by REX-NOVELISTSOn the other side, inside the interrogation room, no matter what Chen Can asked, Chen Xin brushed him off with “I don’t know” and “I’m not sure.” Zhang Shun called Shen Qing and instructed him to have someone keep an eye on Chen Yi for 24 hours, and to investigate all of Chen Yi’s recent activities and phone communication records.
After a while, Zhang Shun walked into the interrogation room with a look of authority. Chen Can proactively gave up the main seat to Zhang Shun. Zhang Shun glanced at the records on the computer, unhurriedly opened his teacup, silently drinking tea, showing no sign of wanting to ask questions.
This state lasted for about twenty minutes. An emotional fluctuation appeared on Chen Xin’s bright and pretty face. She seemed a little impatient, and she glanced at Zhang Shun from time to time, trying to understand Zhang Shun’s intentions.
But Zhang Shun just quietly drank his tea, browsing through the documents in front of him, as if enjoying this moment of peace.
The suspect’s chair in the interrogation room was not comfortable, even a bit cold and stiff. Chen Xin’s small movements became more and more frequent. At this moment, Zhang Shun finally spoke, his voice low and powerful, “Miss Chen’s time is also precious. If you don’t want to provide valuable information, or if you still want to hide something in order to deceive the police, then I advise you not to waste your energy.”
A trace of disdain flashed in Chen Xin’s eyes. “I am not guilty. I have already actively cooperated with your police investigation last time. What do you mean by calling me to the interrogation room today?”
“Aren’t you just casual acquaintances with Yan Haoyu? Then don’t you know that Yan Haoyu almost became your brother-in-law?” Zhang Shun’s words carried a strong sense of oppression. He raised his voice, trying to intimidate Chen Xin.
A flash of gloom flashed in Chen Xin’s eyes, fleeting. “Officer, didn’t they break up in the end? I can’t possibly know who everyone Chen Yi dates is, right?”
“I’m a little curious, how did they break up?” Zhang Shun put down his teacup and looked at Chen Xin intently.
Chen Xin deliberately squinted her eyes, concealing her emotions. Her thin lips pursed into an arc of mockery. “Chen Yi’s ugly dream of marrying into a wealthy family was shattered, it’s not her turn to question you.”
“What is the real reason for your bad relationship with your sister? Chen Xin, do I need to make it any clearer?” Zhang Shun slapped the table, the force of which shook the table slightly.
“You don’t know what I’m talking about.” Chen Xin turned her face away, afraid that Zhang Shun would decipher the dead silence in her heart.
Zhang Shun knew that the interrogation had entered a crucial stage, and he had to find a key breakthrough to make Chen Xin open her mouth.
“I am a spectator in their relationship. You see from the bar’s surveillance camera, Yan Haoyu’s attitude towards me is worth considering, he seems to have no good feelings for me, not even as a regular friend?” Zhang Shun said nonchalantly.
Chen Xin bit her lip. “I just have a normal relationship with Chen Yi. If the police suspect that I am related to Yan Haoyu’s death, then show me the evidence. If there is no evidence to prove that I am related to this case, I have no need to explain anything.”
Her tone was firm. Zhang Shun observed her, thinking about Chen Xin’s emotional vulnerabilities.
Zhang Shun looked at Chen Xin’s personal information. He discovered that the cool relationship between Chen Xin and Chen Yi was not only from Yan Haoyu, but that they had been separated in different cities since childhood due to family reasons. After their parents divorced, Chen Xin stayed in Shengshi with her father, and Chen Yi went to Kyoto with her mother, and only returned to Shengshi last year for some unknown reason.
Comparing Chen Yi’s previous elementary school and work units, Chen Xin’s situation had a very small difference. He thought that this was also one of the reasons why Chen Xin didn’t like Chen Yi, and he planned to find a breakthrough from the direction of her original family.
“How about we talk about your situation. Do you still live with your father now?” Zhang Shun’s words made Chen Xin frown involuntarily. “I rent a house outside.”
“I know that my mother remarried a businessman before going to Kyoto. Although the living conditions are not superior, they are better than average.”
A trace of gloom flashed across Chen Xin’s expression. She looked at Zhang Shun. “Officer, what do you want to illustrate by talking about these old things?”
“I am actually a little jealous of Chen Yi. We were twins, but she didn’t have as hard of a life as I did. My father is an alcoholic all year round and is unemployed, so I relied on my beautiful appearance to hang around in the modeling circle when I was seventeen or eighteen. I am not jealous of Chen Yi, I love her.” Zhang Shun’s words were like sharp blades, directly attacking Chen Xin’s heart.
Her flax-colored wavy hair fell lazily over her shoulders. Her slightly raised eyes looked bright and charming, but her eyes were filled with cruel delight. “These are your words, officer, they don’t represent my thoughts. Different people have different fates. People like me, who enter society early, have long seen the existence of classes in society. People at the bottom who want to climb up can only pay a high price.”
“How did I meet Yan Haoyu?” Zhang Shun changed the topic. He knew that the formation of everyone’s values cannot be separated from their growing environment. Every adult will be more or less restricted by some things from their original family. Without experiencing the suffering of others, don’t advise others to be kind.
Chen Xin stiffened. “A friend introduced me.”
“What friend? How did they introduce you?” Zhang Shun grabbed this question and didn’t plan to let go.
“Sisters in the modeling circle said there was a wealthy young master who might have a chance to enter the entertainment industry.” Chen Xin’s expression was a little unnatural.
“Did I meet Yan Haoyu first?” Zhang Shun thought.
Chen Xin curled her lips. Her lower lip was a bit thick, which made her particularly feminine.
“Yan Haoyu didn’t even realize who you and Chen Yi were in the beginning. But that’s not his fault, all men are like that, they only remember my figure, but they have face blindness.” Chen Xin smiled wryly.
“They got together by accident, and it happened that Yan Haoyu liked Chen Yi’s quiet personality, so you think Chen Yi robbed you of the opportunity to marry a rich man?” Zhang Shun asked.
“He thought Chen Yi was you, they were originally a mistake when they first got together. But Chen Yi didn’t know what trick she used, and when you found Yan Haoyu again, Yan Haoyu could already tell who you and Chen Yi were. Not only did he not correct the deviation, but he also planned to make the best of it. It seems that old God will always treat Chen Yi favorably, my mother chose Chen Yi, and Yan Haoyu also chose Chen Yi. She has never been surrounded by people at home to chase debts, nor has she been homeless and wandering in the city at night. The biggest setback in her life is having a disappointing sister like me.” She said and laughed, the thick powder could not hide the slow pleasure of her face twitching and distorting from pain at this moment.
Zhang Shun couldn’t help but feel a little emotional. “Yan Haoyu and Chen Yi broke up as early as a month ago, you should know that. Why did you still pester Yan Haoyu?”
Zhang Shun could clearly feel that after Chen Xin said her love, the questioning became smoother. She no longer deliberately packaged her perfect character, but poured out all the unwillingness in her heart.
Her eyes changed, and she raised the corners of her lips wickedly. “I said, Yan Haoyu has face blindness, as long as I imitate Chen Yi, he won’t be able to tell us apart.”
Zhang Shun noted the characteristic of face blindness. Chen Xin continued, “When Chen Yi got home early the next morning, she saw us together. She is a very proud person, even if Yan Haoyu explained a lot, Chen Yi couldn’t bear it. You thought, that’s when you won, you finally relied on your own strength to make them close the door.” Her eyes became gloomy, and her hands clenched loosely, “But Yan Haoyu really hated her, and abandoned you. Even that night in the bar, as long as he looked at you more, like when you first met, you wouldn’t have chosen to hurt him. You have fantasized countless times about being with him, if there was only Chen Xin, without Chen Yi, how could you hurt Yan Haoyu!”
She was a little hysterical, and her words were full of hatred for Chen Yi and Yan Haoyu.
“What did you do?” Zhang Shun’s voice was as calm as water, without any waves.
Her seemingly bright eyes were filled with sharpness and meanness at this moment. “Go and investigate. Go and investigate what I have done, and by the way, also investigate what Yan Haoyu has done to me.”
“No matter what you have done, whether it is out of momentary impulsiveness or inner unwillingness, but that person is already gone, and all the hatred and love will disappear with him. Only by being frank and honest can we deal with it leniently. The living are already living, and the dead still have to think about their future.” Zhang Shun is not a judge, he doesn’t want to judge the right or wrong of this matter. He thinks he is not qualified and cannot empathize with Chen Xin.
But as a policeman, the responsibility he shoulders makes him willing to lend a helping hand to a young girl who is lost. Even if she is now blinded by a leaf, she will one day be relieved because of his kind words today.
Chen Xin’s eyes were red. “It’s too late. Isn’t Yan Haoyu dead?”
Zhang Shun decided to change his thinking. “I understand the feud between you and Yan Haoyu. How did the other people in the crew offend you?”
A trace of confusion appeared in Chen Xin’s eyes. “You only retaliated against Yan Haoyu.”
Zhang Shun chose to believe her in this sentence. She was not lying.
“Think about it carefully, and now tell me the process of my revenge.” After Zhang Shun finished speaking, he whispered a few words to the recorder beside him, and walked straight to the door. “Think about it carefully, and don’t rush to reply.”
