"What if I don't go to CSY with you?" Zhang Zhiming looked at Xu Lang and said provocatively.
Xu Lang stood up, looked down at Zhang Zhiming, smiled, and said, "Then I can only ask you to come with us."
At this moment, the manager Xu Lang saw on the first floor ran in sweating profusely. Regardless of whether Xu Lang was present, he walked straight to Zhang Zhiming, leaned over and whispered in his ear.
A few words or something.
I don’t know what the KTV manager said to Zhang Zhiming. Zhang Zhiming, who was looking at Xu Lang very provocatively, suddenly turned ugly. He looked at Xu Lang and said angrily: "Xu Lang,
What do you want to do? Why did you seize my KTV? Do you have any procedures?"
Before Xu Lang could speak, another person's voice sounded at the door of Box 666.
"Dynasty KTV is suspected of engaging in prostitution activities. We conducted searches and seizures in accordance with the law. This is a search warrant."
Du Ziqiao walked in from the door, took out a document with a red seal, and placed it in front of Zhang Zhiming.
After seeing the document, Zhang Zhiming was speechless. He glanced at Xu Lang hatefully, his face changed rapidly, and he didn't know what he was thinking. Then, he lowered his head and started to rummage for something on the coffee table full of clutter.
Xu Lang looked at Zhang Zhiming like this, he smiled and said: "Boss Zhang, you can come with me now."
"Wait a minute." Zhang Zhiming said impatiently.
"Are you on your cell phone?" Xu Lang asked with a smile.
"How do you know?" Zhang Zhiming raised his head and looked at Xu Lang in surprise.
Xu Lang smiled, pointed at the corner of the coffee table, and said, "The phone is over there."
Zhang Zhiming looked in the direction Xu Lang's finger pointed, and sure enough he saw the mobile phone among the pile of debris. He quickly reached out to take it, but Xu Lang got the phone first.
After Xu Lang got the phone, he looked at it and found that it was the latest Apple 7 phone. The phone was very new. The casing and back of the phone were all gold and inlaid with diamonds. It seemed that he wanted to tell everyone who saw the phone
, He is very rich. Indeed, Zhang Zhiming has made a lot of money by relying on Dynasty KTV. At least, Xu Lang will not buy such a mobile phone. It is not that he has no money to buy it, but it is completely unnecessary, neither practical nor useful.
Convenient, not as easy to use as the old push-button phones.
"Are you looking for your cell phone to call someone?" Xu Lang asked with a smile while playing with his cell phone.
"Give me the phone." Zhang Zhiming said in a commanding tone.
Hearing Zhang Zhiming's tone of voice, he raised his eyebrows subconsciously, then looked at Zhang Zhiming and said, "Boss Zhang, if you talk like this, I will be embarrassed."
Zhang Zhiming heard Xu Lang's underlying meaning, and he quickly smiled and said: "Um, Team Leader Xu, please give me your phone back, and I'll make a call."
"Oh, who should you call? Your family, or Vice Mayor Zhang?" Xu Lang asked.
Zhang Zhiming looked at Xu Lang with a gloomy expression and said nothing.
Xu Lang did not continue to embarrass Zhang Zhiming, and returned the phone in his hand to Zhang Zhiming, then looked at him and smiled meaningfully.
After Zhang Zhiming took the phone, he started making calls without seeing the smile on Xu Lang's face.
At this time, who can Zhang Zhiming call?
Xu Lang knew without thinking that the call must have been to Deputy Mayor Zhang.
Sure enough, Zhang Zhiming's call was connected, and he said: "Brother, something happened. The police came to my KTV. The leader was Xu Lang from CSY, and with him was Du Ziqiao from the Second Criminal Investigation Team...
..."
When Zhang Zhiming was on the phone, Xu Lang sat down again, picked up the glass of wine he had just had, took a sip, then raised his head and glanced at Zhang Zhiming who was talking on the phone, then turned his head, looked at Du Ziqiao and smiled.
Du Ziqiao understood the meaning behind Xu Lang's smile, and he smiled too, and then looked at Zhang Zhiming on the phone.
At the beginning, Zhang Zhiming was talking angrily about everything that was happening in the KTV. From time to time, he would look at Xu Lang and Du Ziqiao provocatively. The meaning of his eyes was self-evident. However, after he finished talking about everything that happened in the KTV, he didn't know.
What did the other party say on the phone? Zhang Zhiming's face suddenly turned pale. He looked at Xu Lang blankly, at a loss.
Zhang Zhiming handed the phone to Xu Lang and said with a slightly trembling voice: "Answer the phone."
Xu Lang put down his wine glass, took the phone, and quickly glanced at the name on the phone. It was indeed Deputy Mayor Zhang.
"Hey, what are you looking for for me?" Xu Lang said in a calm tone, as if he didn't know it was Deputy Mayor Zhang on the other end of the phone.
"It's Xu Lang, the team leader of CSY, right?" A majestic voice came from the other end of the phone.
"I am Xu Lang, who are you?"
"I am Zhang Guoqiang. I already know about the Dynasty KTV matter. Just do whatever you want. You don't need to consider my thoughts. In the face of a murder case, no one is allowed to interfere with the police's handling of the case."
"Okay, Deputy Mayor Zhang, I feel relieved with your words and things will be much easier to handle."
"Well, so be it. However, I would like to remind Team Leader Xu that although investigating murder cases is a major matter, you should not be too harsh when dealing with innocent people."
After the other party said this, he hung up the phone.
After Xu Lang put down his cell phone, he sneered and said, "It's interesting to talk to me in an official tone."
After saying this, Xu Lang raised his head, looked at Zhang Zhiming, smiled, and said to Du Ziqiao
Said: "Take it away."
Maybe Zhang Guoqiang said something to Zhang Zhiming on the phone, maybe Zhang Zhiming knew that Zhang Guoqiang couldn't help him anymore, so he lost his previous arrogance and followed Xu Lang and the others out of the 666 box very cooperatively. As for the KTV manager, he was also taken away.
, and those women who were surrounding Zhang Zhiming just now will naturally be taken away.
When Xu Lang and the others came to the lobby on the first floor from the fourth floor, Xu Lang found that the huge hall was already overcrowded at this moment. In addition to the police, there were many disheveled men and women. Among them, the one who was wearing sexy clothes was exposed
There are the most women.
At this moment, these people were all lined up in two lines, and then they were taken out of the hall by the police and got into the police car.
Xu Lang did not care about these matters. CSY did not need to intervene in the anti-pornography and illegal activities. These men and women were naturally handled by colleagues from the police station and public security bureau. As for how to deal with them, it depends on how much they know and what they have done in the KTV.
If you just come here to play and sing, nothing will happen. If you come here and do other things, you will naturally be punished and detained.
As for Zhang Zhiming and the KTV manager, Xu Lang and others took them back to CSY for interrogation.
————
In CSY Interrogation Room No. 1, Zhang Zhiming sat on the interrogation chair, while Xu Lang sat opposite him.
Xu Lang did not put handcuffs on Zhang Zhiming. Although Dynasty KTV was suspected of engaging in prostitution, until the truth was found out, Zhang Zhiming was just a criminal suspect and was not suitable for handcuffs.
"Where were you on March 19th?" Xu Lang asked straight to the point, seeing that Zhang Zhiming did not beat around the bush.
This may be Zhang Zhiming's first time entering the interrogation room. He sat on the interrogation chair and looked at the surveillance cameras around the room. There was a layer of fine beads of sweat on his oily face. It was obvious that he was very nervous.
Indeed, Zhang Zhiming has a cousin who is the deputy mayor. When he is doing business, no matter who sees him, he will give him some face. When has he ever been treated like this? Moreover, Xu Lang still uses the method of interrogating prisoners.
Talking to him in a tone that made Zhang Zhiming feel even more uncomfortable.
Perhaps because he was accustomed to living a luxurious life, Zhang Zhiming's figure had long been out of shape. He was very fat. Sitting on the interrogation chair, Xu Lang could not even see the back of the chair.
"When is March 19th?" Zhang Zhiming looked at Xu Lang in confusion.
"The day before yesterday." Xu Lang said lightly.
"The day before yesterday? The day before yesterday I was on a business trip in Yanjing City." Zhang Zhiming stretched out his fat hand and wiped the sweat from his forehead and said.
"Who did you go with? What did you do? Who can testify for you?" Xu Lang continued to ask.
"Team Leader Xu, I admit that a murder occurred in my KTV. I shouldn't have started operating privately before the case was investigated clearly. However, I didn't kill the person. Don't use this tone of interrogation.
Can you talk to me?" Zhang Zhiming said with some dissatisfaction.
"I was just asking you where you went, what you did, and who you met the day before yesterday. When did I say you killed someone?" Xu Lang looked at Zhang Zhiming and asked.
When Xu Lang said this, Zhang Zhiming opened his mouth, but was speechless when Xu Lang retorted. He raised his hand again and wiped the sweat from his forehead, looked at Xu Lang and said, "Can you give me a glass of water?
"
Xu Lang did not speak, but stood up, poured a glass of water for Zhang Zhiming, and placed it in front of him.
After Zhang Zhiming took the water cup, he drank it in one gulp. After putting down the cup, he said: "I went to Yanjing City alone, without anyone else."
"Why are you going to Yanjing City?" Xu Lang asked.
"Go...to meet a woman?" Zhang Zhiming hesitated and said.
"Woman? Who?" Xu Lang asked.
"Her name is Zhang Xiaoxi. I met her when I went to Yanjing City at the end of last year."
"Zhang Xiaoxi?"
Hearing this name, Xu Lang's heart suddenly moved. He immediately thought of Liang Zheyan's last girlfriend, who also seemed to be named Zhang Xiaoxi. Could they be the same person?
Although Xu Lang was thinking about Zhang Xiaoxi, there was no expression on his face. He looked at Zhang Zhiming and continued to ask: "You went to Yanjing City just to see this woman?"
Zhang Zhiming nodded.
"What is your relationship with Zhang Xiaoxi?"
"Yes...yes..."
"Crack."
Xu Lang slapped the table and scolded: "What is the relationship?"
Zhang Zhiming was startled by Xu Lang's sudden action and said quickly: "It's a lover relationship. She is a woman I kept in Yanjing City."
"What are you doing to find Zhang Xiaoxi?" Xu Lang asked.
"I went all the way to Yanjing City to find her, what else could I do? They are all men, you know." Zhang Zhiming glanced at Xu Lang, lowered his head and said.
"Are you sure you will be in Yanjing City on the 19th?" Xu Lang narrowed his eyes and asked.
Zhang Zhiming nodded and said, "I'm sure, I took a plane there. If you don't believe me, you can go to the airport to check."
"Then when did you come back to S City?" Xu Lang asked again.
"Yesterday afternoon, I received a call from Zhuo Wei. He told me that something happened at the KTV. He said that someone died in my store. Moreover, the dead person was the son of that old fox Liang Borong. I rushed back from Yanjing City.
of."
"Since you already know that a murder occurred at KTV, why do you continue to operate KTV even though you know that I asked Dynasty KTV to suspend operations? Does Liang Zheyan's death have anything to do with you?"
"
It’s unfair, Team Leader Xu, the death of that boy Liang Zheyan had nothing to do with me.” Zhang Zhiming hurriedly defended.
"Then why do you want to stay open?"
"Officer Xu, do you know how much money Dynasty KTV makes in one night? There are so many KTV employees, and they all need to be supported by me. If KTV goes out of business, what will happen to those employees? What will happen to the KTV public relations ladies? The case will not be solved for a day.
, can I not open for one day? If that is the case, those girls will have been poached by other KTVs by then, and my losses will be huge."
"So, you just decided on your own to continue the business?" Xu Lang looked at Zhang Zhiming and asked.
Zhang Zhiming nodded.
"Then why did you ask your employees not to cooperate with us when our people went to KTV to investigate the cause of Liang Zheyan's death?"
"No, Officer Xu, I have not cooperated with your police investigation. You see, I am very cooperative now, don't you?" Zhang Zhiming said anxiously and sincerely.
Xu Lang didn't speak, but looked at Zhang Zhiming with a half-smile. Even now, this guy is still playing tricks on Xu Lang.
Xu Lang was not polite to Zhang Zhiming and said bluntly: "Do you think we, CSY, brought you here just because of your dirty KTV activities? It seems that you still don't know what CSY is. If you don't be honest,
If you tell me, I think the things and things I found in your KTV today are enough to send you to jail. Not to mention that your cousin is the deputy mayor, even the governor. He can't save you, it's impossible.
Save you, not to mention, he is just your cousin, not your brother."
Zhang Zhiming was silent. I don’t know whether it was Xu Lang’s very explicit words that made him silent, or whether he himself realized this. In short, Zhang Zhiming said after being silent for a long time: “Actually, I don’t want to open the business so early.
, After all, KTV has just lost people, and there are not many people coming when it opens at this time. However, Zhuo Wei told me that if we do not continue to operate now, our losses will be huge, and the passenger flow will be greatly reduced, those
The public relations lady and the young master will also leave our Dynasty KTV because of this. I was also obsessed with money, so I did this."
"Then you admit that the KTV staff refused to cooperate with the police investigation?" Xu Lang asked.
Zhang Zhiming nodded, and then he thought of something and suddenly said: "Although I asked them not to cooperate with your investigation, this suggestion was made by Zhuo Wei, and he implemented it personally."
"Zhuo Wei? Who is Zhuo Wei?" Xu Lang asked doubtfully.
"Zhuo Wei, Zhuo Wei is the manager of our KTV. You saw him in box 666 just now." Zhang Zhiming said,
"You said it was his suggestion and implementation to keep the KTV open and to issue the gag order?" Xu Lang asked.
Zhang Zhiming nodded quickly and said, "Yes, that's him."
Hearing what Zhang Zhiming said, Xu Lang suddenly fell into deep thought.
He thought of the KTV manager named Zhuo Wei. When Xu Lang saw him at Dynasty KTV just now, he thought he was just a person engaged in entertainment venues and didn't think much about it, because Xu Lang saw Zhuo Wei.
What I saw was just the normal behavior of a manager in the face of unexpected situations. There was nothing unusual and clear about it. However, now it seems that this Zhuo Wei is not that simple.
In addition, Xu Lang also remembered something.
Among the many doubts in Liang Zheyan's case, one of them is that when Liang Zheyan went to Dynasty KTV, the surveillance on the third floor was turned off, and the person on duty at that time was Zhuo Wei's bodyguard and confidant Zhang Guoxiong.
After Liang Zheyan was killed, Zhang Guoxiong disappeared without a trace, as if he had disappeared from the world. The police could not find him no matter what.
When Xu Lang and others learned about this situation, they focused their attention on Zhang Guoxiong and did not pay attention to the KTV manager Zhuo Wei. Although the first person to discover Liang Zheyan's body was the KTV cleaning staff, the call
It was indeed Zhuo Wei who called the police. As the manager of the KTV, it was a normal choice to call the police after discovering the body. Therefore, Xu Lang and the others did not suspect anything at the time.
Now, after hearing what Zhang Zhiming said, coupled with the disappearance of Zhang Guoxiong and the closure of the surveillance on the third floor of the KTV, Xu Lang felt that Liang Zheyan's death might have something to do with Zhuo Wei, or at least, he must know something.
Thinking of this, Xu Lang came back to his senses and prepared to interrogate Zhuo Wei.
However, when Xu Lang came to his senses, he remembered what Zhang Zhiming had just said that he went to Yanjing City on the 19th and met Zhang Xiaoxi. So, was this Zhang Xiaoxi Zhang Xiaoxi, Liang Zheyan's ex-girlfriend?
Lang is not sure, but there is a way to determine whether the two people are the same person.
The easiest way is of course to look at photos.
Thinking of this, Xu Lang got up and left interrogation room No. 1. Not long after, he came back. When he came back, he had a photo in his hand. He handed the photo to Zhang Zhiming, and then asked: "Are you going to Yanjing?"
Is this the Zhang Xiaoxi you see in the city?"
Zhang Zhiming took the photo and took a look at it, then nodded and said, "That's right."
"Are you sure?" Xu Lang asked, looking at Zhang Zhiming's expression.
Zhang Zhiming nodded and said with great certainty: "I'm sure, we've slept together many times, how could I not be sure."
Hearing this, Xu Lang frowned. He felt that things were getting more and more interesting, because the photos he showed to Zhang Zhiming were the photos of the police investigating Liang Zheyan's last girlfriend, Zhang Xiaoxi.
