Chapter 431: Boss Zhan has solved the case.
Zhan Yanxun's words shocked everyone, especially since the woman in front of them, holding a portrait of her deceased husband, was heartbroken and crying uncontrollably because of his death.
She knelt everywhere, holding her husband's portrait, begging for justice. Her grief at losing her husband was so intense that one felt her husband in heaven would weep uncontrollably if he saw her.
A woman like that is the murderer of her husband? How could that be?
Jiang Qianhui looked at Zhan Yanxun, who had previously thought that Poisonous Snake had double-crossed Wang Jun, killed him, and burned down the house.
However, the venomous snake did not see Wang Jun.
She suspected Liao Mei, but she had no evidence.
What makes Zhan Yanxun so certain that Liao Mei is the murderer?
How did he know?
Liao Mei clutched the portrait tightly and said to Zhan Yanxun, "You're talking nonsense! You're all in cahoots! You killed my husband and now you're slandering me! Is there no law left?"
Jiang Qianhui said coldly, "Whether it's slander or not, the police will find out after they investigate."
"I'm really sorry, the police have already investigated, and I have an alibi."
After Liao Mei finished speaking triumphantly, she suddenly pointed at Jiang Qianhui and said, "It was you and Gu Xunjing who had someone take me to the hospital. You can also be considered my alibi."
That day, Jiang Qianhui and Gu Xunjing went to Wang Jun's house to look for Xiao Jiangbao, but instead of finding Wang Jun, they discovered Liao Mei, who had been beaten unconscious by Wang Jun.
At the time, Liao Mei's plight and her stubborn insistence on protecting her husband made Jiang Qianhui feel both pity for her misfortune and anger at her lack of self-respect.
They were in a hurry to find Xiao Jiangbao and didn't have time to pay attention to her, but they arranged for a driver to take Liao Mei to the hospital.
Liao Mei looked at Zhan Yanxun and said firmly, "My husband was murdered, and the police have already ruled out my involvement. You can't just accuse me with empty words."
"You said you weren't there because you were at the hospital?"
"Yes."
“You were indeed in the hospital on the day of the incident, but you left at one point.”
Zhan Yanxun's words caused Liao Mei's expression to change slightly.
"You're talking nonsense. I never left. Otherwise, you can check the hospital's surveillance footage."
“According to the hospital’s surveillance footage, you did not leave, because you avoided the cameras. The only time you were seen leaving the hospital was when you were discharged.”
"You're talking nonsense. I'm just an ordinary person. How would I know where there are surveillance cameras?"
“You go to that hospital often. Because you are frequently beaten by Wang Jun and sent to the hospital. The worst time, you had more than twenty stitches in your head. Going to the hospital is a regular occurrence for you.”
Zhan Yanxun's words shocked everyone. This woman was frequently abused by her husband, so why was he seeking justice for him after his death?
“The time I got injured on the head was an accident. I had an argument with my husband, and he threw a bowl in anger. But I didn’t expect that I would suddenly move, and the bowl hit my head, causing me to bleed. But he took me to the hospital immediately and kept apologizing to me. He knelt down for a whole day and night because of this. He really didn’t do it on purpose.”
Liao Mei's words failed to elicit even the slightest sympathy from others.
This woman was beaten so badly by her husband that she was hospitalized, yet she was still defending him. She even thought it was incredibly commendable that her husband knelt down and apologized.
Are some people just masochistic? They need to be beaten and then begged for forgiveness to prove that their husbands love them.
Jiang Qianhui said with a cold look in her eyes, "You think it wasn't intentional once, and it wasn't intentional every time? If Gu Xunjing and I hadn't arrived that day, you would have died in your own home with him. Even now, you still think your husband didn't do it on purpose, and that it wasn't his fault?"
“It wasn’t my husband’s fault. It was because I couldn’t give him a child that I embarrassed him. It was because I caused him to be questioned and ridiculed by others back in his hometown, which made him feel bad. But I know he loves me. As long as I can have a child, he will treat me well, he will stop hitting me, and our life will get better and better. But you ruined all of this. Why did you kill him?”
Liao Mei looked foolish and infatuated, as if she were deeply poisoned, rather than like someone who would kill.
"Alright, now that we've come this far, let's stop acting. On the day of the incident, you were receiving an IV drip at the hospital. Under normal circumstances, the drip would be finished in two hours."
But according to the nurse, she found you receiving an IV drip around 4 PM. More than four hours had passed since you started the drip. And that hospital is only a 20-minute drive from the crime scene. You went back to kill your husband and then came back for another IV drip.
Jiang Qianhui looked at Zhan Yanxun, whose eyes were firm, as if he had great confidence in what he said.
Liao Mei panicked instantly. She shouted anxiously, "You're talking nonsense! I was just a little late with my IV drip. How can you say I killed my husband?"
"Then how do you explain that the IV drip should have only taken two hours, but you ended up in the ward for four hours before it was finished?"
"When I was halfway through the IV drip, my blood started flowing back up and I wanted to eat, so I pulled it out myself, went out to eat something, and then came back."
“You said you went out to eat, but you just said you didn’t go out and have been in the hospital the whole time.”
Liao Mei's pupils dilated in shock; one lie leads to more lies to cover it up.
"That's because...because..."
Liao Mei panicked and tried to explain, but Zhan Yanxun calmly said, "Since you went out to eat, why is there no trace of you in the surveillance footage? This is too much of a coincidence."
“There are many coincidences in this world. Why do you say that I beat my husband to death? It was Gu Xunjing who beat my husband to death.”
Just then, Zhan Yanxun's special assistant, Wu Ye, arrived.
Wearing gloves and carrying a bag, he said to Zhan Yanxun, "President Zhan, the item has been found."
Liao Mei looked at the bag and felt a little flustered.
Zhan Yanxun gestured for Wu Ye to hand the bag over to the police. Wu Ye said, "This is crucial evidence."
The policeman was stunned. He quickly put on gloves, opened the bag, and found a 50-centimeter-long iron rod inside.
When Liao Mei saw the iron rod, she suddenly became hysterical.
"This thing is neither the murder weapon that killed Wang Jun nor mine."
Zhan Yanxun turned to look at Liao Mei and said, "We only said that this thing is crucial evidence, but we didn't say that it was the murder weapon that killed Wang Jun."
Liao Mei was stunned for a moment. She knew that she had been set up by Zhan Yanxun.
“You’ve been saying that I killed my husband, so of course I thought you were trying to frame me with that murder weapon.”
