At this moment, Xiao Chun came over with a portrait. Upon hearing that it was a suspect, Niu Qiaobao showed it to several people for identification.

"This looks a lot like Zhuang Li."

Without a doubt, the murderer is her!

"Let's go, arrest them!"

When they arrived at Zhuang Li's house, she was watering the flowers.

Niu Qiaobao and Qin Yuezheng looked at the woman opposite them. She was very tall and slender, and there was absolutely no sign of her ferocity.

"Zhuang Li, you are suspected of murdering Fan Yaodong. Please come with us to the police station."

The woman smiled and put down the kettle in her hand. "Officer, I knew you would come. Let's go."

The man was quickly taken back to the police station, where a row of police officers sat in the interrogation room.

Zhuang Li was handcuffed, but she remained calm. Before Niu Qiaobao could speak, she raised her head and said, "I killed him."

The interrogation room was silent. They had planned to use various methods to question the other party, but they didn't expect the other party to just give up.

Is it really possible for her to just admit to something that isn't that big of a case?

Even Xing Yong, who was standing behind, fell silent.

Everyone looked at Zhuang Li across from them. She showed no fear or regret, only peace.

"Zhuang Li, you need to think this through. Confessing means the deaths of three people, plus Huang Shan from the hospital. Do you know what the consequences will be?"

"I know." Zhuang Li smiled. "Those three deserved to die, they deserved to die. I killed them."

"Tell me how he was killed?"

Zhuang Li began by recounting the first case: how she tricked Peng Sihai into her home after he left his lover's house, then drugged and murdered him. She then described how she tricked Chu Lixun into going to a guesthouse, drugged him, strangled him with a belt, and then made it look like he had jumped off a building.

Finally, how did she drug Huang Shan, and then threaten Fan Yaodong to knock him unconscious on the back stairs while he was signing documents, before torturing and killing him?

The interrogation room was eerily quiet. They were incredibly busy, and cases that had yielded no leads were simply delivered to them in the open.

The clues and details all match up.

If it weren't for the murderer, they wouldn't know this so well.

Everyone gasped. Xing Yong stood up and asked, "Why?"

Zhuang Li's expression gradually shifted from calm to hatred. She sat up straight, her whole body trembling, her eyes bloodshot as she stared at the police officers in front of her. "If I said they deserved to die, would you believe me?"

The interrogation room was silent. Zhuang Li bit her lip tightly, her eyes bloodshot and filled with intense hatred. "They're devils, devils! Dying like this is too good for them!"

The table and the handcuffs on her hands made a clanging sound.

Zhuang Li's voice was a little hoarse. "Eight years ago, a fire broke out at the orphanage in Kaiping District, Tanshui City. Seven children died in the fire. Their names were Xiao Huzi, Xiao Ling, Xiao Fang, Mingming, Gangzi, Meimei, and Xiao Zhou. There were also two mothers, one named Zhuang Xiaoliu and the other named Chen Meifang."

Eight years ago, a fire broke out at an orphanage in Kaiping District.

Xing Yong knew about this case. "Wasn't that accident an accident?"

Xing Yong hadn't been transferred here yet, but during the day, he saw in the case file that it was an accidental fire.

"Accident?"

Zhuang Li gritted her teeth, "That wasn't an accident! It was deliberate, done by those four beasts!!"

"The orphanage had run out of food. It was Mother Chen and Mother Zhuang who went to the Civil Affairs Bureau of the Revolutionary Committee to apply for help. We were young then, and I thought the leaders were really kind-hearted. But no, no! Those scumbags always relied on the two mothers selling their bodies... They were threatened time and time again for that little bit of subsidy. I saw it, I saw it!"

Zhuang Li's voice choked with emotion.

The interrogation room was so quiet you could drop a pin; no one spoke, and some even had red eyes.

"I know I shouldn't say this, but every time I see that rice and noodles, I feel like a knife is stabbing me again and again. Those four people would pretend to be charitable and come over to take pictures. They are scum and devils."

"I know that to stop them I have to grow up. We are a burden to two mothers, but they are not human. They even use very young children in orphanages to test drugs."

"Every child was threatened not to tell anyone, not to tell the two mothers. The children were all very sensible and none of them said anything until Xiaohuzi fell ill. That was the first time we saw them angry. The orphanage caught fire the night they went to find the four people. I was lucky and ran out to sulk and escaped the fire. I saw them leaving the orphanage with smiles on their faces."

"Of course I'm going to kill them. Devils like them deserve to be shown their ugliest side to everyone. They deserve to die."

"Why didn't you kill him, Huang Shan?"

Zhuang Li smiled slyly, "He's a coward, he just watches without taking any action, but the poison in his body is enough to make him wish he were dead for the rest of his life."

Xing Yong looked at the woman opposite him. "Why don't you petition?"

"You think I haven't?" Zhuang Li sneered. "Over the years, I've written hundreds of documents anonymously, but they've all disappeared without a trace."

"Since no one is going to help me, I'll do it myself."

Xing Yong didn't speak, he just looked at Zhuang Li across from him. Everyone was looking at Zhuang Li, no one condemned or scolded her, only felt sorry for her.

"Officer, I'm going to the technical department to get the evidence. I'll bring it with me so we can sign and confirm it together."

Xiaochun jumped off the stool dejectedly. "I'm going too."

"Why is it that good people like Officer Qin never seem to get good rewards?"

Qin Yuezheng didn't expect Xiaochun to ask him this suddenly, and for a moment he didn't know how to answer, so he awkwardly squeezed out a sentence, "That's why we need the police."

Xiao Chun followed behind him. Qin Yuezheng said he was coming over to collect the evidence. Soon, Wang Tao came back carrying a box. "These are all the evidence we collected."

"Thank you, Xiaochun. Could you please carry this for me? I'll pick up the autopsy report while I'm at the forensic department."

Xiaochun stood at a distance, holding the box, looking at the evidence inside.

"I didn't expect this case to be solved so easily." Wang Tao stretched with a smile, while Xiao Chun stared blankly at a painting above.

"Technician Wang, who removed these shoe prints?"

Wang Tao craned his neck to look at the rubbing of the shoe print. "Oh, this one? Lu Shuang made it. She's been researching footprints lately. What's up?"

Xiaochun stared blankly at the half-rubbing of the shoe print, her mind flooded with knowledge about the human body.

wrong.

something wrong.

Xiaochun picked up the rubbing of the shoe print and said, "Technician Wang, I have something to do."

The little guy took off running, calling out, "Captain Xing, Captain Xing!"

Xing Yong looked at Xiao Chun who rushed in, "What's wrong?"

Xiao Chun held up the half-shoe print in her hand, "Captain Xing, she didn't kill him, it wasn't her, she's lying!"
