Chapter 12: Using a Borrowed Knife to Kill
Chapter 12: Using a Borrowed Knife to Kill
At that moment, the deaf old lady was also hiding in her room, trembling silently.
She was a shrewd and experienced woman; she didn't believe it was a coincidence, much less an accident.
This old man, Mo, had only been back for a day when he killed Director Wang's son in the afternoon, and then killed Banggeng the following afternoon.
She didn't know how Lao Mo had done it. But the unknown is what's most terrifying.
Chen Yao was handed over to human traffickers by Jia Zhangshi at her own request. If Lao Mo finds out, will he let her go?
How did this man, who's never said a word, become so terrifying?
She had just witnessed Bang Geng's death; it was horrific. Half of his neck had been severed, and his head had almost fallen off.
Blood was everywhere, staining two square meters of floor red.
too frightening.
If she had known the consequences would be so terrible, she would never have listened to Yi Zhonghai's instigation and participated in this matter.
Aside from accommodating Yi Zhonghai and asking him to support her in her old age, she received no benefit whatsoever from all the things she did.
How could she have been so blinded by greed to go to such lengths to do this?
But now, it's all too late. Regret is futile.
People have already started dying.
Old Mo is back in force; this is a fight to the death.
Whether they tell Old Mo where his daughter is or not, this matter is unlikely to be easily resolved.
Even she didn't know where Chen Yao had been sold to.
If this were said out loud, the consequences could be even more serious.
So she was really scared, not knowing when it would be her turn.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door.
"Knock knock knock, knock knock knock..."
"Grandma, it's me, Yi Zhonghai."
Upon hearing this voice, the old lady immediately sat up straighter, forcibly suppressing her inner fear.
"Come in!"
Yi Zhonghai then led Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui inside.
Yi Zhonghai glanced outside before closing the door.
The three of them each took a stool and sat down in front of the deaf old lady, looking quite like filial sons and grandsons.
"Grandma, Sha Zhu and Jia Zhangshi have been taken away. They're dead. I'm a little panicked."
The deaf old woman thought to herself, "Are you the only one panicking? I'm even more panicked."
However, these people regard her, their ancestor, as their pillar of support, so she cannot panic.
"Xiao Yi, what do you think the chances are of Lao Mo showing up this time?"
Yi Zhonghai thought for a moment and said, "He didn't actually kill anyone, but someone did die in his house. I estimate he'll be locked up for at least a month or two."
The deaf old lady breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.
"Very good. Xiao Yi, I know what you're thinking. Don't worry, things aren't clear yet. Let's wait until that little beast comes out before we talk about anything else! What you need to do now is get Sha Zhu and Jia Zhangshi out as soon as possible."
The deaf old lady was a little worried that Jia Zhangshi couldn't hold on inside and had to be brought out.
"Alright! I'll go to the Red Star Institute tomorrow and try to get them released."
The deaf old woman nodded and said, "Go and bail them out first, then go see Director Wang and tell him what happened in the hospital. The key point is to tell her that Banggeng was killed by Lao Mo, and see how she reacts. Her son was also killed by Lao Mo, so she won't stand idly by."
After the deaf old woman finished speaking, a cunning smile appeared on her face.
The three old men nodded in agreement. Indeed, experience counts. This tactic of using someone else to do the dirty work was brilliant!
At the Hongxing Police Station, Chen Qingshan placed the two case files together and frowned deeply.
That's right, the other file is the file of Director Wang's son.
These two cases have too many similarities.
Both men died from injuries sustained after falling and being fatally wounded by a sharp weapon. Old Mo was present at both crime scenes.
The most suspicious point is that after the incident, Lao Mo said something that sounded like he was about to explode.
This gave Chen Qingshan a premonition that both of them were killed by Lao Mo. Unfortunately, he had no evidence.
Let alone an experienced police officer, anyone would assume that Lao Mo killed him in this situation.
Unfortunately, he had no evidence.
Although Chen Qingshan felt guilty, he couldn't shake the feeling from his heart.
No, we still need to interrogate Old Mo.
In the interrogation room, Old Mo was already sitting in the chair of regret.
The person interrogating him was an old acquaintance, Chen Qingshan.
Chen Qingshan: "Chen Jinmo, do you know why I brought you here today?"
Old Mo: "I know. Because someone died in my house."
Chen Qingshan: "There are many testimonies in the hospital, all saying that you killed them. What do you have to say?"
Old Mo cried out that he was innocent, "Innocent! Your Honor! I was having dinner at home when they came up with knives, kicked down my door, and tried to rush in and kill me."
As a result, he tripped over the threshold and stabbed himself to death. How can you blame me for that?
Captain Chen, do you know how scared I was? Two strong men kicked open your door, came in with knives, and tried to kill you. Can you imagine how helpless I felt?
"I was really terrified. I demand they pay me compensation for emotional distress. They also have to compensate me for making my house dirty."
It's the same old excuse again.
Chen Qingshan and the two policemen next to him exchanged a glance.
Chen Qingshan: "Chen Jinmo, two murders have occurred today, and you were at the scene of both. Moreover, you said the same things at both scenes. The common thread in both murders points to you."
If you didn't do it, could you please not say things like that again if something similar happens in the future? It's misunderstood.
Both police officers glanced at Chen Qingshan, wondering why he would ask such a question. Something about the question felt off; how could something like this possibly happen again?
Old Mo revealed a cold smile and said indifferently, "No, those beasts in the yard sold my daughter and refuse to tell me where she is."
Only under those circumstances would it be most likely that I would find out my daughter's whereabouts, so if a similar situation arises again, I will still ask.
"you."
Chen Qingshan stood up and stared intently at Lao Mo.
"Old Mo, based on what you just said, can I assume that something similar will happen again in the future?"
If Lao Mo dares to say it, he's certain that he committed these crimes. Even without evidence, he did it.
However, Old Mo coldly smiled and said, "Captain Chen, I'm not Zhuge Liang. How would I know what will happen in the future? How am I supposed to answer you with a question like that?"
Something's not right; the more I investigate, the more suspicious it seems.
At this moment, Chen Qingshan became even more suspicious.
Old Mo's face clearly showed that he was the one who killed the man, but he just wouldn't admit it.
"Alright. That concludes today's interrogation. Xiao Chen and Xiao Zhang, lock them up for now, we'll talk about it tomorrow."
"Yes."
The two police officers readily agreed.
