I Play Dungeons in the Police Station-Chapter 349 - 220: Crucial Evidence

Having no other option, Li Xiang had to test her.

"Even though Ding Xiang was silenced, don’t forget Zhou Xiaofeng is still in custody."

Li Xiang’s meaning was clear. He still had leverage, asking if she was nervous.

Zhao Wanting also understood what Li Xiang meant and said directly, "What do you mean? Are you suspecting that I murdered my father and then killed Ding Xiang to silence him?"

"Isn’t it that way? Not only did you kill Ding Xiang, but you also wanted to kill me. The first time at the Zhao Family, you instructed Ding Xiang to install a controller in our car. Did you think we didn’t know?"

"You’re talking nonsense. How could I do such a thing? Can you police talk without evidence?"

"You want evidence? Jiang Fei, show it to her."

Jiang Fei took out a law enforcement recorder with recorded video surveillance, clearly displaying the actions of Zhou Xiaofeng and Ding Xiang in front of Zhao Wanting.

"Both of these people are yours. How do you explain this?"

"Impossible, it’s impossible, how could this be?"

Seeing that these two indeed did something shady, Zhao Wanting couldn’t believe it. She finally understood why the maid, Zhou Xiaofeng, was criminally detained by the police.

"Zhou Xiaofeng has already confessed. She personally stole the phone from your father and implanted a Trojan in it. Wasn’t this under your instructions?"

"No, I didn’t. He was my father. What reason would I have to harm him?"

At this moment, Zhao Wanting was no longer composed and calm, shaking her head in tears as she denied it. Her emotions were clearly near breaking point. She hadn’t expected that the maid and bodyguard she brought into the family would eventually become the murderers of her father.

"The issue of inheriting Zhao Group—isn’t that a sufficient reason? Your brother Zhao Shujie is back, and he’s planning to let Zhao Shujie manage Zhao Group."

"No, no, my dad would never entrust Zhao Group to my brother, because he knows that my brother is a useless playboy. If Zhao Group were in his hands, it would eventually go bankrupt."

"Is what you’re saying true?"

Li Xiang was somewhat doubtful because Zhao Wanting’s words seemed inconsistent with what Mrs. Zhao had said.

According to Mrs. Zhao, Zhao Group would be inherited by the male heir of the Zhao Family, but Zhao Wanting said her brother was a playboy, and the chairman wouldn’t hand over the group to him.

Between those two, who is lying?

Perhaps to verify who is lying, one cannot overlook Zhao Family’s second young master.

"We understand the situation, but you have to stay at the police station for 24 hours before you can go back."

After speaking, Li Xiang ignored Zhao Wanting’s goodnight farewell.

Jiang Fei was shocked by Li Xiang’s bold move to directly detain Zhao Wanting: "Captain Li, she’s the CEO of Zhao Group now. We don’t have any evidence. Detaining her for 24 hours like this will have a significant social impact."

"Did I break any rules?"

"No."

"Then that’s it. Even if an emperor breaks the law, he will be punished just like a commoner. No exceptions."

Li Xiang glanced at the time. It was already past two in the morning. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

Since entering the case, he had been busy all day and felt tired even after adding two points of stamina, not to mention Jiang Fei and the others, who were also pushing through.

"We’ve been working hard all day. Let’s rest in the office for a while and focus tomorrow on investigating Zhao Family’s second young master."

"Yes."

The two of them only rested a bit in the office, soon falling asleep. Drowsily, Li Xiang was awakened by the sound of conversation, realizing it was already dawn.

With a new day, the special investigation team got busy again.

The time was tight, and the tasks were heavy.

They had a lot to investigate and understand.

The deeper investigation into Zhou Xiaofeng and her son continued. Li Xiang didn’t fully trust her confession.

Her social relations and the disreputable friends of her son were all within the special investigation team’s scope.

Such a large workload inevitably required a lot of police resources.

Although Ding Xiang was dead, that didn’t mean there weren’t clues to be unearthed. His social connections, and who he was closely associated with, could indirectly verify if Zhao Wanting was lying.

As for Zhao Wanting, even though she was interrogated last night, whether she lied or not could not be verified, requiring continued investigation. Also, what she said about the client contracting at midnight was abnormal.

Lastly, her brother has now been listed as a key investigation target by Li Xiang.

The morning investigation team held a case analysis meeting, compiling yesterday’s leads, and then reassigned new investigation tasks.

Those who could enter the special investigation team were naturally elites.

As the tasks were assigned, by noon, various leads gathered around Li Xiang like snowflakes.

"Captain Li, Zhou Xiaofeng’s son is named Wang Hao, the loan shark is called Yao Ji, and the financial backer is Rong Yuhui, the young master of the Rong Family. Zhao Shujie plays around in the same circle as them."

"Captain Li, one of the recent major cooperation projects with Zhao Group is a real estate project of the Rong’s, preparing to jointly develop a piece of land in the south of the city. According to the investigation, Zhao Shujie had dinner with Rong Yuhui last night."

"Captain Li, in Ding Xiang’s phone communication records, a call with Zhao Shujie was found. The most recent one was when we were on our way to the Zhao Family."
