Hong Kong Film: Night Cop

Chapter 619 The Angel's Secret

Is someone impersonating me to commit a crime?

Or is it Xu Lifang?
But Li Fei immediately realized something was wrong, because the arrows were not arrows for bows and arrows, but short arrows for crossbows.

This person was shot and killed with a crossbow bolt.

"Police, unauthorized personnel, do not approach."

Seeing the people around him slowly approaching, Li Fei shouted to stop them.

Li Fei inadvertently saw the woman who had bumped into Liang Xiaorou standing nearby, which made him even more suspicious.

At this moment, Shen Xiong and the others, who had heard the commotion, also rushed over.

Upon seeing the dead body on the ground, Shen Xiong immediately ordered his men to disperse the surrounding onlookers. After all, this was the crime scene, and if people came over, they would definitely disturb the scene.

"Li sir, what do we do now?"

Shen Xiong asked Li Fei.

They never expected that a vacation to Lobster Bay would lead to a murder.

Li Fei did not answer, but instead observed the surrounding situation.

The surroundings were open and there were no obstructions, so if the murderer were to commit the crime, someone would definitely see it.

But no one saw it, which means the murderer shot the victim with a crossbow bolt from a very safe place where no one was around.

Safe place!

A place where nobody goes!

Li Fei couldn't help but look at the public toilet not far away.

After calculating the distance between the deceased and the public toilet, Li Fei instantly realized that the murderer shot the crossbow bolt from the public toilet, killing the person.

So the murderer...

Li Fei couldn't help but look at the woman.

The woman who bumped into Liang Xiaorou while rushing out of the women's restroom had clearly done something she felt guilty about.

In other words, there is a very high probability that this woman is the murderer.

Li Fei was about to have Shen Xiong arrest the woman.

But then Shen Xiong exclaimed in surprise, "The deceased was actually Hu Sen, a reporter specializing in inside stories."

"You know him?" Li Fei asked in surprise.

“I know him. He already has a criminal record with the police. I heard he specializes in spying on celebrities’ privacy and then extorting money from them,” Shen Xiong said sarcastically.

“That bastard is utterly despicable. He deserved to be killed here,” Ling Xinyi said.

Clearly, Shen Xiong and she didn't have a good impression of this man named Hu Sen.

"what happened?"

Liang Xiaorou came over after she finished using the restroom.

"Madam, there's been a murder." Cheng Weisheng said with a gloomy expression.

"Did you call the police?"

The person who had just finished making a phone call said, "I've already called the police, and my colleagues from the nearby police station will be here soon."

Lobster Bay is not within the West Kowloon Police Station's jurisdiction, so any murders there must be reported to the police.

"Ah Fei, what are you thinking about?"

Seeing Li Fei deep in thought, Liang Xiaorou nudged him and asked.

"No, right, I forgot, I need to go to the restroom."

After Li Fei finished speaking, he turned and walked towards the restroom.

As for wanting Shen Xiong to capture the woman, Li Fei had already given up on that idea. Hearing Shen Xiong introduce the reporter reminded Li Fei of a TV series he'd watched in his previous life.

The second case in "Detective Investigation Files": The Angel's Secret.

The case of Zhou Jinjie and Li Wenfang, which Li Fei and his team solved earlier, was the first case in "Detective Investigation Files".

He never expected that he would encounter two cases from the same TV series in a row.

If Li Fei wasn't mistaken, the panicked woman he had just seen was none other than Zhong Ke'er, the angel from "The Secret of Angels".

In the story, Chung Ho-yee is a cashier at the Yau Ma Tei Police Station canteen. She is pure and lovely and has a crush on Detective Lee Chung-yee.

How could such a pure and lovely girl possibly kill Hu Sen?
This incident was actually caused by Hu Sen extorting Zhong Ke'er's sister, Zhong Xue'er.

Zhong Xueer married a wealthy young master and became pregnant. Under normal circumstances, Zhong Xueer should be very happy, after all, she has a rich husband and is about to have a child for him, but an accident happened.

It turns out that Zhong Xueer accidentally ingested medication bought by Zhong Keer during her pregnancy, which caused fetal malformation, marriage breakdown, and the deformed child was placed in the 'Angel Children's Home', a special institution for children with disabilities. Zhong Keer felt extremely guilty about this.

Later, her older sister, Zhong Xueer, remarried and had a happy marriage, but was blackmailed by Hu Sen, a reporter specializing in insider information.

Because Hu Sen was insatiable, he did it again after the first time. He even tried to extort money from Zhong Ke'er and attempted to take advantage of her. Zhong Ke'er then plotted to kill Hu Sen.

It was during this incident at Lobster Bay that she hid in the women's restroom and used a crossbow bolt to shoot Hu Sen in the chest.

Before he died, Hu Sen murmured, "Angel."

The pure and kind-hearted Zhong Ke'er is just like an angel. Her sister's child with defects is fostered in the "Angel Children's Home". Hu Sen's mention of "angel" before his death is all the same to the title of this unit, "The Secret of Angels".

Although Li Fei is a policeman, he doesn't uphold so-called justice, and he feels that some people deserved to die.

If Hu Sen hadn't been so greedy and hadn't harbored inappropriate feelings for Zhong Ke'er, he wouldn't have died in vain, and Zhong Ke'er might have ended up with Li Zhongyi.

After relieving himself of the water, Li Fei returned and glanced around at the people. He noticed that 'Angel' Zhong Ke'er was no longer there; she had obviously left.

"What are you talking about?"

Seeing Liang Xiaorou and the others gathered together, talking, Li Fei asked curiously.

"Li sir, we're trying to figure out who the murderer is! Do you want to join in?" Ling Xinyi asked with a smile.

"Me? Never mind, I'll just listen from the sidelines!"

Li Fei shook his head.

Everyone knows who the murderer is, so why is Li Fei getting involved?

Seeing that Li Fei was not participating, Liang Xiaorou and the others were a little disappointed, but they continued their discussion.

“Hu Sen offended too many people. It must have been those he had blackmailed who hired an assassin to kill him,” Cheng Weisheng said, making a decapitation gesture.

"Where is the assassin?" Shen Xiong rolled his eyes.

Cheng Weisheng looked around and shook his head awkwardly, saying, "If I knew where the assassin was, I would have arrested him long ago."

"Judging from the direction Hu Sen fell and the location of the arrow wound, the assassin must have been standing in that direction."

Liang Xiaorou thought for a moment and then pointed in the direction of the public toilet.

“Madam, you’re right. Based on the distance the crossbow bolts travel, the public toilet is exactly within the effective range, and the direction is correct as well,” Shen Xiong nodded in agreement.

He had actually guessed this as well.

"Madam, didn't you go to the restroom just now? Did you see anyone in the restroom?" Ling Xinyi asked.

"No, I didn't see anyone in the women's restroom when I went in..."

At this point, Liang Xiaorou suddenly remembered something, and her expression turned serious. "A woman bumped into me at the entrance of the women's restroom earlier. I wonder if she was the murderer?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Xiong and the others' eyes lit up.

Regardless of whether the woman is the murderer or not, she is the prime suspect.

"Li sir, did you see anyone in the men's restroom?" Cheng Weisheng asked Li Fei.
