Gene Fusion System: Crime Hunter

Chapter 956 - 472: Learning About the Past? Concealing the Background

In Huang Anran’s view,

at this moment, Zhu Guangming seemed somewhat mentally unstable.

She appeared a little anxious.

Her beautiful eyes were full of confusion.

Luo Fei had no choice but to comfort her.

"Miss Huang, don’t be afraid. We police will uncover the truth as soon as possible. We won’t let him pretend to be crazy here."

"But before the case is completely cleared, I’m afraid you’ll have to wait patiently for a while. Also, until we find out the truth, please try to stay in the area."

Hearing this,

Huang Anran sighed helplessly.

"I understand, officer. Don’t worry, I will follow your instructions."

Seeing her agree,

Luo Fei finally let out a small sigh of relief.

But just as she was about to leave,

Zhu Guangming in the detention center suddenly became extremely agitated.

"Chen Shufen, don’t go. Come back to me, come back!"

Seeing Zhu Guangming so agitated, with veins popping on his neck and his face flushed,

Luo Fei sighed as well.

"Li Yu, do you still think he’s pretending to be crazy?"

Luo Fei’s question left Li Yu unsure how to respond.

She could only awkwardly sigh.

"Mr. Luo, then it seems, he’s genuinely been affected rather than faking it?"

Seeing the skepticism in her expression,

as if still doubting Zhu Guangming was pretending,

Luo Fei waved the stack of evidence in his hand.

"Based on the current situation, we still need to follow the evidence provided by Miss Huang and investigate step by step."

Luo Fei spoke with calm assurance.

Li Yu didn’t ask further.

Before long,

Su Jianfan emerged from the technical department’s office.

Upon seeing him appear,

his face was full of hesitation.

Luo Fei couldn’t help but be curious.

"Su Jianfan, why do you look so worried?"

"Did the investigation hit a roadblock?"

Seeing Luo Fei’s curious gaze,

Su Jianfan quickly explained.

"Mr. Luo, it’s not that. It’s just that we just accessed the surveillance at the intersection where Chen Shufen had her incident."

"According to the traffic police there, that spot is a frequent accident zone. Including the corner of the crime scene there, since it’s near the village entrance, lacks the necessary warning signs..."

Hearing this, Luo Fei nodded in agreement.

"I understand. You’re saying, given the current situation, it looks like an accidental incident, a chance occurrence?"

"Yes."

Despite answering this way,

Su Jianfan clearly hesitated.

Obviously, in his heart, he still believed it might not be just an accident.

But due to a lack of substantial evidence,

for now, they could only temporarily conclude it as an accident.

"Jianfan, don’t worry just yet."

"I’ve decided to start the investigation based on the evidence provided by Huang Anran. Tomorrow morning, we’ll visit Zhu Guangming’s former foster family to gather information."

But upon hearing Luo Fei’s proposal,

Li Yu couldn’t help but be concerned.

"Mr. Luo, will this work? It was so many years ago when Zhu Guangming was with the foster family. Not to mention, his foster parents have passed away. Even if we go, we might come up empty-handed."

Seeing Li Yu a bit anxious,

and clearly worried that this investigation might yield no results,

Luo Fei smiled and reassured her.

"Li Yu, I understand your concerns. But it’s okay."

As Luo Fei spoke, he handed the photos he had just accessed to Li Yu.

"These are the photos I just retrieved."

"They’re from Zhu Guangming’s school days."

Following Luo Fei’s pointed finger,

Li Yu unexpectedly discovered

that Zhu Guangming and Chen Shufen were actually classmates back in school.

"So, if we can contact Zhu Guangming’s teachers and classmates, we might gather more useful clues. Determine if he genuinely has mental issues or is pretending to be crazy?"

"Exactly."

That evening, past 8 o’clock,

Luo Fei and Li Yu arrived at an old apartment building.

Looking at the rusty letters at the entrance: Teachers’ Apartments,

Li Yu and the others identified themselves to the security guard at the entrance.

"Security officer, you must know Teacher Zhang Lanyun, right?"

Upon hearing the name,

the security guard nodded vigorously.

"Of course. She was a model teacher for many decades but retired from her position at Charity High School last year due to health issues."

At this,

Li Yu and Luo Fei both nodded.

"Then please, security officer, we have some questions for Teacher Zhang Lanyun."

Seeing the anticipation on Li Yu and Luo Fei’s faces,

the security guard led them to Teacher Zhang Lanyun’s residence.

"Old Zhou, Mr. Zhou, are you home?"

"Someone’s here to see Sister Zhang."

After the security guard knocked on the door of Unit 303,

soon after, an old voice responded softly.

"Coming."

As the door opened,

they saw an elderly man wearing a yellowed shirt and reading glasses emerge.

His hair was gray, and he had a thin frame.

Luo Fei smiled and greeted him.

"Hello, sir. We’re from the Changli City Major Crimes Unit."

"We’re here to investigate the case of Zhu Guangming."

But before Luo Fei could finish speaking,

the old man smiled and shook his head.

"Zhu Guangming?"

"Ha ha, such an unfamiliar name. Come on in..."

Led by Zhou Mingwen,

Luo Fei and the others sat on the sofa.

Opposite was an old television covered with a white floral cloth.

And on the entire wall behind the television,

were photos of each batch of students taught by Zhang Lanyun.
