Late at night, in order not to alert the person who used Yao Hong's mobile phone number, the soldiers of the Armed Police Squadron were first arranged to be on standby outside the village. Zhou Zhongping and Meng Liang drove an ordinary car and arrived quietly under the leadership of the village staff.
The village chief's house.
Seeing the village leader leading four strangers to come to him late at night, the village chief began to act very reserved. After everyone entered the house and Zhou Zhongping revealed his identity, the village chief let out a long breath.
.
"Oh, it turned out to be a comrade from the police. I was shocked and thought something had happened."
"Sorry village chief, we came here late at night to avoid disturbing the villagers. Now there is something very important that requires your cooperation." Zhou Zhongping said in a low voice.
"Yeah, that's no problem. If you have anything to do, just make arrangements." The village chief was also infected by Zhou Zhongping's momentum, and his spirit immediately became tense.
"Okay, let's first understand the basic situation. Is Yao Hong from your village?"
"Yao Hong? Are you talking about the gorgeous Yao Hong? Does she work in some karaoke bar?" the village chief asked.
"Yes, that's her."
"She's from our village, but since her parents passed away, Yao Hong has basically never come back. I haven't seen her for maybe two or three years."
"Has anyone lived in her house recently?" Zhou Zhongping asked.
"Oh, I remembered." The village chief patted his thigh and said:
"Two days ago, the third grandpa next door to Yao Hong's house told me that he heard something going on in Yao Hong's house and asked me if the house of Yao Hong's house had been rented out. I said to him at the time, third grandpa, are you old and confused? How can anyone
Come and rent a house in a remote village like ours."
Zhou Zhongping and Meng Liang exchanged glances and nodded to each other. Zhou Zhongping said:
"Okay, village chief, without further ado, take us to Yao Hong's house right now."
"Let's go, I'll take you there."
The group of people quietly came to the courtyard of Yao Hong's house under the cover of night. Zhou Zhongping came to the door of the courtyard, took out his flashlight and shined a light on the lock that was locked from the outside. He found that there was almost no dust on the lock, and it did not look like it had been uninhabited all year round.
courtyard.
After confirming with the task force personnel on duty that Yao Hong's mobile phone signal access point had not moved, Zhou Zongping ordered the armed police soldiers on standby outside the village to enter the village and surround Yao Hong's home.
After the armed police soldiers were deployed, most of the dogs in the village began to bark. Many people turned on the lights and went to the yard to check the situation, but there was no movement at Yao Hong's house.
"Song Qing, go and watch the back window to prevent the suspect from jumping out of the window and escaping. Ma Yan is waiting in front of the courtyard door, while Meng Liang and I jump over the wall and get in." Zhou Zhongping arranged.
"I'll go in with you." Ma Yan said.
"No, the most important thing is to keep the outside safe. Remember, you must not let the suspect escape."
Meng Liang reached out and pressed Ma Yan's shoulder, and he and Zhou Zhongping came to the courtyard wall. The courtyard wall of less than two meters was a piece of cake for them, so Meng Liang jumped up and grabbed it with both hands.
He reached the top of the wall, then kicked off the wall with his left foot, and put his right foot on the top of the wall. He exerted more force with his hands, and his body was already squatting on the top of the wall.
Zhou Zhongping's skills were not inferior to Meng Liang's. After the two exchanged glances on the wall, their feet left the wall and their bodies landed gently in the courtyard.
Meng Liang reached out and pushed the door and found that it was also locked. The door was an aluminum alloy double-door, and the lock was a brass tongue lock. The house had three main rooms, with a room on the left and right sides of the door.
Zhou Zongping made a gesture with his feet. Meng Liang nodded and pointed at Zhou Zhongping and himself in the room on both sides, meaning that one person was responsible for one side. The two held the pistol and bright flashlight in their hands and confirmed each other.
.
With a loud "clang", the door was kicked open by Meng Liang, and the two quickly entered the house and rushed to the rooms on the east and west sides respectively.
The door to the east was unlocked. Zhou Zhongping rushed to the door in three steps and pushed the door open. At the same time, he also turned on the strong flashlight in his hand. The dazzling light illuminated everything in the room. A picture against the wall
A man was curled up on the bed, using his palms to block the bright light directed at him, trying to adapt to the sudden change. Zhou Zhongping did not wait for his eyes to adapt to the light, and had already rushed forward and put handcuffs on his hands.
The tortured man raised his pale face with squinted eyes. His yellow hair, which had not been taken care of for a long time, had turned half black and half yellow, and was disheveled on his head, like a huge bird's nest.
Zhou Zhongping stared at this face for ten seconds, then stepped forward and grabbed the bird's nest, completely exposing the face in front of him, and yelled:
"Are you fucking Lin Ji?"
"Ah! No, no, yes." The face had been severely deformed under Zhou Zhongping's tug, and he was mumbling words incoherently.
"Tell me! Are you Lin Ji?" Zhou Zhongping threw his face on the bed and asked sternly.
"Yes, yes, I am, I am." Lin Ji curled up and answered tremblingly.
Zhou Zhongping grabbed Lin Ji's shoulders, pulled him up from the bed, dragged him into the middle hall, and pressed the light switch on the wall. At the same time, Meng Liang also dragged a young man from the west room.
When he came out, the man was none other than Lin Ji's brother Lin Xiang.
After opening the door of Yao Hong's house, soldiers from the Armed Police Squadron entered the courtyard and took control of the situation. Zhou Zhongping and others conducted a surprise interview with the Lin Ji brothers in the hall.
"What is your relationship with Yao Hong?"
"Yao Hong, she is my cousin." Lin Ji replied.
"Has Yao Hong contacted you recently?"
"I came here once on the 5th and brought some food and drinks. She said she had to go out for a few days because of something, and told us to save our money and hold on until she comes back."
"Did she say where she went?"
"I just said I was going to the south, but I didn't say where I was going."
"Why is Yao Hong's cell phone here with you?"
"We didn't dare to turn on our mobile phones, so my cousin gave us another of her numbers and let us use this number to go online and kill time."
"Has Yao Hong contacted you in the past two days?"
"No, she didn't reply when we sent messages, and she turned off her phone when we called her."
"Do you know Wang Zhiyong?"
"I know him. He is the person who is with my cousin. We have had dinner with him several times."
"When did you hide here?"
"I've been hiding here since the accident, and I haven't dared to go out."
"Did you set the fire in Wangxucun?"
"I let him go, but it was Liao Wei who arranged for me to go. I didn't want to go. But he said it was work and I had to go. He also said that when I finish the work, the boss will reward me."
"Who is the boss?" Zhou Zhongping asked.
"Yes, yes..." Lin Ji hesitated and did not dare to continue.
"Be honest, who is the boss?" Zhou Zhongping asked sharply.
"Yes, it's Mr. Shen."
"What is your name?"
"Shen, Shen Feiyu."
"Did Shen Feiyu approve of setting fire to Wangxucun?"
"Liao Wei said yes, he also said it was Mr. Shen, and Shen Feiyu personally called me to go."
After listening to Lin Ji's explanation, Zhou Zhongping exchanged glances with Meng Liang, Ma Yan and others, and suddenly felt that the burden on his shoulders was much heavier. Shen Feiyu was the general manager of Jiangkai Real Estate, and belonged to the Shen family. Young Master, if he is involved in the arson case, what will be waiting for them?
