crime puzzle

All the way from Qilan City to Maogui District, Cheng Xiaojing basically got to know someone——Chen Jiajin is really a veritable rich second generation, showing off his wealth is like his innate skill.

Of course, this is also due to Chen Jiajin's open mouth. Compared with him, Lan Tian Lan He is much worse.

In order to clarify the truth in advance, Cheng Xiaojing took the initiative to confess the fact that the surveillance video was in his hands.Before Lan Tian had time to express, Chen Jiajin opened his mouth.

"Just those few videos of beating people? I paid for it, not much money."

In his eyes, an exposing criminal record is as simple as spending money to buy a disc.

The blue sky rests on his shoulders.

"That's the way it is, so Xiaojing, don't have any psychological burden. We bought it out with money, it's just a business."

Cheng Xiaojing said: "Aren't I piracy? Do I need to pay Young Master Chen's copyright royalties?"

Chen Jiajin leaned over and asked, "What are you going to do with it?"

Cheng Xiaojing said: "I'm a lawyer, so of course I use it for serious business."

Chen Jiajin said something with a deep expression.

"Is it necessary to provide the source of the evidence in court? I request anonymity. I don't want your money."

Lan Tian said, "No, just say it's mine."

Lan He asked without beginning or end: "How much?"

Chen Jiajin said: "One hundred thousand, small money. For Lan Tian's sake..."

"I'll buy it." Lan He said, "In this way, Young Master Chen's middleman can be anonymous."

Lan Tian snorted and muttered, "It's amazing to be rich."

Hearing this, Chen Jiajin had a look of enlightenment on his face, and suddenly said: "No, no, I won't sell it. I gave it to Lan Tian."

Cheng Xiaojing asked: "Not for sale? Does that count as evidence for me?"

"...Let's sell it." Chen Jiajin hesitated again and again, looking at Lan Tian anxiously and said: "My dad's situation is not very good now, it's better for me to restrain myself a little bit."

Lan Tian patted his shoulder and shook his head helplessly.I don't know whether he is lamenting his IQ or his father's current situation.

When they got to the club, the four of them were taken to the top floor on the left.The last time I came here, Cheng Xiaojing and Chen Yifan stood downstairs to observe the building.Coming up this time, Cheng Xiaojing walked on the top floor, subconsciously looking to the left.

When I looked downstairs, I felt that the top floor was different from the one below. When I got here, I found out that the structure is actually the same. The shop-style compartments are still compartments, but after being transformed into offices, the windows can be opened.

Lan He asked the girl leading the way in a low voice.

"This floor is the office of your club, or are there other shops?"

The girl smiled back at him.

"Few people would rent an office in a simple shop. We only rented an office because of our business and administrative needs."

"Is there only one room?" Lan He looked at the closed doors all around.

Cheng Xiaojing clicked just now. There are 24 rooms on the first floor. If each room is rented, there are at least 48 offices on the second floor.A shopping mall says that there are more than 48 shops, which is considered a small number, but it is just like what this girl said.Few people rent offices for simple shops, only clubs that need other business operations will rent offices.

He also noticed that all the closed doors here, except for the signs on a few doors, are empty and have nothing.

"Have so many offices been rented out? It's amazing." Cheng Xiaojing said.

The girl evaded the important point and changed the subject, saying, "Don't think the law and order here is not very good, but the business has always been good. It's just that it is relatively deserted at night."

Lan He smiled and said, "Hearing what you said, I'm a little tempted by the investment I mentioned last time."

The girl said: "Then invest in our club. Although it is an evening business, the income has been good in recent years, and we are the only one in the neighborhood. It is a business that is sure to make money."

Chen Jiajin snorted at the side, and said, "There are already big investors like me, and you still need people to invest. Your Boss Qian has a big appetite. It's just a club, do you want to expand and open branches?"

"When the business is done well, everyone wants to expand. We welcome any discerning investor like Young Master Chen to come. Isn't it great for everyone to make money together." The girl's smile continued, her desire for money no pretense.

Chen Jiajin's energy was provoked.

"Isn't it easy to ask for money? I'll give it to you when I go back later."

"Okay, you can talk to Boss Qian face to face. There seems to be a new investment project recently. It just so happens that a lawyer friend is here, and I can help you check it out."

When Cheng Xiaojing heard the word lawyer, he glanced at the girl's back sensitively.

——He remembered that none of them had explained their identities to each other before they came here, right?

Lan He answered calmly, and said, "Your boss has hired a good employee, and you've seen it all."

The girl stood in front of an office door, stretched out her hand and opened the door a crack, and said with a smile, "The boss is waiting for you inside."

The boss surnamed Qian, his full name was Qian Tonghui.When Cheng Xiaojing and his group entered, he was reading a newspaper, and when he heard the movement, he raised his head and immediately showed a polite smile on his face.

He still had the same temperament as at the bidding meeting—just looking at the bookish air emanating from him, one would never have guessed that he was the owner of an entertainment venue.

"Sit." He said as he got up, walked to the empty single sofa and sat down.

The girl leading the way came in to make tea for them. Boss Qian seemed to have remembered something and said, "Xiao Qin, let Liu Wei come over soon."

After it was over, he explained something to Lan Tian.

"In those few days when Xu Changshan was not there, he was on duty instead. You should ask him about the specific details."

Lan Tian hurriedly said: "Boss Qian is too polite, we just asked casually."

Qian Tonghui hesitated for a while, and asked: "No, no, it should be. You didn't say that I didn't even know that this person had a problem. I let others handle these things. You know, in our business, we will meet at night. It's normal to have a little bit of a fight."

Lan He asked: "Do you also recruit part-time jobs for current students?"

"Yes, there are..." Qian Tonghui said: "Our business is looking for young people. The kid you checked before looks good and looks very good. We wanted it then."

"Did you recruit through normal channels?" Lan He asked.

Qian Tonghui said: "I also learned a little bit about this matter. Xu Changshan was the one who admitted him at that time." He took out a document from under the coffee table and handed it to Lan He.

Lan He took it over and took a look, and said, "Xiao Tian?" As he spoke, he glanced at Cheng Xiaojing.

Lan Tian frowned and said, "No, Boss Qian, what we're looking for is a kid named Xiao Xiaotian..."

Lan He interrupted him and said, "The photo is of him, and he used a pseudonym."

Lan Tian shut up, frowned and gave him a look why didn't you say it earlier.

Qian Tonghui was a little dazed, and asked, "Pseudonym?" He also reached out to pick up the information in Lan He's hand.

At this time, there was a knock on the door.

When everyone looked up in unison, half a person came in from outside the door.

Qian Tonghui immediately straightened his back and said, "Xiao Liu, it's just that you are here. Let's take a look at this."

Liu Wei stepped into the door, carefully pushed the door closed, and walked quickly.

Lan He looked at him and handed the information to him.

Cheng Xiaojing looked at this person, Liu Wei seemed to be a well-behaved person, not very tall, even with a cropped cut, the overall feeling was shrinking.When Lan He handed him the information, his hands were neatly placed by his side, and he looked at it from a crooked posture.

Very cautious.

Liu Wei: "That's him, the man in the surveillance that day."

Qian Tonghui was a little annoyed for a moment. Due to the presence of outsiders, he said in a low voice: "I can get in with a fake name? I don't even know what to say about you."

Liu Wei was a little flustered, and his tone was a little messy, and he said: "This... was the person that Brother Xu was going to come in at that time. I think I heard him say it once. He said that this person was introduced by there, so he put it in our venue. That's good, let me not say it."

Qian Tonghui's breathing became louder.

"Don't tell me if you don't tell me? Something happened now, you say you are like this..."

Liu Wei's face turned slightly pale, and he stood there at a loss.

Qian Tonghui glanced at him and said, "Is there any surveillance on this person?"

"It was sorted out last time." Liu Wei carefully looked at the boss's face.

Qian Tonghui looked at Lan He and asked, "If you have anything to ask him, just ask."

Lan He glanced sideways at Cheng Xiaojing.

Cheng Xiaojing reached out and took the documents in his hand, and asked, "What did you mean by the other side?"

Qian Tonghui answered Cheng Xiaojing on his behalf, and said: "I know this, let me tell you. Xu Changshan knows a lot of people, and when I recruit him, most of them are dealing with human relations. That is the labor agency."

Cheng Xiaojing asked: "The labor agency still uses such a vague name?"

Qian Tonghui glanced at him and said, "You are a lawyer, right? Have you handled some gray area cases? Some people can't find a job if they go through normal talent channels."

Cheng Xiaojing understood in seconds.

Qian Tonghui continued: "It's so easy to have peace in the world, there must be some place for them to survive."

Cheng Xiaojing suddenly asked him: "What did Boss Qian do before?"

Qian Tonghui chuckled, and said, "The eyes of a lawyer are amazing. I used to be an academic, and I haven't been in the sea for a few years."

Cheng Xiaojing said with a smile: "I have suffered a lot and made a lot of detours."

"That's not it," Qian Tonghui sighed, "This world is not straight."

Cheng Xiaojing asked: "Does Boss Qian know Xiao Min?"

Qian Tonghui paused reflexively, and said, "I seem to have heard the name before."

Liu Wei suddenly said: "Xiao Min...isn't that the woman that Brother Xu has been thinking about before? Two days ago... I heard that she died in a car accident. Her family even came to the mall to make trouble."

Cheng Xiaojing had never heard of this matter, Chen Yifan only said that her parents went to the city every day to squat dead bodies.

"Who made trouble?"

"I heard it's her brother."

Cheng Xiaojing was in a trance for a moment.

He blurted out and asked, "Her brother has been here?"

Liu Wei shook his head blankly and said, "I don't know much about the things in the mall. I've heard people say these things too."

The club works at night, and the shopping mall works during the day. It is normal that there is no intersection between them.Cheng Xiaojing remembered that the little girl at the cashier in the mall said that Xiao Min's family had never been here.

People who have never been here.

When my parents were still fighting with the police to snatch my sister's body from the city bureau, they came to the shopping mall alone and made a fuss. Why?

Cheng Xiaojing stood up and said, "Excuse me, I'm going out to make a phone call."

Lan He got up subconsciously.

Lan and the others yelled, "Why are you all gone?"

Lan He glanced back at him, "You stay here with Young Master Chen."

Chen Jiajin raised his eyebrows on the sidelines, as if he was dissatisfied with Lan He's arbitrarily using him as a shield.
