Chapter 134: Homicide Case
After nearly two hours of answering questions, Fang Ya and Shao Xiang walked out of the interrogation room.
“Um, officer, can I see my son?” Shao Xiang begged one of the officers.
The officer looked at Shao Xiang somewhat sheepishly, then turned to another person for help.
The other officer glanced at Shao Xiang and Fang Ya, then said, “Not yet.”
Shao Xiang put down her hands in disappointment.
Fang Ya held Shao Xiang gently, afraid that she would fall to the ground.
The two of them rested for a while in the police station before Fang Ya called Uncle Chen.
Uncle Chen quickly picked them up.
It was almost 10 o’clock at night when they got home.
Fang Ya was afraid that Shao Xiang was worried and would not be able to sleep, so she did not go to pick up the two children. Instead, she accompanied Shao Xiang to sit in her room for a while.
Shao Xiang held Fang Ya’s hand tightly the whole time. Her face was full of worry. “Do you think he’ll be okay?”
Fang Ya shook her head and said, “He’ll be fine! He’s not that kind of person!”
“But…” Shao Xiang wanted to say something, but she did not know where to begin.
Fang Ya comforted Shao Xiang patiently, “Don’t worry too much. I’ll get He Feng to go and see what’s going on tomorrow.”
Shao Xiang felt uneasy and could not fall asleep no matter what.
Fang Ya knew that Shao Xiang was worried, so she picked up her phone and called He Feng.
He Feng finally had made some progress because he was working on the case overnight, so he took the opportunity to visit Nie Jun in the hospital while he was resting.
Just as the two of them were talking about Fang Ya, Fang Ya’s call came.
He Feng was surprised and immediately picked up the call. “Hello, Fang Ya?”
Nie Jun looked at He Feng’s flustered look and could not help but chuckle silently.
Fang Ya briefly told He Feng about Wu Wei’s arrest, and He Feng’s expression gradually became grave.
After hanging up the phone, Nie Jun looked at He Feng from the side. “What happened?”
He Feng thought for a moment and said, “Fang Ya’s brother was arrested.”
“Is it related to the murder case that you guys were talking about just now?” Nie Jun heard portions from He Feng’s side of the conversation and surmised.
He Feng nodded and said, “Yes! Moreover, it’s quite a messy case.
“Whatever the case, from what little I know of Wu Wei, he wouldn’t do such a thing,” He Feng said with a frown.
He Feng knew that he should not judge hastily. This would be very disadvantageous for the investigation of the case.
Although Wu Wei had a bad temper, he had always been a person with a loud bark but a small bite.
If someone was panting louder than him, he would be cowed.
He would never do something like this!
In other words, someone was probably trying to frame Wu Wei!
However, what was the use of framing him?
Who had he offended this time?
The more He Feng thought about it, the more troubled he became.
He Feng picked up his phone and called Li Tong.
“Brother Feng, what’s the matter?” Li Tong was busy organizing his thoughts on the case. When he saw He Feng’s call, he thought there had been new developments.
He Feng briefly explained Wu Wei’s situation and said, “Find out which team is currently working on this case and get a rough idea on the situation.”
“I think I just saw team two take this case away,” Li Tong said as he shouted at the colleague beside him, “Xiao Feng, did your team just take a homicide case?”
Li Tong took the phone away from his face and asked his colleague a few questions, then immediately turned back to answer He Feng.
He Feng frowned even more when he heard Li Tong’s words.
Seeing He Feng hang up the phone, Nie Jun asked, “Who was the victim?”
He Feng looked at the simple record on the paper and said, “The deceased, Li Ming, was a colleague of Wu Wei. It was said that the two of them were not familiar with each other.
“He was beaten to death on his way home.” He Feng gave a rough description of the situation.
“Crime of passion?” Nie Jun thought for a moment and asked.
He Feng shook his head. “Chief Nie, I want to go back to the team to take a look.”
Nie Jun waved his hand and said, “Go quickly!”
“I’ll send someone over as soon as possible!” He Feng said as he put on his clothes.
“Don’t worry! It will be fine!” Nie Jun waved his hand again and urged He Feng to leave quickly.
