“That’s right!”

Lin Yi secretly praised Li Xianghui’s insight.

After all, he had only thought of this through the system reward.

“It’s possible!” Gu Yiran was enlightened.

“His mistress, Du Juan, has a history of being involved in this. Naturally, there is a possibility of him doing the same.”

“So, 1 speculate that he might have ingested a ketamine-like substance, which then caused hallucinatory effects,” Lin Yi pondered.

“And it’s possible that his death wasn’t a suicide, but rather that he lost his footing due to the hallucinations and jumped.”

“Even so, that doesn’t change the fact that it was a suicide, which would imply it has nothing to do with anyone else.”

“Not necessarily.” Lin Yi said.

“Right now, we should capture that woman called Du Juan and interrogate her. We can’t be sure if she was with Song Deyuan at the time of the incident,” Lin Yi said.

“If she wasn’t with him, it would suggest that his actions were his own. Otherwise, she might also bear some related responsibility.”

Everyone nodded, thinking that Lin Yi was right.

Zhang Hui patted Lin Yi’s shoulder.

“Kid, you’re not bad. You’ve just come to work for a day and you’ve already analyzed so many things. Work hard. Your future development will be bright.” “Thank you Brother Zhang.”

After analyzing most of the case, the atmosphere in the office became much more relaxed.

Halfway through, Gu Yiran received a call saying that Du Juan had been caught and was on the way back to the police station. They would know what had transpired after another interrogation.

Lin Yi took this opportunity to give Ji Qingyan a call.

He told her about the situation.

Judging from the current situation, it was unclear if he could return home tonight. He told her to rest first and not wait for him.

Ji Qingyan gave him a few reminders. She knew that Lin Yi was busy with work and did not waste too much time.

When it was almost ten o’clock in the evening, the woman named Du Juan was brought over.

Lin Yi sized her up. Although she was already 38 years old, she took good care of herself. She looked like she was in her early 30s, and her looks were not bad. At the very least, she was qualified to be a mistress.

Her clothes were simple. She was wearing a pair of white half-sleeved jeans and a pair of sneakers.

Although the prices were not cheap, it was obviously a set of home clothes.

Other than that, she was bare-faced and her hair was tied up messily.

It was obvious that he had been brought here unprepared.

After hearing the news of Song Deyuan’s death, she was very agitated. Even when she was brought into the interrogation room, she still had not calmed down.

“What’s going on? He can’t have committed suicide. We even talked on the phone before and he said that he would bring me overseas on holiday. He can’t have died like this.”

Du Juan’s words confirmed everyone’s thoughts.

Song Deyuan might not have committed suicide. Instead, he had stood on the edge of a cliff and lost his footing.

All of this matched Lin Yi’s guess.

“Calm down first. We have some questions for you.”

“Okay, go ahead.”

“What were you doing at noon today?” Gu Yiran asked.

“I was working at the office. I was having lunch at that time. The people at the office can vouch for this.”

Du Juan knew why the police brought her here, so she was very cooperative.

“If you don’t believe me, you can go to my company and ask, but I hope you can be more discreet. This job is not bad. Now that Song Deyuan is dead, I don’t have a source of income anymore. I don’t want to be fired by the company.”

Du Juan was a very smart person. She thought of the benefits involved and immediately voiced her request.

“We will deal with it.” Gu Yiran said.

“We found out about your record. You have a criminal record. You can’t deny that, can you?”

“I won’t deny it, but I’ve already given up on that sort of thing. You guys can draw my blood anytime for a checkup. I’ll cooperate.”

After that, Gu Yiran asked a few more questions and planned to detain her for a few hours before letting her go.

“You’ve all heard the interrogation. Tell me your thoughts,” Li Xianghui said.

“Her alibi should be no problem, and that can be easily checked. She’s a smart person and wouldn’t likely try any tricks on this matter,” Gao Mingjun said.

“As for her criminal past, I think that’s also not a problem because it can be checked,” Gu Yiran added.

“But that doesn’t prove that she hasn’t lied at all,” Lin Yi said:

“The matter of the banned substances can be manipulated through video, and earlier she mentioned keeping this low-key to avoid losing his job and income. I think this could be a smokescreen, intentionally designed to confuse us and skew our judgment.”

The others agreed with Lin Yi’s speculation. This could be the case.

“I’ll check her phone!”

Gu Yiran stood up and left the interrogation room.

However, she rushed back in a few minutes.

“I found it. They were in a video call earlier. It lasted about 40 minutes. They hung up the video call at about 11:30!”

11:30!

At this time, everyone perked up.

This was because according to his speculation, Song Deyuan should have left the gather at around 11:40. Then, he reached the edge of the cliff and lost his footing!

“And the two of them had a video call around 11:30, which suggests that Du Juan could very likely have engaged in some form of inducement!”

“After the video call ended, Song Deyuan left the room, and that’s when this tragedy occurred.”

Upon hearing this, everyone felt enlightened.

“Inspector Li, bring her out for further interrogation.”

“Don’t be anxious. Even if we can confirm that there was a video call between them, no one knows what they said. It might be something romantic in nature. If we force this accusation on her, it won’t stand up in court and can’t be used as evidence,” Li Xianghui said.

“But then again, what you hypothesize is also possible. In the video call that lasted 40 minutes, she indeed could have been engaging in some form of inducement. But even if she did induce him, that doesn’t prove she had the motive to frame Song Deyuan. It might have just been for fun. After all, people like Song Deyuan often enjoy doing these things together. Doing it alone isn’t as appealing to them.”

Everyone nodded in agreement. People of their kind typically exhibited such behaviors. They rarely did it alone and often sought companionship in such activities.

Therefore, it might just be for fun.

“Let me summarize. There are three suspicious points about Du Juan,” Li Xianghui said.

“Firstly, their conversation was romantic in nature, which is not enough to convict her.”

“Secondly, while she did engage in inducement, there was no ulterior motive behind it. She may have to bear some associated responsibility, but it wouldn’t amount to a severe punishment, and it might not even lead to criminal charges.”

“Thirdly, if she acted with the intention of benefiting from Song Deyuan’s wealth, deliberately causing this incident, that would be a capital offense!”
