Chapter 233: Do You Believe Me If I Say I Know the Murderer?

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation | Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Even though Zhou Qiang also wanted to solve this case, he was genuinely taken aback when he heard Su Xuan’s words.

What are you talking about, Su Xuan?” he exclaimed. “How can you claim to have found the culprit so quickly, considering we were both searching for clues together? Don’t let the pressure from Feng Weixiong’s talent agency make you give up now!”

“The culprit…” Zhou Qiang began to speak, and Su Xuan joined in.

However, when Su Xuan spoke again, Zhou Qiang sensed the seriousness in his words and fell silent. He closed his mouth, observing Su Xuan with a thoughtful expression.

At that moment, Su Xuan smiled and said, “Old Zhou, do you think I’m the kind of person who talks nonsense without reason?”

Of course not! If Su Xuan were the type to make baseless claims, there would be no trustworthy people left in the world.

Zhou Qiang immediately shook his head, and Su Xuan continued, “So, when I say I’ve found the culprit, do you believe me?”

Zhou Qiang pondered the question for a long time while locking eyes with Su Xuan. Eventually, he took a deep breath. In his heart, he couldn’t truly believe that Su Xuan had found the culprit so quickly, especially when he himself had been working on the case for so long without even coming close to identifying a suspect.

How could Su Xuan have discovered the culprit’s trail and made a definitive selection for the perpetrator?

But…

What if he had?

Zhou Qiang realized that Su Xuan was different after all.

Ever since the breakup, Su Xuan’s actions had become a topic of fascination among people. His colleagues at the office were almost treating him like a prodigy. What if he could really ensure the capture of the culprit in this case? Mixed with hesitation and inner turmoil, Zhou Qiang couldn’t be certain if Su Xuan had truly found the murderer. However, at this moment, looking into Su Xuan’s eyes, he had no choice but to believe. Time was running out.

“You tell me,” he cautiously began, “It’s been so many days on this case. If you can really crack it, I’ll give you my position as the head. Otherwise, if I handle it myself, this thing will probably remain an unsolved mystery.”

Zhou Qiang’s words weren’t an exaggeration. Without Su Xuan’s assistance, they wouldn’t have even discovered the small room within the victim’s room, let alone identify the murderer. Hearing Zhou Qiang’s proposition, Su Xuan ’ smiled and seized a pair of handcuffs from the desk.

Let s go,” he said, “I’ll show you how to crack this case.”

What more could Zhou Qiang say after that? He jumped to his feet and followed Su Xuan. His curiosity was piqued. What was it that he didn’t know? How had Su Xuan managed to solve the case in such a short time? Did he believe it? Not really. But he had no choice.

Su Xuan led Zhou Qiang to the economic team of Feng Weixiong. Don’t underestimate the influence of TikTok (Douyin) fame. If TikTok could make people famous and rich, the team behind it had to be moving at lightning speed. Furthermore, it was a group company, so shortly after Feng Weixiong’s departure, they had already signed a new anchor.

When they arrived, the faces of the team members did not look welcoming.

This officer, you said you’d come after our previous discussion,” the team leader said. “We’ve already given you all the information. But now… What’s the purpose of your visit? Are you here to question us again? Sorry, but we’re quite busy at the moment. Please get straight to the point.”

The team leader’s face was clearly showing annoyance at the repeated visits from the police, making it clear that they found it bothersome.

“Don’t worry,” Su Xuan replied, offering a reassuring smile to the team leader. “This will be the last time.”

Upon hearing this, the team leader who had been standing in front of them looked utterly baffled. Su Xuan then pulled out his police ID and the wanted notice, stating, “We’re here to find Hu Qian.”

Hu Qian!?

The moment the team leader saw the wanted notice, his eyes widened, and he appeared dumbfounded.

“Officer,” he stammered, “There’s no one here by that name. Are you sure you haven’t made a mistake?”

Hu Qian?

Although there had indeed been someone with that name in their team before, she had left a long time ago. Now, for the police to come here searching for Hu Qian…

How could they possibly find her?

“Hu Qian did work for us before,” the team leader explained, “but she resigned quite a while ago. Are you sure you’re in the right place?”

Not only the team leader, but even Zhou Qiang looked puzzled. He remembered the name quite well. Hu Qian had been the third person involved in the assault by Feng Weixiong. Compared to the first time when she had participated, she had become more proficient by the third incident. Her actions were swift’, vicious, and struck a heavy blow to the victim’s self-esteem.

Unfortunately, Hu Qian had been the third victim herself. Feng Weixiong had tracked her down, drugged her, and subjected her to inhumane torment. If Feng Weixiong hadn’t been worried about the consequences of causing her death, she might not have survived her ordeal at his hands. After escaping, she had spent a full three months in the hospital.

When she was finally discharged, she found herself unemployed, as the company had fired her. Feng Weixiong had acted as if she didn’t exist, showing no concern that she might report him to the authorities.

Hu Qian was just a young girl who had come out of a small mountain town. All she wanted was a stable job. She had initially thought that working in an economic team for internet celebrities would be a secure job. At most, she expected frequent changes in internet celebrities. As long as the talent agency was still in business, people would be fine.

But she had never imagined that this line of work could be so corrupt. She was helpless. She couldn’t resist someone so much more powerful than herself. In the end, she had to accept the reality of being dismissed.

Soon, she vanished from the city.

This was the information Zhou Qiang had found earlier. He and Su Xuan had searched for almost all the girls Feng Weixiong had harmed, but not everyone could be found. Feng Weixiong had been active for a long time, not just recently, and had harmed many people. A large portion of the information they had consisted of individuals who had disappeared in the city.

That’s why Zhou Qiang was so shocked when he heard Su Xuan’s intention to find Hu Qian, who had already disappeared from the city.

“Are we in the wrong place?” Zhou Qiang wondered.

But at that moment, Su Xuan smiled at a young girl not far away.

“Do you perhaps doubt the police?” he asked the team leader. “Hu Qian wasn’t just a part of your team; she was an indispensable part of it.”

The team leader was left bewildered.

“Indispensable?” he questioned.

“Who?”

While the team leader was still puzzled, Su Xuan walked over to the young girl and, looking at the scriptwriter beside her, said, “Hu Qian, you are suspected of involvement in a murder case. Please come with us..”
