Chapter 50: No Solution
Tang Shuzhi also seemed to realize that the police would not joke with human lives, and when he heard Ning Shuyi's words, he subconsciously immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Then he realized that his reaction was obviously inappropriate.
"I don't mean anything else, I regret Hong Xinli's death, and I feel relieved, just because my original most troublesome trouble no longer exists." He quickly explained, "I had a morning meeting that morning, there were more than a dozen people in the meeting, and the meeting lasted until noon, and then everyone had a working meal together.
Before three o'clock in the afternoon, I had people around me all the time, and after three o'clock there was no one to prove it for me.
I can provide you with the list if you need it."
"Don't you want to ask Hong Xinli what happened?" Ning Shuyi asked.
"I don't want to." Tang Shuzhi shook his head without hesitation, "Things that have nothing to do with me are not a good thing, I don't want to know too much, it won't do me any good."
I just need to know what is relevant to me, and I don't ask about anything else.
However, Hong Xinli is gone, but what about the video? She said the video was still on her computer!
If her family finds out when they are sorting out the relics, makes a fuss again, and then publicizes it, won't my reputation still be ruined?
Do you have to help me with this?"
"I'm sorry, as the female party in the video, Hong Xinli secretly filmed the video, as long as it is not disseminated, it is not used to blackmail you, it is just a personal secret, this is only a moral issue, and it does not constitute a crime."
Ning Shuyi shook her head at Tang Shuzhi, looking helpless: "But if you say so, we will also pay attention to the subsequent developments for you, if her family uses the video to blackmail you, you can contact us at any time."
If someone discovers and disseminates that video, we will definitely hold them accountable in accordance with the law."
"What?! Aren't you putting the risk of my reputation in the hands of others?! How can I be comfortable teaching and academic?!" Tang Shuzhi's eyes widened, and he looked much more shocked than when he first heard the news of Hong Xinli's death.
"I'm sorry." Ning Shuyi shook her head helplessly, "According to the law, as long as Hong Xinli does not disseminate the video footage, then as the subject of the video, this is part of her personal privacy.
Now, if she is still alive, we can also process your report, hold her criminally accountable for extortion, and ensure that the video used for extortion is properly destroyed.
But now that she is dead, that video is equivalent to a part of her personal belongings, and we have no right or position to dispose of it."
"What are these words?! But I'm not here to report the crime!" Tang Shuzhi was furious, "I reported the case, you dare to ignore it?!"
"You reported the case one step too late, if you choose to report the case immediately when you are threatened, it is estimated that the process will be completed at this time." Ning Shuyi was still very patient, "But now the suspect you want to report to the crime has been killed first, and has become the victim in the case we are investigating.
It is impossible for us to investigate a deceased, and the laws of any country can only be used to bind the living, and I have never heard of a law that can regulate the dead, don't you say?"
"Then what am I going to do with this problem?! Do you just put my fate in the hands of others, so that there is always a time bomb buried in my life?!" Tang Shuzhi asked eagerly, "Is there any other way?"
"You can also consider talking to Hong Xinli's family, and if the family agrees to delete the video file or hand it over to you, then the problem will be solved." Ning Shuyi smiled and answered seriously.
"How could I possibly say this!" Tang Shuzhi's reaction was quite fast, blurted out, and after speaking, he felt that his answer was too weak, so he swallowed the rest of the words back, and asked, "Isn't there any other way?"
"I'm afraid not." Ning Shuyi
Shaking his head, "After all, there is no time machine invented yet, and there is no way to go back in time and avoid the original 'mistake', don't you say?"
Tang Shuzhi's expression was a little embarrassed, and he couldn't say anything at this juncture, so he could only get up and rush out of the conference room with a snort.
Ning Shuyi also restrained her polite smile behind him, she was very disgusted with this sanctimonious Tang Shuzhi in her heart, it was just a work need, and she had to get rid of her personal emotions.
Huo Yan didn't have any expression just now, but there was a smile on his face at this moment.
"What are you laughing at?" Ning Shuyi found out and was a little puzzled.
"Knowing that people like him are worried about having trouble sleeping and eating, I feel good." Huo Yan would not hide his thoughts in front of Ning Shuyi, and said truthfully, "I thought that Hong Xinli was dead, and Tang Shuzhi had no worries.
It's good now, the law can't control things on the moral level, but the heavens forgive anyone!"
"yes, it's a little late, but it's good to be able to take a lesson." Ning Shuyi nodded in agreement.
"Let's go, have dinner." Huo Yan looked at the time, and after entangling with Tang Shuzhi, at this time, the two of them could completely combine lunch and dinner, "Do we need to go to Hong Xinli's house after eating?"
"What are you going to do?"
"Look for that video." Huo Yan didn't expect Ning Shuyi to ask himself, and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, "You just asked Tang Shuzhi whose video was in his hands, didn't you just want to see his reaction?"
If we find that the video has been deleted after confirmation, then Tang Shuzhi may be the kind of thief who shouted to catch the thief as Luo Wei said.
If it is confirmed that the video exists in the common residence of Hong Xinli and Zhai Yujiang, then there is no way to completely rule out Tang Shuzhi's suspicion.
Although he presented evidence of his alibi, anything was possible until it was confirmed.
After all, for a meeting of more than a dozen people, if he is not an important participant, it is possible to leave quietly in the middle of the meeting.
I've confirmed that it's not that far from his current workplace to the scene of the crime."
"Well, I just asked that, it's true that you said this kind of consideration, but don't rush this moment, just go tomorrow." Ning Shuyi shook his head, "If it's at the scene of the crime, if someone destroys the evidence, it's too late to go now."
If the evidence hadn't been destroyed, no one would have been able to enter there except us now, let alone rush for the night.
As for Hong Xinli and Zhai Yujiang's common residence...... Now that we have passed this time, Zhai Yujiang will definitely be at home.
At this time, the case at hand has not yet been investigated, and if the video is discovered by Zhai Yujiang, I am afraid it will not be good for anyone."
