123: A guide to the murder of a gold digger, Jiang Qianyu's dilemma and help

“Transfer company shares, arrange for posthumous affairs!”

Gao Ze’s heart stirred, and he had to admit that Han Minghan’s deduction was quite reasonable.

The abnormal suspicious points he raised greatly increased Chen Zhending’s suspicion as the murderer of Yu Meichan.

Moreover, the news of Yu Meichan’s pregnancy also increased Chen Zhending’s motive for murder.

The two were likely in a sugar daddy-sugar baby relationship, and a simple one rarely involves a crime of passion, especially for a rich man like Chen Zhending, who is not short on money at all.

But if Yu Meichan were pregnant, it would change the nature of this relationship, and might even lead Yu Meichan to have many unrealistic fantasies, which could then cause Chen Zhending to kill her in a fit of rage.

Most importantly, Chen Zhending was right beside Han Minghan, remaining silent, not uttering a sound.

“However…”

Han Minghan smiled slightly, looking at Gao Ze and saying, “I won’t so easily conclude that Chen Zhending is the murderer of Yu Meichan!”

“Because besides Chen Zhending possibly being the murderer of Yu Meichan, I think Chen Zhending’s son, Chen Xu, also has suspicion of murdering Yu Meichan.”

“Yu Meichan being pregnant with Chen Zhending’s child poses the greatest threat to Chen Xu!”

“Officer Gao, do you think my deduction makes sense? I won’t be easily misled by case clues!”

Gao Ze inwardly agreed with Han Minghan’s deduction; Chen Zhending’s son, Chen Xu, indeed could not be ruled out as a suspect.

However, at this moment, the rich businessman Chen Zhending’s face slightly changed, breaking his silence, and he said:

“Captain Han, you don’t need to suspect my son!”

“I killed Yu Meichan, I admit it!”

“To be honest, I didn’t expect you to find me so quickly. As expected, justice has a long arm and lets nothing escape!”

“Mr. Chen, you’ve admitted it?”

Han Minghan’s expression showed surprise at Chen Zhending’s confession, but he didn’t easily believe it, narrowing his eyes and asking, “Why are you admitting it? Is it because I mentioned your son?”

“Of course not, Yu Meichan was killed by me, and it has nothing to do with anyone else!”

Chen Zhending’s face showed regret and remorse, as he shook his head and said, “I just don’t want to involve my son and affect him!”

“Mr. Chen, since you’ve confessed to killing Yu Meichan, can you tell us about your relationship with Yu Meichan?”

Gao Ze felt that there were many suspicious points about Chen Zhending, and it was highly likely that he was not the murderer, so he asked, “And what was your motive for killing her?”

“You all want to know, so I’ll tell you everything!”

Chen Zhending sighed and said, “My relationship with Yu Meichan, as you guessed, was that of a sugar daddy and sugar baby.

But I liked Yu Meichan very much because she looked a lot like my wife, who passed away more than ten years ago.”

“Yu Meichan and I met during a National Day event at New World Shopping Mall in Donghai City. At that time, she was working part-time at a milk tea shop. I was very shocked by her appearance, so I had the idea to pursue her, sending her luxury goods, handbags, famous watches, luxury cars, and even a property in Donghai City.”

“Later, Yu Meichan was moved by me and came to live with me in that resettlement apartment in Guangming Resettlement Community!”

“That resettlement apartment was the house my wife and I rented when we first came to Donghai City to work hard. After I became successful in business, I rented that resettlement apartment.”

Gao Ze and Han Minghan listened quietly, both feeling confused at this moment.

If Yu Meichan looked very much like Chen Zhending’s late wife, then logically, he shouldn’t have easily harbored murderous intentions.

“Officers, are you curious why I would kill Yu Meichan?!”

Chen Zhending gave a bitter smile and said, “Although Yu Meichan looked a lot like my late wife, her temperament was far worse than my wife’s; they were simply worlds apart, two girls from different worlds!”

“Yu Meichan was vain and loved money too much. I don’t know if she was influenced by the current online gold-digger mentality; she wanted to get everything from me, and she would stop at nothing.”

“For example, I repeatedly told her I didn’t want children, but Yu Meichan still broke our agreement by not taking her medicine on time, which led to her pregnancy!”

“Moreover, I also investigated and found that besides me, Yu Meichan was also stringing along two rich second-generation boyfriends at school. She even had several phone numbers and WeChat accounts!”

“Killing Yu Meichan was an accidental death in a fit of rage after learning all of this!”

“How was it an accident?” Gao Ze asked directly, “What was the specific process of you killing Yu Meichan?”

“The murder process?”

Chen Zhending shook his head, recalling:

“That day, after I accidentally discovered the fact that Yu Meichan had other boyfriends, I took her into Guangming Resettlement Community wanting to confront her, to make her behave herself in the future and cut off contact with other young men.”

“But I didn’t expect Yu Meichan to confront me instead!”

“She said she was already pregnant and proposed three conditions to me: either agree to marry her without a prenuptial agreement, or give her a child support payment of 200 million, or let the child she gave birth to have inheritance rights to Hengli Group.”

Gao Ze and Han Minghan looked at each other.

Yu Meichan truly dared to ask, demanding 200 million in child support at the drop of a hat.

“Officers, do you think I would agree to Yu Meichan’s demands?”

A cold smile appeared on Chen Zhending’s lips, and he said, “I, Chen, have worked hard for over thirty years. I may not be a tycoon or a giant, but I am a man of my word, someone who means what he says!”

“At that time, I was very angry, and I had drunk a lot of alcohol. Under the stimulation of alcohol, without even thinking, I grabbed the red wine bottle from the table and smashed Yu Meichan’s head!”

“At that time, Yu Meichan was bleeding from her head after I hit her and lay on the ground. I didn’t take it seriously and fell asleep. Only after I sobered up a bit did I realize that Yu Meichan had stopped breathing!”

“At that time, I panicked. After simply cleaning up the traces of myself in the room, I put Yu Meichan into a travel suitcase and disposed of her body!”

“Mr. Chen, how did you grab the wine bottle and strike Yu Meichan’s head?”

Chen Zhending’s body disposal process perfectly matched the surveillance footage from Guangming Resettlement Community, but Gao Ze watched Chen Zhending’s left-hand gestures, smiled inwardly, and felt the problem was becoming interesting, asking, “Mr. Chen, are you left-handed?”

“Yes, what’s wrong? Our family is all left-handed; we’ve been used to using our left hand since childhood.”

“Nothing!”

Gao Ze shook his head, having already determined that Chen Zhending was not the murderer of Yu Meichan.

Even his son, Chen Xu, was not the murderer.

He already had an idea of the murderer’s identity.

“Officer Gao, do you have a different view on the case?”

Han Minghan listened to Gao Ze questioning Chen Zhending, and he already had a guess in his heart.

Gao Ze nodded and said, “You could say that!”

“It’s fine to have a different view!”

Han Minghan did not press Gao Ze for his new perspective, saying confidently:

“I still feel that Chen Zhending is not as simple as being the murderer; his son Chen Xu is more likely. I will follow my method to find the murderer in the Yu Meichan case!”

“When I solve the case, I will credit Officer Gao with a meritorious deed!”

Gao Ze’s expression was calm, not wanting to respond, but Chen Zhending reacted extremely strongly, his facial muscles twitching, and he roared in anger:

“I’ve already confessed, what else do you need to investigate my son Chen Xu for?”

“My son Chen Xu has nothing to do with Yu Meichan’s death. I killed Yu Meichan and disposed of her body. I’ve already admitted it, don’t go affect my son!”

Seeing Chen Zhending’s intense reaction, Han Minghan grew even more suspicious, instructing the Police Officer to take him away, and then planned to bring Chen Xu to the police station for questioning and investigation as well.

Gao Ze did not stop him, nor did he have the authority to stop him.

Han Minghan is the Captain of Jinghai District Criminal Investigation Brigade and has the authority to deploy and dispatch criminal police within his jurisdiction. He just felt a sense of regret inwardly.

If Chen Zhending and his son Chen Xu were later proven not to be the murderers in the Yu Meichan case, Han Minghan would likely face retaliation from the two wealthy father and son, and the Municipal Bureau would also lose its sympathy for him regarding the bank robbery case.

Now Gao Ze could only wait.

Waiting for the chemical analysis report of the cashmere fabric stained with red wine.

If the Forensic Appraisal Center’s report came out, he could overturn Han Minghan’s deduction and catch the murderer red-handed.

“Let’s go, Doctor Lu!”

Gao Ze led Lu Ling out of the wealthy businessman Chen Zhending’s Hengli Group.

“Where are we going? Aren’t we continuing to investigate the murderer in the Yu Meichan case?”

Lu Ling asked curiously, “I still want to know who the murderer in this case is and what happens next?”

“No need to investigate, I already know the murderer in the Yu Meichan case!”

“Now let’s go back to the City First People’s Hospital!”

“Ah, the murderer in the Yu Meichan case has already been found? Officer Gao, how did you investigate?”

Lu Ling’s face was full of confusion as she pressed, “Who is the murderer of Yu Meichan?”

“The case…” Gao Ze was about to respond when his phone suddenly rang. The caller ID showed Jiang Qianyu calling.

“Jiang Qianyu is calling me, could she be asking for help?”

Gao Ze naturally knew the predicament Jiang Qianyu was facing now; her elder brother was about to usurp power from their father Jiang Wenhao, and she too would be eliminated.
