did not meet tonight

Chapter 23 Obvious cover-up

After listening to her narration, Xiao Yucai asked: "Ms. Qiao suspects that they deliberately want to use cats to lure you away, and then try to find a way to break into the house?"

"I'm not sure about this, but they obviously have other plans, otherwise the cat wouldn't have been following me." Joan Ann said tactfully, "You know, I'm a public figure, and every move I make will become the focus of the news media. If they deliberately follow me to take photos secretly, it will have a great impact on my reputation."

"But according to the inspection, they didn't find any photos of Ms. Qiao in their mobile phones." Xiao Yu said.Lawyer Li who was sitting next to him said, "Deleting photos is not such a complicated operation. I believe the police officer will make a fair judgment."

He was obviously reminding Xiao Yu not to speak for the defendant. Xiao Yu smiled slightly and asked, "Then, Miss Qiao, how are you sure they are secretly filming your private life?"

"When they saw me, they obviously had a guilty attitude. They wanted to run away after seeing the security guard. Doesn't it mean that they have ghosts in their hearts?" Qiao Anan replied proudly.

"So, the so-called burglary, or stalking and secretly filming are just Miss Qiao's guesses, and there is no real evidence." Xiao Yu didn't ask directly, but gradually brought her into the topic.Lawyer Li couldn't sit still anymore, and interjected: "My client is a victim of this incident, and I ask Mr. Police Officer not to speculate."

Xiao Yu nodded, still with a smile on his face: "Then let's change the question. Did Ms. Qiao find the cat first, or the defendant first?"

"Of course it's a cat! It's been standing outside the window and barking at me, and its eyes are still shining, which is very scary." Qiao Anan said, "I pulled the curtains up and ignored it, and I accidentally heard voices outside. When I opened the door I saw them slinking around in front of my house."

"Miss Qiao drew the curtains because she was afraid of a cat, but went out to check after hearing someone talking. It seems unreasonable. Why?" Xiao Yu looked at her with a cold light in his eyes.

Qiao An'an obviously didn't expect him to ask such a question, he was taken aback, and looked at Lawyer Li for help.Lawyer Li said seriously: "Mr. Police Officer, my client has the right to refuse to answer questions that are not related to the case."

Xiao Yu smiled and said, "Lawyer Li, I'm a policeman. All I need to do is to understand all the details of the case so that I can make a correct judgment. If Ms. Qiao is inconvenient, I can ask Lawyer Li to answer for me."

Lawyer Li said with a serious expression: "When people are in fear, they will naturally do things beyond common sense. As a victim of the case, it is understandable for my client to go out and check on the premise of confirming his own safety."

"Lawyer Li means that Ms. Qiao thinks a cat will pose a danger to her, but those two people don't?" Xiao Yumet asked.Lawyer Li's face froze, and he barely maintained his composure and said, "I'm just stating a certain possibility, please don't misinterpret what I mean, Mr. Police Officer."

Xiao Yu's face was calm, and he still maintained his proper demeanor: "I want to ask Miss Qiao again, has she ever had any shadows about cats?"

Probably after hearing a few words from Lawyer Li, Qiao An'an became more confident: "I just hate cats."

"According to the defendant's confession, Miss Qiao mentioned an incident three years ago, is it also related to this incident?" Xiao Yu asked in a formulaic tone.

Qiao An'an's expression changed, and he retorted: "I never said that they are spreading rumors and want to exonerate themselves!"

Lawyer Li said in a warning tone: "Mr. Police Officer, please stop guessing my client at will."

Jiang Muyu, who hadn't spoken all the time, obviously couldn't bear it anymore, and said: "This must be a hoax. An'an was participating in the special training organized by the company three years ago, and he didn't know them at all!"

Xiao Yu asked alertly, "Special training? What do you mean?"

Qiao Anan explained before Jiang Muyu: "It is a talent training organized by the company to better improve itself. This is very common in entertainment companies. Mr. Police Officer is not an insider, so I don't know."

Jiang Muyu nodded in agreement. Although he knew she was deliberately concealing it, Xiao Yu didn't press on: "I understand Miss Qiao's meaning. Judging from the testimony of both parties and the situation at the scene, this should be a misunderstanding."

"You haven't gone through judicial procedures, how can you conclude that it was a misunderstanding?" Joan Ann couldn't help getting excited, "They obviously violated my rights of freedom and reputation, I must sue them!"

"This is Ms. Qiao's right, but the law pays attention to evidence. Based on a few guesses, I believe that the judiciary cannot accept Ms. Qiao's claim." Xiao Yu said unhurriedly, "Lawyer Li, do you think I Is there any reason?"

Lawyer Li said: "It is the responsibility of the police to collect evidence, not for the parties to do it themselves!"

Xiao Yu smiled slightly and said, "As I said just now, based on the clues collected so far, the police concluded that it was a misunderstanding caused by poor communication between the two parties."

"You're obviously taking sides with them!" Joan Ann couldn't hold back his face, and said angrily, "I saw them standing sneakily at my door with my own eyes, what evidence do I need!"

"But as far as I know, the place where they are standing seems to be a public corridor under the jurisdiction of the property, and there are residents on the left and right. Why is Ms. Qiao sure that their target is you, just because of that cat?" Xiao Yu asked.

Qiao Anan was stunned and couldn't answer. Attorney Li saw this and said: "Miss Qiao is a public figure. She has been harassed by paparazzi or fans many times. Compared with ordinary people, she is of course more likely. "

"So up to now, these are all speculations without substantial evidence, and there is no way to deal with them for the time being." Xiao Yu smiled and said, "Thank you, Ms. Qiao, for cooperating with our investigation today. If you have any new clues , please contact us in time."

Qiao Anan held back her anger and wanted to refute. Lawyer Li signaled her not to speak with his eyes. He stood up and handed his business card to Xiao Yu, saying: "If there is any new progress in the investigation, please contact me directly. Speaking on behalf of Miss Joe."

Qiao Anan wanted to say something else, Jiang Muyu pulled her arm, and said in a low voice: "Anan, this is the police station, pay attention to the influence."

Xiao Yu pretended not to hear what they said, and asked casually: "By the way, there is something I want to ask Ms. Qiao. There have been two murders in Yicheng recently. Both of the deceased were artists under Baoguang Media. I don't know if Ms. Qiao knew them." they?"

Qiao An'an's face changed drastically, and he grabbed the bag on the table and said: "The company signs so many artists every year, even if I have seen it a few times, I don't have any impression. I am very busy. Please contact my lawyer if you have anything to do." After finishing speaking, She opened the door of the interrogation room straight away, and left proudly.Gao Zhishang walked in from the door, looked back at Qiao Anan who had already walked out of the office, and asked, "Captain Xiao, let her go like this?"

"I have already asked all the questions that should be asked, and she will not say anything if I continue to ask." Xiao Yu stood up and said to Yu Tong, "After sorting out the confession, send it to my office."

Yu Tong watched Xiao Yu leave, and said with admiration, "Captain Xiao is really good, he just made the lawyer speechless."

"What happened, did she recruit anything?" Gao Zhishang asked impatiently.

"I didn't say anything, but I can be sure that she must be related to the two murders." Yu Tong replied while packing his things.

"Didn't we think so early in the morning? Why did Captain Xiao bring her here just to confirm this matter?" Gao Zhishang scratched his head, really wondering, "Didn't you see the man squatting in front of the police station?" Those reporters are almost blocking the way!"

"If you can understand, wouldn't you become another Xiao team?" Yu Tong pursed his lips and smiled, "I think we will have work soon."
