Officer! You Can Get a First-class Merit Awards Just by Eating Melon Seeds?

Chapter 136 Pre-selection of the National Top EightRegarding this issue, the results of Xu Qingqing’s investigation showed that those shareholders had been in contact with Sun Aiguo in private.

And the person who stepped forward on behalf of Sun Aiguo was none other than Song Jia!

”Why would she go and help an outsider?” Liu Fengxia frowned slightly. She then continued reading.

The ultimate reason why Song Jia helped Sun Aiguo was actually because she did not receive the respect she deserved from Cui Shengli.

From Song Jia’s perspective, regardless of the reason she had an improper relationship with Cui Shengli, the moral pressure she had to bear afterwards was immense.

On one hand, it came from society, and on the other, from her own sister.

However, according to Xu Qingqing’s investigation, after every instance of their improper relationship, Cui Shengli never gave her the respect she deserved.

It could be understood as simply brushing her off with money!

”So, that means the money transferred to Song Jia wasn’t just because he was good to his wife’s family, but also a form of compensation?” Liu Fengxia’s tone was hesitant and surprised.

At the beginning of the investigation, they knew that Cui Shengli was very good to his wife, children, and even his mother-in-law’s family.

Therefore, combined with his status and position, although the amounts of money were quite large, no one thought much of it.

The case had been under investigation for three years, and the police had never suspected anything.

In short, Cui Shengli’s persona had completely collapsed in the minds of the investigators!

”You can know a person’s face, but not their heart.” Chen Mo said this sentence calmly.

There was almost no need to read any further.

It was easy to understand why Song Jia wanted to help Sun Aiguo.

She didn’t get the respect she deserved from Cui Shengli, and on top of that, she bore immense moral pressure, yet Cui Shengli didn’t care at all.

Instead, he just threw money at her to brush her off.

It was not hard to understand why she would develop hatred from this.

But... surely that doesn’t justify killing him, right?

So, does a relationship actually exist between her and Li Jiahao?

”This question is also the reason why I came to you to exchange information.”

She had only discovered many abnormal points about Song Jia, but she couldn’t judge the specific reasons before knowing about Li Jiahao.

”Sun Aiguo and Song Jia must both be aware of Li Jiahao’s murder.” Chen Mo looked thoughtful as he gave a definitive answer from within his heart.

”Why?”

”Although I haven’t been to the crime scene, I have looked at the photos of the scene many times.”

”According to your investigation, Li Jiahao has both the motive and the ability to commit the crime, and in Cui Shengli’s home, only his figure appeared.”

Xu Qingqing placed the file on the table and asked Chen Mo a question.

”There is a record of a conversation with Sun Aiguo’s assistant, Wang Li, in the documents.”

”This Wang Li is someone we came into contact with very early on when we came to Xinghan. He hired hitmen from abroad, but they never actually took action. I feel like someone is orchestrating this.”

Looking at it in isolation, what Wang Li said was correct; he did call in mercenaries, but they didn’t act.

His suspicion could be completely ruled out.

But that’s where the problem lies: the information about Wang Li was given to him by Song Jia.

For any other police officer, being able to investigate the fact that Wang Li had hired hitmen would already be very difficult.

Trying to push the case further would undoubtedly be even harder!

Therefore, he believed that Wang Li was a smoke screen thrown out by Song Jia!

”A smoke screen?”

The other three people present felt their heads spinning a bit.

Because Chen Mo’s words made them feel a bit confused.

It wasn’t easy to understand.

”I suspect that Sun Aiguo and Song Jia had planned this from the very beginning.”

”They had Wang Li hire hitmen from abroad, but secretly had Li Jiahao act beforehand.”

”Afterward, they immediately arranged for the hitmen to leave. On the surface, neither of them had any suspicion.”

”Even Wang Li himself thought that the hitmen had been dismissed, that the killer was someone else, and that it had nothing to do with his boss, Sun Aiguo.”

After he finished speaking, the three of them immediately understood what Chen Mo meant.

”If we follow your deduction, then Sun Aiguo and Song Jia are actually both accomplices.”

Xu Qingqing nodded, constantly replaying Chen Mo’s words in her mind.

Finally, she chose to agree with Chen Mo’s deduction.

Because as long as they didn’t investigate Li Jiahao, no matter how capable the police were, they would only be able to find out that Sun Aiguo had indeed sent hitmen, but those hitmen hadn’t committed the crime.

Naturally, they could deceive the police.

And Song Jia telling Chen Mo that Wang Li had once been a mercenary was likely also to reinforce her persona in the eyes of the police as someone avenging her sister.

As long as her relationship with her sister wasn’t exposed, the police would never suspect them.

However, this time she miscalculated.

The capability of the police who came this time was different from all the police she had ever seen before!

They could be described as the strongest group of the younger generation.

”Pleasure working with you!” Xu Qingqing reached out and shook hands with Chen Mo.

Both of them were now at the end of the case.

The next step was to arrest Song Jia and then interrogate her.

Of course, before that, they still had to wait for the specific results from the military side.

”Could there be any unforeseen circumstances?” Liu Fengxia looked worried, seeing that advancing to the top eight was within reach.

She was just afraid that something might go wrong on Li Jiahao’s end.

If he stubbornly refused to talk, kept shifting blame, and argued that it was a coincidence, it would be very troublesome.

”It’s normal for unforeseen circumstances to arise; after all, three years have passed since the case occurred.”

”But there’s no need to worry too much. There are always more solutions than problems.”

Chen Mo’s mindset was still very good.

He believed that even if Li Jiahao didn’t cooperate, he could still find a breakthrough from Song Jia and Sun Aiguo.

This was the self-confidence brought by his own ability.

It was also the underlying confidence from having won every battle!

”Hehe.” Liu Fengxia suddenly let out a low laugh.

Watching Chen Mo’s calm demeanor and comparing it to herself, although the saying wasn’t very pleasant, there was a feeling like ”the emperor is not anxious, but the eunuch is.”

Chen Mo wasn’t anxious, so why should she be?

If the sky fell, Chen Mo would be the one holding it up.

”Officer Chen really has a great mindset.” Xu Qingqing smiled faintly and said casually.

At such a critical moment, even she, who was always calm, couldn’t help but feel her heartbeat speed up a little.

This meant that the ticket to the top eight was in their hands.

The future prospects were limitless; once there was a job vacancy, they would be the first candidates to fill it.

The benefits were too great!

It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to call it a meteoric rise.

”I do indeed maintain a good mindset.” Chen Mo nodded, not denying it.

Among all the cases he had handled, his emotions basically never had any particularly large fluctuations.

The more critical the moment, the more one should remain calm.

This was a required course for studying criminal investigation.

But apart from himself, very few people could suppress human nature.

”Are we just going to sit here?” Xu Qingqing scanned the surroundings and asked Chen Mo.

”Has anyone been sent to watch Song Jia and Sun Aiguo?”
