I have to admit that Cao Youyu's analysis is still tenable to a certain extent, but Ning Shuyi and Huo Yan will naturally not express their stance in front of him without further confirmation.
"Then let's get back to the topic." Ning Shuyi waited for Cao Youyu to express his opinions in a confident manner before asking, "Where were you on the day Hong Xinli was killed? What did you do? Can anyone prove it to you? ?」
Cao Youyu sighed and seemed a little helpless: "I knew that if you found me, you would definitely doubt me. You should still be suspicious of me no matter what I say!"
You visited my unit before, so you should have inquired about it, right? Even the conflict between Hong Xinli and I was so clear, it was impossible not to know that I was not on the show the day she had the accident.
Today, my main focus is to tell the truth, and I will never lie to you in circles to cause trouble for you or myself.
Anyway, you are the police. I believe that in this world, at least within the circle that I can come into contact with, you are the only ones who are strict with their mouths!
Then I’ll have something to say, and I won’t hide it or set up an ambush. Anyway, you won’t go to my unit and report to my boss about my personal affairs, right?
The day Hong Xinli had an accident, I took on a private job outside!
With just the salary and bonus from the company, I originally had a house, a car, and a family, which was enough for me to live a normal life. But my friend, I am getting divorced. My ex-wife has a big appetite and wants everything she wants.
In order to make a living and to be able to stand up again as soon as possible, I have to find some ways to make extra money. "
"What's your extra money?" Huo Yan asked.
"I told you not to laugh at me, wedding officiant." Cao Youyu said asking people not to laugh at me, but in fact he was quite proud. He patted his chest and said, "Our brothers are not like those wild wedding officiants outside." Same, we are from a serious academic background.
Whether it's the voice, the pronunciation, or the way you talk and behave, it definitely gives customers a more high-end, grand and classy feeling!
So in private, I actually get a lot of invitations for private work, usually on weekends. On that day, the family didn’t know how to arrange the time, so the wedding had to be held on a working day.
I couldn't find any other good reason. I could only say that I wasn't feeling well and had to go to the hospital.
If you don’t believe this, go check it out at the hotel that hosted the wedding, and the wedding company that I worked with. They videotaped and filmed the entire process. "
"Weddings usually take place in the morning, right?" Ning Shuyi asked, "What about the afternoon?"
"Afternoon? Why do you have to ask about afternoon?" Cao Youyu was stunned, "Didn't Hong Xinli die in the morning?"
"Who told you?" Ning Shuyi asked.
"No one told me that her husband notified our company in the afternoon!" Cao Youyu spread his hands, "I was looking for someone to take over my job that day anyway. I finished my personal work in the morning, and I was at home in the afternoon. I was playing games and was having a lot of fun when I saw messages in the company group chatting all the time.
I was still thinking about how big of a deal this was, why there was so much news all of a sudden. I was afraid of delaying the matter, so I quickly took a look. Only then did I know that Hong Xinli was dead. Her husband had already informed the work unit of this matter and asked the work unit to do so. Bian can also hand over the work she did when she was alive. "
After saying that, in order to show his sincerity, he added: "The game I play is online. If you investigate my online time and my battles with others, you can find out."
After chatting with Cao Youyu, Ning Shuyi and Huo Yan stood up and left.
Cao Youyu enthusiastically tried his best to persuade him to stay, hoping to have lunch together before leaving separately, but he was flatly rejected by the two people.
"Mr. Cao, I accept my kindness, but with our current relationship, it may not be appropriate to have dinner together." Ning Shuyi shook her head at him and spoke very straightforwardly to avoid wasting any more words.
After thinking about it, Cao Youyu realized this problem and nodded quickly: "Yes, yes, you are right! That's it. If you need anything in the future, just ask me.
No matter what you think, I unilaterally declared that I will treat you as friends from now on.
!
If there is anything you need from your brother, whether relatives or friends are getting married, a birthday banquet for the elderly at home, etc., just ask! I promise to give you the price for friends and relatives! "
Unexpectedly, at this time, he would not forget to bring in extra money for his private work. Ning Shuyi was a little dumbfounded and could only nod.
When leaving the teahouse, Cao Youyu looked relaxed, walking with a breeze, and greeted the teahouse owner downstairs in a very brisk tone.
"To tell you the truth," he said to the two of them when he went out, "as soon as I heard that Hong Xinli was dead, I knew something was wrong. I had such a big conflict with her before, and the police would definitely suspect me of something!"
So I've been waiting for you to find me!
It’s better now. You’ve looked for me and I’ve told you everything I need to say. Now I feel like I’ve completed my task and feel at ease in my heart!
Now it's like a stone has fallen to the ground, and the grievances between Hong Xinli and I will return to dust! "
As he spoke, he sighed with a sense of sadness, which seemed to be more or less sad.
After separating from him, Ning Shuyi and Huo Yan also drove away from the media company. On the way to confirm the alibi of Cao Youyu, they called Qi Tianhua and asked him to help find out about Tang Shuzhi.
"What kind of character do you think Cao Youyu is?" Ning Shuyi asked Huo Yan on the way.
Huo Yan had already thought about this matter just now. When Ning Shuyi asked him about it, he didn't need to think about it first and answered directly: "Looking confident on the outside but feeling inferior on the inside, he talks about being frank and honest, but in fact he is just a man with a lot of money." There is no such thing as a cowardly person."
"You don't think highly of him!" Ning Shuyi teased.
"It's not high, but I don't think he is the person we are looking for." Huo Yan was already thinking about this matter. "Judging from Hong Xinli's crime scene, the murderer could not only rely on Hong Xinli's trust when committing the crime. , let Hong Xinli eat food containing puffer fish viscera, and then acted calmly and swiftly.
From this point of view, the murderer's resentment towards Hong Xinli should be in a state that has accumulated over time, is deep-rooted, and cannot be eliminated, but it has calmed down long ago. "
Ning Shuyi smiled: "I thought so too. The murderer was a very calm person although he resented Hong Xinli.
This kind of hatred should be much deeper than Cao Youyu's resentment of coveting Hong Xinli's beauty and trying to take advantage of others' danger for so many years but failed.
Although it cannot be said that Cao Youyu will not do anything to kill people just because he is a "gentleman among villains", but in comparison, if Hong Xinli had a dispute with him and was in the dark, she would have been killed by him. He got angry and stabbed him to death, which is more in line with the relationship between him and Hong Xinli. "
