Chapter 867
There was obvious impatience.
Zheng Guorong felt frustrated, but could only sigh helplessly.
After a while...
At the entrance of the forensic identification center.
With the arrival of Su Jianfan.
He couldn't help but say to Luo Fei with some pride,
"Mr. Luo, you have no idea how ugly my dad's expression was when he was on the phone just now."
It was clear that Su Jianfan was a bit pleased.
But Luo Fei's attention was focused on the small metal box in front of him.
"Jianfan, let's get to the point."
"The method this culprit used to kill small animals is very unusual."
While on the way, Su Jianfan had a rough understanding of the case.
So he quickly agreed.
"Mr. Luo is right."
"If this person didn't want others to find this USB drive, he could have easily hidden it in the storage room on the top floor. It would be much harder to find."
"As for those cat and dog corpses, I fear it was done deliberately to draw attention, or even to frame Wu Zhicheng, making him the scapegoat as an animal abuser to better attract everyone's attention."
This analysis by Su Jianfan made Luo Fei feel somewhat reassured.
So he repeatedly nodded and said.
"Right, Su Jianfan, your analysis is spot on."
"I also believe it shows that the culprit had a specific purpose, though I still haven't figured out what the motive was."
Seeing Luo Fei look somewhat perplexed.
Without understanding why the person did this.
Su Jianfan seriously analyzed.
"Mr. Luo, do you think it's possible that this person had a grudge against Wu Zhicheng and wanted to take this opportunity to deal with him? After all, if this incident were exposed, it would undoubtedly affect Wu Zhicheng's reputation."
Su Jianfan's line of thought aligned with Luo Fei's.
So he didn't dismiss it.
"Su Jianfan, I have to say, you're thinking on the same line as I am. I also considered that possibility."
"Therefore, if we are to investigate this case, we have to start with the people who have grudges against Wu Zhicheng."
"But as for the technical recovery task, I'll leave that to you."
As Luo Fei spoke, his tone was full of expectation.
Su Jianfan assured confidently.
"Mr. Luo, rest assured, I've got this covered."
With Su Jianfan agreeing,
Luo Fei couldn't help but feel a bit delighted.
"Su Jianfan, it seems you're more confident than before."
"Perhaps after this investigation, even Zheng Guorong will view you differently."
But even as Luo Fei encouraged him,
Su Jianfan hesitated a bit.
"Mr. Luo, you're joking. I think Zheng Guorong only changed his attitude towards me due to you solving two cases at once this time."
"He's just giving you face, not truly acknowledging me."
Although Su Jianfan felt a bit uncertain, even lacking confidence,
Luo Fei smiled and reassured him.
"Su Jianfan, I know you must be feeling a bit frustrated. After all, Zheng Guorong has always had some issues with his attitude toward you. But it's okay, no need to be troubled, I believe that over time, quantitative change will lead to qualitative change."
ding dong!
At this moment.
As Su Jianfan inserted the USB drive into the computer.
The computer emitted a pleasant notification sound.
"USB data has been successfully read."
This made Su Jianfan instantly excited.
"Mr. Luo, it seems this USB isn't broken!"
But when Su Jianfan opened the folder in the USB drive.
It was just a series of recordings.
Without any visuals.
...
More than an hour later.
Gu Nan was brought to the major crimes interrogation room.
"Mr. Luo, how's the investigation going? It turns out that my husband was indeed killed by Wu Zhicheng, right?"
As Luo Fei entered the room,
Gu Nan's somewhat weathered and tired face was full of expectation, even urgency.
But Luo Fei shook his head with a cold smile.
"Gu Nan, you'd better tell the truth, isn't it true that your relationship with your husband wasn't as good as you claimed?"
Such a question from Luo Fei shocked Gu Nan immensely.
"Officer Luo, why are you suddenly asking this?"
To Gu Nan, Luo Fei's question seemed a bit out of the blue.
But Luo Fei seriously said,
"Ms. Gu, I'm asking for the sake of uncovering the truth of the case."
"So if you know something, it's best to answer honestly."
As Luo Fei spoke, he gestured to Li Yu by the door.
Signaling for him to step out first.
"I can also assure you that, in this interrogation room, everything you tell me will not be known by a third person. Now you should feel at ease, right?"
This assurance from Luo Fei gave Gu Nan some peace of mind.
She also took a deep breath.
Gu Nan then told Luo Fei.
"Mr. Luo, to be honest, my relationship with my husband wasn't that good."
"It was just for the sake of our son that I never told anyone about it, as I didn't want to affect his growth."
Seeing Gu Nan looking a bit embarrassed,
Luo Fei asked.
"Ms. Gu, was your poor relationship due to Wu Zhicheng?"
"Or did something happen between you and him in the past, is that why you dislike him so much, not even wanting to see him?"
Since Luo Fei asked this way, it meant he already knew something.
Considering her husband,
Gu Nan could only honestly answer.
"Mr. Luo, you're correct."
"Actually, Wu Zhicheng pursued me in the past, but at that time, I was already with my husband, and I truly didn't like him."
"So to ensure he wouldn't pester me again, I thought of a temporary solution."
Gu Nan spoke, her tone a bit hesitant,
She also looked a bit embarrassed.
Luo Fei, however, shook his head with a smile.
"Gu Nan, you're not going to say your temporary solution was to make Boss Bai think he had cheated, in order to have him treat you better and be more dedicated, are you?"
This reasoning left Gu Nan stunned.
She immediately speculated.
Luo Fei must have some crucial evidence to make such a judgment.
So she could only answer truthfully.
"Mr. Luo, I really had no choice, especially with Wu Zhicheng's aggressive pursuit back then."
"But my husband at home was a blockhead. I hinted to him many times in every possible way."
"I told him to pay more attention, otherwise he'd end up losing everything and still counting money for others. Do you know what he said? He said that Wu Zhicheng was his brother, a good buddy, and it would be impossible for him to do anything against him."
Gu Nan was both amused and exasperated by her husband.
She didn't expect him to be so indifferent about her situation.
This left Gu Nan feeling somewhat angry and upset.
So in the end, to ensure she wouldn't be deceived by Wu Zhicheng,
Gu Nan resorted to this method.
But hearing Gu Nan's explanation,
Luo Fei couldn't help but find it a bit amusing, shaking his head.
"Ms. Gu, haven't you considered that what you did may have been the catalyst that made the conflict between Wu Zhicheng and your husband irreconcilable?"
"Also, your husband found out about your actions, which might have led him to make rash decisions, even framing Wu Zhicheng?"
The words from Luo Fei left Gu Nan a bit confused.
"Mr. Luo, what do you mean?"
"Hold on, I'm a bit dazed."
Seeing Gu Nan's bewilderment,
Seemingly surprised by her own words.
Luo Fei very seriously said,
"Ms. Gu, you didn't hear wrong. I'm saying the cat and dog corpses were precisely placed on the top floor of this entertainment venue by your husband to frame Wu Zhicheng."
"To make him bear a bad reputation."
This analysis made Gu Nan think she misheard.
She opened her mouth.
But was speechless for a while.
"Mr. Luo, isn't that impossible?"
After a while,
Gu Nan looked at Luo Fei with some doubt.
Her face was full of disbelief.
