Chapter 209: Chen Junjun’s Alibi!

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“I really don’t have evidence that you did it.”

“But Chen Canjun.”

“Can you produce an alibi?”

Under Chen Canjun’s puzzled gaze, Su Xuan said indifferently.

At this moment, he was like an evil person who refused to let go.

After understanding his thoughts, Chen Canjun gritted his teeth.

“Officer, you’re wrong.”

“I have no reason to kill my brother, right?”

“Besides, I don’t have time to kill anyone. I was at home during the time you mentioned. I didn’t touch anything.”

“You can’t slander me just because you can’t find the murderer.”

Chen Canjun was even prepared to complain about Su Xuan.

In Chen Canjun’s opinion, he did not do anything, but he was slandered by Su Xuan as a suspect of murder.

This was an insult!

Su Xuan had no right to do that!

“If it weren’t for concrete evidence, I wouldn’t make this statement,” Su Xuan finally said, noticing that Chen Canjun was getting agitated. He reached into his bag and retrieved a document – a screenshot he had saved from the surveillance footage.

“On the evening three days ago at 9:10 PM, you were wearing tight clothing and left the house,” Su Xuan began. “Or should I say, you climbed out of a window. You didn’t return until over an hour later. Please answer, where did you go during this hour? What did you do? Were there any witnesses or evidence?”

As Su Xuan placed the photo in front of Chen Canjun, the latter’s face turned dark. He clearly hadn’t expected that his secret escape would be discovered.

“What is this? I can’t understand it,” Chen Canjun retorted. “Officer, you can’t just show me a random photo and expect me to confess. Do you think I don’t know if I left the house or not? If you want me to admit to something I didn’t do, it’s not happening!”

Even at this point, Chen Canjun didn’t believe that Su Xuan’s team had any substantial evidence. He considered the photo to be a fabrication, especially since the surrounding surveillance cameras were supposedly broken.

However, as the saying goes, “If you don’t want anyone to know, don’t do it.” Every action leaves traces, and if someone wants to investigate, they will find those traces. Especially when it’s a police investigation.

“I understand, Mr. Chen, that you may think your house’s nearby cameras were all malfunctioning, unable to capture your movements,” Su Xuan continued. “Do you believe this photo was concocted by me to deceive you?”

As Su Xuan’s words settled, Chen Canjun immediately looked up, his expression implying, “Isn’t it?”

“Unfortunately,” Su Xuan responded calmly, “the surveillance cameras around your house were indeed not working. When you moved around, you were in areas that couldn’t be captured by surveillance. As a result, not only the cameras around your house but also cameras elsewhere didn’t record your presence.”

“We cannot determine from surveillance whether you actually left the house.”

“But…”

As he spoke, Su Xuan pointed at the photo before him.

“The window opposite your house is really clean.”

“Especially the house right next to yours, which is perfectly clean and well-lit,” Su Xuan remarked. He pushed the photo forward.

Upon hearing Su Xuan’s first sentence, Chen Canjun’s face changed. However, he was now utterly astonished as he looked at the paper Su Xuan had handed over. He hadn’t paid close attention before, so he hadn’t noticed that the location in the photo wasn’t their house but a reflection in a window – a reflection of him climbing out of a window.

This photo…

Considering the size of the house and the fact that it had captured only this small part, capturing a reflection of their home through the window required significant effort. If this police officer could notice and achieve even this… Then he truly had underestimated them.

“No matter how well you plan, you didn’t account for this,” Chen Canjun sighed, admitting this fact. “I’ve checked several places before, but I couldn’t find a spot where my figure could be seen.”

“I was just sneaking out for some private time, so I didn’t want my wife to find out. But, Officer, if you’re accusing me of murder…”

He paused, refusing to acknowledge that part of the accusation.

“Officer, surely you won’t arrest me for sneaking out to look at beautiful women, will you?” Chen Canjun raised his head, locking eyes with Su Xuan. “This should be beyond your jurisdiction, right?”

The evidence was indeed insufficient. Since Chen Canjun had only this one revealed point and had admitted to leaving the house, it wasn’t enough to directly accuse him of murdering Chen Jianguo.

Moreover, Chen Canjun had provided an alibi for his whereabouts when he left the house. When Su Xuan discovered his departure, Chen Canjun had come clean with the authorities.

It turned out there was a park not far from their house.

It used to be a place where a group of old women danced, but for some reason, many young girls had entered the area of square dancing recently.

“They’re young and beautiful, and they have good figures.”

“Only wearing so little to dance in the middle of the night.”

“Isn’t this seducing people?”

“Besides, there are so many old ladies around. They deliberately jumped around in the crowd of old ladies. Didn’t they want stand out among these old ladies?”

“Anyway, it’s for people to see. What’s wrong with me going to take a look?”

” At that time, I was by the tree on their right. However, I would be discovered if I stayed in one place, so I often changed places.”

“If you check the surveillance cameras, you should be able to find me.”

Chen Canjun spoke calmly and explained his whereabouts that night. The police had indeed obtained the surveillance footage from that place.

It could also be seen that he kept changing positions under the surveillance camera, his gaze falling on the few girls who were dancing.

It could be said that this was a perfect alibi.

Since he was already here, it was naturally impossible for him to kill anyone. He did not have the time.

“Alright, Su Xuan.”

“It’s indeed wrong for Chen Canjun to see other girls during his marriage.”

“But this is not something we should be involved in now.”

“This video is enough to prove that Chen Canjun has nothing to do with Chen Jianguo’s death.”

“Shouldn’t you change the suspect?”

Zhou Qiang saw that Su Xuan was still staring at Chen Junjun’s surveillance video and immediately said.

As for the person, he had already been released.

“That’s not right.”

The more Su Xuan looked at it, the stranger he felt.

“Something’s still not right..”
