“Hi, Mr. Zhang. I’m sorry to disturb you. These two police officers received a report and are about to do an investigation. They will only talk to you for a few minutes. It will be quick,” explained the staff.

“It’s okay, it’s fine. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me. I’ll definitely cooperate,” I was a little puzzled as I replied politely.

It turned out that around 8:30 PM last night, a girl in her twenties brought her poodle out for a walk. In the end, she was molested by an old man in a deserted area in the district!

However, the lights were too dim at that time and the old man had disguised himself, so the girl couldn’t see his face clearly.

After that, the old man ran away.

Furthermore, it was obvious that he was very familiar with the surroundings of the district. He specialized in picking places with no lights or angles that the surveillance cameras could capture. Soon, he disappeared into the night.

The girl then called the police. That was why the police came to the district today to investigate every household.

Unfortunately, the police couldn’t find any witnesses or photos, and the surveillance cameras only captured a blurry image of the perpetrator. It was quite difficult to find him.

One of the policemen suddenly took out a photo and asked, “May I ask if you recognize the old man in this photo?”

I took the photo and studied it.

It was late at night and the camera’s quality was low. The photo was rather blurry and one could only vaguely make out an old man wearing a cap.

“I’m not sure. I can’t see clearly.” I hesitated before I answered.

“Do you recognize this outfit?” another cop asked me, pointing at the old man’s clothes in the photo.

I shook my head.

It was a pretty ordinary set of casual clothes. It was a dark blue shirt.

‘The two policemen looked a little disappointed. One of them asked, “Can you ask your family members to come out and let us look at them?”

I nodded and summoned my wife, son, father-in-law, and mother-in-law.

I paid attention and immediately noticed that the two police officers were paying close attention to my father-in-law when they saw him. They seemed to be comparing him to the photo.

My father-in-law seemed a little guilty. He pretended to be calm, but there was unease in his eyes.

After discussing it, the two policemen walked away and talked quietly.

I was close to the two policemen and I could hear them talking about things like, “Does he look like that?” and “I think he’s skinnier.”

The two policemen came back after a discussion. One of them said politely, “Mr. Zhang, right? Please come out. I have something to discuss with you.”

I followed the two policemen and the staff member. When we were a few meters away, one of the policemen asked me seriously, “Mr. Zhang, I hope you can answer a question honestly. Don’t hide anything.”

I was puzzled. “Officer, I don’t understand what you mean. I’ve been cooperating with you all this time.”

Another policeman nodded and said, “Yes, we know how cooperative Mr. Zhang is. We want to ask if you were at home between eight and nine last night?”

I nodded. “Yes.”

The first police officer immediately asked, “During this period of time, was your father-in-law at home or outside?”

Indeed, they were suspicious about my father-in-law!

At this time, I vaguely remembered that my father-in-law went out and wasn’t at home.

Did my father-in-law do something illegal last night?

My mind whirled. “I remember he was at home. He was watching TV in the living room.”

The two policemen frowned and didn’t say anything. After thanking me, they left with the staff.

I watched as they went to our next-door neighbor before I turned around and headed home.

The moment I entered, the entire family gathered around me.

I said, “They asked me if Father was home between eight and nine last night.”

His father-in-law replied in shock, “What did you say?”

“Of course, I said you were at home!” I laughed.

My father-in-law laughed and patted my shoulder. “Good son-in-law, you’re finally useful.”

I sneered. There was definitely something fishy about this matter. I would definitely investigate it.

The next day, I took a day off. When there was no one at home, I went to my parents-in-law’s bedroom. I put on gloves and rummaged around..
