A hidden drug dealer who is worried all day long, afraid of being exposed, suddenly the phone call from the street police station is frightened, and it is a matter of course.

But it is precisely because of the fear of legal sanctions, so Zhang Longchu knows much more about the federal judicial system than his peers, after the initial fear, he suddenly thought that the trafficking of 'weeds' should be a crime investigated by the 'drug and stimulant control' police, and it has nothing to do with the serious crime team, so he immediately calmed down and asked: "I'm Zhang Longchu, may I ask what's the matter, Mr. Officer?" ”

"Mr. Zhang Longchu, did you take the A071 ring bus on September 7 and suffered a car accident?" The voice on the phone asked.

"Yes, what's the problem?" Zhang Longchu asked rhetorically.

"The police are investigating the crash, and I would like you to answer a few questions, where are you now?" The voice on the phone said.

As the only survivor of a serious car accident with more than 20 fatalities, it seems normal to make a record for the police, but the problem is that now that three full days have passed since the crash, it is a little delicate for the police to come and ask for questions.

Therefore, Zhang Longchu hesitated for a moment and asked: "Mr. Policeman, didn't it be reported in the news that the car accident was an accident, why is there still ..."

"Mr. Zhang Longchu, judging whether the car accident was an accident or not should be carried out by the police, not reporters.

And now it's us going to talk to you, not I'm going to answer your questions," the male voice on the phone interrupted him inadvertently, and said in a deep voice, "Where are you now?" ”

Shocked by the strength of the other party, Zhang Longchu replied with a bumpy heart: "I'm at school, um, settled in middle school, just finished lunch, and was planning to go to class." ”

"Alright, we'll look for you now, please wait on the side of the road." The male voice on the phone demanded in a tone that could not be refused.

"Mr. Policeman, but I'm about to go to class... Hey, hey... What the hell..."Zhang Longchu wanted to refuse, but there was already a blind tone on the phone.

Seeing that his face became very unkind, Howard and Obano beside him asked in unison, "What's wrong buddy, did something bad happen?" ”

Never wanting his friends to get involved in his chores, Zhang Longsheng couldn't help but feel uneasy, shrugged his shoulders and said, "It's nothing, it's just that the police want to ask me something, you guys go to class first." ”

Friends know very well about the 'small business' run by Zhang Longchu, so after listening to his words, their faces couldn't help but change color at the same time, and they opened their mouths to say something but couldn't speak.

After all, they are only middle school students, and they are not capable of helping when it comes to the federal authorities.

Seeing the ugly faces of Oubano and Howard, Zhang Longchu reluctantly smiled and said, "Okay, it's all right, the police just want me to answer a few questions, you guys go quickly, class is going to be going to be in place soon." ”

"Okay, let's go to class first.

If you really have any problems, please let us know. Howard sighed and pushed Obano, who seemed to want to ask something, towards the school building.

Looking at their backs blending into the group of students and gradually disappearing, Zhang Longchu frowned and walked under the big tree on the side of the street, pondered and waited for a while, and finally saw a gray Ford sedan with a police light on one side coming from the street and stopping beside him.

The car stopped, and two tall middle-aged men who were also wearing black suits, cyan ties, and hooked noses, but one with thick short brown hair and a slightly bald head opened the doors on the left and right sides of the front row, and walked out at the same time, and the bald man among them glanced at Zhang Longchu and said, "Young man, you are Zhang Longchu, right?" ”

"Yes, sir." Zhang Longchu had already prepared a question and an answer, never talking much, so as not to cause trouble, nodded and replied concisely.

"I'm William, Senior Detective of the Crime Unit of the Los Angeles West District Office. Z. Mountbatten, who is my partner Senior Agent Thomas Wick," said the bald man, stylizing his badge and ID, "We would like to ask you a few questions about the A071 Ring Bus crash on September 7. ”

"You've already told me about it on the phone, sir." Zhang Longchu said.

"Making a request to you in person is necessary before making a record of the question, because you have the right not to answer my questions." William said expressionlessly: "And since you are over 14 years old and under 16 years old, according to the relevant laws of California, you can also require that you must be questioned by the police in the presence of a guardian." ”

"I have nothing to hide from you, sir, and there is no need to alarm my guardian about this kind of thing," Zhang Longchu said without hesitation: "Well, do I need to go to the police station with you?" ”

Hearing him ask, William didn't make a sound, and the policeman named Tom on the side said kindly: "No, just take the interrogation transcript directly in the car, young man, we don't mean to embarrass you." "Obviously, one of the two partners is used to singing 'white face' and the other is used to singing 'red face'.

Although Zhang Longchu had never had contact with the police before, he had already learned about the interrogation techniques used by the two policemen from the police film, and on the surface he quietly got into the back seat of the police car according to Toms's instructions, but he was a little more vigilant in his heart.

Ten seconds later, the questioning began, and William asked the first question, "Mr. Zhang Longchu, did you board the A071 Circle Bus at the 'Cornegia Museum of the 20th Century' stop on September 7?" ”

It's a surprising question, but it's also very simple, just answer yes and no.

But after buying a strange object at the flea market opposite the 'Conex Museum' three days ago, Zhang Longchu fell into a coma, and he didn't know how he got on the city bus, so he didn't know how to answer.

If so, then if the police show the surveillance footage of the city's main thoroughfare, proving that he was not on the bus at the museum stop, then he will not be able to explain why he lied;

If the answer is no, then Zhang Longchu can't answer which bus stop to catch the A071 bus, thinking about it, afraid of self-defeating, he can only helplessly say: "I'm sorry Mr. Officer, I really can't remember where I got on the bus." ”

Hearing this answer, William's face changed, and he asked in a cold voice, "Is this what you call nothing to hide from us, young man?" ”

"I really don't remember, sir, the car accident has caused problems with my memory," Zhang Longchu said with a wry smile: "Otherwise, such an inconsequential issue, do you think I need to hide it?" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Thomas said with a look of concern, "This is not an inconsequential matter, young man.

According to the autopsy review report submitted by the forensic doctor at noon today, the driver of the A071 ring bus that killed 23 people three days ago lost control of his car, not because of sudden death, but because he was hit in the brain by some mysterious means, resulting in death, that is, the A071 car accident was not an accident, but a serious criminal offense.

And the murderer is likely to be the passenger in the car..."

Even if Zhang Long is mature at the beginning, he is still just a teenager in essence, and the suspicion of a felony of murdering 23 people is a burden that he must not bear psychologically.

Therefore, without waiting for the police to finish speaking, Zhang Longchu's eyes widened and he stammered in defense: "You, you can't think that I am the murderer who killed 23 people, Officer Thoms!"

Please, after the car accident, I'm still trying to save people, and besides, I'm still a student, how can I use any mysterious means to hit people's brains! ”

"I didn't say you were a suspect, young man, but you, as the only survivor of bus A071, are likely to be an important witness in the case, which is why we came to you to supplement your statement." Thomas said with a smile.

"yes, um, but I don't remember anything, and I'm afraid it's hard to be an important witness, sorry, officer." Hearing this, Zhang Longchu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"If that's the case, then we'll skip the Q&A step in the general interrogation transcript, and please tell me everything you remember from the beginning to the end." Tom thought for a moment and said very reasonably.

"Okay officer, well, that's right, on September 7th, that is, last Saturday, in order to see the tour exhibition of cultural relics in the Forbidden City, I took a bus to the 'Cornegie Museum' early in the morning..."

After listening to his narration, Thomas really didn't mean to embarrass Zhang Longchu at all, and after asking him to sign his confession, he directly released Zhang Longchu out of the police car.

But when William, whose eyes were like a falcon discovering its prey, looked at Zhang Longchu, who was gradually walking away, through the carriage, and asked softly, "What do you think, man?" Toms's answer was diametrically opposed to his trusting attitude towards Zhang Longchu, "Very suspicious, William, that kid must be hiding something."

He must have exhausted his brain and made up a lie after receiving our call, but the first question you ask is beyond his preparation, so he suddenly becomes ignorant. ”

"Do you think he'll be a murderer?" William asked again.

"The guy who can murder 23 people in the metropolis with such an ingenious plan is not so 'tender'," Toms said with an inexplicable sigh, "but who knows, today's children are so precocious and difficult to understand, who knows what they will do." ”

William nodded in agreement, "My opinion is similar to yours, so let's list him as a suspect target and investigate." "Start the car and disappear into the torrent of steel.
