"Where were you after six o'clock last night?" The man in front of her had a stern face.
Gu Sisi was still completely bewildered from the moment she arrived until she saw Officer Gao. She originally thought something had happened, but never expected that the trouble was about her. Now she was being interrogated in the interrogation room.
What was going on?
Seeing Gu Sisi silent, Officer Gao frowned slightly and softly added, "It's better to explain clearly."
"Um... at home," Gu Sisi simply replied.
"Until now?" There was a shrewd look in Officer Gao's eyes.
"Yes."
Gu Sisi opened her innocent eyes wide and continued.
Officer Gao made a few marks in his notebook and casually glanced to his side. Officer Liang, who had been at the bar just now, had also come.
"What do you think about this situation where the suspect refuses to admit guilt?" Officer Gao murmured quietly, with the smile on his face hardly fading.
Gu Sisi couldn't hear what they were saying at all.
"Do you need to ask me?" Officer Liang retorted.
Feeling rebuffed, Officer Gao turned back and suddenly raised his voice, "Then how do you explain the fact that your fingerprints were found on the glass cup discovered at the Yingguang Bar last night?"
"Ah?"
Although Gu Sisi didn't know what was going on, she now knew the reason why she had been brought to the police station.
Officer Gao took out the physical evidence in a transparent sealed bag, showed it to Gu Sisi, and said, "Isn't this cup familiar to you?"
Gu Sisi honestly shook her head.
"Where exactly were you last night?" Officer Gao continued to shout loudly.
Gu Sisi had no choice but to cooperate and raised her voice, "At home."
"Do you have any on - site evidence? Who were you with at that time?"
"Yes," Gu Sisi said firmly.
Sister Hu was extremely confused when she was brought here. Originally, seeing the young mistress being taken away, she had tried to find help and could only think of Assistant Chen Fang. After making a call, both of them had come.
"You accompanied Gu Sisi last night?"
"Yes."
"No."
Officer Gao looked up, "Lying under oath is a crime punishable by imprisonment. I'll ask again. During the period from six to half - past seven last night, were you with Gu Sisi the whole time?"
"Yes," Sister Hu's eyes showed determination as she stuck to her answer.
"Do you have any physical evidence to prove that she didn't go out last night?"
Sister Hu suddenly fell silent and then counter - questioned, "Excuse me, if there are other people who can prove that Miss Sisi didn't go out, would that be okay?"
"Sorry, we need absolute evidence."
"Then I have it," Chen Fang, who had been silent beside them, spoke up.
The two nearby were both surprised.
Ignoring their surprise, Chen Fang said to himself, "There are all - around surveillance cameras near the Huo Mansion. I think that should be able to prove it!"
That meant there would be records from the time Gu Sisi got home until she was brought here by the police.
Officer Gao stopped writing and said, "Okay."
Then he continued writing and made a few more marks.
Then he stood up from his chair and softly said, "Wait here for a while."
Then he left without looking back.
The whole police station was bustling. Everything they had said was verified. Officer Gao folded his arms and looked at the evidence on the screen, shaking his head with a smile. "It seems we've encountered a supernatural event. A person who didn't go out actually left their fingerprints dozens of miles away. Officer Liang, it seems this case can only be explained by the art of cloning."
Officer Liang was standing beside him, his hands clenched tightly. The unexpected situation had not been in his prediction. Originally, he had planned to let things take their natural course, thinking there wouldn't be any major problems as long as the goal was achieved.
Who would have thought that there would be an alibi so soon.
"This footage could be fake, couldn't it? Since someone can commit a crime, it's not difficult to create an alibi, right?" Officer Liang continued to insist and then turned around and left.
"It's possible, but..." Officer Gao added behind him and then suddenly stopped.
Clenching his palm, a sneering smile appeared on his lips.
On the spot, he invited experts to identify the authenticity, and even invited the most authoritative physical evidence identification expert from above.
Not long after, he knew the identification result and picked up the final report to find Officer Liang.
"What is it?" There was a hint of impatience in Officer Liang's eyes and eyebrows.
"I've encountered some difficulties at work and came to ask for your help," Officer Gao seemed not to notice his unwelcoming attitude. He walked over and sat down opposite Officer Liang, then put the materials in his hand in front of him.
He raised his eyebrows and signaled, "Take a look."
A feeling of impatience welled up from the bottom of his heart. If he went crazy today, it would definitely be because of the person in front of him.
"It's better to wait for the chief to come back before making a conclusion," Officer Liang only glanced at it for a few seconds.
The chief had gone to a national - level meeting and hadn't come back yet. These two had always been at odds. Since Officer Liang had been transferred here, they were like two tigers in one mountain.
So for any decision Officer Gao wanted to make, Officer Liang would try his best to delay it. Moreover, in this case, he had to delay time to solve some problems.
Officer Gao was never surprised by his answer.
"Enough!" Officer Gao suddenly shouted angrily. He stood up from his chair and stared at him firmly. "Now we have both human and physical evidence. What excuse do you have not to release the suspect? And will you be responsible for delaying the entire investigation process? Are you brave enough to guarantee this supernatural event?"
Being grabbed by the collar and almost suffocated, Officer Liang finally managed to break free from his grasp. While gasping for breath, he said, "This case is of great importance. The department will have no objection if we are more cautious.
Even if this woman didn't do it, she must be related to it. If you rashly downplay this matter, then you will be responsible for the crisis that follows."
Officer Gao spread his hands. Suddenly, a very familiar voice came from outside the door.
"I heard you were looking for me."
Officer Gao gave a soft laugh. He saw Officer Liang's stunned expression clearly. He turned his head and just saw the chief walking in from outside.
"Yes, Chief. There's a new case."
Officer Gao reported everything and even put forward his own speculation.
"I think there must be a huge conspiracy behind this case."
Officer Liang beside him kept a straight face and said nothing.
"Tell me more," the chief said.
"The glass cup was specially made by the bar. As far as we know, the suspect has never been to this bar, but she somehow came into contact with that cup. There are only a few possibilities.
One, the cup grew legs and went to her on its own.
Two, all the statements we just took were false, and the suspect had been to the scene.
Three, someone framed her."
After the last sentence was spoken, there was a moment of silence.
The chief didn't show much reaction. He just softly said, "Release the suspect first."
