Escape From the Library

【Death of a Lawyer-12】

In order to confirm their inference, Yue Xingwen and Jiang Pingce conducted an experiment.

The two took the elevator that had stopped on the first floor to the 1rd floor, waited for elevator No. 33 to go down, and then pressed the down button. As expected, elevator No. 1, which was closer and stopped on the 17th floor, came to pick them up.

The two took the elevator down to the first floor, and after about a minute, the No. 1 elevator returned to the 2th floor to stand by according to the set procedure.

When Yue Xingwen went out last night, he saw the No. 2 elevator stopped on the first floor, which meant that someone had just used this elevator to reach the lobby on the first floor within one minute before he went out.

Jiang Pingce and Yue Xingwen looked at each other and said, "I'll go to the security guard to monitor and see who went downstairs in the middle of the night last night."

The two came to the security room on the side of the hall side by side. Jiang Pingce took out his police officer ID from his pocket and said, "Hello, I am Jiang Pingce from the Criminal Police Team of Qingtang District. We are investigating a case. Please call yesterday's police officer." Around 24 o'clock in the evening, the surveillance in the apartment No. 2 elevator and lobby."

When the security guard saw the police officer's card, his attitude was very respectful. He immediately operated on the computer and called up the surveillance from last night.

Jiang Pingce and Yue Xingwen started watching at 23:30.

There were not many people in the apartment building late at night. At 23:33, two girls walked into the lobby carrying a bunch of shopping bags talking and laughing. They took elevator No. 1 to the 27th floor, and elevator No. 1 went back to the first floor.

No one appeared in the lobby until 23:57 when the No. 17 elevator stopped on the 2th floor suddenly started going up.

Jiang Pingce immediately became alert. He saw the elevator going up all the way and finally stopped on the 30th floor. A tall man in a black windbreaker held a briefcase in his left hand and a mobile phone in his right hand. He walked into the elevator while looking at his mobile phone with his head down.

The surveillance did not take a clear picture of his face, and he couldn't see clearly the side of the screen on the phoneⅰ

The elevator descended all the way to the first floor. The man stuffed his mobile phone back into his pocket and walked out of the elevator quickly. When he came to the door of the apartment, he took out an umbrella from his briefcase, walked out of the door with the umbrella in his hand, and disappeared into the surveillance.

At this time, elevator No. 2 stops at the first floor.

Immediately after it started to go up again, Yue Xingwen looked at the time displayed on the monitor - 24 o'clock, it was the time for him to go out.

Sure enough, the No. 2 elevator kept going up and stopped at the 33rd floor on the top floor. Yue Xingwen, Lan Yarong, and Lin Manluo walked in side by side. The three of them looked anxious, and rushed out of the door after arriving at the lobby.

That's why Yue Xingwen was on the top floor and saw the two elevators stop on the first floor.

Jiang Pingce looked at Yue Xingwen: "It's better for you to be careful, otherwise, we can give away the clues of Song┑舴升V碗."

Yue Xingwen said with a smile: "It's just that I have a better memory. At that time, I was anxious to wait for the elevator. I thought in my heart that it would be better if the elevator was closer. I also checked my watch. It took 1 minutes for the elevator to go from the 33st floor to the 2rd floor."

Jiang Pingce followed closely and said to the security guard: "Call out the surveillance camera in the corridor on the 30th floor."

The security guards coordinated to call out, Jiang Pingce tracked in the opposite direction, and soon found out that the man just came out of Room 3007.He took out the USB flash drive he brought from the police force, turned his head and said to the security guard, "Please copy all the surveillance from yesterday to me, and I will take it back to the criminal police brigade to study it carefully."

The security guard smiled all over his face: "Okay, no problem."

Jiang Pingce copied the surveillance camera and asked the security guard, "Do you have the information about the resident of Tanpalm 3007?"

The security guard said: "The 25th to 30th floors of this building are apartment hotels. If you want to check the information of the residents, you have to go to the front desk of the hotel! We only register the information of the fixed owners and tenants here, and the hotel guests change every day. have no idea."

Apartment hotels have become more popular in recent years. The 25th to 30th floors of Xinghe Apartment is a hotel called "X-New Concept". The two came to the front desk of the hotel and asked the staff on duty to get the list of guests who were in the hotel last night.

The resident of 3007 is Zhang Ronghua, 28 years old this year.

Yue Xingwen took Jiang Pingce back to the residence on the 33rd floor, opened the door and entered the room, and said: "Go to bed first, I will go back to Jinzuo Jiayuan and find everyone to investigate this person together."

Jiang Pingce said, "I'll go too..."

Yue Xingwen interrupted him: "Don't be brave, you haven't slept for more than 30 hours. Go to sleep now, recover your energy, maybe you will use your identity as a policeman to question a new suspect tomorrow."

Facing Shangyue Xingwen's undeniable eyes, Jiang Pingce couldn't help but slightly raised the corners of his mouth. He found that Xingwen was serious about taking care of his work and rest, especially like his "family".

Xingwen urged him to sleep, but Jiang Pingce dared not refuse, and said happily, "Okay, then I'll go to bed first, and don't stay up too late, you have to be back before three o'clock, do you hear me?"

Yue Xingwen nodded: "Well, I will try my best."

Jiang Pingce said: "Don't go there alone, I don't feel relieved to act alone in the middle of the night, let Qin Lu pick you up." After he finished speaking, he took out his mobile phone and sent Qin Lu a data: "@秦露, tilt left 50 degrees The distance is 115 meters, come and pick up Xingwen."

In the next second, Qin Lu teleported into the room, wondering, "What's wrong with Xing Wen?"

"Let's talk about it in the past." Yue Xingwen looked back at Jiang Pingce, and patiently told him: "There is shampoo and shower gel in the bathroom. If you don't mind, just use mine. You can sleep in my bed."

Jiang Pingce's eyes were gentle: "Understood, don't worry."

Yue Xingwen followed Qin Lu to Zhang Xiaonian's residence.

Liu Zhaoqing and Xu Yishen, two "doctors" who were on the night shift last night, were also sleeping in the next bedroom, and the rest of them were watching the surveillance. Ke Shaobin's computer was mainly used for the monitoring of Xinghe Building, and Zhang Xiaonian's computer was used for the monitoring of Jinzuo Community.

A few people gathered together and looked at it seriously.

Yue Xingwen walked over and asked, "Did you find anything?"

Ke Shaobin pushed his glasses and said: "At 02:30 yesterday afternoon, three maintenance workers went up to the rooftop with some tools. It seemed that they were going to repair the drainage pipes. They didn't come down until half an hour after they went up. I saw it at 8 o'clock in the evening, and I haven't finished watching the rest."

Yue Xingwen said: "Check someone for me first."

He handed the USB flash drive to Ke Shaobin, Ke Shaobin copied the data into the laptop, Yue Xingwen asked him to turn on the surveillance at around 23:57 last night, find the man who took the elevator downstairs, take a screenshot to keep the certificate, and then open X-New Concept Hotel guest list.

"Zhang Ronghua, the guest who stayed in room 3007 of X-New Concept Hotel last night, I need his detailed information."

Ke Shaobin immediately started searching on the Internet.Soon, he got detailed information and said: "This is a rich second generation. His father is the president of a real estate group, and his mother is the owner of a jewelry company. Currently, he is the general manager of a real estate company. He usually works in Anming. I live in Beishan City, this time I came to Beishan City, it should be a business trip?"

Xin Yan asked sharply: "Such a wealthy rich second generation, why don't they stay in a high-end five-star hotel on a business trip, but in the X-New Concept Hotel in Xinghe Apartment?"

Ke Shaobin held his glasses, and said: "From the promotional pictures, the decoration style of X-New Concept Hotel is very distinctive, such as suites with mechanical style and metal style, as well as e-sports suites, princess rooms, etc., which are more popular among young people. Welcome. Perhaps, he just thinks the suites here are more individual?"

Yue Xingwen said: "One more thing, this hotel is the closest to the law firm."

Ke Shaobin turned his head to look at Xingwen: "Could it be that he lives here for the convenience of discussing matters with lawyer Zhou Ziyang?"

Yue Xingwen said: "Let's quickly go through the monitoring of the apartment to see if Zhou Ziyang has been here."

Ke Shaobin quickly replayed the apartment monitoring. Sure enough, Zhou Ziyang had been to Xinghe apartment at lunch time at 12:30 yesterday, and took the elevator to the 3007th floor. The corridor monitoring showed that he entered room [-], and the resident of this room was Zhang Ronghua. .

It is unknown what the two talked about in the house.

But when he went out, Zhou Ziyang was all smiles, he should be very satisfied with the result of the negotiation.

Ke Shaobin speculated: "Could it be that there is a gray deal between the two?"

Yue Xingwen said: "It's possible to plan for it. The source of the paper is unknown. Obviously, Chen Xueqin's husband is not the only one who has received money. He no longer has a lawyer. There must be a lot of professional ethics and the number of private transactions with people."

Others heard the conversation between the three and joined in the discussion.

Lan Yarong said: "Xingwen is right. I just read the court records of Chen Xueqin's divorce case in detail. Zhou Ziyang should have both sides. He collected the woman's lawyer's fee and the man's bribe in private. The man will be more satisfied with the final verdict. The woman is only allocated a villa. The man not only gets the custody of the child, but also retains his complete shares in the company and all the bonds invested. In name, Zhou Ziyang is helping the woman in the lawsuit , but actually secretly helping the man, the man Li Decheng is a big boss, and the money he gave him must be more than the lawyer's fee given by the woman."

Such a lawyer is indeed a black sheep who has no professional ethics and discredits the legal profession!

Yue Xingwen looked back at Lan Yarong: "Senior sister, is there anyone named Zhang Ronghua in his past case records?"

Lan Yarong said: "I just focused on the information on Chen Xueqin's divorce case, and I haven't had time to look through the rest."

Ke Shaobin said: "Let me do the search, it will be more convenient to search directly."

He tapped the keyboard quickly and searched in the laptop computer database, but he did not find out that this Zhang Ronghua had any business dealings with Zhou Ziyang.Ke Shaobin was not reconciled, so he went online to search...

Still no gain.

Enter Zhang Ronghua's information on the Internet, it is full of photos of him playing around, and gossip about changing girlfriends.The private life of this rich second generation seems to be very rich.

Suddenly, Ke Shaobin fixed the mouse on a photo: "Wait, this person...is he Li Decheng?"

Yue Xingwen leaned over to take a closer look: "That's right, it's Li Decheng."

In the photo, Li Decheng, Zhang Ronghua and two men took a group photo together. The background is a beautiful island. The four of them are all wearing beach shorts and sunglasses, which is a typical vacation photo.Seeing everyone hooking each other's shoulders and backs in the group photo, the movements are intimate, and the relationship between the four of them should be pretty good.

Lan Yarong frowned and looked at the photo: "Li Decheng, Zhang Ronghua, these two know each other and have a good relationship?"

Yue Xingwen stroked his chin and thought for a moment, then analyzed: "Maybe they were introduced to each other by Lawyer Zhou. Because Lawyer Zhou helped Li Decheng complete the divorce case, this Zhang Ronghua also has a case that needs Lawyer Zhou's help. Li Decheng introduced Lawyer Zhou to him, so he came to Beishan City and asked Lawyer Zhou to meet privately and reached a certain kind of deal."

In this way, we can explore the reason why the two of them met in private without finding information about Zhang Ronghua in the cases that Lawyer Zhou had handled in the past. Lawyer Zhou hung up before the case started and was in the process of negotiating.

This photo may lead to the discovery of more behind-the-scenes "funders" of Lawyer Zhou!
