Gene Fusion System: Crime Hunter-Chapter 754 - 371: Concealing the Truth? Burning One’s Boats

"So you used to work at the Wisdom Star Training Center?"

Luo Fei was direct.

He cut straight to the chase.

After all, the other party already knew that he was here to investigate an old case.

Luo Fei saw no need to hide anything.

Watching the other's somewhat suspicious gaze.

Song Wentao neither confirmed nor denied.

"That's right, officers. Actually, just a few days ago, I saw the news about Lotus Manor."

"Ever since I heard that many children's remains were found there, I've been guessing that the truth of back then wouldn't stay hidden."

Song Wentao's face was full of complex emotions.

His forehead breaking out in a cold sweat.

Clearly, he knew something.

"Boss, three meal sets for each of us."

Only upon hearing Luo Fei's words.

The boss was a bit surprised.

"Huh?"

Looking at him, stunned, almost unable to speak.

Luo Fei neither confirmed nor denied.

"Boss, we haven't really eaten since this morning, how about you get us something to eat first, and we chat while eating?"

"Alright, alright, you wait here, I'll go right away."

The boss said, wiping his hands with an apron, and hurriedly went to prepare the meals.

As they watched his leaving figure.

Su Jianfan was still a bit worried.

"Leader Luo, why didn't you just bring him in for questioning?"

"Yeah, what if he's worried about getting caught by the police and just runs off later?"

Looking at Han Tiesheng and the others, they were somewhat surprised.

Luo Fei just smiled.

"If this boss wanted to run, why bother locking the door, he should've just run when he reached the door."

"And besides, that very action suggests that someone has likely been watching him irregularly, doesn't it? If we bring him directly to the police, it might make things more complicated."

Luo Fei's analysis was clearly considering Song Wentao's perspective.

He also hoped to protect witnesses, so informants wouldn't face life-threatening danger.

Doing his best to ensure their safety.

This kind of thoughtful consideration made Su Jianfan and Han Tiesheng respect him.

"Leader Luo, you're really impressive."

"This kind of attention to detail is something we can't even dream of matching."

Just as they were talking.

Luo Fei received a call from Li Yu.

"Leader Luo, we just went to Song Meilan's house and found some evidence, I'll send it to your phone shortly."

Li Yu's voice was crisp as spring water, pleasant to hear.

But Luo Fei could tell that Li Yu seemed a bit embarrassed.

"Li Yu, what's wrong? I feel like there's something off in your voice."

"Leader Luo, just now, at Song Meilan's house, we found that while she wasn't home, someone seemed to have broken in and stolen several hundred thousand in cash from her safe."

Upon hearing this news.

Luo Fei couldn't help but twitch his mouth.

"Several hundred thousand in cash, why keep it at home and not the bank?"

Luo Fei was genuinely puzzled.

Most people would keep money in the bank rather than leaving it at home.

Li Yu sighed.

"Leader Luo, apparently this elder sister never trusted banks and was quite a miser."

"So for safety, she kept the money hidden under her bed at home, but this time she didn't expect it would be stolen."

Furthermore, she also said.

Even the security in the community hadn't seen anyone leave with a suitcase.

The thief must have driven out of the underground parking lot.

But strangely, they already consulted the community security and checked surveillance footage, and didn't see any suspicious individuals...

But upon hearing Li Yu's words.

Luo Fei chuckled coldly.

"Li Yu, that woman's simply lying without a thought. Arrest her immediately." 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Upon hearing Luo Fei say this.

Song Meilan, who was beside them, crying uncontrollably as if boiling water, was shocked silly, her face turning pale instantly.

"Officer, I haven't done anything wrong, why are you arresting me?"

Song Meilan looked quite fearful and confused.

Luo Fei chuckled coldly.

"Sister Song, hundreds of thousands in cash would need at least a suitcase."

"If someone you don't know truly broke into your home in broad daylight and left carrying such a large suitcase. Wouldn't the community security notice?"

"Even if the security didn't see, the nearby road surveillance would surely capture the traces of intruders entering and leaving your home. But we checked several intersections around and didn't see any suspicious person you mentioned or any vehicle carrying items leaving. Are you still claiming you're not lying?"

Luo Fei genuinely found this elder's words amusing.

Full of logical flaws, unable to withstand scrutiny.

And predictably.

After Luo Fei spoke.

The elder shivered.

"No, Leader Luo, there's too much money for me to carry alone, I went to the police station this morning and haven't been home since."

"I didn't know you found Zhang Chengfeng's body, how could I possibly move the money in advance!"

Even though she said this.

Luo Fei still didn't believe her.

"Song Meilan, if I were you, I'd confess honestly, where did your money really go?"
