Hong Kong Film: Night Cop

Chapter 552 Nephew Scams Uncle?
Upon arriving at Inspector Cheung's office, Leung Siu-yau told him the results of the investigation, and then said directly, "Inspector Cheung, the case is at a critical stage now. I hope you can apply to the court for a search warrant to allow us to conduct a live evidence collection for Mo Wai-to."

Inspector Cheung put down his pen and said seriously, "Xiao Rou, it's not that I don't believe you. According to the forensic report, Mo Weitu is a well-known philanthropist in Hong Kong. He is a prominent figure in Hong Kong with extensive connections and is backed by several major law firms in Hong Kong."

The straightforward Liang Xiaorou said, "Zhang sir, are you afraid that if we can't convict him, he will turn around and accuse us? But does having money and status give people special privileges to do whatever they want?"

"No, no matter how rich or powerful a person is, we Hong Kong police will treat everyone equally. The biggest problem now is that the court may not approve our police investigation of a philanthropist, and it is easy to alert the suspect."

"Here's what we'll do! Tell your subordinates to be patient, work hard, and gather as much evidence as possible, preferably direct evidence. It's not too late to apply for a search warrant then."

"YESSIR."

Liang Xiaorou looked disappointed when she heard her boss refuse.

"No, Madam, it's clearly Mok Cheuk-ho's second uncle, Mok Wai-to, now. So why didn't Inspector Cheung agree to apply for a search warrant to get his DNA? Really?"

Back at the Serious Crimes Unit, Leung Siu-yau relayed Inspector Cheung's message to her subordinates, and Shen Hung immediately began to complain.

"Zhang Sir is too cautious. He doesn't want to take any risks by offending those rich and powerful people," Ling Xinyi mocked.

This time, it was his cousin who got into trouble. As a relative involved in the case, he shouldn't interfere.

However, he was also the one who got the angrier when he heard about this.

"Just because this person is rich and powerful, and has a whole legal team backing him up, does that mean we can't catch him?" Cheng Weisheng retorted.

“How can this be acceptable?” said another member of the Major Crimes Unit.

“It’s not about money and status now. Maybe Inspector Zhang has his reasons. He doesn’t want to alert the enemy. We need to find enough evidence as soon as possible before we can take action.”

"After all, Inspector Zhang had helped her out," Liang Xiaorou retorted.

“Madam, investigating Mo Weitu is so difficult, why don’t we find someone to help us?” Ling Xinyi suddenly said.

Looking for help?

Upon hearing this, Shen Xiong and the others immediately thought of Li Fei and couldn't help but look at Liang Xiaorou.

Of all the members of the Major Crimes Unit, only Madam and Li Fei had the best relationship, and Mo Zhuohao had already revealed what happened between her and Li Fei that night.

Liang Xiaorou was exasperated; she understood why all her subordinates were looking at her.

"I'll make a call."

Under the expectant gazes of her many subordinates, Liang Xiaorou stood up and spoke.

Afterwards, he went back to his office alone to make a phone call.

A moment later, Liang Xiaorou came out, her face stern, and said, "He'll be here in five minutes."

"Five minutes? That's fast. Yau Ma Tei Police Station is still quite a distance from West Kowloon," Cheng Wai-shing exclaimed in surprise.

"Perhaps Inspector Li is nearby?"

After Shen Xiong finished speaking, he smiled and looked at his superior. The others understood what he meant and looked over, noticing that Madam's face seemed a little red.

Li Fei arrived in five minutes as promised, without being late at all.

Hello.

"give you."

After greeting Shen Xiong and the others, he handed a gift box to Liang Xiaorou.

Ling Xinyi ran up behind Liang Xiaorou and asked in surprise, "Li sir, what gift did you buy for Madam?"

"I just bought a gemstone necklace at a nearby jewelry store." Since everyone already knew about his relationship with Liang Xiaorou, he spoke frankly and openly.

He had given the gemstone necklace to Amei and others, so he certainly wouldn't forget his own girlfriend.

He had given the gift to Jiang Hong and the others a few days earlier; Liang Xiaorou was the last to receive the gemstone necklace.

Wow, how much?

Cheng Weisheng opened his mouth wide.

Those present knew Li Fei's wealth; he lived in a luxury villa and was rumored to be worth hundreds of millions!
The gemstone necklace that comes with it certainly won't be cheap.

"It's only a few hundred thousand," Li Fei said with a smile.

"Over a hundred thousand? I'm afraid I could never save that much money in my entire life," Ling Xinyi said enviously.

Although Ling Xinyi doesn't usually dress up much, as a woman, she certainly doesn't skimp on cosmetics.

Then the police force's salary wouldn't be enough for her expenses.

"He'll give it to you when you find a boyfriend," Liang Xiaorou said to the envious Ling Xinyi after carefully putting the gift box away without opening it.

“Madam, with her personality, how could anyone possibly be interested in her?” Shen Xiong joked.

"You're asking for it." Ling Xinyi gestured.

"Alright, stop fooling around. Fei, now that you're here, let's talk about the case first, and you can give me your opinion," Liang Xiaorou said, stopping Ling Xinyi from chasing after Shen Xiong.

Everyone sat down around the round table.

Liang Xiaorou explained the difficulties she was currently facing.

Li Fei listened silently; it was no different from the original plot.

So, is Mo Zhuohao going to die next?

Once Mo Zhuohao dies, Mo Weitu, heartbroken and desperate, might turn himself in. There would be no need for any investigation; the case could be solved without him even having to do anything.

But he certainly couldn't tell anyone.

After Liang Xiaorou finished speaking, seeing everyone looking at him, Li Fei composed himself and said, "From what I know, Mo Weitu is a gentleman. If he's a gentleman, then he wouldn't have drugged and raped Ella..."

“Wait, Li Sir, do you mean Mo Weitu isn’t a culprit?” Cheng Weisheng interrupted.

According to the forensic report, all the clues now point to Mo Weitu, and Li Fei says he is not a suspect. How is that possible?
"Let me finish speaking first. Actually, I have another theory about this case," Li Fei said seriously.

Liang Xiaorou and the others didn't interrupt, and Li Fei continued, "The room where the mystery occurred was where Mo Zhuohao lived for a long time, so why would Mo Weitu drug and rape Ella there? I have a very interesting speculation about this, which is that Mo Zhuohao tricked Mo Weitu."

"Nephew betraying uncle?"

Shen Xiong and the others were all surprised.

"That's right. Mo Zhuohao is incredibly audacious. He's not even afraid of the police. Coupled with Mo Weitu's doting on him, it's not surprising that he would do anything."

"That night, Mo Zhuohao took Ella back to the hotel after drugging her, but before he could assault her, his uncle Mo Weitu came to find him... I don't know what Mo Zhuohao was thinking at the time, but he must have drugged his uncle, Mo Weitu, and then sent him to Ella's bed... You should know what happened next. Is this speculation reasonable?"

Li Fei, combining the plot with his own speculations, recounted the events of the case to everyone.

In the original drama, Mo Zhuohao said he wanted to invest in a movie and asked her to be the female lead, so he coaxed Ella to have a drink with him.

When Ella went to the restroom, Mo Zhuohao used the same trick again, putting drugs in Ella's drink. After drinking it, Ella lost consciousness.
