Fortunately, after arriving at the conference room, An Ji stopped teasing Li Rong and carefully analyzed the case.

This case was actually not difficult, and even a little too simple. In the case of fixed time and place, as long as the Alpha and Beta in the garden at the time of the crime are found through monitoring, and then the exclusion method can be used in turn to determine.

At present, the police are also using this investigation method to finally determine An Can as a suspect through time, witnesses, and physical evidence.

But because it was too simple, no one even suspects that their judgment was wrong.

However, An Ji was convinced that An Can was wronged. He couldn’t follow the police’s reasoning, so he had to sort out the clues again with Li Rong.

The surveillance showed that An Ning rushed from the banquet hall into the garden after 8:30 pm. About 30 seconds later, Xu Jing’an chased after him, but came out 2 minutes later because she did not encounter An Ning.

The garden was so huge that they got lost in a rose garden and a labyrinth of plants.

And An Ning reappeared in the surveillance. It was 9:10 50 minutes later. The first person to discover was Lang Lun Li, Minister of Education and Science. He said that he found An Ning who fainted while smoking in the garden. He took him to hospital.

In the video, Lang Lun Li looks to be in his early 50s, and his smiling eyes make him look quite easy-going, with the reliability and kindness unique to his father.

An Ji: “When did he go to the garden?”

Li Rong: “8:50.”

An Ji frowned: “Does it take so long to smoke?”

…

“Does it take so long to smoke?” Two hours ago, Yu Zhengruan also asked Lang Lun Li the same question.

“It’s not just smoking,” Lang Lun Li shook his head. “School was about to start recently, and many people are asking me to toast. I drank a little too much. After smoking, I took a walk for a while to get some air.”

“Then you saw the victim?”

“No, I picked up my wife’s phone and chatted for a few minutes. After I finished the call and walked on, I saw the victim.

“In that situation?”

“Yes.”

“Don’t you have any ideas?”

“Can I have any ideas?” Lang Lun Li laughed, “I wouldn’t like anyone other than my wife, not to mention that the child is as young as my son. No matter how mad I am, I won’t do anything to him, let alone in a place like this.”

“Did you think An Ning was dressed a bit strangely?” Li Rong asked suddenly.

“What’s wrong?” Before An Ji could answer, the little policeman on the side opened his mouth.

Li Rong: “He’s wearing a white suit, but his hat and cape are orange. The color and style don’t match. As a noble Omega, he shouldn’t make such an obvious mistake.”

An Ji suddenly realized: “He didn’t wear a cloak when he came, those things belonged to someone else!”

The little policeman stood up immediately: “I’ll go check it out!”

About ten minutes later, the little policeman hurried back, not even breathing. He shouted: “I found it, Song Meng, 21 years old this year, a third-year student of Omega College at Imperial Royal University, approved the orange cloak when he got off the bus at night.”

An Ji stood up: “Go, talk to him. Chat!”

At 5 am, the black car stopped steadily outside the Song family’s mansion.

“The Song family is quite rich.” An Ji couldn’t help sighing while looking at the spacious and imposing mansion in front of him.

Although most of the wealthy areas are rich, there was a difference between the rich and the richest. Ordinary wealthy people may only have a double townhouse, but the rich may have a lakeside castle, and even the stables are larger than the entire suite of ordinary people.

There was no doubt that the Song family where Song Meng belongs was such a rich existence. It was said that several ore stars were discovered during the expansion of the empire, and since then they have embarked on the road to prosperity.

Ten minutes later, An Ji, Li Rong and the little police officer sat in the living room and waited for Song Meng, who was long overdue. He was wearing a soft white nightdress, his black hair was tucked behind his ears, and he exuded a quiet and well-behaved breath.

“I’m sorry, I didn’t dare to keep you waiting for a long time. I came out without makeup.” Song Meng sat down opposite them and said softly.

An Ji, who had not washed his face for a whole day and night: “…”

Li Rong seemed not to notice the straight temperament in him, and went straight in: “Are this hat and cloak yours?”

He nodded: “It’s mine.”

“Can you explain why it appeared on An Can?”

Song Meng glanced at the waiter, who put down the fruit bowl and bowed away. It wasn’t until only the four of them were left in the living room that Song Meng said, “I heard that something bad happened to an Omega last night…”

As if talking about an extremely difficult thing, Song Meng was silent for a while. Only then did he summon the courage to ask, “Is that person An Ning?”

An Ji did not speak.

Song Meng sighed, his pretty face stained with a bit of sadness: “Actually, I met him in the garden.”

“An Ning?”

“Yes, he was already in a very bad state when I met him, so I took off my hat. and a cape to him, then went back to the banquet hall to call someone.”

“Then why didn’t you take him to the hospital?”

“I… I originally thought,” Song Meng lowered his head, his voice choked a bit, “but you know, Omega’s estrus is contagious, and I dare not get too close for fear of being infected by him… I thought… I thought I would come back soon, and he would have no problem. But I didn’t think

Song Meng closed his eyes, and big tears fell. Omega burst into tears, but An Ji and Li Rong didn’t respond, only the little police officer hurriedly handed over a few tissues.

An Ji didn’t seem to see the other party’s tears, and continued to ask: “So when you came back, you found that he had been r*ped?”

“No,” Song Meng shook his head with red eyes, “When I came back, he was gone, sorry… I also I don’t want to…If I knew that this kind of thing would have happened, I would definitely not leave him there alone…” As he spoke, Song Meng’s tears fell again.

It seemed that he couldn’t ask any more, so An Ji stood up: “In this case, I won’t disturb you.”

Song Meng stood up: “I’ll send you…”

“Bang——”

At this moment, the door of the parlour was roughly pushed open from the outside, and a man in a suit pushed the waiter away and rushed in.

Song Meng’s expression changed immediately, and he pulled the man out to go out: “He Guangzong, what are you doing here with me? I’ve already made it clear to you with what I said!”

“I never agreed!” The man grabbing his hand, he said sadly, “Mengmeng, I’m sorry, last night was really just a misunderstanding. I’ve been waiting for you all night, will you give me a chance to explain?”

“I don’t need to explain, we’re over. Now,” Song Meng broke free from the other’s pull, his grief was gone, and his tone was cold, “I’m still entertaining guests, you go out first!”

“Guests?” The man turned his head, his eyes locked on Li Rong, His pupils tightened instantly, and his voice was sharp, “Li Rong? Did you hook up with another Alpha so soon?”

There was a crisp sound of “smack-“, and a clearly visible palm print appeared on the man’s face.

Song Meng shuddered and dropped his palms, saying without a doubt, “Get out of here!” The man wanted to struggle, but the next moment, a group of tall waiters poured into the living room, dragging him out without a word.

The living room was quiet again, and An Ji exchanged glances with Li Rong in embarrassment, never expecting to see a bloody breakup scene.

“I’ll make you laugh,” Song Meng put his broken hair behind his ears with a wry smile on his face, “My ex-boyfriend doesn’t want to break up, he’s been making trouble with me for a long time…”

An Ji did not comment, but said, “Remember to protect yourself when you go out. Take care of yourself.”

Song Meng was stunned, as if he suddenly understood something, and nodded, “Thank you, I understand.”

When they left the Song family, they saw the man named He Guangzong at the door again. The other party’s suit was kneeling at the door, and there was a tendency to be unable to kneel for a long time.

“Good guy, I’m kneeling down here!” The policeman’s eyes lit up with excitement when he saw this kind of bloody drama for the first time.

An Ji frowned, a strange flash suddenly flashed in his heart, but he couldn’t grasp the exact point.

“Sometimes I envy them.” The little police officer suddenly sighed.

An Ji: “What do you envy?”

“You look so good-looking, you can’t even take classes in order to fall in love, how wonderful!” The dusty police officer looked longingly, “If it were me, I would be driving now. I’m going to the police station. If I leave at this time, I’ll be there in 20 minutes. If it’s ten minutes later, I’ll have to be stuck on the road for 2 hours. Are you angry?”

“No traffic jam, I’ve never been in a traffic jam.” Li Rong stuffed an apple into An Ji’s hand, and said softly, “I’m hungry, I’ll take you to dinner later.”

An Ji: “Where did it come from?”

Police officer: “Where? No more traffic jams?”

Li Rong said to An Ji, “It’s in the fruit bowl in the living room.”

An Ji: “…”

Would your prince still do such a thing?

Police officer: “…”

Why do you want to feed him royal dog food in the early morning! And you didn’t answer me one sentence!

Seeing that An Ji had eaten the apple, Li Rong turned his head to look at the police officer and said slowly: “My car has a class A license plate, starting with 00000, and I can take the high-altitude expressway.”

The police officer: “…” Come on, the evil privileged class!
