Chapter 22: Arrest

However, Yang Wenbin could never have imagined that the disaster brought to him by the clown was far from over.

When Yang Wenbin woke up the next day, he received a text message from Yan Junli, who did not explain the reason, only told him to hurry up to the police station. Yang Wenbin put down his phone, walked out of the bedroom, and just saw the poppy coming out of the kitchen, as if nothing had happened, putting a bowl of noodles in Yang Wenbin's hand.

"You have too few materials at home, so that's all you can do. It's certainly not very tasty, but given that you didn't eat anything last night, it's best to grab a bite to eat before you go. ”

"You...... Did you sleep in the living room last night? Yang Wenbin rubbed his sore temples and tried hard to recall.

"yes, I'll send you back to your bedroom and sleep alone on this couch with no quilt, no heating, and a wide open window." Poppy looked at Yang Wenbin and felt a little funny, "Of course I didn't sleep in the living room, unless I wanted to freeze to death." I slept in the hotel and came back early in the morning to see how you were doing. ”

"Wait...... So how did you get in? Yang Wenbin felt that his head hurt even more.

Poppy shook the key in his hand, "It's not hard to find your key and get another one." ”

If it were usual, Yang Wenbin would definitely say, "You are illegally trespassing on a private house", but after such a night, all Yang Wenbin could say was a weak "thank you", and then obediently sat down to eat this bowl of noodles that was not very delicious.

"It's not his fault that Yan Junli didn't go to you yesterday, he has a job."

"I know. Today he called me to the police station, I think there is something to investigate the results of. Yang Wenbin put down the chopsticks and bowls, and said sincerely, "Thank you for your face, now I have to go and see what is going on with him." ”

"You ......," Poppy said again.

"I'm fine, don't worry." Yang Wenbin showed a faint smile, stood up, kissed poppy lightly on the forehead, and then walked to the hanger to pick up the coat and put it on.

"If anything comes to me, I'm always there." Poppy whispered.

"I've kept your number." Yang Wenbin turned his head and gave Poppy a smile.

Yang Wenbin took a taxi and rushed to the police station as quickly as he could. He could imagine how worried Yan Junli was about him, and how anxious Li Hong would be to ask him questions, he had to tell them that he was fine, and then try to get into the state of investigation as quickly as possible.

Yang Wenbin walked into the office of the Criminal Investigation Bureau with familiarity, but the state in the office today seemed to be a little different from what he imagined.

Yan Junli and Li Hong stood closest to him, and most of the other policemen were also standing, their eyes revealing gloom. And what is surprising is that the police chief Li Wenyao is also in the office, looking directly at Yang Wenbin.

Yang Wenbin was a little confused, he turned his head to look at Yan Junli, "Uh...... What's going on? You texted me to come over and I rushed over as soon as I could, but you didn't say why......"

Yan Junli's eyes were also very wrong, and he avoided Yang Wenbin's gaze at him, "Wenbin, I'm sorry. ”

Yang Wenbin was even more confused, "What? Oh, if you're talking about yesterday, it's okay, I know you have to put your business first......"

"No, that's what I'm talking about." Yan Junli took a deep breath and seemed to have made up his mind to approach Yang Wenbin, and then suddenly took out a pair of handcuffs from behind him, and undoubtedly restrained Yang Wenbin, "Yang Wenbin, you have been arrested." ”

This time, Yang Wenbin's head "buzzed", and his scalp exploded, "What? ”

"We have enough evidence to show that you are suspected of murdering Tao Mingliang and Zhu Tianyou, so we will detain you for interrogation." When Yan Junli said these words, he didn't even frown.

"What?" Yang Wenbin felt that this was simply the funniest joke he had ever heard in his life, and he looked around with an incredulous expression, "No, Yan Junli, you didn't even call me last night, and you greeted me with such a lame joke today?!" ”

"It's not a joke, I'm talking to you as a detective!"

"That's your brain being gnawed by a dog! You say I kill someone? Yang Wenbin roared angrily, "What evidence do you have!" ”

"Tao Mingliang and Zhu Tianyou were murdered by cutting their throats with a scalpel, and their clothes left your fingerprints." Yan Junli took a deep breath and said calmly, "And we finally found this bloody murder weapon from your office. ”

As he spoke, Yan Junli picked up an evidence bag from the table, and inside was a bloody scalpel, which reflected the light brightly under the fluorescent lamp.

"This scalpel also has your fingerprints on it."

“…… What the? Yang Wenbin couldn't believe that Yan Junli would say such a thing, he laughed dryly, "No, just this?" That's what makes you think I'm a murderer! Even so, when have I ever left your side in the past two days! How can I have time to commit murder? ”

Unfortunately, the time of death of Tao Mingliang and Zhu Tianyou was in the early morning of the 8th. That is, the night before the big day, the only night you went back to your own house. I'm not with you, and you don't have any witnesses to prove where you're going. ”

Yang Wenbin was stunned for a long time before he shouted angrily, "So you think I'm a murderer?!" Is your brain an ornament? This is clearly a frame-up! ”

"Then you'll have to stay in the bureau until we find the framer." Yan Junli was merciless,

"Yan Junli! Are you crazy! Yang Wenbin shouted.

"Take him down." But Yan Junli just waved his hand mercilessly, and two policemen stepped forward and twisted Yang Wenbin's arm and forcibly held him down.

"Yan Junli, your head is in water! How can you do that! Yang Wenbin shouted while struggling, "Can't you see that this is a clown's conspiracy!" ”

"Wait." Yan Junli stopped the two policemen, and just when Yang Wenbin had another glimmer of hope, Yan Junli just said with a complicated look, "...... Be gentle with him. ”

Yang Wenbin waited for an unknown amount of time in this cramped interrogation room, the handcuffs restricting his freedom of movement, and the only thing he could do while waiting was to stare at the ceiling and count the cobwebs on it, and only then could he barely distract himself from thinking about the betrayal of his closest friend.

But in the end, the sound of Yan Junli pushing the door in still disrupted all the efforts Yang Wenbin had made before.

Yan Junli took a cup of hot coffee and put it in front of Yang Wenbin. Then he also pulled out a chair and sat directly opposite Yang Wenbin.

This scene is familiar, they used to sit opposite each other in the interrogation room a long time ago. The difference is that for the first time they worked together to solve a crime, and now they face the biggest crisis of trust between the two.

Yan Junli first coughed dryly, and then said, "Have you had breakfast?" If it's not good to drink coffee without breakfast, why don't I go out and buy some for you—"

Before Yan Junli's words were finished, the cup of coffee was unceremoniously spilled, the brown liquid flowed all over the table, and Yang Wenbin's face was like frost.

"Do you think I'll accept your handouts after you've done something like this?" Yang Wenbin's eyes when he looked at Yan Junli could be called despair, "I'll only give you one chance to explain to me what's going on, say." ”

Yan Junli looked at his partner fixedly, and for a moment Yang Wenbin felt that he saw Yan Junli's movedness, but it was fleeting.

"There's nothing to say, the crime scene has your fingerprints, and the murder weapon was also found in your office."

"So what?" Yang Wenbin said angrily, "So you think I'm a murderer?!" Do you think I killed my own only family member! ”

"I didn't say that." Yan Junli said bluntly, "But there are indeed your fingerprints at the scene, and you don't have an alibi." And all the previous cases were like this, the last victim's crime scene would leave the murderer's fingerprints-"

"Is that your answer?" Yang Wenbin lowered his head and laughed, then suddenly stood up suddenly, grabbed Yan Junli's collar, and the chains on the handcuffs made a rattling sound, "Yan Junli, you bastard!" ”

"Then what else do you want me to do!" Yan Junli also shouted loudly, "The whole city has become a mess!" Rumors outside are flying everywhere, and people are no longer afraid to go out, for fear that the next person to die will be themselves! I can't let go of any suspects at this time! ”

"So I'm bullshit to you? Suspect? I misread you! You're a brainless bastard! Yang Wenbin grabbed Yan Junli's collar and punched him, this time the force almost used his life's strength, and Yan Junli's nosebleed came down on the spot.

"What's going on!"

"Team Yan, what's wrong!"

Soon a few policemen rushed over when they heard the noise, but Yan Junli stopped them and whispered "It's okay".

"Get the hell out of here." Yang Wenbin's eyes were full of despair, "I don't know you." I have nothing left, and it doesn't matter if I go to jail or die. But I don't want to see you anymore, you get out of here. ”

Yan Junli just stood up silently, wiped his nose with his sleeve in silence, and then walked out of the interrogation room in silence.

Two policemen walked in, violently propped Yang Wenbin up, pushed and escorted him out of the interrogation room, and sent him to a darker place, the detention room.

Yang Wenbin indifferently watched the heavy iron bars close in front of him, and he sat on the cold ground and hugged his knees.
