Chapter 1121: Chapter 554: Sneering? Adverse Effects (Part 2)
"Officer, how did you find out? This is really a bit embarrassing."
The person on the other side seemed a bit embarrassed.
At this point, they were also at a loss for words.
They seemed very awkward.
Luo Fei, however, scoffed.
"People always say that online users have extensive capabilities. This top-ranked supporter deleted his account after discovering Ruan Shaomei’s true identity. Moreover, he never seemed to have video-chatted with Ruan Shaomei."
"But you still managed to uncover his true identity?"
Luo Fei said this earnestly.
His tone was a bit incredulous.
Yet the few present made no comment.
"Officer, although we don’t want to casually reveal others’ privacy."
"But someone did roughly guess who this top supporter is and understood his identity. Based on our speculations, we disguised ourselves as him, wasn’t that just to gain some traffic?"
Upon hearing this news,
Luo Fei exchanged a glance with Chen Zhenglin beside him.
"Director Chen, I’ll leave this to you. I just obtained clues related to this top supporter. Now I’ll just go over to his house and take a look."
Luo Fei said.
Causing Chen Zhenglin to nod.
"Then Mr. Luo, the follow-up investigation on this case is in your hands."
Shortly after,
Luo Fei and Ji Bing arrived at a regular apartment building.
And it was in one of those old apartment buildings without elevators, room 302.
Luo Fei knocked on the door.
"Excuse me, is anyone at home? Police routine check."
"Coming, coming."
Just a moment later,
as someone came to open the door.
Luo Fei saw a kind-faced middle-aged woman.
"Ma’am, I’d like to ask if anyone in your family is fond of watching female streamers or has the experience of tipping them?"
"Female streamers? Tipping? That’s impossible, my husband passed away a few years ago. My son is just in junior high school, and he’s very dedicated to his studies. Every day he comes home and buries himself in homework..."
Just before she finished speaking,
the woman trembled all over.
At this moment,
she realized something was wrong.
Then she went to her son’s bedroom door and knocked.
"Are you in there, son? I’m coming in."
"Oh, come in, Mom. Do we have guests?"
But as the door opened,
her son was blushing, with a drop of sweat on his nose.
Even the air carried a hint of restlessness.
The mother asked sternly.
"Son, where is your phone?"
As she asked, she suddenly saw the glow from the second drawer of her son’s desk.
"No, Mom, let me explain. It’s not what you think."
Perhaps because he saw Luo Fei in a police uniform.
Standing sternly right in front of him.
So the boy was completely flustered.
Crack——
Just a second later,
as the mother opened the drawer,
she suddenly saw it.
In the drawer, on the phone, there was a female streamer making alluring poses.
She wore bunny ears on her head, interacting with enthusiastic viewers.
"Huang Zehua!"
At that moment,
the mother was truly infuriated.
She couldn’t have imagined,
her son, only fourteen or fifteen years old, would watch such things.
And Luo Fei also asked softly.
"Young man, so you are Ruan Shaomei’s top supporter, Shuke’s boss?"
Luo Fei’s question.
Caused the boy to shudder all over.
"No, officer, what are you talking about? I don’t understand. What’s Shuke? I really don’t know."
But although the other party stubbornly denied,
yet his expression of wanting to speak but not daring to clearly betrayed him.
And at the same time,
Luo Fei said seriously.
"Young man, Ruan Shaomei is no longer alive. As the person who tipped her the most, you must have watched her stream the most, right?"
Luo Fei asked, and he already pulled up the transfer records.
This made the mother’s eyes widen almost instantly.
"Officer, you said tips, what tips? I didn’t know anything about it."
Seeing the other person was a bit nervous and surprised.
Luo Fei also explained with some helplessness.
"Ma’am, you might not know yet, but our police investigation showed that your son’s account had been tipping Ruan Shaomei. Since she’s no longer alive, we traced through the account’s IP address and real-name information to find you."
"And if I’m not mistaken, this Huang Youming was your husband, right?"
Just hearing Luo Fei’s question.
The woman was suddenly shocked.
"Yes, Huang Youming was my husband, and he passed away more than a year ago."
"But because of the 300,000 yuan compensation from an accident at work, it was still in his account, so I never canceled his ID card."
"Then that makes sense. Your son’s phone number was likely registered under your husband’s name, right?"
But upon hearing this news,
the woman felt as if she were struck by lightning.
And after checking the chat logs and bank alerts on the phone.
It was roughly estimated that over half of the 300,000 yuan had been spent by her son, mostly on tipping female streamers.
The woman nearly exploded in anger.
"Son, how could you do such a thing, this money was your father’s blood money!"
"Are you crazy?!"
Seeing her body weaken, nearly collapsing.
Ji Bing quickly caught her from behind.
While Huang Zehua in front, said with an uneasy tone.
"I’m sorry, Mom, I didn’t mean to. I just felt good chatting with those people, they always talked pleasantly, hardly criticized me, so I... couldn’t help it, I just bought it."
Seeing Huang Zehua so anxious and uneasy,
Luo Fei gently spoke.
"Young man, aren’t you afraid?"
"With so much money, did you ever think how hard your mom will have to work for years to earn it back?"
Luo Fei’s tone was confused,
his face showing some surprise.
And Huang Zehua numbly nodded.
"Officer, I’m scared too. I know I made a mistake."
"But I just couldn’t help it..."
Almost simultaneously,
Ji Bing had dialed the number of the streaming company.
Upon hearing this news,
the streaming company immediately responded.
"Officer, please don’t worry. We’ll fully cooperate to retrieve any possible funds we can."
"Additionally, we’ll issue a public apology under the livestream tipping management regulations. We sincerely apologize for the trouble caused."
Hearing the swift agreement from the other side,
Luo Fei understood.
This was probably because people in the streaming company were helping behind the scenes.
Otherwise, things might not have proceeded so smoothly.
Almost simultaneously, he said to the middle-aged woman beside him,
"Ma’am, please stay calm. The streaming company has decided to return the money to you, so you don’t need to worry about economic losses. The key now is to investigate the case to quickly uncover the truth and make a better judgment, don’t you agree?"
Luo Fei’s question prompted the woman to nod repeatedly.
"Right, the officer is right!"
Bang!
In the next second, the woman raised her hand and slapped her son.
At the same time, she sternly demanded.
"Huang Zehua, tell me honestly."
"How did you know this woman and do you have a direct connection to her death?"
But seeing the puzzled look on his mother’s face,
full of frustration and gravity,
Huang Zehua hurriedly explained.
"Mom, it’s not what you think. I’m completely unaware of how she got killed. I just spent ten thousand yuan to see what she really looked like."
With some embarrassment, Huang Zehua said.
Luo Fei also said seriously.
"Ma’am, on a Tuesday three months ago, your son should have been at school. Besides, Ruan Shaomei was an adult, while your son is thin. I don’t think he could be a murderer."
