crime shadow [criminal investigation]

"I believe I didn't do it?" Jiang Nan felt that Cheng Qiong probably put a thick filter on him, and the flowers looked beautiful no matter how they looked through the fog. He turned his head and asked Yang Chao, "Do you believe it?"

"Ah?" The question was too abrupt, Yang Chao couldn't react for a while, "I..."

Jiang Nan: "Could you be a tease sent by Deputy Director Song and Uncle Xu?"

Yang Chao: "..."

Jiang Nan's eyes were like radium rays, and he scanned Yang Chao once.He remembered that when he negotiated terms with Xu Zhengyuan back then, he originally had the idea of ​​giving it a try, but Xu Zhengyuan agreed without much consideration. After he experienced the case of the Han family, he discovered that Xu Zhengyuan had ulterior motives, so this person was appointed by Xu Zhengyuan. , The leader of the special case team personally approved by Deputy Bureau Song is the tease they sent.

Regarding the burglary and homicide case years ago, it has reached a dead end, and Yang Chao will still return to the original point if he continues to investigate.And the idea of ​​the two old men couldn't be more obvious. Since this road is impassable, they should change to another one. If they often walk by the river, how can anyone not get their shoes wet?No matter how deep the opponent hides, they will show their feet due to force majeure, such as Wen Hongliang.

While hanging the signboard of the task force leader, Yang Chao followed Jiang Bei to various venues. Maybe what happened today would reach the ears of the two old men in the next second. The two old foxes seemed to have been waiting for an entry point. Now It's time to wait.

Because of Cheng Qiong's presence, Jiang Nan didn't ask Yang Chao much, but Yang Chao remembered the business of coming to the hospital today, and asked Cheng Qiong: "Aunt Cheng, do you have any basis for trusting him?"

Cheng Qiong shook his head.

Yang Chao: "..."

Well, it really depends on the filter.

Cheng Qiong's overly loving gaze made Jiang Nan feel uncomfortable, and thinking that Yang Chao wanted to ask Cheng Qiong something, it was inappropriate for him to be present, so he got up and told Cheng Qiong to wait outside first, and if he didn't leave, the other party reluctantly agreed he is gone.

At this moment, there were only two people left in the ward. Yang Chao dragged the chair and moved forward. He spoke straightforwardly, never transitioning from one topic to another, and said straight to the point: "Aunt Cheng, suppose, I just assume , Jiangnan did not harm Cheng Ye, so who else do you think is suspected?"

Cheng Qiong was staring at the top of Jiangnan's head in a daze through the small glass window on the door. Hearing this, he was taken aback, his eyes probably said "what do you mean?"

Yang Chao explained: "I asked Jiangnan before, he went back to his rented house the night Cheng Ye's accident happened, and he remembered that he closed the door of Cheng Ye's house when he left. Cheng Ye was killed in his own house, and trace inspection went to see it." , There is no trace of the door lock being damaged, that is to say, someone who knows the password of Cheng Ye's house can enter the house and commit murder without breaking the door lock, so who else knows the password except you and Jiangnan?"

It is well known that Jiangnan replaced Cheng Ye, and he lived in Cheng Ye's house in a fair manner. The two brothers couldn't talk about it. In order not to reveal the truth, Jiangnan locked Cheng Ye in the storage room. In other words, after Cheng Ye left Jiangnan that night , there is no chance to take the initiative to open the door, so excluding Jiangnan and Cheng Qiong, there must be someone who knows the password of Cheng Ye's house.

At that time, Jiangnan's explanation was also ambiguous, and there were many doubts, such as why he chose to leave Cheng Ye's house on the night of the crime and return to his rental house. He lived alone, and there was no one who could help him with an alibi. The key point was that he ran away after learning about Cheng Ye's accident, so he almost got the word "suspect" engraved on his forehead, but...he didn't seem to be able to wash himself off if he didn't run away.

Yang Chao bombarded Jiangnan about this matter, and finally Jiangnan had no choice but to explain that part of the reason why he went to the city bureau instead of Cheng Ye was because he wanted to see Jiang Bei, who knew that Jiang Bei was not interested in him at that time, not only looked at him coldly, but also made friends with him. He quarreled, and Jiang Bei happened to lose his temper with him on the night of Cheng Ye's accident.

"If the person you have been secretly in love with for more than ten years quarrels with you, you will be in a bad mood. I just want to go back to my home and think about my life, and think about whether I should continue to make mistakes, can't I?"

These were Jiangnan's original words, but his brain twitched, and he felt that this daughter-in-law would not be able to catch up, so it would be pointless to stay in the city bureau, so he planned to go back and tell Cheng Ye that he would not change his identity.

He left Cheng Ye's house at 12:3 in the morning. Cheng Ye died between 5:7 and [-]:[-] in the morning. When he returned at [-]:[-], he saw that Cheng Ye was dead, and his first reaction was to run.

Yang Chaoqiu first believed what he said was true, who was that, who sneaked into Cheng Ye's house while Jiangnan was away and committed murder?

Cheng Qiong just woke up, and her spirits were not good. When Yang Chao mentioned something sad, she leaned on the soft pillow: "I remember you asked me before, but I couldn't think of who it was. Xiao Ye rented a house after his internship. And I can't stare at him all the time."

"It's okay, you think about it slowly, anyone you think of can say it," Yang Chao leaned forward, looking like he wanted to ask the bottom line, "For example, Cheng Ye's friends and neighbors, since the other party knows the password of his house, it should be People who are close to him, or girlfriends, really can't, boyfriend..."

Cheng Ye should be straight.Yang Chao shut up.

"Boyfriend?" Cheng Qiong took the words and waved his hands, "No, no, Xiaoye is not Xiaonan, so I won't do that."

Yang Chao: "..."

Auntie Cheng is very careful, which can also be seen!

Cheng Qiong didn't say anything. After all, she had no relationship or reason with Jiangnan, so she couldn't care about other people's private affairs. Besides, Officer Jiang seemed to be a nice person, so there was nothing to worry about.

"Ono is getting older, and he doesn't want to tell me many things. I don't know who he usually talks to, and I haven't seen him take anyone home to play. Only once, when he was in high school, he brought a classmate back and said It was the same period of his orphanage, and I don't know if they contacted each other later, that classmate seems to be called..."

When Jiang Nan was waiting helplessly outside the ward, Yang Chao came out, and the first thing he said was: "Come with me to the City Bureau."

Jiang Nan didn't refuse: "Why, Uncle Song came out of the mountain? Are you going to start working? At first I thought he helped me because of Ah Bei's face, but now that I think about it, it's all a routine."

"Aren't you also very happy with the quilt?"

Jiang Nan shrugged.

City Bureau, Criminal Police Detachment Office.

I don't know if it's because of the late autumn, but it's a bit cold in the room, and no one said anything, the atmosphere is extremely cold.

At the right time, someone broke into the door, and Lin An came in with a stack of documents. He was bluffing, but when he saw Deputy Director Song and Xu Zhengyuan in the office, he was immediately discouraged and greeted him politely.

"What's the matter?" Jiang Bei asked.

"Oh, the second-hand car dealer sent over the subscription information filled in by the buyer," Lin An said, "The buyer of the car in which Xu Jialei had an accident is named Liu, and the ID number he left is still being checked, most likely it is fake—— —”

Just as he was talking, Yang Chao knocked on the door and came in. He was not surprised to see Xu Zhengyuan and Deputy Bureau Song, as if he knew that Xu Zhengyuan would come in advance.

He said, "Jiangnan is here."

Jiang Nan thought that he would be treated differently as a family member of the deputy detachment leader, but...what's the matter with arranging him in the inquiry room?Not even a glass of water.

He glanced at Deputy Director Song, Xu Zhengyuan, Yang Chao, and Lin An who were sitting facing him. The reception lineup was a bit too luxurious, but he couldn't be happy for some reason, and only smiled when he saw Jiang Bei.

"Be serious." Deputy Director Song shouted, and then he gave an overview of the investigation into the cause of Han Wenzhou's death 20 years ago. Jiang Nan's reaction after hearing this was not as great as Lin An's. He is the only one who doesn't know the feelings, and deeply feels that he has been abandoned by the team.

Jiang Nan let out an "oh", indicating that he knew: "Then, what did you bring me here to ask me?"

Yang Chao: "Do you know a man named Liu Tianyu?"

Yang Chao asked questions without warning, which made Lin An dazed again. He quickly looked through the buyer's subscription information provided by the car dealership. From Party A's ghostly signature, he could hardly see that the buyer was also called Liu Tianyu, and he took a deep breath.

Jiang Nan frowned: "Who are you talking about?"

"Liu Tianyu," Yang Chao explained, "Auntie Cheng told me in the hospital that Cheng Ye brought a man named Liu Tianyu home at the same time when he was in the orphanage. , could it be that this person entered Cheng Ye's house to commit murder while you were gone? Do you recognize him?"

"do not know."

"Strange," Yang Chao asked suspiciously, "Aunt Cheng said that this person is Cheng Ye's classmate from the same high school. Didn't you also go to high school for Cheng Ye? How come you don't know his high school classmate?"

Jiang Nan: "Maybe he's not Cheng Ye's classmate?"

At the beginning, Jiang Nan shared an identity with Cheng Ye. In order not to reveal his secrets, he would naturally deal with Cheng Ye's friends, whom he didn't even know.

"I really don't know," Jiang Jiang emphasized again, "Maybe that person named Liu Tianyu is avoiding me on purpose, but my acting skills are superb, and few people can see the difference between me and Cheng Ye. He wants to avoid me in advance. , you must know that Cheng Ye and I are twins, and know when Cheng Ye and I changed identities."

"Wait a minute," Lin An's mind raced as soon as he heard the name Liu Tianyu, as if he had discovered a new world, "The buyer of the car in Xu Jialei's accident was also named Liu Tianyu, assuming it was the same person, then Liu Tianyu knew Xu Jialei, so he must know Regarding the matters of the Han family, including the fact that Cheng Ye and Jiang Nan are twins, and they can avoid Jiang Nan, there is no need to assume that they are clearly the same person. Is Cheng Ye familiar with him?"

Yang Chao: "Didn't you say it was during the same period in the orphanage? Cheng Ye was adopted by Cheng Qiong when he was six years old. They still kept in touch in high school, so they should be very close."

"Whether he sneaked into Cheng Ye's house after Jiangnan left and committed the crime remains to be verified," Jiang Bei said suddenly, who had not said a word, "What is certain now is that Xu Jialei once received a call from a person surnamed Liu. The buyer is also surnamed Liu, Liu Tianyu must have something to do with Xu Jialei's death—"

"Can't get rid of the relationship?" Jiang Nan interrupted Jiang Bei, and took over, "In this case, why did he help Xu Jialei set fire and hide in the villa for a sneak attack before? What is the purpose of the two of them cooperating? From the very beginning, it was aimed at the old man’s inheritance, and for this reason, he also made a seemingly perfect criminal plan. Liu Tianyu helped him for money? I don’t think he is so dizzy that he wants to pay for a few taels of money. The degree of actively jumping into the fire pit."

"What if he did it for you? You forgot to count yourself in," Jiang Bei's gaze met his, "Xu Jialei's plan is to get rid of other heirs who monopolize the inheritance. The two of them should be 'solving the heir'." An agreement was reached on this point. If you think about it carefully, no one told about Han Cheng looking for his grandson, but Xu Jialei kidnapped Aunt Cheng to lead you there, and then you were attacked by fire. How could he know that you were one of the heirs? How could he be sure? Taking away Auntie Cheng will surely lure you into the bait, who told him these things? If Liu Tianyu and Cheng Ye are really in the same period, I think he should be aware of the relationship between Auntie Cheng and your two brothers, and his cooperation with Xu Jialei is just to use each other. Although the goals are different, the process is the same, it's just that the cooperation collapsed in the end."

Although Jiang Nan really wanted to choose himself out of the whole thing, he thought of Jiang Bei once telling him, "There are some things you have to accept whether you like it or not, and it's useless to escape."

He tried to accept and put himself in the right place instead of being separated from the outside. No matter how he made it up, he couldn't complete the logical circle.

"Well, Deputy Jiang's team is right."

Jiang Bei: "..."

The response to Niu playing the piano is probably greater than that of Jiangnan.

"speak politely."

Everyone: Does this belong to spreading dog food?

Under Jiang Bei's gaze, Jiang Nan remembered that he was in the city bureau, not on his own sofa, and sat up straight unconsciously, like a student who was suddenly called by the teacher for not listening in class.

"But I don't know Liu Tianyu, why does he have a 'special liking' for me?" Jiang Nan saw that Xu Zhengyuan, who had been resting in the corner with his eyes closed, moved, and continued, "Uncle Song didn't think he had a 'special liking' for me. , but someone else, such as my half-brother, this is why you are looking for me today, right?"

Xu Zhengyuan was probably mentally ill, and his voice was low and hoarse: "I thought so too at first, but after this series of events, I changed my mind. The child was young 20 years ago, and he might want revenge because of his psychological imbalance. Now 20 years have passed. , it is not ruled out that he still has the idea of ​​revenge, but I don't think an adult male will do something one after another because of some past events. Do you still remember Zhang Xiaowei who defended Sun Yihang in the case of Soubun Middle School?"

Turning the topic to the previous case, Jiang Nan followed his train of thought and replied, "Remember, Sun Yihang just followed his way to admit to the trumped-up charges."

"Zhang Xiaowei is a very famous lawyer. He used to be a legal consultant in Dayang Group①." Xu Zhengyuan supported his head, as if recalling the past, "but earlier, he was Han Wenzhou's personal consultant. I met him when investigating Han Wenzhou's car accident. At that time, Dayang Group was just a small workshop, and Han Wenzhou invested a lot of money to develop and grow. Zhang Xiaowei was transferred to Dayang Group by Han Wenzhou. When Han Wenzhou died, the big benefactor was gone. The group went bankrupt within a few years."

Jiang Nan didn't know about the relationship between Zhang Xiaowei and Han Wenzhou. After hearing what Xu Zhengyuan said, he vaguely got a clue: "Do you think that after Han Wenzhou died, Zhang Xiaowei followed my half-brother?"

Xu Zhengyuan did not answer directly, but said: "Anyway, because of Zhang Xiaowei's intervention in the Yuchun Middle School case, he coaxed... It can be said to intimidate Sun Yihang to confess the crime, and his purpose is to close the case as soon as possible and interrupt the investigation. You are the witness , but Cheng Ye gave false testimony on your behalf, if the investigation continues, it will be difficult to tell where Cheng Ye went and who he met on the night of the incident, which also led to Wen Hongliang's escape."

"Wen Hongliang knew about the two of you changing identities when he was working in Yauchun Middle School. After being arrested, he even wanted to negotiate with you and let you help him escape. Look, how miserable he died in the end."

Jiang Bei pondered, although Xu Zhengyuan usually sits at home, he knows the details of the case like the back of his hand, it seems that Yang Chao's role as the mouthpiece is quite good.

"But I didn't expect that Wen Hongliang would die at the hands of a little girl. The one who bought... murder... murdered people was actually an underage little girl's film," Xu Zhengyuan continued, his tone full of sighs, "and pulled out a Human, organ, and organ trafficking cases, I was thinking, what kind of little girl can get in touch with organ, organ traffickers?"

Jiang Bei's thoughts diverged very quickly—yes, Qiu Xingran took advantage of the fact that she was under fourteen years old that the police did not dare to do anything to her, so the confession was full of loopholes. She and Gu Qing partnered to find organ traffickers and buy them Although she said that the reason for buying. murder. killing people was that Wen Hongliang was not pleasing to the eye, but the reason was very far-fetched. On the other hand, Wen Hongliang has observed the twins for many years. If he does not die, he can always explain something. Useful things came out, such as where Cheng Ye and Jiang Nan went and met after they changed their identities.

As well as the tens of millions of money that Qiu Xingran gave Ma Wei after the promise was made, how could such a large amount of money come from a minor?

Jiang Bei added a digression: "What disease does Han Wenzhou's first wife have?"

"The end-stage rheumatic heart disease required an organ transplant. At that time, domestic medical conditions were limited, but Han Wenzhou was able to send her abroad for a transplant operation, but because of the birth of twins, he had no time to take care of his wife, and it was delayed until she died of illness. .” Xu Zhengyuan raised his hand and rubbed his eyes, but his eyes were still cloudy.

It’s hard to imagine how a teenage boy felt when he watched his mother pass away in pain and regret, while listening to the immature laughter of the twins. Whether from that moment on, a thorn pierced into his heart and merged into the Flesh and blood began to take root and sprout, and eventually a flower of sin bloomed.

Except for Deputy Bureau Song, the shock of the rest of the people couldn't be overwhelmed, but Xu Zhengyuan didn't explain too much, and instead said: "Then there is the matter of the Han family fighting for property, I believe you can see it, Xu Jialei is honest on the surface, but in reality He has a lot of messy intestines. He has been in the Han family for many years. No one knows how much he knows. He is uneasy and wants to become a big fat man. He planned murder, arson with Liu Tianyu, and finally failed. Wen Hongliang was miserable, and Wen Hongliang was in a bad mood for a few days."

Speaking of this, Jiang Nan knew it in his heart: "It sounds like someone is raising Gu. The existence of Gu is to keep a secret."

Once someone wants to open the Pandora's Box, Gu will appear - Zhang Xiaowei's threats, Cheng Ye's false testimony, Qiu Xingran's buying, killing, killing, and Liu Tianyu's destruction of the brakes all successfully solved the person who tried to get close to the box, Gu is doing his best to protect his master, or in other words, it may be protecting their common interests.

Thinking about it further, everyone present, including Jiang Nan, wanted to get close to the magic box, but Jiang Nan had a special status, and Gu took special care of him, which could explain why every time a crime happened, Jiang Nan Even if he did nothing, he could be involved. If it weren't for him, the Han family's affairs would not have exploded so thoroughly.

Xu Zhengyuan obviously took a fancy to him, and wanted to turn him into a key, a key that could open the magic box.

That's all the words, but Jiang Bei still has doubts: "There is no evidence to prove that the Gu came from the same Gu cup."

The cases so far are no coincidence, but there is always a thread that can connect everything together.

The interrogation room fell into an eerie silence, only the shallow breathing of a few people chasing each other, at this moment, "I have evidence" came out weakly from the corner.

Lin An was so shocked that he was cracked, and he had to use up all his brains to figure out the cause and development of the whole incident. Normally, he would definitely give a speech, but the atmosphere at this time was not suitable, so he had to wipe his forehead. Sweaty, lightly put down another document in his hand.

"Before, Brother Jiang always thought that there was something wrong with Qiu Xingran and Gu Qing. I asked them to check their information. Their information was changed. It took me a lot of work to find out. Fortunately, it was not too late."

Lin An cleared his throat with a sip of water: "Gu Qing was adopted. Her adoptive parents said she was adopted in the xx Welfare Institute. This is true, but she has been transferred, and she stayed in the Sun Welfare Institute at first."

As soon as the words "Sun Welfare Institute" were uttered, the people present obviously took a breath, because Cheng Ye also came out of the Sun Welfare Institute.

Lin An seemed to be talking about some high-level secret, with a serious expression on his face: "Qiu Xingran said that she lived with her uncle without father or mother, but in fact she is also a member of the Sun Welfare Institute and has never been adopted. Her real household registration is still a collective of the Welfare Institute. As for Liu Tianyu, if he is really Cheng Ye's contemporaries, then..."

Then these four people all come from the same orphanage!
