Lin Zhiming observed everyone's expressions and subconscious actions.
Some people frowned, some looked ugly, some crossed their arms, and some had blank eyes...
Everyone has their own performance, and these performances will help Lin Zhiming analyze each of their thoughts.
"Mr. Lin, I am willing to do my best to help you avenge Lao Xiao, and I am also willing to do my best to help you find Xiao Ling." Song Junyi was the first to stand up and express his stance.
"Boss Xiao has always had a good relationship with us. This time he encountered such an accident. As colleagues, we should help him find the real culprit and rescue his daughter. I am also willing to help!" said Boss Li.
"Me too!"
"I agree!"
Others followed suit and expressed their opinions.
Lin Zhiming smiled and said, "Thank you for your support, but everyone should know that after Xiao Qinglong's death, everyone here will become a vested interest, so each of you has a motive to kill Xiao Qinglong, so in my case
In my eyes, every one of you is a suspect."
"We also know that there is suspicion on us. Mr. Lin, you can go and investigate. At least I am absolutely clean. I can't possibly attack Lao Xiao. The two of us have a fatal friendship!" Song Junyi said in a deep voice.
"You two have a life-long friendship? How do you say that?" Lin Zhiming asked.
"When the two of us were still following Mr. Lu, we once went to collect debts together, and we were ambushed. At that time, a knife was pointed at my face and cut off. I was so frightened that I didn't even know how to hide.
Fortunately, Lao Xiao pulled me out at this time, and I survived. At that time, the two of us chopped down more than a dozen people with one knife, and then we escaped from the encirclement. So I say that we both had a chance.
Friendship." Song Junyi said.
"That's it!" Lin Zhiming nodded.
"I don't have much contact with Lao Xiao. He is in the north of the city and I am in the south. There is not much overlap in our business. Basically, it is a matter of wells and not rivers." Boss Li continued.
"Xiao Qinglong and I had some grudges before. His men once made trouble in my place, and my men broke his limbs. I paid his men one million to settle the matter. We never met again later.
Not much more." Boss Zhou said.
"Xiao Qinglong and I have no grudges. We have some business dealings, and we often eat together." Boss Lin said at the end.
"Among the four of us, you are the only one who has a grudge against Xiao Qinglong, Boss Zhou, so I think you are still a bit suspicious. As for the three of us, at least for now, I don't think there is any suspicion among the three of us." Boss Li said.
"Fart, my feud with him started more than half a year ago. He also compensated me. That matter has long since passed. Mr. Lin, you have to believe me. I definitely did not kill Xiao Qinglong!" Boss Zhou
He said to Lin Zhiming excitedly.
"Judging from the current situation alone, you are indeed the biggest suspect, but it's okay. You are just a suspect. I am a person who pays attention to evidence. I will not do anything to you without evidence." Lin Zhiming
said.
"Then it's best. I, Mr. Zhou, have behaved upright. If I haven't done anything, I haven't done it. You will never find any evidence." Boss Zhou said.
"Each of you, please tell us what you were doing when the crime occurred last night." Lin Zhiming said.
The bosses looked at each other with ugly expressions on their faces.
To be honest, they are all powerful figures in Anxi City. For people like them, their whereabouts and itineraries are very private matters. As a result, Lin Zhiming asked them on the spot to tell them what they were doing when the crime happened last night.
This is quite disrespectful to them.
However, they could only curse in their hearts, but they did not dare to say anything, because Lin Zhiming was a person who had the ability to make them disappear from this world.
"Let me tell you first." Song Junyi looked at Lin Zhiming and said calmly, "I had dinner with my men last night, and we didn't come out of the hotel until twelve o'clock in the evening. The hotel's surveillance should have caught me.
You only need to check the surveillance to know whether what I said is true or false. Not long after I came out of the hotel, I heard someone said that Lao Xiao had been killed. At that time, I went to the scene immediately, but the scene had been sealed off.
After that, I immediately found Lao Xiao’s men and asked them to help me stabilize the situation. You should also know later that they divided Lao Xiao’s territory, and with the help of Lao Xiao’s men, I finally helped
He retained about half of the territory."
"I can testify that Lao Song was eating. I met Lao Song last night when I was having dinner. He was at Guangfu Restaurant. But I don't know what time we ate. At that time, I saw Lao Song still carrying
Quite a few people." Boss Zhou said.
"Yes, yes, I met Lao Zhou when I was in the lobby." Song Junyi said.
"Are you going to eat too?" Lin Zhiming asked Boss Zhou.
"Yes, Guangfu Restaurant is our better restaurant. I invited a few guests to dinner last night, but we left early, around eight o'clock, and then went to sing again until eleven.
I went home around o'clock. Because I drank too much, I went to bed immediately after I got home. While I was sleeping, I heard from my subordinates that Lao Xiao had been killed, so I asked my subordinates to seize Lao Xiao's territory." Zhou.
The boss said.
"What about you?" Lin Zhiming looked at Boss Lin and Boss Li.
"I was in my casino last night. Because last night was a Saturday, the casino business was very good. I was watching the casino there until about twelve o'clock, and then I received the news that Xiao Qinglong was dead. I
He realized that this was a good opportunity to seize the territory, so he led his men to seize the territory." Boss Lin said.
"Last night... I was at my wife's place. I recently found a wife from a vocational college. I basically stayed at her place at night. We were together from eight o'clock in the evening to around twelve o'clock in the morning. Then I received a report from my subordinates.
He said that Lao Xiao was dead, and then I came out to grab the territory." Boss Li said.
"So according to what the four of you said, you all have alibi." Lin Zhiming said.
"I think there is something wrong with the alibi of Boss Li and Boss Zhou. They both said they were at home, but no one could prove that they were home at that time. Lao Song and I both have many certifications. Lao Song was in the hotel.
People, and I am from the casino." Boss Lin said.
"Lin Xiangqian, do you have a grudge against me? You said I have a problem twice in a row?" Boss Zhou asked Boss Lin with a dark face.
"I'm just telling the truth." Boss Lin shrugged and said, "According to what everyone has said so far, your suspicion is actually the biggest. You have a motive and you don't have enough alibi. In addition, I heard that you
There was a large-scale recruitment campaign some time ago, and it seems that we have recruited a lot of warriors with strong combat effectiveness?"
"Is this happening?" Lin Zhiming asked.
"Well... there is such a thing, but Mr. Lin, I did not recruit troops to kill Lao Xiao, I have a purpose!" said Boss Zhou.
"What purpose?" Lin Zhiming asked.
"I... want to build a team to participate in the CFA Professional League. You must know this best. Haven't there been a lot of people building teams recently? It just so happens that we don't have a local team in Anxi City, so I just want to get this
Come down, that's why I went to recruit troops." Boss Zhou explained.
Lin Zhiming nodded, Boss Zhou's explanation was quite reasonable.
"Mr. Lin, if you don't believe me, I can ask my little wife to come over. If you ask her, can she know if I was at her place last night?" Boss Li said.
"This kind of thing can also be prepared in advance." Boss Lin said.
"Then I'm telling you that you can prepare in advance. It seems that you are not at the scene of the crime, but who can guarantee that you did not hire someone to kill Lao Xiao?" Boss Li said with a dark face.
"You're talking nonsense. At least when I was in the casino, I had a few senior officers around me. Because we had to keep the place under control, how could I send someone to kill Lao Xiao?" Boss Lin said with a frown.
"My brothers and I are also in the hotel." Song Junyi said.
"You don't need to argue. I have my own judgment. Now I ask you one last question. After you answer it, you can leave." Lin Zhiming said.
"What's the problem?" Song Junyi asked.
"What kind of person is Xiao Qinglong in your eyes?" Lin Zhiming asked.
"Let me tell you this first. After all, I have known him for decades. Xiao Qinglong is brave and resourceful, and he is righteous. There is nothing to say to his brothers and friends!" Song Junyi said.
"In my eyes, Xiao Qinglong is a bit crazy and protective of his shortcomings," said Boss Zhou.
"I have nothing to do with Xiao Qinglong, so it's hard to say who he is," said Boss Li.
"Xiao Qinglong is very shrewd. Be careful when doing business with him, otherwise you may be cheated by him." Boss Lin said.
"Okay, I know almost what I want to know. In fact, I don't think anyone is a big suspect, so it's hard to make any judgment now. The murderer may be among you, or he may not be there. I
I hope that the conversation in the afternoon will not cause you any trouble. Finally, if what happened to Xiao Qinglong’s family last night was really done by one of you, then I will give him a chance to hand over Xiao Ling. I will not continue with this matter.
We must investigate, after all, Xiao Qinglong was in the Jianghu, and it is understandable that he died in the Jianghu fight, but his daughter is innocent!" Lin Zhiming said seriously.
The bosses looked at each other, but no one spoke.
"Tonight I will hold a dinner party in the Mirage Hall on the sixth floor of the hotel. If Xiao Ling appears in the hotel lobby before the dinner begins, I will leave Anxi City after the dinner. If she does not appear, then... I really have no choice but to die.
Okay, no more words, I won’t see you off, please do as you please." Lin Zhiming said.
Everyone stood up to say goodbye to Lin Zhiming, and then left the room.
