Don't follow the rules

"There is no side."

Chen Heng let go of Zhong Huai's fist and said loudly: "I only stand on the side I think is right."

Zhong Huai rubbed the back of his red hand. He wanted to get angry but was afraid of Chen Heng's skills. He could only grit his teeth and said: "You and my brother are old comrades who are close friends in life and death. He has been supporting you for so many years, and now you will actually help someone?" An outsider comes to slander his biological brother?!"

"I'm not slandering anyone, I'm just stopping you from hitting others, so as not to get yourself into trouble that you shouldn't have. And precisely because Zhong Wu and I are life and death friends, I want to know the real murderer even more." Chen Heng's The answer was so impeccable that Zhong Huai couldn't even find a way to refute it.

"I can't possibly kill my brother." He could only repeat this sentence dryly.

Chen Heng said lightly: "Then what are you afraid of?"

"Who said I'm afraid?"

"If you're not afraid, just cooperate with the investigation."

"Huh." Zhong Huai sat down with an annoyed look on his face.

"That's right." Ning Yao was very satisfied.

Although Chen Heng helped Ning Yao, he was not convinced by the blind detective: "If you want to ask, just ask, don't be ridiculous. We are obliged to cooperate with the police investigation, but no one here is in the mood to accompany you. Playful."

"I understand, I understand." Ning Yao rubbed her hands and chuckled flatteringly.

He pointed at Chen Heng and said to everyone: "Well, everyone has heard it. If you are willing to give me brother Chen Heng a face and cooperate with my subsequent investigation, then I will naturally not go around in circles anymore. What do you think?"

For so many years, Chen Heng has been the taciturn, steady and reliable old helper standing next to Chi Zhongwu. His status is not high but his words are very important. Even when Mrs. Yuanchi was still alive, she respected him. .

Most of the people sitting in this conference room are young people and juniors, so naturally they have to give him face.

"Very good." Ning Yao clapped her hands with satisfaction.

"Then start the questioning in clockwise order as I said before."

Miss Chi Nian, who was originally in first place, had already gone out to have a private chat with Officer Geng Xun, so it was her husband Chi Bianshu's turn.

Chi Bianshu was no longer too lazy to pretend to Ning Yao, a blind man, that he was usually friendly and fawning, so he said in a bad tone: "Detective, haven't you already ruled me out? What else do you have to ask?"

"It is true that no motive for the murder related to money and power has been found, but there is another point worth noting." Ning Yao raised the corner of her mouth viciously, making it clear that she did not want to let him go so easily.

"What?" Chi Bianshu asked.

Ning Yao simulated knives with his hands and gestured in mid-air: "Dismember the body."

"You must have a lot of hatred towards the deceased to dispose of the body like this, right?"

"There is a rift between father and daughter. It is true that my relationship with my father-in-law is not close, but there is absolutely no enmity. I don't dare to cut the body into pieces or anything like that." Chi Bianshu said calmly, "I don't even dare to kill a chicken."

"I haven't said anything yet, so don't be so anxious to clear up the relationship~" Ning Yao laughed so hard.

Chi Bianshu's breath was stuck in his throat, unable to go up or down. He was so uncomfortable that he could only pick up the cold tea in front of him and take a sip.

Ning Yao stopped teasing him and turned her head smoothly to Chen Heng beside Chi Bianshu.

"Mr. Chen, please set an example by cooperating with the investigation."

Chen Heng's face was expressionless, his elbows resting on both sides of the table, his fingers folded and his chin resting on his chin: "Just ask."

Ning Yao finally showed off his true detective style: "When was the last time you saw the deceased?"

Chen Heng: "Master sent me to pick up the package."

Although it was just a short answer, Ning Yao still noticed something was wrong: "Go to pick up the package, not pick it up? It's just a ship like this. Even if it's a luxury cruise ship, the distance can't be very far. You've been delayed for so long, and you still found the time. Went to the banquet hall and didn't have time to take the package back and hand it over to the master?" Chen Heng: "Yeah."

"Um?!"

Ning Yao was shocked: "What do you mean 'um'? You don't even bother to refute me?"

Chen Heng: "That's the fact. There's nothing to refute."

Ning Yao: "But such rhetoric is very detrimental to yourself. The timeline is too suspicious and it is difficult for people to believe your innocence."

Chen Heng remained cold: "It doesn't matter, those who are clean will be clean themselves."

Ning Yao scratched his head: "Brother, your answer is really not enough to cooperate with the investigation..."

Chen Heng lowered his eyes and thought for a moment: "The last time I saw the master was indeed when he sent me to pick up the package, but the task he gave me was more than just picking up the package, so my movement was not just a simple one. I went back and forth, but went to several other places. Delivering the package to the master is the last part of this mission, but it is a pity that I can no longer complete this mission."

"As for the more detailed parts, I can't say more. Although the master is no longer here, some secrets are still secrets."

"I understand, I understand!" Ning Yao nodded repeatedly.

After a brief interrogation of Chen Heng, Ning Yao walked clockwise to the next subject to be interrogated.

"Mr. Zhonghuai, it's your turn again~ You have to control your temper." Ning Yao gave him a vaccination in advance.

"Hmph." Zhong Huai still opened his mouth with his nostrils.

"I was downstairs presiding over tonight's banquet and exhibition the whole time, and there were always people following me. Whether they were assistants or guests, they can attest that I had no time to kill anyone."

Ning Yao looked very convinced: "Yeah, that's a very convincing alibi."

But the words that followed still contained a gun and a stick: "It seems that rich people are different. Even when they poop, they have an assistant to wipe their butts."

Zhong Huai stood up in anger: "You! You, you are so... vulgar!"

Ning Yao smiled: "Don't say you haven't pooped all day."

Zhong Huai really couldn't repeat Ning Yao's words: "I, I will naturally take time to solve personal problems. But this time is not enough to kill people!"

Du Jingxiu interrupted: "There is also dismemberment."

"Yes," Zhong Huai quickly answered, "dismembering the body is not something that can be done in the time it takes to go to the bathroom. I don't have the time at all."

Ning Yao pouted: "Old Du, it's not your turn yet, don't interrupt."

Du Jingxiu gently covered his mouth with the knuckle of his index finger: "Sorry, I just feel that the efficiency is too low and I can't help but cue the progress."

Rao yawned in agreement. Although he didn't speak, he was still expressing his dissatisfaction.

Ning Yao: "I understand, let me ask you first."

He made his hand pretend to be holding the microphone, and stretched it out to Du Jingxiu's face: "I'm sorry to interview you, Mr. Du Jingxiu, but why did you kill Mr. Chi Zhongwu?"

Du Jingxiu almost laughed out loud: "Oh, this is really... such a big injustice."

"Don't sound so innocent." Ning Yao stretched the virtual microphone further forward, almost pressing it into Du Jingxiu's mouth.

"You visited the deceased this afternoon, bringing with you a gift - the sealed Exodia."
