The Forensic Doctor Better Than a Detective-Chapter 640 - 354: Textbook Reasoning

Inside the interrogation room, Jiang An laid out all his reasoning.

It can be said that the entire explanation perfectly matched the crime process.

But Li Chuang, sitting across from him, showed no interest at all.

He slightly raised his head: "Officer, your story is good and reasonable, but it has nothing to do with me."

"He was my best friend, how could I choose to kill him?"

"Moreover, ever since this case happened, I’ve repeatedly pleaded with you to bring the murderer to justice!

"If I were the murderer, would I hope to get caught myself?"

"Isn’t this clearly digging my own grave?"

"Am I that foolish?"

Upon hearing these words, Li Jian, sitting opposite, couldn’t keep his composure.

He suddenly raised his hand and slapped the table with a "bang."

"I’ve seen too many tricks like this where the thief shouts to catch the thief!"

"Do you think if you say nothing, there’s nothing we can do with you?"

"We found a watch at the crime scene."

"After forensic testing, we can determine whether this watch is yours!"

"So I advise you to be honest; stop making pointless struggles."

Hearing this, the man’s pupils slightly contracted across him.

After a moment of silence, Li Chuang continued, "A watch? What watch?"

"I don’t know what you’re talking about."

"You don’t know what I’m talking about?"

Li Jian sneered, "Wait until the test results are out, then you’ll know what you’re talking about."

"Maybe you can say nothing, but the judge might not listen to you."

"In the face of ironclad evidence and facts, I believe the judge will definitely send you to prison."

"Hahaha, send me to prison?"

"Do you have evidence?"

"Without evidence, stop making baseless accusations!"

The man then squinted slightly, seemingly wanting to end this interrogation.

Seeing this situation, Li Jian wanted to say something, but Jiang An gently patted his hand.

"Forget it, let’s discuss this outside."

Subsequently, both left the interrogation room dispiritedly.

In the corridor, Li Jian took out a pack of cigarettes and lit one.

At this moment, nothing calmed him better than a cigarette.

He took a deep drag and then said, "What other evidence do we have now?"

"This murderer seems very cunning; handling it through traditional methods alone might not be effective."

"I don’t know if you noticed, but when I mentioned the watch earlier, he specifically had a slight contraction of his pupils, a micro-expression that didn’t escape my eyes."

"He should be the murderer."

Jiang An nodded, without any doubt that he was the murderer.

The only thing Jiang An thought about now was how to prove he was the murderer.

After a long time, Jiang An said, "The watch is heavily corroded, and the biological samples on it cannot be extracted."

"Proving that this watch is his is difficult."

"Moreover, there’s no personal marking on the watch."

Li Jian then said, "Can we investigate if this watch is a family heirloom of his?"

"What good is a family heirloom watch?"

"He can completely admit he’s lost it."

Hearing this, Li Jian frowned deeply.

Indeed, what Jiang An said was quite likely and fit the situation well.

As a matter of fact, even proving the watch as his doesn’t mean that he personally disposed of the body with it on.

He could fully argue the watch was lost or stolen.

Thus, the two stood in the corridor, anxious inside.

At this moment, Zhang Chao, Wan, Zhang Yean, and others in the interrogation room’s monitoring area also looked heavy-hearted.

They initially thought this case was turning around and about to be successfully solved.

Unexpectedly, this sudden obstacle emerged.

This person was incredibly hard to deal with, a veritable hard nut to crack.

Five minutes later, everyone gathered in the corridor.

Li Jian was about to finish his third cigarette.

Seeing Captain Li Jian looking troubled, Zhang Chao walked over, patted him on the shoulder, and said.

"Captain, don’t worry too much."

"I think this isn’t as bad as we think."

"Through the investigation of the watch, we have some persuasive points."

Li Jian nodded and said, "Some persuasion, but it’s not strong enough to bring him to court."

Wan also spoke wide-mouthed, "Wow, I didn’t expect him to look so honest and straightforward but to have such a strong anti-detection ability."

Zhang Yean also said, "Doesn’t seem that way! I thought he was a good person, looks like someone who studies, but now he seems like a bandit?"

"Don’t judge a book by its cover."

"Probably we’ve all been fooled by him, maybe even the deceased was deceived by those kind eyes."

At this moment, Li Jian’s phone suddenly rang, displaying Mr. Ma.

"Hello, Mr. Ma."

The voice on the other end sounded relaxed.

He said, "How’s the interrogation? I heard you’ve identified the suspect."

Suddently bombarded with questions, Li Jian didn’t know how to answer.

He twitched his mouth and said with difficulty, "Director, we have indeed identified the suspect, but the interrogation is progressing slowly."

"Plus, there are significant challenges in proving he’s the murderer."

"What?"

"Is the interrogation not going well?"

Mr. Ma asked.

Li Jian replied, "It’s going very unsmoothly."
