Ji Feng said, “I’m at the October Bar!”
Li Ruonan couldn’t help but freeze for a moment at her words, she didn’t expect Ji Feng to admit it so readily, “What are you doing at the October Bar?!”
“Looking for someone!”
Ji Feng said, “There’s no need to ask one sentence after another like this, let me tell you directly, yesterday I caught those fake policemen at Professor Yu’s house, they gave an account of a person called Old Li, the meeting place was at the October Bar, so I went straight there, hoping to find Old Li.”
“Going to a bar in broad daylight?!” Li Ruonan asked.
“Still want to hear it?” Ji Feng frowned.
Li Ruonan choked again and glared at him without speaking.
As if he didn’t see it, Ji Feng took two puffs of his cigarette and continued, “But to my surprise, when I arrived at the October bar, I didn’t see Old Li, I just found a fat guy who was huffing and puffing!”
“Wait a minute!”
Li Ruonan said at once, “You mean, when you arrived at the October Bar, there was a fat guy who was huffing and puffing?!”
Ji Feng nodded, “You heard it right, he was huffing and puffing!”
“That means that when you arrived at the scene, that fatty wasn’t dead?” Li Ruonan asked again.
“It didn’t come together.” Ji Feng nodded his head.
Li Ruonan nodded thoughtfully and said, “Well then, you go on.”
Ji Feng said, “It’s worth mentioning that I smelled a pungent smell as soon as I entered the bar, but didn’t know what it was, I thought it was just something emanating from the bar, or some kind of alcohol, I followed the sound of the whirring and went straight up to the first floor, then I found that fatty in the manager’s office, I woke him up and realised he wasn’t Old Li! ”
“And then what happened, why did it suddenly explode?!” Li Ruonan asked.
“Because there was a bomb in that bar!” Ji Feng said, “I was asking that fatty when I found out that there was a bomb in that bar, so I had no time to react, I could only jump out of the window with Bai Zhu, but before we could land the bomb exploded!”
Li Ruonan said, “Where was the bomb at that time?”
Ji Feng shook his head and said, “I don’t know.”
“Don’t know?” Li Ruonan asked somewhat strangely, “Then how did you find out that there was a bomb in the bar?”
How did he know there was a bomb when he didn’t even know where it was? This was a strange question!
Before Ji Feng could say anything, Bai Zhu blurted out, “Some bombs don’t need to be seen to be discovered as bombs, they can be smelled!”
Li Ruonan said, “Is there such a bomb?”
At this time, that colleague of hers couldn’t help but say, “I’ve only heard that there is a smell before a gas explosion, to be able to smell it, a bomb has a smell before it explodes …… this is really the first time I’ve heard of it!”
“That’s because you’re ignorant!” Bai Zhu said.
“……”
The policeman couldn’t help but blush a little, “Then what kind of bomb did you say that was?”
Bai Zhu said, “Just now, young Ji said that he smelled that pungent smell, that is the smell emitted from the bomb, this is a kind of earth bomb, the method of making it is not very complicated, but a chemical raw material is used, so it will emit that pungent smell, moreover, although this bomb is an earth bomb, it is incredibly powerful… …”
She and Ji Feng almost lost their lives on the spot, that was the best proof.
Bai Zhu actually knew so much about bombs, Li Ruonan was a bit curious, she had never heard of these, so she couldn’t help but ask, “How do you know so much?!”
Bai Zhu did not answer at all.
Li Ruonan was furious and said, “Bai Zhu, in fact, this time I also want to call you here to inquire about the situation, please cooperate!”
Bai Zhu said, “Haven’t I already cooperated?”
Li Ruonan said, “If you call this cooperation, then no one will not cooperate.”
Bai Zhu said, “I’ve been exposed to this kind of bomb before!”
This answer was actually no different from no answer at all, what do you mean by having come into contact with this kind of bomb, did you make it yourself, or did you say you had seen it?
Li Ruonan very obviously sensed Bai Zhu’s hostility towards herself, she was a bit baffled and wondered what kind of madness Bai Zhu was having, so she turned her gaze to Ji Feng and asked, “So, you admit to all this that you broke the lock on the door of the October Bar without permission, entered the October Bar without permission, and then the explosion happened shortly after you entered, right? ”
Ji Feng nodded his head and said, “That’s right, I admit to all of them!”
Li Ruonan frowned, “Do you know what this means?”
Ji Feng smiled, “I really don’t know.”
Li Ruonan said, “Ji Feng, I’m not joking with you, the whole process of you two entering the October bar yesterday was captured by the security cameras outside, including you picking the lock and Bai Zhu climbing up the fire hose from behind, all of it was captured by the security cameras!”
Only then did Ji Feng understand why Li Ruonan had approached him so quickly and had just said something about calling Bai Zhu here this time as well, so that was what he meant.
He asked, “And then what?”
Li Ruonan said, “And then? Ji Feng, don’t you understand what this means? Only the two of you were in and out of the scene from start to finish, and in the middle of this there was an explosion and one person died! This also means that the two of you are the most suspicious! Understand?!”
Ji Feng frowned and asked, “That’s my suspicion?”
Li Ruonan said, “That’s right! Although we don’t know what your motive is yet, as soon as we play the whole process and the surveillance video, what do you think others will think?”
“It doesn’t matter what other people think, what matters is what you police think!” Ji Feng said, “If you guys decide that I’m the murderer, then it’s useless for me to explain it any way I can!”
“What exactly happened at that time, I need you to tell me frankly!” Li Ruonan said.
“What I said is the truth, if you don’t believe me, there’s nothing I can do!” Ji Feng shook his head and said, “Moreover, I can’t be convicted on the basis of this, I’ve said everything I should say, it’s up to you to believe it or not, if there’s nothing else, I’ll leave first.”
With that, Ji Feng stood up and was ready to leave.
Li Ruonan immediately said, “Stop right there! The matter has not been investigated clearly yet, you cannot leave!”
Ji Feng frowned and said, “Haven’t I already made it very clear? Even if you suspect me, you still have to find strong evidence to prove that I did it, so don’t delay my time now!”
When Li Ruonan heard this, she became angry: “Please respect my work, I’m doing a normal investigation!”
“Then please continue your investigation, I’ve said everything I need to say.” Ji Feng waved his hand, “That’s it, if you find evidence that really proves that I blew up October Bar, then I’ll tie my hands!”
“You ……”
Seeing that Ji Feng was so unpopular, Li Ruo Nan was furious, seeing that Ji Feng was going to leave, she blurted out in her haste, “Stop, you are a major suspect, I have the right to detain you for twenty-four hours ……”
Ji Feng’s face was cold: “All right! I’ve been very cooperative with you, don’t always take ignorance as fun! Did you investigate the disappearance of Professor Yu? The two fake police officers you interrogated what results? Why did I find out about the October bar and you had to wait until the explosion before you noticed it?”
He gave Li Ruonan a look and said, “If I wanted to kill that fat guy, why would I need to use a bomb? Am I out of my mind? Don’t even think about it!”
With that, he turned around and left.
Li Ruonan’s face turned white with anger, biting her lips, but she was dumbfounded by Ji Feng’s rebuke.
Only after a while did she turn around and leave, but instead of going back to her office, she went straight to the director, Chen Kui.
“Ruo Nan, hurry up and sit down!”
Chen Kui saw Li Ruo Nan and said smilingly, “Hmm? Why don’t you look very well, did something happen?”
Li Ruonan bit her lips and said, “Director, it’s nothing, I’m just a bit tired, by the way, there are new developments in the October bar bombing case, I’ve come to report to you ……”
“Ruo Nan ah, is Ji Feng giving you a hard time?” Chen Kui suddenly asked.
“You know all about it?!” Li Ruo Nan was stunned.
“When Ji Feng came just now, I saw it upstairs, only, I couldn’t conveniently go down.”
Chen Kui said, “Strictly speaking, there are still some small misunderstandings between Ji Feng and I. Although they have been resolved, but now since Ji Feng is suspected, I can’t face him directly, or else he will definitely mistake me for targeting him. That’s why I gave this job to you, after all, there is a friendship between you, but ……”
He shook his head and sighed softly, “But I didn’t expect that Ji Feng would be so domineering and not even give you face, which is something I didn’t expect!”
Li Ruonan said, “Chief, I understand it all.”
“It’s good that you can understand. How about this, you should not be in charge of this case, let’s leave it to Zhao Gongyong, after all, you and Ji Feng are friends, don’t hurt the peace between you because of this case.” Chen Kui said.
“No need!”
Li Ruonan smiled and quickly said, “Chief, since I am in charge of this case, then I will definitely be in charge to the end, no matter if the other party is my friend or whatever, I will not show favouritism and will definitely deal with it impartially!”
Chen Kui hesitated for a moment and asked, “Are you sure? I think it’s better to forget it, otherwise I won’t be able to account for it with Mayor Baoyuan if you get into trouble later!”
“Chief, I am me, my father is my father, this is my job, I can’t get involved!” Li Ruonan said, “I want to continue to be in charge of this case, please ask the director for approval. It’s my will, it has nothing to do with anyone!”
“This …… is fine.” Chen Kui nodded and said, “Since you are so persistent, then I have to agree. However, treat Ji Feng there, it is still necessary to tolerate what can be tolerated, after all, he is still young, and being young will be a bit frivolous.”
Li Ruonan said, “I will definitely tolerate what should be tolerated, but if it is really his responsibility, I will definitely not give in, this is a matter of principle!”
Chen Kui then couldn’t help but laugh: “You ah ……”
