9: The murderer flattered me to death; now I can’t explain myself.Chen Hua scratched his head.

”He wasn’t exactly an accomplice; he just helped out a little.”

Holy crap.

What is this guy blathering about?

Spouting nonsense, is he? Trying to drag someone down with him because he’s doomed?

”Brother, don’t talk nonsense. Make yourself clear!”

”Officers, you can’t just take his word for it. Everything needs evidence!”

Xu Feng waved his hand, signaling Chen Hua to continue.

”Right. How did he help? Speak clearly.”

Chen Hua looked at Lin Pei with a hint of respect in his eyes.

”Brother Lin, I know my methods of harming people are child’s play in front of you.”

”My experience is also far less than yours.”

”I was truly flattered that you were willing to discuss killing techniques with me.”

”If only I had met you sooner, Brother Lin. You surely have many advanced methods; maybe then I wouldn’t have been caught.”

Lin Pei was numb.

What on earth was this thing?

Was he sent by the Monkey King to frame him?

Xu Feng and the Police Officer assisting the interrogation exchanged glances.

Just as they thought.

During the live stream, his knowledge of torture and murder was simply at his fingertips.

Based on that alone, Lin Pei must have a lot of blood on his hands.

What normal person would understand a victim’s reactions so well?

And even have precise statistics on the time of death for every single method?

Based on their years of experience solving cases, Lin Pei must be a cold-blooded murderer who killed without blinking.

Xu Feng slapped the table again, his tone serious.

”Chen Hua, get to the point!”

”I want specific details!”

Chen Hua slapped his own forehead.

”Oh, you officers should already know how he helped.”

”In the live stream room, Brother Lin and I further discussed certain killing knowledge and skills. Brother Lin helped me summarize and review everything after the fact.”

Xu Feng’s brow furrowed tightly.

”A review and summary? That’s it?”

Chen Hua nodded. ”Yes, Officer. I only met Brother Lin today.”

While the several Police Officers looked suspicious, Lin Pei breathed a sigh of relief.

This guy was finally telling some truth.

Before he could finish his sigh, he heard Chen Hua continue.

”Brother Lin, how did you get caught too?”

”Were the ones you killed discovered as well?”

Damn it.

This kid really just says whatever comes to mind.

Lin Pei almost choked on his own saliva.

”Shut up, I haven’t killed anyone!”

”Officer, where’s the physical evidence? You can’t just listen to him talk nonsense!”

Xu Feng raised his hand to interrupt him and turned to ask Chen Hua.

”Are you saying he wasn’t involved in this particular murder?”

Chen Hua replied, ”Uh, no, he wasn’t.”

”Then tell me, who did he kill? What details do you know?”

Chen Hua spread his handcuffed hands.

”I don’t know, I’m just guessing.”

”But with a solid foundation of knowledge like Brother Lin’s, he must have killed many people.”

”...”

Damn it.

Lin Pei gritted his teeth.

Truth be told, he really did have the urge to kill someone now.

The kind where he’d just step up and strangle them.

Chen Hua shrunk his neck back from Lin Pei’s glare and hurriedly sought help from Xu Feng.

”Officer, can you send me out? I’m scared...”

It wasn’t just Chen Hua; the several Police Officers in the room also felt the pressure.

With a gaze like that, who would believe he was innocent?

Seeing that nothing more useful could be squeezed out of Chen Hua, Xu Feng had him taken back next door.

Xu Feng looked coldly at Lin Pei across from him.

”You still want physical evidence?”

”You won’t shed a tear until you see the coffin, will you?”

”Fine, you wait.”

Outside the interrogation room.

Xu Feng called Zhang Tian over.

”Xiao Zhang, ask the Forensics Department if the comparison results for the fingerprints extracted from the murder scene are out yet.”

”Also, pull up all of Lin Pei’s personal files and check them word for word!”

”I don’t believe that a heinous criminal wouldn’t leave a single trace of what he’s done!”

Soon, the investigation results came out.

After comparison, the fingerprints extracted from the crime scene belonged to only one person.

That was Chen Hua!

And Lin Pei’s various records showed that there was indeed nothing wrong with him.

His grades in school were good, and he didn’t even fail many classes.

His background was of the extremely clean variety.

Zhang Tian looked hesitant.

”Captain Xu, could we have wrongly accused him?”

”This kid doesn’t seem to have any problems.”

Xu Feng’s brow was furrowed so deeply it could crush a fly.

”No, I wouldn’t be mistaken.”

”After all, I’ve been a Criminal Police Officer for decades; I’m quite a good judge of character.”

”With that aura of his—I’ve interrogated so many murderers, and not one was as fierce as him.”

”Besides, what decent person could study those killing methods and victim reactions so thoroughly every day?”

He took a breath, forcing himself to calm down.

Where exactly was the problem?

A few minutes later, Xu Feng and Zhang Tian were already sitting across from Lin Pei, starting another round of interrogation.

Not just today’s case—Xu Feng also asked Lin Pei about relevant details of recent unsolved cases.

Lin Pei was even more bewildered, but he was very cooperative.

Coincidentally, for every case, he could provide an alibi for his absence.

It made Xu Feng start to doubt himself a little.

After a moment of hesitation, he placed a document in front of him.

”Lin Pei, I advise you to confess sooner rather than later, because I already have some evidence of your crimes here.”

”You must understand that the outcome of us finding out is very different from you speaking up voluntarily.”

Lin Pei was speechless and spread his hands again.

”Officer, I really have nothing to say.”

”Can I see that ’criminal record’ or whatever it is?”

”I can explain!”

”I really haven’t done anything illegal.”

Xu Feng and Zhang Tian exchanged glances again.

This Lin Pei was truly something else.

Either they really had wrongly accused the man...

Or the person in front of them was too terrifying, with methods so skilled and seasoned that he could handle a crime scene perfectly and get away scot-free.

Xu Feng still trusted his intuition and decided to press on.

”Quibbling!”

”Let me ask you, why are you, a Young Actor, so familiar with methods of torture and murder?”

”Even the results recorded by a real murderer happen to coincide with what you said offhandedly?”

”If you haven’t done it personally, where did your precise theoretical knowledge come from?”

Lin Pei was stumped by these questions, unable to utter a word.

At the end of the day, it was all because of that bastard System.

Those crime scenes were like they were imprinted in his brain; of course he could talk about them offhandedly.

Lin Pei let out a sigh.

”Officer, I learned all of those from the news.”

”As an actor, in case I have to play a villain, I need to have enough knowledge, right?”

”Back when I was in school, I started collecting these text and video materials.”

”My experience was summarized from watching those crime scenes; I just memorized them all.”

Lin Pei’s tone was sincere.

”Besides, if I had really done those things, I wouldn’t dare say them in public.”

”Wouldn’t that be the same as exposing myself? How dangerous would that be?”

”Don’t you agree, Officers?”

Xu Feng was even more suspicious now.

”Lin Pei, what kind of place is this? You dare to bluff us?”

”In our Dragon Country’s news, any bloody image has to be pixelated.”

”And you’re telling me that the news has all sorts of murder details? And records about tools and victim reactions?”

”Lin Pei, this lie of yours isn’t clever at all.”
