Espionage: I became sworn brothers with Zheng Yaoxian at the beginning, and became the Seventh Broth

Chapter Four: The novel method of solving the case shocked Zheng Yaoxian.

Ye Shaohong wants to solve the case himself and clear his name of the injustice.

But he didn't have a chance.

Confined in a cage, without freedom, Ye Shaohong was unable to put his many ideas into action.

We can only place our hopes on Zheng Yaoxian.

Fortunately, Zheng Yaoxian did not disappoint him.

Just as Ye Shaohong finished reviewing the case file and was about to pick up a cigarette from the table to light it and enjoy a puff, the interrogation room door was opened from the outside.

Zheng Yaoxian walked in with a smile on his face.

"Junior, I haven't let you down!" "I've found everything you asked for, and I've taken care of everything for you."

"The section chief has already said that as long as you can help us find the real culprit in the Ma family tragedy, the murder suspicion against you can be completely cleared."

"He will sign a release order then, clearing your name!"

Zheng Yaoxian brought back good news, but it also added a few doubts to Ye Shaohong's mind.

Why should we ask him to help solve the case?

Was it because they didn't have enough money to buy their lives?

It was the same section chief Zheng Yaoxian mentioned. After taking the money, he didn't want to take responsibility, so he added an extra condition.

Ye Shaohong was unable to make an accurate judgment.

He doesn't have the mind to think about these issues right now; his immediate priority is to get Zheng Yaoxian moving.

He immediately spoke up and told Zheng Yaoxian about his discovery.

He then raised his suspicions and conjectures about Zhao Xiufen.

That incredibly audacious idea immediately made Zheng Yaoxian frown. He didn't rush to respond to Ye Shaohong, but instead picked up the case file again and carefully reviewed it.

A moment later, he opened his mouth and asked a question.

What about the evidence?

If the facts are as Ye Shaohong suspects, then this case will no longer be a simple case of murder and annihilation of an entire family.

Rather, it was a major case decreed by imperial decree, capable of reaching the ears of the emperor.

If we can trace the source and uncover the hidden mastermind behind it all, not only will Zheng Yaoxian benefit greatly, but Ye Shaohong will also rise to prominence.

Ye Shaohong had anticipated this.

He made a request to Zheng Yaoxian, asking him to find several highly skilled knife-wielders to take with him to re-examine the bodies of the Ma family victims.

Carefully compare the knife marks.

Perhaps we can find some clues that were missed in the case files.

For example, the differences between schools of sword techniques.

Also, consider the angle and force of the cut.

Based on the deceased's posture before death and the surrounding furniture, information such as the murderer's height, weight, age, and gender should be able to be deduced.

This is a new approach to solving the case.

Zheng Yaoxian was so excited by what he heard that he couldn't help but slap the table and exclaim in admiration!

When Zheng Yaoxian looked at Ye Shaohong again, a strange charm had appeared in his eyes.

After praising Ye Shaohong a few more times, Zheng Yaoxian hurriedly left the interrogation room and went directly to the action department's office building.

He quickly found several skilled knife users. To increase the credibility of his testimony, Zheng Yaoxian cleverly obtained photos of the crime scene and called in the medical personnel stationed in the operations department.

They were taken to the morgue.

After carefully comparing and examining the victim's wounds, reviewing crime scene photos, and consulting with medical staff, it took Zheng Yaoxian more than ten minutes to finally obtain new evidence.

The moment Zheng Yaoxian pushed open the interrogation room door, a bright smile was still on his face.

He raised his arm, and the new evidence files and witness testimonies were placed in Ye Shaohong's hands at the same time.

"Your guess is correct."

“Zhao Xiufen is indeed a suspect. As you requested, I found several skilled knife users and had them re-examine the victim’s body.”

"In the end, they made the accurate judgment that there was only one perpetrator."

"Based on the location of the victims' wounds, the surrounding environment, and their condition at the time of death, we can draw a very clear conclusion: the murderer was no more than 1.6 meters tall and was also somewhat lacking in strength."

"There's a high probability that the killer is a woman!"

This new evidence clarifies many things. It not only confirms Ye Shaohong's suspicions but also clears him of the murder charge.

The reason is very simple.

Ye Shaohong is a full 1.8 meters tall and an active-duty soldier. If he wanted to kill someone with his height and strength, the wounds left on the victim would be even more vicious and ruthless.

This also illustrates a point.

Zhao Xiufen lied.

Her confession clearly describes that there were three perpetrators that night. They were all wearing cadet uniforms from the Central Military Academy.

In other words, the perpetrator was male.

Both of these testimonies, which had very clear purports, can now be proven to be false information.

Her statement that she saw another face at the crime scene, a key piece of evidence that had consistently pointed to Ye Shaohong as the murderer, has also lost its credibility.

The case has now taken a fundamental turn.

Without Ye Shaohong needing to explain, the suspicion of murder on him had already been cleared.

As for Zhao Xiufen, there are too many suspicious points about her, and she has now replaced Ye Shaohong as the prime suspect in this case.

It's time to expose her true colors.

"Senior!"

"This Zhao Xiufen...?"

At this moment, Zheng Yaoxian was sitting in the interrogation seat, leisurely drinking tea. Upon hearing Ye Shaohong's question, Zheng Yaoxian immediately raised his eyebrows.

"You little rascal, you're smart and quick-witted!"

"Are you trying to ask me when I'll let you go now that the real murderer has been exposed and you've been cleared of suspicion?"

"Don't worry!"

"Since I dared to show you this evidence, I had no intention of hiding anything from you."

"To tell you the truth, before coming to the interrogation room, I had already sent the authorities with men to St. Mary's Church Hospital to look for an opportunity to arrest Zhao Xiufen!"

"Judging by the time, they should be arriving soon!"

"As soon as Zhao Xiufen confesses, I will immediately ask the section chief to sign a release order and clear your name!"

Although Zheng Yaoxian's words were somewhat exaggerated and did not provide a clear answer, they still made Ye Shaohong secretly delighted when they reached his ears.

No other reason.

Simply because he saw hope.

Even a faint, flickering candlelight is better than an endless, dark night.

"Hey~, the senior found out!"

"It was my fault!"

"If it weren't for God's blessing that I met you today, I would have lost my life."

"This is a life-saving favor!"

"Shao Hong will keep this in mind."

"Senior, how about this? After the case is over, I'll host a banquet at Hongyan Restaurant and invite Instructor Chen to properly thank you. You can't refuse!"

It's said that favors come from all sides, and since Zheng Yaoxian helped him, Ye Shaohong was naturally grateful. Hosting a banquet as a gesture of thanks, and incidentally getting to know this future Sixth Brother of the Military Intelligence Bureau, was a good idea.

"You think you can just let this go with one drink?"

"You little rascal, you've got a dream come true!"

Zheng Yaoxian, with a cigarette between his fingers, pointed at Ye Shaohong again with a hint of annoyance, his playful expression growing even stronger.

"Senior..."

"I would love to give you a big gift, but I really don't have any money right now."

"Why don't you give me some time to write a letter home, and I'll thank you properly after I receive the money?"

Through this period of time, Ye Shaohong had roughly figured out Zheng Yaoxian's temperament. He was actually quite easy to talk to and very kind in his dealings with people.

That's why Ye Shaohong dared to act spoiled and lazy in front of him.

"What a joke!" "There's a whole waiting period for a banquet to be held as a thank-you gift?"

"You want to repay my favor? Actually, it's simple. Aren't you about to graduate? I happen to be short of a deputy captain for an action team. Instead of struggling to gain seniority in a local military unit after graduation, why don't you come and help me in the Special Service Department?"

"I can assure you that if you agree to come, I can make you a military commander within two to three years!"

"This is real profit, how about it... consider it?" [Please add to your favorites, please recommend, please do everything...]
