Super Time Detective
Chapter 88 17. The Truth-03
"what?"
Zhao Cuihua froze for a moment.
But he was familiar with Yin Jiaming's expression and demeanor, and he was a clever and intelligent person. Looking at Yin Jiaming's expression, he knew something was wrong.
Zhao Cuihua glanced at the funeral scene where the coffin was being lowered in the distance, her eyes turned back and forth on Yuan Zhiqiu, trying her best to dig out the memories that had long been forgotten from the corners.
"By the way... I can't remember the exact date, but it should be in early July."
Zhao Cuihua recalled cautiously:
"One night Brother Yuan brought people to the Ruibao Hotel to play. When he got home, he took some things from his store. He said he couldn't move them, so he asked Ah Hu to carry them for him."
He looked back at Yin Jiaming:
"...is there something wrong with that?"
These hotel security guards, when necessary, help the bosses do some chores, and they are no different from running errands. It is really normal.
Yin Jiaming's expression did not ease at all:
"Did Ah Hu go alone that day?"
"Ah."
Zhao Cuihua nodded.
"Ah Hu is really the only one."
He thought about it and added:
"Ah Hu left in Brother Yuan's car."
"..."
Yin Jiaming didn't speak.
In an instant, thousands of thoughts flooded my mind.
Those disorganized clues have been filling his mind like a mess, and at this moment, a flash of inspiration suddenly occurred, and he grabbed the thread that untied thousands of knots.
Previously at Xie Taiping's home, when he met Jie Qianchou, the other party blurted out, "If you don't want to take the blame, just take care of your horse boy."
Yin Jiaming has always been puzzled, what does this have to do with his "horse boy"?
Now that I think about it carefully, the "horse boy" that Jie Qianchou said should be referring to Ahu.
So, what role did Ah Hu play in this case?
It is impossible for Ah Hu to betray him and frame him with the mastermind X.
That silly boy doesn't have that IQ, and he can't play a good show of hiding things.
Then Ah Hu could only be used by someone without knowing it.
What the mastermind X wants Ah Hu to do is actually very, very simple.
——He just wanted Ah Hu to appear by his side, and let his accomplices see it.
I remember that when Ye Huairui saw the scar on Xie Taiping's face, he felt a little "familiar", saying that he had a subtle sense of sight.
Thinking about it now, Ah Rui's "familiarity" is not Xie Taiping himself, but the scar on Xie Taiping's face that makes him highly recognizable, which is very similar to Ahu.
In their age without the Internet, unless you are a celebrity, singer or movie star who is on magazines and on TV all day long, if you want to know what someone you don’t know, you can only pass it on by word of mouth.
As the manager of a big hotel, Yin Jiaming is quite well-known among certain groups in Jincheng.
But most of the people who know his name don't know what he looks like.
People usually gossip about him, like when others describe Young Master Yin, he is tall, handsome, and has a tattoo on his left arm. The pattern is quite special, it is Guanyin holding lotus.
However, there are a thousand Hamlets for a thousand people. Everyone has their own imagination about "handsome" and "stylish". This is just a very abstract concept, which is very easy to be confused and imitated.
But "ugly" can be expressed in a much more specific way.
Scars, birthmarks, burns, these disfiguring features will make people more impressive.
On the right side of Ah Hu's face, there was a hemangioma almost covering half of his face, which was as ferocious as a blood-colored spider.
Anyone who has heard of his appearance, just needs to look at Ahu's face with his own eyes, and he can instantly match the description with the description in his memory, and immediately have the perception that "he is someone in the legend".
And Ah Hu is Young Master Yin's right-hand man and the person that Young Master Yin often takes with him. This is a well-known fact, even if some people really don't know it, they can find out if they ask someone.
In this way, the mastermind X only needs to make the associates have the illusion that Ah Hu is his follower, and that's it.
He didn't even need to let Ah Hu meet those people.In other words, it's not easy to pass through without meeting each other.
As long as the mastermind X lets the other party see that Ah Hu is respectful to him and hangs around him for a while, his accomplices will be able to recognize Ah Hu, and they will naturally have the association that "Ah Hu must be following Yin Jiaming".
Presumably, Jie Qianchou with a scarred face was deceived by the mastermind X's trick, so he figured out the key point when he saw Yin Jiaming, and at the same time blurted out the phrase "Take care of your horse boy" out of embarrassment .
"……I see."
Yin Jiaming whispered in a voice that only he could hear.
As for why Ah Hu was killed, it was the same reason.
Because Ah Hu is a "witness", he knows who the name of the mastermind X is.
If any robber is caught in the future, the other party will definitely tell the police that Yin Jiaming is not the mastermind, and the mastermind is actually someone else.
The police only need to follow the details of "Ahu once appeared next to the fake Yin Jiaming" in the testimony of the arrested robber, and then invite Ahu to interrogate him carefully, and they will definitely be able to find out the true identity of the mastermind X.
Only the dead can keep secrets forever, so Ahu must die.
"...so simple...and so sinister."
Zhao Cuihua heard Yin Jiaming's self-talk, leaning over her ears, "Brother Ming, what did you say?"
Yin Jiaming didn't answer him, but raised his chin to Yuan Zhiqiu in the crowd, and asked:
"Do you think I resemble him?"
"You mean...with Brother Yuan?"
Someone as clever as Zhao Cuihua had already vaguely understood Yin Jiaming's meaning.
It's just that he didn't know the cause and effect, let alone the clues that Yin Jiaming had grasped. For a while, he felt extremely shocked, his heart was turbulent, and the expression on his face was almost uncontrollable.
"Uh……"
Zhao Cuihua's eyes fell on Yuan Zhiqiu who was in the distance for a while, and then on Yin Jiaming's face. She went back and forth several times before she murmured:
"You two are indeed about the same height, and your body shape is a bit similar...but you are much more handsome than him!...but..."
He swallowed a mouthful of saliva, usually eloquent and eloquent, but now he got stuck, "But..."
Yin Jiaming smiled coldly, and continued:
"However, if you do it right, it's not that difficult to impersonate me, right?"
Zhao Cuihua opened her mouth wide in surprise, like a goldfish, she could only gasp but could not squeak.
Yin Jiaming smiled coldly.
In fact, when he realized that Yuan Zhiqiu was the mastermind X, many contradictions that he couldn't figure out before were resolved.
What Yuan Zhiqiu did at the beginning was two-handed preparation.
He pretended to be Yin Jiaming, not only for the millions of jewels, but also for the idea of framing her from the very beginning.
Perhaps Yuan Zhiqiu never planned to escape to another country from the beginning to the end.
Because not running can give him more benefits than running.
In a sense, Yuan Zhiqiu and Yin Jiaming are competitors.
If Yin Jiaming was charged with robbery and murder for him, not only would he be able to swallow millions of jewels, but he would also benefit from it—for example, the Ruibao Hotel, which he was about to take over soon.
So Yuan Zhiqiu wanted to kill Ah Hu, and all the insiders related to the case, even his accomplices.
——Dai Junfeng, the bank security manager who pretended to hang himself after being strangled in his own home.
——The driver Situ Yingxiong who was killed shortly after the robbery and buried in the wilderness.
——A Hu who was stabbed to death in an alley.
——and the former channel designer Xie Taiping who was lying silently rotting in the closet after being killed at home.
If Jie Qianchou wasn't so easy to find, he might have become Yuan Zhiqiu's dead soul.
Now Yuan Zhiqiu's accomplices and related witnesses are all dead.
Yin Jiaming really couldn't think of any other way to prove that Yuan Zhiqiu was the real mastermind...
…………
……
"Brother Ming...?"
Seeing that Yin Jiaming's face was getting more and more gloomy, like dark clouds under layers of clouds in the sky, Zhao Cuihua was also a little at a loss.
"What now?"
In fact, Yin Jiaming didn't think about what to do.
At this moment, Zhao Cuihua's pager suddenly rang.
He quickly opened it and found that it was Yuan Zhiqiu's follower, Huang Mao, who sent it to him.
The other party's message was very simple, only one sentence:
[The soil is about to be closed, where are you?Hurry up! 】
It turned out that Huang Mao saw that Zhao Cuihua was not there, so he went to the gate of the cemetery and sent him a message on the coin-operated phone, telling him to come quickly.
Zhao Cuihua clutched her pager, her expression became brighter.
If she didn't know anything before, Zhao Cuihua might still feel that she was being arrogant.
But now he has developed deep doubts about Yuan Zhiqiu, and looking at the message sent to him by Brother Yuan's follower, he will be as suspicious as he thinks.
——We don't know each other well!
Zhao Cuihua muttered to herself:
It's fine if his brothers come to remind us, but why do you, a young man of the boss of another family who has no friendship with us, care so much about who arrives and who doesn't at the funeral?
"This……"
Zhao Cuihua's heart skipped a beat, holding a small pager as if holding a piece of hot potato.
"Brother Ming, there is indeed... something wrong with this matter!"
Yin Jiaming shook his head slowly.
"That person... no, it should be Yuan Zhiqiu. What he is looking for is not you, but me."
Yin Jiaming said:
"Yuan Zhiqiu asked his followers to find out where you are, but he just wanted to make sure I was there."
Yes, everyone involved is dead.
Whether it was witnesses or robbers, no one who could testify against Yuan Zhiqiu was there.
The only obstacle for Yuan Zhiqiu was Yin Jiaming.
A dead man cannot speak, so he does not know how to defend himself.
If Yin Jiaming is also dead, then he can carry on the blame of murder and robbery, and no one will suspect that the real murderer is someone else.
"……Ah."
Yin Jiaming sneered:
"If that's the case, then it's as you wish."
He turned his head to look at Zhao Cuihua, word by word, slowly said:
"Cuihua, I need you to do something for me."
Zhao Cuihua froze for a moment.
But he was familiar with Yin Jiaming's expression and demeanor, and he was a clever and intelligent person. Looking at Yin Jiaming's expression, he knew something was wrong.
Zhao Cuihua glanced at the funeral scene where the coffin was being lowered in the distance, her eyes turned back and forth on Yuan Zhiqiu, trying her best to dig out the memories that had long been forgotten from the corners.
