deep white secret

Chapter 111 You accidentally lost the USB flash drive

Ning Xia sat opposite Gu Youmei and looked at the woman again.

Gu Youmei was still wearing the same clothes as yesterday, a dark brown plaid dress of well-washed cotton, her hair was cut very short, and there were a lot of white hairs stubbornly poking out from the black hair on the temples and on the top of her head.

Seems a bit down and out.

Gu Youmei stared at Ningxia longingly, her eyes full of innocence and prayer:

"Officer Ning, you also know my situation. I can't stay here for long."

Ning Xia looked directly into Gu Youmei's eyes and said in a steady voice:

"There are many unfortunate people, and there are also many people who deserve sympathy, but not everyone has the obligation to sympathize with others. Gu Youmei, you did a great job, very well. You really touched me."

"In this case, Officer Ning, please take pity on me. Let me go back."

"Do you know why we came to you?"

"do not know."

"How could you not know? Gu Youmei, you took the USB flash drive from my computer bag, how could you not know?"

"Oh my God, what did you say, Officer Ning? I picked up the USB flash drive on the ground, why did I take it? How could you insult me ​​like this?"

Saying that, Gu Youmei felt even more aggrieved.

"Gu Youmei, I still don't understand whether you have such a personality or are you deliberately trying to look weak? I am more inclined to the latter now. Everything you do is just pretending."

"Officer Ning, you really misunderstood me. Why should I do that? What can I gain?"

"Gaining sympathy makes us think that you did not harm Xu Dan, let alone entered the crime scene."

"No, I went to see Xu Dan that day. I already said this yesterday."

"Oh, I forgot. You didn't hide the fact that you went to Xu Dan's house. Then let me ask again, did you enter Xu Dan's house?"

"No, no, no one answered the door when I knocked. I shouted a few more times but no one answered, so I left."

"Well, if you're sure what you're telling the truth, then tell me where the handprint on the door came from?"

Just as Gu Youmei was about to speak, Ningxia waved her hand:
"No, no, don't deny it. After DNA fingerprint identification. The fingerprint is yours."

Ning Xia said and put the photo of the fingerprint found on the door in front of Gu Youmei.

"Take a look and give me an explanation."

Gu Youmei obviously didn't expect it and defended:

"I don't believe where you collected the fingerprints. You deliberately harassed me in order to frame me. Officer Ning, you are so unreasonable."

Ningxia sneered:
"Gu Youmei, there is no point in your messing around. Just like this fingerprint can be found, we will have more clues. By then, things may not be the same for you today."

Gu Youmei stared, finally showing a hint of panic.

"Gu Youmei, you want to know how your fingerprints were extracted? There are many complete fingerprints of yours on the dumpling crisper you sent me."

"Also, I specifically went to the gatekeeper of the community to ask this morning. Because you are very familiar with the gatekeeper of the community, you do not need to register when entering or leaving the community. This is why you did not leave a record of your visit."

"But just because you didn't leave a record doesn't mean you haven't been here. I also watched the surveillance of our return to the 160th floor last night. In the surveillance, the zipper of my computer bag was completely closed. Gu Youmei, what do you want to do?"

"What should I do? I don't want to do anything. I have nothing. Shouldn't I want the house? Why should Xu Dan have everything? She wants to take over all my things!"

As soon as Ningxia finished speaking, Gu Youmei shouted hysterically:
"You all are so condescending that it makes me sick. I hate you, all of you."

Gu Youmei covered her eyes with her hands and said such vicious words. Gu Youmei's face showed even more despair.

"I met Xu Dan. She deserved to be killed. It's great. After she dies, our family can be together again. Taotao will still have a father, and I can still have my family."

"No, you won't."

Ningxia is very determined:
"The scene when Xu Dan was killed will always appear in your mind. Besides, Hu Siyang loves Xu Dan very much and has already made a choice between you and Xu Dan. If Hu Siyang knows what you have done, do you think he will do it again?" Accept you?"

"No, what did I do? What did I do?"

"Why didn't you call the police when you found out that Xu Dan was killed? You saw the murderer, why didn't you explain the situation to the police?"

"Did I see the murderer? I didn't see the murderer. When I took the elevator to the eighth floor, the door was ajar. I pushed the door open and found Xu Dan lying on the ground..."

Neither Ning Xia nor Xu Jie expected this, but it also explained why Gu Youmei entered Xu Dan's house without a key.

"The door is open? What do you see?"

"I saw Xu Dan lying in a pool of blood. She stretched out her hand to me and asked me to save her, but why should I save her? This vicious woman!"

A strange expression appeared on Gu Youmei's face, a kind of schadenfreude.

In addition to being shocked, Ningxia also felt guilty. Ningxia was indeed deceived by Gu Youmei's appearance. She couldn't believe that this woman was so indifferent.

"When you met Xu Dan, she was still alive?"

Gu Youmei did not answer directly, but repeated this sentence:
"I won't save her, I won't save her. Only when Xu Dan dies can it be over. I won't have any worries anymore."

Xu Jie had been silently listening to Gu Youmei's confession. Xu Jie had already deduced some details, and Xu Jie had not expected some details.

If Xu Dan was still alive when Gu Youmei walked into the crime scene, does that mean Shi Tuqing was still there at that time?
This also explains the question that Xu Jie has always had in his heart. After Xu Dan was killed, there was a long drag mark between the kitchen and the living room. Was this the mark caused by Xu Dan crawling towards Gu Youmei?At the last moment of his life, Xu Dan asked Gu Youmei for help?
Seeing that Gu Youmei was hysterical, Xu Jie reminded in a calm voice:
"Gu Youmei, what you said just now is your testimony. Now the police are officially investigating you. I hope you can take it seriously."

"What you said is not childish, and you shouldn't act out of emotion. Xu Dan was killed. No matter what grudges you have, as the first witness at the scene, you have the responsibility and obligation to provide us with clues."

"Gu Youmei, let me ask you formally, was Xu Dan still alive when you saw her on the day she was killed?"

Gu Youmei finally couldn't bear it anymore and nodded.

"Have you seen the murderer?"

"No."

"Xu Dan asked you for help?"

Gu Youmei nodded.

"and after?"

Gu Youmei looked lonely and her voice trembled:

"I was struggling, but thinking of everything this woman had done to me, I ran away. Maybe because I ran too fast, I tripped at the door. That fingerprint might have been left at that time."

"What did the door look like when you left?"

"I didn't care, and I didn't have time to think about anything, but the door should be open."

"Didn't you pay attention to whether there was anyone in the living room or bathroom at that time?"

"No, I ran away when I found out Xu Dan was dying."

"Did Xu Dan have a murder weapon by his side at that time?"

Gu Youmei thought about it and shook her head:

"I didn't see it, but I'm not sure."

Ning Xia recorded Gu Youmei's confession next to Xu Jie. At this point in the trial, the case was close to the truth. Ning Xia still had one question that she couldn't help but ask:
"Tell the truth, Gu Youmei, why did you take my USB flash drive?"

Gu Youmei finally admitted:

"I want to know the truth of the case and how far you have gone."

"Aren't you afraid I'll find out?"

"I'm afraid, but I really want to know the progress of the case investigation. I'm ready to deal with you and insist that you lost it. You lost the USB drive accidentally."
