I am a super cop

In the office, Gu Chen rubbed his face and picked up the phone to continue asking:

"So, Dr. Huang, Liu Wen hasn't contacted you since he left that time?"

"No," Dr. Huang answered decisively on the phone, without giving any room for argument.
“I was particularly impressed by him that time, and I could see the despair in Liu Wen’s eyes. It seemed that this result was a bolt from the blue for him.”

"Of course, anyone would break down in this situation."

"I advised him to think more positively, that it wasn't a big deal, and not to be stubborn or anything. I was trying to comfort him and encourage him to actively seek treatment."

"So when I later received a call from our local police asking if I knew a patient named Liu Wen, I was able to remember him very quickly because I had a strong impression of him."

After a pause, Dr. Huang continued, "Then I received your call, so I don't know what happened. But I think it must be because of Liu Wen's wife's pregnancy?"

"After all, the discovery of this matter meant the breakdown of the family. But when I heard you say that Liu Wen died of poisoning, my heart skipped a beat. I was really surprised."

"It was indeed unexpected," Gu Chen echoed.

"Yes, we originally thought they were getting a divorce because of family conflicts, but it turns out that Liu Wen, who came for treatment, is dead. We really don't know what happened."

Over the phone, Gu Chen sensed Dr. Huang's helplessness and slowly said:

"So, it's true that Liu Wen is infertile, right?" Gu Chen asked.

"No, that won't happen." Upon hearing Gu Chen's words, Dr. Huang on the phone quickly echoed:
“We had him get a second check-up, and there was no problem. He is indeed infertile, we can be sure of that.”

"Okay, thank you very much for your cooperation."

After getting the result he wanted, Gu Chen expressed his gratitude.

After hanging up the phone, Gu Chen fell into deep thought, his hands crossed and resting on his chin.

Yuan Shasha also reminded him, "After Liu Wen learned that he could not have children, he did not allow the doctor to tell anyone else, and he certainly would not tell his lover, Xiao Lili, either."

"In that case, Xiao Lili might not know that Liu Wen is infertile."

"Hmm, that's possible." Listening to Yuan Shasha's analysis, Gu Chen nodded silently and couldn't help but sigh:
"Originally, Liu Wen thought that Xiao Lili's pregnancy was an unexpected surprise for him."

"According to Xiao Lili's previous statement, Liu Wen had not thought about having children before because he was under a lot of work pressure and was busy with scientific research every day."

"But one day, Xiao Lili told Liu Wen that she was pregnant, and Liu Wen was completely stunned."

"But at this time, Liu Wen did not know that the child was not actually his own. Instead, he felt guilty because of his wife's pregnancy."

"Because at this time, Liu Wen's research project was not progressing well, he had not earned much money, and he was tied to the company by the big boss."

"So, faced with this family's dire situation, Liu Wencai decided to follow Xiao Lili's advice and go out to earn some extra money."

"This led to the agreement reached with Zhu Wei, whereby we would use 200 million yuan in publicity funds to help Zhu Wei stage a fake fight at the Robotics Summit."

"In this way, I can earn a lot of living expenses, and even the undignified way of spending 20 yuan to meet someone is something Liu Wen decided to try."

"All she wanted was to earn more money for baby formula for the family, but what Liu Wen didn't expect was that when she learned in the hospital that she was infertile, her worldview began to collapse."

"He began to realize that after so many years of busy work, striving for his ideals and his family, all he got in return was this kind of ending."

After a pause, Gu Chen continued, "That's why later, Liu Wen arranged to meet his friend Liu Guang to chat about everyday things."

"Because in my opinion, Liu Wen and Liu Guang are not only high school classmates, but also college classmates and competitors in the same industry. Neither of them is willing to admit defeat to the other."

"But at this time, Liu Wen's invitation to meet Liu Guang to strengthen their friendship was more like a farewell to a good friend."

"That's why Liu Guang had a vague feeling that Liu Wen seemed very abnormal."

"Especially Liu Guang, he actually knew everything about Liu Wen's infertility. You know, only Liu Wen and Dr. Huang knew about this. How did Liu Guang find out?"

Shaking his right index finger, Gu Chen continued, "There's only one possibility: Liu Wen told Liu Guang himself."

"Because he was his best friend and his strongest competitor, Liu Wen told Liu Guang about these weaknesses that were detrimental to him. Clearly, Liu Wen had come to terms with it, or rather, he didn't want to live anymore."

"My goodness." Listening to Gu Chen's analysis, Lu Weiwei couldn't help but sigh, "The more I listen, the more creepy it gets."

"Liu Wen's transformation from initial excitement upon learning of his wife's pregnancy to later despair about his life is something that could drive a person crazy."

Shaking her head, Lu Weiwei couldn't help but sigh, "So, in fact, Liu Wen planned to commit suicide from the very beginning, but he wanted to fulfill the promise he made earlier in the most dignified way."

"That is, to help those friends who gave him money, to help them fulfill their last wish, that is, to help Zhu Wei complete the robot arena competition, and then meet with Gao Feng."

"Because these two people were friends whom Liu Wen had promised to before he knew the truth, he had to bite the bullet and complete these tasks."

"Yes." Seeing Lu Weiwei say this, Gu Chen nodded silently.

Then Gu Chen looked at He Junchao and said without hesitation, "Senior Brother He, we still need your help to contact our colleagues in Pengcheng."

"Check if Liu Wen has recently purchased any special drugs. Also, Gao Chuanfeng provided me with some clues. After the autopsy, it was discovered that the poison Liu Wen ingested was rat poison."

"Therefore, we need the police in Pengcheng to help investigate Liu Wen's recent drug purchases."

"Understood." Hearing Gu Chen say this, He Junchao picked up his phone again and dialed the other party's number.

……

……

Time passed second by second, and it was now 9:20 p.m.

The moment He Junchao's phone rang, everyone's eyes turned to it.

He Junchao quickly picked up his phone and swiped to answer: "Hello, this is He Junchao from the Furong Branch of the Jiangnan City Public Security Bureau."

After the words were spoken, He Junchao listened attentively, then began to communicate with the other party before finally hanging up the phone.

With a heavy sigh, He Junchao turned to look at Gu Chen and the others, nodded silently, and said without further ado:

"The police in Pengcheng have confirmed that Liu Wen did indeed purchase rat poison."

"I bought it from an elderly man selling things in an alley on my way home."

"That's right." Upon hearing this result, Gu Chen sighed, rubbed his face with both hands, and couldn't help but remark:

“From the beginning, Liu Wen had planned to commit suicide, but he was also obsessed with something, after all, he had promised Zhu Wei that he would help him promote robots.”

"So Liu Wen needed to repay this favor, so he chose to bring rat poison to the Robot Summit." "After cooperating with Zhu Wei in all the robot arena matches, he decided to leave and take the rat poison."

"Later, when we were having dinner at the hotel, the rat poison took effect, and he died before he could receive treatment."

"After all, Xiao Lili was in Pengcheng and not by Liu Wen's side at all, and she had no idea that Liu Wen was planning to commit suicide."

"She came here just to get back the remaining payments that Liu Wen had made on the side."

"After all, Zhu Wei's final payment has not been settled yet. Xiao Lili may seem to have come here for her deceased husband, but in reality, she is after the money."

"What a pity." Hearing this, He Junchao couldn't help but sigh:
"Liu Wen is really unlucky to have married such a wife."

"Moreover, Liu Wen died in such a pathetic way, I really feel sorry for him."

"It's certainly not dignified enough," Yuan Shasha sighed, speaking slowly.

"In fact, tech geeks like Liu Wen have no ability to manage a family at all; his focus is entirely on scientific research."

"It can be said that such people may have a place in the scientific research field, but they are not very good at managing their families."

"And this Xiao Lili, perhaps she was tired of the boring life with Liu Wen, which is why she went out and messed around with other people."

“I originally thought that my husband could earn some extra money, but unexpectedly, he died unexpectedly.”

"But her attitude when she came here was that she was only after money, which is really disheartening."

After listening to everyone's explanation, Gu Chen rubbed his face with both hands and said without further ado, "Have Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong bring Xiao Lili over."

"Understood." Upon hearing this, Lu Weiwei immediately took out her phone and began contacting Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong.

……

……

Late at night, in the No. 1 interrogation room of the Furong Branch.

Xiao Lili was completely stunned when she was brought in.

She sat under the light, her eyes involuntarily darting around.

At that moment, the interrogation room door opened, and Gu Chen, Lu Weiwei, and Yuan Shasha walked in and sat down opposite Xiao Lili.

When she saw it was Gu Chen, Xiao Lili gave an awkward smile and quickly asked Gu Chen:
"Officer Gu, why did you bring me here so late at night?"

"We have some questions for you," Gu Chen said, seeing that Yuan Shasha had finished adjusting the camera before continuing:

"Name."

"Huh?" Xiao Lili was stunned when she heard Gu Chen's words.

So Gu Chen asked again, "Name?"

"Oh, Xiao Lili." Sensing that Gu Chen had suddenly become very serious, Xiao Lili didn't know what was going on and could only quickly cooperate.

So Gu Chen asked Xiao Lili for her ID number, and Lu Weiwei entered it in.

Seeing the three of them bustling around, Xiao Lili panicked a little and asked timidly, "Officer Gu, what brings you here so late at night?"

"I heard you're pregnant?" Lu Weiwei asked, looking up.

Xiao Lili gave an awkward laugh: "Officer Lu, didn't you already know?"

"Whose child is it?" Lu Weiwei continued to press.

Xiao Lili's face immediately turned ugly, and she didn't know how to answer for a long time.

So Lu Weiwei continued to ask her, "Whose child is it?"

"Officer Lu, are you kidding me? The child is of course my husband's."

"But your husband is infertile, didn't you know that?" Lu Weiwei frowned slightly, staring intently at Xiao Lili.

At this moment, Xiao Lili felt as if she had been struck by lightning. When she heard Lu Weiwei's words, she was completely stunned and at a loss for what to do.

"Xiao Lili, answer my question," Lu Weiwei tapped the table, continuing to remind her.

"No... how did you know? Who said... who said my husband is infertile? You're not... you're not joking, are you?"

Although she was stubborn, Xiao Lili now seemed to be speaking weakly and listlessly.

Lu Weiwei didn't waste time with her words and went straight to the point: "Liu Wen went to the hospital for a checkup and found out that he is infertile at all."

Leaning forward, Lu Weiwei continued to press, "How can a man who is infertile have children?"

"There must be some mistake, there must be." Faced with Lu Weiwei's questioning, Xiao Lili, who was in a bad mood, also turned pale.

She looked up at the crowd and tried her best to defend herself, saying, "Officer Lu, I think the hospital must have made a mistake. Yes, the hospital must have made a mistake. These quack doctors, haha, they're really funny."

“But they did a follow-up examination on your husband Liu Wen, and the results were still the same. Your husband is infertile at all,” Yuan Shasha continued to remind her.

At this moment, Xiao Lili seemed to be on the verge of collapse, breathing heavily, but suddenly, she let out a chuckle:
"Those quacks are talking nonsense. How could this be? How could my husband be infertile?"

Touching her belly, Xiao Lili continued, "The child in my belly is my husband's, there's no mistake about that."

"I guess the doctor was just teasing my husband; he was probably just trying to be funny."

As she spoke, tears streamed down Xiao Lili's face, and she seemed to be speaking weakly and listlessly.

Gu Chen slammed his hand on the table and shouted angrily, "Xiao Lili, that's enough! We brought you here to cooperate with the investigation so that you would tell the truth, not to spout nonsense."

"All the evidence now proves that your husband is infertile, so how could this child be his?"

“You’ve been deceiving your husband from the very beginning. In reality, this child is yours with someone else, am I right?”

As soon as Gu Chen finished speaking, Xiao Lili had already lowered her head, and tears the size of beans fell to the ground one by one.

Xiao Lili also started sobbing.
