Although Hongmu confessed his crime and the crime team decided to close the case with this result, Su Luoheng still had many questions in his mind.
For example, the end of the thread behind the door.
In response to this question, Su Luoheng asked Hongmu, but Hongmu only glanced at him faintly, as if he was hostile, and said mockingly: "Officer Su, aren't you very good? Then you can guess by yourself."
After removing the disguise, Mahogany didn't bother to show her kindness, often sitting sideways on a chair, or looking sideways at the wall, as if there was something special on the wall that could attract her. While sitting across from her, Su Luoheng seemed to have nothing, or in her eyes, he was just a talking trash can.
At least in the eyes that Hongmu occasionally turned towards him, Su Luoheng felt this feeling.
Since he was already a murderer, Hongmu didn't want to spend any more words, watching Su Luoheng confused about the clues in the case, as if he was admiring the clown.
It's up to you to toss.
I won't say anything anyway.
Redwood's attitude made Su Luoheng decide to find out on his own. But it also made him sure that there must be other stories hidden in it.
From Fan Chu and others, Su Luoheng can be sure that Hongmu and Fancheng have known each other before, and Lanxiang and Fancheng have no acquaintance. Fancheng's money for more than a year has basically come from mahogany. Therefore, Hongmu wanted to kill Fancheng.
Fancheng first threatened Hongmu because of the set of photos, but how did Hongmu meet Fancheng and be stunned by him, Hongmu didn't mention a word.
Su Luoheng decided to go find Lan Xiang.
Lan Xiang has been released home because he is not guilty.
"Knock, knock..." Su Luoheng knocked gently on the door. He had already contacted Lan Xiang before coming.
Because of this accident, Lan Xiang's unit leader gave her a week's leave to calm her mood and restore her state. It was not Fan Cheng's death and this incident that really hit Lan Xiang, but Hongmu's "betrayal". She never understood why Mahogany hated her.
But sometimes, you can't figure out the human mind.
It's like meeting a stranger on the side of the road. You will use your instinct to guess whether he is a kind and gentle person or a irritable person, even if a person may not have spoken from beginning to end, just sitting quietly. There, you will also give him a label, a label that is totally unreasonable, but intuitive.
The same is true for familiar people.
Xia Ruo told her that Hongmu used Lanxiang as a barrier to kill Fan Cheng and then plant the blame.
At that time, Lan Xiang firmly believed that Xia Ruo was lying to her. After confirming Xia Ruo's serious attitude, Lan Xiang determined that it was another rhetoric used by Hongmu to help her escape the punishment of the law, and insisted on defending for Hongmu.
Across the door, Lan Xiang asked, "Who?"
"It's me, Su Luoheng." Self-reported.
The door lock was unlocked, and Su Luoheng saw Lan Xiang again after a three-day absence.
She was wearing a white half-sleeved nightdress, stepped on flip flops, and her hair was loose.
"Officer Su, hello." Lan Xiang turned sideways and greeted Su Luoheng in the door.
Su Luoheng nodded and smiled: "Miss Lan, take the liberty to interrupt."
Lan Xiang’s sofa is off-white, and Lan Xiang invited Su Luoheng to sit down.
"Officer Su, you said you have something to ask me on the phone, what is it?" Tea was already prepared, Lan Xiang poured a glass of water and put it in front of Su Luoheng.
"Thank you." Su Luoheng accepted the teacup and thanked him, and then said: "There are still some details about Hongmu's killing of Fancheng, so I want to see if you can provide any clues."
Speaking of mahogany, Lan Xiang's eyes darkened.
At that time, Lan Xiang didn't believe Xia Ruo's words in any way, and determined that Hongmu was committing the crime for her and asked to see Hongmu. No way, Xia Ruo had to ask for Su Luoheng's permission to let Lan Xiang meet Mahogany.
Across a table, Mahogany sat opposite her with his hands tied in handcuffs. Still so smart and beautiful.
"Redwood..." Lan Xiang looked at her distressedly, and said: "Why are you so stupid? When are you going to commit the crime for me, do you know that you will die like this?"
Mahogany lifted his eyes and glanced at Lan Xiang, without the slightest kindness and gentleness in his eyes.
It's not acting, it's total boredom.
"Fool." Two words came out from the thin red lips, she didn't even bother to look at Lan Xiang, and said: "You are so gauze, why do you do better than me on everything, why can you be appreciated by your boss? ?"
Although angry, but more like self-deprecating.
Perhaps she had never heard Hongmu talk to her in such a tone, Lan Xiang was a little startled, and after a few seconds, she cautiously said: "Redwood, you don't want to act anymore, I don't want you to blame..."
Mahogany frowned fiercely, raised her voice and interrupted Lan Xiang, saying, "Enough! Lan Xiang, why are you so stupid!"
Lan Xiang half-opened her mouth, looking at Mahogany's disgusted expression, not knowing what to say.
"The police even found the evidence. You actually thought I was shielding you. What an idiot." Mahogany made no secret of his contempt for Lan Xiang: "I wanted to kill Fancheng a long time ago. I wanted to kill Fancheng and set the blame on him. When it comes to you, I didn’t expect to miss the game and I still lost.”
Mahogany's performance was so real that Lan Xiang was at a loss for a while.
"To tell you the truth, even the red wine you drank at Fancheng's house was prepared by me personally, just to get you drunk." Hongmu sneered.
Indeed, Hongmu knows her best. Think of the bottle of red wine from Fancheng's house, which is her favorite brand to drink, and one of the wines that she easily gets drunk.
Turns out, this is not a coincidence...
Lan Xiang was stunned.
Seeing that Lan Xiang finally reacted, Mahogany couldn't help but laugh at her: "Why, finally reacted? You are so stupid to think of me as a good friend. You don't know how much I hate you."
Now that the matter has been exposed, Hongmu has no intention of concealing his actual feelings anymore, and unceremoniously "excited" to Lanxiang, and sprayed out the feelings that had been backlogged for several years.
"Obviously when you were in school, you were inferior to me in every way. I didn't expect to enter work, but you pressed me everywhere. I really had enough. Others always like to compare you with me. It seems that I am inferior to you everywhere. Are people blind? I am obviously more beautiful than you and smarter than you. Why do good opportunities always fall on you!"
Mahogany was not hysterical, but angrily stated her inner distress. The source of her pain over the years.
"I..." Lan Xiang opened his mouth, trying to say something, but after all, he said nothing.
It should be said that she had no idea what to say and guessed right, and her mind was in confusion at this time.
Finally, when the time came, when Xia Ruo handed over Lan Xiang, she was
They were still stunned, unable to react from the facts exposed in the conversation just now. Xia Ruo felt distressed for this girl.
Later, Lan Xiang was given a short holiday by the company's leaders to rest at home.
Lan Xiang said: "Okay, Officer Su, you can ask."
Su Luoheng took out a few photos from the document bag and gave them to Lan Xiang, saying, "We found these photos at Fancheng's house. See if you can think of anything."
Lan Xiang took the photos from Su Luoheng with some doubts, and wondered what clues she could provide from the photos she found from Fancheng's house. But the moment he saw the photo, Lan Xiang was stunned.
"This..." Lan Xiang flipped through the photo in her hand in surprise.
In the photo, there are two people entangled, one is Fancheng, and the other is Hongmu.
"Miss Lan, as far as we know, Hongmu was raped by Fancheng and took a photo, but Hongmu refused to disclose what happened."
"Fantasy..." Although he had torn his face with Hongmu, Lan Xiang was still angry for Hongmu after so many years of feelings. He didn't expect this Fancheng to be such a scumbag.
"What do you want to know?" Lan Xiang asked.
"These photos were taken probably more than a year ago. At that time, your relationship with Hongmu should be very good..." Su Luoheng paused. In fact, Hongmu had already started to hate Lanxiang at that time, just superficially. It seems that even individuals are very close. He went on to say: "More than a year ago, did you ever remember that Mahogany was in a bad state for a while? Or, did she do something different than usual that you can notice?"
Over a year ago...
Lan Xiang followed Su Luoheng's thoughts and recalled, and then said: "More than a year ago, there seemed to be a time when the state of Mahogany was different from normal. I was often distracted and in a very poor state."
"Did she mention anything to you during that time?"
"This..." Lan Xiang said apologetically: "It's been too long, I can't remember it anymore."
Then Lan Xiang asked again: "Do these have anything to do with this case?"
Su Luoheng said: "There are still some details of the case that I haven't figured out, so I want to know more about it."
"So, will these help Redwood's guilt of murder?" Afraid that Su Luoheng would be misunderstood, Lan Xiang later explained: "I mean-reduce her guilt."
Su Luoheng shook his head regretfully and said, "I am afraid it will be very difficult, because the fact that Hongmu killed people is already a foregone conclusion."
Lan Xiang was a little sad, and said in a low tone, "Okay."
Su Luoheng then asked, "Really, don't you remember anything?"
Lan Xiang nodded and said, "Yeah."
"That's all right." Su Luoheng couldn't help it.
Lan Xiang was thinking about returning the photo to Su Luoheng, but suddenly felt that the background in the photo was a bit familiar, and he took it back with a normal hand and looked around.
"What?" Su Luoheng asked.
"I think it's a bit familiar here..." Lan Xiang said.
The background is obviously a hotel. Putting together a few photos taken by Fancheng, you can roughly see the whole picture of the hotel rooms, and Lan Xiang feels a bit familiar.
"Have you seen here?" Su Luoheng felt that this was a breakthrough point.
"I've been here." Lan Xiang said, "I went here with Hongmu."
Su Luoheng tilted his body unconsciously a little bit before hearing Lan Xiang's words.
