In broad daylight, Shang Yang was brought into the situation by Jin Xu's hypothesis, and when he thought about it, he couldn't help feeling chills down his back.

"But..." He felt that there were still many problems with this assumption, and said, "The deceased may have a heart attack from fright, but how would the murderer sneak into his house?"

The deceased had an evil intention, but the "hooligan" also "messed" with an associate professor. He definitely couldn't live in the wilderness. Even if there is no surveillance system installed in the house, there must be cameras in the community and the elevator. If someone suspicious sneaks into the owner's house in the middle of the night, There is no reason for no trace to be photographed.

They had dinner with colleagues from the local criminal investigation department that day. The detachment leader also mentioned that the case aroused the suspicion of the criminal police at the time, and they also intervened in the investigation. In the end, the case was closed due to natural death due to illness. It must be that no suspicious clues were found. .

Jin Xu said: "I'm just guessing, there is no factual basis."

He said so, clearly [-]% confident in the direction of his guess, and said: "It would be great if I could go to the scene to see."

Shang Yang said: "We can't go, we're just here to do research work, it's reasonable to know the facts of the case, it's too much to intervene."

Jin Xu could only say: "Understood."

Shang Yang knew that he was addicted to investigating cases, and said, "It's been several years. Even if we could go to the scene, we probably wouldn't find anything."

"Not absolutely." Jin Xu paused, probably because he thought they were going back soon, and he didn't have the authority to handle the case here, so he stopped talking and said, "Forget it, anyway, when the floating corpse case is caught If the suspect is really related to the case six or seven years ago, then everything will be solved at once."

Shang Yang tilted his head to look at him, and said, "You've only been on vacation for a month, and you're so obsessed with cases. I'll see how you'll live in the next few months."

Jin Xu: "..."

"Why don't you have enough rest, go back to the northwest and go investigate the case." Shang Yang suggested sincerely.

"No." Jin Xu immediately objected, saying, "What's so interesting about the case, I'm trying to take a vacation because of other things... Don't you know?"

Shang Yang turned his face away and said, "I don't know."

Jin Xu stared at him maliciously for a moment, then said without end: "Your stomach will still hurt tomorrow."

Shang Yang didn't notice the malice, and said naively: "Impossible, I put up a warm baby today, so I won't be afraid of the cold wind."

"Today is dry," Jin Xu said, "Tomorrow will be me."

Shang Yang was tongue-tied, and blood instantly flew to his cheeks.

Jin Xu didn't feel much when he said it, but when he saw Shang Yang's behavior after speaking, he suddenly felt embarrassed.

The two sat on the side of the city bureau hall where people were coming and going. They both folded their arms as if to cover up their embarrassment. Their sitting postures were still exactly the same, and the blushes on their faces were not much different.

After a while, Shang Yang showed the director's air, and said to the assistant: "Pay attention to the case here in a moderate amount. We have to go back tomorrow night at the latest, and we have to go to work on Monday."

Jin Xu paused for a few seconds before saying "hmm". The criminal policeman's occupational disease has been engraved into his bones and blood. He can't intervene in the cases he has been in contact with.But he didn't say anything.

"Aren't you very obedient?" Shang Yang chatted with him casually, "Why do you have to be a stabbing head in your unit? You hate the director of Gu, the leader of the National Security Bureau, and I heard that you even hated the leadership of the department."

Jin Xu said: "I have a bad temper and don't know the rules, so I won't do it in the future."

Shang Yang: "..."

"Are you very unconvinced?" He wondered, "Why are you so weird to me?"

Jin Xu said: "No... I don't want to talk about our unit, can I talk about something else?"

Shang Yang said: "Why?"

"Just..." Jin Xu said angrily, "It seems to remind me that I have to go back sooner or later."

Shang Yang thought to himself, otherwise, he was supposed to go back, could he still be on vacation?Suddenly, he remembered what he said a while ago, working and living with him was only a dream in the past.At that time, Shang Yang only listened to it as a love story, but at this moment, a different feeling suddenly surged up.

Before he could think it over carefully, Jin Xu saw an acquaintance in the direction of the stairs and reminded him: "Old Huang."

Huang Jianping had already changed out of his uniform and was wearing his own clothes. He was in a hurry, as if he was about to go out.

It was almost noon, and Shang Yang guessed that he should pick up his daughter according to his wife Tian Rong's instructions.

"Section Chief Huang," but Jin Xu greeted the other party first, and said, "Do you want to go out to investigate the case?"

Huang Jianping's hurried pace immediately slowed down a bit, and he hesitated for a while before walking in front of the two investigators.

Jin Xu really liked his performance?Do you really want to investigate the case secretly by yourself?

"How do you know what I'm going to do?" Huang Jianping looked at Jin Xu suspiciously.

"I was talking nonsense." Jin Xu said.

Huang Jianping: "..."

Shang Yang frowned, and said bluntly: "Chief Huang, you are working in the office now, don't make trouble for yourself, let alone make trouble for Captain Tian."

Huang Jianping looked gloomy and said, "How can I sit still? You can let me be a pawn for Tian Rong, as long as I can participate in this case, she won't let me go."

"If I were Captain Tian, ​​I wouldn't let you go." Jin Xu said "casual nonsense" again, "Why didn't you tell us? So you and Qiu Li still have an affair."

Shang Yang cooperatively made an expression of "tsk tsk, I can't see that you, Huang, are such a person".

Huang Jianping was even more wronged than Dou E: "What's the matter? There's a fart!" Maybe it's because he couldn't express clearly in Mandarin, but he changed his dialect and cursed. In short, he expressed that he and Qiu Li had nothing to do with each other.

"Then why didn't you explain it clearly to Team Tian?" Shang Yang said.

"I have explained it many times, but the explanation is not clear. She doesn't believe me at all, and I can't explain some things..." Huang Jianping paused as he spoke, and changed into a look that he didn't want to go into details, and said seriously, "I still Could it be that you don’t understand the rules? I’m sure I won’t cause trouble for her, I just want to visit the surrounding people by the lake and see if I can help.”

Both Jin Xu and Shang Yang were staring at the subtle expressions on his face, listening carefully to his expressions and sentences.Huang Jianping's temper can be violent, but he is a criminal policeman with more than [-] years of work experience. He soon realized that he was being observed. He quickly pulled away from the natural emotions of being misunderstood at the beginning, and became relaxed and peaceful again. There is a sense of proportion, but the slack and proportion are very deliberate.

Finally, Shang Yang said: "Don't go, this is not your job. Go pick up your daughter, don't let her go home alone, it's not safe."

Huang Jianping nodded. He must have heard that Shang Yang knew that his daughter was deaf, but he didn't say anything more about this issue. He just said, "Then I'll go first."

He walked outside.Shang Yang and Jin Xu watched him in place and drove into the courtyard, and drove away from the city bureau compound.

"Us?" Shang Yang suggested uncertainly, "Follow him to see? I always feel that it's not as simple as going to the lake to visit people."

Jin Xu nodded in agreement, and said, "But there's no need to follow. He sees that you and I are suspicious of him. He will go directly to pick up his daughter when he goes out, and won't go where he was going."

Shang Yang said: "What secret does this old Huang have? I can't understand him anymore."

Jin Xu said: "I don't know, but he is definitely not the murderer of the floating corpse case."

If Huang Jianping wants to vent his anger on Qiu Li, the target of his revenge is more likely to be the "male P9" who pretended to be Qiu Li and sent sexual harassment messages to his male subordinates, not the male subordinates who are also victims.

Assuming that the death of the male subordinate was related to Qiu Li's suicide, the suspect who committed the crime must be a person who does not know enough about the real situation.Then this person will not be Huang Jianping, who is an insider of the public security.

"Qiu Li's matter should have nothing to do with him, but I'm more inclined," Jin Xu said, "He concealed something when he investigated the case of Qiu Li's sister Qiu Ling six or seven years ago."

Shang Yang was brought into this logic and said: "When he took over the case of Qiu Ling's suicide, Qiu Ling was already dead, so what he concealed and caused him to develop a heart attack is probably related to the death of the associate professor."

He thought again and said in surprise, "If the associate professor was really scared to death by someone pretending to be a ghost, could it be that Huang Jianping is that ghost?"

Jin Xu didn't interrupt and listened to him quietly.

Shang Yang continued: "Sneaking into someone's house in the middle of the night can still avoid disturbing the family and the property, escape the surveillance smoothly, and leave no clues. This is not a small difficulty for ordinary people, but it is entirely possible for an old criminal policeman. Do it! Oh my God, it can't be him."

Jin Xu smiled.

"..." Shang Yang said, "What are you laughing at? Just point it out if I'm wrong."

Jin Xu teased him with a smile: "You still talk about me, your addiction to solving crimes is not small."

Shang Yang did not hide his interest in investigating cases, and said, "Didn't I all learn from you? I have been in the public security system for so many years, and I have been with you in all the cases I have really participated in the investigation of."

Jin Xu was happy, and said: "This can be considered as a marriage..."

Shang Yang shouted: "Shut up."

Jin Xu stopped talking.

"It's not okay to be addicted," Shang Yang felt that this is not okay, and said, "This is not our job after all, let's go back as soon as possible."

Jin Xu suggested: "Go and say goodbye to Police Officer Xiao Chen?"

Shang Yang saw through his purpose: "You just want to go to the investigation team to see what progress they have made."

Jin Xu asked back, "You don't want to?"

Shang Yang really wanted to firmly give a negative answer, but in the end he told the truth angrily: "I think so."

In the reconnaissance team, Police Officer Xiao Chen was preparing instant noodles for lunch. The whole team went out, but he stayed behind alone, and he didn't dare to go to the cafeteria.

"Yes, there is progress!" He enthusiastically helped Shang Yang and Jin Xu update the latest situation of the floating corpse case.

The male deceased was a fresh graduate student. He had a good school and was a good-looking person. He successfully got an offer from a big factory when he was recruited by the school. He was harassed by his "female boss" within three months of joining the job.

After the boy was harassed and provoked by "Qiu Li", he angrily posted the screenshot on the company's large group, and then he and Qiu Li confronted each other at the mediation bureau hosted by the company's HR, and both found out that the whole thing was someone else's routine.

Naturally, the real villains have to deal with it. Here we only talk about the conflict between the boy and Qiu Li. The boy himself felt embarrassed and ashamed, and apologized to Qiu Li in person.

However, Qiu Li made a request that the deceased apologize publicly in large groups in the company, and write a written apology, and post it in conspicuous places such as the company's office area and cafeteria, so as to eliminate the adverse impact on Qiu Li's reputation.

The boy agreed to apologize in a large group, but he did not agree to post the apology everywhere. He believed that he was also a victim of this incident. Whether the bad influence on Qiu Li can be eliminated is still unknown, but he is 100% socially dead, and he can't stay in this company anymore, and he doesn't want to lose his hard-won job in a big factory.

The two sides failed to reach an agreement the first time, and HR tried to coordinate several times afterwards, but Qiu Li and the boy refused to give in, and even had several unnecessary quarrels.

A week later, Qiu Li fell from the building and was later confirmed by the police as a suicide.Only then did everyone in the company know that Qiu Li, a strong woman who looks serious all day long, actually suffers from a mental illness that cannot be stimulated emotionally.

The police learned from the boy's girlfriend that after Qiu Li's death, the boy felt very guilty, thinking that if he could have checked "Qiu Li"'s WeChat at the beginning, and if he was willing to make a little concession after the incident, maybe Qiu Li You won't be on a dead end.

When the girlfriend was just approached by the police to inform her of the news of the boy's death in the lake, she thought that the boy was too guilty, so she got into a corner and chose to commit suicide.

Hearing this, Shang Yang couldn't help saying: "This boy...it's a pity."

"It's normal for him to feel guilty. There was something wrong with what he did originally," Jin Xu said. "But it would be outrageous to commit suicide. What does his girlfriend think? Illness will make the decision to commit suicide."

Officer Xiao Chen said: "I haven't finished talking yet, because there is another incident that happened."

After Qiu Li committed suicide, her body rested in a funeral home.Some colleagues in the company went to present flowers to send them off, and the boys also came to present flowers, but unfortunately, that day, they happened to meet Qiu Li's husband, Dong Ping.

Xiao Chen said: "Dong Ping went crazy when he saw him. He picked up his flowers and threw them away, and drove the people away. He pointed at him at the door of the funeral parlor and scolded him, saying that he was the murderer who forced his wife to death. If his colleagues hadn't stopped him, Dong Ping would have beaten someone. A young man who had just graduated had never seen such a battle. His colleagues in the company said that the boy cried all the way back, and he had always been angry with Qiu Li. I feel guilty to death, and even frightened and brainwashed by Dong Ping's words, people are a little dazed, and I haven't gone to work for a few days."

And his girlfriend said that he didn't go out during the few days when he was resting at home, and slept with his head covered, but he kept having nightmares and couldn't sleep when he woke up in the middle of the night. Words like killing people.

So when my girlfriend heard that he fell into the lake, her first thought was that he committed suicide.

"Then this Dong Ping?" Shang Yang felt more and more that Qiu Li's husband was suspected of committing the crime, and said, "Have you asked him to find out about the situation?"

Xiao Chen said: "It is said that no one can be found anywhere, Team Tian is also leading people to look for it now. Dong Ping has no job, and the mother who takes care of the children and Qiu Li at home has no one at home, and the old lady and the children are not there either. .”

Hearing that Jin Xu also frowned, Shang Yang worried: "Run away? But where can we go with the elderly and children?"

Xiao Chen couldn't answer either, and said, "One more thing... The identity of the floating corpse was exposed by the media."

Shang Yang suddenly had one head and two big ones.

He hasn't read it online for a long time, and the public opinion has already blown up.

The floating corpse in the lake is actually related to the suicide case that was searched a few days ago. This matter is simply a gimmick. If nothing more outrageous happens in the next two months, this matter will be the hottest social news of the year... There are men and women , there are capitalists and workers, there are big factories and famous schools, and the location of the crime is a famous scenic spot at home and abroad.

Shang Yang and Jin Xu: "..."

"I have a bad premonition." Shang Yang said, this kind of explosion of public opinion affects the whole body, and if it is not handled well, it will easily lead to big troubles.

"I also have a hunch that the ministry will send supervisors soon." Jin Xu said, "Why don't you apply and become a consultant?"

Shang Yang said angrily: "You just want to solve the case, and you don't think about such a big influence. Can I take the responsibility?"

"Why not?" Jin Xu said, "You are high enough, you have experience in criminal investigation, and you have also served as a consultant for other influential cases."

Shang Yang: "..."

Police officer Xiao Chen understood or not, anyway, he interjected first: "I think it will work."

Shang Yang: "Eat your instant noodles."

They were talking, when suddenly there was a loud cry of a child outside.

Jin Xu was the closest to the door, went out and stopped for a while, then came in with a subtle look on his face and said, "If I'm not wrong, it seems that Dong Ping has surrendered himself."

Shang Yang went out suspiciously to see that an old woman was holding a crying four or five-year-old child. The child reached out to reach a man next to him. The man was in his early forties. Going to the room, at this time the child was crying, hesitant and heartbroken.

This trio fits the basic characteristics of Qiu Li's mother, child, and husband Dong Ping.

Captain Tian Rong of the reconnaissance team led the team to search for the suspect Dong Ping, but the whole team didn't come back. Dong Ping turned himself in?

The man was taken into the room by the police, and the woman, accompanied by another policeman, waited elsewhere with her crying child in her arms.

Xiao Chen quickly ran to inquire, and came back to report: "That man is Dong Ping!"

Jin Xu said, "Surrender yourself?"

Xiao Chen said: "Then I don't know. I have to wait until the questioning is over to find out. My level is not qualified to attend."

Shang Yang is quite high-ranking, but he has no reputation at all to listen in. This is something that investigators should not interfere with.

He was anxious, pacing back and forth, really wanting to know what Dong Ping was doing here, did he turn himself in?Did Dong Ping kill the male subordinate?Six or seven years ago, did the associate professor die normally?

Jin Xu asked leisurely: "Are you hungry? Let's eat first?"

Shang Yang: "Not hungry, not eating, not in the mood."

Now he has become the one who is most anxious to handle the case, it's unreasonable.

After pacing up and down a few more times, his phone vibrated, he took it out to have a look, and answered suspiciously: "Yuan Ding? What are you doing?"

The long-lost ex-apprentice Yuan Ding, who is now working in the Criminal Investigation Bureau, asked with a smile on the phone: "Director Shang, are you and Senior Brother Jin together..."

"You don't care where we are." Since Yuan Ding had watched the beginning of the love between the two seniors, Shang Yang preemptively scolded him before he finished speaking, "Leave your leadership alone!"

Yuan Ding was afraid that he would be hung up before he could finish speaking, so he went straight to the topic and said, "I'm at the high-speed rail station, I'll go over to find you right away! I was ordered to supervise the floating corpse case!"
