Chapter 209 Clearing the Fog? An Argument? Who's Lying?

Were you nearby around 5 or 6 a.m. this morning?

Nan Shu squatted down, watching the tabby cat elegantly groom itself, and asked directly.

It glanced at her.

"Are you talking about those two people who kiss all the time, as that frog complained about?"

The tabby cat paused, then asked in return.

frog:?
"I'm a frog, not some ugly toad!"

"Oh, it doesn't matter, it's all the same. I didn't become friends with you because you're good-looking, so don't feel inferior."

The tabby cat lowered its head and nudged its friend on top of its head with its paw.

frog:……

"Yes, that's them."

Nan Shu reached out and rescued the frog from under the tabby cat's chocolate paws. Although she knew the two little guys were playing around, Nan Shu was always afraid that the tabby cat might accidentally play the frog to death.

"I saw it, it is indeed very noisy."

The tabby cat didn't mind and continued licking its paws.

Nan Shu's almond-shaped eyes lit up. "Then...did you see that boy leave?"

"uh-huh."

The tabby cat grew impatient. "What exactly do you want to ask?"

The green vertical pupil glared at Nan Shu. If it weren't for the fact that it was beholden to her because she had eaten his food, it would have run away long ago.

"After the boy left, did you hear any other noises?"

Nan Shu asked.

"What's that noise? Do you mean they're arguing?" the tabby cat tilted its head and asked.

Nan Shu was taken aback, "Arguing?"

"Yes, after that boy ran away, we heard arguing, it was really noisy."

The tabby cat sniffed with obvious disdain. "Are you done asking? I'm sleepy, I'm going to bed."

Hearing the cat's impatient tone, the frog snorted and tried to jump down to beat it up again, but Nan Shu stopped it. Nan Shu raised her hand and rubbed the tabby cat's head, revealing a bright smile.

"I've finished asking. Thank you. Your information has been a great help to me."

Feeling the soft touch on its head, the tabby cat froze for a moment, its pupils dilated, and it stood there dumbfounded. Then, it instinctively slapped out a paw, but didn't actually extend its claws.

There was a 'pop' sound.

Nan Shu's hand instantly turned red.

The tabby cat then realized what had happened, quickly withdrew its paw, looked at Nan Shu, then at the frog, and said, "I..."

The frog couldn't resist any longer and jumped down with a spring.

"What are you doing? It's just touching my head!"

The tabby cat glanced guiltily at Nan Shu.

"fine."

Nan Shu looked at the back of her hand, where there was a red mark shaped like a plum blossom, which was quite cute. She bent down to look at the two little ones and said, "Don't fight anymore. Thank you for today."

Hearing Nan Shu's words, the frog stopped what it was doing, its big, bulging eyes filled with reluctance. "Ah? You're leaving already?"

"Yes, the case isn't finished yet, but I'll be studying at this school, and I'll come visit you when I have time."

Nan Shu tapped its little head; it was smooth and slippery.

"Good."

The frog lowered its head

The tabby cat walked up to it, placed its paws on its body, glanced at Nan Shu with its green vertical pupils, and meowed at her.

"It's alright, you guys go ahead, it still has me."

Nan Shu looked at the two little ones, one big and one small, and smiled.

"it is good."

As Nan Shu was leaving, she thought that once the case was over, she would bring Tie Hanhan and the others along. They would surely be happy to meet their new friends.

……

Although the eyewitness testimony of the cat cannot be used as evidence in court, it was like clearing away the fog, bringing this Rashomon-like situation to a sudden close.

Zhao Jing is lying.

Interrogation room. "What do you mean?"

Zhao Jing sat in the interrogation chair, looking at Nan Punian across from her. Meeting his cold gaze, her aura was clearly not as imposing as before.

"I've said everything I needed to say, and you all know who the murderer is. Instead of arresting the murderer, you're interrogating me? My life is so miserable!"

As Zhao Jing spoke, she seemed to become even more emotional. She slammed her hand on the small table and cried out, "My daughter is dead! She died so tragically! What will we do now?"

Nan Punian watched Zhao Jing cry and make a scene without being moved.

"In this situation, the boss has to step in. If it were me, I probably would have flipped the table long ago."

Just a window away.

Li Feng wasn't wearing headphones. He was crunching on potato chips, watching Zhao Jing pounding on the table and crying while clutching her chest. He clicked his tongue, his tone revealing a hint of schadenfreude.

Nan Shu glanced at him, holding a bag of potato chips in her arms, and ate them slowly.

With the tabby cat's testimony, the trace evidence department staff returned to the scene again. This time, experts in trace evidence also went along. It remains to be seen whether they will make any new discoveries.

of course.

Meanwhile, Zhao Jing's interrogation was also underway.

Nan Shu had no doubt about Nan Punian's interrogation abilities; it was only a matter of time before Zhao Jing confessed.

Thinking about it, Nan Shu glanced at Li Feng again.

"Brother Li."

"What's the matter?"

Li Feng mumbled a reply while eating.

"Do you know what the South Team used to be like?" Nan Shu asked.

"before?"

Li Feng straightened his legs. "Wasn't it always like this? What's wrong?"

Nan Shu shook her head.

"nothing."

It seems that Li Feng also doesn't know what happened.

"Oh."

Li Feng scratched the back of his head, didn't think much of it, and went back to eating potato chips.

Zhao Jing cried and made a scene in the interrogation room, while Nan Punian remained silent throughout. As the scene unfolded, Zhao Jing couldn't take it anymore and glared at Nan Punian with red eyes.

"What exactly do you police officers want to do?"

Nan Punian didn't speak, but curled his fingertips and tapped the table.

The bell rings.

Nan Punian glanced at it, raised his hand, and answered it.

"Hey?"

The other party said something, and Nan Punian looked up at Zhao Jing. "Okay, I understand. Hmm... It's good that the evidence has been found. It's okay. That's enough to convict them."

hang up the phone.

Nan Punian put his phone in his pocket and then gave Zhao Jing another long look.

“I originally thought that if you could take the initiative to confess, and with a letter of understanding from your family, you could at least get a year or two off the sentence, but now it seems that you don’t need that.”

Upon hearing this, Zhao Jing's face turned pale instantly, and the muscles around her eyes twitched violently.

Immediately afterwards, she saw Nan Punian let out a heavy sigh and get up to leave.

For an instant.

Zhao Jing panicked immediately and shouted almost uncontrollably, "Wait!"

Nan Punian paused in his steps.

"me……"

Zhao Jing had completely lost her earlier arrogance. Two hours of crying and fussing seemed to have no effect, which finally made her feel fear and tension.

Back in the village, all she had to do was sit down on the ground, drag her short-lived husband out, and make a scene, and everything would be resolved, including her job as a sanitation worker and living with Yuanyuan—that's how she got it all.

But after just two hours of his one-woman show, Nan Punian hadn't said a word, leaving Zhao Jing hanging and making her realize that her 'magic weapon' seemed to have lost its effectiveness.

Before Zhao Jing could finish speaking, Nan Punian seemed impatient, walked to the door, and opened it.

Zhao Jing panicked even more, almost screaming:
"Officer! Officer! I confess! I confess!"
