Qu Mingcong doesn't like the autumn in Xianghai City. It's cold and humid, and the sky is always gray, which casts a layer of gray on people's mood.
This is the second time he has stayed in Xianghai for three days. He was supposed to take a flight back to Qingjiang this morning, but due to weather conditions, the plane could not take off, so the return time was changed to tomorrow.
I have to go to the hospital again before I leave.
If you stay in someone else's house or drive in someone else's car, you should always explain it before leaving. This is polite.
Qu Mingcong drove the SUV to the parking lot on the ground floor of the hospital, and then went upstairs with Wang Wei to meet Zou Kai.
The injuries on Zou Kai's face have been treated, but the gauze is thicker than before.
Qu Mingcong returned the car key to him, "The car is parked in its original location. We will go directly to the airport tomorrow and will not take a detour to return the car. Think about where to put the door key. Under the floor mat at the door? Or put it by the community security guard?
There?"
Zou Kai replied irritably: "Put it under the floor mat. There's nothing valuable in the house anyway."
"Okay." Qu Mingcong nodded.
Zou Kai asked again: "Has the investigation of the case downstairs been completed?"
Others live in a beauty hospital, so naturally there is a parking lot downstairs.
Qu Mingcong knew that this guy had a strong sense of justice and couldn't stand someone killing people under his nose. It was normal for him to care more about the progress of the case than ordinary people.
"It should be soon." Qu Mingcong replied.
"What do you mean it's fast? Does it mean the murderer hasn't been found yet?" Zou Kai was very dissatisfied, "The efficiency of handling cases in Xianghai is far worse than that in Qingjiang!"
Qu Mingcong: “…………”
Zou Kai frowned and asked, "I saw online that you were assisting in the investigation, but the case hasn't been found out yet, so why are you going back to Qingjiang?"
Wang Wei continued: "Go back and rest for two days before continuing the investigation."
Zou Kai looked at Qu Mingcong in shock: "Do you still have this attitude when investigating cases now?"
Qu Mingcong twitched his lips and said, "We are assisting in the investigation. It would be rude to do too much on your behalf."
Zou Kai was silent after hearing this, and spoke again after a while, with a strange tone of voice: "Captain Qu is more polite now, and knows that he shouldn't overstep his authority. Why didn't I see you being polite when I used to take credit?"
Qu Mingcong frowned, "When did I take the credit?"
Wang Wei was listening next to him, thinking that there was something wrong.
"You should ask yourself, when was it that you didn't take advantage of me?" Zou Kai sneered, "When the group I led completed the task, when was it that you didn't take the stage to speak on behalf of me?"
"You also know that you are speaking on behalf of the entire department, not taking credit." Qu Mingcong explained helplessly, "Besides, it was the leader's order. Do you think I am happy? I am performing in front of the camera like a gorilla."
"Hey! Watch your words!" Zou Kai said angrily, "Don't think you can speak freely after leaving SWAT!"
Qu Mingcong: “…………”
This guy's sense of collective honor is really not that strong.
Qu Mingcong didn't want to quarrel with him, so as not to hurt the friendship. After all, he had to stay one more night at the B&B.
Just at this time, Sun Bingxin called. Qu Mingcong raised his phone and waved it in front of Zou Kai, "The progress of the case you were waiting for has come. Please calm down."
After speaking, he picked up the phone.
Zou Kai really knew how to behave and immediately kept silent.
On the other end of the phone, Sun Bingxin said: "There were eleven umbrellas checked yesterday, and four of them had blade structures inside. The size basically matched the wound, but no chocolate content was found."
Qu Mingcong was slightly stunned, "Although no chocolate ingredients were detected, the matching size alone should be enough to convict the driver. The umbrella was usually kept in the car. At that time and place, the only person who could obtain the murder weapon was the driver.
."
"I'm here, but he doesn't admit it." Sun Bingxin's tone showed some annoyance, "The driver said that Tong Yuan once publicly stated in a program that he liked this kind of umbrella and thought it was cool, so many fans followed suit.
I bought the same model and we checked it and it was indeed the case.”
Qu Mingcong suddenly felt depressed, feeling like he had finally found a road, but it turned out that this road didn't work.
However, Sun Bingxin spoke again: "We also found an umbrella of the same style at He Xiaohui's house and have sent it for inspection. If chocolate ingredients are found on this umbrella, the crime will probably fall on He Xiaohui."
"He Xiaohui?" This news caught Qu Mingcong a little off guard, "I have been to her house before, but I have never seen this kind of umbrella in her house."
Sun Bingxin sighed in a low voice, "...that's why I called you. He Xiaohui insisted that the umbrella was given to her by Wu Cheng, but there was no fingerprint of Wu Cheng on the umbrella, and there was one in her online shopping order.
She can’t explain the origin of the umbrella at all regarding the record of purchasing the umbrella. You’d better come over now to help her prove it, otherwise it will be difficult for me to save her based on the evidence in front of me.”
"It's this Wucheng again..." Qu Mingcong's face darkened, "What does this person want to do?"
"I don't understand either. Well, maybe I'm too old?" Sun Bingxin sighed again, "I asked He Xiaohui what grudges she had with Wu Cheng. Do you know what He Xiaohui answered me? She said, she
I am friends with Wu Cheng and have always gotten along very well with no grudges."
"No grudges?" Qu Mingcong didn't understand.
"You think it's nonsense too, don't you?" Sun Bingxin laughed helplessly, "She also asked to confront Wu Cheng, saying that Wu Cheng was timid and might have been beaten into submission by us. This is all a mess. That girl's
I don’t know how my brain grew.”
Qu Mingcong frowned after hearing this and replied: "I'll go there now."
He hung up the phone and immediately asked Wang Wei to go with him.
Zou Kai sat up on the bed and said, "Wait a minute, I'll go too."
Qu Mingcong was stunned for a moment, then looked back at him, "...are you going too?"
Wang Wei also advised: "Brother, you should take care of your newly repaired nose in the hospital."
Zou Kai lifted the quilt and got out of bed with a depressed look on his face, "My nose was injured, not my leg!"
Qu Mingcong was helpless, but Zou Kai and Sun Bingxin also knew each other, so it shouldn't be a big problem if they went together.
It's just that there is one more person, and Qiao Yueying will have some troubles. For example, when chatting, she probably shouldn't be too unscrupulous.
…
Sun Bingxin was slightly surprised when the three of them appeared together, but his attention quickly returned to the case and he didn't care too much about Zou Kai's uninvited appearance.
Sun Bingxin brought them to the office and gave a general introduction to the current situation: Wu Cheng was clueless and insisted that he was just an innocent driver. He Xiaohui was full of doubts, but she was like an innocent cabbage. Not only was she extremely suspicious of the police interrogation
Uncooperative and showing strong distrust.
Zou Kai suggested: "Since each of them has their own reasons, why not just let them confront each other? Let's see who is lying."
Sun Bingxin shook his head and said solemnly: "I still want to try again. Unless it is a last resort, I don't want these two people to meet. If the case is committed by two people together, meeting will only give the prisoner more opportunities to improve.
Oral confession.”
Qu Mingcong picked up the two people's new confessions from the table and glanced through them quickly. He couldn't help but have a headache, "He Xiaohui...how did he get himself into this?"
