Chapter 11 Are You the Murderer?

After fishing up two corpses, Lin Wendong was also uncertain whether there were any more bodies in the reservoir.

The subsequent arrangements had the salvage team's divers descend to the bottom to search.

If this really was a case of serial killings, then it was very likely there would be a third body.

After getting their gear on, the divers plunged into the water, searching for traces of bodies in the reservoir.

The main search area was near where the two bodies had been fished up.

The two corpses were not very far from one another.

Tonight was destined to be a sleepless night.

From the moment they fished up the first body, they hadn't stopped, not even having a moment to take a few sips of water.

"Do we have any water?" Lin Wendong was so busy he was parched, feeling as though he could breathe fire from his mouth.

"Captain Lin, we have water over here."

Chen Lin handed over the water she had just gotten from Fang Hao to Lin Wendong.

Lin Wendong twisted off the cap and gulped down the water, quickly finishing over five hundred milliliters of bottled mineral water.

After drinking the water, his condition improved somewhat, then he continued to work.

The second body they had fished up had already been sent back for an autopsy.

Lin Wendong and his team remained on site, directing the salvage team to fish for bodies in the reservoir to see if there was a third body.

Fishing for bodies was likely to take a long time.

He then arranged for Chen Lin to take Fang Hao back for a statement.

By the way, he asked Chen Lin to investigate Fang Hao's background.

After all, Fang Hao could not be completely ruled out of suspicion.

And after fishing up two bodies, Fang Hao was in no mood to continue fishing.

Too damn unlucky.

If it weren't for the live stream, if he went out and said he fished up two bodies in one night, absolutely no one would believe it!

It was ludicrous.

But that was the fact.

It's not just bad luck; it's exceptionally bad.

He didn't catch fish but only fished up corpses.

He could be considered a unique character in the fishing community.

Now, he had to follow Chen Lin back for a statement.

The police prevented Sun Zhaopeng from getting close to the scene.

But when he saw Fang Hao and Chen Lin walking away from the site, his heart leapt with joy.

This was one of his intended interview targets.

"Hello, streamer."

"I'm Sun Zhaopeng, a reporter from Binjiang News. May I interview you?"

He immediately approached.

Reporter? Interview?

Fang Hao was taken aback seeing this spectacle, Sun Zhaopeng.

That was too fast.

He had only fished up the bodies not long ago, and the reporter had already arrived.

Such dedication... really.

What he didn't know was that the other party had watched his live stream and had rushed over after seeing him fish up the bodies.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have arrived so quickly.

"Oh, hello."

Fang Hao glanced at Chen Lin beside him.

Chen Lin understood what he meant, which was basically asking if she would consent to an interview.

"I'm sorry, we are pressed for time and it's not convenient for us to accept interviews."

Chen Lin also tactfully cooperated, extending her hand in front of Sun Zhaopeng.

"Officer, I will only take a little bit of your time, not too long."

Sun Zhaopeng certainly wouldn't give up just like that, such a rare opportunity, if he missed it this time, who knows when the next one would be.

"What are your feelings now after you fished up two bodies consecutively?"

"Do you think there's any connection between the two bodies you fished up, could this be a serial murder case?"

"Did you notice anything particularly unusual when you fished up the bodies?"

"Did you already know there were bodies here and purposely come here to fish?"

"..."

He fired off a string of questions, some of them sharply pointed, even more direct than the questions asked by the police.

Fang Hao found the questioning to be a real headache.

He almost began to doubt if he was the murderer himself.

Fang Hao didn't tangle with them for too long, simply dropping a line "the police will investigate everything clearly," and then he beat a hasty retreat.

Who could stand such an interview?

He felt a bit of sympathy for those who had undergone interviews with Yi Lijin in the entertainment circle before.

Anyone who could go through an entire interview without getting angry was really something.

After getting into Chen Lin's car, Fang Hao wiped his forehead.

"These journalists are truly terrifying."

"Indeed," Chen Lin nodded.

Although she was still a rookie, she had witnessed a few press interviews—truly a horror to behold.

"So, are there any chicken drumstick lunch boxes when we go back to give statements?"

"..."

Fortunately, Chen Lin was in a better state this time, gradually getting accustomed to it and didn't feel like throwing up anymore.

Just that her complexion was still a bit off.

"Didn't you have instant noodles earlier?"

"That was ages ago."

"It's all digested by now."

"Fine! I'll order you takeout when we get back."

Eat, eat, eat, I hope you gorge yourself to death.

Chen Lin gritted her teeth as she cursed the guy silently in her heart.

While Fang Hao was going back with Chen Lin to make a statement.

...

On Weibo,

Another new topic emerged.

[Fishing streamer catches two corpses in a second lucky strike!]

This topic was climbing swiftly, shooting up into the top fifty in no time, and it was still rising.

As an incidental effect, the popularity of the previous topics also increased considerably.

With the frenzy surrounding this new topic, many paid attention.

"What's going on? Another corpse fished up?"

"Is today corpse congregation day or what?"

"One after another, they're not catching fish but only snagging corpses."

"Bro, it seems like the guy who fished up the corpses is the same fishing streamer."

"Pfft, you're kidding, right? The same person caught both corpses? This guy is so unlucky."

"The unluckiest part is it happened on the same evening."

"Wait a minute, I remember this guy just fished up a corpse a few hours ago, then after recording his statement, he went back to fishing?"

"Yep, that's him!"

"So he went back to fishing and then caught another corpse?"

"This is nuts..."

"With this luck... I bet he could win the lottery."

People were stunned upon discovering the topic on Weibo and delving deeper into the story.

This luck was against the odds.

Such an experience, truly unparalleled—neither seen in the past nor likely in the future.

Catching two corpses in one evening—whose story could top that?

More and more people started paying attention.

The heat of the topic had already soared into the top thirty.

"I was there live in the streaming room, and let me tell you, the thrill of the scene was palpable."

"Craziness on the scene."

But there's no denying, the momentum of this topic was incredibly fierce.

In such a short time, it rose to the top thirty.

And the heat was still surging.

Breaking into the top ten was merely a matter of time.

"Another corpse fished up, does that mean it's a murder case?"

"It's probably not a suicide."

"Especially the second corpse, it was inside a bag. Could someone committing suicide put themselves in a bag?"

"Could these two corpses belong to the same case?"
