The world is noisy and dusty, blinding the eyes. If a person cannot restrain himself and maintain a clear mind, he will surely become a blind person sooner or later. He lives in the world and spends his days in sorrow without knowing anything at all. Only by being content and knowing love can you know the simple origin of life.
The human heart is full of holes. Outside the hole is a warm and greasy light, and inside the hole is the hidden truth.————Wang Chen
After meeting Zou Yuanliang, Xu Lang proposed to take away all the surveillance videos of the Renjiang Group in recent days. Zou Yuanliang was not surprised at all. He seemed to have been prepared for it. When Xu Lang made the request, he asked his secretary to
He handed the relevant information to Xu Lang.
When Xu Lang asked to go to the top of the building to have a look, Zou Yuanliang did not hesitate at all and arranged for someone to take Xu Lang and the others to the top of the building.
The person Zou Yuanliang arranged to guide Xu Lang and the others was none other than his personal secretary, a girl in her twenties named Meng.
The girl was very beautiful. When taking Xu Lang and the others to the roof, Xu Lang asked casually: "Why don't you see your executive director Zou Wenke and CEO Tang Wanqing?"
"Oh, Director Zou and Mr. Tang are not feeling well and are resting at home today, so they did not come to the company."
As he spoke, Xu Lang and the others came to the top of the building. When he opened the door leading to the top of the building, Xu Lang squinted his eyes, turned his head, looked at the female secretary and asked: "Does anyone come here often?
"
The female secretary thought for a while, shook her head and said, "Barely no one comes here usually."
"Oh, that's it."
Xu Lang responded lightly, looked at the door that was pushed open, and then came to the top of the building.
Compared with the cleanliness and spotlessness of other places in the company, the roof of the building seemed much messier. Xu Lang stood at the door and was not in a hurry to take that step. He observed the ground on the roof and found a place similar to the scene where Zou Renjiang was murdered.
bad situation.
There is a layer of dust on the ground on the roof of the building, but it is covered with shoe prints. There are more than a dozen groups of large and small ones. The footprints are messy and most of the footprints are incomplete. It is obvious that the site has been damaged. If you want to collect shoes
seal, it is unlikely that the perpetrator will be found.
"Why......"
Xu Lang sighed in his heart and stepped into the scene.
Because there was no murder here, the scene was not cordoned off, and all the money bags found at the scene had been taken away by the police. What Xu Lang saw was no clues other than the messy footprints.
The director was the first person to arrive at the scene. He took Xu Lang to the place where the money bag was found, which was on the edge of the rooftop.
Xu Lang walked over and looked at the scene, but found no special traces. Xu Lang stretched out his head and looked downstairs, and found that the originally tall buildings seemed extremely small at this moment, and the streets downstairs
The car looks like a child's toy, extremely petite.
After walking around the scene, he still didn't find anything special. Xu Lang knew that there would be no results if he continued to stay, so he was ready to leave.
When leaving, Xu Lang turned his head, looked at the female secretary and asked: "Has anyone been to this place after what happened last night?"
The female secretary thought for a moment and said, "Probably not."
"Probably not?"
Xu Lang frowned.
After the female secretary saw Xu Lang's expression, she quickly explained: "Very few people usually come to this place, and after the accident, no one came even more. Besides, if something happens to the company now, who is there?"
This is where I feel."
After listening to the female secretary's explanation, Xu Lang nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
After leaving the roof, Xu Lang and the others did not go to Zou Yuanliang again, but took the elevator directly to leave Renjiang Group. The female secretary sent them downstairs.
After walking out of the Renjiang Group office building, Xu Lang stopped, turned his head, and looked towards the top floor.
At this time, the sky was clear and cloudless. The dazzling sunlight shone on the glass, reflecting the dazzling light. It was impossible to see clearly what was going on inside the building. Xu Lang squinted his eyes and frowned.
Seeing Xu Lang's expression, the director also raised his head and followed Xu Lang's line of sight. He saw nothing, so he asked: "Team Leader Xu, what are you looking at?"
Hearing the director's voice, Xu Lang came back to his senses, lowered his head, shook his head, and said, "It's nothing, let's go."
"oh."
The director was stunned for a moment, looked in that direction again, and still saw nothing, so he looked back and left with Xu Lang.
After Xu Lang and the others left, the direction Xu Lang was looking at was Zou Yuanliang's office. Zou Yuanliang was not sitting behind the desk, but standing next to the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at Xu Lang and the others.
The figure's brows were furrowed and her face was solemn, as if she had something on her mind.
After sending Xu Lang and the others away, the female secretary quickly returned to Zou Yuanliang's office.
Opening the door, I saw Zou Yuanliang standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. He came behind Zou Yuanliang and shouted softly: "Mr. Zou."
Zou Yuanliang withdrew his gaze, turned around, looked at the female secretary, and asked casually: "Are they gone?"
"Well, let's go."
"Did they find anything on the roof?"
"No, they just walked around the top of the building and didn't find anything."
Zou Yuanliang nodded and waved his hand to signal the female secretary to go out.
When the female secretary saw this, she didn't say anything else and turned to
The body left.
Zou Yuanliang slowly walked back to the desk, sat on the boss's chair, leaned against the chair, and fell into deep thought.
————
On the way back, Xu Lang asked while driving: "Did you see anything?"
"What?"
The director didn't know what Xu Lang wanted to ask, so he asked with a puzzled look on his face.
"You just saw Zou Yuanliang, did you notice anything?"
The director recalled the meeting and conversation with Zou Yuanliang just now, shook his head and said, "No, it's normal."
"You think it's normal?" Xu Lang turned his head, glanced at the director, and continued driving.
"Did Team Leader Xu find something abnormal?" the director asked rhetorically.
Xu Lang didn't speak, just pursed his lips. To be honest, Xu Lang didn't find anything unusual. However, Xu Lang felt that Zou Yuanliang seemed to have no interest in him or the police coming to Renjiang Group to investigate the Qianyu incident.
It's not surprising that he even thought of what the police wanted and prepared it in advance.
What surprised Xu Lang the most was that, facing a huge sum of nearly 20 million, Zou Yuanliang did not say that the money belonged to his company, which surprised Xu Lang somewhat.
Although Renjiang Group is currently the largest listed company in S city, and such a large company certainly does not lack 20 million in funds, many things have happened to Renjiang Group in recent times, and there are too many places to spend money, especially
Now that the leader of the Renjiang Group, Zou Renjiang, has been killed, the Renjiang Group has once again been pushed to the forefront. They are now facing many threats, and there are many places where money is needed. Twenty million is not a lot of money for the Zou family, but
, it’s not a small amount of money. If Zou Yuanliang said that the money belonged to their company, the police would return the money to them as long as they produced evidence. However, Zou Yuanliang did not do this at all, and even investigated Xu Lang and the others.
Zou Yuanliang also showed disgust over this incident, which made Xu Lang even more puzzled.
In silence all the way, Xu Lang walked the director to the door of the police station and went directly back to CSY without getting out of the car.
When Xu Lang left, the director once again raised the issue of the money. Xu Lang did not agree to take the money back to CSY, but continued to leave it at the police station for them to look after.
On the way back to CSY, Xu Lang was still thinking about this trip to Renjiang Group.
Although a lot of things have happened to Renjiang Group recently, and Zou Renjiang was also killed. Since the media has reported it, the company's employees must also know about it. It stands to reason that if such a thing happens, the company's employees will be more or less emotional.
However, when Xu Lang entered the company, he found that in addition to a wave of media reporters gathered at the entrance of the company, the company had only strengthened the security system, and the employees inside the company were still doing what they were supposed to do, and there was nothing unusual about it.
Performance, which somewhat surprised Xu Lang.
What's more, Zou Renjiang was killed and no longer exists. However, as several important figures in the Renjiang Group, Tang Wanqing, Zou Wenke and Zou Jiayi are not in the company. Only Zou Yuanliang is in the company. This is very strange.
.
A relative has been killed. This is indeed a deplorable and regretful thing. However, the person is dead, and the living must do something within their ability. Now, Renjiang Group is in troubled times, and they no longer handle related matters in the company.
But staying at home is a bit strange.
Previously, Xu Lang also speculated that after Zou Renjiang's death, Zou Yuanliang, Zou Wenke, Zou Jiayi and Zou Renjiang's wife Tang Wanqing would have conflicts over property issues. After all, Zou Renjiang was not an ordinary person.
The police don't know exactly how much he is worth at the moment, and the people who know this best are naturally his relatives. This is a huge inheritance. In many cases, there has been a lot of trouble because of inheritance issues.
Bloody dramas like Gou Tiao often happen, but Zou Yuanliang and the others show no signs of it.
It would make sense to say that Zou Yuanliang and the others are brothers from the same father and mother. They have a good relationship and a good relationship. However, they are not. Except for Zou Wenke and Zou Jiayi, who are brothers from the same father and mother, the rest
Neither of them are, and these two brothers are not in the company yet, so there are some problems.
Of course, these are just Xu Lang's guesses, and they are still the worst guesses. Maybe their relationship is really good, but Xu Lang is overthinking it.
However, these things are not issues that Xu Lang should worry about. He should now think carefully about how to detect the truth about Zou Renjiang's murder as soon as possible.
————
Time always passes quickly, and it will not stand still depending on whether people are busy or care.
When Xu Lang returned to CSY, it was already six o'clock in the afternoon, and it was time to get off work. For the members of CSY, it was impossible to get off work on time today.
When he returned to CSY, Xu Lang found that except for Ding Haoqiong, Luo Jiayan and Lai Pi, everyone else was there. Lu Xing was still in front of the computer, staring at the computer screen meticulously, checking the information brought from the Hengda Building.
The surveillance video came back, and Xiao Yueyue sat next to Lu Xing, checking it with Lu Xing.
After seeing Xu Lang come back, Xiao Yueyue left her seat and came to Xu Lang's side. She didn't say anything, just looked at Xu Lang.
Xiao Yueyue's movements caught Lu Xing's attention, and he turned his head and said hello.
"Brother Lang."
"How is the surveillance video? Did you find anything?" Xu Lang walked towards Lu Xing and asked as he walked.
Lu Xing shook his head and said
Said: "There are no clues yet."
"No clue?"
Xu Lang frowned immediately.
Lu Xing knew what Xu Lang wanted to say, so he explained: "The Hengda Building opened today, so in the past few days, the Hengda Building has been making preparations. There are many people coming in and out of the Hengda Building. Bring them in
The items are also very large, and everyone seems to be suspicious, but everyone seems to be normal. For the time being, there are really no clues."
Xu Lang stood behind Lu Xing, looked at the surveillance screen for a while, and nodded, knowing that Lu Xing was right.
When a building opens, it definitely requires a lot of preliminary preparations, and the more work there is, the more things will happen. Although Xu Lang really hopes that Lu Xing can find some useful clues from the surveillance video as soon as possible, this will take time.
Xu Lang handed over the surveillance video brought back from Renjiang Group to Lu Xing.
"What is this?" Lu Xing asked, looking at the hard drive in his hand.
"Look at the Renjiang Group's surveillance video. Before the money rained down on the Renjiang Group office building last night, who entered the company?" Xu Lang explained.
"ah?!"
Lu Xing turned his head, widened his eyes and opened his mouth, looking at Xu Lang with a look of helplessness on his face.
Xu Lang knew what Lu Xing wanted to express. There were already enough surveillance cameras in the Hengda Building to keep Lu Xing busy. Now, Xu Lang asked him to check the surveillance cameras of Renjiang Group, which made Lu Xing's work difficult.
It has increased exponentially, and it is normal for him to feel helpless.
"I will find someone to help you. You also know that Zou Renjiang's matter is very important. The superiors attach great importance to it and require us to solve the case within a time limit. Please work hard."
After saying this, Xu Lang patted Lu Xing on the shoulder.
"Okay, who asked me to do this?"
Lu Xing said helplessly and aggrieved.
Xu Lang didn't offer any comfort. He said a few words to Xiao Yueyue and then turned around to find Fan Yang. He wanted to know if Fan Yang had any clues.
After seeing Fan Yang, before Xu Lang could speak, Fan Yang took the lead and said: "At the crime scene where Zou Renjiang was killed, we extracted a lot of footprints and fingerprints. After comparison, we found that these footprints and fingerprints were all the first.
It was left behind by those who rushed to the scene."
After saying this, Fan Yang handed Xu Lang a stack of documents.
Xu Lang took it, looked at it, raised his head, and asked, "Were there no matching fingerprints or footprints found at the scene?"
Fan Yang said with a wry smile: "The scene was greatly damaged. Many footprints and fingerprints were destroyed. Only a part could be extracted and collected. The comparison results of this part show that these footprints were the first batch to arrive at the scene.
left behind by people.”
"Then are there any other clues?" Xu Lang asked again.
"Yes, the oil we found in the iron pots on site has been analyzed and found to be ordinary cooking oil, which can be purchased in supermarkets."
"Where's the iron pot?" Xu Lang asked.
"I also checked the iron pot. This is an ordinary iron pot, which is used in rural areas and some restaurants."
"Can you find out the origin of this pot?" Xu Lang asked.
Fan Yang shook his head and said: "This kind of pot is not common in cities, but it is very common in rural areas and counties. It is probably difficult to investigate the source. However, when Luo Jiayan visited and investigated, she learned that this
The pot was brought by the workers involved in the construction of the Hengda Building when it was being built. Later, after the building was completed, these workers left, probably because it was inconvenient to carry, so they discarded it inside the building. Others have seen it before
, I originally wanted to get rid of it, but I never had time, so I left it in the grocery room, and now it appears at the crime scene."
Xu Lang raised his eyebrows and saw a few incompletely burned wooden sticks placed on Fan Yang's workbench, so he asked: "What about these firewood?"
"This is just ordinary wood, nothing special. I also learned that these firewood are the construction waste left over from the construction of the building. They have been piled up in the utility room together with the iron pots." Fan
Yang explained.
"So, these things found at the crime scene are all from the Hengda Building?" Xu Lang asked.
Fan Yang nodded and said, "Yes."
"It seems that the murderer is very familiar with the situation in the Hengda Building. Do you think it was an acquaintance who committed the crime?" Xu Lang asked.
Fan Yang thought for a while and said: "Judging from the current results, the possibility of an acquaintance committing the crime is very high, but..."
When Fan Yang was speaking at the end, she looked at the big pot. There was a number three blackened by smoke. Her meaning was very clear. If an acquaintance committed the crime, then the number on the pot
Third, what's going on?
Combining the previous cases of Yang Rongwei and Chen Qiumin, the first thing Xu Lang and others thought of was Sun Wenyao. However, the tools used to commit the crime were all made from local materials. Sun Wenyao was highly suspected. However, it is now more likely that an acquaintance would commit the crime. If
It was not Sun Wenyao who committed the crime, so who was the perpetrator? What was his purpose in killing Zou Renjiang in such a cruel way? And why did he leave the number three on the iron pot? What does the number three mean?
?
Is it a copycat crime?
Xu Lang thought it was impossible. In the Yang Rongwei case and the Chen Qiumin case, the murderer left numbers. Only the police involved in the investigation of the case knew about this, and not even the media reporters knew about it. How did the murderer know about it?
