"Do you know this guy named Chu Yan?" Lin Xun turned to Zheng Shuo thoughtfully as he watched the siblings leave with the forensic doctor and criminal police.Zheng Shuo squeezed his chin with his left hand, looked around the scene, and answered this question casually: "I just had a small car accident, and my car hit him."

"Such a coincidence?" Lin Xun wondered.Zheng Shuo squinted at him: "It's such a coincidence, why?"

"Just now when Chu Sitong reported his phone number, I sent someone to the telecom company to check. The two brothers and sisters are in trouble." Lin Xun pulled Zheng Shuo to the window and said in a low voice.Zheng Shuo glanced out the window, and there was still a large group of onlookers downstairs, and from time to time someone could see someone picking up their mobile phone to take pictures of the seventh floor.Radio crews with cameras also appeared near the cordon, and were dealing with the police stationed at the scene.

"What's the trouble?" Zheng Shuo withdrew his gaze.Criminal investigation is not his specialty, he came here just to see the scene to get a preliminary understanding of the situation, and wait for Lin Xun to give him a conclusion before he can investigate the aspects he is responsible for.

"Chu Sitong is Chutian's daughter. That Chuyan was originally Chutian's nephew and was later adopted as an adopted son. But that's not the point. Do you know what his last name was?" Lin Xun showed a meaningful expression.Zheng Shuo shook his head simply: "You won't have my last name."

"Don't be poor. His surname used to be Lin, and his name was Lin Yan." Lin Xun patted Zheng Shuo, withdrew his joking tone, and looked at him solemnly.

"Lin Yan?" Zheng Shuo was thinking, searching for the name in his mind.Lin Xun was about to remind him, but the phone rang again, so he had to step aside to answer the phone.Zheng Shuo stood on the spot, scanning the downstairs with sharp eyes. The figures of Chu Yan and Chu Sitong finally walked out of the building and got into the ambulance one after the other. The quick-witted police stopped him.

"Lin Yan...Lin Yan..." After watching the ambulance roar away, Zheng Shuo's frowning brows suddenly loosened. At this moment, Lin Xun finished answering the phone and turned to meet his eyes. .

"Chu Yan's information is not complicated. Except that he is Chu Tian's nephew, his background and experience are not a problem at first glance." Lin Xun called a subordinate, took the folder in the other party's hand and handed it to Zheng Shuo: " After that incident, he was sent to study in London by Chutian, and he joined Tianhe Group as a legal consultant when he returned from graduation two years ago. At that time, Chutian was in poor health and had retired for three years. Tianhe is in the care of his own son Chu Guanghe, and Chutian himself went to the United States for training, and he never came back."

Zheng Shuo flipped through Chu Yan's personal file and listened: "Did you go to Zha Tianhe?"

"I just mentioned it, and it hasn't been approved yet. You also know that companies like Tianhe can't just check it if they want to." Lin Xun's tone was obviously not as calm as before.

"Okay, I'll go back and check with Bureau Liu first. If you have any progress, please contact me directly." Zheng Shuo made a gesture of making a phone call with his hands, and clipped the files of Chu Yan and Chu Sitong and the composition report of the Lost Empire together. Gone under the armpits.Lin Xun watched him leave, but for some reason, there was a strong uneasiness in his heart.He stopped Zheng Shuo again: "Hey, be careful."

Both of them have been policemen for nearly ten years, and they no longer need to tell each other to be careful.But Lin Xun has been restless since this morning, especially his right eyelid kept jumping after seeing Zheng Shuo.Those who do criminal investigation cannot be superstitious, but it is impossible for them to be completely non-superstitious in this line of work.Especially in the eyes of experienced criminal police, sometimes what happens is so weird that you have to believe in evil.

Zheng Shuo smiled casually, and poked him with his index finger in the air, meaning "you too".

====================

General ward of No. [-] Hospital in the afternoon

Chu Sitong's dirty school uniform had already been changed, and it was handed over to the technician who followed to take it back for testing.The doctor roughly explained to Chu Yan the results of the physical examination, and there was indeed nothing serious.Chu Sitong's spirit has also stabilized a lot, and she can have some porridge just now.

Chu Yan sent the doctor away and made a phone call to someone before returning to Chu Sitong's bedside: "Tongtong, do you want to transfer to a private hospital or go home?"

"Go home!" Chu Sitong grabbed him and said without thinking. A trace of guilt flashed across Chu Yan's eyes, and he gently stroked the girl's cleaned cheek: "I'm sorry, I was too careless and only focused on work."

"Second brother, this is none of your business!" Seeing Chu Yan blame himself, Chu Sitong hastily corrected him.At this time, there was a knock on the door, and Chu Yan walked over to open the door.The other party nodded to him, and looked past him to the girl on the hospital bed: "The doctor said that Miss Chu's condition is stable, and we want to make a statement as soon as possible."

Chu Sitong's mood became unstable again because of this problem.She shook her head in resistance, and subconsciously pulled the quilt up to cover her face.Lin Xun looked at Chu Yan in embarrassment. Since Chu Yan studied law, he naturally understood how important Chu Sitong's statement was at this time.He motioned Lin Xun to wait for a while, and asked him to talk to Chu Sitong alone.

City No. [-] Hospital does not have VIP wards like private hospitals, and the environment is much noisy.In view of Chu Sitong's current special situation, the hospital temporarily arranged for her a two-person room with an empty next-door bed.

"Tongtong, you have to cooperate as much as possible when the police officer wants to record a statement, so that they can catch the person who kidnapped you, and you don't want this bad guy to go unpunished." Chu Yan tried to put his tone as gentle as possible, and Chu Sitong was quiet for a while, Finally, he pulled down the quilt covering his face a little, revealing two big eyes full of hesitation.

"Don't be afraid, brother will always be with you." Chu Yan parted her bangs, and pressed her warm palm on the girl's fair forehead.Perhaps this temperature eased her fear, and perhaps it was her most trusted family members who were by her side at the moment.Chu Sitong looked at him silently for a while, and finally made up her mind and nodded.

Chu Yan opened the door again, but was stunned when he saw the person following behind Lin Xun.

Lin Xun briefly introduced himself to Chu Sitong and took out the recording pen.Chu Sitong had already sat down on the pillow, her face still pale, and Chu Yan was standing beside her as a guardian, but her eyes flicked to the seemingly careless person who stood leaning against the wall in a relaxed posture from time to time.

Police officer Zheng—he pondered in his heart.Lin Xun did not introduce who Zheng Shuo was, only that he was "Officer Zheng".According to common sense, the police will not allow outsiders to be present when they record the victim's statement. This officer Zheng should also be a criminal police officer.But he is not as rigorous as a general criminal policeman should be, at least he is very different from the criminal investigation detachment leader who is personally recording a statement, he is more like a policeman...

Before Chu Yan could figure out what it looked like, his attention was drawn back by Chu Sitong's sudden cry.He hastily stepped forward to appease her. Chu Sitong just talked about the process of the kidnappers kidnapping her, and his already pale face was as ugly as a layer of white paint.

Zheng Shuo quietly observed Chu Yan while listening to Chu Sitong's intermittent description.He went back to discuss with Director Liu in the morning. The City Bureau had set up a task force on the Lost Empire, and Lin Xun was in charge with him.And temporarily opened the level authority for him, he can check all the information and details of the 718 special anti-drug case that year.

Because Chu Sitong's statement has not yet been recorded, the criminal investigation work can only start with technology.Comparing the fingerprints and footprints at the scene of the crime, together with the confessions of the surrounding neighbors, it has been confirmed that this dilapidated apartment has been unoccupied for more than two years.The landlord's family immigrated abroad, and the house was not sold, so they just let it go and waited for the government to demolish it.After all, this is the last piece of the old city in the city center, and the calls for demolition have been getting louder and louder in recent years. Everyone knows that once it is demolished, it can make a lot of money.

The forensic doctor also reported preliminary autopsy results. The deceased had a high concentration of yellow powder in his body, which was enough to cause strong hallucinations.This drug has a special structure and appeared in Nanjiang City 13 years ago.Due to its excessively expensive price and extraordinary "experience", coupled with the strict requirements on the supply chain and the source of customers, it is only circulated among some people.The current Bureau Liu—the former Team Liu led the anti-drug brothers, and it took nearly a year to infiltrate and solve this major case.

"So the kidnapper wants to extort 200 million ransom, but none of you have received a call from the kidnapper?" Lin Xun's voice interrupted Zheng Shuo's thinking, and Chu Yan nodded: "Because there is something wrong with work, so the two days I haven’t even been home. Kwang Hyuk—the elder brother went to the United States last week to discuss business, and he hasn’t come back yet. I also checked with the housekeeper and the secretaries, and I really didn’t receive any suspicious calls from strangers.”

Zheng Shuo glanced at Chu Yan. When he mentioned Chu Guanghe, he instinctively called him by his name, but he didn't know if the police were there, so he immediately changed his name to Big Brother.

Lin Xun frowned and thought for a few seconds, then continued to ask Chu Sitong: "Why didn't the housekeeper contact anyone when you didn't go back all night?"

"Me, I often stay at my classmate's house because I do my homework. I have a very good friend, whom my second brother also knows, named Li Xiaoyin." Chu Sitong clasped her hands on the quilt, tense Knead like a twist.Lin Xun let out a "huh": "So the steward thought you just didn't go back as usual, so he didn't pay attention to it. Can you provide Li Xiaoyin's contact information and home address? We need to arrange someone to confirm."

"Officer, what do you want to confirm? Her kidnapping has nothing to do with her. I didn't go to her house yesterday. I was arrested on the way back to my own house..." Chu Sitong heard this with an uneasy expression on her face. Shi Shi suddenly raised his head and looked at Lin Xun nervously.

"Don't be afraid, we have to investigate all the clues related to the case first. How about this, you should have a good rest first, this will be the case for today, and we will contact you later if necessary."
