Criminal Investigation Notes

It was already late at night, and the moon and stars were scarce in the sky. Lu Junchi walked quickly into an old residential area near Wanhu City.

Although this is also within the scope of Wanhu City, the environment is better than those unfinished buildings and shantytowns, but the streets are still a bit narrow, the houses are old, and the lighting is mediocre. At least the air no longer has that decaying smell floating in it. .

As soon as Lu Junchi walked into the corridor, he saw Su Hui standing against the wall.

The corridor was dark. Su Hui was leaning against the wall with a cane in his hand. When he saw someone coming in, he raised his eyes.

Lu Junchi saw him and nodded slightly at him.

They hadn't seen each other for only a few hours, and they hadn't stopped calling and contacting each other, but it wasn't until Lu Junchi saw Su Hui that his heart fell.

The lights in the corridors were broken several floors.The two took the time to go upstairs, Lu Junchi took off a coat hanging in his arms: "It's a bit cold tonight, I just brought it for you from the car."

At night in Wanhu City, the night dew was very heavy. Even if Su Hui spent most of his time in the car, his trousers would inevitably get wet. His jacket was very thin and he had a low fever. Bring a piece of clothing.

"Aren't you... not cold?" Su Hui looked at Lu Junchi. He didn't have much clothes on, and he had been on his way at night.

Lu Junchi said: "I wear less clothes, and I won't catch a cold. But you... don't get sick."

Only then did Su Hui take the clothes from his hand and put them on.

The clothes were bigger than he usually wore. He buried his face in the collar and felt warmer immediately. He asked Lu Junchi, "Which floor is it on?"

Lu Junchi said: "Room 302, the criminal police from the sub-bureau should already be there."

Now, Tao Yingxu's body has been transported back to the General Bureau. The criminal police from the Wanhu Police Station have negotiated with the family members and signed a signature for the autopsy.

They took the time to go upstairs, and when Lu Junchi and Su Hui walked inside, there were still two criminal policemen in the room, and only Tao Yingxu's mother, Wang Yaxiu, was at home.

Seeing them coming, the two criminal policemen gave up chairs for them to sit on.

Su Hui sat opposite Wang Yaxiu, and Lu Junchi also sat down with the help of the table. After running all night, his legs were swollen with soreness.

Su Hui looked at the person in front of him. It was a middle-aged woman in her 40s, her hands were covered with calluses, and she looked honest and honest.

She had just experienced the pain of bereavement, with tears in the corners of her eyes, and said vaguely: "...the only new mobile phone in our family is for the child. I haven't seen what the live broadcast is... this matter What's going on..."

Lu Junchi said: "Auntie, we are also investigating, and someone will explain the whole process to you later."

Wang Yaxiu lowered her head and cried uncontrollably, still muttering in her mouth: "The child's father passed away early. I never thought that such a thing would happen... Comrade policeman, I... I don't know why my son would bring up that Things, this can't be organized by my son... Is there something wrong?"

Because of work, Lu Junchi has seen too many people who lost their loved ones. Wang Yaxiu is relatively stable in mood, has clear rules, and is very reasonable.

Lu Junchi felt a little sympathetic to her, and hurriedly comforted her: "My condolences, we are still verifying the truth about tonight. We are also trying to find the murderer of your son. Time is running out, I want to ask, Tao Yingxu Has there been any abnormal behavior recently, or has it mentioned anything to you?"

Wang Yaxiu shook her head and wiped her tears with a tissue: "He never told me that he always likes to participate in various social activities, some of which are helping friends and some helping teachers. As for this matter... even if I know I won't let him do this kind of thing..."

Lu Junchi did not give up, and continued to ask: "Auntie, I would like to ask if Tao Yingxu has any relatives or friends. He is a boy, under 20 years old, and looks about the same height as him. The two have a good relationship and often get together... "

If Tao Yingxu really had such a person in his life, his mother might know about it.

Su Hui also turned to her silently, hoping that she could give some clues that would be beneficial to the investigation.

"Such a person..." Wang Yaxiu lowered her head, thinking.Then she raised her head and said, "There is such a person, he... Is Yingxu's death related to him?"

But then she shook her head again: "No...impossible, my family Yingxu has such a good relationship with him, and I almost treat him like my own son. It is impossible for him to do such a thing..."

Hearing what she said, Lu Junchi had a premonition in his heart. The person she was talking about might be the murderer of Tao Yingxu. As the saying goes, knowing people, knowing their faces, but not their hearts, is the person who thinks it is impossible to commit murder and arson. , makes it more difficult to guard against.

He quickly asked: "Auntie, don't worry, please tell me what his name is, and we will check it immediately."

"He, his name is Qin Ange, he is the son of my former client... The two of them have a very good relationship... We have known each other since we were young... Later Qin Ange moved here, and Yingxu often went to him, almost every day after school past……"

After listening to the description, Lu Junchi looked at Su Hui. The two of them looked at each other for a moment. Su Hui nodded slightly, which sounded like his profile.

Lu Junchi continued to ask: "Aunt Wang, please explain the relevant situation carefully."

Wang Yaxiu was still a little emotional: "Qin Ange...he is different from us aborigines. He came here because of his family. I used to work as a nanny for a rich family, and Qin Ange belonged to that family. Son, their family used to run a construction company, so they are very rich."

Lu Junchi frowned and asked, "Which one is it?"

"His father's name is Qin Chengsheng, that's...Dingsheng Wanjia International, it turned out to be his family, Boss Qin... He also went out from this Wanhu City in the earliest days, worked as a worker on the construction site, and became a worker bit by bit. He became a contractor, and then started recruiting and starting a construction company. He had been busy with his career before, and he only had a son in his 30s."

Lu Junchi didn't know many construction companies, but he knew about this one.Just now they have been rushing around in that unfinished building, and these words are posted on the door of every building...

With so many buildings, from those signs, you can know the prosperity of this company in its heyday, but the sudden stop of all projects overnight also heralds the fall of that dynasty.

He knew that there was another reason for this developer, which was that the construction company had a bad reputation, poor construction quality, delayed project payments, many problems on the construction site, and delayed delivery...

In the end, the entire group's capital chain was broken, and all projects were forced to stop. Their boss was cornered by debt collectors, suffered a heart attack, and passed away suddenly.

There are many versions of this story, and Lu Junchi never imagined that today he would meet the witnesses in these stories.

Wang Yaxiu cried again at this point: "However, I still think it is impossible for Qin Ange to do it. The two of them have a very good relationship. Yingxu often gives them the dumplings I made, and the fruit. I think about him for every good thing... The school issued an extra movie ticket, and they all want to drag Qin Ange there. People's hearts are fleshy, Yingxu treats him so well, I...I don't believe that he killed Yingxu .”

Su Hui listened quietly from the side. This was an expression of intimacy between the children, but Tao Yingxu initiated these things. The relationship between the two children may not be that close.

Lu Junchi continued to ask, "Is there another girl beside Qin Ange?"

"Yes, it's the girl adopted by the Qin family. Her name is Li Xiaonan. It was a construction site accident. Her father was killed by a falling object, leaving the girl an orphan. Boss Qin felt sorry for her at that time, so he He adopted the girl. He placed the girl near here, and the house was written under the girl's name, and she was allowed to study in Wanhu No. [-] Middle School. Later, something happened to the Qin family, and Boss Qin had a heart attack. Qin Ange and his My mother moved here too."

It was precisely because the property was in the girl's name that it was not confiscated by the bank. After the Qin family went bankrupt, they also had a place to live.

Boss Qin's actions back then unintentionally left a way out for his family.

An object fell from a height and killed a construction worker, which coincided with Long Xiaochen's previous investigation results.

Lu Junchi hurriedly sent these two names to the group, and asked Qu Ming and the others to check. He then asked Wang Yaxiu: "Then do you have the contact information of Qin Ange and Li Xiaonan?"

Wang Yaxiu gave him his mobile phone number.

Lu Junchi tried to dial, but both numbers were turned off.

Wang Yaxiu wanted to show them the way: "They lived in 504, Unit [-] before."

Lu Junchi asked Wang Yaxiu some other things, but she couldn't say anything more.

He checked the time, it was already 10:[-], and the next live broadcast was only [-] minutes away.

After instructing the two criminal police officers to continue to understand the situation with Wang Yaxiu and calm her down, Lu Junchi pulled Su Hui out and walked to the 504 next door.

Now that it was late at night, Su Hui couldn't see the way clearly, and walked a little slowly. Lu Junchi suddenly turned around, grabbed his hand, and pulled him forward.

In the cold night, Lu Junchi's hands were warm, and his steps were fast and steady.

Su Hui didn't even care about using his cane, so he just kept pulling him into the second unit next to him, and buried his chin even lower.

In the past, even if Su Hui was leaning on the ground with a cane, he would always worry that the road would be uneven, but now he was pulled by Lu Junchi, walking fast, everything in front of him was blurry, but his heart was at ease.

The fifth floor arrived soon, and Su Hui finally realized: "Do we have to call someone to unlock the lock?"

Lu Junchi said, "No, special circumstances, special solutions."

As he spoke, he identified the keyhole. Naturally, the old-fashioned residential building cannot be a high-end lock.

Lu Junchi took out a small tool box from his pocket, picked out a piece of iron wire inside, and inserted the wire into the keyhole. Within half a minute, he heard a click, and the lock opened in response.

Su Hui looked at him with admiration: "I didn't expect you to hide this hidden skill..."

Lu Junchi said: "I have specially learned that every time I take an action, I have to be able to pick the lock. This efficiency is really too low."

Time is tight tonight, and they don't even have time to apply for a search warrant and go through the search procedures, so they can only do special things.

The inside of the house was dark, and Lu Junchi pressed the light. This is an old-style apartment with two rooms, almost no living room, and not much furniture in the room. There is a big bed in one room, and a small bed in the other room. bed.

Lu Junchi took a closer look, and there were some girls' clothes in the big room.It may be that Qin Ange's mother lived with Li Xiaonan before.

The small room seemed relatively independent and quiet. They walked into the small room. There was a desk in the room, and a desktop computer and a notebook were placed beside it.

Although the room is very dilapidated, there are some things in it, which can be vaguely seen to be expensive brand-name products.

There is a basketball on the closet, with some signatures in foreign languages ​​on it.Near the window sill, there is an astronomical telescope, which is already full of dust at this time.There are some clothes piled on the chair, and there are also some name tags inside.

Lu Junchi suddenly noticed that there were several photo frames on the table, which looked like a group photo of a family.

There is a photo frame in it, which is a group photo of two boys.One of them was Tao Yingxu, and the other was a boy of similar age, probably Qin Ange.

At that time, the children were still young, as if they were only in elementary school.

It seemed that the two had been friends for many years.

The height and build of the two children are about the same. In the photo, Tao Yingxu has the red birthmark on his forehead, and his eyes are bent when he smiles. The boy beside him also has delicate features and is smiling happily.

Su Hui thought, over the years, as the two people got older and their identities changed, their relationship might have changed... The biggest change should be Qin Ange's status gap, a rich second child who is loved by his parents In the present day, his family suddenly went bankrupt, and he fell from a height.

He reached out to open the laptop. There was no password set for the commonly used interface of the computer, so he could enter directly.

Su Hui rummaged through it, and from the latest opened records, he could identify that those were interview videos from a documentary filming.Sure enough, they selected the victims based on the materials in those films.

Lu Junchi searched for a while, and his eyes fell on a pocketbook beside him.

Opening the notebook, there were some news clipped from newspapers inside, Lu Junchi frowned and looked at it.

Su Hui couldn't help but ask him, what was written on it?

Lu Junchi said in a deep voice, "It's negative news about Dingsheng Wanjia International."

That book was pasted into a thick one, enough to show the amount of negative news.The stickers are neatly pasted, and the newspapers from earlier years have all turned yellow. It is conceivable that they have been searching for and accumulating for a long time.

Su Hui leaned back on a chair beside him: "Does it have something to do with those three people?"

Lu Junchi quickly confirmed: "The news reports mostly mentioned that the construction site was not in compliance with the regulations, which caused the death of workers, the forced demolition caused people to be disabled, and the construction materials were not in compliance with the regulations."

Su Hui recalled carefully: "That corresponds to what Long Xiaochen, Lian Chengyan and that Xuehai did. He thinks these things should not be blamed on his father."

The three of them suddenly intersected. They had all cooperated with Dingsheng Wanjia before, but they were not connected because the time and length of cooperation were different.Dingsheng Wanjia has too many partners, covering almost half of Huadu's construction industry.Now that they have learned some of the situation, it is much easier to infer the connection in reverse.

Lu Junchi flipped through the pages and said, "There are so many media news, and the press releases are similar, which may be abnormal."

He believes that Dingsheng Wanjia may have made a serious mistake, but even if the general media writes a press release, there will be some differences in wording and sentence construction.

The press releases of many media are almost the same, covering one incident overwhelmingly, so it is likely that when Dingsheng Wanjia made a mistake, the media collected dirty money from competitors, with the purpose of destroying the company.

Su Hui shook the cane in his hand and said, "If the murderer is Qin Ange, his next target should be what he thinks is the one who caused the collapse of Dingsheng Wanjia."

Lu Junchi turned his head and thought for a while: "After Dingsheng Wanjia collapsed, the most famous real estate company in Huadu became Zhongshan International..."

Although he didn't read much gossip, he also heard that Zhongshan International was able to start so quickly because it swallowed the corpse of Dingsheng Wanjia.

After the accident of Dingsheng Wanjia, many partners of Dingsheng Wanjia directly turned their backs, and buyers who originally planned to buy houses in Dingsheng Wanjia also chose Zhongshan International.

Mu Zhenyuan, the boss of Zhongshan International, used to be an executive of Dingsheng Wanjia. The two of them worked hard together for many years as people who both came out of Wanhu City.Later, the two disagreed with each other and parted ways a few years ago.

Compared with the notorious Dingsheng Wanjia, Zhongshan International is a well-known and conscientious developer. The specifications and quality of the houses it builds are very famous. In just a few years, it surpassed the momentum of Dingsheng Wanjia and became the number one developer in Huadu. .

Qin Ange, as Qin Chengsheng's son, naturally believed that the decline of his company was related to the rise of Mu Zhenyuan. He might even have discovered something and believed that Mu Zhenyuan caused the current situation.

This is indeed a revenge.

Those children were treated as innocent pawns.

Lu Junchi flipped through the notebook again, and was even more sure: "The news of Zhongshan International is also collected in the back of the notebook, and the last news is the news that Zhongshan International is about to cooperate and go public."

Su Hui said calmly, "If the murderer is Qin Ange, his next target is likely to be Mu Zhenyuan."

Su Hui can confirm one thing, the last person must be the more important target in the suspect's mind.

Just like when eating, some people will taste their favorite dishes until the end.

Up to now, more and more clues have finally been connected.

Lu Junchi seized the time and sent the information to the group, and they had to start making various preparations in advance.

No matter whether Mu Zhenyuan has done something or not, as the person in charge of a listed company, if he is named, he must come out to the media and respond.
