Chapter 210: Chapter 210 I Didn’t Kill Her Chapter 210: Chapter 210 I Didn’t Kill Her Ye Chuyi didn’t know how she had ended up at the police station; the news of Tian Qiugui’s death had left her in a state of shock for a long time, unable to come to her senses.
Her mind was in complete chaos, unable to make sense of the scattered clues.
Why was Tian Qiugui murdered?
Who killed her?
Why kill her?
Could it be that Tian Ma wasn’t just extorting her?
Unlike the last traffic accident, this time, she was locked in the interrogation room, being questioned alone.
Premeditated murder, a grave crime, punishable by the maximum penalty of death.
The criminal detectives were extraordinarily cautious.
“Ye Chuyi, did Tian Qiugui extort five million from you?”
“Yes.”
Actually, it was fifteen million, but only five million was transferred from Sheng Tingyuan’s card, which could be traced; the other ten million was transferred by Ivy from an overseas account, which the police couldn’t trace back to its true owner.
“Why didn’t you report the extortion?”
“Because she said she had a secret to tell me. I was very curious about that secret.”
“Is that all?”
“That’s all.”
The criminal detective’s face showed a hundred signs of disbelief, “You’d better cooperate honestly with our investigation. Only then can you reduce your criminal responsibility!”
“I didn’t kill her.”
Ye Chuyi didn’t look good, Tian Qiugui’s sudden death gave her a very bad feeling, “When did she die? Do you suspect me merely because she extorted me?”
“After forensic identification, her time of death was around seven o’clock last night. And you were outside the Wen Family villa all yesterday afternoon, only leaving at seven. Most importantly, there is a surveillance blind spot outside the Wen Family villa; you just happened to have been to that blind spot, and Tian Qiugui’s body was found right there.”
Ye Chuyi was startled, “That surveillance blind spot?”
Shi Youjin had been there too!
A bone-chilling coldness spread throughout her body!
How could this be such a coincidence? Why such a coincidence?
Seeing the change in her expression, the detective quickly followed up with a question, “Do you have an accomplice?”
Ye Chuyi knew he suspected that she and Shi Youjin had collaborated to kill Tian Ma.
She looked at the detective with a firm voice, “I didn’t kill her, and I don’t have an accomplice.”
“According to our understanding, Tian Qiugui didn’t just extort you; she also extorted Lin Yueqin, your mother. So far, Lin Yueqin has transferred a total of fifteen million to Tian Qiugui.”
“What?!”
Ye Chuyi was shocked, “She extorted Lin Yueqin too? How is that possible! Lin Yueqin doesn’t have that much money. Are you sure you haven’t made a mistake?”
“There is no mistake; the money definitely was transferred from Lin Yueqin’s card, all to Tian Qiugui’s son’s account. As for how she got the money, our other colleagues are interrogating her on that.”
“She was arrested too?”
“Yes.”
“What about Shi Youjin?”
The detective looked at her deeply, “He’s been arrested too. You three are being interrogated separately, so you’d best tell the truth. Otherwise, if you three don’t match up, it’s very unfavorable for you.”
Ye Chuyi wasn’t afraid of the detective interrogating her because she hadn’t killed anyone, and according to what he said about the so-called “evidence”, they couldn’t possibly find her guilty.
Yet even so, she felt a heavy weight in her heart.
Because she finally understood why Shi Youjin had been loitering around the Wen Family villa.
He had been scoping out the place in advance.
And because of the “secret” Qi Yunfan told her about, she just happened to have watched Shi Youjin all yesterday afternoon.
Then she had the bad luck of becoming a suspect.
In the days that followed, Ye Chuyi was interrogated repeatedly, the same question asked over and over to verify whether she was lying.
Since she had parked for so long outside the Wen Family villa yesterday, the police considered her highly suspicious, suspecting that she colluded with Shi Youjin and Lin Yueqin to murder Tian Qiugui.
The interrogation continued until the evening.
Ye Chuyi had been questioned for the entire day and was exhausted and parched.
The detective gave her a glass of water and asked a question unrelated to the murder case, “Why did you change your surname to Ye?”
Ye Chuyi took a sip of water and answered mechanically, “I like the surname, so I changed it.”
“Why do you like that surname?”
Ye Chuyi was silent.
Of course, changing her surname to Ye was not because she liked it, but she did indeed have a special fondness for the surname because it was Lady Wen’s surname.
