Forensics

When the question came to this point, Liao Yinghan felt that his mouth was very dry.

He was eager to break free from this oppressive atmosphere, and said in a trembling voice, "Can I have some water?"

Gu Yanchen talked to Bai Meng through the headset, Bai Meng got up and poured water for Liao Yinghan, knocked on the door of the interrogation room, and sent it in.

Liao Yinghan took the cup and drank the water with his head down, but Gu Yanchen didn't push forward in a hurry.

He looked at his phone, stood up and whispered a few words to the policeman who was recording at the side, and then walked out of the interrogation room.

Gu Yanchen went straight to the observation room on the side, and Bureau Ding greeted him: "Captain Gu, that's a good question, you can take a break too."

However, Gu Yanchen waved his hand: "Let's talk about it after asking."

He picked up the file folder that he had prepared long ago, which contained the materials he had sorted out last night, detailing everything.

Gu Yanchen turned to Shen Junci again, and Shen Junci gave him the photo.

After collecting all the things and waiting for about 5 minutes, Gu Yanchen entered the interrogation room again.

Seeing the presiding policeman come in again, Liao Yinghan looked up, and then he saw the folder in Gu Yanchen's hand.

Liao Yinghan's heart, which had just been put down, hung up again. He had no idea what would be inside such a thick stack of documents.

Gu Yanchen changed from his gentleness just now, and walked seriously to Liao Yinghan's desk.

He pressed the stack of documents on the table: "Liao Yinghan, we have obtained some newest evidence from the forensic doctor and investigators. You didn't tell us the truth just now."

Asking this sentence means that the interrogation has entered the stage of pressure.

This is to charge the suspect directly.

Liao Yinghan was sweating visibly: "I didn't lie, what I said was true..."

Gu Yanchen interrupted him: "This is a well-planned murder case. You killed Zhong Xiaoke for the purpose of defrauding a high security deposit. As policemen, we have seen too many cases. Many suspects will I feel that no one else knows what I did. But in fact, the police will check all the physical evidence and the details of the corpse... I can tell from this that you are lying and that you are the murderer who killed your wife."

After saying this, Gu Yanchen didn't continue talking, kept silent, and stared at Liao Yinghan.

Liao Yinghan unconsciously raised his head to listen to Gu Yanchen's words, and then began to think.

As everyone knows, if his wife really died in an accident, he should become emotional and irrational by now.

A normal person would express indignation at the accusations made by the police, and would cry out hoarsely that he was wronged, saying that it was just an accident.

But now that he has been caught up in the interrogation, he began to think about the logic, and followed Gu Yanchen's words to recall whether he had missed any details.

This is the mind of a criminal.

His thoughtful reaction further convinced the police that he was the murderer.

Then Liao Yinghan suddenly noticed that the policeman on the opposite side was silent, and the room became quiet for a while, only the sound of the ticking clock and the second hand could be heard.

Liao Yinghan felt a pressure coming towards him.

He never knew that the quiet blankness was so unbearable.

All he could hear was the beating of his heart. For a moment, he even forgot to breathe, and unconsciously held his breath until he coughed repeatedly due to lack of oxygen.

Coughing finally broke the silence.

Liao Yinghan felt that he had to say something, his mind was in a mess, and he began to excuse himself: "My wife and I have always had a good relationship. Before I went to sea this time, I never thought that such a thing would happen. This is really true. It was just an accident, we..."

Gu Yanchen took out a few photos of the corpse and placed them in front of him.

Liao Yinghan looked down and saw that the woman in the photo was very miserable, with blood flowing from her nose and mouth. This kind of photo brought him back to that morning a few days ago, in the deep sea, on the beach.

Liao Yinghan only took one look, then covered his eyes, as if he didn't dare to recall the scene at that time.

His heartbeat accelerated under the heavy pressure, and he panicked.

Gu Yanchen said again: "I know you didn't tell the truth just now, you have to tell me what happened underwater that day."

"Underwater...underwater...at that time..." Liao Yinghan's voice began to tremble, "I didn't do anything, I really love my wife...it was an accident."

"You are a considerate husband, why did you let your wife do this in front of your eyes?" Gu Yanchen repeated the previous interrogation question.

Those words were repeated by Liao Yinghan.

Shaped his perfect personality.

But at this time, this rhetorical question was like a rope, tightly locked his throat, and became his shackles.

Liao Yinghan found that his brain began to lose control, and he was thinking over and over again about the process of his wife's death that day.

The woman was frightened, trembling, and then began to vomit blood, and her last look at him...

No matter how heartless Liao Yinghan was, he couldn't be completely indifferent to a person's death.

Those images were like footage from a horror movie, constantly eroding his brain.

This is a kind of spiritual devastation and torture.

He felt sick.

Gu Yanchen lowered his body, condescending, and put further pressure on Liao Yinghan: "Does your wife's death have anything to do with you?"

"I do not have……"

"Liao Yinghan, you must face up to what you have done and tell us what happened underwater."

"I……"

"I understand that you were flustered just now because of too much pressure. Everyone makes mistakes. As long as you face your mistakes and confess everything, we can end today's interrogation."

The whole interrogation process is a psychological game.

Gu Yanchen kept interrupting Liao Yinghan's words, he didn't sound harsh, he was still speaking in a normal tone.But every sentence is like adding a new stone to Liao Yinghan's body.

This is an interrogation technique that prevents the suspect from speaking denials.

The people sitting in the observation room were all paying attention to the interrogation process.

Shen Junci could feel that Liao Yinghan's initial confidence was being gradually destroyed by Gu Yanchen.

Small space, fatigue, and heavy psychological pressure, the suspect's defense became weaker and weaker.

The entire interrogation will last for several hours, but the real breakthrough point is often only a few minutes.

After playing the role of the bad policeman, Lu Ying also came to the observation room. Looking at the progress inside, he said with emotion: "This man's mouth is too hard. If I were the murderer, I'm afraid I'll be recruited by now..."

Huge pressure was transmitted through the glass of the observation room.

Bai Meng was still a little worried. She frowned and said, "This is a man who can calmly kill his wife in the deep sea. How can it be so easy for him to confess?"

Director Ding stared intently at Gu Yanchen inside, he felt his palms were sweating.

"She made a mistake, it was an accident..." Liao Yinghan's eyes dodged, and he repeated this sentence with difficulty under pressure.

"You still haven't told the truth." Gu Yanchen sighed, took out a photo, and put it on the table, "Do you know this thing?"

In the face of Liao Yinghan's resistance, Gu Yanchen changed his strategy and began to present evidence related to the case.

Liao Yinghan glanced at it, and his heart beat suddenly slowed down.

He opened his eyes wide in disbelief. It was a camera, and it was Zhong Xiaoke's waterproof camera.

Liao Yinghan always felt that the whole incident happened in the sea, as long as he resisted the pressure, he could escape, but he never expected that the police had evidence.

no, impossible...

Liao Yinghan sorted out his thoughts.

He remembered that Zhong Xiaoke was holding the camera at that time, and she took it off her neck for the convenience of taking selfies. When they were wrestling underwater, the camera fell to the bottom of the water.

That is in the sea, where is it so easy to salvage?

Maybe the police used some similar model to deceive themselves.Even if it is the same camera, it does not necessarily have the video of the last period in it.

Thinking about it this way, Liao Yinghan felt as if a basin of cold water had been poured on his head, which made him wake up instantly.

Thinking of this, Liao Yinghan raised the corners of his mouth and twitched: "This may be the camera we lost before. It would be even better if we could capture something. It can just prove my innocence."

"Coincidentally, the camera happened to record your situation underwater..." Gu Yanchen took out a photo, which was a screenshot of the video, chose the clearest one, and optimized it several times.

Still, the photo isn't very clear.Only two figures can be vaguely recognized, and the content of the picture is that Liao Yinghan hugged Zhong Xiaoke from behind.

Liao Yinghan said hoarsely: "I hugged her from behind at that time... But it was to save her, I held her body..."

But he automatically thought of the following actions, if they were all recorded...

He pretended to be calm, but the cold sweat wet the clothes on his back in an instant.

Gu Yanchen said: "Save her? Your previous confession said that your wife brought you up, which doesn't match what was captured by the underwater camera."

Liao Yinghan gritted his teeth and said firmly: "Naturally, you will change your position at any time underwater, and the camera must not have captured the whole process."

Asked here, Gu Yanchen also had to feel that Liao Yinghan's psychological quality is extremely strong, he was able to discover such details in such a high-pressure environment, and he did not fall into a trap.

Another questioning was avoided, but Liao Yinghan's heart was disturbed, and two voices shouted in his mind.

One said: The police already know about it, and I will be sentenced.

Another said: You can't admit defeat, you can't let go, it's over if you let go.

He closed his mouth, bit his lips tightly, stared at Gu Yanchen, breathing rapidly.

After all, Liao Yinghan practiced sports. He is a person with good physical strength and endurance. Under high pressure, he remembered that every time he exercised, when the weight increased and his body was weak, he could still persist with his tenacious will down.

The same is true now, if you persist a little longer, you may be able to get rid of the crime!

He came to his senses, these are just the words of the police, if he admits defeat, he will be sentenced to death!

If there was conclusive evidence, the police wouldn't be here talking nonsense to him, they'd send him straight to jail.

Thinking of this, Liao Yinghan pretended to be calm and emphasized again: "My wife's death has nothing to do with me!"

Suddenly, there was a sound of regret in the observation room.

They almost thought that Liao Yinghan was about to confess, but they didn't expect that this man survived another round.

Under the light in the interrogation room, Gu Yanchen raised his head and looked at the opponent in front of him with a calm expression.

He seemed to have expected that the man would continue to deny this time, and in his hand, he still held a trump card that could completely defeat the other party.

The outcome is about to be decided.
