Crime Hunt Files: Bloody Angel

There were clearly plenty of opportunities in the former open-plan old cadre building.

"Then... could it be that old Chinese saying?"

"What?"

"It's never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. Maybe the person whose sweetheart was taken away before has achieved nothing, and now he finally has money, so he hired someone to take revenge."

……

Although it sounds ridiculous, there are thousands of strange things. It is possible that some gentlemen still cannot take revenge after ten years and can only drag it out for twenty or thirty years.

"Let's check first."

He wanted to know whether Zheng Ting had ever been put on the dark web with a bounty.

Ryo Kuriyama nodded obediently, his fingers flying quickly on the keyboard.

Suddenly, he paused and said to Bai Ji'an, who was looking for documents, "If the murderer killed for the reward, why didn't he take the antiques in Zheng Ting's room?"

As long as ancient Chinese antiques are authentic, you can sell any one of them and they will be guaranteed for life.

"Remember," Bai Ji'an said, "If a person gives up something that is rare in the eyes of others, it is not because he is blind or stupid, but because what he really wants is something more precious hidden behind the rare thing."

In Ryo Kuriyama's eyes, the killer finds the target on the dark web and shoots him for the bounty on the head.

Bounty is money, and antiques are also money.

So, what is the thing that Brother Ji An said is more precious than money?

Ryo Kuriyama lowered his head and typed quickly on the keyboard. He wanted to know the whole truth behind Zheng Ting's death as soon as possible.

On the other side, Bai Jianan walked out of the study and looked at the wall clock. It would take five minutes for Nie Kaiyu to get up, wash up and go to work.

Bai Jianan reached out and patted Nie Kaiyu, and hit him on the head with a melon when he was half asleep and half awake.

"Zheng Ting is dead. He is Zheng Yi's father, Zheng Xinyun's grandfather, the Zheng Ting you met at the Hilton Hotel the day before yesterday."

Nie Kaiyu was stunned and asked in a daze: "Murder?"

If it was a natural death, he would not have heard the news from Bai Jian'an's mouth.

"Did anything special happen at the hotel that day?"

He was also present at the time, and since he didn't want to disturb Kuriyama Ryo, he could only harass Nie Kaiyu.

Thinking back to what happened that day, Nie Kaiyu had no time to remember any details about other people. His mind was filled with thoughts on how to convince Mrs. Nie to allow him and Kuriyama Ryo to be together.

He leaned back on the sofa, looking up at the ceiling and racking his brains. Suddenly, he sat up and said, "There's a magician!"

In the evening, Zheng Yi posted three consecutive posts to his Moments filled with pictures, eager to announce to the world that his beloved only son was six years old.

Taking the phone from Nie Kaiyu, Bai Ji'an pointed at the man in the magician's costume in surprise and asked a nonsense question: "This is a magician."

Nie Kaiyu nodded: "What's wrong?"

He had seen this person before. He was one of the people who was with Shao Lingyun in the shooting club.

After his arm was accidentally hit by Shao Lingyun, he asked him worriedly if he wanted to go to the hospital for a check-up.

Li Jie.

After forwarding all the photos to his mobile phone, Bai Ji'an turned back to the study and found the list of regular customers of the shooting club that he, Kuriyama Ryo and Catharina had spent the whole night checking the night before.

I went to the shooting club twice, once with Catharina as a customer and once with Howie, a friend of the store owner.

Inside, he had never seen or heard of any 357 Magnum bullets, so... Bai Jianan turned on his mobile phone and looked at the positioning system added to He Wei's watch despite his protest.

Why did he go to the shooting club?

Could it be that there really is 357 Magnum in the shooting club, but ordinary customers don't know about it, but He Wei knows about it.

If the 357 Magnum used by the murderer was really stolen from the club, it proves that he knew everything inside.

The modified magician's prop gun proved that he understood why the conflict arose between the magician and Zheng Yi and his son on the birthday party.

He knew everything about the shooting club and the little incidents that took place in the hotel.

To sum up, apart from Li Jie who often plays with Shao Lingyun, there is Zhang Dahui who was not present at the shooting competition but went to the Hilton Hotel to attend his birthday party.

It is also possible that Li Ren or Qian Yufeng accidentally heard from Zhang Dahui that Zheng Xinyu forced Li Jie to buy the prop gun.

The evidence before us points to Li Jie as the murderer, which makes it very unlikely.

Then, the remaining people...if the murderer of Zheng Ting was He Wei's comrade-in-arms.

Thinking of the day of the shooting competition, when Li Ren and Qian Yufeng were talking and laughing with them, and the video of He Wei and Han Yang carrying out the mission on the dark web, Bai Ji'an's breathing stopped.

Maybe He Wei had thought of all this, which was why he went against his usual behavior in the morning and deliberately set out alone before the main force went out on the field mission.

"Lend me your boyfriend."

Without waiting for Kuriyama Ryo to react, Bai Ji'an rushed out.

Then, the bathroom door opened and Nie Kaiyu screamed. Soon, Bai Jianan picked up the Volvo car keys and dragged him away.

Sitting in the driver's seat, Nie Kaiyu, who was still in shock, fastened his seat belt and said, "Can't you take a taxi to go find him? You don't need this little money."

I have to pull him.

Even if it was on the way, he hadn't prepared a loving breakfast for Ryo Kuriyama!

Bai Ji'an said nothing, leaning on the passenger seat and listening quietly to Nie Kaiyu's complaints until he started the engine.

Bai Ji'an pointed at the gradually flashing clock and asked, "Are you sure you want to blame me?"

7:20 am.

He clocked in at 8:00.

"I go!"

Nie Kaiyu stepped on the accelerator and drove the SUV like an F1 car.

After parking the car at the entrance of the pedestrian street, Dr. Nie, who worked from 8 to 4, stepped on the gas and drove away without even turning his head.

According to his memory, Bai Jianan gradually approached the shooting club.

He kept walking forward. Three empty police cars were parked in front of the store. Passersby cast curious glances at him from time to time.

Bai Ji'an stood in the middle of the road, his eyes passing through the rows of shops. In the distance, a black SUV was parked at the end of the pedestrian street, with half of its front visible behind the crowd of people coming and going.

The moment Bai Jianan stood in front of his car and silently said his name, He Wei opened his eyes wide in shock.

He wanted to get out of the car, but Bai Jianan, who was faster, had already opened the passenger door and sat next to him.

"Howie."

"Ji An, how could you..."

"Are you ok?"

"I……"

The door of the shooting club opened, Fei Chen led the way, followed by Shang Siwen and Huang Yuqing.

Following He Wei's gaze, Bai Jianan turned his head and saw that Han Yang, Chen Zeyang and Lu Haoran were each accompanied by a man.

He knew the first and second people, Li Ren and Qian Yufeng without a doubt.

As for the stranger who came out last, it was, unsurprisingly, Zhang Dahui, who did not appear in the shooting competition the day before.

I watched the shop door being closed and watched them step into the police car one by one.

The result is obvious.

Police found the 357 Magnum used by the murderer in the shooting club.
