bad man

In the police station, a group of people looked solemn.

"The cause of Wu Qiang's death is the same as Lin Ming's. His neck was broken and he died of suffocation." Li frowned and said, "They were probably killed by the same person."

Originally, Wu Qiang was expected to find out the murderer, but now all clues are broken.

"Team Lin, what should we do now?" asked the thin monkey.

Lin Yan stared at the photo in his hand, a silver-white ring.

"The clues are not broken." Lin Yan suddenly raised his eyes to look at the crowd. "This ring is a couple ring. It was bought by Lin Ming for his lover back then. According to inference, this lover should be the mysterious lawyer back then."

"Yeah." Skinny Monkey agreed, "But what does this have to do with Wu Qiang's death?"

"Why did Wu Qiang take a photo and copy an identical ring?" Lin Yan asked.

The thin monkey was puzzled.

"If you see his bank records, you will understand." Lin Yan said in a deep voice, "According to Wu Qiang's colleagues, he is a bad gambler and owes a lot of money. His wife and daughter have already run away. Before the incident happened Ten days later, Wu Qiang owed nearly 100 million yuan. With his salary of 5000 yuan a month, he might not be able to pay it back in ten years. But one week before the incident, he suddenly paid off all the money, and there was more money in the account. 900 million."

"With Wu Qiang's income, he doesn't have any rich friends around him. Even if he wins the first prize, it's impossible for him to suddenly have 1000 million yuan." The thin monkey wondered, "Where did his money come from?"

"Here is the key." Lin Yan said slowly, "We can make a bold guess and link these two things together. Wu Qiang has some photos in his hand, and he wants to use them to blackmail, but he is not sure. , so first ordered a ring in the photo as a test. The person who was blackmailed by him saw the ring and the photo, and was afraid that Wu Qiang would make it public, so he had to give Wu Qiang 1000 million."

"But the matter has been settled, why is Wu Qiang still dead?" The thin monkey was puzzled.

"According to customs records, after Wu Qiang paid off the money, he went to Macau." Lin Yan said in a deep tone, "I lost 2000 million in the casino."

As soon as the voice fell, there was an uproar.

Now, everyone understands.

"Wu Qiang eats the marrow to know the taste, and repeats the same trick, using photos to blackmail, but this time, he paid for his own life." Xiao Li said with a serious face.

"Wu Qiang will definitely not give the real negatives to the other party, the photos must still be in his hands."

"But we searched all over Wu Qiang's apartment, but we didn't find any photos."

Lin Yan's face darkened, "Go and find out who Wu Qiang met before he went to Macau."

"Yes, Team Lin."

In a blink of an eye, a week passed.

Lin Yan made no progress at all.

He stayed up all night and never came home.

When Lin Yan was called by the officer for questioning, his expression was calm.

"Lin Yan, you go back to your vacation immediately."

"The case hasn't been solved yet." Lin Yan refused to leave.

"Look at yourself, what you've become." The officer was a little helpless, "I'll hand over the case to Group B Team Zhou, you can go back and have a rest."

"No, Sir!" Lin Yan said stubbornly.

Seeing Lin Yan like this, the officer couldn't help but sighed, "Go back and be with your mother, and discuss your brother's funeral by the way."

Lin Yan's complexion suddenly changed.

"Your mother doesn't know about your brother's death, right?" The officer knows that Lin Yan has never returned home since he learned of his brother's death. , since there is no clue, you should go back and calm down."

Lin Yan looked at the officer and remained silent for a long time.

Finally, he rode his motorcycle and returned home.

Lin Yan held the key in his hand, but hesitated to open the door.

At this time, the door suddenly opened.

Mother Lin wanted to open the door to throw out the garbage, but when she saw Lin Yan standing at the door, a smile appeared on her happy face, "Xiao Yan, why are you still standing at the door when you get home, come in quickly."

Lin Yan was dragged into the house like this. He hadn't been home for almost two weeks, and he was subconsciously escaping from reality.

Lin's mother cares about her children like all mothers in the world, especially Lin Yan became a policeman.Encountered a big case, Lin Yan did not go home for a month. Although Lin's mother was worried, she knew the seriousness and would not hinder Lin Yan's work.Now that Lin Yan is back, Mother Lin said happily, "I've been busy these days, see how tired you are, and don't tell Mom when you come back. You wait at home, I'll go shopping right now. I'll make you your favorite pickled pork with preserved vegetables tonight."

Lin's mother was about to take the key to go out, but she didn't want to, and was stopped by Lin Yan.

Lin Yan lowered his head, his eyes flickered, "Mom, I have something to tell you."

Lin's mother had never seen her son's expression like this before, and she felt a little twitching in her heart for a while.

Lin Yan told his mother about Lin Ming.

He waited for reproach, for curse.

No, Mother Lin just sat there blankly, as if she had lost her mind.

Mother Lin didn't say anything, and went back to the room alone.

Lin Yan sat in the living room, uneasy.He heard the hysterical crying from the bedroom, and his heart ached like it was cut by a knife and dripping blood.

Fear, sadness, shame, regret, every minute and every second tortured Lin Yan like a knife, making him at a loss what to do.

Time seemed to go back to that summer, when he lost his younger brother at the playground, he returned home in panic and fear, his mother grabbed him, ran all over the street, and finally drove him out of the house angrily.

After a while, there was no sound in the bedroom.

Lin Yan was even more frightened, and he got up quickly.

At this moment, Mother Lin came out.

Lin Yan stood there, waiting for his punishment.

Mother Lin walked to his side, with wet tears on her pale face, and said slowly to him, "Find a time, and organize your brother's funeral."

After Lin Yan grew up, he never cried again. When he heard this sentence, he couldn't help but burst into tears, "Mom, I'm sorry—I'm sorry—it's all my fault—"

Mother Lin stroked his head slowly, closed her eyes, and said tremblingly, "It's all over."

Yes, it's all over.

After so many years, Mother Lin still holds a glimmer of hope, but she knows how slim this hope is.Now, hope was completely shattered, and she was almost completely knocked down.

Just like 20 years ago, when Lin Ming disappeared, Lin's mother fell ill and almost died.

Twenty years later, Lin's mother heard the bad news again. This time, she was completely overwhelmed by the illness.

Mother Lin couldn't attend Lin Ming's funeral, because she fainted on the spot and went to the hospital after seeing Lin Ming's skeleton at the police station. After waking up, she became unconscious.

The double blow almost drove Lin Yan crazy. He vowed to find the murderer no matter what price he paid.
