Dancing on the edge of a knife

At this time, Alex is in the store, waiting for the police to come. After doing this, he has a hunch that Tao would not be able to withstand the police interrogation and would definitely tell them about his thing.

He has already thought about how to deal with the police later.

After a while, a police car stops at the door of his store, and Yang gets out of the car. Alex pretends to look at it with doubt, and then Yang walks to Alex and says,

"There are some things that require your cooperation in our investigation, please go with us right now."

Alex nods and gets into the police car without any hesitation.

On the way, Yang asks, "Do you know why we are looking for you?"

Alex nods and says, "Yes, I know."

"Oh?" Yang asks curiously, "What's the matter?"

Alex turns his head and looks at him, and only says one word,

"Tao."

Yang frowns immediately. Alex's attitude makes him a little unsure and he didn't expect that Alex would say it so easily. Frankly speaking, he truly finds that he is getting more and more confused about Alex.

Of course, he also knows that he seems to have never understood Alex.

After getting Alex's answer, Yang does not continue to ask, since it is not too late to go to the police station to ask him some information. Anyway, he could not escape.

There is no conversation along the way. When they arrive at the police station, Alex is arranged in the interrogation room. Yang walks to Leader Chen and tell him about what happened on the way.

Chen frowns. He doesn't know what Alex is going to do now either.

"It's okay. Since he told you that, it means he wants to say it. Let's see what he really wants to say."

Alex looks around curiously, and the interrogation room here is exactly the same as in the TV series.

At this time, Chen and Yang walks in. Chen looks at Alex directly and seriously,

"We meet again."

"Yeah." Alex nods causally.

"Then tell me, Tao said that you approached her and offered an opportunity to launder money for her. What's going on exactly?"

Alex looks at him for a while, and then says,

"Let's get straight to the point. You also know about the note, right?"

Chen nods and motions Alex to continue.

"Isn't this note strange? Who put the note there exactly? Why is the address exactly there? Who also put the money there?"

Chen pats the table hard and says,

"Pay attention to your attitude. We are the ones asking you now, not you. Find out your own identity."

Alex nods and explains,

"In fact, knowing this note was a complete accident. I went to the fast restaurant to eat at that time. You also saw my situation that I was unable to move easily. The clerk then explained to me that someone had resigned and complained that it was a sudden resignation, which made them unprepared.

I was concerned about this because Dong often went to this restaurant before, so I asked that clerk some questions. After hearing the clerk's description, I became more suspicious.

Then I found Tao and found that she used lots of cash, which was extremely not normal, so then I cheated her out."

Chen nods and asks, "How did you find her?"

"I heard it from the clerk."

"Why did that clerk tell you?"

"He didn't tell me instead of telling his colleagues. I happened to be eating closed to them there and heard it."

"What else do you know?"

Alex repeats what Tao has told him.

Chen looks at Alex and thinks for a moment, then asks, "What do you think?"

"I think you guys are mistaken."

"What do you mean?"

"The appearance of this note was either placed by Dong, me, or someone else on purpose, since I believe that this location is not a coincidence.

I can be sure that the note was not placed by me. Of course, I am not saying this to clear myself of suspicion, but if it was placed by me, I would not have needed to investigate."

Chen nods. If it was placed by Alex, there would be no need to do so.

"Since it wasn't me, then it could be Dong, but I can't figure out why he would put this note? He wouldn't even make this note because it doesn't make any sense.

Then I can only think that someone else put it there, and who would know that special location? Only the real murderer would know that place."

"You mean, Dong was not the real murderer?"

Alex nods and says,

"I'm just guessing, and there is no evidence. If Dong was not the murderer, then why would he kill me? All I can think of is hatred.

But the two of us have no intersection at all in the past, why did he hate me so much? Even want to kill me? Combined with the place where we met, is it possible that he knew Alice?

He thinks that I killed Alice, so he wanted to kill me for revenge."

"We have done an investigation before, but the two didn't know each other certainly."

Alex pretends to be puzzled and asks in confusion,

"Didn't know each other? How could it belike this? That doesn't make sense. Then did he have any intersection with the other dead?"

Chen shakes his head.

Alex looks at Chen and asks in confusion,

"Really? Did I guess wrong? This is weird. Why did he kill me if he didn't know the deceased? Was he really the murderer? How do you explain this note? How do you explain the money in that place? After all, Dong was not that rich, as we all know.

Could it be that you missed some details?"

At this point, Alex suddenly looks up, as if he has thought of something,

"Officer Chen, do you still remember the security guard Li ? Could Dong be in the same situation as Li?"

Chen looks at Alex and does not answer the question, but asks, "Have you recovered your memory?"

Alex nods, "Yes, I recovered it recently."

He pretended to have amnesia before to deal with the police and to avoid exposing his time travel. Now that things have come to this point, he doesn't care whether he has lost his memory or not, anyway, it's all over.

Chen sneers and says ironically, "Your recovery time is really coincidental."

Alex smiles friendly, "Why? Officer Chen, it seems that you don't want me to recover my memory?"

"How could that be? Recovery is a really good thing." Chen waves his hand, and then asks, "Do you think that Dong is the same as Li?"

"I don't know, just some guesses, because if it's not the case, I can't think of why Dong would kill me at that time. Of course, the premise of this guess is that Dong was not the real murderer.

In other words, you probably can find out if you check it out again. Look at his driving trajectory and see if there are any items of Alice in his house, which is so easy to check."

"We will check it out later, and now you continue."

Alex nods,

"Okay, following this line of thought, if Dong was not the real murderer, and I am not the real murderer, then there may be someone else. This person put the note, and he may have used some method that I don't know to confuse Dong and make Dong think that I was the real murderer who killed Alice."

"If it is really like what you said, what is the purpose of this person?"

"Frame-up, or something else, I don't know right now."

Chen nods and says, "Okay, let's do this first, I'll ask you to stay here for a few days, because you are a serious suspect."

"I know, and I will certainly cooperate with you to the fullest." Alex replies.

When Alex is taken away from the interrogation room, he has figured it out. He is alone and weak now, and he couldn't fight against his father at all. If he wants to fight his father, he has to bring in another force, and the police is undoubtedly very suitable.

The police is sharp, insightful, experienced, and most importantly, responsible and has a bottom line, which may really help him this time.

But the police will not tell him what they will find in the case. If he wants to know the results of the police's investigation, he must get involved himself. Only in this way can he figure out the context of the whole incident.

Here Alex needs to carefully grasp the degree by himself. He must provide some clues to the police appropriately, and he must not let the police doubt him. This is very difficult, but Alex truly likes this feeling, the feeling of dancing on the edge of a knife.

Alex finds that the more exciting the situation, the clearer his mind becomes. He thinks, perhaps he really inherits his father's genes perfectly.
