They tied the black straps together with ropes and then used the gaps in the stone slabs to rearrange their positions. It was like threading the rope through and pulling it out from there.
As he spoke, Lin Yuan demonstrated for Team Leader Zhang. Although the gaps in the stone slabs weren't very large, they were indeed wide enough for a hand to fit through. Following this method, securing it with a rope was certainly a viable option.
In the end, only those individuals had contact with Meng Ruochu. I’ve already instructed the officers to take them to the police station; they should still be somewhat unaware of the situation. This case doesn’t seem to be premeditated; it might have arisen from some dispute between the two parties. As for how it will be judged later, that’s another matter.
Team Leader Zhang looked at Lin Yuan. It could be basically confirmed that they were the criminals, but we still needed some substantial evidence. You’ve already searched Meng Ruochu's home; do you need to go again? They were just there, so there’s no need for another trip.
Lin Yuan shook his head and replied directly, "No need to complicate things. If a man really wanted to reach into those gaps in the stone slabs, he would definitely scrape his skin."
"I noticed that several of them had friction marks on their finger joints and had band-aids on. As long as we search those gaps in the stone slabs, we should be able to find some physical evidence."
"You remember all that?" Team Leader Zhang asked. If it weren’t for the system giving him an extraordinary memory, Lin Yuan wouldn’t have been sure he could recall everything now.
"Well, since we’ve made things so clear, let’s proceed with this." The next steps were still more familiar to him.
Lin Yuan nodded; he probably wouldn’t have any further involvement from here on out. At the same time, the voice of the crime system echoed in his mind. His combat power had increased again. At this rate, if all his values were added to his physical strength, wouldn’t he be able to compete in boxing matches one day?
While Lin Yuan was lost in thought, Team Leader Zhang spoke again. "We’ve almost wrapped up our case here; how about you lend a hand? I know someone in my district who needs some assistance."
Given Team Leader Zhang's line of work, it was likely that his friend also worked at the police station. Lin Yuan certainly didn’t refuse such an offer.
"Let’s wait a couple of days; I’ve rented a place near the police station and might need to move."
"You brat, are you really planning to stay in Haishi from now on?"
"There are more opportunities in big cities," Lin Yuan replied with a smile. Even if he left now, those people wouldn’t let him go quietly. Rather than being passive like that, it was better to stand firmly on the side of the police.
Meanwhile, when Fang Zong and those men were called to the police station, he immediately lay down on the bed and allowed his consciousness to sink into the crime space. A tall soldier stood under the spotlight, staring at him with wide eyes full of intensity.
However, President Fang did not pay him any mind and walked straight to the shelf of criminal case files. The skill of having a photographic memory was not unique to Lin Yuan; he possessed it as well. Just a quick glance at the shelves made him immediately realize that there were indeed fewer cases here, and this time the number was greater than before.
So, could Lin Yuan truly have an influence here? President Fang seemed to be questioning someone, but Lin Yuan was clear about what he was thinking. If they continued to let Lin Yuan operate freely, they would gradually be exposed. It would be better to eliminate this potential threat outright.
Unlike those who had suddenly gained their systems, he and the others might only use these systems to enhance their abilities. But for him, this system had only come into play recently. Back when he was still in the small county town of the Fang family, he had managed to establish a foothold in Haishi. Now, anyone who cooperated with the Fang family could be utilized by President Fang.
As he opened his eyes from the bed, President Fang made a phone call, his voice chillingly cold. He absolutely would not allow anyone to emerge and ruin everything he had built!
For the next two days, Lin Yuan was busy moving items back and forth, hardly having time to deal with the cases at the police station. Occasionally, he would see several fathers coming and going—those were the fathers of Meng Ruochu's family. They also bore some responsibility regarding her situation.
At this point, someone had even exposed another video besides Li Muze's in an attempt to shirk their own responsibility. Although that video was blurry, it clearly captured each of their faces. While the blame might fall on Li Muze, others would not simply be let off the hook.
How should one put it? This could be considered karma.
Lying on the bed in his rented room, Lin Yuan heard Zheng Yun's words. He maintained a calm demeanor on the outside while keeping his hands busy. One must take responsibility for their own actions. By the way, was Bai Qiushui still in Haishi? He had been staying at a hotel for the past couple of days; perhaps it was time for him to travel a bit.
But it might be better not to let him travel just yet; he should return first.
Zheng Yun sensed something off from Lin Yuan's words. It wasn't easy for him to come all the way to Haishi; he should at least enjoy himself—was he trying to chase him away?
That thought crossed her mind.
Before Zheng Yun could ask why, she heard Lin Yuan say, "Captain Zhang informed me about something regarding our district. Do you know?"
A couple of days ago, Captain Zhang had already told him about this matter. However, the jurisdiction of their district was two or three times larger than theirs, with a higher crime rate.
"What do you mean?" Zheng Yun asked for clarification.
"Actually," she explained, "most of our cases here are civil matters; we rarely encounter serious criminal cases. When we do have criminal investigations, they are few and far between."
"But our district is different," she continued. "The situation there is relatively more complex, and their methods differ greatly from ours."
This piqued Lin Yuan's curiosity. "Aren't you a district police officer? And you just got promoted recently; how do you know so much?"
It was then that Zheng Yun realized she had forgotten to mention her own identity to Lin Yuan.
My father is a district police officer, so when you get there, you should be able to see him.
Hmm?
Although Zheng Yun is currently only doing copywriting work, she hopes to contribute to criminal cases in the future.
Lin Yuan didn’t ask any more questions. After hanging up the phone, he found Bai Qiushui’s contact information.
Meanwhile, Bai Qiushui was still tinkering with his computer in the hotel. It was already two in the afternoon, and he hadn’t eaten yet. His face looked a bit pale as he stared at the screen in front of him.
An English chat interface was displayed on the screen.
Just as he was about to type his next message, Lin Yuan's call came through.
He abandoned the chat and answered the phone.
"Hello?"
"Buy a plane ticket back tonight. I don’t need you here for now. We can talk more when you return."
"Lin Yuan, isn’t it a bit harsh to just discard me like this? Use me and then throw me away?"
Bai Qiushui clearly sounded displeased.
"I see you’ve been quite busy lately, haven’t you?"
Bai Qiushui widened his eyes at the interface in front of him.
"Are you spying on me?"
"I can’t understand that stuff anyway. You know my education level isn’t high."
After thinking for a moment, Bai Qiushui still felt a bit suspicious.
"Didn’t you think about letting me stay here?"
"Hmm? Returning to the capital is where you can truly make an impact, isn’t it?"
With a helpless sigh, he realized he had academic commitments to complete there; he had taken leave to come over this time.
"Then if I contact you, you must reply to me."
With that assurance from him, Bai Qiushui finally felt a bit more at ease.
