Chapter 165: Good Heavens, Both Suspects Have Sin Points!

“Come on, talk to me.”

“Why do you think I’m here to arrest you?”

“And turning yourself in so quickly…”

In a park not far from Chen Jianxun’s workplace, Su Xuan began questioning Chen Jianxun.

He had originally planned to bring Chen Jianxun to the police station for a thorough investigation. However, he didn’t expect Chen Jianxun to immediately express his intention to surrender.

This statement left Su Xuan perplexed.

As a result, instead of immediately taking Chen Jianxun into custody, he decided to talk things over first.

But what he didn’t anticipate was that after he asked those questions, Chen Jianxun suddenly reached out and grabbed his own head.

His face contorted in pain, and his eyes were filled with agony.

“I accidentally killed someone, aren’t you here to arrest me?”

“I’ve been thinking all along when you guys would come to apprehend me since he died…”

“Now that you’re here, you must already know what I’ve done, right?”

“Just take me away like this!”

“I can’t bear it any longer…”

Su Xuan watched as Chen Jianxun’s expression twisted, and his own face turned serious.

He had a feeling that his earlier speculations were about to be turned upside down.

However…

There was no denying that Chen Jianxun carried a sense of guilt.

That much was beyond question.

After all, when Su Xuan got closer to Chen Jianxun, the system had already cheerfully chimed in. So, what more was there to say? Let’s head to the police station first. Su Xuan turned and led Chen Jianxun to the police station.

Once inside the interrogation room, Su Xuan finally understood why Chen Jianxun had given up struggling and even willingly surrendered upon seeing him.

“I didn’t want to kill him.”

Inside the interrogation room, Chen Jianxun reached out, clutching his head tightly, his face contorted with worry.

“I just wanted to teach him a lesson…”

“All these years, I’ve been through so much in the orphanage. Finally, when I found someone I liked, he was taken away by someone else!”

“The one who stole the person I liked was my best friend!”

“You might not know this, but I was the one who first met Zheng Qin in college…”

“At that time, I told my friend that I liked Zheng Qin and asked him for help… I never expected him to get involved with her himself…”

“Even so, I wasn’t very angry because he’s my brother!”

“All these years, I’ve relied on this brother to bring me back to the world…”

As Chen Jianxun spoke, he continued to shake his head frantically, from Su Xuan’s perspective, he looked like a madman.

However, his words didn’t stop.

“But who could have imagined that I wasn’t supposed to be the one suffering all this pain?”

“He stole my life!”

“Stealing my life wasn’t enough for him, he had to steal my girlfriend too… Shouldn’t I have taught him a lesson?”

“I just wanted to teach him a lesson. In my calculations, he was never supposed to die!”

“But in the end, he did…”

“This is my fault, this is my sin… You can arrest me, I’m willing to pay for his life!”

Chen Jianxun spoke, lowering his head, looking as if he had accepted his fate.

However, for some reason…

Su Xuan couldn’t help but feel that something was still not quite right.

He glanced at Chen Jianxun’s testimony, then abruptly stood up and walked out of the interrogation room, leaving Chen Jianxun staring after him.

Outside, Officer Zhou Qiang, who had heard that Su Xuan had brought the suspect back, approached immediately.

“Old Su!”

“I heard you brought the suspect back?”

“What’s the situation now? Did he confess?”

It wasn’t that Zhou Qiang wanted to ask this. It was the other suspect he planned to question, who wasn’t cooperating at all. In fact, he seemed to think that this had nothing to do with him and was refusing to cooperate.

In the end, Zhou Qiang had to present his police officer’s badge and request cooperation to bring the suspect back with him. However, even with that, he could only detain the suspect for 48 hours. If they couldn’t find any evidence linking the suspect to the murder within those 48 hours, they’d have to release him.

“He did confess,” Su Xuan admitted, not hiding any details. He just found it frustrating, adding, “But he confessed too quickly…”

Although Su Xuan didn’t elaborate further, Zhou Qiang understood his point. Sometimes, a swift confession could be a crucial factor in a case.

“At least your guy confessed; mine hasn’t said a word,” Zhou Qiang replied, with a hint of envy. “I’d trade places with you in a heartbeat.”

“Maybe we should do this… You go to my suspect, question him, and see if he’ll open up,” Su Xuan suggested. “I’ll check on yours.”

If it weren’t for Zhou Qiang’s strong suspicion that his suspect was involved, he wouldn’t have found himself in this awkward situation. However, after this conversation, Zhou Qiang felt a sense of relief.

Even with strong suspicions, without the suspect’s cooperation, uncovering the truth would be challenging.

“Agreed!” Su Xuan was also curious about why Zhou Qiang was so certain about his suspect’s involvement. Since Zhou Qiang had already made the offer, how could he refuse?

So, they swapped suspects on the spot. Zhou Qiang went to question Chen Jianxun, and that’s when he found out why Su Xuan had such a grim expression earlier. It turned out that Chen Jianxun had some serious mental issues. Who knew if what he confessed was true or not?

As for Su Xuan…

Well, that was a different story. Upon seeing Su Xuan, the suspect merely smirked and mocked why there was a change in interrogators. After that, he didn’t say a word. Su Xuan and the suspect sat in the interrogation room, exchanging intense stares, but little else transpired.

Su Xuan:…

Wait, this guy…

His sin level is also this high!?

Su Xuan stared at Chuanzi, whose face was far from ordinary now and appeared more like someone involved in the underworld. He sighed in relief. “You’re called Chuanzi, right?” Su Xuan asked. “You worked with Zhou Hao for several years, almost from the day he joined the company.”

“Last month, due to one of his mistakes, you missed out on a bonus,” Su Xuan continued. “In the end, it caused you to break up with your fiancee.”

“Not long after that, Zhou Hao had an early onset of his illness due to overdosing on medication,” Su Xuan said. “On the day he had the episode, he didn’t have any medication with him. It was precisely because of this that he collided with the glass and died.”

Since the other person didn’t speak, Su Xuan could continue on his own.

“So, Chuanzi, tell me, do you hold a grudge against him?” Su Xuan raised a teacup, took a sip, but kept his gaze on Chuanzi.

“You hated him for preventing you from getting the bonus,” he continued. “As someone who had been around him for so many years, you also knew the probability of his illness and understood his routine, going out with his girlfriend every week.”

“You took advantage of this timeframe to create a perfect alibi for yourself.”

“But in reality, everything that happened to him was within your expectations.” “Chuanzi, did you want to kill Zhou Hao?” Bang!

As Su Xuan’s words fell, Chuanzi, who had appeared calm until now, gritted his teeth.. “Don’t you dare accuse me! I had no reason to kill him!?”
