Chapter 1194 - 591: Willing to Admit? No Evidence for the Dead
Luo Fei simply uttered one sentence, leaving the two speechless almost instantaneously.
They couldn’t help but admit.
Indeed, they themselves had issues.
It’s just that deep down, they refused to acknowledge them.
Nor would they admit their own faults.
Nevertheless, Luo Fei came here to investigate the case, not to correct mistakes.
So he also sat back down on the sofa at this moment.
In a serious tone.
"If you know any clues, it would be best to inform me promptly. As long as it’s related to your daughter. Even the slightest hint would help."
"It also pertains to whether, when I finally submit the report, I describe you as actively cooperating with the investigation or as deliberately evading responsibility. Or even, as making light of serious matters and refusing to cooperate."
Seeing Luo Fei being earnest.
His tone offered no room for negotiation.
The duo reluctantly took a deep breath.
Feeling somewhat embarrassed, they said.
"Mr. Luo, to be honest, we genuinely don’t understand why our daughter was murdered."
"All we know is that she worked hard at the company and later gained Mr. Shen’s favor. Beyond that, we truly know nothing."
The couple at this point broke into a cold sweat.
And they pulled out some photos from when their daughter was working to show Luo Fei.
Through their explanation.
Luo Fei then understood.
Actually, their daughter hadn’t prepared to marry Mr. Shen.
She was merely in a relationship with him.
But nothing more.
Plus, she often brought back gifts from Mr. Shen for the elderly couple.
So they didn’t give it much thought, or rather, pretended ignorance.
"Mr. Luo, so if she was murdered, it must be because she offended Mr. Shen."
"No question, she must have committed some unforgivable sin, which infuriated Mr. Shen, leading to such a tragedy."
Watching them being earnest.
Their faces filled with righteous indignation.
Luo Fei had to take a deep breath.
Patiently explaining.
"My dear sirs, perhaps you are unaware, but every word I’m about to say is based on real events. All closely connected to your daughter. So, if possible, I hope you can remain calm and listen to me quietly."
Upon hearing Luo Fei speak like this.
The couple instantly focused their attention.
However, as Luo Fei proceeded to outline the events.
The couple immediately realized what had transpired.
This left them utterly disoriented.
Staring blankly at the floor, it took them a while to recover.
"So, are you saying our daughter faced catastrophe because she wronged Mr. Shen?"
"This girl is so foolish, how could she be so stupid! Didn’t she know to hold back a bit, even if just to stop when things looked good?"
Seeing their bewilderment.
Their emotions were mixed.
Clearly blaming their daughter for being immature and greedy, leading to such a situation.
Luo Fei stated seriously.
"Dear sirs, I understand that discussing this might make you uncomfortable. However, I hope you can remain calm and try to accept this whole situation."
"The priority now is to find the true culprit who killed your daughter."
Though Luo Fei reminded them, speaking in a calm and composed tone.
The two elderly couldn’t stop hitting their thighs.
"No, officer. I just don’t understand. At this stage of the case, isn’t everything quite evident?"
"Exactly, since the body was found in a grave, it’s highly possible Mr. Shen did this. Why not just arrest him?"
But their voices were trembling now, their weathered faces filled with disbelief.
Luo Fei shook his head saying.
"Dear sirs, our police cannot arrest anyone based solely on this."
"Because at that time, the people responsible for moving the coffin haven’t been found yet. But according to Shen Yueling’s testimony, her father wasn’t at the scene then, and the second coffin was placed in the tomb after the funeral. So it’s also possible someone deliberately framed him."
Although Luo Fei was serious, analyzing the situation.
The elderly wouldn’t relent.
"Officer, your words sound reasonable at first, but they don’t hold up to scrutiny."
"Indeed, officer, not to mention anything else. If someone came near this grave, reopened it, and placed a second coffin underneath, how could the cemetery manager not know? After all, what’s involved here can’t be accomplished in just a few days. It requires significant time."
Listening to their analysis, Luo Fei nodded saying.
"True, your points are valid. Hence, we cannot rule out the possibility that someone might have deliberately dug a tunnel beneath the cemetery to transport the coffin, aiming for secrecy."
Luo Fei’s analysis made the couple even more convinced.
"Mr. Luo, Mr. Shen knows a lot about real estate and has previously undertaken many projects. Surely, he was involved in this incident."
"Indeed. In any event, we stand firmly on the side of law and justice."
"Also, officers, please thoroughly investigate. Don’t let the criminals escape."
...
After a while.
With some evidence and clues collected.
Luo Fei and his team left the elderly couple’s home.
Just after leaving the room.
Su Jianfan couldn’t help but shake his head.
