Seeing the crime scene flashbacks made me the darling of the police station.

Chapter 65 Birthmark on the Back

“I don’t think Zhou Lei wants to deal with the other people involved back then personally. If he still wanted to deal with others, he would hide the bodies of Han Longyu and the other two. The longer he hides them, the more time he will have. If he is not exposed to the police, he will have more time to take revenge on others.”

“Continue,” Zhuang Yanzheng said.

“Zhou Lei was able to leave no trace at the crime scene, which is enough to show that he is very smart and meticulous,” Su Miaoyi said. “He deliberately exposed the body because he wanted to uncover what happened back then. He needed a fair person to give him justice and his mother justice. Even if this kind of serial murder case is handled by the branch office at first, it will eventually be transferred to the city bureau. You are the person he chose.”

“He could have come directly to me; there was no need for him to go through all this trouble,” Zhuang Yanzheng said.

“But if we had approached you from the beginning, what would have been the final sentence for Han Longyu and the other two? Twelve years have passed, and they were all minors back then. No one would have paid with their life,” Su Miaoyi said, looking at him.

Zhuang Yanzheng's lips moved slightly but he didn't speak. He glanced at her.

“Every step we take now is probably part of Zhou Lei’s plan,” Su Miaoyi said. “He also knows that his own power is too small, and there are some people he can’t even meet.”

Being led around like this isn't a pleasant feeling.

"So we're back to the same question." Su Miaoyi narrowed her eyes. "The plan has been set up, so why didn't Zhou Lei leave last night?"

Zhuang Yanzheng suddenly stopped the car on the side of the road.

The two looked at each other and simultaneously thought of the same person.

"His mother."

The two people said those three words at the same time.

Zhuang Yanzheng immediately contacted the Municipal Bureau and asked them to check the location of Zhou Lei's mother's grave at the household registration office.

Having located the exact location, Zhuang Yanzheng instructed Qi Feng to lead a group to Song Lichun's house.

He and Su Miaoyi went to the cemetery.

When they arrived, Zhou Lei was standing in front of his mother's grave.

Sensing someone approaching, Zhou Lei glanced at them, then looked at the tombstone in front of him.

Zhuang Yanzheng took a few steps forward, then threw his wallet to the policeman behind him, asking him to buy him a bouquet of flowers.

Su Miaoyi and Zhuang Yanzheng approached each other.

Zhou Lei didn't look at them: "You arrived much faster than I expected."

Zhuang Yanzheng clicked his tongue: "Did you really think we were 'incompetent'?"

Zhou Lei chuckled: "Whether he's truly incompetent or not is still too early to say."

Zhuang Yanzheng sighed, "That's really harsh of you."

Zhou Lei remained silent.

Neither Su Miaoyi nor Zhuang Yanzheng spoke for a moment.

The policeman who went to buy flowers returned quickly.

She gave Zhuang Yanzheng her wallet and flowers.

Zhuang Yanzheng walked a few steps to the tombstone, bent down and placed the flowers in front of it: "I'm sorry you've suffered so much over the years. This time, I will definitely give you justice."

Zhou Lei looked at him, a slight flicker in his eyes.

After placing the flowers properly, Zhuang Yanzheng took a few steps back and stood next to Zhou Lei.

Zhou Lei said, “There’s a senior in our lab who used to be your classmate. He said there’s a guy named Zhuang Yanzheng in the city’s criminal investigation team. He’s super rich, but instead of being a proper young master, he insisted on becoming a criminal police officer. When he’s solving cases, he’s fearless. He only has cases in his eyes and is not interested in anything else. Someone tried to bribe him with a seven-figure sum of money, and he told them that a seven-figure sum is still money and they shouldn’t humiliate him.”

Su Miaoyi looked at Zhuang Yanzheng.

Zhuang Yanzheng: "."

“I’ve looked into you,” Zhou Lei said. “I hope I haven’t misjudged you.”

Zhuang Yanzheng didn't say anything, only saying, "Let's go."

Zhou Lei then looked at his mother's tombstone.

He didn't move.

Zhuang Yanzheng didn't urge him either.

After a while, Zhou Lei looked away, bowed to the tombstone, then turned to Zhuang Yanzheng and extended his hands.

Zhuang Yanzheng glanced down at the tombstone, then at the photo, but didn't take out the handcuffs. "Let's go." Zhou Lei's fingers twitched, and he followed Zhuang Yanzheng a few steps. "Thank you."

Zhuang Yanzheng remained silent.

Su Miaoyi and another policeman walked behind Zhou Lei.

They surrounded Zhou Lei.

Upon reaching the car, Zhuang Yanzheng handcuffed him and took him back to the Municipal Public Security Bureau.

After arriving at the Municipal Public Security Bureau, Zhuang Yanzheng went to the interrogation room.

Seeing that there was nothing else she could help with, Su Miaoyi took a taxi home.

When we arrived at the entrance of the residential area, I got out of the car and saw Jiang Junrui.

When Jiang Junrui saw her, he immediately got out of the car and walked towards her: "I've finally waited for you."

Su Miaoyi's lips twitched: "What do you mean? Have you been waiting for a long time?"

“I’ve been coming to check on things every day for the past two days,” Jiang Junrui said. “After all, some people don’t reply to messages or answer phone calls.”

Su Miaoyi frowned and said four words: "You really have a lot of free time."

Jiang Junrui: "."

Su Miaoyi had only slept for half an hour that morning, and now that the matter was resolved, she felt dizzy, especially since she really couldn't figure out what this person was up to.

"Okay, let's not beat around the bush and be more sincere with each other. Tell me what you really want from me. I'm a kind-hearted person, and I'll consider doing anything I can."

Jiang Junrui looked at her and said, "You're not being sincere at all. You keep saying you've never met me. How can I be sincere?"

“I really have never seen you before, and I’ve never even been to Jiangcheng,” Su Miaoyi said. “You must have mistaken me for someone else.”

Jiang Junrui nodded: "Okay, you say I mistook you for someone else. Then tell me, what were you doing in June? And where were you? Especially in the latter half of June."

"I," Su Miaoyi, wanted to say that I was at home, in Jinrong Community.

But she suddenly realized she couldn't remember what she did at home in June.

She was working in the first half of June, and resigned in the middle of June.

and then?
In July and August, she was at home writing a novel. While writing, she would hear the live streamer upstairs, so she wore headphones every night.

When she's not writing novels, she listens to the live stream from upstairs.

During the day, I go out for a walk and eat outside the neighborhood.

Then she felt like a lot more things had appeared in her head.

She always thought that after she resigned, June would pass by just like July and August.

But now, upon closer reflection, her memory of late June is very vague.

I have memories from mid-June, May, and April.

But why is late June blurry, or even blank?

Just as Su Miaoyi remained silent, Jiang Junrui said again, "I admit my mistake. So you don't have a red birthmark like a cloud on your back, right?"

Su Miaoyi's pupils trembled slightly.

The location of a birthmark is not a particularly private area.

She wears slightly backless clothes in the summer, but the birthmark is not visible.

Unless it's a dress with a very low back.

But she didn't cross it.

Almost no one knew she had a birthmark on her back.

She glanced at Jiang Junrui, said nothing, and strode into the residential area.
　There is no romantic subplot.

　　There was no romantic storyline before.

　　The matter of seeing the birthmark will be explained later.

　　Goodnight everybody
