The Devil is Lurking By Your Side

As soon as Lin Xin's voice fell, there was silence in the office. The eyes of several people looked straight at Zheng Zhiqiang, and everyone was silent, waiting for him to speak.

Zheng Zhiqiang has a feeling of being skinned alive, and his whole person is instantly restless, but they can't help it.

"Do you have the courage to do it, but you don't have the courage to say it?" At this time, Officer Tang's cold voice floated in Principal Huang's office.

Such an unaccountable boy has long been displeased by him.

Zheng Zhiqiang lowered his head after listening. He usually relied on his parents to be rich and arrogant in school. He never felt that he had done anything wrong, and he never felt that he needed to take care of the feelings of others.

At this time, Chen Yanling was dead. As her boyfriend, he couldn't leave the relationship anyway. Then, he is now trapped in the principal's room again, and suddenly feels helpless.

Now, Lin Xin forced herself to tell the reason for the quarrel with Chen Yanling, which made him panic. He was afraid that what he was going to say next would immediately become the object of police suspicion, so he was very hesitant. However, when he was in full view, there was nothing he could do about it.

The usual sharp teeth disappeared without a trace in front of a few of them.

After a long time, he said in a low voice: "I... I quarreled with her because she suspected that I was riding two boats..."

There was crying in his voice.

"Then do you have it?" Lin Xin raised her eyebrows and asked.

Zheng Zhiqiang was silent again. His silence let everyone know the answer.

He tacitly agreed.

"Zheng Zhiqiang, speak more clearly." Principal Huang said in a calm voice, giving him no chance to escape.

"Well, yes." Zheng Zhiqiang took a deep breath and admitted.

Lin Xin nodded, and said, "You can give a rough idea of ​​how you quarreled that night."

Zheng Zhiqiang raised his head and looked at Lin Xin. He opened his mouth wide, and was speechless for a while. Lin Xin frowned and looked at him, and asked, "What's the matter? Do you have anything unspeakable? If not, just say it right away."

Later, she couldn't help Zheng Zhiqiang being verbose at this moment, because she felt that he was wasting the precious time of the police.

"Let's talk about it! What are you afraid of a man!" Police Officer Tang shouted.

Zheng Zhiqiang was frightened again by him and shook his body. Then he lowered his eyes and said, "She suspected that I was riding two boats, and then she said that Xiaoying had seen it with her own eyes and asked if I had done such a thing."

"Then, go on." Lin Xin said, and glanced down at her watch.

"I didn't admit it at first, saying that Xiaoying lied, that she lied to instigate the relationship between us. However, Chen Yanling seemed to trust her friends more, she didn't believe me at all, and kept asking me. Later, I I admit it when I can’t bear it. I admit that I cheated, but I still love her, so I beg her for forgiveness. However, Chen Yanling is not so coaxing, she cries and screams, and beats me, so I can’t stand it anymore. ...And hit her too..." When Zheng Zhiqiang said this, he raised his head and glanced at everyone.

"You hit her?" Lin Xin asked.

"Yes, I beat her. Then, after she was beaten by me, she said in a fit of anger that she wanted to leave, said she wanted to leave me, and I still harassed with her, but she never listened to me. So, I myself I lost my patience and let her go. However, I really did not expect that she would never come back once she left... But... But... She... She was not killed by me, police officer... "After Zheng Zhiqiang said that, there seemed to be a trace of guilt hidden in the corner of his eyes.

Lin Xin eased her face when she saw him doing this. She later asked, "Is this the first time you have done something to Chen Yanling?"

When Zheng Zhiqiang heard her question, his face immediately showed trepidation. When everyone saw him like this, they already knew his answer.

"It's not the first time, is it?" Lin Xin looked at him coldly.

Zheng Zhiqiang rubbed his sweaty hands and looked very scared. He lowered his head and said, "It's not the first time. However, I didn't mean to beat her, but I can't control my temper sometimes."

"You mean you still know that you are violent?" Lin Xin asked.

Zheng Zhiqiang didn't dare to answer Lin Xin, he lowered his head and didn't dare to look at them at all.

"Mr. Zheng, do you know that your violent tendencies are enough to make us treat you as a key suspect? In addition, you discovered that after Chen Yanling disappeared, you did not report the crime quickly but deliberately delayed the time, which made us even more compelled to treat the suspect Your identity is buckled on your head.” When Lin Xin said this, she paused, changed the subject, and asked: “Did anyone testify for you about your quarrel with Chen Yanling?”

"Yes." Zheng Zhiqiang nodded, then looked up at Lin Xin, and said: "It was just after the dinner was over, she and I came to a park, and then we started arguing there. That night, there were many more The couple also stayed in the park and saw us arguing. Officer, if you don’t believe it, you can ask them."

Lin Xin looked at Zheng Zhiqiang's eyes that were anxious and not like a lie, and then nodded: "Well, we know about this."

"So, after you quarreled, did you still find Chen Yanling? Do you still contact her?" Lin Xin asked again.

"No more. Since then, I have never seen or contacted Chen Yanling again." Zheng Zhiqiang whispered.

Lin Xin gave an "um", lowered her head and thought for a while, then asked: "By the way, you said you cheated, then who did you cheat on?"

"She is my ex-girlfriend and her name is Xiaowei." Zheng Zhiqiang said.

Lin Xin suddenly flashed in her mind and asked, "What's Xiaowei's height?"

When Lin Xin asked this question, everyone except Zheng Zhiqiang was stunned.

Why did she suddenly ask Zheng Zhiqiang's ex-girlfriend, Xiao Wei's height?

Although Zheng Zhiqiang was also very curious, he still replied: "About 172 cm or 173 cm."

A height of 170 cm or more is very high for a girl. So, does Zheng Zhiqiang prefer tall girls?

Why is it such a coincidence?

Peng Jingchun, Xiaowei and Chen Yanling all have almost the same height.

However, Zheng Zhiqiang did not know Peng Jingchun, and he did not appear in Yang City during the time Peng Jingchun was killed. Therefore, he is unlikely to be involved in the murder of Peng Jingchun in Yang City.

Seeing that there was nothing to ask, Lin Xin said to Zheng Zhiqiang: "Okay, we are done asking, you can leave first."

Zheng Zhiqiang looked at Lin Xin with a suspicious look, and couldn't understand why she suddenly asked about Xiaowei's height. However, since Lin Xin allowed himself to leave, he wished to escape quickly.

So, he nodded, and immediately moved his **** away from the sofa, walked quickly to the door, opened the door and slipped away.

"He ran faster than anyone else, hehe." Yang Cong said with a sneer looking at his leaving back.

Later, Lin Xin, Officer Tang and others stayed at the school. They questioned the students and teachers in the school who had contact with Chen Yanling.

Everyone unanimously said that Chen Yanling is a well-behaved student, and has not caused much trouble to the school so far. Later, they also said that they had not seen Chen Yanling since last week. Some people even thought she was sick, so they took sick leave and did not come to school.

Seeing that they could no longer ask anything from their mouths, Lin Xin said to President Huang later: "President Huang, I hope you can cooperate with the police. If there is any unusual situation, please notify the Public Security Bureau as soon as possible. Then, I also want to ask President Huang to pay more attention to Zheng Zhiqiang's every move. If there is anything suspicious about him, please contact us as soon as possible."

After Principal Huang agreed, he watched Lin Xin and others leave the principal's office. He sat limply in his leather chair.

At the end of the day, he was really exhausted.

However, he hopes that his tiredness will be rewarded, and he does not want a murderer in the school. Otherwise, it will ruin the reputation and reputation of the entire school.

Lin Xin and others stepped out of the school. Seeing that it was evening, she turned her head and said to Officer Tang, "Let’s go back to the Public Security Bureau first. After dinner, we are discussing some things, and then I will also ask Officer Wu by the way. Are there any updates there."

"Good." Officer Tang nodded and agreed.

However, he asked again later: "Officer Lin, why did you suddenly ask about Xiaowei's height?"

Lin Xin shook her head and smiled bitterly, and said: "I just suddenly remembered the case of Peng Jingchun, and then the case of Chen Yanling. Therefore, I naturally overlapped the two cases and found that the two female deceased were both There is one thing in common, that is, the heights are almost the same. As for that Xiaowei, she has a close relationship with Zheng Zhiqiang, so it was only because of her height that she raised such questions to Zheng Zhiqiang. And we can see from here Zheng Zhiqiang may have a certain preference for tall women, so is the murderer the same as him?

"So, Officer Lin, do you still suspect that Zheng Zhiqiang killed Chen Yanling?" Officer Tang asked.

"No, no, that's not what I meant. Although Zheng Zhiqiang is suspicious, it doesn't mean that he killed her. It's just that if Zheng Zhiqiang likes tall women, and the murderer just likes this type of woman, then What causes them to have a preference for this type of women?" Lin Xin lowered her head and thought.

For a long time, she turned to Yang Cong and asked Yang Cong, "Yang Cong, do you have any insights?"

Yang Cong scratched his head, showing an awkward smile, and said, "I really don't have any opinions. I like girls who are small in size. However, I think it is very likely that they think that tall women are very standard. Bar.."

standard. .

Is it as standard as a model walking on the runway?

The figures of the models are all standard and can perfectly show the clothes designed by the costume designer. They even put on high heels to highlight their height, so that they can show their clothes more perfectly.

Women's standard figure, their height and high heels. .

These three thoughts emerged in Lin Xin's mind.

However, what do these three ideas represent?
