68: Chapter 67 Filing a Record

"Name!"

"Li Changsheng."

"Age."

"Twenty-seven."

Inside the police station, facing the police interrogation, Li Changsheng appeared very calm. He had assumed that because he had just killed someone, even if he wasn't panicked, he should have experienced various uncomfortable reactions.

But the reality was the exact opposite; he only felt a sense of ease throughout his body, as if the dark clouds that had been hanging over his head had dispersed, leaving him feeling pleasant and refreshed.

Could it be because I have died once before, and in this life, I have experienced despair?

Li Changsheng thought silently to himself.

Nearby, Captain Zhang, who was responsible for taking notes, had been glancing at Li Changsheng off and on, while silently writing the following commentary in his notebook.

"Meticulous mind, possesses psychological resilience far beyond that of an ordinary person."

After finishing the final record, he smiled and said, "Mr. Li, please don't be nervous. We are just conducting a routine inquiry. After all, although this person was a criminal, you did kill him, so we need to understand the detailed information about the incident."

Seeing Li Changsheng nod, Captain Zhang stood up, patted his colleague on the shoulder to signal him to continue, and then walked out the door with his notebook.

"How is it?"

Seeing Captain Zhang come out, Director Lu, who had been waiting to the side, asked quickly.

"It's all here, but I don't think it has much value. What he said is no different from what our surveillance footage captured," Captain Zhang said, waving the notebook in his hand.

"Then did he admit whether he committed the previous Magician case?" Director Lu continued to ask.

"He admitted it."

"He admitted it? Are you sure?"

"Sure. Besides, even if he didn't admit it, it would be useless. This time the surveillance captured it clearly; he can't explain it away. It's ironclad evidence," Captain Zhang said with a grin.

"How do you think we should handle this person?" Director Lu stroked his chin and pondered.

"What else can we do? Follow the rules," Captain Zhang shrugged, saying somewhat helplessly, "We saw the video clearly; it was self-defense.

Besides, this person is a serial killer. If nothing goes wrong, he'll even be able to receive a one-million reward."

The reason it could be as high as one million actually depends on the location. In a place like Shenzhen, especially in Nanshan where every inch of land is worth gold, it is normal to offer such a high bounty for a serial killer.

"Also, he can be credited for the previous two cases; it counts as a righteous act. Among them, Zhou Kehua was a fugitive for many years. The local bounty for him was only fifty thousand, but we can chip in a bit here.

As for that Auntie Mei, the reward is one hundred thousand. This kid has really hit the jackpot. However, for a capable person like him to make money, hehe, I'm not jealous."

Captain Zhang smiled, his tone quite relaxed. After all, this murderer had really kicked an iron plate.

Who could have imagined that such a tough character would be killed by this young man in the blink of an eye?

"Then, what do you think of his personality? You've studied psychological profiling, so your analysis should be sound." Director Lu's gaze fell on the other man again.

"File a record. Not only does this person need to be registered, but a separate file also needs to be created for him. He knows martial arts and can carry playing cards capable of killing people.

And his martial arts are no ordinary feat; he learned the kind of killing techniques. This Jiang Wenqiang was a tough guy, right? He was beaten to death by him within three minutes!

Not to mention ordinary people, even if several people besieged him, I think the ones who would most likely die would be the others."

Captain Zhang rubbed his brow. For people like this, he also found it quite a headache; handling them was the most troublesome.

It's just like some teenage hackers, brats who hack into the police network to show off, but they are young, and you can't really do anything to them.

Now, Captain Zhang had the same feeling. The other party didn't initiate the killing, didn't harm anyone, and even acted righteously.

"A record must be filed, but this kind of person can also be considered talent."

Director Lu paused as he spoke, one hand across his chest, the other supporting his chin, his brows furrowed, clearly deep in thought.

"Forget it, let's leave it at that for now. Later, find some personnel to provide him with ideological guidance and strengthen his ideological foundation. We must not let him become like that Jiang Wenqiang."

After Jiang Wenqiang died, his appearance was searched by the police department, and his exact identity was quickly matched.

What shocked everyone was that after the comparison, this person's file was actually in the household registration archives for the deceased, which meant he had been a dead person for a long time.

But how could a dead person still do such things? It couldn't be the resurrection of the dead, could it?

Regarding the story behind Jiang Wenqiang, although the bureau hadn't investigated it clearly yet, through the strangeness of the file, they could guess a thing or two.

After all, to have such an extreme personality, it wouldn't make sense if he hadn't experienced a major tragedy.

Soon, after just a simple interrogation, Li Changsheng was sent directly to the hospital—uh, it was Nanshan Hospital again.

If Li Changsheng had a choice, he certainly wouldn't have come here, but he had already fainted from the pain.

——

"Director Lu, why don't you go back first? I can keep watch here."

Captain Zhang looked at Director Lu, who showed signs of fatigue, and smiled.

With such a big case solved, actually, not to mention Director Lu, even he, the captain of the criminal police team, had a ton of things to do. Logically, such matters didn't require them to watch over, but considering the special nature of Li Changsheng, they wouldn't be at ease if they didn't.

"It's fine, I'll wait until the doctor comes to ask about the situation before leaving."

"By the way, Director Lu, what about the reporters downstairs? This kind of major event can't be hidden. Moreover, the city government recently gave feedback that the latest resident satisfaction survey is not optimistic."

Captain Zhang kept rubbing his trouser pocket. Clearly, while speaking, he couldn't help but want to smoke, but considering this was a hospital, he restrained himself again and again.

"Hehe, let's skip the interviews. The person is still lying in the hospital. Instead, we can release that video along with an announcement; that should count as an explanation."

Director Lu smiled and said. The city had been demanding they solve the case. Although they didn't catch the person themselves, it was finally over.

They just needed to do some final cleanup work to close the case.

Regarding this, they had been under a lot of pressure lately, and the city needed an explanation.

"Hehe, if you want to smoke, go outside and smoke. I'm watching here, it's the same."

"It's fine, I'll endure it a bit longer."

Just then, a doctor in a white coat walked over from not far away, holding a document bag in his hand.

"Doctor, how is Mr. Li's condition? Is it serious?"

The stout, middle-aged doctor looked complex, looked at the two, and sighed: "Two officers, things are a bit complicated. Please come with me."

Office of the Chief of Surgery ——

"Director Guo, are you saying that Li Changsheng came here for an examination a few months ago? And it was cancer?" Director Lu took a deep breath, somewhat incredulous.

"Yes, it was Director Wang who was in charge at the time. He had already made a judgment: there was actually not much chance of treatment. It was late-stage cancer. Conservative treatment would only allow him to live for a year, but it might also accelerate death.

So at that time, we did not recommend hospitalization." Director Guo pushed up his black-rimmed glasses and pointed to another hanging liver X-ray image.

Just listening to this, Director Lu and Captain Zhang were both somewhat shocked.

They had thought they had enough understanding of this Mr. Li, but now they realized that this understanding was far from enough.

A terminal patient, a patient with late-stage cancer, and he just beat a serial killer who had practiced martial arts for many years to death with his bare hands?

"Is this something a terminal patient can do?!"
