Unbelievable! The Blond Rookie Is the Chief Detective - Chapter 40

His recent whereabouts have not been unusual.

But during these days he did one more thing: he buried his mother’s ashes.

They checked and found that, apart from the urn containing ashes, he also had other items needed for commemorating the dead, but he did not carry any large items with him.

However, if the urn doesn’t contain ashes, then 800,000 yuan isn’t a lot; 100,000 yuan per bundle, so that’s only eight bundles.

Even if he can’t put all 800,000 in the urn, he can spread some out on his person. It’s winter now, and everyone is wearing cotton-padded clothes, so carrying 100,000 to 200,000 on his person is no problem at all.

But he wouldn’t just throw away his mother’s ashes, would he? Most people wouldn’t do something like that.

Su Xiaoxiao recalled the incense burner she had seen in his house, which was filled with incense ash, grayish-white ash, which looked almost like ashes.

Therefore, the incense burner may actually contain his mother’s ashes.

Using an incense burner to hold ashes and an urn to hold money may seem absurd, but it’s actually a good method.

Su Xiaoxiao whispered the words “cemetery” in his ear.

Seeing Liu Jie’s expression, she knew she had guessed correctly.

“Looks like I guessed right, the money is hidden in your mother’s grave.” Su Xiaoxiao said this to the monitoring room.

“receive.”

Ye Jiuzhou happily instructed his team members to set off for the cemetery immediately.

“You didn’t know that just now?!” Liu Jie gritted his teeth and looked at Su Xiaoxiao.

“Actually, I just thought of this myself, so I’m verifying it with you. Don’t think I’m bluffing you. Even if you don’t admit it, we’ll still investigate. It’s only a matter of time. You can’t escape it. Now you only have one path: confess everything you’ve done. Your voluntary confession will be beneficial when sentencing you. If you can also provide the police with clues about other people’s crimes, it can be considered as meritorious service.”

If you don’t confess, and others do, you’ll be left out.

What does it mean when someone confesses?

“He’s your accomplice.” Wan Yan continued, “Don’t you know what your vocational school bully did a few years ago?! Don’t think that just because you’ve removed the traces we can’t find out.”

You take advantage of the release of celebrity movies, impersonating fan clubs to create movie support groups, and defraud fans of money under the pretext of helping their idols boost pre-sales and fill theaters.

Not only that, you also lured fans who couldn’t afford much money to take out nude loans for them, which had serious consequences. One fan went insane, and another died.

Let me tell you, your accomplices have all been arrested by us.

Don’t think it’s just because you stole money that we suddenly arrested you.

In my opinion, you’re just too greedy. Didn’t you stop more than three years ago? Wouldn’t it have been better if you each started doing legitimate business? Maybe then we wouldn’t have been able to find anything.

But you are all insatiable and insist on forcing Huang Man’s family to repay the money. They borrowed 200,000 yuan, but you made them repay nearly 400,000 yuan in total.

That’s bad enough. You promised to return everything, but you insisted on keeping something for yourself. After some time, you went to Huang Man to ask for the money back. You pushed the honest man too far, and something bad was bound to happen. You were caught red-handed.

Now they’ve both been arrested. Zhang Tianhua and Du Le have confessed. They said that back then, your group’s scams and the naked loan scheme were your idea; you forced them to do it, they had no choice.

Listening to Wan Yan’s nonsense, Su Xiaoxiao secretly gave him a thumbs up. The one caught red-handed was clearly Hammer, but his set of truths and lies, his twisted storytelling, was sure to fool people.

Sure enough, Liu Jie was so angry that he gritted his teeth.

“These bastards, everything was my idea. I told them that it’s one thing to scam some money from fans, that fans don’t care about that little bit of money, and they’re willing to be frugal for their idols, so nothing serious will happen. I never let them do any naked loans. I only found out afterward, and that’s why we broke up.”

And I told them to stop, and they agreed. I had no idea they later went to ask the other party for money back.

Something that’s more likely to cause trouble than to accomplish anything.

“They’re telling you something different. And among you, only you know how to do this kind of thing online. Without you, they simply can’t pull it off. They’re all saying it was your idea, but you’re all alone. If there’s no evidence, we’ll definitely believe the one with more people.”

“I have evidence. I have audio and video recordings of when I had a falling out with them back then,” Liu Jie said urgently.

“Where’s the evidence? We’ve searched your computer; you formatted it so thoroughly.”

“It’s not on my computer, it’s in my stall at the electronics market. There’s an alarm clock ornament in the counter, and the USB drive is inside.”

Ye Jiuzhou hadn’t expected the interrogation to go so smoothly; not only did they get a confession, but they also obtained evidence.

What are we waiting for? Arrest them!

That night, police sirens wailed incessantly in Wutong City as police cars sped away and returned.

The team members were working like crazy, searching Yaohua Technology Company overnight, dragging all the relevant personnel out of their beds, and bringing them all back to the station.

The people we brought back need to be interrogated as soon as possible; they must all be stunned by their sudden arrest.

Strike while the iron is hot. They have experience in handling cases involving a large number of people and have plenty of ways to make them fight like dogs, ensuring that everyone gets their comeuppance and no one can escape.

People were coming and going all night, and there weren’t enough places to hold them.

Jiang Qing asked, “Should we release Wu Xuejun? He’s been locked up for several days now.”

“Then let him go.” Ye Jiuzhou was too busy to bother with a small-time thug.

Wu Xuejun was released, and when he saw the scene, he laughed, “Hey, Captain Ye, there’s a big case.”

“Get out of here, don’t get in my way, or I’ll lock you up again!” Ye Jiuzhou glared at him.

“Okay, okay, I’ll get out of here right away. The food in jail is free, but you get tired of it after a while.” Wu Xuejun knew he couldn’t mess with Captain Ye right now, or he might really be locked up again.

A wise man doesn’t fight a losing battle, so Wu Xuejun quickly made his escape.

As he walked out of the police station, he stretched and took out his phone from his pocket—the one he had just returned to him.

He opened the photo album and looked at it, a smug smile spreading across his face. The things were still there.

I selected a photo in my album and was about to click send, but then I hesitated.

You can’t use this phone number. Switch to another number and click send. Hehe, even a cunning rabbit has three burrows.

Seeing the notification that the message had been successfully sent, he thought, “Done!” and hummed a little tune as he swayed forward.

After a while, my phone beeped with a message notification.

Upon opening it, I saw a text message from an unknown number: “What do you want?”
