Chapter 1693 Why Are You Looking for Me?

The night was dark and the moonlight was thin. Qin Yuan was sitting in the office, a desk lamp lighting up the table alone, and the cold autopsy report lay quietly in his hand. Every word in the report was like a sharp blade cutting through the doubts and uneasiness in his heart.

Qin Yuan's brows furrowed as he examined every detail in the report again, his eyes finally fixed on the word "drowning". He picked up the phone and dialed the number of the medical examiner's office: "Hey, is this Xiao Li? I have some questions about Chu Liang's autopsy report... Yes, I want to know more details about his drowning."

On the other end of the phone, Xiao Li's voice sounded a little tired, but he still answered Qin Yuan's questions professionally. After hanging up the phone, the doubts in Qin Yuan's heart did not dissipate, but became even stronger. Chu Liang was in good health and had a successful career, so why did he suddenly choose to commit suicide? Moreover, according to the on-site investigation, the place where he drowned did not meet the conventional choices of suicide.

Qin Yuan stood up, walked to the window, and stared at the dark night sky outside. There was a voice in his heart calling, telling him that this case was not simple. He must find the truth, for Chu Liang and for his persistence in justice.

Early the next morning, Qin Yuan drove to the river where Chu Liang drowned. The gurgling river seems to be whispering unknown secrets. Qin Yuan walked slowly along the river bank, searching the river with his eyes, trying to find any clues. However, the river was calm and calm, as if everything had gone with the wind.

He stopped and closed his eyes, the image of Chu Liang drowning appearing in his mind. Suddenly, he opened his eyes and his gaze became firm. He took out the map and began to calculate something on the map. His fingers slid on the map and finally drew a circle in a place.

"Here..." Qin Yuan murmured to himself, "This is the last place where Chu Liang might have appeared before he drowned."

He looked up into the distance, and there was exactly the place he had circled - an inconspicuous community. According to his investigation, Chu Liang's lover, Du Xiaojuan, lived there.

Qin Yuan drove to that community, his heart full of contradictions and struggles. He didn't want to believe that Chu Liang's death was related to Du Xiaojuan, but various signs showed that she might be the key to solving the mystery.

After arriving at the community, Qin Yuan found Du Xiaojuan's residence. He took a deep breath and knocked on the door. The door opened slowly, and Du Xiaojuan appeared in front of him, her eyes full of surprise and uneasiness.

"Officer Qin, why are you here?" Du Xiaojuan's voice trembled slightly, as if she had foreseen something.

"Miss Lin, I want to talk to you about Chu Liang." Qin Yuan's voice was low and powerful. His eyes were fixed on Du Xiaojuan's eyes, trying to catch any trace of lies.

Du Xiaojuan was silent for a moment, and finally nodded, signaling Qin Yuan to enter the room. The room was clean and warm, but there was a depressing atmosphere in the air.

"Miss Lin, do you know why Chu Liang chose to commit suicide?" Qin Yuan asked straight to the point.

Du Xiaojuan raised her head suddenly, a trace of pain flashed in her eyes. "No, he can't commit suicide! Chu Liang loves life so much, how could he give up his life so easily?"

Qin Yuan looked at Du Xiaojuan's sincere eyes and couldn't help but feel a little shaken in his heart. But he knew that he couldn't easily believe anyone's words, especially in this world full of lies and deception.

"Ms. Lin, according to our investigation, Chu Liang came here before drowning. Can you tell me what state he was in at that time?" Qin Yuan continued to ask.

Du Xiaojuan lowered her head and twisted her hands together tightly. "That day... he came to me and was in a very depressed mood. He said that the company was in big trouble and he might not be able to protect me anymore. But I never thought that he would choose to commit suicide because of this..."

Qin Yuan's brows furrowed, and he felt that this case was far more complicated than imagined. Chu Liang's death may not only be due to the company's problems, but also may be related to his personal emotions.

"Miss Lin, can you tell me, did Chu Liang mention any special place or person before he drowned?" Qin Yuan tried to get more clues from Du Xiaojuan.

Du Xiaojuan was silent for a moment, and finally spoke slowly: "He mentioned a person...a person who made him feel a lot of pressure. But he said that he would handle everything and would not let me be implicated."

Qin Yuan's heart tightened suddenly, and he felt that he was getting closer to the truth. "Who is that man? Can you tell me his name?"

Du Xiaojuan raised her head, fear and anxiety flashing in her eyes. "I...I don't dare to say it. That person is very powerful, and I'm afraid that I will get into trouble if I speak out."

Qin Yuan looked at Du Xiaojuan's frightened eyes, and his heart was filled with sympathy and understanding. But he knew that he couldn't just give up. He must find that person and uncover the truth about Chu Liang's drowning.

"Ms. Lin, I understand your worries. But please believe that the police will protect you and will not let you suffer any harm. Now, please tell me the name of that person." Qin Yuan's voice was firm and powerful, as if to give Du Xiaojuan injected an invisible force.

Du Xiaojuan was silent for a moment, and finally slowly spoke out the name. A sharp light flashed in Qin Yuan's eyes, and he knew that what he had to do next would determine the direction of this case.

The night was as dark as ink, and the hustle and bustle of the city gradually quieted down under the cover of night. Only the occasional sound of police sirens broke the silence, indicating that unknown secrets were being revealed. Qin Yuan stood at the door of the police station, his brows furrowed, his eyes like torches, and the anxiety and determination in his heart intertwined into a complex web. Chu Liang's death was like a huge rock pressing on his heart, making him unable to let go.

Qin Yuan still felt that he had overlooked something.

"Take people immediately and search the home of Chu Liang's lover Du Xiaojuan." Qin Yuan's voice was low and powerful, as if every word contained unquestionable authority. He turned and looked at the police officers behind him, his eyes revealing an irresistible firmness.

The police officers acted quickly, and several police cars cut through the night and rushed to Du Xiaojuan's residence. Qin Yuan sat in the co-pilot's seat, his eyes fixed on the front, but he was thinking about every detail of the case in his heart. Chu Liang's drowning, the autopsy report that looked like suicide, and the tangled relationship between him and Du Xiaojuan before his death... all of these seemed to point to an unknown secret.

It was late at night when we arrived at Du Xiaojuan's residence. This is a villa on the edge of the city. It looks quiet on the outside, but it hides unknown secrets. Qin Yuan led the police officers to quickly surround the villa, and then signaled them to prepare for action.

"Action!" Qin Yuan gave an order, and the police officers rushed into the villa quickly. They were divided into several groups and carefully searched every corner of the villa. Qin Yuan took several experienced police officers and went straight to Du Xiaojuan's bedroom.

The bedroom door was pushed open, and Qin Yuan and others quickly entered. I saw that the house was in a mess, and clothes were scattered all over the floor. Obviously, there had been a fierce fight here. Qin Yuan's eyes searched the house and finally fell on a torn photo. The people in the photo were Chu Liang and Du Xiaojuan. Their smiles were frozen at that moment, but they could never go back to the past.

"There are traces of fighting here, find Du Xiaojuan!" Qin Yuan quickly gave the order, and the police officers immediately launched a carpet search in the villa.

Soon, a police officer came from the backyard of the villa: "Found it! Du Xiaojuan is here!"

Qin Yuan and others quickly rushed to the backyard, only to see Du Xiaojuan curled up in the corner, panicked, with fear flashing in her eyes. Qin Yuan walked up and stared at her closely, as if he wanted to see through her soul.

"Du Xiaojuan, do you know why we came here?" Qin Yuan's voice was low and powerful, and every word seemed to hit her heart.

Du Xiaojuan trembled, did not speak, but lowered her head. Seeing this, Qin Yuan continued: "You are not free from responsibility for Chu Liang's death. Now, you'd better tell the truth, otherwise you will bear the consequences."

Du Xiaojuan's body trembled violently, and she finally raised her head, with a desperate light flashing in her eyes. "I... I admit that I killed Chu Liang."

Qin Yuan's eyebrows raised slightly, he was not surprised, but more determined in his judgment. "Tell me, why did you want to kill him?"

A complex emotion flashed in Du Xiaojuan's eyes, and she slowly opened her mouth and told a story full of love, hatred and vengeance. It turned out that although Chu Liang was successful in his career, he was a man who was not loyal in his feelings. While dating Du Xiaojuan, he also had unclear relationships with other women. After learning the truth, Du Xiaojuan was filled with anger and despair. She tried to break up with Chu Liang, but Chu Liang was unwilling to let her go and even threatened her life.

"I... I just wanted to protect myself, I didn't want to kill him." Du Xiaojuan's voice choked, tears slid down her cheeks, "That night, he came to me and we had a quarrel. He... He suddenly hit me, and I... I picked up the vase next to him and smashed it at him. I didn't expect that he would die because of this..."

Qin Yuan listened to Du Xiaojuan's confession, and his heart was filled with emotion. Behind this seemingly simple case, there is such a complex emotional entanglement. He took a deep breath, looked at Du Xiaojuan and said, "No matter what your motive is, killing is illegal. You must pay for your actions."

Du Xiaojuan did not speak, but lowered her head silently. She knew that she could not escape the punishment of the law. Qin Yuan looked at her, and an inexplicable emotion surged in his heart. He did not sympathize with Du Xiaojuan, but sighed for the complexity of this case.

"Take her back." Qin Yuan waved his hand, signaling the police officers to take Du Xiaojuan away. He stood there, watching Du Xiaojuan being taken to the police car, but he did not feel relieved. He knew that although this case was solved, the social problems reflected behind it were far more complicated than he imagined.

After returning to the police station, Qin Yuan gave a detailed report of the case to the director. After listening, the director praised Qin Yuan's keen insight and decisive action. "Qin Yuan, you have made a great contribution this time! This case can be solved so quickly, all thanks to your efforts!"

Qin Yuan smiled modestly, but there was not much joy in his heart. He knew that he was just doing what a policeman should do. He looked at the night sky outside the window, and an inexplicable feeling welled up in his heart.

The night was dark, and the lights in the police station were still bright, as if fighting against the evil in the darkness. Qin Yuan sat in the office, frowning, staring at the case materials in his hand. Du Xiaojuan's straightforward confession filled him with doubts. He clearly felt that there were deeper secrets hidden behind this case, and he had not yet found the key to reveal the truth.

"It's not that simple." Qin Yuan whispered to himself. His intuition told him that Du Xiaojuan's confession was too smooth, as if she was covering up something. He picked up the phone and dialed Guo Chao's number.

"Guo Chao, find Du Xiaojuan's social relations immediately. I want to know the situation of everyone around her." Qin Yuan's voice was low and powerful, and every word revealed an unquestionable firmness.

On the other end of the phone, Guo Chao responded quickly: "Yes, Captain Qin! I will act immediately!"

After hanging up the phone, Qin Yuan stood up and walked to the window, staring at the dark night sky outside. His heart was full of contradictions and struggles. On the one hand, he hoped to uncover the truth of the case as soon as possible and give justice to the deceased; on the other hand, he was afraid that the cruelty and complexity behind the truth would subvert his understanding of human nature.

Soon, Guo Chao returned to the office with the results of the investigation. His face was full of fatigue, but his eyes were shining with excitement. "Captain Qin, I found out! There is indeed a man around Du Xiaojuan who often comes in and out of her home. Moreover, this man is her biological brother, Du Wei."

Qin Yuan's eyebrows raised slightly, he quickly flipped through the information handed over by Guo Chao, and his eyes stayed on Du Wei's photo for a moment. This young man looks a bit like Du Xiaojuan, but his eyes reveal a different kind of cunning and ambition.

"Du Wei..." Qin Yuan muttered to himself, with an inexplicable premonition in his heart. He looked up at Guo Chao and asked, "Does this Du Wei have any special background?"

Guo Chao nodded and continued, "I checked it out. Du Wei is a gangster who often participates in some illegal activities. Moreover, he has a very close relationship with Du Xiaojuan. Some people even say that he is the real manipulator behind Du Xiaojuan."

Qin Yuan's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he seemed to see the intricate network of relationships behind the case. He took a deep breath and said to Guo Chao: "Summon Du Wei immediately. I want to interrogate him personally."

In the interrogation room, the lights were dim and the atmosphere was depressing. Du Wei was brought into the room, his eyes flashing with anxiety and provocation. Qin Yuan sat opposite him, his eyes were like torches, as if he wanted to see through his soul.

"Du Wei, do you know why we are looking for you?" Qin Yuan's voice was low and powerful, and every word seemed to hit Du Wei's heart.

Du Wei pretended to be calm and grinned: "Humph, isn't it because of my sister's matter? You police are really something, my sister has confessed, what are you still tossing?"
