Chapter 037: Where were you when the crime happened?

At noon, Charlotte called Lin Rui.

"I came out of the hospital. I am in great health now. I eat it so well. Can you come out now?" Charlotte asked Lin Rui.

"It seems a bit early to go to have a meal now, right?" Lin Rui retorted with a wry smile.

"No, I want you to take me to meet the daughter of the deceased, that is, Chen Qi. I want to ask her a few questions in person?"

"Okay, I'll say to my dad first..."

Lin Rui knocked on the door and walked into Lin Anmin's office and asked to go out, but Lin Anmin did not object.

Just as Lin Rui was about to leave, Wang Xiaolei stood up and called Lin Rui.

"Ruirui, I have dug out all the information I can find on the Internet. Come and take a look," Wang Xiaolei called Lin Rui to come and see the computer. "Chen Qi's father and the deceased Cui Yan met ten years ago. At that time, Chen Qi's father and original wife had been separated. It seemed that because the divorce conditions were not agreed, both parties wanted custody of their daughter. Later, the original wife's mother got sick and lost her job, and basically had no income. It was a problem for her daughter to go to school. It was at this time that Chen Qi's father forced her to sign a divorce agreement and successfully obtained custody..."

Lin Rui listened and remembered it firmly in her heart. She said, "What you found is similar to what I think. Cui Yan is probably the mistress. Is there anything else?"

Wang Xiaolei continued: "Chen Qi found not much information. I looked at her Weibo. Judging from the content posted on her Weibo, her stepmother was very bad to her and was sarcastic all day long, as if she was deliberately putting her shoes on her. So, Chen Qi said before that she had a good relationship with her stepmother, and she was obviously lying!"

"It's okay, Wang Xiaolei, why don't you play less games in the future and spend more energy on investigating cases?" Lin Rui said sarcastically.

"Ruirui, are you going out? Let me go with you?" Wang Xiaolei asked when he saw the bag Lin Rui was carrying.

"You don't use it, you don't have a mission. Please help me check Guo Ming's information..."

"Uh, yes, yes, but I'm also a criminal policeman. I hope you don't treat me as a technician?" Wang Xiaolei said unwillingly.

...

Chen Qi lied to the police, which was basically certain, so Charlotte planned to meet Chen Qi today.

Of course, even if Lin Rui takes Charlotte to find Chen Qi with her, she may continue to lie.

However, Charlotte had the confidence to peel out the secrets in her heart layer by layer like onions.

When Lin Rui left the city bureau, she called Chen Qi and asked where she was?

Chen Qi had a bad impression of Lin Rui, so she told Lin Rui that she was doing cosmetics promotion activities in the lobby of the ground floor of a shopping mall.

In order not to disturb Chen Qi's normal work, Lin Rui and Charlotte walked into the large shopping mall together and it was lunch break.

The promotional event in the morning was over. Chen Qi was wearing a blue uniform and a black short skirt, helping several colleagues clean the scene.

Lin Rui walked over and asked in a very normal tone: "Hello Miss Chen, Miss Chen, this is my colleague. Can we take up how many minutes of your time?"

"Do you have anything else to ask?" Chen Qi asked with some disgust.

"Don't be nervous, let's find a quiet place to chat for a few words?" Charlotte said with a smile.

"Okay, I... am not nervous?!" Chen Qi retorted.

The three of them walked to a flower bed where there was a strip of chairs. Lin Rui pulled Chen Qi to sit down, and Charlotte stood opposite Chen Qi.

"Miss Chen, I'm just asking you a few questions on a routine basis. Don't be nervous, just answer honestly," Charlotte coughed before asking, "Where were you at the time of the incident?"

"I...I haven't said that there are activities here on the company, and there are promotional activities similar to today, so I went back late. It was already dark when I entered the community. I heard from the neighbors and security guards about the murderer's murder..."

"Wait a minute, Miss Chen, please think clearly and answer it is OK?"

"I think it very clearly?!"

"The police have already called out the surveillance camera at the entrance of the community. At 5:30 pm, you were photographed entering the entrance of the community. Moreover, we visited your neighbors, and some people said that they had seen you, which means that you had already gone home before the incident..."

When Chen Qi heard this, his expression became stiff in an instant!

"Why are you lying?" Lin Rui asked in Chen Qi's eyes.

"You... don't get me wrong, I have no malicious intentions," Chen Qi shook her hands violently, and she replied slowly, "I lie because... because I'm afraid you suspect me..."

"Isn't it more suspicious that you have been discovered now?!" Lin Rui asked again.

"I hope you will be honest this time, what were you doing at that time?" Charlotte asked in a firm tone.

Chen Qi's face turned slightly red due to nervousness. She replied: "I did go home at around 5 o'clock that day. I went home to cook for my mother. After cooking, I went downstairs and took a walk in the community. This is my habit. I didn't go home until after 7 o'clock. Later, I ran back when I heard the sirens. Then I realized that something was wrong at home..."

"Then let me ask you, who have you met in the community during this period? Can anyone prove that you have been walking downstairs?" Charlotte asked very seriously.

Hearing Charlotte's tone, Chen Qi was unhappy. She looked at Lin Rui unhappily and complained to her: "Police Lin, what's wrong with your colleague? Listen to his tone, he is completely treating the suspect?!"

"Miss Chen, you just need to answer the questions!" Charlotte was not polite and continued to ask.

Chen Qi subconsciously glanced at Lin Rui again, perhaps with the intention of asking for help, but unfortunately, this female policewoman who was very gentle before actually had an indifferent expression on her face.

Chen Qi lowered her head helplessly and subconsciously grabbed the skirt with her fingers. Obviously, her heart was fluctuating greatly.

Of course, this action did not escape Charlotte's keen eyes.

"It was dark at that time and I didn't meet anyone. This is the fact. I was afraid that you would not believe it, so I lied and said that I was working. How could you doubt me?" Chen Qi's tone suddenly became tough, "My mother was killed. Several security guards saw the murderer with their own eyes. Now the murderer is still at large. You don't catch the murderer but come to suspect me. Humph, are your police very idle?!"
