Chapter 88: Chapter 77: Show off Your Brilliance in Front of Others!_2
Xiao Peng was not usually a talkative person. The reason he spoke so much was because it was part of his interrogation plan.
From forcefully bringing them here to saying so much.
It was all part of the interrogation plan.
The goal was to expose their lies, guess their psychological activities and thoughts as much as possible, undermine their confidence, and disrupt their mental fortitude.
Then take advantage of the situation to strike...
Catch them off guard during the interrogation!
"Lin Beichen didn’t show up because he didn’t want to be discovered!"
Sun Chao retorted excitedly.
Just then, he suddenly figured it out. The lightning that had been chasing him didn’t appear now, which could only mean that Lin Beichen was behind the scenes, controlling everything!
Seeing him with the police...
He decided to stop!
Lin Beichen didn’t appear, but his presence was everywhere!
At that moment, Sun Chao was incredibly certain of his previous opinion: Lin Beichen was indeed a high-level person!
However, before he could say more.
Xiao Peng waved his hand directly, "Alright, alright."
Seeing Sun Chao’s rising emotions.
He believed that his interrogation plan had begun to show results, so he probed, "Let me ask you, outside this area, there’s another area where a charred corpse was struck by lightning. Was he your accomplice?"
"Yes."
Sun Chao thought Xiao Peng was starting to believe him and was asking questions to further confirm, so he cooperated fully.
"What’s your accomplice’s name?"
"Zhong Bai."
Xiao Peng nodded, confirming the name.
Zhong Bai’s identity had been confirmed through DNA comparison by the technical department.
Seeing Sun Chao’s cooperation.
He felt that his interrogation plan was working well.
The significant effect of the interrogation was likely due to his previous reasoning and guesses striking directly at Sun Chao’s heart, throwing him off balance.
For a moment, he became even more confident in his previous reasoning and guesses, convinced that this was the truth!
At this moment, Sun Dewang suddenly asked, "Speaking of Zhong Bai’s corpse, were you digging a pit to bury the body when we found you?"
"The pit wasn’t dug by us."
Sun Chao shook his head, explaining, "When we got there, the pit was already there. The pit should have been dug by Lin Beichen. There was a big stone or a wooden stake there before, and Lin Beichen was sitting right next to it."
"..."
For a moment, not only Sun Dewang but also the other officers were at a loss for words. It seemed every sentence revolved around Lin Beichen. He was determined to act crazy and pin everything on Lin Beichen. 𝘯𝘰𝑣𝘱𝑢𝘣.𝑐𝑜𝑚
At this moment, a technical department officer came over and reported to Xiao Peng, "Captain Xiao, the identities of the twelve deceased at the scene have all been confirmed through DNA comparison."
"Hmm, not bad."
"But..."
"But what?"
"There are some new findings."
"What findings?"
"During the examination of this scene and the previous one, some hair and skin tissue fragments were found. DNA comparison showed a high match with some of the deceased, indicating they fell off as those individuals passed through the area. However..."
At this point, the technical officer’s face showed a strange expression and continued, "However, there is one DNA sample that does not match any of the deceased at the scene, and this DNA was found at both scenes. By cross-referencing the DNA database, we confirmed that this DNA...comes from Lin Beichen."
"?"
Xiao Peng and the officers were stunned. Lin Beichen?
Beside them, Sun Chao grabbed onto this piece of information like a lifeline, eagerly saying, "See, officers, we weren’t lying. Lin Beichen is no ordinary university student, he’s an expert, a real expert! He wasn’t missing; he was just not discovered!"
Xiao Peng and the officers looked at each other thoughtfully. Lin Beichen had appeared at both scenes?
Thinking about the recent series of lightning incidents...
They started to furrow their brows, a mix of surprise and confusion shining in their eyes.
Lightning strikes aren’t usually this frequent. How come there’s been an uptick recently, and why does Lin Beichen seem to be present at all these incidents?
Or perhaps...
Places where Lin Beichen appears are more prone to lightning strikes?
Thinking about this made their expressions quite odd.
Was it due to Lin Beichen’s research on lightning?
If so, was he sacrificing himself for science?
Despite their wild speculations, they could not figure out the key connection and could only suspect it might be linked to Lin Beichen’s scientific research.
But what kind of research could attract so much lightning?
They figured they should ask people from Imperial Capital University when they had the chance.
Something was definitely off!
However, they didn’t believe Sun Chao’s attempts to frame Lin Beichen, even though he appeared at both crime scenes. When the human traffickers were struck by lightning, Lin Beichen wasn’t actually there. How could he be connected to this?
"Captain Xiao, I think we should continue this interrogation back at the station."
At this point, Sun Dewang pointed at Zou Huaide worriedly, "I don’t think he can hold on any longer."
Xiao Peng looked over and saw that Zou Huaide was completely out of strength, barely standing with the help of the officers next to him, his head lolling and eyes rolling back.
"Hmm, alright."
With that, he quickly assigned the tasks.
As he was preparing to wrap up and lead Sun Chao and the others down the mountain.
