Because her own mind was in a complete mess, lacking any strategy, she unconsciously stood on the same side as Wang Mao during her speech. Now that Wu Xue reminded her to describe objective facts, Qin Huairu didn't know what to say and simply started sobbing again, her nose turning red.
In contrast, Wang Mao, after a period of calm reflection, had a new line of thought. Wang Mao continued, "Liu Kai Xuan, the character of Yang Mei that you just listed is indeed very convincing! But in the case of Bang Geng's murder, this point is actually insignificant! Because you saw Yang Mei after Bang Geng was attacked! Now, both Lao Shu and I can testify that it was you who hired us to kill Bang Geng! Lao Shu was the one who committed the murder, and you were the mastermind who paid for it. I only played the role of a go-between in this case! This is the truth of the matter, and you shouldn't deny it anymore, Liu Kai Xuan! If you confess and surrender now, you can still receive lenient treatment! Otherwise, the situation you face will be very serious!"
Wang Mao's righteous and stern speech actually amused Liu Kai Xuan. This guy was truly an old hand. He could smear others' names so righteously; he was truly a god. However, framing was ultimately futile. No matter how smoothly Wang Mao spun his lies, it was ultimately just his word against others. He only had a few spoken testimonies and couldn't produce any substantive evidence. His speech was also weak and powerless.
However, Liu Kai Xuan didn't want to argue with the scoundrel Wang Mao anymore. He decided to settle this quickly. Thinking of this, Liu Kai Xuan's aura suddenly became extremely sharp. "Wang Mao, you are truly audacious! Since you knew the whole truth a long time ago, why did you say nothing when this case was publicly tried?"
"I..." Wang Mao stiffly explained, "I received a death threat from you back then and didn't dare to reveal the truth!"
"Utter nonsense!" Liu Kai Xuan continued to shout, "It was clearly you who feared the majesty of the law! Bang Geng's death is a pit you can never fill! Sooner or later, this pit will erupt and bury you completely, with no chance of recovery! To protect yourself, you have shifted all the blame onto me! In the end, your current actions are just a desperate struggle! If you can successfully frame me, you will gain merit and have your sentence reduced! The great pit of Bang Geng's murder will also be filled! Even if the truth is exposed, you are already in prison, so you can just give up, right?"
"I, you..." Wang Mao's face changed drastically, "Liu Kai Xuan, you are talking pure nonsense! Everything I just said is the truth. I think it's you who is truly guilty and trying to cover it up!"
"Is that so?" Liu Kai Xuan said righteously, "Wang Mao, stop playing your little tricks on me! What you just said is full of loopholes and pure nonsense! Now that I've exposed your scheme, you still want to deny it? Your foolish behavior will only bring you more trouble!"
As he spoke, a sharp glint flashed in Liu Kai Xuan's eyes. "Ding, system prompt, Truthful Eye skill released successfully! The target's psychological defenses have been completely shattered!"
Actually, Liu Kai Xuan hadn't used the system for many years, but today... Liu Kai Xuan made an exception! He didn't use the system because he could live a good life through his own abilities. However, when dealing with a shameless scoundrel like Wang Mao, there was no need to be so particular. After the Truthful Eye skill was released, Wang Mao's previously agitated state suddenly became much more listless. After a moment of daze, Wang Mao finally told the truth.
"Officers, I confess the truth! I was the one who killed Bang Geng. I did this all by myself, and it has nothing to do with anyone else!"
"Ah?" Wang Mao's sudden change of attitude and confession completely shocked everyone present. As everyone was stunned, Liu Kai Xuan continued, "Wang Mao, tell us honestly, what was your motive for killing Bang Geng?"
Wang Mao immediately responded honestly, "Bang Geng, that idiot, ruined my big plan! Previously, when I led my brothers to act at Meng Hu Industrial Company, everything was very carefully planned! It was all because that idiot Bang Geng acted without authorization and left a lot of clues at the scene! At that time, Bang Geng's involvement in the theft could no longer be concealed! Bang Geng knew he couldn't escape the law, so he found Yang Mei and asked to see me! After I understood the situation, I knew that this scourge, Bang Geng, could not be kept alive! Otherwise, he would become a breakthrough for the police investigation, and in the end, he would drag me down too! I saw that Bang Geng was strong and healthy, and it would be difficult to kill him directly, so I got a few bottles of wine and invited him to drink! After Yang Mei and I got Bang Geng drunk, Yang Mei kept watch outside, and I strangled Bang Geng with a rope! Afterwards, to cover up the truth, I disposed of Bang Geng's body in the river overnight!"
As Wang Mao said this, Wu Xue echoed, "In that case, the situation basically matches! The forensic autopsy found that Bang Geng's body did contain a high concentration of alcohol! The victim had consumed a large amount of alcohol before death, and in addition to the stab wounds, there were indeed obvious ligature marks on his neck! Wang Mao, please immediately tell us clearly, where was the first scene of Bang Geng's murder?"
Wang Mao honestly replied, "The first scene of Bang Geng's murder was in the civilian house at No. 286 Xingluo Village! I had lived there for a period of time before. After Bang Geng died, I moved out of that courtyard that very night!"
As Wang Mao and Wu Xue were deeply discussing the truth of the case, Qin Huairu suddenly lost control and lunged at Wang Mao. "Wang Mao, you mad beast, you killed my son! I will kill you to avenge my son!" As she spoke, Qin Huairu lunged forward and began to punch and kick Wang Mao fiercely.
