Chapter 0415 Informant
Zhang Li slowly moved his feet, he didn’t dare to turn his back to Chen Ge, and after seeing Chen Ge enter the house, he also added another sentence in that gloomy voice: “Just leave the door of the room open to get some air.”
”Boom!”
Chen Ge unlocked the door and entered the house carrying the skull crushing hammer as he looked around.
The room was very simple, with a few pieces of ordinary furniture, wafting a pungent odor of poor quality smoke.
On the coffee table sat an iron plate piled high with cigarette butts, and a lot of soot and small holes from accidental burns could be seen next to the couch.
”You like smoking?” As if Chen Ge had returned to his home, he moved a chair and sat in the living room near the entrance of the room.
”Is this considered the first question?” Zhang Li drooped his face and stood next to the coffee table, feeling that he rather looked very restrained.
”Just answer whatever I ask, I’m doing this for your own good.” Chen Ge looked at the cigarettes on the iron plate, there were many types, but the prices were all very cheap.
”For my good?” Zhang Li took a few steps back and leaned against the edge of the window sill, “What exactly do you want?”
Chen Ge took out the security pass from his pocket and placed it on the coffee table, putting the skull crushing hammer away, “Who was the woman who went to the haunted house with you this morning?”
”My sister, she just recently quit her job and wasn’t in a very good mood, that’s why I took time off to accompany her to the park.”
”When the two of you entered the haunted house, why did you intentionally avoid the students of the Nine Rivers Academy of Forensic Sciences? Were you worried about being recognized?” Chen Ge wove a big net for Tension, waiting for Tension to enter before slowly tightening it.
”Those students don’t like me, so if they recognize me, it might be troublesome.” Tension took a breath, “And my sister and I have gotten used to it.”
”Used to what?” Chen Ge realized that there was something in Tension’s words, as if he was hiding something else.
”My sister used to attend the Jiujiang Forensic Medicine School, she had a conflict with another girl in the school over a certain matter, and coincidentally, that girl disappeared the next day.” Zhang Li’s fingers slowly clenched tightly, “Since then someone in the school started a rumor that the girl’s disappearance had something to do with my sister.”
This matter was indeed quite coincidental, otherwise Li Zheng wouldn’t have listed Zhang Shi Han and Zhang Li as suspects.
Chen Ge nodded, “What did those students say?”
”At first, those assholes knew how to discuss it behind my sister’s back, then they simply talked about it out loud in front of my sister, they said that the girl’s depression became worse because of a fight with my sister and she ended up committing suicide; others simply said that my sister was the murderer, and that it was my sister who hid the girl.” When Zhang Li said this, he fished out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and took out one to light it.
The smoke rose, only then did Zhang Li feel a little better, “Many of the students who originally played well with my sister left her, during that time my sister was about to break down, she even personally ran to various parts of the school to look for the missing girl, but sadly, she never found her.”
”No wonder you are so cold towards the students of the Jiujiang Forensic Medicine School, I didn’t realize that these things had happened.” Chen Ge looked at Tension as he spoke after half a day, “The police once contacted me, and both you and your sister were key suspects in that missing girl murder case. Their suspicions are not unreasonable, and considering the three aspects of motive, time of commission, and ability to commit the crime, you are indeed the most suspicious.”
”We didn’t kill anyone! That girl’s disappearance has nothing to do with us at all!” Zhang Li was annoyed, but he didn’t dare to show it, so he could only bite the cigarette butt in his mouth flat and take it out on him.
”I know you guys didn’t kill anyone, the real murderer isn’t you guys, you were just used.” Chen Ge now heard Zhang Li recounting what happened back then, he realized how well thought out the person who set up this bureau was, he not only disposed of all the clues, but also used those students who were not aware of the truth, and got two scapegoats out of it, guiding the police in the wrong direction.
When Tension heard Chen Ge say in a very certain tone that the real culprits were not them, this man with a terrible personality glanced at Chen Ge with some surprise, and he suddenly felt that the man in front of him was not so detestable.
”You’re home on vacation today, so you’re still not clear, the missing girl’s body has been found, and her murderer has surrendered.” Chen Ge did not hide anything.
”Who is the murderer!” Zhang Li extinguished his cigarette and walked over to Chen Ge.
”It’s that well-dressed staff member from your school, seems to be called Liu Zhe.”
”Liu Zhe!” Zhang Li stayed in place, seemingly a little unable to accept this fact.
”Liu Zhe is only one of the murderers, there is another one that has not been found so far, and we now only know that the other murderer is related to the underground corpse vault.”
”You guys?” Zhang Li noticed that Chen Ge’s wording was rather strange.
Chen Ge’s expression instantly became serious as he pointed to the unlocked room door, “Don’t tell anyone about what I said to you below.”
Zhang Li nodded nervously, “I’m the only one living on this floor, so don’t worry about being overheard by anyone, and I definitely won’t tell a third person.”
”That’s fine.” Chen Ge took out his cell phone to show the frequent call records between himself and the Yan team of the city precinct, Li Sanbao of the Xicheng police station, and Li Zheng of the criminal investigation group, then slowly spoke, “Actually, I am an informant arranged by the police, and have cooperated in the investigation of many cases.”
Zhang Li seemed to understand, and did not know why, he gradually felt that Chen Ge could still be trusted.
”You and your sister are not in a very good situation right now.” Chen Ge immediately threw out another heavy information, “Now there is still a murderer who has not been caught, the situation is still very dangerous, he is very familiar with the Jiujiang Forensic Medicine School, he should be hiding right beside you, for the time being we can’t be sure of who it is, in order not to cause panic, that’s why I came over here, I want to look for you to understand some situation.”
”As long as I know, I will definitely tell you everything.” Zhang Li’s voice wasn’t as suppressed anymore, and he sat down next to Chen Ge with a very different attitude from earlier.
”We need information about the underground corpse vault, the more detailed the better.” Chen Ge was not polite and spoke directly.
”Didn’t the university already provide you with a copy of it last time you guys came over?” Zhang Li was a bit puzzled, but he still chose to trust Chen Ge: “There are the previous architectural drawings of the Corpse Vault in the library archive room, so if you need them, I can take some pictures for you.”
”The architectural drawings are just one aspect.” Chen Ge wasn’t satisfied, “You’ve been a security guard in the school for so many years, have you ever found anything strange running out of the underground corpse vault? Or encountered any more bizarre events?”
