When Zhang Chaohua saw Ling Cang, he behaved very cordially, holding hands and asking questions, as if he really was his son-in-law.
However, Ling Cang did not stay in the hospital for long. After chatting with the Zhang family and his daughter about their respective experiences during this period, Ling Cang got up and left after learning that Zhang Chaohua recovered very smoothly.
The Zhang family's father and daughter were reluctant to leave, and Ling Cang didn't really want to leave, but Ling Cang had to go because staying here for one more minute would bring more danger.
A real man should shoulder everything on his own shoulders and not let others around him bear the burden.
That night, Ling Cang returned to Minghai.
The students had already gone on vacation, and there was no one in the apartment. There were debris everywhere on the floor, which looked quite messy. Lingcang put down his luggage and started cleaning. After a while, the doorbell rang.
"Who is it?" Ling Cang opened the door and was immediately stunned, then smiled bitterly and shook his head.
Several police officers came with serious expressions, and Ling Cang immediately realized that there was another trouble.
Originally, he thought that after settling the matter in the capital, he could take a good vacation. But now Ling Cang felt that a lot of things might happen next, and this vacation was destined to be very long.
"Ling Cang, right..." The leader stood in front of Ling Cang and asked coldly: "Do you have time to talk?"
"I said I don't have time, will you leave?" Ling Cang smiled helplessly: "If you have anything to say, please tell me quickly."
"We are the capital police." The other party took out an ID card and waved it in front of Ling Cang a few times: "I have a case that I would like to ask you to assist in the investigation."
"This is Minghai. What case do you have to pursue me here?" Ling Cang looked calm on the surface, but he was shocked in his heart: "Why are they here?"
"Because the case occurred in Beijing, it will be handled by our Beijing police,"
"If I am correct, the normal procedure should be for you to notify the Minghai police, who will then come to find me,"
"You know the law quite well." The other party found that he could not frighten Ling Cang and softened his tone: "The situation you mentioned was when a wanted criminal was arrested. Now we are just conducting an investigation, so we must come to you in person. "
Another policeman interjected: "We just got off the train and will be here right away,"
"It's really hard for you," Ling Cang shrugged, "But I've been very honest recently and haven't gone out to commit crimes."
"You are very humorous, but I don't like it," the other party reminded coldly, "You have been to the capital recently, right?"
"right,"
"When did you come back?"
"just,"
"What did you do in the capital?"
"There are many things, I don't know which one you want to ask about,"
"Do you know Bai Youwen?"
"Have you ever heard of the Fourth Young Master in the capital? He is very famous."
"Where's Zhang Yi?"
"How about I give you a list of everyone I know and have heard of,"
"You just need to answer our questions," the other party told Ling Cang word for word: "This is to assist in the investigation. You don't need to be nervous. Just provide us with the information you have."
"Well, I can tell you that I have had several contacts with these two people. Although they are not very deep, they left a very good impression on me. They are polite and personable, and they live up to the elegance of a young man from the capital. ,"
"Bai Youwen is dead,"
"I know..." Ling Cang made a sad expression, which seemed so natural and heartfelt: "I feel very sad about his death..."
"You're not surprised at all,"
"I happened to be there when he died,"
The policemen looked at each other, nodded slightly, and then the leader asked: "What was the situation at that time?"
"A group of people wearing strange clothes suddenly appeared and killed Bai Youwen. A few of us resisted desperately, but then for some reason, some more people came out and started fighting with those in front... In short, the situation at that time was a mess. , but it is also very bloody and cruel." Ling Cang took a deep breath and slowly exhaled it: "I feel a little scared now when I think about it."
"and after,"
"Later, Zhang Yi, Yu Zhiqian and I ran as hard as we could and ran far away before finally escaping."
"Why didn't you call the police?"
"I would like to..." Ling Cang said with some anxiety: "However, some people later came to me and told me that they were from the Ministry of Public Security..."
"What," the other party frowned: "What are they looking for you for?"
"Tell me to keep what happened that day strictly confidential. Don't tell anyone. Just pretend that nothing happened. Otherwise, I will face very serious consequences..." Ling Cang looked around, as if to make sure there was no one else. Seeing what happened here: "If you weren't the police, I wouldn't be able to tell you..."
The leader's police officer's ID card stated that he was Peng Shuyou, from the Beijing Criminal Police Department. He and several other police officers looked at each other again, their expressions were very calm, and they seemed to have already known what Ling Cang was talking about.
Ling Cang noticed this detail and became suspicious in his heart. It was obvious that the 03 Brigade had begun to eliminate public opinion and prevent anyone from investigating the bloody battle in the suburbs of Beijing, but why did these police come to the door again?
"You are a high school student, right, but your words and demeanor are very mature." Peng Shuyou took a puff of cigarette, looked at Ling Cang from the corner of his eye, and then started chatting about home affairs: "How is your academic performance?"
"not bad,"
"Are you tired of studying?"
"good,"
"We heard before we came here that you are a good boy..." Officer Peng smiled slightly and said in a relaxed tone: "So you have to cooperate with us in our work."
Officer Peng looks to be in his thirties, but he may not be as scheming as Ling Cang.
The purpose of chatting about these common things is to relax the opponent's vigilance and gradually close the distance between the two parties. When the heat is almost up, he will directly get to the point, allowing the opponent's pawns to reveal their flaws unprepared.
Of course Ling Cang understood this truth and started to take the initiative: "When you come this time, we have gotten to know each other. Let's make friends. When you come to Minghai in the future, we can come out and get together."
"good,"
"I have always respected your work," Ling Cang sighed and said with emotion: "My girlfriend Tongtong's father is a policeman. I often hear her mention some things, and I know that you are working very hard..."
Ling Cang was talking nonsense with his eyes wide open, but the other party didn't know. Instead, he asked: "What exactly does her father do?"
"Director,"
"District Bureau,"
"No, City Bureau,"
"Minghai City Police Station,"
"right,"
"Really? That's not a low level..." Officer Peng's expression changed and he brought the topic back: "Now let's talk about something serious..."
"I've told you everything I know, but I don't know what else I can do to help you," Ling Cang interrupted, but his attitude was very sincere, as if he wanted to help handle the case.
"How did you meet the fourth young master in the capital?"
"It stems from a misunderstanding..." Spreading his hands, Ling Cang said helplessly: "I went to the capital to participate in a competition. After the end, I went to a bar to drink with my friends. As a result, I met Zhang Yi and had some misunderstandings."
"what's next,"
"I beat Zhang Yi, and Zhang Yi called the police and took me to the detention center for a few days."
"How did you get out,"
"The matter has been resolved, of course we have to come out," Ling Cang told the other party expressionlessly: "My girlfriend came forward to coordinate, and Zhang Yi and I quickly settled our differences. Later, I met Bai Youwen through Zhang Yi... roughly That’s what happened,”
"How did you get together on the day Bai Youwen was killed?"
"Bai Youwen's family has a manor and they wanted to take us there to play. Who knew that before we even got there, something like this happened?"
What Ling Cang said is basically consistent with the clues obtained by the police, but these are not what Peng Shuyou really cares about: "You said Zhang Yi called the police to arrest you, do you know who the policeman who arrested you is?"
"It seems that the surname is Wang...I don't know much about it,"
"real,"
"Of course it's true. Why did I lie to you?"
"Have you seen this Officer Wang after that?"
"No, if you hadn't mentioned it today..." Ling Cang said indifferently, "I almost forgot about this person."
"According to what we learned, there were some violations when Officer Wang arrested you," Peng Shuyou asked tentatively, "Don't you hate him at all?"
"Since it's against the rules, you should investigate him, why are you asking me?"
"he died,"
"Ah," Ling Cang was dumbfounded on the spot. After a long time, he asked calmly: "You don't think it has anything to do with me, do you?"
"Of course we believe you can't do such a thing," Officer Peng waved his hands with a cold expression but a warm tone: "We are just making a simple inquiry. Because the nature of this case is very serious, we need to launch a comprehensive investigation. Anyone who knows Officer Wang is within the scope of the investigation,"
A policeman who had been silent until now suddenly interjected: "But you are the only one who has reason to hate Officer Wang."
"To be honest, Officer Wang was really rough when he arrested me. I'm not a very generous person, so I can't say that I can take it lightly, but the root cause of the whole thing is not with him..." Ling Cangyi He spread his hands and said very innocently: "Everything started because of the conflict between me and Zhang Yi. Now we are all good friends. What reason do I have to retaliate against Officer Wang? If I want revenge, I should retaliate against Zhang Yi, right?"
"But this proves after all..."
"I don't think it can prove anything," Ling Cang suddenly became angry and interrupted the other party rudely: "To put it bluntly, Officer Wang just played the role of an errand boy in this matter, because I It is very clear that Zhang Yi instigated Officer Wang to arrest me. I can be brothers with Zhang Yi, but I can't get along with an errand boy. Isn't it a mental problem? Moreover, with Officer Wang's style of doing things, I'm afraid it will You have offended many people. The focus of your investigation should not be on me, a person who is no longer in trouble, but on those who are still trapped in the trouble caused by Officer Wang."
