Genius Club.

Chapter 210 Your Invitation
"Lin Xian? Where are you going?"

Chu Shanhe was very surprised to see Lin Xian stand up and leave.

At such a critical time...

What is Lin Xian going to do?

A few days ago, Lin Xian came to him specifically to ask for a favor, which was to ask him to come forward and secretly gather some national forces from outside the East China Sea, the farther the better, to cooperate with the planned ambush.

The main reason is that Lin Xian does not trust the Donghai police.

At first, Chu Shanhe didn’t understand Lin Xian’s intention...but after Lin Xian told him that the primary suspects were Ji Lin and Ji Xinshui, he immediately understood why Lin Xian did this.

Not to mention that Ji Xinshui holds a high position of power and has a high reputation and status both domestically and internationally; even Ji Lin is treated as a guest of honor because he has assisted the Donghai City police in solving many difficult and complicated cases.

Just think about it and you will know that if the East China Sea police cooperate with the ambush, Ji Lin will definitely have a way to see through Lin Xian's actions.

Therefore, the arrest operation in the early morning 10 hours ago was successful.

Relying on his personal connections, he found a big shot in the imperial capital. This big shot also took this series of murders against scientists very seriously and was very angry, so he asked his subordinates to take action and cooperate with this operation.

Everything is going smooth.

It’s a pity...in the end, there were still problems in grasping the other party’s motive for murder and the evidence of murder.

Because of Ji Lin's temporary withdrawal and the evasive braking marks left by the taxi driver, the final outcome of the arrest became confusing.

Chu Shanhe was not worried about embarrassing himself or losing face.

He also hated the murderers who killed Professor Xu Yun and wanted to kill them immediately.

If he just watched them run away like this... he would feel guilty towards Xu Yun and those great scientists who died with them!

"Don't worry, Mr. Chu. I'll be back soon."

Lin Xian stopped at the door and turned to look at Chu Shanhe:
"I've thought of a way to make them talk. Please continue to monitor Ji Lin and Ji Xinshui... Don't let them meet. Wait until I come back before taking any action."

……

After coming out of the Donghai City Public Security Bureau, Lin Xian took a taxi directly to MX Company.

I went to the company's front desk to inquire.

well.

Zhao Yingjun is out attending a meeting, so there is no one in the office now, which saves a lot of trouble.

He got in the elevator and pressed the button for the 22nd floor.

Ding----

After the elevator opened, he came to the password door of Zhao Yingjun's office, entered the password, and successfully entered the office whose password was known only to the two of them.

"call……"

After closing the password door, Lin Xian breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhao Yingjun's office remains the same as before, without any changes.

Because I haven't cleaned and tidied the room for her for a long time, the sofa and coffee table began to be covered with a layer of fine dust.

But there is nothing we can do about it.

Zhao Yingjun doesn't trust anyone else, including the cleaning staff, and no one is allowed to enter her office without permission.

Therefore, I can only clean this huge office myself when I have time.

It's that yellow bird...

You treat this place like an ATM machine every day, going in and out as you please, stealing things as you go. Can't you just clean this place up at the same time? Really?

Lin Xian came to the filing cabinet in the corner.

Zhao Yingjun was not very good at organizing documents. As long as Lin Xian didn't help her, she would just pile all the documents on the table like a pyramid. She would only consider moving them to a different place when there was no more room for them.

Because of this.

Lin Xian hid the fake invitation to the Genius Club here before going to the Donghai Public Security Bureau to live with Ji Lin.

Facts have proved that I was right about Zhao Yingjun.

He was also extremely grateful that after some hesitation, he did not throw away or destroy the fake invitation letter but kept it.

squeak……

Open the filing cabinet, take out the file box on the bottom layer, and open it.

A piece of dark red cardboard lay quietly inside, everything was the same as before.

Lin Xian turned the folded invitation over and saw five large gold-plated characters on the back: Genius Club.

In the corner of the file box, there was a wax seal, which was also embossed with the logo of the Genius Club.

The right hand with the index finger pointing straight to the sky.

This invitation was forged by Huang Que. It is fake, even outrageously fake.

The QR code in the invitation letter turned out to be the live broadcast address of Apple's press conference... It's really embarrassing.

but.

The seal on the wax seal is real.

This means that as long as this invitation letter is not opened and the contents are not read... it can be mistaken for the real thing.

Plus.

In the current situation...

Lin Xian smiled slightly, took out a lighter, and softened the wax clay on the back of the wax seal until it became sticky.

Then press it tightly on the fold of the invitation letter to seal the already opened invitation letter again.

"very good."

Lin Xian looked at this "original second-hand" invitation letter with satisfaction:

"There's a saying in the movie 'Wushuang'... Sometimes fake things are more useful than real ones."

"Besides, since no one has ever seen the real invitation, then the fake one must be real."

……

Lin Xian put the invitation letter into a file bag, took a taxi to the Donghai City Public Security Bureau, and went to the interrogation monitoring room with Chu Shanhe and others.

In the monitoring room here, you can see the situation in every interrogation room.

Ji Lin and Ji Xinshui were locked in two interrogation rooms respectively.

Both of them sat on iron chairs.

Their hands and feet were shackled to the edge of the chair to prevent them from taking any extreme actions.

"They still won't say anything?"

Lin Xian asked.

Chu Shanhe shook his head:

"Not only did he not say anything, but he was also very arrogant."

He pointed at the surveillance video of Ji Xinshui on the monitoring screen:
"The old man was not worried about the current situation at all. He even smiled and said that he would be out soon. He was very confident."

"Where's Ji Lin?"

"It's the same." Chu Shanhe said:

"We can communicate with Ji Lin, but he denied all the criminal facts we provided. He is so smart that he naturally knew that we could only detain them for 24 hours at most."

"So...if we can't find any evidence linking them to the murder case, or find a way to make them admit their crimes...I'm afraid they will just let us go as they wish."

"No, I have a way."

Lin Xian shook his head and looked at Chu Shanhe and Officer Liu in the monitoring room:
"It's just... I need everyone to cooperate with me."

"No problem." Officer Liu answered first:
"Lin Xian, after the previous incidents, everyone in our police station has full trust in you. As long as it does not violate principles and regulations, we can do as you say. And within my authority... even if it slightly violates the regulations, it can be discussed."

"I have just discussed this with Shanhe. If they are the murderers who killed Xu Yun and Tang Xin... then no matter how much it costs, we must arrest them and bring them to justice, and let them receive the punishment they deserve!"

"The law will not let any criminals escape. I don't care what the people of Donghai City will think of our police for going back on their word. What we have to do, what we must do, is to find the real murderer! Lin Xian, if you have any ideas, just say them out. All the responsibilities... will be borne by me!"

……

Lin Xian nodded and explained everything to everyone.

He didn't tell them about the Genius Club, nor did he tell them any details of his plan. He just told them:
"When I go in to talk to them later, please turn off all video, audio, and monitoring equipment."

"Now simple interrogation will not yield any clues. I must find a way to gain their trust. They are both smart people. We should not play tricks. We must shut down all the monitoring equipment."

"As for the rest... just trust me. I won't let you down."

After instructing everyone.

Lin Xian watched the surveillance video of Ji Lin and Ji Xinshui...

Which of these two people should I look for?
Think about it.

Lin Xian decided to target the old man he was not familiar with.

Season's favorite.

Lin Xian believes that he does not understand Ji Xinshui, and Ji Xinshui does not understand him well enough. This sense of strangeness makes it easier to deceive each other.

In contrast.

Ji Lin and I have been together for such a long time, and we are too familiar with each other.

This familiarity is not only cognitive familiarity, but also familiarity with the other person's way of thinking, speech habits, and speaking and behavior style.

It's just like how it's hard for friends to lie to each other... As soon as Gao Yang sticks out his butt, Lin Xian knows what he's going to fart, and even a glance from them can convey 10KB of information. When they know each other so well, it's really hard to lie to each other.

At least……

Lin Xian was not confident that he could deceive Ji Lin.

Although he is unwilling to admit it, the other party's IQ is indeed very high.

At the same time, there is another reason to choose Ji Xinshui.

As the saying goes.

Catch the thief first to catch the king.

Ji Xinshui is most likely the boss or key figure in their gang, and he definitely knows the most information and intelligence.

As long as I can trick Ji Xinshui into taking the bait...

That would be equivalent to destroying their entire gang directly from the root and truly catching them all in one swoop!
"I'm going to go see Ji Xinshui first. Watch my gestures and turn off all the surveillance."

After explaining everything to Officer Liu and the staff, Lin Xian took the briefcase and walked towards the interrogation room where Ji Xinshui was.

Ji Xinshui has been staying here since he was arrested last night.

This might be...

It's your only chance.

Squeak.

Lin Xian pushed open the heavy door of the interrogation room, walked in, and looked directly at the old man sitting on the iron chair across from the table.

This was... the first time he met Ji Xinshui in real life.

What a fateful encounter, I didn't expect it to be in such a place.

The Ji Xinshui in front of him looked much older than Lin Xian had imagined...

From this perspective, the photos previously reported in the news might not have been taken two years ago, but earlier.

There are not many gray hairs on the old man's head, almost all of them have fallen out, and his scalp has no luster at all, like a wrinkled rag.

He is really too old.

Judging from his age, he is at least 80 years old, but judging from his body shape and skin condition, he looks even older than his actual age.

But he does have a very good mental temperament.

Even though he was shackled to a chair, his expression was still so confident.

Such disdain,

So easy,

So...arrogant.

It was as if the person who was handcuffed was not him, but Lin Xian.

"...What a rare guest."

Seeing that the person who came into the interrogation room was Lin Xian, Ji Xinshui's face wrinkled and he laughed coldly:

"What a lucky boy."

boom.

Lin Xian didn't say anything, and his expression didn't change at all. He gently closed the door of the interrogation room and sat silently opposite Ji Xinshui.

Ji Xinshui straightened his body, leaned back, and looked down at Lin Xian with a contemptuous look:

"Give up. I won't say anything. It's useless for anyone to come."

Snapped.

Lin Xian snapped his fingers out of thin air.

There was a muffled sound.

The one-way glass in the interrogation room darkened and turned into a black screen; the power indicators of the surveillance cameras in the four corners turned off and shrank; at the same time, the recording system indicators on the desktop and the wall also turned off synchronously, indicating the end of the monitoring recording.

Ji Xinshui looked around and frowned, very surprised.

He didn't understand what was going on.

Lin Xian in front of him is just an ordinary office worker. It is impossible for him to have the authority to ask the police to shut down these surveillance devices.

What's more, he is not a policeman, so he has no right to interrogate.

"What on earth do you want to do?"

Ji Xinshui looked at Lin Xian warily.

The Donghai police shouldn't be so bold, right? To use force in this closed room? To use violence against themselves?

"Don't be nervous."

Lin Xian finally spoke.

As he untied the cotton thread that sealed the document bag, he said:
"All monitoring equipment has been turned off. Only the two of us know about the conversation here."

"So what?" Ji Xinshui snorted coldly:
"What on earth do you want to do?"

"I'm here to give you something."

Lin Xian untied all the sealing cotton threads.

then……

Under Ji Xinshui's shocked eyes, he pulled out the dark red invitation letter from the file bag!

With the wax seal facing upwards, the English words "Genius Club" reflected a strange and arrogant light under the incandescent light!
Lin Xian pressed the invitation letter with two fingers of his right hand and slowly pushed it in front of Ji Xinshui:

"Congratulations, Ji Xinshui."

Lin Xian raised his head and smiled at the other party's trembling pupils:
"Here's your...invitation!"
