Chapter6: Hook, line and sinker.

01:00AM everything is covered by night. In the dim light of the street lights, a shadow appeared. It moved quickly through the blocks. Moments later it arrived under a luxury apartment building. In the middle of the quiet night, while everyone was sleeping soundly, the shadow wriggled through the apartment gate without anyone noticing.

It continued to move along the fire exit of the building and then went up to the 7th floor in a hurry. In the quiet rhythm of the night, only the gasp of a man mingled with the darkness. In front of his eyes was a room strewn with police cordoned off lines. He smiled and stepped inside, gently pulling out a watch from his pocket. He went to the corner of the room and placed it on the floor. In the middle of the cold, dark room, suddenly, a bright light appeared out of nowhere, making him blind for a moment. It took him a while to get used to the light. He saw standing in the corner of the room was a young man, holding a flashlight in his hand. The young man smiled at him. At this point, he was extremely panicked. He looked around and grabbed a paper knife on the table. He rushed towards the other guy like an arrow. Immediately behind him came a cold voice: "John, you have been arrested for intentional murder." The voice was like a knife stabbing him in the heart. It destroyed everything, the perfect plan he worked so hard to build. He let go of his hand, and the knife fell to the floor.

John turned his head to look at the two policemen behind him with a painful smile. They approached and handcuffed him. However, he was still laughing and suddenly his laughter grew louder. He shouted: “Why? Why? My plan is so perfect, how did you guys find out?” There was no reply, he just felt his wrist aching. He was led out of the room and taken to a police car. The door closed and the howl of a car horn tore the night.

Looking after the car, Leonardwalked over to pat Albert on the shoulder and said: "How do you know he is the killer?" Seeing that Albert didn't say anything, he was looking up at the sky with sad eyes. Captain Stan: "Let's go, we won't be able to sleep tonight." The car quickly left the scene of the crime. In the interrogation room, John remained silent no matter how many questions the policeman asked. The interrogating policeman was at a stalemate when he saw from afar that Captain Huang, Leonardand Albert were coming. He happily ran over and said: “Thank goodness, you're here, captain. No matter how I asked him, he wouldn't say a word." Hearing that, Stan stepped inside. Seeing that the person coming was the captain of the city A police department, John showed a cold smile: "Captain Stan congratulates you on catching the culprit of the case. Now you can release the girl, she has nothing to do with this case.”

Stan looked at John for a moment, and then said: "So, John, you admit the crime?" John laughed out loud: “Hahaha! Does it matter if I accept me or not? Having been arrested by you guys, what else is there to say?" Stan narrowed his eyes at John and said, "Why did you kill him?" Hearing that, John shouted: “Why? Why did I kill him? He stole her from me. She is everything to me”. Suddenly a voice outside interrupted: "Do you know why we suspect you're the killer?" John turned his head to look at the door of the interrogation room. Albert stepped inside and continued: "The blood stain that I discovered on the 5th floor of the emergency exit was not actually a female watch. If you look closely, you will notice that in the middle of the blood stain there is a trace of the letter R, which is only on Rolex watches." John: "But there are many people wearing watches, how do you know it's mine, and why did you arrest her? What does she have to do with this?" Albert smiled and said: "It is true that you are very cautious, your plan is also perfect, but there is one fatal point that makes your plan fail." "John: "What is it?" Albert replied: "Because you have been clouded by hatred. Instead of one knife to finish the victim, he continued to stab many more knives. You must have been unable to control your actions at that time.” John smiled bitterly and said: "That's why you suspected me, when you investigated, you must have known that I secretly loved her, right? That's why you guys arrested her and spread the news that they were looking for evidence to be a woman's watch in order to use my love for her to trap me.

Albert replied: "That's right! It is true that I relied on those clues to be able to set up this trap, but you missed one thing.” John shouted: “How dare you use an innocent girl to trap me? Did you get her permission to do that? Aren't you afraid she'll sue you for slander and illegal arrest?" Just like John said, not to mention that she is a suspect in the case, when there is no evidence or witness, the police cannot arrest anyone. Albert: "Innocent? How could someone as careful as you leave a trace at the scene? That means you have an accomplice. Or i could say: at that time you had a conflict with that person, right?" John trembled, he shouted: "No, I am the culprit. You must not blame innocent people." Albert did not reply, he looked at John for a long time and then left.
