The brothers were all experts in investigating the scene. After Qiao Yanfang's order, they automatically divided into groups of two and started searching.
The bedding on the bed was opened layer by layer and examined, and the underside of the bed was carefully inspected. The things on the table were picked up one by one and viewed, and then placed in another place alone. The clothes in the closet were also removed one by one.
Come out and check all pockets. Move all movable furniture and check it, especially the floor.
The oil paintings and picture frames on the wall were all taken off and examined carefully, and even the inside of the vase had to be carefully looked at!
At this time, Chen Zifeng rushed in and asked in a low voice: "What's going on!"
Qiao Yanfang led him to the window and pointed to a big tree at the foot of the hillside, "Someone climbs that tree every night to observe the situation in the room! Someone has been watching this room for a long time!"
Then, he told him what happened in the Huguang Guild Hall and the exchange of fire with Kawakami!
She continued: "Let me tell you, the Japanese don't want us to find out Chu Dongping from the owner of the weapons store! The Japanese mean that if we want to check, we can only check here!"
"Xiao Qiao, we actually want to listen to the Japanese!" Chen Zifeng stared at her with a strange look on his face.
"Don't think too much. Only in this way can we find out clearly and see what the Japanese mean!"
"The first thing is, in this room, the doors and windows are tightly closed. How did people get in? How did they get out!" Chen Zifeng turned around and immediately asked the question.
Xiao Ancheng said: "When you say that, I think about it. Let's check the key first."
Chen Zifeng nodded, "Okay! I'll check the keys first!"
8-33
Chen Zifeng took a brother downstairs to the front desk.
As soon as the girl at the front desk heard that he wanted to check the keys, she hurriedly went inside to find the supervisor. It was the senior supervisor who came out.
Chen Zifeng said: "Hello, Mr. Gao, we meet again."
The senior manager had a smile on his face, "Sir, why don't you come and check on 206?"
Chen Zifeng said: "Exactly, I want to know, can outsiders have access to the key to our Daguan Building?"
The senior manager said proudly: "Sir, you have found the key. But I also tell you that it is impossible to touch our key. We only have two keys for each room here. Give one to the guest."
, let’s keep one as a spare.”
As he said this, he took out a large bunch of keys from under the counter.
Chen Zifeng took a look at the bunch of keys and couldn't help but be a little surprised. These spare keys were all worn on an iron ring. The key point was that the iron ring was welded! If you want to use the spare keys, you have to take the whole bunch away!
But the bunch of keys is right under the nose of the girl at the front desk! It's almost impossible to steal the bunch of keys to open the door!
He asked: "So, Miss Zhao still has a key in her hand, right?"
The senior manager said: "Yes! Let me tell you, when the case first occurred, we checked the key in Miss Zhao's hand! That key and the key to her house were strung together! And they were tied with a thin chain.
On her small handbag! Sir, think about it, if someone stole Miss Zhao’s key and tried to match it with another, Miss Zhao would have discovered it at that time!”
Chen Zifeng thought for a while and asked again: "When the accident happened, your waiter must have opened the door with this bunch of keys."
The senior manager said: "Yes. The guests next door heard that something was wrong in that room, so they came to call us. Our Xiao He took this bunch of keys to open the door. But it was inserted inside, and he couldn't open the door even with the key! The door was last
It was the police who broke it open!"
Chen Zifeng turned around in a circle and suddenly looked at Director Gao with doubtful eyes, "You mean Xiao He? Isn't it Song Guibo?"
The senior manager said: "That night, the two of them were on duty. When the accident happened, they were both there."
Chen Zifeng nodded and said nothing more. Regarding the key, the investigation is over here.
8-34
Chen Zifeng returned to room 206. The people in the room were struggling to move the large cabinet.
Qiao Yanfang said: "I looked along the wall and saw something behind the cabinet! Damn it, this guy is too heavy!"
Chen Zifeng also leaned against the wall and looked behind him. It was a little dark behind the cabinet, and there seemed to be something there.
He pushed the standing cabinet, but it didn't move at all! Several brothers came over to move it again, but it still didn't move at all!
Finally, someone was sent to call the senior manager.
The senior manager said: "This is hardwood furniture. It is very heavy! Sir, it is also very valuable. Don't break it."
Chen Zifeng said: "Can you think of a way to move it a little so that we can take out the things behind it."
The senior manager kept saying: "There is a way, there is a way."
He went out for a while and brought in a long wooden board and a wooden square.
He smiled and said: "We often encounter this kind of thing here. The guest dropped something behind the cabinet, so we use this method to take it out for the guest."
He walked to the side of the cabinet, inserted a long wooden board under the cabinet, and then placed a wooden square under the board. He pressed down a little harder, and the cabinet lifted up a little. He pushed to the side again, and the cabinet was indeed moved a little.
.
Chen Zifeng laughed and said, "Mr. Gao, you are really capable, really capable. Isn't this the principle of leverage?"
The senior manager was even more proud, "Everyone knows the truth, but I just can't remember it when I use it."
A brother leaned against the wall, reluctantly put his hand in, and soon took out a long thing wrapped in newspaper from the back.
At this time, Qiao Yanfang shouted, "It can't be... it can't be..."
As soon as the brother opened the newspaper, it was like damn! It was exactly the same as the wooden mace that Li San found! They were a pair! There was just no blood on this wooden mace!
They stared at each other with their eyes wide open, wondering what the appearance of this wooden mace meant!
Chen Zifeng twisted his lips and said, "Damn it, I'm going to interrogate that Chu Dongping again!"
9-1
Military Commission, Department of the Executive Director of Military Justice, in the interrogation room.
Chu Dongping had been sitting alone in the interrogation room, which was as deserted as a tomb, for a long time.
He looked around uneasily, touched the table, and straightened his clothes, but he didn't know what was happening in front of him.
9-2
In the observation room.
Chen Zifeng, Xiao Ancheng, Qiao Yanfang, Leng Yue and others stood in the observation room, all looking at Chu Dongping who was sitting in the interrogation room.
Qiao Yanfang said: "Looking at him, he seems to be calm."
Chen Zifeng said: "I wonder if he can still keep his composure when asked!"
Xiao Ancheng said: "He is just a small colonel and division chief. Maybe he is being taken advantage of!"
Leng Yue said calmly: "Let's watch it together."
Several other people looked back at her, guessing what she meant.
Leng Yue said softly: "I wonder if we can see clearly!"
Several other people understood this sentence, at least roughly.
What she means is, can we get any clues about the Japanese "Barrel Plan" from this Chu Dongping?
They all speculated that a series of things that happened in Chongqing and Chengdu were related to the "Barrel Project", but they were just speculations! Chief Gong asked them to come up with evidence! If they can't see clearly, this evidence will be difficult to obtain.
!
At this time, Wu Jiancheng ran in sweating profusely and handed a long thing wrapped in newspaper to Chen Zifeng.
Chen Zifeng opened the newspaper and looked at it. It was the wooden mace that killed Yang Shangzhou, and the blood stains had turned black!
He wrapped it up again, picked up the wooden mace he had just found today, and said with a crooked mouth: "I'm asking, An is watching! You two are watching outside! Call me if you need anything!"
9-3
In the inquiry room.
Chen Zifeng entered the interrogation room with two wooden maces wrapped in newspapers and looked at Chu Dongping with a sneer.
Chu Dongping looked at him uneasily, and then looked at Xiao Ancheng who came in from behind. He was moving back and forth on his chair, feeling very uneasy.
Chen Zifeng sat down at the table and placed two wooden maces on the ground.
Xiao Ancheng sat down next to him, folded his arms in front of his chest, and looked at Chu Dongping.
Chen Zifeng stared at Chu Dongping for a moment, and finally said: "Sir Chu, when we talked last time, was there anything else you didn't tell us? Yes!"
Chu Dongping said: "As long as I know, I will tell you! Let me tell you, I will never kill Miss Zhao!"
"We told you last time! We never thought you killed Miss Zhao!"
"I don't know anything else! I told you everything I know!"
Chen Zifeng picked up the wooden mace he found today from the ground, put it on the table, and slowly unfolded the newspaper, "Sir Chu, did you tell me about this thing?"
Chu Dongping looked at the wooden mace in front of him and was a little surprised, but it was not serious.
He frowned and said, "What's wrong with this? This is an old cultural relic I bought!"
"Where did you buy it, Commander Chu?"
"It's at the Huguang Guild Hall. There is a small shop there that specializes in ancient weapons. I bought it there! What's wrong!"
"How much did it cost?"
"Two hundred yuan! Is there anything wrong with this? It's not illegal to buy this!"
"This is Chief Chu's collection, right?"
"Yes! What's wrong!"
"Where is Mr. Chu's collection?"
"Of course I put it at home! You raided my house? Why did you raid my house!" Chu Dongping almost jumped up.
"Because this thing was not found in your home!"
"What? Impossible! There is a second-hand cabinet in my study that is dedicated to collecting these things! What, this, this, is not from my home? From where?" Chu Dongping looked at him in even more shock.
"Let me tell you, I found this from behind the cabinet in Room 206 of Teyuan! It's very well hidden!"
"What? What did you say? Impossible! This thing is kept in my house! This is a pair of wooden maces. Where is the other one? Where did you put the other one? Didn't you find it?"
Chen Zifeng sneered, picked up another wooden mace from the ground, and slowly opened the newspaper.
"Sir Chu, is this the other one? Please take a good look!"
When Chu Dongping saw the blood stains on the wooden mace, he was shocked, "This, what's the blood on this?"
