Chapter 224 - 224 217 The years and crimes of the brute Qin Qi Chapter 224: 217: The years and crimes of the brute, Qin Qi (Second update) Chapter 224: 217: The years and crimes of the brute, Qin Qi (Second update) “Which colleague?”

“Yan Gaoxiang.”

OK.

The next case.

Lin Yaoping continued to ask methodically, “Are you aware of the incident at Junlin Equestrian Club? How much do you know?”

Qin Qi answered meticulously, “I’ve seen the news, and you’ve investigated my brother at our home.”

“On the thirteenth of last month, Junlin Equestrian Club held an event for its premium members, during which one female victim managed to escape. The victim pointed out that she stabbed the assailant with a piece of glass in his left abdomen.”

The club cleaned up the scene thoroughly, not leaving any of the perpetrator’s blood. Moreover, all premium members participated in that event using virtual codenames.

“On the night of the incident, Qin Ke was captured entering and exiting Junlin Equestrian Club. Since he had no wounds on his body, he could be ruled out as the perpetrator,” Lin Yaoping posed the question, “Where were you that night, from eight to midnight?”

“Let me think,” Qin Qi pondered for a long while, “I was at a social engagement.”

“Who else was present?”

“Several of my colleagues were there.”

Lin Yaoping leaned forward, his gaze suddenly intense, “You’re lying. You didn’t go night fishing at Shili Depot, nor did you go out with colleagues. On the night of the twentieth at Qin Family’s home, it was you who enticed Shen Ru into committing murder, and it was you who were caught on camera at Junlin Club on the night of the thirteenth.” Lin Yaoping pushed the two indistinguishable photos back in front of Qin Qi, “You and your brother have been playing a game, a game of swapping identities.”

Qin Qi denied, “You’re slandering me.” He frowned, remaining composed, “Do you have evidence? This is slander.”

Of course, Lin Yaoping was not guessing without reason, “Just now, our colleague conducted a living body examination on you, and you happen to have a wound on your left abdomen. Based on the healing of the scar, the time of injury coincides with around the Junlin incident.”

Qin Qi defended, “That was when I accidentally broke an ashtray at night and hurt myself.”

“That was inflicted by a glass shard by the victim in the Junlin case.”

Qin Qi remained resolute, “No, I inflicted it myself.”

His arguments were very clear.

Lin Yaoping wasn’t in a hurry, taking it step by step.

“On the night of the thirteenth, did you go to Junlin Club?”

“No, I was with colleagues at a social engagement.”

“Where were you on the night of the twentieth?”

“I was night fishing at Shili Depot.”

Lin Yaoping raised his voice and hastened his pace, repeating the question, “I’ll ask again, where were you on the night of the twentieth?”

“At Shili Depot fishing at night.” Qin Qi looked directly at the detective across from him, his tone certain, “You can ask my colleague, he can vouch for me.”

Lin Yaoping suddenly smiled.

“Every time you commit a crime under the identity of Qin Ke, Yan Gaoxiang provides you with an alibi.”

Qin Qi opened his mouth to deny it.

Lin Yaoping’s questioning rhythm suddenly became relentlessly intense, “On the night of the twentieth, you sent Qin Ke to Shili Depot to get money from Yan Gaoxiang, telling him the money was from a dubious source and couldn’t be recorded officially, and that he had to go to Shili Depot to collect it himself. After sidelining him, you impersonated him, had an affair with Shen Ru, promised to marry her, and lured her to help you commit murder. You also told Shen Ru that Honeysuckle and Hooked Cymbidium Flower look similar, but the Hooked Cymbidium is poisonous.”

A subtle change crossed Qin Qi’s face, but he quickly regained his composure, “Are you making up stories?” he insisted, “It was me who went to Shili Depot, just to fish at night.”

Lin Yaoping leaned back, his expression relaxed, “Yan Gaoxiang doesn’t tell it that way.”

Qin Qi’s expression suddenly turned to one of shock, “What did he say?!”

While Qin Qi was undergoing the living body examination, Yan Gaoxiang from Huaqi Technology came to the police station to turn himself in.
