Xiao Wu stayed up almost all night. He lay in bed for a long time and slept fitfully, so he went out to the police station early.
Many comrades had already come to the police station, and Meng Kenan was also working. After seeing Xiao Wu who had just come to work, he said to Xiao Wu, "Xiao Wu, you're here just in time. Come with me to the old city later."
"
As soon as Xiao Wu finished his promise, Meng Kenan then said, "We'll leave soon after Captain Lin."
"It's better for the two of us to go." Although Xiao Wu tried his best to control it, a somewhat reluctant tone could still be heard.
Meng Kenan listened and glanced at Xiao Wu again, "You and your master really vent their anger through the same nose. Do you also have the same preference for hating people?" Meng Kenan looked at Xiao Wu and continued talking very puzzled.
, "Didn't you admire Captain Lin before?"
"Brother Nan, brother Nan, let's go!" Xiao Wu did not respond to Meng Kenan's words, but said with a smile and urged.
Meng Kenan was surprised by Xiao Wu's 180-degree turn towards Lin Xi. He knew that Lu Sheng must have played a role in it, but he still agreed to Xiao Wu, so the two of them set off directly to the old city.
On the way there, Meng Kenan told Xiao Wu the reason for going to the old town. Xiao Wu thought he was going to find the tall and thin people, but in fact he was looking for an old man who was on duty.
After the scrap plant was closed according to law, there was only one caretaker left in the scrap plant area. He had been looking after the car scrap plant for many years. At the beginning of the year, he just quit and went home because of poor health. Now he quits.
Meng Kenan and Lin Xi went to the scrapyard yesterday. After learning about the situation, Meng Kenan found a way to get the address last night and decided to go find the old man to see if he could ask some questions.
Meng Kenan and Xiao Wu found the old man at home according to the address and started chatting.
"Let me tell you, you don't even need to investigate this explosion. You can't find it even if you want to. It must have been done by the underworld. Those brats who did bad things may not have gone anywhere." The old man said firmly.
"What, is it the underworld?" Xiao Wu listened, looked at the old man doubtfully, and continued to wait. Meng Kenan listened quietly on the side.
"We have several dismantling factories like this in Huangzhou. I heard that they all have a dark background and there is vicious competition in private.
For a while, there were always some gangsters who came to make trouble, but then there was an accidental explosion, and the scrap plant was shut down according to law, and you see, they never come here again."
Meng Kenan suddenly asked, "What are they doing?"
"He did everything, splashing red paint, holding banners, and writing curse words..." The old man counted them one by one. As a person who experienced it himself, he seemed to be talking about what happened to others.
Hearing this, Meng Kenan and Xiao Wu looked at each other. Meng Kenan quickly took out a photo of the handwriting on the scene and showed it to the old man, "Do you remember these handwritings?"
The old man thought about it, and the anger in his words had long since disappeared, "Yes, as soon as I cleaned it up, these little bastards came over to write again. At first they wrote at night, and then they got up early and came over to make trouble. They came over to write and let people
You can’t live in peace.”
"Why didn't you go to the police station to explain the situation?" Xiao Wu asked curiously.
"No one asked me about this word. Besides, didn't you also say it at the time? It was just an accidental explosion and no one was hurt." The old man paused, smiled, hesitated for a while, and continued, "The underworld
, you can’t catch enough, it’s no longer like when we were young.”
…
"You can't catch all the gangsters. They are no longer like when we were young."
After the old man finished speaking, he sighed meaningfully. Xiao Wu and Meng Kenan looked at each other, and were speechless for a moment.
It's not that they work without hard work, but these stubborn diseases do seem to just disappear on TV, but never really leave the lives of ordinary people.
The two left the old man's house, and on the way back, they began to express their opinions to each other about what they had just discovered.
Xiao Wu looked at Meng Kenan who was driving, and said thoughtfully, "It seems that these writings were there before the explosion. The vicious competition that exists between illegal car scrapping factories is to warn and scare people."
…”
Meng Kenan also agreed with Xiao Wu and continued, "So this word was not written by the man in black at all, and this case was probably not done by the man in black.
The characteristics of the Xingfu case are also very different from the Prosperity Road and 912 cases. The Xingfu case was a targeted murder, and then the evidence was destroyed through bombings.
The Prosperity Road case and the 912 case targeted an uncertain group of people, who are accidental."
"I also told my master at the time that the date of the happiness case was different from the previous pattern. I thought it would not have any impact." Xiao Wu recalled the conversation with Lu Sheng at that time and continued,
"My master also felt that there was a problem here at the time. The criminal motives and evidence chain of the four cases could not form a closed loop, but no reasonable explanation could be found. Looking at it now, these are just two cases. They cannot form a closed loop at all."
The car stopped at the police station. Xiao Wu remembered what his master had told him, so he said to Meng Kenan, "Brother Nan, can you not tell others what you discovered today?"
"Just say Lin Xi." Of course Meng Kenan knew what Xiao Wu meant. Although Lu Sheng had not yet clearly informed him of the reason, Meng Kenan knew that there must be something going on, and it was not convenient right now.
explain.
"He also knew the address when I asked for it. What are you going to say?"
"There are many ways, and you can always fool him." Meng Kenan looked at Xiao Wu and told him to keep his heart in his stomach.
…
At home, after listening to Xiao Wu's story, Lu Sheng fell into deep thought for a long time. This was also the first time that he had self-doubt about the analysis of the case. After thinking about it, he couldn't help but feel a little curious.
"Are they two independent cases? Then why do the clues from the 912 case and the Prosperous Road case point to this bombing case?"
"Ring...Ring...Ring..."
The ringing of the phone broke the silence in the room. Lu Sheng thought he was hearing hallucinations again, so he didn't pay much attention and just rubbed his ears.
At this time, Xiao Wu answered the phone, "Hello, Brother Nan."
"What? Are you awake?" Xiao Wu, holding the phone in his hand, repeated Meng Kenan's words on the other end of the phone. The smile on the corner of his mouth had already heralded the arrival of good news, "Okay, I'll be there right away."
Just after hanging up the phone, Xiao Wu excitedly said to Lu Sheng, "Master, the hospital just informed Brother Nan that he is awake."
"Who's awake?" Lu Sheng was a little confused, and suddenly looked at Xiao Wu with enlightenment.
"I'm going to the hospital now. Master, take a good rest. Maybe you can get answers to some questions." Xiao Wu said to Lu Sheng while already getting dressed.
"Hold an umbrella, be careful of rain." Lu Sheng said to Xiao Wu and pointed out the window.
"You said it, you can't!" Xiao Wu smiled and repeated what Lu Sheng once said.
Lu Sheng looked at Xiao Wu happily and ran out eagerly.
