Meng Qinghan said: "Lin Aji has been escorted to the detention center."
Xu Tiannan: "I have withdrawn from the case. There is no need to talk to me about this kind of thing."
Seeing that the other party was about to go back to the office after finishing speaking, Meng Qinghan asked from behind: "Have you told Chen Liangshan about Lin Aji's arrest?"
Xu Tiannan stopped and responded: "Do you think I will be the kind of person who breaks the investigation rules?"
"No, I just want to confirm with you."
After Meng Qinghan finished speaking, he directly explained his purpose: "I need your help."
Xu Tiannan frowned and said: "Didn't you hear what I said just now? I have withdrawn from this case. From now on, any investigation by your task force has nothing to do with me. Don't come back again..."
However, before Xu Tiannan finished speaking, Meng Qinghan couldn't help but stepped forward and thrust an envelope into the other person's hand. Regardless of whether the other person was willing or not, he said bluntly: "This is the latest information related to Lin Aji. I hope you can
I can put this thing into Chen Liangshan’s hands.”
Xu Tiannan's eyes darkened. After opening the file bag, he found that there were several photos related to Lin Aji. Judging from the shooting angle and clarity, these were pictures taken from the surveillance of the interrogation room in the detention center. Each photo
There are dates marked below. It can be seen that Lin Aji has been interrogated by the police twice since he was transferred to the detention center.
Soon, Xu Tiannan saw Lin Aji with bruises and scars on his face in the most recent photos, and in the remaining photos, he could even see the behavior of the other party making a fuss in the interrogation room, and
In the next photo, several guards rushing in with restraints and shackles in hand.
Xu Tiannan immediately knew what was going on and asked: "She was detained?"
Meng Qinghan nodded, "You must know what kind of place the detention center is. Today is already the fourth day. If nothing else, her spirit is on the verge of collapse."
Xu Tiannan: "So... after so long, this girl still hasn't confessed Chen Liangshan, right?"
Meng Qinghan nodded, "So I need your help. I need you to give these photos to Chen Liangshan and let him know what is happening to Lin Aji now."
Xu Tiannan quickly saw what the other party wanted, and couldn't help but whisper: "Qinghan, do you think Chen Liangshan would choose to surrender in order to protect this girl?"
Meng Qinghan: "He will definitely do it. What Lin Aji is suffering now is not the punishment she deserves at all. Although I have never met Chen Liangshan, I can see from the things I encountered in previous cases that he is a
A man who will do whatever it takes to protect the one he loves, even if the other person is not his wife."
Xu Tiannan shook his head, "If you can't do it, just say it yourself. Don't ask me for this kind of thing."
"He's going to hate you."
Xu Tiannan: "What?"
Meng Qinghan: "Sooner or later, Chen Liangshan will hate you for the rest of his life because you knew the pain Lin Aji was suffering but didn't tell him."
Xu Tiannan: "All this is a cycle of cause and effect. When he made this choice, he should have naturally thought of the guilt he should bear today. There is nothing I can do."
"However, it is Lin Aji who bears the blame now. Are you men going to watch your beloved woman take the blame for you and then be sent to the guillotine?"
Xu Tiannan said displeased: "What does this have to do with me?"
Meng Qinghan suddenly whispered: "If you are the one who committed the crime now, and I am the one who takes the blame for you, will you watch me bear everything in order to protect yourself?"
Xu Tiannan was suddenly surprised and said: "There must be something wrong with you! Why do you ask such unrealistic questions?"
Perhaps because the two of them had been talking for too long, Murong Shui finally walked out of the office. When Meng Qinghan saw the other person walking towards this side, he smiled slightly and said, "Your girlfriend is here. I'll leave this question for another time."
Let me."
Suddenly, Meng Qinghan changed the topic and said: "The only one who can save Lin Aji now is your good friend Chen Liangshan. If you still choose to turn a blind eye to this matter, Lin Aji will eventually be sentenced to death, and
Chen Liangshan will definitely hate you, so think about it yourself."
After saying that, the other party left the office building without looking back. Although Xu Tiannan knew that he had done nothing bad, he was still grumbling at Murong Shui in his heart.
I don’t know what the other party will think, and I’m afraid I will be angry with myself for a long time because of this matter.
But when Murong Shui saw Meng Qinghan leaving, he stepped forward and asked, "Boss, is there something wrong with the case again?"
"Ah? Oh...oh...yes!"
Xu Tiannan came back to his senses and hesitantly explained what Meng Qinghan had asked him for help. Then Murong Shui said: "Then let's go to Brother Liangshan in the afternoon and tell him all these things."
Xu Tiannan: "Do you also think I should tell him these things?"
Murong Shui nodded and said: "Although I don't really like the girl who raised the hippopotamus, but from a woman's perspective, Brother Liangshan will never be able to watch his beloved woman bear this suffering for him. After all...
If Lin Aji is still unwilling to confess the other party in the end, he may really have to face the death penalty. For a man, this is simply more uncomfortable than killing himself."
Xu Tiannan held those photos in his hands, feeling heavy in his heart and not knowing what to say.
He knew Chen Liangshan, and of course he could guess what he would do for Lin Aji, but what about Xiao Yanran? What about Chen Nannan? What should his family and his children do in the future?
This is the first time in Xu Tiannan's career that he has encountered such a confusing, entangled, and over-thinking situation, but he also knows that in fact, none of these should be decided by himself.
Therefore, Xu Tiannan finally decided to leave the choice in Chen Liangshan's hands.
So he picked up the phone and sent a text message to make an appointment to meet with the other party, and the other party quickly replied in the small coffee shop at the entrance of the University of Political Science and Law.
"So be it!"
Xu Tiannan let out a long sigh and put his mobile phone in his pocket. Murong Shui also gently held the other person's hand and comforted him: "It's okay, I will go with you. If you feel that these words cannot be said, just
Let me do it for you."
"Then it's up to you."
After Xu Tiannan finished speaking, he suddenly felt that something was wrong, so he immediately looked at the other person and asked hesitantly: "Huh? Why aren't you angry today?"
Murong Shui raised his head and asked, "What are you angry about?"
"It's just... it's just... you're just not angry that Meng Qinghan came to see me?"
Murong Shui took Xu Tiannan's hand and squeezed it hard, and whispered: "Why aren't you angry? I'm so annoyed with this woman! But...but I'm angry with her, not you, so why should I be at odds with you?"
Xu Tiannan couldn't believe that such words could come from Murong Shui's mouth, but then he heard the other party say: "If I really get into trouble with you because of her coming to see you, wouldn't that be hitting Meng Shui right in the face?"
What is this guy Qinghan’s plans?”
Xu Tiannan asked in confusion: "What do you mean?"
Murong Shui raised his head and explained: "Can't you see that this guy named Meng deliberately wants us to quarrel?"
Xu Tiannan was extremely surprised that the other party could have such analytical ability. After all, the authorities were obsessed with it. In his eyes, these things were only troubles, but in Murong Shui's eyes, he saw something different.
Afterwards, Murong Shui said another sentence that made him extremely embarrassed.
"Besides, Li Mengxue and I agree that this woman Meng Qinghan doesn't like you at all!"
Xu Tiannan felt his face become hot and said unconsciously: "You... how could you see that?"
Murong Shui: "Because when she looks at you, there is no such light in her eyes as when a woman sees a man she likes."
Xu Tiannan said in confusion: "Thankfully you are still studying criminal investigation, but you can say such idealistic words. It's still a shame..."
Murong Shui suddenly stood in front of Xu Tiannan, pointed at his eyes, and said with a confident smile: "It's this kind of light, have you seen it? Here, take a closer look!"
"ok, ok, I got it."
Xu Tiannan looked away embarrassedly and whispered: "I feel relieved when I see you in this state. Let's go. We have to see Chen Liangshan in the afternoon!"
Not long after the two left, Murong Shui suddenly said: "Boss."
"how?"
Murong Shui: "I don't know what to say, anyway... you must be careful about her in the future, you know?"
Of course Xu Tiannan knew who the other party was talking about, so he nodded and responded: "Well, I understand."
