Luo Zhenghao subconsciously retorted: "I said I haven't seen it."
"I believe you have never seen it. However," Li Zan pointed out: "Contact does not necessarily require meeting. You can just find a phone booth on the roadside, or make a phone call from a newspaper or store. It is not difficult, and it is also difficult to trace it afterwards.
A deal was completed without even meeting in person."
Li Zan leaned his back against the pillar of the pavilion, "You must have made a deal with the mastermind behind the scenes, otherwise you wouldn't be sentenced to more than ten years in prison. When I checked you, I also checked your family... Don't glare at me, you know
We police officers must handle cases in detail, just in case. Most law-abiding citizens suddenly take risks for no reason, most likely because they are in urgent need of money. You were strong and did not spend much in daily life, so there was nothing you needed to spend big money on. The only possibility is that it is yours.
Relatives, don't worry - I said I won't involve your family, and I will do what I said, as long as you cooperate."
Luo Zhenghao put out his cigarette holder and lit another cigarette. In the smoke, his weather-beaten face was full of struggle. After a while, he said dejectedly: "Just once. For one transaction, he gave me 100,000. I only need to destroy the surveillance camera when someone enters the security department.
It's okay to just turn a blind eye sometimes. As long as you pretend you didn't see it, you will be punished afterwards, but at most it will be a crime of dereliction of duty. I am not the main person in charge of guarding that batch of firearms. If it is a crime, I may be dismissed."
"But I didn't expect that this person would go to the security department and shoot someone in order to silence him. He also dared to threaten the police and openly caused a traffic accident at a highway toll station. The impact was too bad and his attitude was too excessive. He had seriously provoked the authority of the state agency. The provincial department at that time
I almost defined this person as a terrorist."
There is still a big difference between terrorists and extremist criminal suspects. Li Zan estimates that the mastermind behind the scenes was not defined as a terrorist mainly because the other party had no obvious political demands.
Maybe it started out as a temporary idea, taking risks for the sake of money, but then things snowballed and got bigger and bigger, until they fell into the abyss and became unforgivable sins.
Luo Zhenghao: "I suddenly had an extra amount of money from unknown sources, and it was quickly discovered. I pleaded guilty because I was guilty of dereliction of duty, harboring, and assisting criminals. The nature of the criminal was too bad, so I sentenced him accordingly.
Very heavy."
Li Zan: "You have no other relevant clues? No backup plan? Do you dare to believe this deal?"
"How could I dare to believe such a vicious murderer?" Luo Zhenghao said: "I secretly changed the surveillance video tape and replaced it with another video tape. I wanted to wait until my child was cured of the burn and then turn himself in, and then I would give away the dirty money.
Return it." His child had an accident and was severely burned, so he was in urgent need of money.
Luo Zhenghao smiled, which was uglier than crying, "What the mole was supposed to destroy was a videotape with nothing on it, but the funny thing is that he also thought about it! Because of the rush of time, there were no less than two moles in the team.
, I couldn’t take out the video tape, so I mixed it with the old video tape. I didn’t expect that when the mole swapped the two video tapes, the real thing happened to be mixed in!”
Li Zan's heart buzzed, and he blinked slowly: "Is it true that the surveillance video tape... was destroyed?"
Luo Zhenghao nodded: "I, I didn't expect... I didn't expect them to be so cruel! The mole threatened the mastermind behind the scenes with a fake video tape. The whole city was under martial law at that time. I guess that person was going to run away, so the mole couldn't wait to take action to get the last profit. The results are incredible.
It turned out that the blank surveillance tape angered the mastermind. In a rage, he attacked the security department and killed all the people on duty that night. The first was to kill the mole, and the second was to find the surveillance tape..." His voice began to tremble, "You said I
If I hadn’t been smart enough to steal the real videotape, wouldn’t what happened next have happened?”
"In the whole case, from beginning to end, there was only a missing gun and no one died, if I hadn't been smart." Luo Zhenghao laughed at himself: "I took the money and wanted to make amends. How can there be so many good things in the world!"
Over the years, he has been living in regret, for the five lives he was shot at in the security department, and for the three lives he was killed at the highway toll booth.
So in the military court that year, he didn't say a word of defense. He pleaded guilty and was willing to atone for his sins!
Li Zan could not give a fair evaluation of this, nor could he comfort Luo Zhenghao against his will by saying that things are impermanent and fate plays tricks on people, because Luo Zhenghao actually participated in the crime, even if his intentions were not particularly bad, and even if he was forced to do so,
He was just an inconspicuous link, but his actions contributed to the subsequent deaths of a total of eight people and the heavy truck driver.
All this is irrefutable and the evidence is conclusive.
Li Zan opened the candy box he carried with him and handed it to Luo Zhenghao: "Would you like to quit smoking?"
Luo Zhenghao was stunned. After a while, he picked up a candy and put it in his mouth. The sweetness spread on the tip of his tongue, drowning out the bitter taste of tobacco.
"Thanks."
"You haven't tried to guess the identity of the mastermind behind the scenes?"
"I guessed it. But what I suspected was also the suspect of the investigators back then. They were more capable than me and had more information than me, but they crossed the suspects off the list one by one. There was no evidence, and
At that time, everyone had an alibi, and the case was investigated for almost a year. Finally, I could not bear the pressure and had to put the case on hold."
"Is this why you don't like the police?"
Luo Zhenghao did not respond directly and said in a low voice: "Every day in prison, I did not forget to collect clues. I kept recalling the details of that year and recalled them over and over again. Now when I close my eyes, those things are like playing a movie in my mind.
The smallest side details can be seen clearly."
"There were a total of 7 people suspected at that time, including 2 moles. One mole committed suicide, and another mole was killed, leaving 5 people. Two of them have been living in Tangshan New District, one got cancer and passed away, and the remaining
Two people disappeared without a trace."
Li Zan raised his eyes: "Are these two people?"
Luo Zhenghao: "Maybe it's one of them."
"explain."
"One is called Lou Ji, and the other is called Wan Qian Shan."
"I still remember the name."
"If it were you, you wouldn't forget it." Luo Zhenghao said: "Lou Ji is a 16- or 7-year-old teenager. He claims to be from Yunnan and doesn't speak Mandarin very well. He dropped out of junior high school and moved to Liantang County to work. He was introduced to
He worked as an apprentice as a cook in the shooting range cafeteria. On the day the gun was lost, he was not at the shooting range. He received his salary and went to a nightclub to play."
"The police asked and he didn't lie. After the missing gun case, Lou Ji was fired and he went to Yuejiang City. He could still see people in the first half of the year, but then he disappeared."
“It’s not surprising that I often change cities and provinces when working abroad.”
"..." Luo Zhenghao continued: "The other person is named Wan Qianshan. He is in his thirties and divorced from his wife. He entered the palace three times before he disappeared. He has a lot of criminal records and has connections in the industry. He likes studying but is not interested in taking exams.
It turns out that after taking the college entrance examination four times, he failed to pass the central school. Wan Qianshan comes from a poor background and has no academic qualifications, but he is proud and arrogant. He is very talented in crime."
Li Zan: "Compared with that young man named Lou Ji, are you more suspicious of Wan Qianshan?"
Luo Zhenghao: "Wan Qianshan took the lead in leading a fleet of heavy trucks to haul goods over long distances. He traveled to the Guangxi border and the Yunnan border for two years. How many gangsters could he get to know? In a country with a lack of laws and poor mountains and rivers,
Where people eat other people, how long will his restless heart be nourished?" He threw down the cigarette butts and stepped on them to extinguish the fire. There were already three crushed cigarette butts lying on the ground.
"Do you know how those firearms were transported from the military factory to the weapons depot in Liantang County? Three hundred guns and six thousand rounds of ammunition would require at least two trucks to transport them! Who had the most heavy trucks in Liantang County at that time? Thousands
Mountain."
Li Zan couldn't understand: "You let ordinary people transport firearms?" He has neglected his duties to this extent and should learn how to take the blame and resign.
"The economic conditions were not good at that time, so all the trucks in the shooting range were used, so we rented a truck. The whole process of transporting goods was kept secret, and no people from Wanqianshan were involved. But there were traces in the truck. If he saw a gun, he would
You can smell the smell of gunpowder." Luo Zhenghao: "Wanqianshan has transportation, connections, and money to bribe moles. He also knows more about crime than others. Moreover, he often travels to and from the Golden Triangle border. At that time, the border had no
Now that we are safe, marijuana and ice can be found everywhere, so there is no guarantee that he has not become addicted to drugs."
Li Zan: "There are many suspicions in Wan Qianshan. How did he escape the police investigation?"
"He has an alibi and witnesses."
"Then?"
"The eyewitness was his lover. I later discovered that Wan Qianshan had disappeared from the world in Yuejiang City, and I asked someone to go out and inquire about it before I found out about this relationship."
"Why didn't you tell the police?"
"It's too late." Luo Zhenghao: "Wan Qianshan has escaped, and it is impossible for the police to catch him!"
Li Zan's brows furrowed severely, and he knew the true meaning of Luo Zhenghao's unsaid words.
If Wan Qianshan is the mastermind behind the scenes, once he has a chance to escape, he will definitely flee China immediately and never set foot on this land. He often travels between Vietnam and the Golden Triangle, so the best places to go are the two places, because the Golden Triangle is chaotic enough, and
The China-Vietnam extradition regulation was not signed until 2015.
16 years have passed. As long as the fire is not ignited and old things are not brought up again, the 703 black gun case will be dusted forever.
The investigation that went full circle finally came back to the two cases of the two corpses in the flower trough in Simen Village and the fire on Hangshui Street, that is, the two deceased persons in Simen Village were investigating the missing guns and the purpose of Room 102 of the Donglu Shooting Range and the purpose of destroying the firearms.
Li Zan: "What was Room 102 of the Donglu Shooting Range in Liantang County originally used for?"
Luo Zhenghao: "It's the Security Department."
Li Zan: "The security department where the shooting occurred?"
Luo Zhenghao nodded.
Li Zan never let go of his frown, and his eyes glanced at Luo Zhenghao from time to time. The latter lowered his head and his expression was slightly numb, as if he was addicted to the past and couldn't extricate himself.
Whether Wan Qianshan was the mastermind behind the scenes or not depends entirely on Luo Zhenghao's words. Even if he didn't lie, he might have some private goods because it was all his guess and he had no conclusive evidence.
That surveillance tape was the only evidence, but it was a pity that it was destroyed by accident before Luo Zhenghao had time to look at it.
As for Luo Zhenghao, maybe I can believe it 70%.
Luo Zhenghao also hid something that he didn't reveal completely. For example, how did he, a prisoner who had been in prison for more than ten years, collect information from the outside world? And what channels did he use to investigate the five people who were suspected that year?
How do you know that 'Lou Ji', who went to Yuejiang City, disappeared half a year later? Did he keep sending people to keep an eye on him?
Looking for connections, building relationships, asking for help... As time goes by, no one will be willing to work for free, and then money is needed. Only money can make people work hard, but where did Luo Zhenghao get the money? He accepted 100,000 in bribes
More than half of the money is spent on burned children.
Luo Zhenghao said that he never forgot to collect clues every day in prison. How come he didn't know about the large number of gun fragments found in the fire on Hang Shui Street after he was released from prison? Nowadays, communications are developed, and one morning is enough for the news to spread throughout the country. And in
Luo Zhenghao, who lives in the city, doesn’t know?
Li Zan: "Thank you for your cooperation. If your help is needed later, the police may come to see you. I hope you can understand and cooperate." After saying that, he straightened up and made a gesture to leave.
Luo Zhenghao asked urgently: "Are you reopening the old case?"
His anxious look and longing eyes are unfailing. Although there are many doubts, Luo Zhenghao hopes to restart the 703 black gun case and hopes to catch the mastermind behind it.
Li Zan: "Once it is confirmed that the large number of gun fragments in Hangshui Street is related to the missing gun case 16 years ago, it is very likely that it will be restarted."
Luo Zhenghao murmured: "That's great, great..." He solemnly said: "If you need me to provide clues, just come to me."
Li Zan felt a little mixed for a moment. He responded, walked out of the pavilion and suddenly stopped, raised his finger and pointed at the electric tricycle with the fire turned off, and asked: "Is the business still going on?"
"?" Luo Zhenghao: "...do it."
Luo Zhenghao felt unspeakable in his heart. He stood up and walked towards the stall while glancing at Li Zan with complicated eyes, who was standing a little crookedly and hiding under the tree to avoid the sun. His initial confusion couldn't help but emerge in his heart: How did this person get in?
Police station?
He turned on the hot oil again, put back the lunch box that he had picked up in a daze before, picked up the vermicelli and started frying it, unconsciously expressing his confusion.
"Go through the back door." Li Zan replied generously and without shame: "The branch director is my uncle, the city bureau director, and the detachment captain are all basically my dad."
Luo Zhenghao moved his lips: "Are you kidding me?"
Li Zan smiled at him.
Luo Zhenghao: "..." He talks so much about cheating, is this person really reliable?
Li Zan counted the banknotes and coins he had with him to pay, took the takeout box and left. After walking a long way and looking back, Luo Zhenghao was still standing motionless behind the electric tricycle stall, as if watching him leave.
He remembered what Luo Zhenghao said after Wang checked: "Captain Li, you'd better change your clothes before going to Luo Zhenghao. Don't come to the door in a police uniform. Luo Zhenghao doesn't like the police. He had a dispute with the policeman who arrested him. The specific situation is unknown."
It’s very clear, but his son became permanently disabled during that period.”
Li Zan probably guessed that it was because the police found Luo Zhenghao's huge sum of money from unknown sources and withheld it, which inadvertently delayed Luo Zhenghao's son's later treatment, causing him to become permanently disabled.
Therefore, Luo Zhenghao did not like the police. Subsequent incidents such as the shooting at the security department, the traffic accident at the highway toll station, and the release of the biggest suspect Wan Qianshan also made Luo Zhenghao resentful. He complained that the police in charge of the case at the time were not doing well.
Luo Zhenghao knew that his complaints were unreasonable, but he could not control his dark psychology. After all, people need an outlet.
Li Zan walked to the parking lot, took out his mobile phone and called Jiang Heng: "The number you dialed is currently unanswered, please call again later. Sorry, the..."
After ringing for a while, no one answered, and the phone automatically hung up. Li Zan opened the car door and went in. Two minutes later, a Citroën roared out of the parking lot, roaring and moving forward.
***
"I know that you, Jiang Heng, are the current directors of the Gangcheng Jiang Group. Speaking of which, we have cooperated with the shipping company under your Jiang Group several times before to carry some relatively personal things."
Jiang Heng: "I guess the old man banned us from contact and cooperation later."
"I heard that the relationship between your father and son is not good, but I think it is quite good. Father and son are of the same mind." Lou Ji walked around to Jiang Heng, put the muzzle of his gun on his forehead, then squatted down and said face to face: "Your father is too old-fashioned. I found that
After finding out what kind of cargo we were carrying, he not only broke the contract but also withheld it. He used our cargo in exchange for a pass to enter the mainland of China, completely regardless of how big our losses were."
Jiang Heng: "That was the old man's idea. You can talk to him about it."
As we all know, Jiang Heng has lost his father for a long time.
Lou Ji smiled, he didn't really want to settle old scores when he brought this up: "Let's just settle old scores."
Jiang Heng: “I don’t know you, it’s okay, let’s get back to the topic.”
Lou Ji: "The murderer of your sister is not interested either?"
"--!"
"Bang!"
Jiang Heng made a sudden move, but was stopped by the bullet that grazed his scalp. Blood dripped down, and the smell of gunpowder filled his nose. He closed his eyes, and opened them after a while, with violent emotions closing.
In the blink of an eye, he was forced to the lowest boiling point.
"It's you?"
"Of course not! How could I let it go?! Jiang Ying is such a lovely girl. I remember she was born in 2006 or 2005. When it was difficult to make a living, I had to go to Hong Kong City to make a living. I met Jiang Ying by chance while shopping at night.
We walked together for a long time, she talked about hers, and I talked about mine, and we had such a happy chat. Later, she said she had a thousand yuan with her, and I took the money away." Lou Ji's face was filled with tears.
It's a false memory: "It was Jiang Xing's one thousand yuan that helped me get through the most difficult period of time, so I like her very much."
He looked at the indifferent Jiang Heng and asked, "You don't believe it?"
Jiang Heng: “If it’s not you, then who is it?”
Lou Ji: "Actually, you don't need me to tell you, you have almost found out. After Jiang Yun died, you took great revenge, and he also noticed it. He was guarding you--fuck you!"
When Lou Ji beeped, Jiang Heng suddenly swayed back and stretched out his hand as if to grab the gun. Lou Ji was startled, subconsciously stepped back and raised his wrist, and pulled the trigger with his finger, but he did not expect that Jiang Heng's grab for the gun was fake.
It was true that he took advantage of his shooting opportunity to seize the pistol that was thrown on the ground when he was restrained!
He directly used his body as a target, and was hit without fear of pain. His shoulder was pierced by a bullet, but at the same time he successfully got rid of the predicament of being controlled by others and reversed the situation. When Lou Ji cursed "fuck", the sound of pulling the trigger was loud.
Next to his ears, there was a burning pain in his wrist. The pistol hit the ground. He rolled on the spot. He grabbed the rifle on his back with his left hand and turned around, hitting the black hole of the muzzle.
Lou Ji raised his hands knowing the current situation: "Admit defeat, raise the white flag, surrender. You must be careful, I don't want to die yet."
Jiang Heng's face was expressionless: "Throw the gun away."
"No problem." Lou Ji threw away the pistol and kicked it far away in cooperation, "Do you think it's okay?"
"Okay." As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Heng suddenly hit Lou Ji's forehead with the butt of his gun, punched him in the abdomen, then grabbed Lou Ji's wrist where he was shot, and pinched the wound with great force.
"I-fuck!" Lou Ji grimaced in pain and couldn't stand. He was sweating profusely in an instant. He could barely open his eyes and saw Jiang Heng's shoulder stained red with blood. However, he didn't seem to notice it.
Range of motion accelerates blood flow.
Lou Ji squeezed out each word through his teeth: "Really...it wasn't me who killed...Jiang Yun."
"If it were you, you wouldn't have a chance to talk to me now."
Beneath the calm words was Senhan's murderous intent.
Jiang Heng: “Who——killed Jiang Heng.”
"Ha... you've already found the Golden Triangle - I shut up, I don't talk nonsense, I am the person you think of." Lou Ji's face turned pale, and he could no longer maintain his playful smile.
"The mastermind behind the plan to steal more than 300 firearms from the weapons depot in Liantang County 16 years ago was the new general of the Shan State Army in the Golden Triangle. His name was Wan Qianshan. It was he who ordered the killing of Jiang Yun 6 years ago - oh, it was also his own words
He said that he must first feed Jiang Yun some good food and then kill her."
Lou Ji narrowed his eyes and sighed inwardly at how strong Jiang Heng's self-control was. He was so calm that he could not see any emotional fluctuations when he heard the description of the murderer of his sister.
"The person who killed Jiang Yun was following orders." Lou Ji said: "I will give you some gifts to express my sincerity. There are two reasons for killing Jiang Yun. One is that she discovered the drug deal between us and Lin Chaoqi, and the other is that
Revenge. My father-in-law was really unaccommodating back then. He didn’t leave us any way out when doing things. He ignored our sincerity based on our goods list and ruined our deployment in Hong Kong City for several years. The Jiang family’s business territory has expanded.
My boss was in a miserable situation, his territory was encroached upon, and he narrowly escaped death."
Jiang Heng's Adam's apple rolled, his emotions were suppressed to the extreme, and his voice was hoarse: "It was the old man who harmed you. You are looking for him or me to take revenge on a little girl who knows nothing!"
"..." Lou Ji was silent for a while, then said in a tight tone, "I wasn't there at the time. I swear, if I was here, I would definitely save Jiang Yun."
Even an idiot would not believe the lie that a cat cries over a mouse.
Jiang Heng looked at Lou Ji indifferently: "Are you still valuable?"
Lou Ji's face instantly darkened. He knew what Jiang Heng meant. If he couldn't say anything valuable now, he would be shot immediately.
He had no doubt that Jiang Heng was successful. He had heard of Jiang Heng's reputation on the road. Jiang Heng's death made everyone on the Hunhei Road know that such a terrifying hunter had appeared out of nowhere. With both courage and wisdom,
There is also wealth that is frightening.
Lou Jilue was distressed: "Should I tell you more information about the murderer who killed Jiang Xing?"
"It's worthless to me."
As Lou Ji has repeatedly emphasized, Jiang Heng has already found out the real culprit who killed Jiang Yun. He only confirmed it from Lou Ji's mouth. However, Lou Ji's personal confirmation is actually dispensable.
And next, all the deployments Jiang Heng has made in the past six years will be activated and begin to gather in the Golden Triangle area, with majestic fangs and fierce energy!
Therefore, the information Lou Ji can provide is not important.
"With my help, I guarantee that your success rate will be increased by half." Lou Ji smiled, his white teeth shining, and he was as cunning as a wolf: "No matter how much money you have and how many connections you have, you can't be sure that you can be in an army."
Killing the enemy under heavy siege, not to mention the Golden Triangle is the territory of thousands of mountains."
"Besides, you have a weakness now. Don't worry because your father is protected. What about Captain Li? Your boyfriend is also a thorn in the side of many people."
"It's not a bad thing to have more help."
"So, consider the possibility of collaboration."
"You are from Wanqianshan, why should I trust you?"
