Throne of Radiance

Chapter 16 Interlude II

"Miss Tian Yin, on the morning of June 6th, did you go to Liji Fruit and Vegetable Store with the deceased Gu Fangyou?"

"...June 6th?... I remembered that it was Saturday, and it happened that we were going back to the old town—my father would take me back to visit my grandparents every weekend. We passed by the fruit and vegetable store and we bought some fruit."

"Do you remember what happened at that time?"

"Ah, I don't quite remember... you mean?"

"20170309 Xihe, do you still have any memory?"

"……what is that?"

"According to the criminal suspect Liu Quan, who is the owner Zhang of Liji Vegetable and Fruit Shop, it was inconvenient for Gu Fangyou to hold the fruit at that time, so you used his mobile phone to scan the code to pay. As a result, you slipped your hand and clicked into the memo interface. The content of a memo. Liu Quan was next to you at the time, and he just saw the beginning of this memo from his perspective."

The dazed girl finally showed an expression of enlightenment, and said while recalling: "Oh, this is it. I remembered! It seems that I accidentally clicked into the memo when I checked out, but I was too hasty when I exited , almost dropped the phone on the ground. Fortunately, Dad didn’t seem to notice it at the time.”

The girl showed a look of slowly remembering.

He asked again, "Does this matter have anything to do with Dad's car accident?"

"It does have something to do with it. It can only be said that Liu Quan is really careful and ruthless..."

"March 2017, 3, Xihe County. This was the time and place where Liu Quan committed the murder. He was deeply impressed. He has never forgotten it in the past seven years since he fled."

——So, when he accidentally saw the beginning of this memo, he immediately became alert.

Then, when he paid attention, he found that Gu Fangyou in the store had been quietly observing his every move, as if he was confirming something, his eyes were full of scrutiny and suspicion.

He found that Gu Fangyou didn't even carefully select the fruits he just bought in the bag, and there were obviously a few that looked small and sour—obviously, buying fruits was just a pretense.

Having said that, the policeman paused.

"After a few days, he discovered that Gu Fangyou, who was supposed to go to school, stayed in the old town to accompany his parents, and often observed him secretly..."

Whether it's having breakfast at a different table in the shop early, meeting you on the road, or Gu Fangyou going to the fruit and vegetable store to buy vegetables, as long as you pay attention, you will find that Mr. Gu, who should have nothing to do with him, can't help but use unfriendly words. He looked at him as if watching some hidden criminal.

This feeling made Liu Quan extremely uncomfortable.

"——these were all explained by Liu Quan himself afterwards. According to his recollection, there are still many such details."

Having said that, the policeman took a sip from his water glass.

As the details piled up, Liu Quan relied on his anti-reconnaissance awareness to conclude that Gu Fangyou probably found out the case back then, and suspected that he was the fugitive, but he was not completely sure, so he was secretly observing him—this made Liu All moved to kill the heart!

"Time is running out. Before Gu Fangyou confirmed his identity and reported it to the police station, he took the first step."

"It turned out to be like this..."

Tian Yin murmured, showing an incredulous expression.

In the eyes of police officers with rich experience in solving crimes, her shock and understanding at this time is definitely not a disguise.

Through the comparison of the testimonies of both parties, it was proved that Liu Quan was not lying, and the police completely restored the whole incident.

——Gu Fangyou discovered Liu Quan's identity due to unknown reasons, and secretly observed and investigated.Unexpectedly, the memo on the mobile phone accidentally exposed his thoughts, which made Liu Quan take precautions, and instead killed him first.

It was dusk when Tian Yin walked out of the gate of the police station.

She stood there quietly, looking up at the sky.

A ray of glow hung in the dim sky, half of the sky sank into darkness, and half of the sky was illuminated by the glow.

"Miss Tian Yin, please wait!"

A voice came from behind, and someone caught up with her.

Tian Yin turned around and recognized the person: "Officer Li, what else do you need?"

Li Fufeng looked at her with complicated eyes, but his tone of voice was very frank: "I just have some doubts about the case. After all, this case is too coincidental."

He counted casually: "Gu Fangyou has obviously suspected Liu Quan's identity, and he should have been more on guard against him, but the memo on the phone was not kept secret, and it happened to be seen by Liu Quan, and it happened to be the one that most likely aroused Liu Quan's alert However, Gu Fangyou himself did not know that he had been exposed, and was killed by Liu Quan without vigilance... All the coincidences are like a well-woven story, which makes people unbelievable."

Tian Yin frowned: "So, what do you mean?"

"I just suddenly had a wild guess."

"If Gu Fangyou had never doubted Liu Quan's identity from the beginning to the end, he would naturally not be wary of him."

"And there is someone who neither party will suspect."

"She can easily add to Gu Fangyou's mobile phone memo; Gu Fangyou trusts her enough, she can influence Gu Fangyou's thoughts, speak ill of Liu Quan in front of Gu Fangyou, let Gu Fangyou look at him as a bad person; she can also just At this time, let Liu Quan discover that the item added to the memorandum can easily cause misunderstandings between the two parties... All this is very simple for her."

Li Fufeng said every word, his eyes fixed on Tian Yin, examining her every expression.

Tian Yin said "ah": "I didn't expect Officer Li to have such wild guesses. It makes sense."

"For example, if I tell my father that the 'Boss Zhang' has been harassing me and has been harassing me, and then convince my father to observe carefully for a while, my father will definitely believe me and observe secretly, maybe even want to secretly Find the opponent's handle to deal with him."

"Well, I can easily add content to the memo on Dad's mobile phone, and then deliberately show it to Liu Quan..."

"If you think about it this way, it's really easy to cause misunderstandings, making him think that Dad is doubting his real identity."

"—Of course, this is impossible."

She sighed and shook her head: "Who would have thought that Boss Zhang would be a wanted criminal? It's even more impossible to think that an ordinary memo would have such an important meaning. If I had known this earlier, maybe Dad wouldn't..."

Having said this, Tian Yin looked sad.

"You really don't know. But what if the person who guides everything behind the scenes knows? He knows Liu Quan's identity, he knows Liu Quan's character, and he knows that once the memo is shown in front of him, it will arouse Liu Quan's vigilance and suspicion. Knowing that Gu Fangyou only dared to observe in secret, looking for Liu Quan's excuses, and dared not confront him face to face... He knows how to guide everything step by step to the direction he wants."

"Ah?" Tian Yin opened her mouth wide in surprise, looking at Li Fufeng with a serious expression, as if she had heard some ridiculous joke that was too incomprehensible, "I thought we were just making a few random assumptions. Unfounded guesses really suspect that I did something, right? Listening to the story you told is like listening to a mystery novel. Even the big villain who manipulates everything behind the scenes has come out!"

She shook her head funny, looking helpless.

"That's right, without evidence." Li Fufeng nodded, "Just treat me as a random nonsense, and spread your thinking."

Tian Yin smiled calmly, with a kind of maturity beyond her age: "Where, this is the performance of Officer Li's conscientiousness. For this case, you have bothered!" She looked at the sky, "But time is not enough. It's too early, if I stay here, my grandparents will worry, so I should go back."

She nodded to Li Fufeng, turned and left.

Li Fufeng's voice suddenly came from behind.

"On June 6, three days after the car accident, you remitted 20 yuan to an unknown account registered overseas."

"You call that man—doctor."
