After Redemption of Paranoid Protagonist [Transmigration Book]

When Tong Lei shook hands with him, he gradually remembered the conversation they had before he accidentally fell asleep, and asked, "Are you sure the murderer is Zheng Anqiu?"

The reason why he cooperated with the investigation this morning was because these people detected the genetic information belonging to another person in the old blood stains on the clothes of the deceased, so the people who were at the scene at that time made another collective registration.

The final result was unexpected. The genetic information did not belong to anyone who was tested, but coincided with Zheng Anqiu who was being searched and rescued by the police.

The result is almost clear at a glance, Officer Zhang said: "The test report can basically prove it."

Tong Lei motioned for the others to go first, and he took Officer Zhang to the side for a few steps, and said in a low voice:

"Officer Zhang, you also know that Zheng Anqiu has some relationship with our family. If I don't understand this matter clearly, I always feel uneasy. Can you trouble me and find out what's going on?"

"What if Zheng Anqiu killed those people? It should have been nearly 20 years. Has no one reported the case to find the deceased?"

After all, Tong Lei is a respectable person, and he has been cooperating with the investigation, so he can trust that the case has reached this point, and there is nothing to hide. He said, "Do you still remember the factory fire case?"

Tong Lei said: "I am deeply impressed."

Police Officer Zhang said: "Actually, the deceased who was discovered later this time was the perpetrator of the woman abduction case involved in the factory fire—the only one who escaped."

The abduction case was solved back then, except for one person who escaped with his family, all the remaining suspects were arrested.After so many years, the police did not find the whereabouts of one of the masterminds, and thought that he had successfully smuggled abroad, or had died long ago.

It turned out that I was half right, the death was really dead, but it was not because of my age.

Not far from where he once committed the crime, the mastermind, together with all his family members, died under the hands of Zheng Anqiu, who was still teaching at the university at the time, and the stolen money he carried was also missing.

No wonder the police failed to catch him at all the checkpoints, because he never got out alive.

Tong Lei remembered hearing from his father that Zheng Anqiu resigned from his post as a university teacher when he was about 34 or five years old, and opened an art school.

When the news of Shao Yulin's hidden marriage was just exposed, Zheng Anqiu's experience was also revealed. Many people thought that he relied on the soft food of the movie queen to get his start-up capital.

Tong Lei knew that with his mother's personality, it was impossible to provide funds to Zheng Anqiu so generously, but he hadn't delved into this matter, and thinking about the source of the money now is simply creepy.

He was young and rich, and his life went smoothly. He had originally developed a tough temper that was not afraid of anything, and he didn't even have deep thoughts about death, ghosts and gods. Zheng Anqiu was the first person that Tong Lei met close by to the murderer.

The fire from the dream just now blazed up in my mind.

"It's incredible." He nodded at Officer Zhang and said, "Thank you for letting me know."

"Please don't spread the word."

"Don't worry." Tong Lei said, "But I probably have to mention it to my father."

He had a meal with several policemen, but he was always eager to see his father, as if this was the only way to eliminate the shadow of the nightmare.

After finally eating and returning to the company, Tong Lei asked the secretary what Tong Haisheng was doing, and the other party said that Mr. Tong was taking a lunch break.

Tong Haisheng has always had this habit. He has a heavy workload and has paid great attention to maintenance since he got old. If there are no other accidents, he will take a nap.

There was a bed in the inner room of his office. After Tong Haisheng slept in his clothes, he had the same dream as Tong Lei.

He dreamed that it was more than two months before Tong Jun's college entrance examination. On the child's birthday, he deliberately pushed everything away, and returned home early with Tong Lei, preparing to celebrate his youngest son.

Cakes, drinks, and dishes, they prepared everything, but they didn't expect to be greeted first with a shocking explosion and a burst of flames.

Tong Lei was closer to the explosion point. When realizing the disaster, Tong Haisheng's first reaction was to protect the eldest son.

But the eruption was too violent and the flames were too strong, so that there was no room for the two father and son to escape.

When he was dying of consciousness, Tong Haisheng vaguely heard someone outside shouting "Dad" and "Brother". He didn't know if it was his hallucination, but he tried to hear it, but the crackling sound of burning around him had covered everything up.

Consciousness gradually blurred, it turned out that this is death.

At this moment, the pain of the burning body faded away, and the heartache was more obvious.

He is old and has lived enough in this life, so it doesn't matter.But Tong Haisheng felt sorry for the eldest son who would die so regretfully and miserably at such a young age, and also felt sorry for the younger son who had not yet fully grown up and established a career, so he had to bear such pain.

The younger child in the family is always inevitably spoiled. Tong Jun is cheerful and kind, but he also has the faults of a young master.

Tong Haisheng didn't care about these things, he thought that his father could always support the child, and if his father and brother were gone, only Tong Jun would be left, how would he live?

He held Tong Lei's hand tightly. He wanted to see Tong Jun very much at this moment, but he also hoped that the rescuers outside would hold him down and don't put him in danger.

Don't cry, don't be sad, father and brother, we all hope that you can live a good life, baby.

……

Maybe he didn't sleep for too long, Tong Haisheng woke up from the dream, only felt cold sweat, heart palpitations, as if reborn.

However, everything in that weird dream was still so vivid after he woke up, and even the details of the scene inside were clearly remembered.

Obviously, many situations in the dream were different, for example, they lived in a detached villa now, but in the dream they lived in a high-end community in the city center.

Moreover, Tong Jun's 18th birthday was not his turn as a father to intervene, it was spent by Shao Yulin's side.

But everything is so clear, as if rooted in his memory.

Tong Haisheng sat by the bed, unable to break free from that emotion for a long time.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door of his office.

Before the secretary reminded him to end the break, Tong Haisheng raised his head, and before he could say "Come in", the door had already been pushed open, and the person standing outside was Tong Lei.

Seeing his son's vigorous, young face full of vitality now, Tong Haisheng felt a little astringent in his heart for a moment.

He used a pause to ease his emotions a little, and asked, "Why did this happen?"

Tong Lei said, "Dad."

After he grew up, he seldom used such childish titles: "I had a dream just now, in which we all died in a fire, leaving only my younger brother."

Tong Lei said: "I dreamed that you were holding me tightly, and I also dreamed that my younger brother lived alone, couldn't eat well, couldn't dress well, and was bullied by others..."

Tong Haisheng's eyes turned hot, but at the same time he was very surprised, and asked, "Are you dreaming too?"

Tong Lei looked at him in surprise, and Tong Haisheng said, "I also dreamed about it when I was taking a nap just now."

Tong Lei said: "Is there such a thing?"

He just focused on calming down, and didn't think carefully about the unusual reality of the dream, but when he heard Tong Haisheng's words suddenly, Tong Lei felt like he was listening to ghost stories when he was a child, and a chill came out of his heart.

"This dream...how can two people have the same dream, and it has nothing to do with reality." Tong Lei said, "There will be no omen."

He said he was talking nonsense, but after he finished speaking, he suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart, and quickly pouted himself in his heart, thinking: "My cheap mouth."

"Xiao Lei." Tong Haisheng stood up, squeezed Tong Lei's shoulders, straightened his collar, and smiled, "Let Dad see you."

Tong Lei's heart was warmed by these words, and he felt a little unspeakable melancholy. He stood in front of Tong Haisheng and let him look at him carefully.

"By the way, Dad." Tong Lei's mood gradually calmed down, and he remembered something again, and said to Tong Haisheng, "The investigation by the police is over. Let me tell you, you will never think of who did it in this case."

Tong Haisheng said "Oh": "This kind of old case, the murderer was found so quickly?"

Tong Lei told Tong Haisheng the whole thing.

Tong Haisheng was surprised at first, but after a while, he suddenly asked again: "But Zheng Anqiu hasn't been found until now?"

Tong Lei was reminded by him, and he also thought of this matter: "Yes, he is really a dangerous person. He must have run away because he was afraid of being discovered because he saw that the Gao family was going to develop the land!"

The uneasiness brought about by the nightmare just now became clearer now. Tong Haisheng fumbled for his mobile phone by the pillow while telling Tong Lei, "Call your brother and ask him what he is doing. Let him be fine." Be careful when you do."

Tong Lei let out an "oh" and dialed Tong Jun's phone number. Before the signal was over, Tong Haisheng's cell phone rang like a reminder.

He picked it up and saw that the caller was Yuan Tuo.

Tong Haisheng picked it up.

On the other end of the phone, Yuan Tuo's voice was very clear, not only Tong Haisheng, but even Tong Lei who was calling Tong Jun next to him could hear what he said clearly.

After Yuan Tuo told them about Tong Jun's kidnapping, Tong Lei's face turned pale instantly.

Immediately, he saw Tong Haisheng's hands trembling, and hurriedly took a Qingxin pill from the drawer next to him.

After watching his father swallow the medicine, Tong Lei looked at the bottle, stuffed one for himself, stood still for a moment, and then began to quickly search for useful people in the address book.

Yuan Tuo said: "...His mobile phone is here with me now, and the last broadcast number on it is the empty number used by Zheng Anqiu before. I suspect that the kidnapping this time is related to him, but I don't know his purpose yet... "

Yuan Tuo didn't know, but Tong Haisheng understood it all at once.

He was extremely annoyed, and he never expected that his insistence on calling the police after discovering the bones would expose Zheng Anqiu, who was already planning to flee to death, to expose his crimes, which in turn resulted in Tong Jun being kidnapped.

He blamed himself and worried about his younger son, and pressed his throbbing temples with his hands.

Yuan Tuo said: "Uncle Tong, don't be too anxious, I'm trying to figure out a way, and I will definitely rescue him properly."

Tong Haisheng only thought that Yuan Tuo was comforting him, collected himself, gestured to Tong Lei, and said to Yuan Tuo, "I know what's going on with Zheng Anqiu, and now I will call the police immediately. Xiao Tuo, you bring Jun Come over with Jun's mobile phone."

He briefly told Yuan Tuo about Zheng Anqiu's situation, and said again: "He is the kind of person who is insane, absolutely cannot be trusted, this matter must cooperate with the police."

Tong Haisheng is used to big winds and waves, and knows how to deal with them better.

Family members of kidnapping cases often dare not report to the police, expecting to pay the ransom to get them back safely. In fact, this kind of thinking is very naive. Unless professional kidnappers make a living by asking for ransom, most of the rest / Nine Metropolis tear up votes.

Therefore, they must seize the gap period when the kidnappers just took the person away, but they have not been able to make or meet the requirements.

Tong Haisheng's heart was on fire, but he knew that if he showed panic, the children would become even more nervous. At this time, he must not let himself be confused.

But he didn't expect Yuan Tuo to be more capable. He heard the words and said, "Uncle Tong, I also contacted some people to help me not long ago, and their contact information will be sent to you later. But it's inconvenient for me to go there now. I found out the general path of the kidnapper and am chasing him."

Tong Haisheng was taken aback when he heard that: "Are you yourself?"

Yuan Tuo said: "Well, it's too late to wait for others to come over, I'm afraid of losing them. Uncle Tong, I will keep posting the location and let the police follow my route to find someone. But don't let Zheng Anqiu notice .”

In Tong Haisheng's heart, Yuan Tuo was still a child, and he didn't expect the other party to help him at all. Hearing what a good guy, this kid went after the kidnapper alone, and he was too courageous.

"Don't mess around, why are you chasing him alone?"

Tong Haisheng quickly said: "I will find a way to find someone, you come back first!"

In the current situation, every second of time passed, Yuan Tuo felt that his heart was burning on the flames. He had to see Tong Jun as soon as possible, even if Tong Jun's relatives persuaded him to be useless.

He said, "Don't worry, I have a measure," and hung up the phone.

Immediately, Tong Haisheng received a WeChat location on his phone.

Tong Lei had just contacted the police, and when he saw the situation, he called Yuan Tuo again, but he didn't answer even two calls.

Tong Lei said: "Dad, don't try to persuade him, he won't listen. I have already contacted the police, so I will provide them with the location. Let's chase after him as soon as possible."

After Tong Haisheng hung up the phone, the stamina after receiving the news was so strong that his hands were shaking, but he didn't dare to delay for a minute.

"Let a group of people go after him first. Zheng Anqiu may call at any time to ask for conditions. We must try our best to buy time with him."

Tong Haisheng said: "I'll arrange the rest, you go to your mother now, it's best to have someone call Zheng Anqiu's son and let them come together."

Tong Lei was startled for a moment, and then understood that they didn't know what kind of request Zheng Anqiu would make. Shao Yulin and Zheng Shuo were both his relatives, and they might come in handy at a critical moment.

He said "Okay", picked up the car keys, turned around and left, and almost ran as soon as he got out the door.

"This time neither brother nor father left you." He said in his heart, "Don't have any trouble, brother."

Tong Lei was afraid that he would be restless, so he asked the driver to drive, and called the secretary on the way, and asked her to take someone to find Zheng Shuo, even if he was delayed, he would be dragged here.

Shao Yulin's side has always been difficult to deal with. Tong Lei went to the hospital in person, hurriedly pushed open the door of the ward, and shocked Shao Yulin who was lying on the bed and staring at the ceiling.

This new year is the bleakest Shao Yulin has ever experienced. There are no patients in the hospital, and no family members come to visit her. After being frightened, I didn't dare anymore.

So even though she was not close to Tong Lei, Shao Yulin felt a little happy to see him come to visit her.

She asked, "Xiao Lei, why did you remember this?"

Tong Lei was not in the mood to answer her question, and started with a sentence: "Junjun was kidnapped by Zheng Anqiu, and I need your cooperation."

Shao Yulin was shocked: "What did you say, Zheng Anqiu found it?"

Seeing that the first question she asked was not about Tong Jun's situation, Tong Lei felt even more unhappy, and said coldly, "I'll tell you on the way, don't dawdle, get up and go with me."

Shao Yulin said: "No, wait a minute, why did Zheng Anqiu kidnap Juanjun? Who is he? He..."

"Shao Yulin."

All her words were interrupted by Tong Lei with a cold tone.

Tong Lei stared at Shao Yulin, and said seriously: "I hope that no matter what the situation is, wherever it is useful to you, you will actively cooperate. Let me tell you, if anything happens to Juanjun because of you, I will never forget it in my life." Don't want to see you anymore."

Shocked by the look in his eyes, Shao Yulin swallowed all the questions in her stomach, and was dragged into the car by Tong Lei limping.

By the time they arrived, the first batch of police officers had already followed the location sent by Yuan Tuo. At the same time, for multiple protections, they also dispersed their manpower to check for suspicious persons in the surrounding area.

It's just that Zheng Anqiu had already taken Tong Jun away for several hours at this time, and after entering the mountain, the signal from Yuan Tuo's side was also up and down, so no matter how anxious they were, this work had to take a certain amount of time.

On Tong Jun's side, the car finally stopped.

The car finally stopped. It had been shaken for a long time. Even though it was still, it still made people feel dizzy as if they were lying on a big wave.

Zheng Anqiu got off the driver's seat, opened the door of the back seat, and then met Tong Jun's gaze quietly looking at him.

At this time, the camouflage on his face has been removed, and what is exposed is his true face.

"Hello." Zheng Anqiu raised his eyebrows and greeted Tong Jun happily, "Jun Jun, we must not have seen each other for a few months."

"Yes, Uncle Zheng."

Tong Jun simply calmed down: "When you disappeared for a while, we all thought you were dead. We didn't expect to have a chance to meet again."

He was carried down by two people in the car behind him. The snow was covered under his feet, and some withered grass was buried in the snow. Even the temperature seemed to be several degrees lower than that in the city, and he should have reached the top of the mountain.

There are many trees growing around, and in front of it is a small yard similar to the one where the mountain guards lived when they closed the mountain for fire prevention, but it has been abandoned now.

Tong Jun was not paid to live in a room, and was thrown into a warehouse in the corner of the yard.

"You're getting sharper and sharper."

Zheng Anqiu signaled everyone else to go out, stood in front of Tong Jun who was sitting on the ground with his hands and feet bound, and looked down at him condescendingly:

"You have changed a lot since you left your mother's side, which makes uncle feel very strange. But don't worry, I won't make it difficult for you. If your father is willing to meet my request quickly, you don't have to stay here for too long. "

Tong Jun said: "He quickly satisfied your request, and the effect is probably to make me die faster."

Zheng Anqiu smiled, he always had such a sinister smile on his face, which made people very angry: "You child, do you think I will kill someone?"

"Didn't you kill them?" Tong Jun followed him with a smile, "Didn't those people die at your hands as early as 20 years ago?"

After saying this, the surrounding air seemed to freeze into ice.

Zheng Anqiu suddenly bent down/body up, pinched Tong Jun's neck with one hand, forcing him to raise his head.

"What do you know?"

In such a cold weather, Tong Juan's palms were covered with cold sweat, but he tried to remain calm: "Uncle Zheng, it's actually not difficult to guess."

He said slowly: "You have lived well here for so many years, you have a family and a business, and you suddenly collected a lot of money and ran away. Something must have happened that made you have to do this."

"I ran away. No one could find you for so many days, but you threw yourself into a trap and came back to catch me. I guess Uncle Zheng didn't want to leave because he liked me too much, but because another accident happened. I didn't Are you wrong?"

Tong Jun ignored Zheng Anqiu's increasingly sullen eyes, and said all the inferences he had thought up in the car in one breath:

"So what happened to these two joints? First, Gao's family decided to renovate two abandoned factories. The factory caught fire, and Gao Qing was almost killed. Second, in the abandoned shanty house behind the factory, another Several bodies."

Tong Jun said: "So I think that you are simply afraid that those corpses will be found. You originally wanted to prevent the development of this land by burning the factory, and then took the opportunity to escape, but I didn't expect my dad and the Gao family to build a resort. , dug up the body for the second time and called the police——Uncle Zheng, this old murder case has something to do with you, right?"

Zheng Anqiu had a pensive look on his face, he increased the strength in his hands, raised Tong Jun's face a little, and looked at him carefully.

Tong Jun dodged for a while, but instead of dodging, he simply raised his head and let Zheng Anqiu look at him.

The moment Tong Jun saw Zheng Anqiu's real face, he realized that from the moment he started doing it, he had no intention of letting himself go away alive.However, since Zheng Anqiu's request was not met, his safety was temporarily guaranteed.

Since this is the case, it has nothing to do with his attitude towards Zheng Anqiu, so it's better to say that there are some things that are entangled for two lifetimes, and he really wants to know.

Zheng Anqiu pinched Tong Jun's face and looked at it for a while, and Tong Jun also looked at him closely, and that familiar feeling came back again.

He suddenly felt that when he was very young, there seemed to be such a time, in a bedroom where there was no one else, he was lying on the floor playing puzzles, and Zheng Anqiu came in.

He approached him step by step, lifted himself up from the ground, and pinched his face in the same way with his neck stuck, and looked at it carefully.

Tong Jun suddenly felt a strong nausea, this emotion must have come from his eyes, Zheng Anqiu suddenly let him go, and patted his cheek.

"That's right, it's like you to be so obedient. I was really not used to it just now."

Zheng Anqiu said: "Don't blame uncle, it was your father who meddled in his own business and called the police. Obviously we can get along peacefully, can't we?"

His words basically admitted that there was no major problem with Tong Jun's guess.

Tong Jun could feel his body trembling slightly, not from fear, but from hatred for the person in front of him.

Finally the truth came out.

For so many years, day and night, he never stopped thinking about what happened to the fire, whether it was an accident or man-made.

He didn't understand, people always said that good will be rewarded with good and evil will be rewarded with evil, why his family members had to leave him in such a miserable way even though they had done nothing bad.

Now it's confirmed, it's all because of this person in front of him.

Whether in the book or in reality, Zheng Anqiu's crimes are real.

The difference is that in the real world, Zheng Anqiu first killed Shao Yulin who overheard his secret, and then murdered Tong Haisheng and Tong Lei who discovered the problem.

But this time, he failed to prevent the Tong family from reporting the crime in advance, so he got his hands on Tong Jun.

Tong Jun stared at Zheng Anqiu, thinking nervously in his heart, if he could rush forward at this time, it doesn't matter even if his hands are tied, he can bite the opponent's throat and watch his blood dry.

"Are you afraid?" Zheng Anqiu asked.

Tong Jun lowered his eyes slowly, and said flatly, "When death is imminent, no one is afraid."

Zheng Anqiu smiled slowly: "Then do you know why I killed those people?"

"It was also winter that year. In order to have the opportunity to participate in a competition recommended by the school, I went outside to find inspiration for sketching. I passed by such a village, and there were still people in the village at that time."

Zheng Anqiu said: "A family in their village moved out, and the yard was empty, so I made do with it. I slept in until midnight, and a family of five came over, three men and two women, and said they wanted to stay here for a night too. , to squeeze with me."

No matter how long the incident has passed, Zheng Anqiu can still clearly recall every scene when he told Tong Jun about it.

20 years ago, the transportation was not so developed, and the process of urbanization had not yet fully advanced. It is not an exaggeration to say that the area is poor and remote.

He had just been squeezed out of a chance to be promoted because of an airborne soldier, and he was bullied and excluded everywhere at work, and he was not even rescheduled to go to the podium many times, so he had no choice but to come out to sketch in such weather.

When the family of five came to the door, looking at the little girl who was less than five years old in their arms, Zheng Anqiu never thought that he would be threatened with his life by such a seemingly ordinary family.

Until the couple was about to leave in the middle of the night, in order to prevent Zheng Anqiu from providing clues to the police, the two quietly came to his room.

But perhaps Zheng Anqiu's life was undeserving. When the two of them entered the room, he was catching the moon on a snowy night outside the yard.

Zheng Anqiu was dissatisfied after wasting several sheets of drawing paper in a row. If he could not succeed in this competition, then he would lose the chance to stand up.

Unable to find any inspiration, he anxiously picked up the drawing board and wanted to go back to the room, but when he was outside the door, he heard a slight voice in his own room.

It turned out that the man in this family was one of the masterminds of the woman abducting case a few days ago. They carried a huge amount of property with them. They had just escaped from the police and were going to kill him before leaving the province.
