When Li Shiqing heard this, she immediately became nervous: "You mean, there will be police officers looking for us?"
"Definitely."
Zhou Chen nodded. Although he seldom greeted the law enforcement agencies before, such a serious accident happened. Judging from the misery of the scene, the death toll would be even more astonishing if at least a dozen vehicles were involved in the accident.
Such an accident is absolutely rare. Regardless of the reasons, the city will make every effort to investigate it.
Their abnormal getting off the car will definitely be investigated, and it is only a matter of time before the investigators come to their door.
"But you don't have to be nervous. If you really can't bear it, just tell the truth. We still have to enter the cycle anyway, so we just have to get through this time."
Li Shiqing: "I have only been to the police station once since I was a child, when I applied for an ID card. I was a little scared."
Zhou Chen comforted him, "What's there to be afraid of? You've experienced five explosions, are you afraid of going to the police station? Relax."
While Zhou Chen and Li Shiqing were drinking coffee together, inside the Municipal Public Security Bureau, the deputy director, the deputy captain of the criminal police and others were discussing the case of the bus explosion.
"Director Du, Master, we have checked the surveillance cameras along the station. There were ten passengers on the bus up to the previous stop of the accident, Yanjiang East Road. Including the driver, there were eleven people in total. However, only eight bodies were found in the bus."
Jiang Feng, a plainclothes police officer with short hair and about 30 years old, reported to the two leaders beside him.
Director Du is a middle-aged woman with short hair. The man who is called Master is called Zhang Cheng, a middle-aged man who is also the deputy captain of the Criminal Investigation Detachment.
The two of them frowned when they heard this.
"What do you mean, three people are missing out of nowhere?"
Jiang Feng replied: "I have asked them to investigate, and I believe there will be results soon."
Zhang Cheng is an old criminal policeman with rich experience in handling cases. He instinctively felt that something was wrong and ordered with a serious face: "Investigate carefully."
It is not difficult for the current public security bureau to retrieve surveillance footage, and the footage was found quickly.
The surveillance video was taken near Qingshui Lane at a little before 1:41. You can see that the bus suddenly stopped and three people got off.
Director Du, Zhang Cheng and others quickly received the surveillance video and watched it carefully.
After watching the video, Jiang Feng was the first to shout, "Director Du, Master, this is not the stop. I find it very suspicious that these three people suddenly got off here."
Director Du did not say anything but looked at Zhang Cheng. Although she was the deputy director, she was definitely not as professional as Zhang Cheng in handling cases.
Zhang Cheng did not agree with his apprentice Jiang Feng's words, but said: "You said it was suspicious, do you have any evidence? Investigating a case requires evidence, not just because you say it's suspicious. Have you found the person?"
"No."
"Go find the person first."
After receiving the order, Jiang Feng immediately went out to act.
Li Shiqing was originally sitting opposite Zhou Chen, but now she was sitting in the same row with Zhou Chen. Both of them were staring at the mobile phone on the table, which was reporting news about the bus bombing.
"These reporters and media are so amazing. It's been less than an hour and they've already released news, with videos."
Although it was Zhou Chen's phone, Li Shiqing kept swiping it with her little hand and looked at it very seriously.
Zhou Chen didn't care. He had already finished watching it. Although the report was quick, the content was very limited. Even the video was shot long after the accident. It was blurry and had no reference value at all.
Suddenly, Zhou Chen saw several people walking towards them with the gait of dragons and tigers.
"Zhou Chen, Li Shiqing, right? I'm Jiang Feng from the Criminal Investigation Division of the Municipal Bureau. These three are my colleagues. We want to find out more about the situation from you. Would it be convenient for you to come with us to the bureau?"
Zhou Chen looked at Jiang Feng. This man was not tall and was rather thin, but his eyes were cold and he looked at them warily.
When Li Shiqing heard that the other party was a police officer, she immediately grabbed Zhou Chen's clothes nervously, looking quite nervous.
"It's about the bus explosion, right? Can't we ask here? Why do we have to go to your place?"
Jiang Feng's eyes flashed. He was already suspicious of Zhou Chen and the other two who suddenly got off the car. Now, when he heard Zhou Chen reveal their purpose, he became even more suspicious.
"This is our procedure. I hope you won't make things difficult for us."
Feeling Jiang Feng's attitude, Zhou Chen knew that Jiang Feng was suspicious of them. Although he was dissatisfied, he did not want to resist.
"It's fine to go to your police station, but is this how you police officers handle cases now? Do you treat us as suspects?"
Jiang Feng was very impatient and raised his voice: "Zhou Chen, how to handle the case is our procedure. You probably don't know how serious this incident is. If you..."
Before he could finish, Zhou Chen stood up and said, "Let's go."
"you."
Jiang Feng was interrupted before he could finish his words, and he felt choked and uncomfortable.
"Why, you're not leaving?"
Jiang Feng gritted his teeth and said, "Let's go."
Zhou Chen took the lead and Li Shiqing quickly followed. When they walked outside the coffee shop, they found three police cars parked at the door and a middle-aged man standing there.
Jiang Feng went up to him and said, "Master, Zhou Chen and Li Shiqing have been brought here."
Zhang Cheng nodded and said, "Let them get in the car."
When they were about to get in the car, Li Shiqing suddenly asked cautiously, "Can we take the same car?"
Jiang Feng refused without hesitation: "No."
In the end, Zhou Chen got into the first police car and Li Shiqing got into the second police car.
After the car started, Zhang Cheng, who was sitting next to Zhou Chen, took the initiative to introduce himself: "Hello, I am Zhang Cheng from the city criminal investigation team."
Zhou Chen replied: "Hello, my name is Zhou Chen, I think you should already know my identity."
A strange look flashed in Zhang Cheng's eyes. Zhou Chen's calmness was beyond his expectation. No matter what, most people would be more or less nervous or panicked after getting in a police car.
But Zhou Chen not only did not show any nervousness, but was able to talk to him in this tone.
"Today is a weekday, don't you have classes?"
"University is different from middle school. Sometimes there are only one or two classes a day. It's normal to have no classes for half a day."
"Someone should have called you just now, why didn't you answer?"
"I'm a special person. I rarely answer calls from strangers."
"Really? So what are you doing in the city today?"
Although Zhang Cheng's tone was much better than Jiang Feng's just now, Zhou Chen became more alert. This Zhang Cheng was much smarter than Jiang Feng.
"You may not believe this, but I came to the city today for a blind date."
"Blind date?"
Zhang Cheng was really surprised. Based on their investigation results, he knew how outstanding Zhou Chen was. How could such a person want to go on a blind date? Was he so competitive?
Zhou Chen shrugged. It was true. As far as he could remember, he went to the city today for a blind date, and the time was three o'clock.
However, he had already sent a message to his blind date, saying that he had something else to do and could not go.
The two asked and answered. Although they seemed to be some unnutritious questions, Zhou Chen was mature enough to be able to distinguish Zhang Cheng's temptation.
Although he has never been a police officer and has no experience in handling cases, he has lived for so many years that he is very good at observing people's words and expressions and judging their appearance.
After a while, the police car arrived at the destination. Zhou Chen and Li Shiqing entered the Public Security Bureau. All the electronic products on their bodies were collected and they were taken to the interrogation room separately.
Looking at the closed interrogation room, Zhou Chen knew that he was really being treated as a suspect.
After a long time, no one came in to interrogate him. Zhou Chen knew that this was a routine method of interrogation, so he was not in a hurry. He just sat on the chair and closed his eyes to rest.
In the monitoring room, Director Du, Zhang Cheng and others gathered together, watching Zhou Chen and Li Shiqing on the surveillance camera.
"We have already gained preliminary information about the accident scene. The bus was completely destroyed. At present, it seems that it is difficult to retrieve the surveillance footage inside the bus, so these two people should be our last breakthrough point."
Zhang Cheng asked curiously: "Isn't there another person?"
Director Du shook his head and sighed, "We just received a notification from the hospital that another person who got off the bus died after failed rescue efforts."
Zhang Cheng, Jiang Feng and others all frowned immediately.
Director Du continued, "These two people had no criminal records before. I have asked people to investigate. What was their situation when you found them?"
Jiang Feng said, "When we found them, Zhou Chen seemed to have known that we would go find him, and he was very calm. But Li Shiqing seemed very nervous. When we were in the car, Li Shiqing kept answering questions that were not relevant to the question. I felt that something was wrong."
Zhang Cheng also said: "Zhou Chen has been very calm since he got on the car, and he was very organized when answering questions. I'm not sure if he has any questions, but his reaction is definitely different from that of ordinary people."
Director Du nodded and said, "Yes, I just watched it. The two people behaved completely differently in the interrogation room. Li Shiqing looked around and seemed very nervous, but Zhou Chen, since entering the interrogation room, has been leaning back in his chair with his eyes closed. He doesn't seem nervous at all."
Zhang Cheng added: "I asked about their relationship. Zhou Chen said that although they were from the same school, they just met. But from the video, after they got off the bus and when we found them, they were together the whole time. It didn't look like they just met."
Jiang Feng interjected: "It's not just that I just met them. When I first found them, they were close together in the coffee shop, looking at their mobile phones head to head, and even wanted to sit together when they were riding in a police car. Just now People you know will be so close?"
Director Du seemed to be thinking about something. According to what Zhang Cheng and Jiang Feng said, Zhou Chen and Li Shiqing were indeed suspicious, especially Zhou Chen, who was even more suspicious.
"Wait a moment, you two go ask them if they have any questions. You will know after you ask."
"Yes, Director Du."
Jiang Feng walked into the interrogation room and felt very angry when he saw Zhou Chen sitting opposite him with his eyes closed.
Originally he was going to ask Li Shiqing, but he changed places with his master halfway. He just wanted to come and interrogate Zhou Chen. He always felt that Zhou Chen was a major suspect.
After Jiang Feng and the recorder entered the interrogation room, he did not interrogate Zhou Chen right away. Instead, he held a book and pretended to read it, but his eyes were always fixed on Zhou Chen, observing his every move.
But his observation was doomed to be fruitless, because Zhou Chen just lay there motionless, without even opening his eyes.
Gradually, Jiang Feng could no longer hold back and prepared to begin the interrogation.
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 538: Jiang Feng is criticized, Director Du wants a drug test
"Zhou Chen, open your eyes."
Hearing Jiang Feng's dissatisfied shout, Zhou Chen slowly opened his eyes, looked at Jiang Feng without saying a word.
For some reason, Jiang Feng always felt that Zhou Chen's gaze was too creepy, which made him feel very uncomfortable and even a little guilty.
But the next moment he became even angrier. I am a police officer, how could I be scared by a 'criminal suspect'? He suddenly became angry and his emotions fluctuated.
Although Jiang Feng was very irritable, he was a criminal policeman after all. He suppressed his anger and pretended to be calm as he began to ask questions.
"Zhou Chen, on May 2019, 5, that is, today, a No. 9 bus on Yanjiang Road exploded due to a traffic accident, causing extremely serious consequences. According to our investigation, you have also taken this bus, but you got off with two other passengers before reaching the stop. Why? What was the reason that made the three of you get off the bus suddenly, and get off together?"
Zhou Chen asked back, "From what you said, you think our early departure is related to the bus crash and explosion?"
Jiang Feng said coldly: "I am the one asking you questions now, not you. You should answer whatever I ask you."
Zhou Chen said slowly, "If you say so, then I have something to say. I agreed to come and verify the situation with you, but that doesn't mean I am your criminal suspect. You are now treating me as a criminal suspect, both openly and secretly. I want to ask, do you have any evidence? If you don't have any evidence, I can sue you for defamation."
Jiang Feng said angrily: "I am just verifying the situation with you now, and when did we say that you are criminal suspects?"
"In that case, I ask to see a lawyer, is that okay?"
"you."
Jiang Feng was very angry at Zhou Chen's attitude. It took him a long time to calm down and his tone became calm.
"There's no need to hire a lawyer. We're just asking about the situation."
Zhou Chen was satisfied and said, "That's right. Don't treat me the way you treat prisoners. I'm not your prisoner."
Jiang Feng pretended not to hear and asked again: "Mr. Zhou Chen, why did you get off the bus halfway before reaching the stop?"
"It's simple. Someone was being a hooligan, so Li Shiqing and I planned to take him to the police station, so we got off the car early."
"But the surveillance video shows that the man separated from you not long after you got off the bus."
"That's because it was a misunderstanding. Once the misunderstanding was resolved, we separated."
This answer made Jiang Feng very dissatisfied. He felt that Zhou Chen was insulting his IQ, but now he was much calmer and did not lose his composure again.
"Then why did you and Li Shiqing go to the explosion site of the bus after you got off the bus? Did you go there to confirm something?"
Zhou Chen smiled: "Officer Jiang Feng, it seems that you still regard me as a suspect. Do you think I am related to the bombing? Because big data shows that most criminals will return to the scene to confirm the situation after committing a crime, or enjoy the pleasure brought by their own work. Do you think I am the same?"
Jiang Feng's face suddenly changed and he looked at Zhou Chen in shock. He did think so, but he never expected that Zhou Chen would reveal his thoughts in an instant, which doubled his pressure.
Director Du, who was watching in the monitoring room, also had a very serious expression. Zhou Chen's performance and what he said made it hard for people not to be suspicious.
"Investigate Zhou Chen carefully again. I want to know all his information from childhood to adulthood."
In the interrogation room, Jiang Feng didn't know what to ask. Zhou Chen's eyes made him feel uncomfortable. It seemed as if this guy could see through his thoughts.
"Zhou Chen, please answer my questions truthfully and don't beat around the bush and change the subject."
Zhou Chen nodded and said, "I went to the scene to confirm whether the explosion was caused by a traffic accident, but it was not what you thought, because I also suspected that the bus explosion might not be an accident, but a human factor."
