Chapter 645 - 589: Excellent
Jiang Yuan and his team were fully prepared for the latest developments, seriously dividing into several squads to follow the leads of Zhang Haobin’s several ex-girlfriends and investigating them separately.
As it turned out, there was no need.
If the Zhang Family’s heads, such as Zhang Xiulan, still had a sense of counter-surveillance, the 20-year-old Zhang Haobin, once the fearless scion of Litang Township’s Zhang Family, was arrogant to the point of wanting everyone to know how awesome he was. He never hid his activities, especially not when it came to having beautiful girlfriends. For Zhang Haobin to set his social media profile to "semi-public" for six months was already a display of respect for his current girlfriend.
As his several mobile phone numbers were exposed, almost all of Zhang Haobin’s movements and timelines could be found on various social media platforms. Text and photos, sometimes videos, were available without the need for police to toil in their search.
When the police brought photos and names to interrogate Zhang Haobin again, he completely fell apart and confessed in detail to the murder methods and the burial sites.
It should be said, Zhang Haobin had already crumbled once before; it was only because his family had given him a preemptive warning that he managed to hold on a little longer.
However, when a new set of evidence emerged, Zhang Haobin’s defenses utterly collapsed.
The 20-year-old Zhang Haobin didn’t quite understand the difference between the death penalty, a reprieve, and life imprisonment. With his personality, he fantasized a life of luxury and pleasure. Rather than being locked in prison for 20 years, coming out at 40, he would prefer...
This thought, people at 40 generally disagree with, but that’s how a 20-year-old thinks.
Most importantly, Zhang Haobin wasn’t immediately facing the death penalty, and with Meng Chengbiao’s coaxing and provoking, Zhang Haobin slipped up.
