end of night

Shu Yiwen and Bai Xinglan were woken up by a phone call.

Bai Xinglan was actually a bit dead in sleep, she became conscious in a daze, turned over, but Shu Yiwen reached out and picked up the phone to connect.

Seeing that it was Wang Shi's call, she became a little more awake. Today, a ray of sunlight finally came out of the window, shining into the room, adding some warmth.

After Shu Yiwen connected, he heard Wang Shi's words, and immediately opened his eyes, and instantly lost his sleepiness.

"Xiao Shu, last night Ma San brought two of his subordinates to surrender themselves. We questioned them all night, and they confessed to their crimes, but they refused to reveal the reasons for the crimes, and even asked to see Bai Xinglan , why don't you bring her over later."

"Okay." Shu Yiwen replied, and then hung up the phone.

She propped herself up on the bed with her right hand and rubbed her forehead with one hand.

It was Shu Yiwen's call, so Bai Xinglan naturally didn't ask who was calling. She squinted her eyes slightly, obviously not feeling sleepy.

Shu Yiwen turned her head to look at Bai Xinglan, saw that she was slightly awake, and said in a low voice: "Last night, Ma San went to the police station to surrender, and even brought two of their subordinates to surrender, saying that they killed everyone, but Didn't say why, now they want to see you."

Bai Xinglan's eyes blinked lightly, she couldn't believe what she heard.

She propped herself up and sat up, smoothed her hair, and her voice was still a little hoarse when she just woke up: "Didn't you say you disappeared, why did you turn yourself in again?"

Shu Yiwen remembered that when she came home yesterday afternoon, she vaguely felt that someone was following her behind her. She always felt that all of these were inextricably linked, and she had a vague premonition in her heart.

Bai Xinglan got up immediately, she asked Shu Yiwen to lend her a piece of clothing, the sun was out today, she didn't want to wear it too thick.

Shu Yiwen gave her a red overcoat, unexpectedly it made her skin whiter than snow.

Before going out, Shu Yiwen said to Bai Xinglan: "You must follow me when you go out, you understand?"

Although Bai Xinglan didn't know the reason, he still nodded and agreed.

This was Bai Xinglan's first time going out in the past few days, she hadn't smelled the air outside for a long time, and the sun was so good today, she couldn't help but took a deep breath.

She suddenly took Shu Yiwen's hand, and said: "This way I won't get lost."

There was a faint smile on the corner of Shu Yiwen's lips. Although he didn't know why Ma San wanted to see Bai Xinglan, but if the murderer was really him, then surrendering himself could be regarded as comforting the spirit of the deceased.

Halfway through the walk, Shu Yiwen suddenly said, "Didn't you have breakfast yet, go buy some breakfast first."

Then Bai Xinglan was dragged into a bakery by Shu Yiwen.

Shu Yiwen suddenly put his arms around Bai Xinglan's shoulders, pretending to be picking bread, as if giving her advice: "Just after we crossed the overpass, someone followed us. Let's try to pretend that nothing happened, and then walked around to the surveillance camera. A little more obvious, do you understand?"

Bai Xinglan reached out to pick up the bread, she picked up a bag and turned to Bai Xinglan and said, "I like this kind of whole wheat, and I don't like it too sweet."

There was a smile in her eyes, and Shu Yiwen knew that she understood, with a flash of admiration in her eyes, he followed her and said, "Why don't you buy sweet ones, and I'll buy sweeter ones?"

"Then I'll go pay." Bai Xinglan picked up two bags of bread and turned to pay, while Shu Yiwen turned around and pretended to wait, looking at the bakery's door as if nothing had happened.

A tall, thin man walked past the bakery and looked inside.

That kind of look doesn't look like buying bread, but looking for something in a bakery.

As soon as he raised his head, he happened to meet Shu Yiwen's gaze, and his eyes met.

His whole body seemed to be stiff for a while, and then he turned his head to pretend that nothing happened, he was just an ordinary passerby.

Shu Yiwen lowered his head and smiled, Bai Xinglan finished buying the bread at this time, gave the red bean bread to Shu Yiwen, and they walked out of the bakery together.

"Go straight to the police station."

"what?"

Shu Yiwen opened the bag of bread, took a piece of bread and took a small bite: "He's exposed, I dare not follow."

Bai Xinglan still had a bewildered expression on her face, she followed Shu Yiwen, and slowly walked to the gate of the police station.

Glancing back, Bai Xinglan dared not speak until he was at the gate of the police station, and whispered: "Sister, you seem to be acting in a movie..."

Shu Yiwen glanced at her, "Life is much more exciting than movies."

They entered the police station together, the police station was very quiet, Bai Xinglan's heart calmed down, and he began to think about how to deal with it later.

Walking to the criminal investigation brigade, some of the colleagues inside were lying on the table to take a nap. Shu Yiwen's voice was very low. When she came in, her steps were very light. A colleague looked at her and mouthed three words: "Interrogation room."

Shu Yiwen nodded, smiled, and then made an OK gesture. Bai Xinglan stood beside her and followed her.

Wang Shi's eyes were actually a little red after staying up all night. He looked very solemn after seeing Bai Xinglan, "Miss Bai, although Ma San pleaded guilty, he didn't explain the reason clearly. He said he wanted to see you, so we can only I invited you here."

Bai Xinglan's smile was decent, she glanced at Wang Shi, full of gratitude: "Thank you for working so hard for the safety of people's lives."

A rare smile appeared on Wang Shi's nervous face, and he said, "I'll go in with you."

Bai Xinglan nodded, glanced at Shu Yiwen, and gave her the bread in his hand.

Shu Yiwen watched from the outside, and Ma San was sitting alone in the interrogation room with handcuffs on his hands, looking very sluggish.

Seeing Bai Xinglan coming in, his eyes lit up, and he raised his head and said, "You've come."

Bai Xinglan sat down with him expressionlessly, her eyes were cold.

Standing outside and watching, Shu Yiwen frowned slightly. She raised her hand and clenched it to her lips, with the same serious expression as Wang Shi inside.

"Tell me why you want to kill me."

Bai Xinglan knew that Ma San was coming after her, but he was lucky enough to escape, but the servants in his family were implicated because of him.

Ma San sneered: "Didn't I say at the beginning that I wanted to kill Zhuang Yishen's family, now that Zhuang Yishen is dead, and you are the only one left, don't I want to fulfill my original vow?"

He seemed to put life and death aside, Bai Xinglan shook his head, but said: "That's not right."

Wang Shi turned his head to look at Bai Xinglan, apparently not knowing why she was wrong.

"Half a year ago your place was taken over by Wan Chaofeng. From then on, you recognized him as your eldest brother, and naturally you also worked for him. I don't know why you disappeared for two days, but you don't necessarily kill people."

Although it was just a guess, Bai Xinglan saw that Ma San's face suddenly changed badly, and Wang Shi also changed his face beside him, looking at Bai Xinglan with more inquiring eyes.

"Who are you taking the blame for?" Bai Xinglan looked into Ma San's eyes, and seeing him dodge, he leaned back on the chair and stopped talking.

Wang Shi asked Ma San, "Do you know the consequences of interfering with the police handling the case?"

Ma San clenched his handcuffed hands nervously. He seemed to be struggling with something in his heart, and then shook his head violently: "I confess all the crimes. I and my two subordinates killed the man. The motive for the killing was because Zhuang Yishen provoked me before, and I threatened to kill his whole family, that's all."

Wang Shi didn't speak any more, he just asked Bai Xinglan to go out with him, and then closed the door of the interrogation room.

Bai Xinglan frowned slightly. She looked at Shu Yiwen in front of her, and asked, "Does Ma San's reaction just now mean that he wants to confess guilt?"

"How do you know that he came to replace the crime?" Shu Yiwen asked his own question, Wang Shi obviously wanted to ask this question too, and silently looked at Bai Xinglan.

"In fact, I just wanted to defraud him. Many people in Zhuang Yishen's office told him about it before, so I naturally remember it."

"..."

Bai Xinglan said again: "And one thing is very strange, since he has already surrendered himself, why would someone follow us?"

"Tracking?" Wang Shi looked at Shu Yiwen.

Shu Yiwen nodded and said: "Yes, since I came out of the police station yesterday, I felt that someone was following me, but I got rid of it. After crossing the bridge this morning, I went to the bakery to buy breakfast with her, and saw that person's face Face."

"Go to the forensics department for a portrait." Shu Yiwen was a criminal policeman, Wang Shi understood it as soon as he talked to her, Shu Yiwen nodded, and Wang Shi said to Bai Xinglan again: "Miss Bai, can we talk?"

Bai Xinglan said to Wang Shi: "I haven't had breakfast yet, can we talk while eating?" Then he took the bread from Shu Yiwen.

Wang Shi said yes, and then led her to his office.

Poured a glass of water for Bai Xinglan, Bai Xinglan said thank you, then tore the bread with his hands and ate it in small bites.

"Miss Bai, Xiao Shu used to be my subordinate. I am very relieved that she protects you. Now I have a few questions to ask you, and I hope you can answer me truthfully." Wang Shi tried his best to soften his attitude, now The lady in front of me is not a suspect, but a victim of this vicious murder.

Bai Xinglan put the bag of bread on Wang Shi's table, took a sip of the water Wang Shi poured, and said, "Just ask."

"When I went to your house with Xiao Shu yesterday, Xiao Shu took out a black box, what's in it?"

Bai Xinglan thought to himself that he was indeed an old criminal policeman with many years of experience in handling cases, so he asked the most critical point of this case: what exactly were they looking for.

They all saw Ma San's demeanor just now, Ma San definitely concealed something and did not dare to say anything, and where he went during the two days of his disappearance, and why he came to surrender, these are all mysteries.

This case cannot be concluded just because of Ma San's surrender. There are still many things to be discovered.
