Chapter 218: Alibi
Qinghe City.
Bar Street.
Its proximity to the city center and the Qinghe University of Science and Arts is the main reason Maishan Road became a bar street.
Every month, new bars are renovated here, and owners leave in dejection. But most of the time, it is the profitable owners and shareholders who reinvest their money into renovations.
Of course, the street isn't just bars; various dining bars, music bars, hot pot restaurants, new-style fast-food joints, and even milk tea and coffee shops are all dazzling.
Walking on Maishan Road feels like walking through a first-tier city a year or two ago. All kinds of trendy things are overwhelming.
Wu Wu Junhao, dressed in plain clothes, walked in the middle of the street with two team members, completely indifferent to the gazes of others.
He was here to arrest Bai Bai Yuequn, the suspect who killed Yuan Yuan Yutang.
As the third son of the Jianyuan Company, and during the inheritance war, his every move was being watched. All his romantic affairs, or lovers and rivals, had long been thoroughly investigated.
Of course, the third son, Yuan Yuan Yutang, didn't care much about these reputations regarding his private conduct; his persona was originally that of a prodigal son who had turned over a new leaf. As long as he was willing to do proper work and stop hanging out with gangs, his father was already very satisfied.
It was rare that Yuan Yuan Yutang was also bisexual, and he met many like-minded people at his daily parties, which made Yuan Yuan Jiansheng even happier, providing the foundation for the third son to compete for the inheritance.
Bai Bai Yuequn was Yuan Yuan Yutang's old flame, having been entangled with him for four or five years, even surviving the most difficult period of coming out. Bai Bai Yuequn's only requirement for Yuan Yuan Yutang was for them to be each other's only one.
Yuan Yuan Yutang would always agree to Bai Bai Yuequn's demands, only to be caught violating his promise shortly after, followed by intense arguments, frantic venting, and then sweet happiness and solemn promises...
This repeated over and over, so much so that outsiders thought they enjoyed this process.
Bai Bai Yuequn's height, his habit of wearing height-increasing shoes and large shoes, and even his weight and age, all fit the range defined by Jiang Yuan, and he was the only suspect.
After asking technical reconnaissance and cybersecurity to confirm his location, Wu Wu Junhao immediately brought his men.
Three people felt a bit few, but in a place like Bar Street, which is somewhat chaotic, complex, and prone to accidents, Wu Wu Junhao preferred streamlined personnel arrangements and a large number of reserve teams.
Therefore, he placed 10 people outside the bar street and had three teams of 10 people following behind, but he only brought two fierce teammates weighing 90 kilograms and capable of a 120-kilogram bench press by his side.
For ordinary people, training a bench press to 1.3 times their body weight might only be for showing off in the gym.
For members of the First Squadron, training to this level makes you a high-level combatant who can handle two people alone.
What is meant by "one man doing the work of two" is that when making an arrest, one person can pin two suspects against a wall and leave them unable to move.
Wu Wu Junhao once even clamped a criminal suspect with one arm while choking another criminal suspect with his other hand, lifting them high and making them scream.
Wu Wu Junhao and his team members had conspicuous figures, and walking on the bar street, they were soon noticed by several girls.
The young women followed behind Wu Wu Junhao and the others, just considering how to strike up a conversation, when they saw the three men turn a corner and enter a bar named Blue Star Alliance.
This is a famous gay bar in Qinghe City.
Several girls were heartbroken and kept communicating on their phones:
"What's wrong with all the good men?"
"So, you end up liking the same sex after working out for so long, right?"
"People used to say the end of a bar is a gay bar; I didn't believe it, but now I do..."
Wu Wu Junhao didn't know about this scene outside. The moment he entered the Blue Star Alliance, he climbed to the upper floor according to the information he had obtained.
According to the news he received, Bai Bai Yuequn had been in the bar all day today.
Part of the time in the office, part of the time appearing inside and outside the bar, and many people had seen him.
Wu Wu Junhao didn't know what his psychological state was, but his current task was to make the arrest.
The three of them went straight to the office floor, where a handsome bodyguard in a suit stopped them to ask questions.
Wu Wu Junhao took out his ID to show the other party, took off the other party's headset, and said: "If you want to go to jail, go ahead and tip them off. You're just working for someone; do you want to go in and pedal a sewing machine?"
The handsome and fierce-looking bodyguard immediately cowered and stepped aside, saying: "I didn't want to tip them off."
"Good, what's your name?" Wu Wu Junhao saw that he had the upper hand and wasn't in a hurry to go in.
"Wang Yan."
"Good, Wang Yan, how many people are inside?"
"There must be dozens of people in that office area."
"Where is Bai Bai Yuequn? Draw it for me..."
Wu Wu Junhao took out a notebook and questioned the bodyguard on the spot in the blind spot of the camera at the corner of the stairs.
After a while, someone came out and shouted impatiently: "Wang Yan, Wang Yan..."
Wu Wu Junhao stepped forward, easily wrapped his arms around him, pulled him into his embrace to check his ID, and asked: "Did you see clearly?"
"Saw clearly."
"Criminal police are working; don't look for trouble for yourself. You guys stay here obediently."
Wu Wu Junhao didn't say another word and led his two team members straight in.
The bar's office area was no different from an ordinary office building. A group of people in shirts were writing and calculating, making calls, or holding meetings. Seeing Wu Wu Junhao in plain clothes coming in and out, most just took a look.
When they were almost at Bai Bai Yuequn's door, someone asked: "Who are you looking for?"
"Found them." Wu Wu Junhao replied without looking back, opened the door to the general manager's office, and went in.
Bai Bai Yuequn was sitting properly, looking at the few people with a mix of surprise and expectation.
"Bai Bai Yuequn?" Wu Wu Junhao asked.
"Yes." Bai Bai Yuequn stood up.
"We are from the Ningtai County Public Security Bureau. Now, according to the law, we are..." Wu Wu Junhao stared at Bai Bai Yuequn while showing his ID and documents. His two team members flanked him from left and right until they reached Bai Bai Yuequn's side and handcuffed him, only then did everyone breathe a sigh of relief.
"Tell everyone I'm fine, it's been explained clearly, I'll be back soon, and the business here will continue as usual." Bai Bai Yuequn turned his head to arrange things as if he were fine.
Wu Wu Junhao didn't care. He had seen many such people; they were quite calm when being handcuffed, pretending to arrange work, but by the second or third day, when they truly entered the detention center and ate their first meal there, only then would they shed tears—the so-called "not shedding tears until seeing the coffin."
Wu Wu Junhao checked Bai Bai Yuequn's arms and other areas, hoping to find some scars, but failed.
Bai Bai Yuequn let him check and then said: "You are looking for me because of Yuan Yuan Yutang's matter, right?"
"After we go back, the case officer will tell you." Wu Wu Junhao didn't want to discuss the case with the suspect at this time; it was too dangerous, not only easy to leak information but also easy to make the suspect emotionally agitated and difficult to control.
Bai Bai Yuequn, however, said: "I know Yuan Yuan Yutang had an accident last night. If it's because of Yuan Yuan Yutang's matter, I have an alibi."
Wu Wu Junhao couldn't help but turn to look at Bai Bai Yuequn.
In a criminal case, an alibi is very powerful evidence. Once confirmed, it can basically rule out a person's suspicion.
And being able to propose an alibi meant that Bai Bai Yuequn was indeed prepared.
So, regardless of whether he had an alibi or not, this suspect had to be treated with caution.
One hour later.
Huang Huang Qiangmin, Jiang Yuan, and the others all rushed to the case-handling center of the Qianjin District Criminal Police Brigade in Qinghe City.
Lei Xin, the captain of the district criminal police brigade, briefed them on the situation:
"As it stands, the credibility of Bai Bai Yuequn's alibi is relatively high. At the time of the crime, he was watching a movie with a boyfriend; there is a ticket purchase record and surveillance video of them entering and leaving."
"The surveillance inside the screening room is broken."
"After the movie ended, the two opened a room at the Wanda Hotel next to the cinema, and there are also front desk records and surveillance videos."
"In addition, no obvious skin damage was found on Bai Bai Yuequn, which is different from our prior judgment."
"Should we expand the suspect list? Yuan Yuan Yutang must know a lot of people. In his position, offending people is normal. Shouldn't we also include the people he came into contact with at work?"
Lei Xin's suggestion was also reasonable. For an heir who died in an inheritance war, it was a bit absurd that his suspect list only included lovers and rivals.
Even if the killer was passionate, it could also be caused by grudges at work.
Don't some people in the workplace suffer oppression and psychological trauma that is no less deep and painful than a breakup?
Lei Xin felt that he had several targets he could fantasize about striking.
Huang Huang Qiangmin also had to admit that the other party made sense, and they started whispering to each other.
Yuan Yuan Yutang's life experience was quite rich.
If you exclude the factor of a crime of passion, Yuan Yuan Yutang's early history in the underworld was also a mess. The people he offended and the people he hurt were beyond verification.
But judging from some records of fights, intense conflicts were inevitable in Yuan Yuan Yutang's early life.
If all these factors were to be considered, a large number of personnel might be needed to investigate and verify the relevant list.
Jiang Yuan listened for a while and didn't hear anything new, so he said: "I think there are still areas worth investigating regarding Bai Bai Yuequn."
Several people stopped unconsciously and looked at Jiang Yuan.
Jiang Yuan still had quite a few halos on his head.
Jiang Yuan said: "First of all, I carefully studied Bai Bai Yuequn's footprints, and they are still very consistent with the situation at the crime scene."
"Second, Bai Bai Yuequn has no wounds, but his finger joints have calluses; he should have practiced."
"In addition, according to the earlier questioning of the hourly worker, no items like towels were lost at the crime scene, indicating that the killer might have indeed killed one person first without getting injured, which instead shows that the killer has a certain combat ability."
"Third. The killer's murder time happened to be during the movie screening. Although there is a certain coincidence, the surveillance in the screening room was also broken; this degree of coincidence is too high."
Lei Xin said at this time: "We questioned his boyfriend, and he also proved that at the time of the crime, Bai Bai Yuequn was watching a movie with him."
Jiang Yuan was silent for a moment; the existence of a witness indeed made his speculation lack persuasiveness.
Huang Huang Qiangmin said at this time: "I think the boyfriend's testimony can be asked in more detail, such as whether he fell asleep halfway, whether he went out, check the economic dealings between the two, and understand the relationship between the two from the side. The possibility of perjury still exists."
He had experienced many cases and heard too many absurd excuses.
Lei Xin agreed and said: "The person is still giving a statement; I will let them ask more." ===== CHAPTER 219 =====
