Reborn in 1995, Criminal Investigation Records

"Want to guess what I found?" Zhou Yang's words completely shattered Wen Zhanbo's mental defenses. He didn't struggle for long before confessing everything.

He came from a wealthy family and had no worries about food or clothing. Relying on his good looks, he dropped out of school at a young age and drifted around in society. After his father, Wen Zhenhao, started a company, he had even less time to control him, so he sent him to a vocational school in Nanjiang—where his father's old classmate was teaching.

For Wen Zhanbo, it was just another city to have fun in. Besides, the school was located in a proper city, which was far more interesting than a county-level city like Ning'an.

One day, when he skipped class and came back, his classmate told him that someone from his hometown had come to visit. He then learned the news that his father had died and his mother had gone mad.

Later, through his mother's occasional moments of lucidity and his inquiries with the other party, he learned the whole story. Zhu Guolong and Deng Fangfang, those two vicious people, had actually brought his family to such a state.

He vowed revenge, so he went back to school and, through his father's old classmate, obtained Qiao Kai's personal information. He didn't dare to contact anyone from the same year, for fear that he would be exposed one day.

Next came the revenge.

"By the way, do you know how I made Deng Fangfang suspicious of Zhu Guolong and willing to poison him?" As he said this, he looked at Zhou Yang with bright eyes and raised his head slightly.

"It's just pretending to be radioactive material. You gave me that lead box, didn't you?" Zhou Yang replied casually without even moving.

Wen Zhanbo paused for a moment, his spirits becoming slightly low, but he still continued to speak in a detailed manner.

He first found out where Deng Fangfang worked, rented a place nearby, and observed her. Later, he discovered that she often rode a bicycle to and from get off work, so he stole her bicycle. Before they even got to know each other, she bought another one.

So he changed his approach, wanting to make the other person afraid of riding a bike, and also to create an opportunity for a chance encounter. He deliberately created a trap on the other person's likely route.

Sure enough, Deng Fangfang, who had been injured in the fall, came to him late at night. Based on his observation and analysis of her over the past few days, he easily won her favor.

But unexpectedly, his plan began at this time. One day, he discovered that Deng Fangfang was wearing a piece of jade. He then drugged the jade, making her feel listless and telling her that it was a consequence of radiation. He also made her a lead box.

She believed it and declared that Zhu Guolong still refused to forgive her. Since the other party was so heartless, then she shouldn't blame her for not showing any mercy.

Deng Fangfang asked him for some drugs, saying she wanted to poison Zhu Guolong. He refused. This stupid woman, the poisoning was so obvious, it would be easy to investigate. He hadn't even gotten his revenge yet, he wasn't going to go crazy with her.

By chance, he met Zhu Shuxuan and unexpectedly learned that his friend's family owned a pig farm with some hormone drugs. So he taught this method to Deng Fangfang.

One day, Deng Fangfang told him that she was secretly transferring Zhu Guolong's assets. The first thing she would do after Zhu Guolong died was to have Wen Zhanbo move in with her and leave a sum of money for his son. Her son was honest and would never amount to anything if he followed that good-for-nothing father.

Upon hearing this, Wen Zhanbo knew he couldn't wait any longer, so he cultivated some aflatoxin and stuffed it into his pillow. Deng Fangfang happily told him that he could sleep as soon as he put his head against the pillow, but he didn't seem to be feeling very well.

She wanted to get a medical check-up, but Wen Zhanbo stopped her. Firstly, he didn't want to disrupt their plans, and secondly, if the check-up revealed anything, Deng Fangfang's trust in him would be shattered.

One day, Deng Fangfang said that Zhu Guolong seemed to have started to doubt her, and it seemed that he was not eating the food she cooked anymore.

Upon hearing this, Wen Zhanbo went to scout the location and discovered that Deng Fangfang had made bread among the trash Zhu Guolong had thrown away. He knew he couldn't delay any longer.

Finally, Deng Fangfang coughed up blood, which must have been the effect of the aflatoxin. Wen Zhanbo decided not to wait any longer.

That day, he approached Deng Fangfang and together they devised a foolproof plan!

Zhou Yang looked at the other person's eager-to-show-off expression and a hint of impatience appeared on his face: "Just say what you want to say, what's wrong with you? It's just pretending to be Zhu Guolong, then stabbing Deng Fangfang, then having Deng Fangfang point it out, and finally Zhu Guolong committing suicide out of guilt, how novel is that!"

"Are you... are you a devil?" Wen Zhanbo slumped back, looking dejected.

That was his original plan, but when he was about to take action, he thought of Deng Fangfang's son. Why should he have planned and implemented it for so long, only to have the final result given to someone else? He was unwilling to accept that.

So he called Zhu Guolong and told him to leave, and then stabbed Deng Fangfang to death.

Then, he found the bicycle he had hidden and pedaled back as fast as he could, reviewing the whole process of the crime. In a moment of carelessness, he fell into the trap he had dug himself, and the tires and the front fork were deformed.

Although it wasn't far from his clinic, to ensure everything went smoothly, he took off the clothes he had worn when he was disguised as Zhu Guolong, wrapped the dagger in them, buried it somewhere, and planned to burn and clean it up after things calmed down.

This time, it was Liu Chengyu's turn. He glanced at Zhou Yang intentionally or unintentionally, his eyes filled with doubt. He had been stunned when he saw the report.

Where did this kid get that blood-stained clothes and the murder weapon with fingerprints?

"Zhu Shuxuan said that his bicycle had been repaired once, and combined with the old damage to Deng Fangfang's bicycle, I think it should be due to the same road. In addition, there was only that row of footprints in that section, so it's normal to find it!" Zhou Yang promptly explained to his master.

However, this simple explanation broke Wen Zhanbo's defenses. He didn't expect that the suspense he painstakingly created could be seen through at a glance by the other party.

In front of him, everything I did seemed quite ridiculous, didn't it?

"Wen Zhanbo, I have a question for you. Think it through before you answer!" Zhou Yang leaned forward slightly, looking into the other's eyes: "Zhu Shuxuan, did you meet her by chance?"

Logically speaking, Wen Zhanbo and Zhu Shuxuan's acquaintance should not have been long before Deng Fangfang, since it was Zhu Shuxuan who helped repair Deng Fangfang's broken bicycle.

Seeing the other person's shifty eyes and unnatural expression, Zhou Yang had his answer.

That's absolutely disgusting!

Seeing Zhou Yang stand up with a look of disgust, Wen Zhanbo suddenly leaned forward, dragging his handcuffs with a clanging sound: "Officer, does this count as a confession? Shouldn't that reduce my sentence?"

Zhou Yang ignored it. He already had the other party's testimony and evidence, so he wouldn't get involved in the rest of the trivial matters. For some reason, he suddenly felt homesick and missed his parents.

"Snap"

"Snap"

"Clap clap clap..."

As soon as he entered the hall, he heard a slow, steady applause. Zhou Yang looked at the people in the room, waved, and smiled, "No need for such a big show. Lucky you, lucky you!"

"What luck! When will I ever be as successful as you? I'd die happy then!" Wang Chao stepped forward, grabbed Zhou Yang's head with one arm, and said, "Quickly teach me how to solve cases!"

"It's not luck. This case is in your hands, and you'll solve it sooner or later!" Xiao Jiale looked at Zhou Yang with a serious expression.

The people standing next to him, including Fang Duo and Liu Chengyu who had just come out, couldn't help but nod in agreement.

"Master, the case is solved, can I go home now? Everything's gone bad!" he said, raising his arm and showing it off to everyone like a treasure.

"Screw you going back! It'll be dawn soon, let's keep going! After the case is handed over, we'll have an early shift!" Liu Chengyu patted Zhou Yang on the shoulder. "And while you're at it, teach us how to solve cases!"

Looking at the smile on Liu Chengyu's dark face, Zhou Yang nodded firmly. He really needed to be taught a lesson; he couldn't let Liu Chengyu repeat the same mistake in his life.

"You little brat, now that you've said that, you're getting cocky!" Liu Chengyu was taken aback and kicked Zhou Yang in the butt.

The room was filled with laughter and cheerful conversation, and the hour hand, following the movement of the minute hand, brought the time to exactly six o'clock in the morning.
