Li Zan went to the corridor to smoke by the window. The ashes fell into the cracks of the window sill, and the cracks were covered with soft moss.
Lao Zeng came over and said: "The evidence of Chen Sanhei and Cheng Ke's crimes is conclusive. After the case is concluded, they will be handed over to the court for sentencing. Lin Chaoqi cannot escape the death penalty. The Municipal Bureau's Anti-Drug Detachment has taken over the drug trafficking case on Hangshui Street, and there will be a big move next."
Li Zan: “Kengshui Street should have been rectified long ago.”
Old Zeng nodded and continued: "This case involves too much. We have to stay up all night to sort out the case submissions, and the city bureau is ready to take over and handle the follow-up. Bureau Tong also told me that you should go to a psychiatrist when you have time."
Li Zan: "I know."
Lao Zeng: "Don't fool me with your talk. In our line of work, it's easy to have some mental problems." As he spoke, he took out a folder from his arm and threw it to Li Zan: "You asked me before
The murder files from the warehouse in the suburbs of Ning'an were retrieved several years ago. It took me a lot of effort to dig out this copy from Ning'an."
Li Zan took the document: "Thank you." He changed the cigarette to his left hand, thought for a while and asked: "Have you intercepted the batch of new drugs that were shipped out?"
Lao Zeng: "I just received the news. I was stopped when I arrived at the Shenzhen border. I had to change several cars along the way from Yuejiang to Shenzhen. I am very aware of counter-investigation."
Li Zan asked again if anyone was injured, and replied that one or two anti-narcotics policemen were slightly injured. We can only rest assured if no one died. He ordered: "Let Chen Jie compile the case report, and I will take it to Bureau Tong for approval later."
Lao Zeng: "Okay."
The cigarette between Li Zan's fingers burned to the end, almost burning his hand, and a long string of ash fell down. He put out the cigarette butt and threw it away. He took the document bag and walked out of the branch.
The sky outside is completely dark. There are only one or two stars in the sky. The night wind is slightly cold, and the air is moist with abundant water vapor in late spring. The street lights are like tall white poplars, and their quiet light illuminates the clean road. There is a constant stream of bicycles and pedestrians on the sidewalk.
Absolutely, most of them are nearby residents who went to the park or just came back from the park.
Walk a few dozen meters ahead of the road outside the branch to reach an intersection. Walk a few dozen meters to the right to reach the park. There is a green electric box with lotus leaves painted on it at the intersection. Jiang Heng, who is wearing a round-necked black sweater with his sleeves rolled up to his elbows, is there.
Stand there.
Others thought he was waiting for the traffic light. When the light turned green, they couldn't help but remind him. Jiang Heng lowered his head and said something, and the person he was chatting with kept turning his head as he passed by.
From the angle Li Zan was at, he could see Jiang Heng's profile, his lips curled up in a curve, and his smile polite and distant. He had just approached Jiang Heng about three to four meters away when Jiang Heng suddenly turned his head and looked over, alert and keen.
When Jiang Heng saw it was Li Zan, the cold and distant look on his face was diluted by a relaxed and friendly smile: "I can see you wherever I go out, do you think it's a coincidence?"
Li Zan twitched the corner of his lips, not wanting to talk to him about what a 'contrived chance encounter' meant, so he put one hand in his trouser pocket and lazily crossed the zebra crossing with his eyes half-closed.
Jiang Heng followed.
The two of them went to Dafu Park and sat on a stone table under a big banyan tree at the entrance to chat. About ten meters to the left was a square dance venue.
.
At least the dialogue output does not depend on shouting, just sit closer.
Jiang Heng: "How is the progress? Is it going well?"
"Progress to close the case." Li Zan knew what he wanted to know, so he took out his mobile phone, opened the recording interface and pushed it in front of Jiang Heng: "I'm not sure whether Lin Chaoqi's reply is true or false."
Jiang Heng looked solemn. He clicked on the recording and leaned to his ear to listen carefully.
The audio only lasts for two minutes, recording the cause of Jiang Xing's death and the location of the mastermind who killed her.
Jiang Heng finished listening quickly and repeated the playback twice. His expression became more and more serious, but there was no shock or anger as Li Zan imagined. It seemed that these were within the approximate range of his predictions.
‘…You’re so good at it—!’ the audio stopped midway.
Jiang Heng returned the phone, "Thank you."
Li Zan: "Sincerity in cooperation." He pushed the documents and files given by Lao Zeng into Jiang Heng's hand and lowered his voice: "Fulfill the promise. It took a long time to gather dust, but the records are very detailed."
Hearing this, Jiang Heng asked: "Have you seen it?"
Li Zan: "Paper file records are generally more detailed than computer records. They are all handled cases, and the recorded information is followed up throughout the entire process. Computer entry may not be complete without omissions."
Jiang Heng thanked him again and was not in a hurry to open the files and read them.
This file is about a murder that occurred in a warehouse in the suburbs of Ning'an six years ago. Jiang Xing's murder record, including the person who reported the crime, the first scene photos and the autopsy report, are all recorded in detail.
At that time, the Ning'an District Bureau received an anonymous alarm call and rushed out the police to retrieve Jiang Xing's stiff body. They opened a case to investigate, inspected the murder scene, and performed an autopsy on the deceased, but the body was taken away not long after.
The case therefore became unsolved.
Li Zan: "You don't seem to be surprised by the audio content."
"I can guess more or less." Jiang Heng said: "The Jiang family did not have such deep grudges with others. Jiang Heng was injected with drugs before his death. It is only possible that he was silenced." The reason for the silence was related to drugs.
He came back too late, and the second autopsy could no longer analyze the components of the drugs injected into Jiang Yang's blood, but the police autopsy report may have complete records.
Li Zan looked at Jiang Heng, whose expression could not be seen clearly in the mottled light and shadow.
He recounted Lin Chaoqi's case and told Jiang Heng that the motive and results were as they jointly speculated, and there was not much difference.
"Behind seaport smuggling and drug manufacturing and trafficking, there are traces of crimes committed by the same person or the same criminal gang. They were deployed six or seven years ago. The scale is large, the penetration is deep, and it is difficult to clean up." Li Zan said suddenly and relaxedly: "The advantage is to uncover the
Just two strands of thread, just grab them along the vine, and sooner or later you will catch them all."
Jiang Heng looked at the time, "Eight o'clock, not too late. Have you eaten?"
Li Zan followed his gaze and saw Jiang Heng wearing a low-key and elegant watch. He stood up and said, "Not yet."
"I cooked seafood porridge at home."
Li Zan, who had walked a few steps forward, crossed his arms and turned to Jiang Heng, who did not treat him as a guest and was as familiar with him as tap water: "Friend, we promised that we won't stay for long, and we will finish the work as promised."
Come on, you won’t forget, right?”
"Of course not. I have always been true to my word and never lied to others, especially my friends." Jiang Heng came over, raised his arm and put it on Li Zan's shoulders smoothly and freely, showing the integrity of the two brothers.
, "I haven't finished my work yet?"
Li Zan shook his left shoulder and shook off Jiang Heng's arm. He thought that what Jiang Heng wanted to do was to trace the cause of Jiang Xing's death. Now that the murderer of Jiang Xing was found, Yuejiang City did not have him.
Reasons to stay.
Jiang Heng knew very well that Li Zan was very wary of him. He used to suspect him of committing a crime, but now he suspects him of evil intentions... Well, he does have an impure mind and evil intentions.
"Not because of our life-and-death friendship, but because of the friendship between our parents, don't be so resistant, okay? Go home - don't mince words, it's too emotionless to say that you go back to the apartment." Jiang Heng is a person.
It makes you live a very emotional life, and you can always live a delicious life. "Seafood porridge is my specialty, standard Hong Kong-style seafood porridge. I learned it from the chef myself before. Captain Li, please give me a thumbs up,
Tasting tasting?”
People say that, if you don't give me face, you will look too stingy.
What's more, Li Zan is not a stingy person.
He nodded and the two walked side by side.
When Li Zan arrived at the park gate, he said: "Friendship that has experienced life and death? You can really boast!"
Jiang Heng Hu Kan: "Last time, the cargo bomb exploded at the seaport. We almost died together, and our ashes were buried together. That time we held hands to escape on Hangshui Street, the dangerous pursuit of soldiers behind us, and the fierce gun battle, these are not counted as experiences.
Life or death? A normal person should have made the Taoyuan Three sworn brothers long ago."
Li Zan cursed in his heart, can normal people kiss each other when they are drunk? Or tongue kiss!
Jiang Heng always paid attention to Li Zan beside him from the corner of his eyes. Every time he passed by a lamppost and the lights were bright, he would tremble in his heart, once, twice... a little out of order.
The brighter the light, the easier it is to see Li Zan, and even the few small brown moles on his face are clearly visible. The eyelids are drooped, and the shallow double eyelid line outlines a curved arc, which is relatively long.
After a while, the traces became lighter when they reached the corners of the eyes.
Once raised, the double eyelid line will deepen, and the eyes will be as bright as stars, as quiet as a cold pool, and as cold as a knife edge.
Even when drunk, he is naturally aggressive.
Jiang Heng's heartbeat was out of order, as if his heart was originally like a wasteland, vast and vast, calm and free, but suddenly a spark fell in, and his heart was like a prairie fire, full of noise and chaos, and he was overwhelmed.
He heard Li Zan ask: "Do you like men?" He lowered his voice and seemed to be hesitating whether he should be so outspoken. He didn't agree but was afraid of hurting the psychology of people with different sexual orientations.
This belongs to Li Zan's inadvertent tenderness.
Jiang Heng said "hmm", but if he wasn't so close, Li Zan might not have heard it, because the background music was the famous square dance music that is famous for its loudness.
Admitting it seemed more uncomfortable than half-hiding it. Li Zan's hand in his pocket unconsciously rubbed it, and tried his best to remind him as kindly as possible: "I'm not."
Jiang Heng still responded, without any major reaction, such as loss and sadness. His expression did not change much, but it could be seen that he was enjoying the harmonious atmosphere among thousands of lights at the moment. After a while, he
Then he said: "Has Captain Li ever had a girlfriend?"
Li Zan: "Having never been in love doesn't mean I'm gay."
He has never been in love. When he was young, he learned reconnaissance knowledge from the elders who took care of him. He was so busy every day that he had no energy to have a new love.
Later, I encountered a big change, and I no longer had the heart to think about love.
Jiang Heng was silent for a long time, and suddenly said in surprise: "In your 29 years of life, not only have you never held hands with anyone, but you have never even had a crush?" He turned to himself and sighed: "Captain Li is so innocent."
Li Zan: "..." He is so mean!
Jiang Heng accepted it and said with a smile: "I was born right. Captain Li, don't worry, I won't break a straight man. If I break a straight man, the sky will strike." The premise is that Li Zan is really a straight man.
.
Li Zan snorted, completely uninterested in their gay world.
The topic ended here, and both of them tacitly agreed not to mention it again. At the same time, they also did not talk about the overly passionate kiss after getting drunk that day.
Li Zan didn't want to mention it, and Jiang Heng didn't want to take advantage of a drunken and infatuated kiss.
With the arrogance in his bones, he doesn't even bother to use the ambiguity that is not firm enough in the unconscious state to further his own love path.
Jiang Heng always smiles on his face, and seems to have a gentle and polite character, but in fact he often does extraordinary things. His family background, education, and IQ... are far superior to ordinary people. He can be said to be at the top of the social pyramid.
Jiang Heng is born with arrogance.
If he wants to get a love, he must be aboveboard, dazzling, frank and flawless.
He said: "Li Zan, I love you."
..
The tags of #亚洲日集团# and #林 Chaoqi# exploded.
A total of three notices were posted on the official website of the Dongcheng District Bureau at 9 o'clock in the morning, explaining the detection of the charred corpse case on 2.17, the detection of the catastrophic fire that killed 15 people at the Guangdong University Research Institute six years ago and the detection of arson and homicide, and the detection of the Ning'an District drug manufacturing factory.
, the drug trafficking case on Hang Shui Street was jointly solved.
Each case is more explosive than the last, and each case is a case that can be searched hotly and arouse great discussion in the society.
The more terrifying case is that every case is related to the Asahi Group. The murderer in the charred corpse case was Liu Chengzhao, the former president of the Asahi Group. This case has been widely circulated on the Internet a few days ago.
Later, Liu Chengzhao's wife Lin Chaoqi came out to hold a press conference. The overwhelming marketing made people sympathize with her plight.
In less than two days, major reversals followed.
It turns out that Lin Chaoqi is the most terrifying person. She was involved in the arson and murder of 15 former classmates and colleagues. She was also the female boss behind the scenes of the drug manufacturing factory. At the same time, she controlled the flow of drugs from Hang Shui Street behind the scenes and conducted a long-standing and wide-ranging drug trade.
Looking back at the news announcement video she released, the woman in it showed a strong and unyielding look with red eyes, turned around and took over the Asahi Group and became a director with the right to speak, and combined with a series of criminal facts such as murder and drug trafficking behind her, it is simply chilling.
It seems like a magical film and television work rather than reality.
If it weren't for the announcement on the official police website and the evidence was conclusive, netizens would definitely make fun of her. But as for Lin Chaoqi's actions, countless netizens were shocked and frightened and speculated whether she was behind Liu Chengzhao's murder and burning of his body.
Although the speculation is wild and wild, it is close to the truth.
It took about two hours for the announcement to reach the level of hot search and national discussion. At 1 o'clock in the afternoon, the topics # Terrifying Wife Reality Version #, #花之花#, #林朝奇魔 reincarnation#
Waiting for it to hit hot searches one after another. This time, there was no money spent on marketing, but there were overwhelming discussions in the square about human nature, psychopathy and crime, and about the pain that the families of the victims have endured that will never heal.
Asahi Group was thoroughly investigated by the economic investigation, its shares plummeted, and it will never come back to life this time.
It didn’t take long for the huge listed group to become an empty shell. In less than a year, it declared bankruptcy and was taken over by the government for reorganization and auction. Somewhat ridiculously, the bankruptcy of Asahi Group did not bring much turmoil to Guangdong City. Only Beitian District
gdp falls.
However, the Asahi Group originally engaged in commercial monopoly, forced many small companies to death, and tyrannically blocked the entry of other group companies. Once it fell, it promoted healthy competition in Beitian Port. After a period of sluggishness, the economy of Beitian Port returned to prosperity.
A prosperous scene.
However, Liu Chengzhao, who thought he was irreplaceable, could no longer see it. Because of the extremely heinous nature of his crime and his cover-up behavior of not reporting the facts of Lin Chaoqi's crimes, he was eventually sentenced to death.
**
The detectives from the Dongcheng District Branch cheered feebly. They had been working on this case all night for several days, and now they were all sluggish and listless after the case was concluded.
Wang stared at the computer screen with two huge dark circles under his eyes, feeling that the words on the screen were dancing. He yawned and said with a thick nasal voice: "Chen Jie, can we apply for a large-capacity server this time?"
Chen Jie drank red date water with empty eyes: "I'll try my best."
Lao Zeng and her lay down side by side, both with huge dark circles under their eyes and as if their kidneys were about to dry up. Ji Chengling looked at them, then looked back at the others sitting or lying in a disheveled manner, and couldn't help but follow suit.
The chair slumped.
He said angrily: "Captain Li said he would treat us to a barbecue tonight."
Chen Jie said vaguely, "Oh yeah."
Lao Zeng: “Where have they gone?”
Ji Chengling: "I don't know. I went out at noon and haven't come back yet."
Lao Zeng: "What are some good movies to watch recently? Please recommend them."
Ji Chengling recommended several movies with high ratings, and continued the conversation on this topic, and invited Chen Jie to join them.
Chen Jie shook her head in thanks and then refused. She said that she wanted to save some energy to stay and have a wonderful love. Recently, food was very scarce and she could only survive on the meager sugar she had before.
Ji Chengling couldn't understand her strange sayings, so he turned around and started chatting with Lao Zeng.
They said that Li Zan was visiting Wei Manjun and Cai Xiuying in the hospital, who were almost recovered from their injuries, and brought Guan Jin over by the way.
In the ward, Guan Jin and Cai Xiuying were talking. Outside the ward, Wei Manjun and Li Zan, who had been discharged, stood face to face.
Wei Manjun: "I saw on the news that none of the people who killed Mingming could escape. Comrade police, thank you."
Li Zan: “Without your assistance, the case would not have progressed so smoothly.”
Most of Wei Manjun's resentment has been eliminated. She avenged her daughter, but her daughter will never come back. This grief cannot be resolved no matter how many times the enemy dies. It cannot be let go. It will be felt at any time and place for the rest of her life.
It kept hurting her.
Wei Manjun didn't say much, thanked him again, and left.
In the long, smooth and pale hospital corridor, her back was hunched, as if she no longer had the strength to straighten up.
With a 'click', the ward door suddenly opened. Guan Jin stuck his head out and looked at Li Zan: "I'm calling you to come in." After saying that, he came out and blocked a door to let Li Zan in.
Cai Xiuying's injury was more serious than Wei Manjun's, and she had to be hospitalized again for observation. The medical expenses came from donations from well-wishers in the society.
She struggled to get up, and when Li Zan came to help, she waved his hand away and said, "I can do it by myself, thank you." Cai Xiuying sat up straight, stared at Li Zan and asked, "When can I take away Guan Yin's ashes?"
Li Zan: "You can do it anytime, just follow some simple procedures." He sat down and asked, "What are your plans for the future?"
Cai Xiuying: "Bring Guan Jin and Guan Yin back, people will return to their roots after death." She continued talking to herself: "Guan Yin bought a house in the city. I heard that the loan is still being paid. I plan to ask someone to sell it.
Go. There is also the one million that that beast Liu Chengzhao put into my card. Can you please help me, comrade, to send it back? Donate it or give it to the state, it’s up to you."
Li Zan promised her: "I will ask someone for help."
Cai Xiuying: "Thank you."
Silent for a long time, Cai Xiuying stared at the ceiling in concentration. As time passed by, she said in a daze: "Comrade police, I'm fine." The implication was to see the guest off.
Li Zan nodded and got up. He thought Cai Xiuying would not speak again, but he heard her hoarsely ask: "Guan Yin is so bullied, why don't you go home?"
Li Zan was silent for a moment and gave a unified comfort statement: "Probably because I don't want to hurt my family."
Cai Xiuying shook her head, and then shook her head again. She knew better than anyone else why Guan Yin didn't go home to seek help. Because of her long-standing preference for boys over girls, Guan Yin saw no hope in her.
Li Zan left the ward and when the door was closed, he saw Cai Xiuying covering her face, crying with pain, self-blame, and regret.
Guan Yin was bullied and left alone. She may have thought about looking back for the warmth of her family, but her mother's constant neglect was the source of her inferiority complex. She did not dare to expect support from her family, and was even more afraid of her mother's disappointed gaze, so she chose to fight alone.
.
Cai Xiuying in the ward fell into endless regret. How could she make Guan Yin think that her mother would not love her until her death?
What a failure she is!
She thought that a healthy and intelligent child with a bright future would not need so much love. Her years of neglect, blaming and demanding had killed her own child.
If she was less stubborn and a little less partial, even if she couldn't balance a bowl of water, at least letting Guan Yin know that she was loved, would it be possible to let her come back when she was most helpless?
Is it possible... Guan Yin won't die?
..
Li Zan was holding a cigarette in his mouth, and the nurse reminded him that smoking was prohibited in the hospital, so he had no choice but to hang the cigarette on his ear and go downstairs to the rest area on the hospital lawn to bask in the sun.
When he was feeling sleepy due to the sun, a shadow suddenly fell over him. When he opened his eyes, he saw Jiang Heng's face very close at hand.
Li Zan stayed still and did not make any fuss about head-banging or other incidents.
He blinked and said hello: "I hope this is a coincidence." He wasn't following me on purpose.
"It's a coincidence." Jiang Heng turned over the back of the bench and sat next to Li Zan: "I occasionally come to the hospital to visit. I remember that the mothers of Wei Ming and Guan Yin... and Mei Juan are both in the hospital.
."
While answering, Li Zan moved away from the bench, trying to keep a distance from Jiang Heng, and explained in a principled manner: "I am not a scumbag who likes to play with ambiguity, and I am not discriminating against you. I am just making a statement."
On the way home that day, I suddenly heard Jiang Heng's confession. Li Zan was expressionless and didn't respond. He was actually shocked.
Although he had long felt that the atmosphere between the two was too ambiguous, as long as he didn't make it clear for a day, Li Zan could pretend to be confused until he drove Jiang Heng away.
But he didn't expect Jiang Heng to confess so suddenly. Under the impatient honking of cars and the background sound of square dancing, he was caught off guard and made a light confession like a joke.
The worst thing is that Jiang Heng was serious, not just playing, not teasing him.
Li Zan had a headache and solemnly refused.
Obviously Jiang Heng did not intend to accept his rejection.
Jiang Heng glanced at Li Zan and said strangely: "I know, you don't need to explain. Let's chat normally and I won't act like a gangster."
After he confessed, he was still as comfortable as before. Sometimes he couldn't even see that he was pursuing her. Instead, Li Zan deliberately kept a distance, which made him sometimes wonder if he was reacting too much.
But he doesn’t understand the ecological environment of the base circle. Will they give up and concentrate on being friends after their confession is rejected?
