I am a super cop

Huang Lifeng seemed to still be in fear when he talked about the situation at that time, but Gu Chen had already learned about this from General Manager Liao and Zhang Linlin.

The purpose of questioning Huang Lifeng was simply to find out whether the three people were suspected of collusion.

So Gu Chen continued to ask about the follow-up: "Didn't you fight at that time?"

"No." Huang Lifeng shook his head.

"Why? Why don't they fight even after all this?" Lu Weiwei expressed her incomprehension.

But Huang Lifeng sighed and said: "I was a little scared at the time, but Zhang Linlin stopped me and said we were just drunk."

"Aren't you all like this?" The more Lu Weiwei listened, the harder it became to understand.

Huang Lifeng snorted coldly: "I couldn't understand it at the time. After all, that man's girlfriend was sleeping in my bed."

"I originally thought that I might get beaten up so that he could vent his anger, but the situation turned out that under Zhang Linlin's persuasion, the man actually backed down."

"After he put clothes on his girlfriend, he left angrily with her. After that, I couldn't contact Zhang Linlin anymore."

"So I went to ask Mr. Liao, and he said that I was relatively lucky, because the man was a coward, because there was no love between Zhang Linlin and the man, and it seemed that the two had broken up or something like that."

"When I heard that, I felt okay. At least they broke up and I didn't ruin their relationship."

"And I often interact with Zhang Linlin in the live broadcast room. We even often interact on WeChat. She clearly told me that she is single. Although I don't really believe it, once someone says it many times, I will believe it."

After a pause, Huang Lifeng continued, "But I think that man will not let it go. After all, if it were me, I would definitely seek revenge."

"But I never expected that after so many days, there was no movement on my side, but on Mr. Liao's side, a female member of the group was kidnapped. I don't know whether this is revenge or not."

"That man is dead." Gu Chen said slowly as Huang Lifeng finished speaking.

"No...no, what did you say? That man is dead? Which man?" Huang Lifeng was a little confused.

Lu Weiwei said without hesitation: "That's the man you fear the most."

"You mean, Zhang Linlin's boyfriend?" Huang Lifeng looked horrified.

Lu Weiwei nodded silently and continued, "He was strangled to death and thrown into the river. We have found the body."

"No... No, how could this happen?" Huang Lifeng seemed to be at a loss for words after seeing this ending. He looked at Gu Chen and the others, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses:

"If that's the case, it's unfortunate."

"Then who do you think killed him?" Officer Wang asked him tentatively.

Huang Lifeng was stunned immediately, and quickly clarified himself: "It's definitely not me. You can investigate it at will, because I am innocent."

"Are you innocent? You didn't have any affair with Zhang Linlin..."

"No, absolutely not." Before Officer Wang finished speaking, Huang Lifeng quickly raised his hand and swore:
"Although I wanted to, I was drunk that day, and I don't know who sent me to the hotel."

"I later found out that it was Zhang Linlin, a drunk Zhang Linlin. We supported each other and walked into the hotel room together."

"You can check the hotel's surveillance. The surveillance footage at the time explains everything. I have watched it myself."

"So..." Lu Weiwei also looked hesitant.

"So even though Zhang Linlin and I slept together, nothing happened."

"Especially the sudden appearance of that man made me a little hesitant, because I know that barefoot people are not afraid of those wearing shoes. If that man has a tendency to be violent, then wouldn't I be in big trouble?"

"But then I heard that something happened to Mr. Liao and that all the female members of the group were kidnapped, so I told him right away that it must have been Zhang Linlin's boyfriend who did it."

"Because Zhang Linlin betrayed him, he will definitely blame it on Zhang Linlin's boss, Mr. Liao."

Spreading his hands, Huang Lifeng continued, "So, that man will definitely cause trouble for Mr. Liao, but Mr. Liao is not sure either. He just told me that he has called the police and they are currently investigating."

"But isn't it obvious? I thought at the time that as long as you police find Zhang Linlin's boyfriend, you will definitely be able to find the girl group member."

At the end of his speech, Huang Lifeng also sighed heavily and said helplessly:

"But I never thought that the man was dead? Could it be that this matter had nothing to do with him?"

Listening to Huang Lifeng's explanation, Gu Chen also began to observe carefully.

After all, many of the things Huang Lifeng said are basically true.

For example, after he got drunk that day, he and Zhang Linlin indeed left together, supporting each other.

Gu Chen also sighed and said, "Before the female group members were kidnapped, Zhang Linlin's boyfriend had already died."

"No way?" Huang Lifeng was shocked again when he heard the result.

But Huang Lifeng seemed to be self-aware, and he quickly explained to Gu Chen and the others:

"Comrade police officer, I declare once again that this matter has absolutely nothing to do with me."

"First of all, I have no grudge against this man. I don't have any reason to be against him."

"We didn't say it was you. We just want to know what kind of woman Zhang Linlin is?" Lu Weiwei went straight to the point.

We have just been testing Huang Lifeng repeatedly and found that Huang Lifeng is just a greedy and lustful man, but when it comes to killing Liu Wenjie, he seems to have no motive to kill.

But Zhang Linlin is different. Since we started investigating Zhang Linlin, we have found that Zhang Linlin has many contradictions.

That's why everyone wants to get to know Zhang Linlin more comprehensively through the people around her.

"Is that so?" Huang Lifeng, who had recovered from his shock, took a deep breath and said slowly:

"In fact, Zhang Linlin is a money-loving person."

"What do you mean?" Yuan Shasha asked.

"It's a very simple truth." Huang Lifeng spread his hands and said slowly:
"She is first and foremost a live streamer, and live streamers mainly rely on talent shows to solicit gifts from fans. Zhang Linlin's strengths and weaknesses are also very obvious."

"First of all, she is beautiful and has the image of a queen, which is why she has so many fans."

"But her shortcomings are also very obvious, that is, she lacks talent to show. She can't sing or dance, and can only rely on chatting with people to maintain the popularity of the live broadcast."

"If I hadn't given her gifts frequently, it would have been hard for her livestreaming room to gain popularity."

"Also, she always asks everyone to give gifts. Compared with other anchors, she wants gifts more strongly."

"That's why, every time I give her gifts, she shows that she's willing to marry me." "It's also because of this that many male netizens are vying to give her gifts."

"Anything else?" Gu Chen asked calmly after listening to Huang Lifeng's explanation.

Huang Lifeng nodded silently and continued to explain: "In addition to live broadcasts, we often contact each other by phone and text messages. She always wants to ask me for gifts."

"Fortunately, my family is wealthy, so this money is nothing to me. During festivals, I can transfer a large sum of money to her so that she can call me husband for a day."

"I got spiritual satisfaction, she got material satisfaction, and we both got what we needed."

"But I have been working in financial investment for so many years, and I have met many people like Zhang Linlin, who are very utilitarian and have a strong desire for money."

"But fortunately, I was quite sober and was just playing around with Zhang Linlin. But Zhang Linlin seemed to know this and knew that I didn't care about her, so she kept asking me out."

After a pause, Huang Lifeng also sighed and said: "But actually, I don't have time to meet, but I have some friendship with Mr. Liao."

"It was Mr. Liao who asked me to help support his company's anchor, and I did so. As for the drinking party afterwards, I don't know whether it was Mr. Liao's idea or Zhang Linlin's idea."

"In short, I feel like I've been tricked. It feels like someone has set me up."

"When you mentioned setting up a trap, are you referring to the invitation from Mr. Liao?" asked Officer Wang.

"Yes." Huang Lifeng did not hide his guess:

"Everything was normal that day, but why did Zhang Linlin appear in my room naked? And sleep in the same bed with me? This in itself is very problematic."

"Also, how did her boyfriend find her? Unless she said so herself, how could he find the room so accurately?"

"Then there is only one possibility. Zhang Linlin was being followed, or she might have some kind of positioning device on her body, and the other end of this positioning device is linked to her boyfriend's mobile phone."

"That's why her boyfriend came to break down the door of the hotel and even got the hotel room card."

"All of this made me feel a little unbelievable at the time. It felt like someone was setting me up."

"Then who do you think it is?" Gu Chen asked straight to the point.

Huang Lifeng hesitated for a moment, and then slowly said, "I think it should be Mr. Liao, because he arranged all this."

"What's the reason? He arranged for a female anchor to drink with you, and then set up a trap for you. What did he want?" asked Officer Wang.

"I don't know." Huang Lifeng shook his head and sighed:
"Yeah, what was he after? I don't know, but that night, I felt something was very unusual."

"From the beginning, I felt like I was being tricked into something."

"But then everything was fine. Zhang Linlin's boyfriend appeared in front of me, furious, but he didn't hit me."

"Zhang Linlin also lost contact afterwards and has not been contacted to this day. Then, as you said, her boyfriend died, and no one knows who did it."

"All of this makes me feel a little confused and a little unreal."

Looking up at Gu Chen and the others, Huang Lifeng continued to explain:

"At first, I felt that it was Mr. Liao who was behind this, but now that I think about it, that's impossible. After all, the girl group members of Mr. Liao's company were also kidnapped."

"This means that his so-called celebrity concert may be a failure. This is related to the future of his company, and it was ruined by kidnapping in such a trivial way."

"So now that I think about it, it's unlikely that this scheme was set up by Mr. Liao."

"But you also said that Zhang Linlin's boyfriend died before the kidnapping, so I am very confused. What is going on?"

Huang Lifeng's explanation also opened up Gu Chen's mind.

Indeed, if the mastermind behind all this was Mr. Liao from the MCN agency, then it would seem hard to explain why the girl group members were kidnapped.

Because if the girl group members cannot attend the star concert as scheduled, then the so-called gambling clauses he signed will cause Mr. Liao to suffer heavy losses, and it may be difficult for him to recover in the future.

So there are many reasonable points here, but also many things that are difficult to explain.

Especially Zhang Linlin, in Huang Lifeng's words, seems to be a very scheming woman.

But when Gu Chen brought everyone to Zhang Linlin's apartment to investigate, Zhang Linlin looked innocent.

It seems that she can even accept her boyfriend confiscating her phone, and even being cut off from the outside world for 10 days.

This kind of unreasonable behavior made Gu Chen feel that Zhang Linlin was the most suspicious person here.

Because of her personality traits, what people say about her is very different from her actual behavior.

Too much contrast is the cause of doubt.

Moreover, everyone has been investigating Huang Lifeng before, and it seems that Huang Lifeng, the number one brother on the list, is the root of everything.

But now it seems that Huang Lifeng is just a pawn of Mr. Liao.

However, the kidnapping of Mr. Liao’s girl group showed that he had nothing to do with it. Coupled with the strange behavior of Zhang Linlin’s boyfriend, Gu Chen finally felt that Zhang Linlin was lying.

Maybe she has been doing some shocking things outside these days, but she needs to use some behavior to hide it.

Therefore, the 10-day suspension and disconnection may be the best time to hide her behavior.

After communicating with Huang Lifeng, Gu Chen took everyone out of the company.

Back in the car, Gu Chen began to think deeply.

Lu Weiwei, who was sitting in the passenger seat, also quickly asked Gu Chen: "Junior Brother Gu, do you think that among these suspects, only Zhang Linlin is the most problematic?"

"Senior Sister Lu also noticed it?" Hearing Lu Weiwei's words, Gu Chen smiled slightly and quickly responded:

"Yes, we actually think the same thing. I also think that Zhang Linlin seems to be the link that connects the entire incident."

"If Zhang Linlin hadn't been in the middle of all this, then these would have been independent events. It is precisely because of Zhang Linlin's existence that all of this is linked together."

After a pause, Gu Chen continued to explain: "For example, Mr. Liao and Zhang Linlin have a boss-employee relationship, and the female group members and Zhang Linlin have a colleague relationship."

"Huang Lifeng and Zhang Linlin were lovers, and the deceased Liu Wenjie and Zhang Linlin were lovers."

"So if we want to understand the whole incident, then the source of all this must be Zhang Linlin."
