Gene Fusion System: Crime Hunter

This kind of news.

left Luo Fei a bit surprised.

"Ms. Huang, besides having your hosts do normal streams, your streaming company actually has other...business?"

At that moment.

Luo Fei was dumbfounded, unable to hide his shock.

Huang Feifei, on the other hand, explained, a bit embarrassed.

"Mr. Luo, you can rest assured about this. Our streaming company would never do that kind of thing. This was purely Ms. Tao running her own personal business."

After Huang Feifei’s explanation.

Luo Fei finally understood.

Tao Aiyuan’s family situation was very bad.

Her mother was seriously ill and bedridden, and her father stayed home to look after her younger brother.

And the younger brother had only just started primary school.

To help support the family.

It had always been Tao Aiyuan working outside alone, sending living expenses home.

At the same time, she still had to cover her own daily expenses.

So with no other way out, she had resorted to this crooked path.

After hearing this.

Luo Fei nodded repeatedly.

"Ms. Huang, thank you for providing us with this lead."

But before he finished speaking.

Ji Bing had already cuffed the man in front of her, Song Chenghua.

"Wait, officer, why are you arresting me?"

Right then.

Song Chenghua was genuinely stunned.

He looked utterly shocked.

He could hardly believe he was actually being taken in.

Luo Fei, however, said sternly,

"Isn’t the reason perfectly logical and obvious?"

"When Ms. Tao died, she had just had intercourse with someone. And she had feelings for you. So it’s entirely possible you did this."

Luo Fei spoke with a straight face.

This left Song Chenghua almost at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

"No, officer, this time you really have the wrong guy. I truly didn’t do anything out of line, and I would never dare break the law."

"On the contrary, that water-delivery guy, Old Zhang—he was always glued to Ms. Tao. The two of them even had a fight once. Someone wanted Ms. Tao to sleep with him, but she was on her period then, it was inconvenient, so she turned him down. They ended up grappling with each other. Back then even the officers from the local station came over."

As soon as Song Chenghua said this.

Ji Bing was a bit taken aback.

"But Mr. Song, if this case has nothing to do with you, then why do you remember all these seemingly trivial, irrelevant details so clearly?"

As she spoke, Ji Bing sounded somewhat doubtful.

Song Chenghua could only explain patiently.

"Ms. Ji, I know this might sound a bit far-fetched. But I really was investigated at the time. They needed to look into and confirm whether anyone else had engaged in paid relations with Ms. Tao."

Here, Song Chenghua trailed off a little.

Ji Bing became more curious.

"That doesn’t add up, Song Chenghua. Based on what you just said, shouldn’t the police have taken you in back then? But it seems they didn’t?"

Seeing her looking at him, puzzled and a little surprised.

Song Chenghua had to explain, awkward and a bit ashamed.

"Officer Ji, to be honest, my bankbook and wallet were never on me. On the day of the incident, my money was being kept by the landlady. So naturally, they didn’t catch anything on me."

His patient explanation.

made Ji Bing suddenly realize.

"So that’s how it was. No wonder, Mr. Song, you could sound so righteous and full of conviction. Turns out the police never caught any leverage on you."

Luo Fei said this while shaking his head, a bit speechless.

Song Chenghua hurried to explain, still a little embarrassed.

"Officer, I admit I did think about getting involved with Ms. Tao. But I’m already married. My wife even stormed over once, trying to catch the mistress. Plus my kid is about to go to college. So of course I wouldn’t dare do anything too out of line."

"But that water guy, Old Zhang...Officer, you have no idea how over the line he was."

But before Song Chenghua could finish.

A figure appeared at the doorway.

"Song Chenghua, don’t you dare spew bullshit about me there!"

They turned at the voice.

The newcomer was none other than a burly, thickset middle-aged man.

He had a full beard and a muscular build; one look and you could tell he hauled water jugs for a living.

"Officer, I’m Zhang Honglei. I am absolutely not the kind of person he’s talking about. I can swear to heaven on that—I guarantee it one hundred percent."

Seeing that the person involved had shown up.

Luo Fei also spoke.

"You two, don’t be in a rush to argue yet. The police deal in evidence. Not to mention, this room is a mess, and the smells on your bodies are all mixed together in here."

"So I’ll run tests on the fluid inside the victim’s body. Once we confirm the DNA, then we’ll draw our conclusions."

As he said this,

his tone was deadly serious.

Next to him, Song Chenghua was stunned.

"Officer, come on, you’re still suspecting me?"

"Shut up."

Luo Fei didn’t spell it out directly.

But his look said everything.

Which made Song Chenghua no longer dare say another word.

"Huang Feifei?"

Almost at the same time.

Luo Fei called out.

This made Huang Feifei jolt all over.

"Mr. Luo, what do you need?"

She looked a bit expectant,

her face still showing a trace of unease.

Luo Fei took a deep breath and asked,

"Notify Ms. Tao’s family. And I also need to conduct a thorough canvass of all the neighbors in this building, so I hope the landlady will actively cooperate."

Hearing his intent.

Huang Feifei quickly nodded in agreement.

The landlady beside them was even more frightened into silence.

"Officer, don’t worry. We’ll do everything we can to assist you in investigating what happened to Ms. Tao."
