Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

In the dim interrogation room, Han Kuan sat in the interrogation chair with no emotion on his face. He gave no argument, and he seemed completely apathetic. It was as if the whole world had nothing to do with him.

“It seems that this is the real you!” Zhao Yu said as he sat in a chair then turned to position himself face to face with Han Kuan. “I remember when I first met you, you talked a lot! It seems that’s what you prepared for me particularly, right?”

Han Kuan looked at Zhao Yu coldly, and after several seconds of silence, he said softly, “Officer Zhao, I don’t understand. What do you mean?”

“Ha ha ha ha...” When Zhao Yu saw Han Kuan start to talk, he could not help but laugh loudly. Then, he said with eyes that were filled with vibrant energy, “Rocca... Um... No... It’s Locard’s exchange principle... Yes! This law says that as long as a criminal has committed a crime, there must be something left at the scene!”

He then asked with a crooked smile, “Han Kuan, including Laogua at Yaoming, you killed at least 10 people. With that many crime scenes, how much evidence do you suppose you left behind?”

Han Kuan looked at Zhao Yu silently. After Zhao Yu finished speaking, he thought about his for a long time before he answered, “Officer Zhao! Although Locard invented this exchange principle, he never tested it during a case.”

Han Kuan then added in a cold voice, “Also, in the annotation of the law, there is a clear explanation that says, ‘Despite the exchange at the crime scene, with the passage of time, the evidence left behind will gradually disappear until finally, there will be no valid evidence left!'”

Hearing this, although Zhao Yu tried to keep calm, his eyes still couldn’t help but twitch slightly. Han Kuan had spoken in a calm tone, but his words were full of threatening provocation!

Zhao Yu applauded the man in his heart and said, “What a great crime fiction writer! You read the book so carefully! Are you an enchanted being?”

Zhao Yu was pressing him, trying to ruffle his feathers.

“Super Detective Zhao, the ancient saint says that nothing short of obsession will bring you success on the stage!” Han Kuan’s eyes glowed with an evil light, and his voice became hoarse and indifferent as he said, “But, I am ashamed that my novel has never gained mass popularity. I intended to become a devil, but I was never qualified! So, you are better than me on this point!”

Zhao Yu raised his thumb and said, “Brilliant! So, it appears that I’m not a fool to have trusted a murderer that easily. By gosh, you sure got me at the beginning! I just thought that you were a smart writer when I met you. But, I see now, you are really about to become a devil!”

Zhao Yu was quite clear on the situation now. What Han Kuan had just said had confirmed his suspicions about him. Zhao Yu no longer had any doubts about who the real Han Kuan was!

Zhao Yu could also tell from Han Kuan’s words that his patience seemed to have come to an end because he was speaking with provocative emotion. This was exactly what Zhao Yu had hoped to see.

Zhao Yu stretched out his hands and said, “Now that we have greeted each other, let’s get to the point. My colleague has been interrogating you for a long time, so I’m not going to repeat the same boring questions again. I think you’re smart enough to be able to feel my sincerity in having come to interrogate you in person.”

After hearing this, Han Kuan asked Zhao Yu in an unusually calm tone, “Really? So, what’s so sincere about beating up my lawyer? I think that you’re going to get into trouble for that! Attacking a lawyer is taboo!”

“Well, that’s my business! You don’t have to worry about it!” Zhao Yu smiled and said. “You’d better think about yourself now. How do you think the real murderer of the Devil Case will end his life? Will it be a blow to the head blow or a lethal injection?”

Hearing this, Han Kuan did not respond, and his face looked stiff again.

“Ha ha ha ha...” Zhao Yu laughed, then finally got to the point, saying, “On December 26, 15 years ago, when you left Beiqian, in the early morning of the day, there was a car accident outside an unfinished construction site in Jiangxing County. Do you remember that accident?”

Han Kuan did not speak, but raised his eyebrows and shivered violently. Zhao Yu smiled. It seemed that he had found Han Kuan’s weakness!

Zhao Yu continued, “So, tell me, did you have anything to do with the accident?”

Han Kuan still did not speak, but Zhao Yu could see that he was thinking about what countermeasures he could take at this moment.

Zhao Yu smiled and asked sarcastically, “Are you thinking about devising a cunning strategy? Are you wondering whether it’s better to admit it or not? If you admit it, you’re afraid of exposing more secrets, but if you do not, you’re afraid that I will have solid evidence to prove you are a liar, right?”

Han Kuan still did not speak, but sweat could be seen slightly oozing out of his forehead.

“Ha ha ha ha...” Zhao Yu looked up to the ceiling and laughed. “This time, was it different from killing your wife Zhang Jingru and framing the teacher Lang Xiangyang?”

“I... I can’t remember...” Han Kuan hesitated for a long time before finally uttering an ambiguous statement.

“Fuc*!” Zhao Yu scolded him, “You are as shameless as me! Okay... Let me give you a hint. Do you remember Liu Yubao? On the morning of December 26, you wanted to kill him, but unfortunately, when you took him up to the 6th floor, you were seen by someone! And... That witness... Is this man!”

Then, Zhao Yu opened his cell phone and showed Han Kuan a picture of a middle-aged man before continuing, “This man not only saw you, but he had a fight with you! A fierce fight! In the end, he realized that he might lose to you, so he ran away! You were afraid that he’d expose your demonic crime, so you ran after him. Unexpectedly, that man just ran out of the construction site and was killed when he was hit by a speeding truck! So... Now... Can you think of anything else to say?”

“No... No...” Han Kuan finally seemed panicked.

He thought carefully, then said, “Absolutely not... I have never been to Jiangxing County at all. So, whatever you just said about Liu Yubao, the construction site, and the car accident has nothing to do with me!”

Zhao Yu clenched his fist and shouted excitedly, “Great writer! I got you! I was waiting for you to say that!”

Zhao Yu then snapped his fingers and said, “Hum, there is no perfect crime, which is the best lesson for you to learn! Han Kuan, in all these many years, have you ever thought about why the man would hide in the construction site and inadvertently undermine your murderous plan?”

Han Kuan did not speak, but his face turned pale.

Zhao Yu then said, “Let me tell you... The man is also a criminal! He was hiding in the construction site and just happened to bump into you! Isn’t that some crazy karma?”

Zhao Yu burst out laughing, picked up his mobile phone, and said to Han Kuan, “Let me tell you one more thing... Just because he was also involved in a case, after he was hit by the truck, the police kept all of his belongings in the Evidence Department. They are still there!”

Then, he showed Han Kuan the pictures on his mobile phone and asked him, “Look carefully at these clothes... Are you familiar with them?’

After seeing the evidence in the photo, Han Kuan’s eyes completely changed. His hands kept trembling, revealing unprecedented nervousness.

“Don’t get too excited, as it’s not over yet!” Zhao Yu said. “Look, there is also dandruff, hair follicles, and... Look! All of the evidence is here! Next, it’s time for witnessing the miracle! After we took these things to the emergency lab in the Beiqian Police Station and ran the DNA tests, guess who was the perfect match?”

Zhao Yu slammed his fist down on the table and shouted, “Han Kuan! It was you! You never could know that after 15 years, we would still be able to find the crucial evidence needed to lock you up! Let me be straight with you... The skin tissue and hair samples are identical to yours! So, what else can you say for yourself this time? You are clearly the real culprit of the Devil Case!”

Han Kuan was trembling, and he had curled his body up into a fetal position at this time. He was a smart man, and he knew that Zhao Yu’s evidence was not forged. After all, without possessing definitive evidence, Zhao Yu could not have known the specific details of that accident that year!

Suddenly, Han Kuan gritted his teeth and clenched his fists so hard that he seemed like he would explode at any time! At that moment, Zhao Yu thought that he was going to confess, but unexpectedly, after his emotions had reached their peak, Han Kuan suddenly laughed out loud!

Zhao Yu looked up and was baffled when he saw Han Kuan laughing in such a weird and thrilling way. Han Kuan seemed to have suddenly gone mad. He was laughing and staring up to heaven, and even sticking out his tongue!

“Ha ha ha ha ha...” After laughing for a long time, Han Kuan blushed and said to Zhao Yu, “Detective Zhao! You finally caught me! Okay... I admit it... I lied! On December 26, I did go to Jiangxing County, and maybe I even saw the man who was hit by a truck!”

Han Kuan then said, “But, it wasn’t late at night. It was just starting to get dark! I was driving and had just passed the district. Suddenly, I lost my way, so I got out of the car and wanted to ask for directions. But, that man was very rude to me. I didn’t say much to him, and he swore at me. Then, we fought. It was a really fierce fight! In the end, he knew that he was unable to beat me, as I was young and strong, so he ran away!”

Han Kuan rubbed his palm, then stared at Zhao Yu and said, “Now, think of the man I fought with... He might possibly be the same man who you said was killed by the truck. So, wouldn’t it make sense for him to have my DNA on his clothes?”

Han Kuan then added with an innocent look, “I don’t understand why you always associate this case with me! Why do you insist that the Devil Case has anything to do with me?”
