Getting the best from Tarkov
Chapter 71 Being targeted
"During that time, I went to the antique street every day. What happened?"
Now Zhang Jian was even more confused.
Liao Fan doesn't play by the rules at all. Others try to hide as much as possible, but he puts everything out in the open.
Resisting the urge to complain, Zhang Jian continued to ask, "So what did you do in Antique Street?"
"Well, I'm embarrassed to say this. I've been wandering around Antique Street every day, just to see if there's a chance to find a bargain. But I'm not very skilled, so I don't dare to make a move. But I'm itching to get some, so I decided to satisfy my curiosity."
"Huh...Do you know this woman?"
As he spoke, Zhang Jian suddenly took out a photo from his notebook. Liao Fan took a closer look and was shocked to find that the photo was actually of Xu Qi.
At this moment, Liao Fan's heart skipped a beat, but he controlled his facial expression, not daring to reveal the slightest bit of abnormality, and said in a deep voice, "I know him."
Now Zhang Jian has no idea what to do.
Not only Zhang Jian, but even Du Jie beside him frowned.
Just now, when Liao Fan saw Xu Qi's photo, she successfully captured an unnatural expression on Liao Fan's face.
Judging from the psychology of micro-expressions, Du Jie was very sure at that moment that Liao Fan and Xu Qi definitely knew each other, and it should be more than just knowing each other.
Not only that, from the unnatural expression on his face just now, Du Jie could also be sure that Liao Fan was very shocked that Zhang Jian would show him Xu Qi's photo.
But before she could think about what this meant, she heard Liao Fan admit it very calmly.
Seeing Liao Fan's direct admission, Zhang Jian could only continue to ask: "What is your relationship with her?"
"Uh, you misunderstood, she and I have nothing to do with each other, we are just acquaintances.
I had done business with her boss before. I sold her former boss a sweet white glaze porcelain vase. That was the only time I found a bargain.”
Here, Liao Fan played a trick. What he said about knowing the other party and having done business with the other party's boss was true, but he did not directly say how many times he had done business with her boss. After all, although the sweet white glaze porcelain vase was good, it was just good. But it was difficult to explain the origin of the blue and white porcelain tea set.
Sure enough, after hearing Liao Fan's explanation, Du Jie and Zhang Jian had no doubts about it, nor did they care about the content of the transaction Liao Fan mentioned. Instead, they were somewhat interested in the "former boss" he mentioned.
"Former boss? What does that mean?"
"Oh, that's right. Xu Qi didn't work at Jubao Pavilion before. She worked at Duobao Pavilion. But then Duobao Pavilion closed down, so she moved to Jubao Pavilion."
At this point, the content of the conversation among the three had actually unknowingly deviated from Zhang Jian's original expectations. If they continued to talk in the direction guided by Liao Fan, the two of them would gain nothing from this conversation.
However, Du Jie was specially transferred from Kyoto to help, and her ability was far beyond that of the young Zhang Jian, even though she was also very young.
"Mr. Liao, can you tell me why you have been following Xu Qi?"
Hearing Du Jie's question, Liao Fan deliberately showed a hint of surprise, but it was only a moment later that he returned to normal. Then he hesitated for a few seconds and replied: "Well, actually I followed her because I wanted to know where her former boss went.
You may not know that her former boss was Feng Caier, a beautiful store manager who was famous throughout the antique street, so... ahem..."
After listening to Liao Fan's explanation, the two did not reveal anything, but Du Jie did suddenly ask: "Then why didn't you just stop her?"
Looking at Du Jie deeply, Liao Fan hesitated for another 2 seconds and said, "It's not that I don't want to. I was thinking about how to contact her at first, but one day, I found that she seemed to be secretly selling the channel information in her boss's hands to other antique shop owners.
Therefore, I suspected at that time that Feng Caier's Duobao Pavilion was transferred because it could not continue to operate and went bankrupt due to Xu Qi's disruption.
Before I could confront her, she had an accident and died in a fire at home."
Du Jie and Zhang Jian had never expected that Xu Qi actually had such an identity. They were stunned at first, and then they both started writing something on their notebooks.
However, Du Jie reacted faster and asked directly while Zhang Jian was still writing: "How do you know she is dead?"
"I saw it. I saw her take a car home that day, and not long after, there was an explosion on her floor, and then black smoke and flames began to come out of the window."
The subsequent questioning went completely astray after Liao Fan took the initiative to reveal Xu Qi's identity as a commercial spy.
If Yang Jianguo had explained the details about Xu Qi's fire to the two of them in advance, they would not have been led astray so seriously by Liao Fan.
Du Jie was parachuted in, and she only knew the specific details of the case through the narration of her colleagues in the task force.
But there are not so many ifs in reality.
It was a good opportunity for Liao Fan to reveal his true identity, but it was missed in such a confused manner.
Liao Fan left, and Zhang Jian quickly finished his notes. After exchanging a glance with Du Jie beside him, they both said almost simultaneously, "You go first!"
"Okay, I'll go first. Officer Du, do you think what Liao Fan said is true?"
Hearing Zhang Jian's question, Du Jie first nodded, then shook her head.
After seeing Zhang Jian's suspicious expression, he said, "Some of what he said is true, or most of it is true, but some of it is false. I also feel that he is intentionally misleading us. As for where he started, I'm not sure yet. Let's go ask Director Yang first. I have a feeling there are many problems with this case."
After listening to Du Jie's words, Zhang Jian nodded, and finally the two of them stood up and walked towards the director's office.
As for Liao Fan, after coming out of the police station, he sat in the car and smoked one cigarette after another.
Although I got away with it this time, since I have already been registered with the police, there is a high possibility that I will be under long-term attention or even surveillance in the future.
Then I will have to put my investigation of Feng Caier on hold for the time being.
After thinking this through, Liao Fan threw away the half-smoked cigarette, started the car and drove towards the company.
As soon as he parked the car, Liao Fan saw the Cayenne parked not far away.
But when Liao Fan just walked into the company, he saw Wang Yi pushing the door out of his office with a dark face. He didn't even look up when he met Liao Fan's face, but just kept muttering something.
Just when Liao Fan was wondering about Wang Yi's abnormal behavior, he saw Tang Yunong lying on her back on the sofa in his office, with a pair of dishonest feet wearing a pair of black over-the-knee high boots resting on the armrest of the sofa, swaying rhythmically.
Looking at the high-heeled boots swaying in front of him, Liao Fan's eyes unconsciously began to drift upwards.
But just when she was about to see the mysterious area under the leather skirt, she heard a slightly lazy hum in her ears.
Liao Fan, who was caught red-handed, did not feel embarrassed at all and walked straight to his seat very naturally.
After he sat down, Tang Yunong changed her previous laziness and stood up to sit on the chair opposite the desk.
But those beautiful legs were not placed on the ground honestly, but were placed high on the desk.
Now Liao Fan had an even harder time.
Two long legs in black stockings were lying straight in front of him, but not only could he not touch them, he had to look at them secretly.
