sincerity of lies

This is a case that took place in Shanghai. The deceased Liao was a 43-year-old woman. The murderer was her husband, Wang. The two had been at odds for many years.After Wang saw reports of silver nitrate poisoning on the news and some popular science videos about obtaining silver nitrate, he bought silver nitrate and poisoned Liao's rice that day.

After confirming the death of his wife, Wang reported to the police, falsely claiming that his wife died of random poisoning, but because of his rough tactics and clear shopping records, the police handling the case saw through his lies on the spot and arrested him.

Wang lied at the door of his house and yelled loudly that he didn't buy silver nitrate. Soon the gossip spread to all the neighbors. When the Shanghai police sent him back to the police station, those reporters who smelled blood carried the The camera cannons are also in place one after another.

All of the above is the information given by the Shanghai police during the telephone and video conference with Huo Ranyin and others.

The person in charge of the Shanghai stock market police who called regretfully told Huo Ranyin:

In the past few years, the emphasis has been on openness and transparency in handling cases. For such a highly publicized case, they will immediately use their official account to release relevant short news. When the police announce the announcement, the media will inevitably follow. Everyone in Ning City has worked hard on the case. Be wary of similar cases.

The conference call was over, and the bad atmosphere in the Criminal Police Brigade was even worse. The atmosphere between each other was like someone brushing a layer of transparent glue in the air. Wherever you looked, it was sticky and oppressive.

Ji Xun came to Tan Mingjiu's side and chatted with someone: "Mourning your lost year-end award?"

Tan Mingjiu was dejected: "I don't have extravagant hopes for a long time. Now I want real people to go to the Weibo server and smash this trending search."

Ji Xun clicked his tongue: "It's too violent, you might as well expect the stars in the entertainment industry to show mercy and make some big news to attract everyone's attention."

Tan Mingjiu half-dead: "You are always right."

At this time, Huo Ranyin came out of Zhou Bureau's office.He said: "Tan Mingjiu, you are in charge of interrogating Xin Yongchu tomorrow morning, and use the imitation case to cheat their timetable of poisoning."

"Understood." Tan Mingjiu, "What about you, Captain?"

"Are you planning to go to Lian Dazhang and Lian Panpan with me?" Ji Xun added, "That's right, a wise choice."

"Well, let's go to Lian's family and follow this line."

Huo Ranyin replied, picked up the A4 paper that he just photocopied and sent to "The First Moment", and said, "I've checked again, this anonymous letter didn't mention Lianda chapter, nor did it mention how to do it in detail. The method of poisoning the toffee."

"So the good news is that if the media doesn't know this detail, they can't leak it. In the worst case, you will encounter imitators in the future, and you can distinguish and identify them with the details.

"It seems that Xin Yongchu's accomplice is not so bad as to intentionally use the imitator who is very likely to appear to stir up trouble and hide himself.

"Or, TA, who also thinks he is carrying out justice, has never thought that there will be imitators."

On the first day of February, it was finally over in such a busy life.

The next day, Ji Xun and Huo Ranyin were going to visit Liandazhang, but Huo Ranyin drove to pick him up.

Yesterday was another sleepless night without any surprises. Since getting in the car, Ji Xun has not stopped yawning.

"Did you sleep well last night?"

"I don't sleep well every day. It's not unusual." Ji Xun said casually. In order to cheer up, he chatted with people, "What is the Chinese New Year this year? When is the bureau closed?"

"New Year's Eve on the 7th. The holiday starts in the afternoon of the 7th."

"The New Year's Eve dinner is going to be in five days?" Ji Xun rubbed his face, "Have you bought the ticket to go back to your hometown?"

"I didn't buy it." Huo Ranyin, "I will stay in Ning City to work overtime during Chinese New Year."

"When you are young, you trade your life for money, and when you are old, you trade your life for money." Ji Xun, "Of course, this kind of talk is too early for a young and energetic brother. You have at least three years to work hard before you can be like I, too, started to feel powerless."

"Ji Xun—" Huo Ranyin said with a warning.

Ji Xun stopped and changed the subject: "Look, we're here."

In front of the car, an old residential area is clearly in sight.

Lian Dazhang’s house is currently rented in room 1 on the first floor of the community. This is a room in the school district. Next to it is the school where Lian Panpan goes to school. It takes only 101 minutes to walk there.It is said that it is an old community, and the interior decoration is not bad. It is about 5 square meters and has four rooms. For a family of three, there is enough space for activities.

They met Lianda Zhang first.

Lian Dazhang has been resting at home for the past two days, and the poisoning this time really scared him. Lawyer Lian, who has always worked hard, is only willing to watch cases at home recently, and refuses to go out after being beaten to death.

"Lawyer Lian," Huo Ranyin cut straight to the point, "Have you checked out the public opinion about the poisoning case on the Internet recently?"

Liandazhang smiled: "How could I not understand what happened to me."

"Then you must also know that the poisoning case was done by Xin Yongchu's accomplices. Has this happened?"

"Um……"

"Do you remember Xin Yongchu?" Huo Ranyin asked.

"Somewhat impressed." Lianda Zhang.

"Why didn't you contact the police and report this?"

"Although he bullied me when I was a child, school violence... have you two learned about the data on the first-instance cases of school violence in courts across the country in 2015? There are more than 1000 cases in total. And school violence will be brought to court, yes There are very few. So from the data, we can see that school violence is not as infrequent as everyone thinks. There are very few children who grow up in school who have not experienced a little bit of violence-violence is not just beating. Verbal insults, throwing things away, not letting you go to the bathroom are all part of the violence."

Lian Dazhang looked troubled.

"I personally don't think that the intersection of childhood is any important information, so I didn't contact the police on purpose."

"Then you don't think it's important information when you rejected Tang Zhijia's request from the same village?"

"Captain Huo, look, I'm a lawyer, and I'm doing defense work in court. Their request is to let the police continue to pursue the murderer. It's your job to pursue the murderer. What's the use of looking for me? I can also control the work of the police No?"

"Indeed, this is not within the scope of your work." Huo Ranyin, "So from the beginning to the end, your door is closed and you don't show your face, right?"

"Oh," Liandazhang sighed, "If you can't help people, don't waste their time, and don't give them unrealistic expectations. I don't think there is anything wrong with what I did back then. However, you specifically mentioned These, do you think Xin Yongchu will take revenge on me because of these things in the past? I was not poisoned because of bad luck. It's..."

He moved his butt uneasily, and the ease with which he was coping just now disappeared. After all, the matter has nothing to do with him, so he can hold it high. Now that it is his own interests, he becomes anxious and nervous, and even eloquently:

"They poisoned me in a targeted manner? Captain Huo, I feel that I am in danger now. Can I apply for police protection? When will you sentence Xin Yongchu to death? He killed someone. Although he confessed to the murder, this Not surrendering himself, but negotiating conditions with the police, this is a very bad and lawless situation, which does not meet the standard of a lighter sentence at all!"

"Lawyer Lian is very knowledgeable about the law." Huo Ranyin was indifferent, "However, the sentencing is up to the judge. I believe the judge will consider all the circumstances and make a reasonable and legal judgment."

Liandazhang smiled awkwardly: "Of course, of course."

"One more question." Huo Ranyin said again, "Lawyer Lian, did you get along with Kong Shui the first time you met?"

In the anonymous delivery letter obtained from Kong Shuiqi, there is a little detail worth pondering.

If you want to disclose the news anonymously, when posting to "First Moment", it is enough to directly write "The first moment editorial department accepts it", but what the anonymous person wrote is "The first moment editorial department accepts it from Kong Shui", which is enough to prove The anonymous person and Kong Shuiqi overlap to a certain extent.

"Acquaintance is acquaintance. In the profession of lawyers, people come to me with cases when they are well-known. So I found the "First Moment" magazine, hoping to publish some reports and increase the popularity. At the beginning, there was no way , I can’t find it, it’s my daughter Panpan, who found Editor Kong’s email account from Weibo, I sent him a message, and after a few visits, I got in touch.”

When Lian Dazhang was talking about this passage, Lian Panpan happened to pass by the door.

She casually complained:

"Yeah, come and go, Dad, you are on the road of finding media hype on the Internet and hiring trolls to become hot searches, but unfortunately it never works. False is false, true is true."

Huo Ranyin's eyes turned away from Lian Dazhang, he glanced at Lian Panpan, and then saw Ji Xun who was sitting on the sofa behind Lian Panpan, leisurely.

Ji Xun held a cup of tea in his left hand and a small biscuit in his right. He took a bite, stretched his brows, and looked comfortable, as if he was drinking afternoon tea in a coffee shop.

"Sister Bei Jia," Ji Xun said, "Your craftsmanship is really good. These are the best biscuits I have ever eaten."

Huo Ranyin: "..."

It's only been a few minutes, sister Du is here?

Bei Jia smiled deeply: "Eat more if you like it. My husband and daughter don't like what I make. It's rare that you like it. I'll pack some for you when I leave later."

"Thank you very much then." Ji Xun asked bluntly and naturally, "By the way, can we take a look at your daughter's room?"

Lian Panpan, who had all walked to the bathroom, turned her head and said in a fierce tone, "No, I won't let you into my room!"

"What is not allowed to enter is just a pile of books." The mother directly turned back to her daughter, "You can enter as you like, and you can read whatever you want."

"mom!"

"They are the police. They are here to handle the poisoning case of your father. Don't be so ignorant. They won't rummage through your personal belongings." Bei Jiaxun said.

With mother's endorsement, the two entered Lian Panpan's room smoothly.

Unexpectedly, in the girl's room, there are two 1.5-meter beds side by side, making the originally quite large room cramped and crowded. It may be that Ji Xun's eyes lingered too much on these two beds. Becca Actively explain:

"I usually sleep with my daughter, so that I can better urge her to take a good rest. She always says she is sleepy, but I put her to bed at 11 o'clock, and wake her up at 6 o'clock in the morning. I get up an hour earlier than her. After breakfast, I didn’t feel sleepy. We thought, if there is something wrong with Panpan’s sleep, we came to sleep with her, paid attention to her at any time, and also supervised her homework at night, and she will take the high school entrance examination soon, so we can’t delay any longer.”

"We?" Ji Xun felt that this word was worth pondering.

"Originally, my husband also came to sleep together," Bei Jia said about this, quite critical, "but he is busy with work and often doesn't get home until twelve o'clock in the evening. I'm afraid it will affect my daughter's rest, so forget it."

Ji Xun noticed that Lian Panpan in the living room turned his head and curled his lips.

This is normal.If when he was 15 years old, his parents insisted on sharing a room with him and watching him sleep when they clearly had the conditions to live alone, he would also suffocate.

Bei Jia still has things to do, she left her daughter's room to the two policemen, and went out to work by herself.

Ji Xun tapped the printer on the desktop, the Canon brand, the original ink, and the print ink traces detected by the trace inspection from the anonymous delivery letter.On the A4 white paper randomly placed on the printer shelf, there is indeed a faint smell of perfume.

Ever since he came in, Huo Ranyin, who has been standing behind the curtains all the time, cast his eyes out of the window. He obviously didn't look at Ji Xun, but he seemed to see Ji Xun's heart, and said, "It's not just roses from No Man's Land. There are other brands too." Perfume. There are perfumes such as Round Rose, Berlin Girl, etc., all of which are rose fragrance."

"It seems that this beautiful girl especially likes roses with thorns."

Ji Xun made a joke and continued to look at the house.

As Becca said, there wasn't much to pay attention to in this room exposed to sight.

It's all books.

A cabinet full of books.

Various teaching aids, various literary masterpieces, and a few scattered books with book covers.

"Did your parents let you read comics when you were young?" Ji Xun chatted with Huo Ranyin.

"No."

"Didn't you see it secretly?"

"No."

"I really can't see that you were so obedient and dull when you were young." Ji Xun sighed, "But I have to tell you with regret, Captain Huo, in fact, you only need a small skill, and you can get rid of the depressing excessive stalking by your parents .”

His fingers landed on the bound book.

He pulled it out from the bookshelf and opened it, a fan fiction.

He whistled: "Lucky."

I saw the author's signature on the title page of the fan fiction.

To praise Liubo:

Very happy to see you der~ You are a big beauty!

I hope we have today every year and today every year~

He closed the fanbook, stuffed it back, and said to Huo Ranyin: "Check Song Liubo. It should be Lian Panpan's Weibo account ID—the kind that is not known by parents."

Huo Ranyin agreed.

Ji Xun turned his head and found that Huo Ranyin's eyes were still staring out of the window.

He also glanced outside, and saw the whirling bushes outside the garden.

"Panpan, stop dawdling, change your shoes quickly, you will be late for cram school."

Becca's voice suddenly sounded outside.

Ji Xun turned around.

"Mom, you haven't given me today's lunch money."

"Your mother gets up early in the morning to make lunch for you. How many good things are made into it, so that you can take it to cram school to eat. You don't think it's enough?" Bei Jia said angrily.

"Isn't it okay to drink milk tea?"

"Drinking milk tea every day will ruin your skin and make your body fat!"

The mother scolded her daughter in a low voice, took out 15 yuan from her pocket and handed it over.

"Drink it today, but you can't drink it tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, understand?"

"Now milk tea costs 25 yuan a cup." Lian Panpan said.

"With this money, can't you eat something nutritious?"

Beijia had a headache, so she took out another 10 yuan and stuffed it into her daughter's hand.Lian Panpan walked to the entrance and began to change his shoes.

"Two police officers, I'm going to send my daughter to a cram school, so I'll leave first, and I'll stay at home."

"It's okay, we've finished watching too, let's go out with you." Ji Xun said, "Ms. Bei, thank you for your hospitality."

"It should be me thanking you all. It would be great if we could find out who poisoned my husband as soon as possible." Bei Jia said, and quickly walked to the parking lot with her daughter.

Ji Xun and Huo Ranyin were one step behind.

Huo Ranyin's phone was turned on, and on the page was Song Liubo's Weibo homepage, which contained various cosplay pictures, as well as various shoes, bags, clothes, perfumes and cosmetics, all of which were of great value.

"The lawyer's family income is not low. But looking at the situation just now, Lian Panpan is not free enough in spending money." Ji Xun said, "The question is, where does her money come from?"

"We'll look into this later." Huo Ranyin answered, "Before that..."

They went outside the community.

Bei Jia was driving a red Porsche. She had already driven her daughter out of the garage, and when passing by Ji Xun and Huo Ranyin, she nodded to them.

The two waited on the spot for a while. At this time, a man wearing a fisherman's hat with the brim pulled down and almost covering half of his face came out. In the car, take out the key to start the ignition.

Huo Ranyin pressed his hand.

Ji Xun pulled out his key.

"What are you doing! Are you sick—" the fisherman's hat just yelled out, and a police ID appeared in front of him.

"Interpol." Huo Ranyin said, "Explain why you are following the mother and daughter in front of you."
