Jinan City, in a large hotel room, Cai was doing a livestream introducing dishes. He and An Ni were invited to check in this hotel and promote for the hotel.
Suddenly, several policemen walked over. There was a hint of panic in An Ni's eyes, and the spoon in her hand fell to the ground.
"Mr. Song, hello. We are from the Criminal Investigation Detachment of the Public Security Bureau of Jinan City. We now suspect you are involved in a murder case. Please come with us."
Officer Yang took out his ID, and then looked at An Ni to the side and said, "Miss Zhao, please come with us too."
Cai was not flustered at all. He continued with his phone, "My fans and friends, now I have some officers here to see me, but don't worry, we'll see each other again at 8pm tonight!"
After ending his livestream, Cai turned to Officer Yang in surprise, "Officer, what's going on? I'm very busy, why don't you just contact my lawyer?"
Officer Yang put the criminal detention order on the table and said solemnly, "Mr. Song, please cooperate, otherwise I will have to take compulsory measures."
Cai stood up and tidied his hair, smiling, "Let's go officer."
At the same time, he patted An Ni on the shoulder and said, "Baby, don't be scared. The police just want us to assist in the investigation. It's nothing..."
...
On the other side, Qiu Qiang came to the hostel where Song Shan and his girlfriend were renting with a search warrant, but after searching every corner, he could not find any clues related to the murder case.
In the interrogation room, Cai looked at Officer Wen calmly, still smiling, "Officer, I don't know what you're talking about. I want to see my lawyer. Before my lawyer arrives, I refuse to answer any questions."
Wen Jie looked at Song Shan and became more convinced that he was involved in the case. He took out some papers and placed them in front of Song Shan, saying, "Du Chunyan, your girlfriend 10 years ago. You told her about you and your brother Song Lin's murder and robbery, but she reported it to the police. Your brother was sentenced to death, and because you were under 18, you served eight years in prison... After being released from prison, you found Du Chunyan and killed her..."
"Hey, officer, what story are you telling? I don't understand!"
Song Shan interrupted Officer Wen's words and looked at him disdainfully, laughing, "Shouldn't the police talk about evidence when investigating a case? When did storytelling become popular..."
Just then, Wen Jie heard Qiu Qiang's voice in his earpiece: Team Wen, no evidence was found in Song Shan's residence. I have notified the public security bureau where Song Shan used to live to assist in investigating the hotel surveillance video of Song Shan's entry and exit.
"Officer, please be more professional, okay? I still have a live stream tonight that I've already been paid for, with a high penalty for breach of contract..." Song Shan looked at Officer Wen impatiently.
After that, whenever Officer Wen mentioned anything related to the case, Song Shan would either ask to see his lawyer or directly keep silent.
Walking out of the interrogation room, Wen Jie and Director Fu looked at each other, and said, "It looks like he's a tough nut to crack. Let's start with his girlfriend next and see if Qiu's team can find evidence."
No fingerprints or DNA of Song Shan’s were found at the murder scene, and no evidence in Song Shan's residence could prove he committed the murder. Relying solely on the city and time captured in the short video, it was impossible to identify Song Shan as the suspect.
Song Shan was very smart and very cautious.
In another interrogation room, An Ni, real name Zhao Qi, also pleaded ignorance to everything asked. She seemed very cooperative but kept beating around the bush.
Not long after, Song Shan's lawyer arrived, Ding Lei, a notorious lawyer in the industry who specialized in defending rich people. In his eyes, whether you broke the law or not, as long as you paid, he would defend you.
After winning several highly controversial cases, he gained the trust of wealthy people.
He was a lawyer who was publicly recognized as having sold out his conscience for money.
In a small room, Ding Lei looked at the calm Song Shan and said, "The police can only detain you for 24 hours. As for the compensation for your livestream, I'm already negotiating with the other party. Here, you just need to keep quiet and leave the rest to me..."
"Thank you, Lawyer Ding," Song Shan said with a hint of a smile, and whispered in Ding Lei's ear, "Please keep an eye on An Ni. Girls can be a little nervous."
On the other side, Qiu Qiang was vigorously collecting evidence, video surveillance recordings from local public security bureaus, Song Shan’s hotel stays, however, Song Shan did not leave the hotel on the night of the incident.
But it wasn't without gains. Song Shan's girlfriend Zhao Qi always chose a room on the second floor when booking hotels, and there were no railings in the room.
This also meant that Song Shan was very likely to leave through the window. During visits to these hotels, it was discovered that there were no surveillance cameras behind them.
The police expanded their scope and found a suspicious figure wearing a mask and hat near the hotels.
Even so, they still could not prove that Song Shan was the man in the mask and hat.
"Scumbag!" Yang Lin angrily threw the transcript on the table and looked at Wen Jie, "Master, are we just going to let him leave swaggering like that? Thirteen lives! He's simply a devil!"
Wen Jie's face was also very ugly. He glared at Yang Lin and retorted, "No matter how cunning a fox is, there will be a time when its tail is exposed. As criminal police, what we have to do is find a breakthrough and evidence to punish him as he deserves!"
"Check Song Shan and Zhao Qi's call records, online shopping records, and chat records on the short video platform, expand the scope, and leave no detail unexamined!"
There were only 8 hours left for the police.
"Wait! Contact the short video platform to send over the chat records of all the victims' accounts. How did the murderer know the victims' addresses? Keep investigating along this line of thought..."
Time ticked by second by second, Song Shan was still very calm, but Zhao Qi became more and more nervous.
The last 30 minutes.
Suddenly, Officer Wen walked in and said solemnly, "Song Shan, you are suspected of murdering 13 women. We are legally detaining you criminally... Don't worry, we've notified your lawyer..."
"Zhao Qi, you are suspected of assisting Song Shan in murdering 13 women. We are legally detaining you criminally..."
Song Shan suddenly lifted his head and laughed wildly at Officer Wen, "Hahaha, impossible, you're trying to trick me. I have the right to sue you, I want to see my lawyer... You're breaking the law!"
Wen Jie completely ignored Song Shan and handcuffed him directly, saying, "No matter how cunning a fox is, it's no match for a good hunter. What awaits you is the punishment of the law!"
"I'm not going anywhere, I want to see my lawyer, you have no evidence..." Song Shan clung tightly to the interrogation chair.
"You're very smart, destroyed all the evidence, but there's one thing you wouldn't destroy..." Wen Jie said.
"What?" Song Shan looked up at Wen Jie's eyes.
"The person who helped you find your targets!"
Song Shan's face instantly turned pale. He collapsed to the ground, then burst into a mad laugh, "They all deserved to die, didn't they? Wasn't I good to her? She did something wrong so she should be punished..."
