Now that Shen Kaiwen and Wang Wenruo's criminal suspicions are getting bigger and bigger, Xu Lang thought for a while and said to Lai Pi: "You should continue to investigate Shen Kaiwen's clues, starting with his relatives, friends, and interpersonal relationships. Since he has returned In City S, there will definitely be clues, so try to find him."
Lai Pi nodded, turned around and prepared to go out.
"Wait a moment."
Just when Lai Pi was about to walk out of the office door, Xu Lang suddenly called out to Lai Pi.
Lai Pi stopped, turned his head, looked at Xu Lang with a puzzled expression, and asked, "What other tasks are there?"
"Find a way to contact Shen Kaiwen's wife Zhou Xiaoru. Maybe, she may know what Shen Kaiwen is doing when he comes back this time."
Lai Pi nodded.
Xu Lang thought for a while and said, "By the way, you are going to investigate and see why Shen Kevin suddenly took his family abroad half a year ago and see if anything happened during this period."
"Okay, are there any other arrangements?" Lai Pi asked.
Xu Lang thought for a while, shook his head, waved his hands and said, "That's it for now."
Hearing what Xu Lang said, Lai Pi turned around and left.
After Lai Pi left, Lu Xing walked in with a file and placed it on Xu Lang's desk.
Xu Lang looked at the files in front of him, raised his head and looked at Lu Xing with a puzzled look on his face and asked, "What is this?"
"Didn't you ask me to find you the files related to Tan Yanxue? You can take a look."
Xu Lang glanced at Lu Xing, then looked down at the documents on the table, and asked, "Are they all here?"
"Yes, they are all here."
"Where is Tan Yanxue? Has he been released from prison?" Xu Lang asked.
"No, I contacted Fengyun Women's Prison. According to the prison, Tan Yanxue will be released from prison tomorrow."
"Being released from prison tomorrow?"
Xu Lang suddenly raised his head and looked at Lu Xing, as if he wanted to get a definite answer.
Lu Xing nodded and said, "Yes, I will be released from prison tomorrow."
Xu Lang frowned, thought for a moment, nodded, and said nothing.
Lu Xing waited for a while and saw that Xu Lang had no arrangements, so he said, "It's nothing, I'll go out to work?"
Xu Lang nodded, then raised his head, looked at Lu Xing and asked, "By the way, have you seen the surveillance near the hospital?"
Lu Xing turned around, nodded, and said, "I saw it."
"Did you find anything?" Xu Lang asked while looking at the files on the table.
Lu Xing shook his head and said: "Not yet, give me some time, and there will definitely be clues."
Xu Lang nodded and said no more, while Lu Xing also turned and left Xu Lang's office.

In the next few hours, Xu Lang kept looking through the files related to Tan Yanxue's case. After reading these files, Xu Lang frowned.
In Tan Yanxue's car accident, the victims were a family of three. The deceased was named Li Chun'an. Li Chun'an was only 48 years old twelve years ago. The two injured were his wife Wang Yamei and his daughter Li Zhaojing.
When the car accident happened, Li Chun'an was driving home with his wife and daughter. Li Chun'an died on the spot. Wang Yamei was also seriously injured because he was sitting in the passenger seat. Although he did not die on the spot, he received emergency rescue afterwards. , saved a life, but Wang Yamei became a vegetative state and has been lying on the hospital bed. Twelve years have passed, and she still has not woken up.
Li Zhaojing was sitting in the back row and was seriously injured. However, she did not become a vegetative state, but her face was disfigured. One eye was blind and half of her face was scarred for life. She was only twenty-two years old when the accident happened.
, has just graduated from college, twelve years have passed, she is thirty-four years old, a middle-aged woman, and should have already gotten married and had children.
When he saw the names of Li Chunan and Wang Yamei, Xu Lang felt very strange. However, when he saw the name Li Zhaojing, Xu Lang felt a little familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.
So, Xu Lang began to look through a lot of files piled up on the table. Finally, Xu Lang found this name among Lu Jianwei's related files.
After the Lu Jianwei case occurred, the police investigated Lu Jianwei's interpersonal relationships in detail. During this process, Xu Lang discovered that Li Zhaojing was actually Lu Jianwei's first love, and the two were boyfriend and girlfriend. However, not many people knew about this, or
Later, when the police were investigating Lu Jianwei's college affairs, they accidentally discovered that when Li Zhaojing had a car accident, Lu Jianwei was still serving in the army.
According to the records in the file, after Li Zhaojing's car accident, Li Zhaojing broke up with Lu Jianwei, who was still serving in the army. Since then, the two have not been in contact. Therefore, after the Lu Jianwei case eight years ago, although the police also
I found Li Zhaojing and asked about the situation, but Li Zhaojing knew very little about Lu Jianwei's situation, so there were not many records.
With this discovery, Xu Lang suddenly thought of a lot.
The MMS message that Xu Lang received before using virtual software only had a photo on it. The photo only contained reports about Tan Yanxue's first trial twelve years ago. It seemed that the two cases Tan Yanxue and Xu Lang were investigating were nothing.
Xu Lang was also very confused about the direct relationship at the time, but now it seems that Tan Yanxue's case may have a certain connection with the two current cases.
The Punisher is the codename used by Lu Jianwei eight years ago. He killed seven people in a row. Later, Lu Jianwei committed suicide out of fear of crime, and the Punisher disappeared. Now, the Punisher appears again, which shows that the current Punisher and the Eight
Lu Jianwei's The Punisher from years ago, there is some connection between the two.
Xu Lang leaned back, lay on the chair, closed his eyes, and began to
I replayed the survey results in my mind and began to try to build a network.
The case started when Xu Lang received the courier with manpower. As Xu Lang and the others investigated, Zhang Jinzhong and Wang Wenruo appeared in Xu Lang's field of vision. This led to the Sun Qihang car accident case ten years ago, and in Xu Lang's case
When Lang and others investigated the case of Sun Qihang's car accident, they found that Sun Qihang had disappeared more than half a month ago.
Just when Xu Lang and others were focused on investigating Sun Qihang, Zhang Jinzhong disappeared while lying in the hospital ward. Then, Sun Qihang appeared. In full view of the public, Lu committed suicide, and the symbol of 'punishment' was found on his body.
Immediately afterwards, Zhang Jinzhong's body also appeared at the door of the General Security Bureau. It also had the character "punishment" on it. According to this character, it was implicated in the Punisher murder case that shocked City S eight years ago, that is, the Lu Jianwei case.
Just as Xu Lang and the others continued to investigate based on these clues, and the case gradually became clear, Shen Kaiwen appeared again in the police's sight. With the appearance of Shen Kaiwen, the Sun Qihang car accident case ten years ago, and the Lu Jianwei murder case eight years ago,...
The two current cases seem to be related to him. According to the Sun Qihang car accident case ten years ago, Xu Lang and the others investigated Wang Wenruo. After some investigation, they learned that Wang Wenruo was imprisoned five years ago.
Yes, he was released from prison three months ago.
After further investigation, Xu Lang and others discovered that Wang Wenruo and Shen Kaiwen knew each other, and the two current cases were probably committed by these two people.
Thinking of this, the case gradually became clearer.
Sun Qihang's death and Zhang Jinzhong's death may be related to Wang Wenruo's crime for revenge, or to the joint cooperation between Wang Wenruo and Shen Kaiwen. After all, judging from several crime scenes, the murderer is very familiar with the police's methods of handling cases, and Wang Wenruo Although he went to university, had been in prison, and had a certain understanding of the police's methods of handling cases, Wang Wen'er was definitely not able to handle the scene so cleanly. After all, he had served five years in prison.
People who are very clear about the police's methods of handling cases include, in addition to the police themselves, those special personnel with criminal records, the three departments of public security, procuratorate, and law that deal with the police, and then the lawyers, and Shen Kaiwen happens to be a lawyer. If Shen Kaiwen was really involved in these two cases, it would make sense that the scene could be so clean.
However, although this conjecture is very logical, there are still several problems that do not make sense.
First, how did Shen Kaiwen meet Wang Wenruo? What is the relationship between the two people?
Second, whether Sun Qihang or Zhang Jinzhong, they are all related to the Sun Qihang car accident case ten years ago. After Wang Wenruo was released from prison, he wanted to take revenge and kill them. This is understandable. Why did Shen Kaiwen get involved?
After Sun Qihang was killed, when the police were investigating Sun Qihang, they unexpectedly discovered six accidental car accidents from two years ago. Although these six car accidents were all closed as accidents, these six car accidents had nothing to do with Sun Qihang. There is a certain connection. Is Sun Qihang's death also related to these six cases?
What's even more coincidental is that the victim in the last of the six car accidents two years ago was Shen Kaiwen's father-in-law, and Shen Kaiwen appeared in it again.
Could it be that Shen Kaiwen and Wang Wenruo killed Sun Qihang just to avenge Yue Zhou Guangji? Xu Lang is not sure whether this is the truth, but it is very likely.
Finally, there is the case of Tan Yanxue twelve years ago. The person Tan Yanxue killed was Li Chun'an, the father of Lu Jianwei's ex-girlfriend Li Zhaojing. Li Zhaojing's mother Wang Yamei became a vegetative state, and Li Zhaojing also became a disabled person. Li Zhaojing was Lu Jianwei's ex-girlfriend , and Shen Kaiwen is Lu Jianwei's childhood friend and good friend, and now the appearance of Tan Yanxue, does it mean that the murderer's next target is Tan Yanxue?
If this is really the case, then who is the person who sent Xu Lang a text message? Why did he or she do this? Is it to provoke Xu Lang and see Xu Lang's jokes? Or is there something else? What's the purpose?
Xu Lang's speculation is based on the fact that Shen Kaiwen and Wang Wenruo are the murderers of the two current cases. There is no conclusive evidence to prove this. Even if Tan Yanxue's case is the same as Xu Lang's guess, These are just guesses. If the truth is different from Xu Lang's guess, then there will be big problems with the current direction of the police investigation.
Thinking of this, Xu Lang opened his eyes and sat up. He decided to go to Fengyun Women's Prison and talk to Tan Yanxue to see if he could find any useful clues.
So, Xu Lang stood up and left CSY.
————
When Xu Lang came to Fengyun Women's Prison and went through all the procedures, Xu Lang finally met Tan Yanxue.
Looking at the woman sitting across from the glass window, Xu Lang found it difficult to connect the woman in front of him with the woman he saw in the file.
The photo of Tan Yanxue on the file was taken twelve years ago. At that time, Tan Yanxue was only twenty-three years old. It was a time when she was young, full of youthful spirit, and boundless vitality. The vitality and purity that young people should have can be seen in
He could see on his face that Tan Yanxue, who was sitting in front of Xu Lang, had changed a lot.
The other party was wearing a navy blue prison uniform and had short hair that reached her ears. Twelve years ago, Tan Yanxue had an oval face, but now, she has an oval face, and baby fat can be seen on her face. Tan Yanxue in the photo
Wearing delicate makeup, but now, she is bare-faced and has slight bags under her eyes. When she squints, she can see the crow's feet at the corners of her eyes. Before she was imprisoned, her figure was very slender, with bulges where they should be and concavities where they should.
Her face was concave, and walking on the street, she was undoubtedly the presence of a goddess, and the Tan Yanxue in front of her was no different from an ordinary middle-aged woman, her figure was already out of shape.
The two sides picked up the phone, and Xu Lang lamented more about the ruthlessness of the years. If Tan Yanxue was not in prison, but in
From the outside, I guess she looks like she is in her mid-twenties now. She wears gold and silver, goes to high-end places, marries a good husband, has one or two children, and lives a life of fine clothing and fine food. Maybe, she will
She might join her parents' company and become a strong woman or a business elite, but now, she is just like most women in their thirties, there is no difference.
When Tan Yanxue saw Xu Lang, she was more confused and puzzled because she didn't know Xu Lang and had no friends like Xu Lang.
After picking up the phone, neither of them knew how to speak. In the end, it was Tan Yanxue who took the lead and asked, "Who are you?"
Tan Yanxue's voice brought Xu Lang back to reality. Although twelve years had passed, Tan Yanxue's voice was still very nice.
"My name is Xu Lang, and I am the leader of the CSY criminal investigation team."
Tan Yanxue looked at Xu Lang and nodded first, then shook his head and asked, "Do we know each other?"
"hehe......"
Xu Lang smiled and said, "I don't know him."
"Since you don't know me, you just have something to do with me. My case was cleared up twelve years ago. I said everything that needs to be said. I also received the punishment that I deserved. I don't know, Officer Xu
What do you want to do with me?"
In just a few words, this person, who seemed to be out of shape, clarified Xu Lang's purpose in finding her. It seemed that she was not a simple person even though she came from a wealthy family.
Xu Lang did not deny it, but nodded, looked at Tan Yanxue and asked: "Do you still remember the family of three you killed and injured twelve years ago when you drove your car?"
Tan Yanxue frowned, looked at Xu Lang, nodded, and said, "Remember."
After Tan Yanxue paused for a moment, she asked, "What's wrong? Is there anything new about the case?"
Xu Lang shook his head and said: "It has nothing to do with the case twelve years ago. I'm just asking, do you remember their names?"
"Li Chunan, Wang Yamei, Li Zhaojing, what's wrong?"
Tan Yanxue said the names of these three people without thinking.
"Do you know their current situation?" Xu Lang asked again.
Tan Yanxue shook her head and said, "I don't know. Although my parents have visited me often since I came here, they have never talked about them, and I didn't ask any questions."
Hearing what Tan Yanxue said, Xu Lang nodded, and then asked: "Then do you know about Lu Jianwei's case eight years ago?"
"Eight years ago? Lu Jianwei?"
Tan Yanxue looked at Xu Lang with a blank expression, thought for a moment, shook her head, and said, "Who is Lu Jianwei? Does the case eight years ago have anything to do with me?"
"Have you heard of the name Punisher?" Xu Lang asked.
Tan Yanxue took you to the elevator without thinking this time and said, "I know."
"Then do you know that the punisher is Lu Jianwei?" Xu Lang said.
Tan Yanxue was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Xu Lang in surprise. However, the surprised expression quickly faded away, and the expression on her face returned to calm. She looked at Xu Lang and said, "What does this have to do with me?
?”
"Of course it does matter." Xu Lang said.
"what relationship?"
"Li Zhaojing is Lu Jianwei's ex-girlfriend."
Hearing this, Tan Yanxue's expression suddenly changed. She was stunned and silent for a long time, then slowly came back to her senses, looked at Xu Lang, and said, "I heard that the Punisher is dead."
Xu Lang nodded.
Tan Yanxue breathed a sigh of relief when she saw this. Obviously, she was still very afraid of the name Punisher. However, Xu Lang's next words made Tan Yanxue's relaxed muscles tense up again.
"The new Punisher has appeared again, and has already killed two people."
Tan Yanxue looked at Xu Lang with a complicated expression, and after pondering for a long time, she said, "What does that have to do with me?"
"According to our investigation, the Punisher's next target may be you."
"I?"
Tan Yanxue pointed a finger at herself and looked at Xu Lang in surprise. Obviously, she didn't believe what Xu Lang said.
Xu Lang took out his cell phone, read the text message to Tan Yanxue through the glass, and then said, "I heard that you will be released from prison tomorrow, right?"
Tan Yanxue stared at the phone screen and nodded numbly.
"Will your family come to pick you up?" Xu Lang asked.
"Maybe."
Tan Yanxue had gradually regained her composure. She no longer looked at Xu Lang's phone, but raised her head to look at Xu Lang, and then asked: "What do you need me to do?"
Hearing what Tan Yanxue said, Xu Lang had to sigh with emotion, she is really a smart woman.
"I hope that after you are released from prison tomorrow, you can go to CSY with us to assist our investigation."
Tan Yanxue frowned, looked at Xu Lang, and after a moment of silence, said, "What if I refuse?"
"I think it's hard for you to survive twelve years behind bars before you are free, so something will happen." Xu Lang said calmly.
"Are you threatening me?" Tan Yanxue narrowed her eyes slightly, revealing a dangerous look.
Xu Lang turned a blind eye to this and said in a calm tone: "I'm just stating a fact. As for what you think, that's your business. If you cooperate with us, everyone will be better off."
"What if I don't cooperate?" Tan Yanxue continued to ask.
"hehe......"
Xu Lang smiled and didn't say anything, but his expression said everything.
