is about a fire in a small town." "And the wandering artist who died in the fire was not the wandering artist himself, but the missing son of a local wealthy businessman." "This moment woke up Yuan Jialiang, and he suddenly realized that the fire that happened 15 years ago might not be what he imagined at all." "In the end, Yuan Jialiang started to follow the clues in the comics, and gradually found out that in Wangchao Town, the son of a furniture factory owner disappeared, and that person was Zhao Xiaobin." "And Zhao Xiaobin had conflicts with me before he disappeared. Because I knew Xiao Mengqi, he naturally thought that maybe I was obstructing all of this." "Because he knew the reason of the matter, Yuan Jialiang quickly realized that Xiao Mengqi had already drawn the truth into the comics, so Yuan Jialiang took the initiative to contact me and wanted to ask me for an explanation." "Then what did you tell him?" Officer Wang asked. Zhao Junbo moved his body again, and said slowly: "I asked him if he was Yuan Jialiang? He was silent." "From that moment on, I knew clearly that he was Yuan Jialiang. I said, if you want to know the truth, just listen to me, and I will tell you the answer." "Besides, I want to spend as much time with him as possible and let him come to Wangchao Town." "Did he agree?" Gu Chen asked. "Agreed, he agreed." Zhao Junbo nodded slightly, panting and said: "This Yuan Jialiang really has the guts, but I know very well that Yuan Jialiang has no idea in his heart. He doesn't know if all this is true? Or was it because of the fire that year that stimulated Xiao Mengqi, or some kind of Creative inspiration?" "That's why I drew these contents into her "Ghost King" comics." Panting heavily, trying to calm down, Zhao Junbo said again: "Of course, in order to confirm this, we must first know the condition of the charred corpse." "At that time, the time I made an appointment with Yuan Jialiang was the time of the blueberry picking festival in Wangchao Town." "Because at that time, many tourists and merchants from other places will rush to Wangchao Town to participate in this annual event, so everyone's attention will be focused on the blueberry picking festival." "In this way, I can solve the problem one-on-one with Yuan Jialiang." "That's not right." Hearing what Zhao Junbo said, Gu Chen also corrected him: "But this Yuan Jialiang arrived in Wangchao Town before the blueberry picking festival in Wangchao Town, and he arrived in advance." "That's right." Seeing Gu Chen's questioning, Zhao Junbo also confessed: "Because Yuan Jialiang wanted to know the truth, he had to confirm the condition of the corpse." "Because he was also in Jiangnan City 15 years ago. The fire at the sponge factory, Zhao Xiaobin's disappearance, and Xiao Mengqi's suicide by jumping into a river are actually relatively close in time." "Thus, Yuan Jialiang also probably knows that the so-called wandering artist back then is still buried on the mountain near Wangchao Town." "As long as he finds a way to prove that the corpse is not a wandering entertainer, then he has the initiative." "Then why didn't he call the police? Let the police come forward to solve this problem?" Lu Weiwei also felt very strange. Compared with this kind of thing, it would be more comfortable for the police to come forward. But Zhao Junbo shook his head and said, "You take it for granted, this thing has happened for 15 years." "What happened in the past 15 years, many people who experienced it back then have no impression, and even many people who experienced it back then are no longer in Wangchao Town." "At this time, you, a foreigner, suddenly ran to Wangchao Town and told the police that the person buried in that coffin was not a wandering artist. Do you think anyone would believe it?" It was also asked by Zhao Junbo. Everyone looked at each other and felt understandable. After all, if he was the one who took over, everyone might look confused, and they wouldn't start mobilizing people just based on Yuan Jialiang's guess, and they might express more doubts. "That's why Yuan Jialiang was worried about these things, so he thought of coming to Wangchao Town 10 days in advance. The purpose is to dig out the charred corpse by himself, and then come for an appraisal, right?" Gu Chen asked. "It's ridiculous, isn't it?" Facing Gu Chen's question, Zhao Junbo smiled and shook his head helplessly: "At that time, I was actually paying attention to every move in Wangchao Town every day, because I knew that I asked Yuan Jialiang to meet him in Wangchao Town, and the time was the blueberry picking festival." "But, will Yuan Jialiang honestly meet with me on time? I don't think so. After all, we don't have a sense of trust in each other." "Since Yuan Jialiang suspects that I am the murderer who killed Xiao Mengqi back then, he will certainly not believe my nonsense." "If he wants to take the initiative when meeting, he must have some necessary clues." Speaking of this, Zhao Junbo himself laughed out loud, shook his head, and said mockingly: "This Yuan Jialiang is an idiot, does he think he is a policeman? Or Captain Mo Jin?" "Just such a person, single-handedly, came to Wangchao Town 10 days in advance." "Does he really think this is his home field? Hehe, he doesn't know it. From the moment he entered Wangchao Town, he was in my eyes." "As a person who has been in Wangchao Town for a long time, his every move of Yuan Jialiang cannot escape my eyes." "From then on, I found that Yuan Jialiang would go to the nearby mountains every morning and evening." "And on that mountain, what is there for Yuan Jialiang to go to? I guess, there is only that charred corpse." "So I conclude that Yuan Jialiang should go to the mountain to dig up the corpse." "However, in order to avoid exposing his actions, Yuan Jialiang only carried some portable tools with him, that kind of gadgets." "And all of this, I watched secretly, because in those days, I had been secretly observing Yuan Jialiang's every move." "I found out that after he exhumed the body, he secretly moved it to another location." "I guess, he may also notice, and maybe I will notice the importance of this corpse." "Because if the charred corpse cannot be found, the police will not be able to determine the true identity of the charred corpse after they intervene." "In this way, the person lying in this coffin can only be a wandering entertainer, not Zhao Xiaobin." "But because Yuan Jialiang came here alone, he didn't dare to disclose the matter to others, so he had to dig out the body and then move it to another place for burial." "Finally, bury the empty coffin in the soil again." At the end, Zhao Junbo was also out of breath. And Gu Chen finally figured out the ins and outs of the matter. The person who co-authored and worked on for a long time, excavating and transferring the remains of the corpse was Yuan Jialiang from beginning to end. Gu Chen raised his head and stared at Zhao Junbo in front of him, and asked, "Then what happened later? You wanted to kill? How did you kill Yuan Jialiang in that ancient temple on the mountain?" "Ashamed." Hearing what Gu Chen said, Zhao Junbo couldn't help but shook his head, sighed and said: "Originally, I already knew about Yuan Jialiang's transfer of the corpse's bones, so I thought, under the pretense of asking him to meet, I would take this opportunity to solve this trouble." "Because I know that there is a hermit in the ancient temple building, named Zhou Zheng, who is also an outsider, and he usually goes out regularly." "So you took advantage of this gap and invited Yuan Jialiang to this building to discuss matters?" Gu Chen asked. "Yes." Zhao Junbo did not deny it, and confessed honestly: "I have no choice but to invite Yuan Jialiang to this building to discuss matters, because I want to divert your police's attention and make your police mistakenly think that Yuan Jialiang's death is related to Zhou Zheng, a hermit." "After all, if Yuan Jialiang died in Zhou Zheng's bedroom, then Zhou Zheng would obviously not be able to explain clearly." "But I remember that Zhou Zheng locked the door when he went out, but you..." Thinking of this, Lu Weiwei felt something was wrong. But Zhao Junbo admitted generously: "It's nothing? Because I have some friendship with this Zhou Zheng. Once Zhou Zheng invited me to his residence, but because he came to the mountain, Zhou Zheng lost his key." "While I was worrying about this matter, Zhou Zheng found a spare key in a corner of the house to open the door." "At first, I thought that this guy would change the lock because of this, but he didn't. It wasn't until I accidentally picked up a bunch of keys in the grass on a sloping field when I went down the mountain, that I realized it belonged to Zhou Zheng." "But I had already gone down the mountain at that time, so I thought about finding time to return it to him another day." "But after going back and forth, I gradually forgot this point, until I received a call from Yuan Jialiang, and later, Yuan Jialiang secretly transferred the remains of the corpse on the mountain." "I thought, maybe Zhou Zheng's residence can be used to solve Yuan Jialiang's trouble." "So I asked Yuan Jialiang to go up the mountain while Zhou Zheng was out, and opened the door with the key I picked up." "That is, in Zhou Zheng's residence, I used Zhou Zheng's tableware to poison Yuan Jialiang's drinking water." Sighing heavily, Zhao Junbo looked at Gu Chen weakly, and then said: "I think your police are clear about the following things, and you should be able to detect that the deceased Yuan Jialiang died of poisoning." "That's right, we did detect this point." Officer Wang said. Zhao Junbo nodded silently: "So, Yuan Jialiang died like this. I even wiped out all traces of me at the scene." "Because from the very beginning, I paid special attention to my traces. I originally thought that after Yuan Jialiang was disposed of, I would quietly transfer Yuan Jialiang's body." "It's a coincidence that when I was about to transfer the corpse, I noticed some movement down the mountain. Only then did I realize that it was Zhou Zheng who came back early." "But at the same time, there are a group of strangers around Zhou Zheng, especially you, Gu Chen. You were brilliant at the poetry conference at the Blueberry Picking Festival in Wangchao Town. I also noticed you at the time, so I know your truth. identity." "Because, in order to avoid being discovered, I had no choice but to escape temporarily, which is why you found Yuan Jialiang's body in Zhou Zheng's bedroom." "So that's the case?" Listening to Zhao Junbo's narration, Lu Weiwei was also dumbfounded and said, "So, you were at the scene of the discovery?" "That's right." Zhao Junbo lowered his head, and said in frustration at the moment: "If I acted faster, maybe I wouldn't be discovered." "Thousands of calculations have been made, but Zhou Zhenghui will come back early." "And not only that, Zhou Zheng brought you back together, which made me a little bit at a loss at the time. I could only give up transferring the corpse and quietly hid in a corner of the mountain forest by myself." "Just watched you enter the room and found the body." "Then how did you get down the mountain?" Gu Chen was also very curious, as he didn't seem to have seen any trace of Zhao Junbo on the mountain road. But Zhao Junbo said with a light smile: "It's very simple. There are several mountain roads. I'm not on the main road, so I need to take some detours, but they are more secretive." "I take the path, so I won't meet you, that's how I left." With two heavy sighs, Zhao Junbo also choked up, and said helplessly: "But I never expected that Yuan Jialiang would save me a hand. He was on the side of the coffin, and he also moved the location of the buried corpse, leaving some clues." Looking up at Gu Chen, Zhao Junbo said unwillingly, "I didn't expect that you would use this ghost head pattern to quickly find the "Ghost King" comic." "Then I used the Ghost King manga to gradually find my godfather Zhao Changlin, and even went to Haitian Orphanage to investigate me." Taking a breath, Zhao Junbo said in disbelief, "When I was interrogated by you, I was really frightened." "After all, it's not difficult for me to see from your investigations at the Haitian Welfare Institute that you have already begun to doubt me." "It's just that I didn't expect that your progress would be so fast? In a short period of time, you locked the suspect target on me." "If I hadn't been scared, I wouldn't have fallen into your trap at all." "Hehe." Hearing what Zhao Junbo said, Police Officer Wang couldn't help laughing, and said helplessly, "Zhao Junbo, Zhao Junbo, do you know why you were arrested? It's because you are too smart." Glancing back at Gu Chen, Police Officer Wang said again: "Of course, the key is our Gu Chen, he insisted on going to Haitian Orphanage." "It was this trip to the Haitian Welfare Institute that allowed us to meet the person in charge, Dean Liu Shufen." "In the communication with Dean Liu Shufen, I discovered a big problem, that is, you Zhao Junbo. You have been adopted twice, but you were abandoned twice." "This question, in normal times, might make people curious, but you have some important connection with Zhao Xiaobin's disappearance. You were even the only person who had conflicts with Zhao Xiaobin before he disappeared." "In addition, Dean Liu Shufen helped us analyze your character like a cocoon, which made us realize that you are actually an extremely dangerous person." "Especially when we heard that you were abandoned by adoptive families twice when you were less than 10 years old, we were stunned." "Yes." As soon as Police Officer Wang finished speaking, Lu Weiwei couldn't help but echoed: "The most important thing is that when we heard that you broke the elder brother of the second adoptive family with boiling water in a hot pot, I couldn't believe it. This is something that a child under 10 years old would do. This is cruel." "Furthermore, based on this point, Dean Liu Shufen gave us an analysis of the changes after you were abandoned by the second adoptive family. This made us feel even more that Zhao Xiaobin's disappearance may have something to do with you." With a heavy sigh, Lu Weiwei also slowly said: "Sure enough, later we found Xiao Mengqi, his father, classmates, and ex-boyfriend through the ghost king manga." "After communicating with them, and investigating the cause of Yuan Jialiang's death, I discovered that there are actually some special connections between you people." "Especially those 15 years ago, one after another of strange incidents happened in Wangchao Town, seemingly unrelated, but in fact there are traces to be found." "Because all the incidents are related to you, Zhao Junbo, and you are the very unstable factor that Dean Liu Shufen said." "That's why we concluded that the murderer may be you." "That's right." As soon as Lu Weiwei finished speaking, Yuan Shasha couldn't help but interjected: "We were not sure before, but now, it seems that everything has been settled. What you have done yourself, so you have ghosts in your heart." "So after we conspired with your godfather Zhao Changlin, you were decisively recruited. We first let your godfather show his flaws and convinced you that what your godfather said in the follow-up is the truth, so we tricked you to the blueberry base , let you reveal your true colors." "Hehe." Hearing this, Zhao Junbo couldn't help laughing dryly, and said helplessly: "If I didn't come to the scene tonight, would it be difficult for you to find a flaw?" "That's not the case. We can use other means, but relatively speaking, this trick will be more convenient to lure the snake out of the hole." Gu Chen also told the truth. After all, criminals have a certain curiosity. Especially when someone says that there are witnesses, it is tantamount to declaring that his crime will be confirmed. Therefore, most criminal suspects will not calmly make some extreme and stupid behaviors. Gu Chen also took advantage of this point, and tried and tested many cases with success. Of course, including this time, letting Zhao Junbo throw himself into the trap, this has obviously achieved Gu Chen's expected goal. At this moment, Zhao Junbo was a little desperate, shaking his head and sighing in pain: "It's really unlucky for me to meet you." "Zhao Junbo." Police officer Wang stared at Zhao Junbo in front of him, and said in a bad mood: "You have done all kinds of bad things, but you have enjoyed 15 years of good fortune, and everyone said that evil will be rewarded with evil. It's not that the time has not come. " "I think you are a scumbag, you should have been caught a long time ago. People are doing the things you do, and the sky is watching. Do you think you are going to hide?" "Don't you know that there is a saying? You can hide from the first day of junior high school, but you can't hide from the fifteenth day." "That's right." Hearing this, Lu Weiwei said unhappily, "And people like you not only escaped the first and fifteenth grades of junior high school, but also escaped for 15 years." "For a scum like you, 15 years is simply an insult to justice, so now is also the time for you to really accept the legal trial, get up for me." Also seeing Zhao Junbo at this moment, still lying on the side of the slope with a leisurely look, Lu Weiwei can't wait to go up and give him a kick. In order for him to confess his crimes, Comrade Wang even sacrificed a cigarette he was reluctant to smoke. So under the pull of several people, Zhao Junbo was led up by the crowd and started to walk towards the entrance of the blueberry base. At the same time, directors Xu Feng and Zhang Wenxia were already driving a police car and parked on the side of the road. After they escorted Zhao Junbo into the car, they temporarily returned to the Wangchao Town Police Station. ... ... 1:15 am. When two police cars drove into the compound of Wangchao Town Police Station, Zhao Changlin, who had been waiting at the door for a long time, now stood under the streetlight, looking extremely haggard. Zhao Changlin was stunned when he saw his adopted son Zhao Junbo being taken out of the police car by everyone. After getting off the car, Zhao Junbo has already discovered his godfather Zhao Changlin. But at this moment, Zhao Junbo didn't even dare to look up. "Let's go." Lu Weiwei yelled fiercely, and pushed Zhao Junbo forward with his hands clasped behind his back. Zhao Junbo was somewhat repelled, he didn't dare to pass by his godfather Zhao Changlin. However, under the push and push of Police Officer Wang and Lu Weiwei, Zhao Junbo reluctantly lowered his head and walked quickly to the side. "stop!" Just when Zhao Junbo was about to pass by his godfather Zhao Changlin, Zhao Changlin, who had been standing at the door of the hall at first, suddenly stopped Zhao Junbo. Zhao Junbo's heart skipped a beat, but he still didn't dare to look directly at Zhao Changlin. At this time, Police Officer Wang and Lu Weiwei also knew that Zhao Changlin wanted to communicate with Zhao Junbo, so out of human nature, they did not rush to take Zhao Junbo to the police station, but detained Zhao Junbo on the spot. At this moment, Zhao Junbo felt that he was dead. Seeing his godfather Zhao Changlin walking towards him step by step, Zhao Junbo panicked completely. "Raise your head up." Zhao Changlin who was facing him said coldly. But even so, Zhao Junbo was already in a panic at the moment, he didn't dare to look up, and he didn't dare to look at his godfather. However, in the next second, Zhao Changlin, who was weak, yelled at Zhao Changlin in front of him in a filial tone, and roared almost like a lion's roar: "Raise your head for me." Maybe it was the old man who was taken aback by the lion's roar. This godfather who never lost his temper with him is now a stranger. Zhao Junbo, with a guilty conscience, could only slowly raise his head with a mechanical disjointed movement. But at this time, Zhao Changlin saw his head getting closer, fixed his bloodshot eyes on Zhao Junbo in front of him with the position almost touching the tip of his nose, but his tone became cold again. "Your brother Zhao Xiaobin, did you kill him?" Zhao Changlin asked. Zhao Junbo was scared out of his wits at this moment, he just raised his head slightly, but he didn't dare to speak. But at this moment, Zhao Changlin turned his eyes closer. At this moment, the breathing of both sides seems to be able to perceive each other. "I'll ask you again, your brother Zhao Xiaobin, did you kill him? Did you?" This time, the old man Zhao Changlin asked again with almost resolute eyes. Zhao Junbo, who was already trembling all over, could no longer bear the pressure at this moment, so he could only nod silently, and passively admitted: "Yes... yes!" "Snapped!" Zhao Changlin slapped Zhao Junbo on the face, and asked again: "Is it?" "Yes... yes." Faced with the old man's questioning, Zhao Junbo admitted again. "Snapped!" Another slap on Zhao Junbo's face, the old man continued to ask in the same tone: "Is it really? Is it?" Zhao Junbo, whose cheeks were already a little bloated, was out of breath at the moment, but when faced with the kind of terrifying eyes that Zhao Changlin had never seen before, Zhao Junbo nodded again and admitted: "Yes, I killed it." "Snapped!" As soon as the words fell, the old man Zhao Changlin slapped Zhao Junbo on the face again. But this time, the old man almost used all his strength. At this time, Zhao Junbo's left cheek was also swollen. Seeing this, Gu Chen hurriedly stepped forward to stop him and said, "Boss Zhao, calm down first." "Officer Gu, don't worry about it. If I don't kill this bastard today, my surname will not be Zhao. I will kill you bastard, you bastard." ... bookmark
