Linzhou Municipal Bureau

When Quan Yifeng and Ji Lian knocked on the door of Lu Changchun's house, they never expected to hear such an opening sentence.Lu Changchun looked at the two "uninvited guests" with a smile on his face, and said, "You guys are here. I have been waiting here for a long time."

The two looked at each other for a moment, surprised and thankful that they came to the right place.

Quan Yifeng patted Dui Lu on the shoulder, and the two brothers hugged him nicely, and said, "I'll bother you when you're on vacation, brother, I'll make up for it first, and find a good place to drink two pots another day."

"Look at what you said..." Team Lu was a little embarrassed by Quan Yifeng's slightly excited tone, and was about to reply when he heard a voice from inside the room:

"Chunzi, who's here?"

"Hey, my dad is making tea in the living room, and my mom has gone to dance. She usually doesn't come back until after dinner in the afternoon." Team Lu gestured to the two of them, "Go inside, go inside."

While greeting the visitors, he agreed with the people in the room: "Old Quan, the criminal investigator, and Professor Ji."

Father Lu looked more than fifty to sixty, and he was a big man with dark skin.Quan Yifeng had met him twice before. He was not very flexible on one leg. I heard that he was injured on duty many years ago. Later, he was organized to take care of him. He took a part-time job in the yamen. Now he makes tea, reads newspapers and walks birds every day. He is semi-retired Life is also nourishing.

"Old Quan," Lu's father watched the two enter the living room, and half stood up, "Come on, and Professor Ji, sit down, sit down."

The two young men hurried to his side, gesturing to help him, but Father Lu waved his hands and sat down first.

In fact, Quan Yifeng has never heard anyone call him "Old Quan" before, this is really the first time for him.Among the four people in the living room, except Father Lu, they are all young people in their thirties, not to mention that Quan Yifeng is still the youngest, not even 29 yet.However, such details seem to be insufficient.

Father Lu made tea and let the guests drink it for two rounds, then got up with a cane.While taking off his coat and hat from the coat rack, he said, "I'm going for a walk in the small park next door, you guys chat slowly."

Lu Changchun sent his father out, and when he came back, he turned into the bedroom and brought out a big briefcase, "Actually, speaking of it, I have to thank you for coming this time."

"Why?" Both of them were very puzzled.

"The case of Brother Deng Zhongyi of Yixin Trading, right?" Lu Changchun motioned Quan Yifeng to move the tea set in the center of the coffee table and put down the bag, and after both of them nodded, he continued, "Oh, I'm not afraid of your jokes, we My family’s tutoring, one of the things I’ve heard the most since I was a child is: ‘Be careful sailing forever’. I don’t know if the old man has encountered anything before, anyway, I have become a habit, and I have been talking about it for so many years. It's more cautious. I was a little worried about this before, so you chose to knock on my door instead of the office door, which saved me a lot of trouble. "

Quan Yifeng and Ji Lian understood the words and nodded clearly.The task force is specialized in special matters, not only taking over the work of the Criminal Investigation Brigade, it seems that even the economic investigation is under its jurisdiction.

"Since all of you have come and our door has been opened, I won't go around in circles. This is part of the materials of the Yixin case, and everything related to the case has been handed over to the task force. These..." Lu Changchun held the materials in his hand After a pause, he turned to look at the two of them, "It's my private investigation."

Watching Quan Yifeng take the document with both hands, Ji Lian asked what was in his mind: "If we guessed correctly, there is indeed a problem with the Third Court?"

Lu Changchun looked directly at Professor Ji, then at Quan Yifeng, and said in a cautious tone, "To be precise, it is Dean Deng who has a problem."

"Deng Zhongyi, the father of Deng Zhongxin's brother, Deng Mingli, the former dean of the Third Hospital?!"

Quan Yifeng quickly flipped through the documents in his hand, Lu Dui pointed to one of them, and said, "Only these three sums of money were removed by Deng Mingli, and they were secretly moved back a year later. The in and out of the hook even I have complete evidence here."

He turned back dozens of pages, and then said: "Here, the time and amount of both parties match. Judging from the bank records and internal ledgers of Yixin Trading and its main merchants at that time, these three accounts Obviously, it was transferred to Yixin for emergency use. Yixin was seriously affected by the financial turmoil that year. Overseas buyers withdrew orders, closed down, and the leverage they used in the early stage was too high, which made the company's funds The chain is under pressure to be broken at any time. Even the money transferred by the Third Court is only enough for a temporary emergency, and cannot revive Yixin at that time."

"Looking at the time, one year after Deng Mingli embezzled public funds, the Deng brothers just started their criminal activities." After several months of painstaking research, Quan Yifeng has become familiar with all the time points of the whole case.

Ji Lian added: "But from the perspective of time, even if Deng Zhongyi and the Zeng brothers and sisters are genius criminals, it is impossible to plug all the money holes so quickly."

"So, either Deng Zhongyi lied about the time when he confessed the crime, or..." Quan Yifeng and Ji Lian looked at each other, "The source of the repayment is not their later crime at all. Income."

Even if Team Lu only understood the superficial meaning of their words, he couldn't help being shocked for a moment: Who else would be involved in this case?

However, Lu Changchun can only be regarded as being on the periphery of the whole incident. At this time, probably only Quan Yifeng and Ji Lian, who are in the center of the whirlpool, can truly understand the excitement of finally seeing the true face of Lushan.

From child trafficking, to human organ trading, to underground slurry stations, almost all heinous crimes have been "monopolized" by the Deng Zhongyi brothers, and even the suspicious and obvious Feiwei creature has almost no contact with its senior management body.The two brothers of the Deng family, they are like the last wall in a dead end.

This "wall" makes these people who have fought so many days and nights for the final truth to look at the key parts that are always missing on the puzzle and search hard.

"Actually, the reason why I did not report these is not entirely because of the pressure of 'closing the case' from above, but also because I have not yet been able to grasp the conclusive evidence of the financial transactions between the Third Court and Yixin. The 'firewall' of Deng Mingli and the others was very solid, and it was difficult to break through." Lu Changchun said frankly.

"Your decision is right. This firewall not only blocks the way for the police to investigate, but it is also likely to be the last guarantee to prevent the people behind the scenes from jumping over the wall in a hurry."

After Quan Yifeng finished speaking, the three of them fell into deep thought.

After a while, Quan Yifeng seemed to remember something, and asked Ji Lian: "Do you still remember the old Mr. Dong Can we met in the old villa on Chunxiu Road?"

"You mean the time when the Zhimo Public Welfare Foundation established a reception?"

"Yes. Deng Mingli is thoughtful and extremely low-key after leaving office. Team Lu's investigation must be very difficult. How about we change our thinking? Colleagues, let's give it a try."

Lu Changchun was a bit unfamiliar with the content of the conversation between Quan Yifeng and the others about the "distant cousin", but he was sure that the clues he provided were useful, and the two of them also found new hope to break through the investigation dilemma.

He looked at the two happily, and then remembered that after talking for a long time, everyone must have been dry. He turned and looked for the small side cabinet next to the sofa. photo album.

He knew this photo album, it was an old antique that had been dusted for many years behind the glass door of the bookshelf in his father's room.Although Lao Lu would take out the photo album and wipe it carefully every year and festival, it was rare for him to open it and read it.I don't know where today's interest comes from, but I remember the past.

Lu Changchun was about to close the album and put it back in its original place, but Quan Yifeng blocked it with his hand.

"Ah, I'm sorry," Quan Yifeng came back to his senses, "This, can you lend me a look?"

Lu Changchun put the photo album on the coffee table in confusion, and Ji Lian also came over.However, Ji Lian was stunned when he only glanced at the opened page of the photo album.

so similar.

In the middle of the album is an old yellowed photo, which looks like it was taken at the gate of some famous place of interest.There are seven young boys in the photo, either standing or squatting, and the one on the far left is undoubtedly Lu Changchun's father. After so many years, the basic facial features are still there.And the person next to him was the reason why Quan Yifeng almost lost his mind.

Quan Yifeng actually looks quite similar to his mother, with big and three-dimensional inner eyes, a tall but not too sharp nose bridge, and a palm-sized face, etc. It can be seen that he was right in the hospital.

But for the young man in the photo, the young man with bright facial features and a shy smile facing the camera, it is difficult to tell exactly which lines and which outlines. After all, they are not professional in face recognition, but It is very similar to Quan Yifeng.

Quan Yifeng thinks it is because he can admire his handsome face in the mirror in the bathroom every day when he washes his face and brushes his teeth.Ji Lian thinks so, let alone.He not only looked at this face every day, but also touched and kissed it. It was a face engraved on the tip of his heart.

A line of words was written at the bottom of the photo: "A group of Linzhou Criminal Police Brigade took a photo of Li Xiangshan in 19**." The time of taking the photo was nearly two years earlier than Quan Yifeng's birth time.

"I heard someone say that Uncle Lu once worked in the police system, but I didn't expect it to be my direct senior." I don't know if it was to cover up his gaffe just now, or for some other reason, but Quan Yifeng turned to the person next to him. Not a word.

"Oh, you mean this. He left early, you don't necessarily understand the situation. It's been almost 30 years since he hurt his leg. I guess I didn't know the words by then. Li Suo, so I have almost no impression of his colleagues in this photo, the old man has a very boring personality, and he doesn't like to mention his great achievements before."

Ji Lian asked: "So it's because of some kind of natural trust in the Criminal Police Brigade that you gave us such important information without reservation?"

"To tell you the truth, part of the reason is indeed because of my dad. You can't imagine that when I volunteered to report to the school, my dad tried to stop me. At that time, I thought, this old man who only knows how to walk birds is really bad. Very, haha." Team Lu didn't shy away from talking about the embarrassing things between father and son, "But what I didn't expect was that after I shared some thoughts with him a while ago, he took the initiative to tell me, saying that you can trust me. "

After coming out of Team Lu's house, neither of them said a word.

It wasn't until he got in the car that Quan Yifeng seemed to have made up his mind, took out his mobile phone, and dialed the number:

"Mom, it's me. Let me ask you something." His Adam's apple rolled up and down, "My dad, is he also a policeman?"
