Hunting down the Northwest Wilderness

Now all the evidence is connected into a thread by Fang Lingshu, including what can be explained and what cannot be explained, but there is already a fact that is close to being formed before his eyes.

Fang Lingshu didn't go home directly, he went to the bureau, tossed about for more than two hours, and then called Zou Rongze.

"I'm going to have a showdown with my dad."

"What did you say, did you finally decide to marry me?"

"..."

"Don't be angry, baby, do you know that your tone just now is like a leopard." Kevin said slowly: "That's not a tone suitable for negotiation."

"I don't have the right to request arrest." Fang Lingshu eased his emotions: "I can't delay any longer. I think it is necessary to arrest Liang Xu first and raid his home. The day he came to the police station, his shoes were brushed. I think it is very likely that he was stained with blood when he committed the crime-whether there is or not, let's search first."

"Based on my understanding of Chinese government agencies," Kevin said, "Lingshu, have you considered that if this search fails, there will be no reason for you to search him next time?" After a pause, he continued. : "You told me yourself that the Guanzhong government hopes to maintain the stability of public opinion in the process of handling this case, and now you are fighting against them."

"You want to blackmail the Chinese government, right? Yankee, let me tell you the truth, I have a very bad temper now. If you want to quarrel, I'll be an angry youth to accompany you."

There was silence on the phone.

After a while, Kevin laughed: "Okay, if you want to blame me, then I will bear it willingly."

Fang Lingshu was at a loss for words.

"Lingshu, I can understand your uneasiness. You found out your father's secret, so you are angry and scared. Before the Jinchuan case and Qujiang case are solved, you may take him to court first-oh, go to China I don't know much about the procedure. Besides, you also understand the consequences of the raid, and you are not sure, so you are irritable." Kevin said: "Sweetheart, you are all aggressive now, if you scold me Can make you calm, then let me take off my clothes and enjoy your insults. After all, we haven't played that set for a long time."

Fang Lingshu laughed angrily at him.

Kevin seemed to be taking off his clothes at the other end, and there was a sound of cloth: "Okay, I'm naked, and I'm completely naked—my princess, do you want to whip me or stomp me?"

"...Porn & Passionate."

"Is it calm?"

"You get out!"

Yes, Fang Lingshu knew in his heart that the good result of a surprise search is to seize the evidence on the spot, and the bad result is to return empty-handed.

Returning empty-handed would bring countless rumors, and more accusations against the police.Liang Xu's position is already very pitiful. He just lost his father and was raided by the police for no reason, and his civil compensation has not been judged in time.One can imagine how the Internet will distort this matter.

The two faced each other silently on both sides of the ocean, and the wind blew in from Fang Lingshu's window.

The night in Chang'an already has the feeling of autumn, and the night wind is starting to cool down.

Kevin heard Fang Lingshu's nasal apology: "I'm sorry, Kevin, I shouldn't lose my temper with you."

"No, I shouldn't." Kevin smiled: "It's my privilege to hear you lose your temper. If you lose your temper at others, I'm afraid I'll be jealous."

"I'm in a mess right now, I don't know what the talk with my dad will be like." Fang Lingshu wiped his eyes: "I want to convince him to arrest Liang Xu, and I want him to reveal Liang Xu's identity himself. Kevin, you know what happened between me and him, but that doesn't mean I don't love him."

"The truth is not necessarily as bad as you imagine." Kevin said: "There must be a reason for bearing the humiliation."

After a while, Fang Lingshu let out a meowing "hmm" from the phone.

Kevin lowered his voice to coax him: "Be brave, baby, if you want to cry like this, how will I deal with my desire later?"

With a crying voice, Fang Lingshu scolded him vaguely: "Get out of your mother."

"Okay, okay, my sweetheart, just scold me." Kevin lowered his head and picked up his tie—he didn't really take off his clothes, just to scare his little police officer: "It's late, go home Talk to your father—the same sentence, any of our actions must have evidence, but the evidence cannot be obtained by violence and recklessness."

"I know."

Kevin put on his tie slowly. This is an airport, and everyone around is watching.I just hope everyone forgives his joke and don't call the police that he is going to run naked.

Many were grinning as the half-Latina man styled his tie with one hand.

It was only then that Fang Lingshu heard what sounded like a broadcast on his phone.

"What are you doing? In the mall?"

"Yeah, I'll buy you a present." Kevin said nonsense, "Your birthday will be in half a year."

...What kind of bullshit reason is this.Fang Lingshu's mind was full of the case, and he didn't have time to think about it, but a burst of tenderness welled up in his heart.

Fortunately, he was able to meet this man from the other side of the ocean, he made up for all the shortcomings in his heart, and always allowed him to find a peaceful heart in the restless moments.

Without thinking, he called out: "Zou Kaiwen."

"Ok?"

"I love you."

"...My God, are you suggesting that I have phone sex with you?"

"I love you! Hang up!"

Fang Lingshu was afraid that he would say something nasty again, so he gave him a "boo" kiss and hung up the phone quickly.

Yes, there are difficulties, but everything is on the horizon.When this case is solved, he will resign and go to the United States.

There's no reason to keep Kevin waiting like that.Immigration is not guaranteed, but at least work for three days and three nights first.

As long as Liang Xu's identity is clear, the mess can be solved from the beginning.Including the guard who followed him, since he works in Cuiwei Garden, he is not afraid that he will not be found.

When he walked out of the compound of the Public Security Bureau, the autumn wind was blowing again. Looking up at the night sky, it was reflected in his eyes as a brilliant deep blue.When the night sky in Chang'an is rarely so clear, you can see the Big Dipper hanging from the sky like a sword when you look up.

He Guangyao of the Big Dipper shines brightly in the long night.

Sure enough, Fang Zhengjun didn't sleep, but he didn't deliberately wait for him. When Fang Lingshu returned home, Fang Zhengjun was writing a report in his study.

Fang Lingshu carefully put away the things Liang Xu gave him before knocking on his father's door.

"came back?"

Fang Zhengjun is used to being frugal, so he doesn't turn on the air conditioner at home, and writes reports with bare back.Hearing his son enter the door, he asked without raising his head.

Fang Lingshu leaned against the door: "Captain Fang, are you busy?"

Fang Zhengjun heard that his son's accent was wrong, so he turned around: "What are you doing?"

Looking back, he saw Fang Lingshu wearing glasses and holding a stack of papers in his hand.

"I want to talk to you." Fang Lingshu said.

Fang Zhengjun gave him an annoyed look: "Go to the bureau and talk about business matters. Don't need to talk about your mother. What does she know?"

Fang Lingshu walked up to him: "Captain Fang, I ask you to make a request on your behalf to arrest Liang Xu as soon as possible and raid his residence."

Fang Zhengjun looked at him for a long time, then threw his pen on the table: "Why are you crazy?"

Fang Lingshu looked at him nonchalantly: "Even if I don't tell you, you still think Liang Xu's residence should be searched, don't you?"

"That's a matter of the bureau. You are only in charge of investigation and investigation. What did you find?"

Fang Lingshu pushed his glasses and sat down next to his father: "In three days, the Criminal Investigation Center conducted a blanket investigation of all the residents of Cuiwei Garden and conducted interviews. Some people witnessed Liang Xu haunting Cuiwei Garden before Lu Shigang died."

"So? He has an alibi, and you testified for him yourself."

"Don't worry, I won't talk nonsense without evidence." Fang Lingshu spread out a stack of photos.

"We carefully checked all the surveillance cameras in the city that were still in operation on the night of the 27th, from Mingde Gate to Cuiwei Garden. Captain Fang, look who this is."

Fang Zhengjun raised his eyes and saw that it was a technically processed surveillance screenshot—because it was night, it was extremely blurry, so he could only zoom in and then process it. Fang Lingshu and the entire Criminal Investigation Center watched these videos countless times, looking for a needle in a haystack. These few screenshots were taken.

"Walking posture, clothing characteristics, height, body shape, is Liang Xu." Fang Lingshu said: "From 09:30 to [-]:[-], he appeared in Qujiang Convention and Exhibition Center and Hanyao Road. This route leads to Cuiwei Garden. But I don’t think he wants to go to Cuiwei Garden, because Lu Shigang’s Guangyuan Building Materials Company is on Hanyao Road.”

This is a famous street in Chang'an. It is said that Wang Baochuan waited for Xue Pinggui for ten years here.

Lu Shigang didn't think the name of Hanyao Road was inauspicious, he was a good company, opened in Hanyao.

Fang Lingshu looked at the photo and suddenly smiled.

Liang Xu probably wanted to go downstairs to the company to block Lu Shigang.

"I don't know why, but he didn't meet Lu Shigang near the company. The surveillance didn't capture them appearing in the camera at the same time." Fang Lingshu said: "But around ten o'clock, he came out from the south gate of Cuiwei Garden, only the back view, But I'm sure it's him."

Fang Zhengjun was a little disapproving, but he still put on his reading glasses and looked at the photos carefully.

"The most important picture is too blurry." Fang Zhengjun said, "Liang Xu went to Hanyao Road, which is still a long way from Cuiwei Garden. He wanted to claim compensation, but he couldn't find Lu Shigang, which is justified. You To testify against him, this last photo is really unconvincing. This back view can be said to be him, you can say it is Xiao Deng, or anyone. Without witnesses, this back view alone cannot be used to obtain evidence."

"That's why I want to request a search of his residence. There must be other evidence hidden in his residence. Even if the blood is washed away, as long as we act quickly, we can extract the remaining traces of blood samples."

"You're completely spitting blood." Fang Zhengjun became strict: "Just relying on a few screenshots, he will be blamed on him. Then he will search his house——Fang Lingshu, have you read the documents from the provincial department? What is Liang Xu's identity? You ran to search with great fanfare at this time, but if you can't find anything, how do you explain it?"

Fang Lingshu stopped talking.

Fang Zhengjun sighed, and helped his reading glasses: "You are not convinced, young man, you act recklessly and impulsively, I can understand that. Let me tell you one more thing, Lu Shigang's call records before his death were provided to us by China Mobile ——At around eight o'clock that night, Lu Shigang called his son, and then called his wife when it was almost twelve o'clock."

"I know that," Fang Lingshu pondered for a while, "You want to say that at least at this time, Lu Shigang still has the ability to move freely."

"Yes." Fang Zhengjun was helpless: "Do you think I didn't watch the surveillance? I was watching every night on duty, and the evidence is insufficient, Lingling. You are a policeman, and you must have real evidence when you do things."

"There is evidence, but I'm afraid you will have a heart attack if you hear it."

Fang Zhengjun didn't expect him to answer like this, so he couldn't help looking down at him.

"Some evidence, I won't say, because it's not very good-looking, and it's inconvenient to disclose." Fang Lingshu lowered his head: "An informant informed me that half a month ago, just a few days after Liang Feng passed away, Liang Xu once secretly commissioned a private detective to investigate Lu Shigang's identity and steal his DNA."

Fang Zhengjun was a little stunned, he really didn't know about this.

"If Liang Xu really has no plans for Lu Shigang, why would he spend a lot of money to steal Lu Shigang's DNA sample?"

"Who said this, you let him come out and testify."

"The other party is a private detective. It is impossible to come out to testify for you. They still have business."

"What kind of bullshit business?" Fang Zhengjun pushed his son away: "Illegal violations! Fang Lingshu, who do you hang out with every day?"

Fang Lingshu got up from the ground and took two steps back: "I don't have to lie, why do you need to be so angry?"

Fang Zhengjun was really angry: "I don't understand, Liang Xu is a good boy, what enmity does he have with you? You plotted against him face to face and back, I didn't say anything, just pulled a few pictures The surveillance insisted that he was following Lu Shigang, so I didn’t say anything, and now I don’t know where to get a private detective, and he’s talking nonsense——Fang Lingshu, don’t you feel at ease if you don’t shoot Liang Xu?” He said again He patted the table: "Catching a prisoner, can a mad dog like you bite like you? Liang Xu is suspicious, but others are not? How did he offend you? Eighteen scapegoats like you have no sense to plant on others?"

Fang Lingshu didn't say anything, just looked at Fang Zhengjun, and after a while, he laughed: "I'm also curious, why are you protecting Liang Xu so much?"

Fang Zhengjun blushed, "Why am I protecting him?"

"Captain Fang, why are you protecting Liang Xu? You should know best in your heart." Fang Lingshu took off his glasses, "You, Uncle Chen, and Liang Feng—Uncle Liang, why do you protect Liang Xu so much? "

Hearing Liang Feng's name, Fang Zhengjun's pupils suddenly constricted.

"I am really interested in Liang Xu's identity. This interest was not given to me by others. It started when you avoided talking about Lu Shigang's identity as a suspect. From then on, I began to wonder whether Liang Xu had anything to do with the Jinchuan case. What connection. But he has a clean background, he is the son of a shooter, and it seems that he has nothing to do with the Jinchuan case."

Fang Lingshu thought and thought, and handed the sample report to Fang Zhengjun: "I'm sorry, I violated the rules. Don't punish Xiao Yang. I threatened her to do it——I got Liang Xu's sample by accident, and I did it again. Unfortunately, it was found that Liang Feng's autopsy samples were still in the bureau, so we analyzed them, and unfortunately, we found that they were not related by blood at all."

Fang Zhengjun didn't expect him to be so bold, he couldn't get angry for a while, so he just looked at him through gritted teeth.

Fang Lingshu knelt down in front of his father, and raised his head innocently: "Captain Fang, and the former director of the Zhichuan Police Station, and I, who was very young, lived with you in Zhichuan at that time. You travel around all year round, but For a while, you were at home all of a sudden, and I thought you had a sex change, but now that I think about it, did you bring someone back from Jinchuan County?"

Fang Zhengjun didn't speak.

"Oh, if I remember correctly, once you promised me to play in the Children's Paradise, I waited for you at school until it was dark, and I cried all the way to find you. I was told that you had gone to the north of the city. Then you told me that it was I have a temporary business, I believe it." Fang Lingshu touched his nose: "I remembered this shit again in the past two days, and couldn't help but look up the old map at that time. Well, it turns out that the Zhichuan orphan back then The courtyard is in the north of the city."

Fang Zhengjun still didn't speak.

"Liang Feng, I have to call him Uncle Liang, right? You are all soldiers in Huayang County. A comrade in arms who came out of the army, I don't know if he looks down on others when he is rich. He became the champion of the National Games. You two have nothing to do with each other, have you?" Fang Lingshu looked at his father viciously: "So he died, you and Uncle Chen didn't even want to go to the funeral, what kind of comrades are you? Don't forget each other even if you are rich or noble I understand, is it still worth paying for this free gift?"

These words really angered Fang Zhengjun.

"Fang Lingshu, don't speak too harshly. It's nothing to do with your juniors?"

"Oh..." Fang Lingshu nodded: "So you also admit that you know Liang Feng!"

Fang Zhengjun was bullied by his son, and immediately stopped talking.

"Uncle Liang Feng is so kind. He is willing to be a successor and raise a son for others. Liang Xu is not his own, but he has worked so hard to raise him for 12 years. How much true love is this?"

Fang Zhengjun finally couldn't bear it anymore, and slapped Fang Lingshu on the face.

"How did I raise a bastard like you? Why do you say that about others?"

Fang Lingshu wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.

"What's there to get excited about? Captain Fang, isn't what I said the truth?" He stood up slowly: "It's hard to say who gave Liang Feng such a cheap son, maybe, probably, there is Maybe, it was brought from Zhichuan County Orphanage. But who has the right to erase Liang Feng’s adoption records? Or, the police station that registered his household registration simply skipped the adoption procedures of the Civil Affairs Bureau and directly I got a registered permanent residence——wow, as expected of the champion of the National Games, adopting a son is even more privileged than others!"

Fang Zhengjun was just silent.

The director of Zhichuan Police Station is himself.He understood what Fang Lingshu was insinuating.

Can't let go.

Fang Lingshu was satisfied.He patted his butt and changed positions.

"Okay, seeing the pain on your old man's face, I won't make things difficult for you." He blew on his glasses: "I don't care what Liang Xu's status is, and I don't pursue what you did in the past. Let's get back to the case."

Unconsciously, Fang Zhengjun breathed a sigh of relief.

It all fell into Fang Lingshu's eyes.

"Just now you proved Lu Shigang's call records with me. Indeed, if he really made the call himself, it is indeed iron-clad evidence, proving that Lu Shigang was still alive when Liang Xu saw me."

Fang Lingshu approached him: "But Dad, I want to ask you, how can you confirm that this call is made by Lu Shigang himself? The murderer also has hands, and he can also make the call. How can you confirm that it is Lu Shigang who answered the phone?" Tianjiao? His name was registered on the phone card, but we didn’t find this phone at the scene—it wasn’t with the victim at all.”

Fang Zhengjun stared at him: "Say, tell me, what do you want to say?"

Fang Lingshu sat down in front of him slowly, slowly.

It's alright, all the foreshadowing, just for this moment, Fang Zhengjun's psychological defense has collapsed.All the empty words that Fang Lingshu uttered included the search of Liang Xu, Liang Xu's actions, and the adoption of Liang Feng that he deliberately slandered.

It was all just to see Fang Zhengjun's attitude.

No need to answer, Fang Zhengjun's attitude has already explained everything.Fang Lingshu knew that he had guessed everything correctly.

"What do I want to say? I want to say why the Qujiang case can't be a joint crime? Why can't Liang Xu have an accomplice?"

"..."

"Someone helped him kill, or someone coerced him to kill."

Fang Zhengjun didn't react when he heard the word "help", but his expression turned ugly when he heard the word "coercion".

"I want to ask your room captain, I also want to ask Mr. Chen, Mr. Li, the Jinchuan case, the Qujiang case, why do you believe that it was a single murderer? It has been 15 years, why the Guanzhong police have been clinging to this idea Don't let go? Can you give me an explanation?"

Fang Zhengjun's lips moved, he stared at his son like a wolf, but he couldn't say a word.

"It can't be said, right?" Fang Lingshu also stared at him: "Because there are still living witnesses, he told you that the murderer is alone. In order to protect this survivor, you will do whatever it takes to keep him alive. If he exposes his identity, he will be killed and silenced!"

Fang Zhengjun sat with a pale face, without saying a word.

"But you didn't expect that, unfortunately, this child was really lucky. His biological parents were killed in the Jinchuan case, and his adoptive father died in the hands of the son of the original suspect in the Jinchuan case. ——You are afraid, Captain Fang, you are afraid that this child will know the truth, so even if he asks you, you will not answer. But you did not expect that he would secretly check Lu Shigang's identity, if you were this child , can you not take revenge?"

Fang Zhengjun's entire face was distorted.

"It's been 15 years, you, Chen Guohua, Liang Feng, you have protected this survivor and hoped that he would survive and grow up well. Even if he may become a new murderer now, you are still unwilling to expose him With your identity, you can’t face the fact that the child you protect has become a maddened avenger, right? Fang Zhengjun?”

"This survivor is Liang Xu, am I right?"

Dead silence.

From some corner of the wall, there was the noise of autumn insects.

They confronted each other for a long time, and the eyes of both of them were full of anger.

After a long time, Fang Zhengjun lowered his head and muttered with difficulty: "Why are you asking this...what are you going to do..."

"Dad, I beg you to tell me." Fang Lingshu knelt down in front of him: "Who the hell is Liang Xu? He told me today that he might be in danger. I don't know if someone is threatening him." What—maybe that person is the real culprit of the Jin Chuan case that you have been looking for for 15 years."

He grabbed Fang Zhengjun's hand: "Aren't you going to save him?"

These words finally moved Fang Zhengjun.

Fang Zhengjun lowered his eyes and looked into Fang Lingshu's eyes.

"Today, you came here to tell me something." Fang Zhengjun said sadly, "I understand."

Fang Lingshu just watched him without moving.

Yes, knowing a son is like a father, Fang Zhengjun will not be unclear about what he is thinking.It's just the word "feeling", which Fang Zhengjun couldn't get rid of.

"Yes... yes, you are right, exactly."

Fang Zhengjun raised his head, choked for a long time, and said in a trembling voice:

"He is the only orphan in the Jinchuan serial case, among the seven cases. His real name should be... called... Zhang Xiaobing."
