What It’s Like Being a Vampire

Chapter 27 Monitoring

After following the police back to the sub-station, Huang Mao was escorted away. The overnight interrogation will begin after completing the formalities. The police have already obtained some evidence, which can basically prove that he is the murderer of the July 31 robbery and murder. Even if he does not admit it useless.

Xiang Kun was called by Police Officer Chen to an empty conference room, and as soon as the door was closed, Officer Chen couldn't help muttering:

"What's the matter with you? Didn't I tell you before, don't act rashly, the suspect may have a controlled knife, is it very dangerous? Why did you fight back? If you can fight, you have to fight with your bare hands?"

Xiang Kun was also helpless, he didn't want to make a move, he also wanted to keep a low profile, but the yellow-haired man rushed towards him with a knife in his head, how could he hide, there were Tang Baona and her friends beside him.

However, he also knew that Police Officer Chen had good intentions and was also thinking about his safety. As the saying goes, "No matter how skilled you are, you are afraid of kitchen knives."

"That guy is hiding in a narrow passage. I was guarding outside, waiting for your people to come over. Who knows that he suddenly went crazy and rushed out with a knife. I have no choice but to do nothing."

After listening to Xiang Kun's explanation, Police Officer Chen thought for a while, pointed to a chair and asked him to sit down, and then handed him a cigarette. When Xiang Kun said no, he lit one himself and sat down too.

Looking at Police Officer Chen who was smoking, Xiang Kun couldn't help but wonder, what kind of posture is this?

"Mr. Xiang, I remember when you registered your personal information last time, you said that the previous company closed down and you were temporarily unemployed? How is it now? Is there any prospect of a new job?"

Xiang Kun was a little surprised, why police officer Chen suddenly became concerned about his personal situation, so he thought about his words and replied, "I want to take a break for a while, tidy up, and re-plan my career."

"Mr. Xiang has practiced martial arts since childhood?" Officer Chen asked again.

"Uh, I can't say it's martial arts...that is, I'm a little interested in kung fu, and I've been practicing on my own intermittently, and then I went to the gym to practice strength and so on, and I didn't practice with others systematically." In fact, Kun was not interested in kung fu or fighting before, and he had never practiced martial arts. At most, he just watched some action movies, but he knew that Officer Chen must have doubts about his skills, so he had to make up a reason for him. an explanation.

Then Officer Chen rambled on for a while, about Marvel superheroes and martial arts novels, Xiang Kun became even more confused, and simply asked, "Officer Chen, you should be very busy right now." Right? The suspect has just been arrested, don't you have to go to interrogate yourself?"

Officer Chen put the cigarette butt in the ashtray and extinguished it, and said, "It's not that fast over there, it hasn't started yet. You know, this kid is actually quite aware of anti-reconnaissance. After the case happened, we adjusted the video near the ATM." , and found that neither the security cameras inside or outside the ATM, the security cameras next to it, or the cameras outside the store had captured the suspect. The place he chose to attack happened to be without surveillance, and he avoided other surveillance angles along the way. After committing the crime, he chose The escape route also avoided surveillance, only a corner of his body was suspected to be photographed in a few of the surveillance images, but his exact whereabouts and identity could not be determined..."

"Didn't you confirm his identity the next day?" Xiang Kun wondered, he didn't think the suspect was a smart person.

At first he thought it was a vendetta or something, but when the police said it was robbery? What era is this, and smart people still rob or even kill people with knives on the street? How many people still carry large sums of cash with them? It is said that the victim who died after being stabbed by him only received 1,000 cash from the ATM, which was a red envelope for the wedding banquet tomorrow. Combined with the background of the suspect who had just been released from prison, it is estimated that the criminal thinking was more than ten years ago. The so-called anti-investigation ability is useless in modern criminal investigation methods.

Police officer Chen nodded: "That's because we got a clear picture of him from other surveillance, confirmed his identity, found his residence in this city, and found a lot of evidence there. But this kid probably heard the wind , knowing that the matter was serious this time, we ran away before we found his place, so you ran into him on the street."

Xiang Kun listened carefully and did not speak. He knew that Officer Chen must have something to say to him when he suddenly came back to the venue and revealed the contents of the investigation.

Sure enough, Officer Chen's voice changed when he said this: "At that time, we thought that the suspect's ability to escape multiple surveillance cameras so precisely must have been checked in advance, so we called up the area near the ATM a few days before the incident and all the intersections in that area. Surveillance video inspection."

Xiang Kun's heart skipped a beat as he realized something.

Officer Chen asked: "Mr. Xiang, it wasn't a coincidence that you encountered that case that day, right? During this period of time, you have been 'patrolling' around at night on a voluntary basis?"

Xiang Kun finally understood why Police Officer Chen had been chatting with him about superheroes and martial arts novels just now. found out.

Do not sleep every night, "patrol" on the street all night, for several days in a row, such a situation is definitely not normal.

Officer Chen believed that Xiang Kun might have started to think about being a "voluntary policeman" because he prevented a murder downstairs at his house that day. He deliberately patrolled the streets every night, wanting to "do what is right".

Xiang Kun shouted in his heart that he was wronged. It was a coincidence that he found the stabbed victim that night! And it was a coincidence that he didn't want to meet!

But he couldn't explain it that way. Officer Chen's understanding was the best. Otherwise, it would be difficult to explain why he went out to "patrol the streets" late at night for several consecutive nights, and he could only mutter.

So Police Officer Chen talked to him for more than ten minutes, repeatedly telling him to call the police when something happened, and not to be a hero himself, and then let him leave the branch.

Xiang Kun caught the suspect today, and he could get a reward of 20,000 yuan from the police station, but it took a while to get the money, which was a surprise.

Originally, there were reporters who made an appointment to interview, but Xiang Kun naturally refused, and hoped that Officer Chen would not reveal his name and identity to the media. If possible, it is best to limit the video of him capturing the suspect that can appear on the Internet a little bit.

Officer Chen appreciated this, and felt that Xiang Kun was the kind of person who really wanted to "fight crime", not for fame.

...

Standing at the gate of the sub-bureau, Xiang Kun was a little scared.

If I hadn't met Police Officer Chen because I prevented the murder downstairs, if I hadn't discovered the murder scene by myself, which gave the police a preconceived judgment, when the police retrieved the surveillance video of the previous few days, they saw him like this A "big bald man" who "patrols the streets" all night without sleep every night will definitely be investigated as a suspect!

It would be strange to find out that Xiang Kun not only patrols the streets all night every night, but also spends the whole day in the gym during the day after investigation.

Then if a search of his room turned up some records on his computer, and even a rabbit carcass that had been thrown into the street dumpster and wrapped in layers, it would be more problematic.

He didn't know what would happen then, although he would definitely not be charged with the crime, but it was certain that his body mutation would be exposed.

"It seems that I was not careful enough before." Xiang Kun muttered to himself.

Fortunately, the tenant of the house he bought has given him a letter of approval, and he has found a house and is ready to move. The house will be vacant around the 6th. At that time, he will move there. Although the surrounding supporting living facilities are also very complete, the population density is not as large as here, and there are not so many monitoring and so on.

After returning home, Xiang Kun went back to Tang Baona's previous WeChat message and briefly explained what happened today.

Tang Baona also explained that Yang Zhen'er misunderstood and was scolded by him and ran over to argue. She also confirmed with Xiang Kun whether the bald head was actually him in the "Reclusive Monk Real Kung Fu" video that was circulating on the Internet.

In the end, it was past twelve o'clock, and Tang Baona stopped talking and said good night to each other. Finally, I told Xiang Kun that the time we made an appointment to go hiking together was seven o'clock in the morning on Sunday.

Chatting and chatting, unknowingly, they chatted for almost two hours.

The two of them had an unfamiliar or even "embarrassing" "friendship" at first, but they unexpectedly became inexplicably harmonious and normal because of this incident.
