Xu Lang silently wrote down the name. Then, he turned to look at Lu Xing and asked, "Check the background information of Zhou Yuanjia."
After Lu Xing typed on the keyboard with both hands quickly for a while, he raised his head and said: "Zhou Yuanjia, male, committed suicide by lying on the train twelve years ago because he owed huge foreign debts. When he died, he was only three years old.
Eighteen years old."
"What else?" Xu Lang asked.
"Zhou Yuanjia had two children, a son and a daughter. The older one was a daughter and the younger one was a son. Before Zhou Yuanjia committed suicide, he sent his wife and two children abroad. Furthermore, Zhou Yuanjia and his wife divorced."
"What are the names of Zhou Yuanjia's wife and children?"
"Zhou Yuanjia's ex-wife is Jie Shishi, who is 48 years old, his daughter is Zhou Yuxue, who is 21 years old, and his son is Zhou Rufeng, who is 19 years old. Information shows that their family of three is now settled in country M. After Zhou Yuanjia committed suicide, they
They haven't come back yet," Lu Xing said.
After hearing this information, Xu Lang pondered for a moment and then said, "Lu Xing, please check to see if there is any record of Zhou Rufeng's family returning to China recently."
Speaking of this, Xu Lang looked at the others and asked, "Have all Bu Pengfu's family been notified?"
"Bu Pengfu's wife is in the ward of the Third People's Hospital of City S, and his son Bu Xingyu has been notified. However, the university Bu Xingyu studies is not in City S, but in Yanjing City. If you take a plane
If so, we will probably arrive in the afternoon. If we take other means of transportation, we will probably arrive tomorrow at the earliest." Ding Haoqiong said.
Xu Lang nodded, and then said: "Divide into two groups, one group will continue to investigate Nie Fang's case, and the other group will investigate the case of Bu Pengfu's death. Lu Xing, please retrieve the surveillance video of Bu Pengfu's community.
Let’s see if anyone suspicious appears before and after Bu Pengfu’s accident.”
After a brief discussion, everyone began to take action.
Ding Haoqiong and Lai Pi were responsible for continuing to follow up on Nie Fang's case. Qin Mingyue wanted to conduct an autopsy on Bu Pengfu's body. Whether it was Nie Fang's and Lu Fen's bodies or Bu Pengfu's, during the autopsy
, both are a huge workload, because both corpses were severely damaged. Fan Yang and Luo Jiayan, one has to continue to investigate the scene and conduct interviews and investigations, while the other has to investigate Bu Pengfu's interpersonal relationships and society.
Background, as for Xu Lang, he wanted to meet that fat boy.
After all the work was arranged, CSY, which was originally very lively, suddenly seemed particularly deserted after everyone left.
Xu Lang walked out of CSY. After he got in the car, he suddenly remembered something. He wondered if Ning Yanran had received the text message he sent and whether he had sent Xiao Yueyue to school. Thinking of this, Xu Lang took out his mobile phone and dialed
Called Ning Yanran.
"Did you receive the text message I sent this morning?"
"Copy that."
"Then Xiao Yueyue..."
"Don't worry, after I received your text message, I went to your house and sent Xiao Yueyue to school."
"That's good."
When Xu Lang heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, Ning Yanran asked on the other end of the phone: "Is there a new case?"
"Bu Pengfu is dead." Xu Lang said as he started the car.
"Murder?" Ning Yanran asked curiously.
"It looks like suicide, but the real cause of Bu Pengfu's death cannot be determined yet."
"It seems that CSY is quite busy." Ning Yanran said.
"Hey... who says it's not the case?" Xu Lang sighed, and then said: "By the way, until Nie Shan's case is over, Xiao Yueyue will be temporarily left to you to help take care of her. If Xiao Yueyue doesn't
If you are willing to go with you, call me and I will tell her."
"no problem."
Ning Yanran agreed wholeheartedly, and then she asked curiously: "Xu Lang, what have you taught Xiao Yueyue? She really doesn't look like a six-year-old child. She is better than the average
Children are much wiser."
"I didn't teach her anything, she taught herself everything." Xu Lang said casually.
"Self-taught? Is it true?" Ning Yanran obviously didn't believe Xu Lang's words.
"That's because you haven't been in contact with her for a long time. After a long time, you will know. Okay, I won't tell you anymore, I have to do something."
After Xu Lang finished speaking, he hung up the phone before Ning Yanran could say anything more.
Handing Xiao Yueyue over to Ning Yanran was actually Xu Lang's helpless move. Although S City was Xu Lang's home and Xu Lang knew many people, there were very few people who could really reassure Xu Lang. Most of them were with
People who were very close to Xu Lang died or left one after another in the past few years when Xu Lang was not in S City. Xu Lang didn’t have many friends, Du Ziqiao was one of them, and there were only a few people from Lang Ge’s Detective Agency.
After all, on the police side, there are only two people, Ning Yanran and Lu Xing. Like Du Ziqiao and Lu Xing, they are both big men, and they all have their own work to do. Xu Lang handed Xiao Yueyue over to them
, I’m really worried.
After Xu Lang put down his cell phone, he threw away all the messy thoughts in his mind. He now wanted to devote himself to solving the two murder cases that occurred.
————
Xu Lang followed the address given by Wang Yongyi and drove to a billiards hall owned by Fatty.
According to the information given by Wang Yongyi, Fatty spends most of his time in this billiards hall. Fatty will go to other billiards halls and game halls, but his favorite is the Starlight that Xu Lang is seeing now.
Billiard Hall, as for the reason, Wang Yongyi didn't say it, and Xu Lang didn't really want to know.
The decoration of the Starlight Billiards Hall is quite satisfactory, no different from other billiards halls.
When Xu Lang walked in
When I was in the billiards hall, I found that in one of the billiards halls in Nuovo University, there were only two people playing around the pool tables. Maybe it was because today was not Saturday or Sunday, so there were relatively few people in the billiards hall. Except for five people playing games, there were only five people playing at the bar.
There were four people next to him. A fat man weighing at least two hundred pounds was sitting on a chair, and opposite him, a middle-aged man with disheveled hair stood tremblingly.
Behind the fat man, there were two strong men standing with their hands folded on their chests and expressionless faces. The two pairs of eyes of the strong men were staring at the middle-aged man opposite, giving the middle-aged man opposite a vague feeling.
The intimidation dares.
Although it is early spring, these people playing in the pool hall seem to be afraid of the heat. They are all wearing short-sleeved shirts, revealing their strong muscles and colorful kaleidoscope-like tattoos.
In addition to the exaggerated tattoos, their hair is either short-cut or dyed in colorful colors, as if to tell people who see them that they are gangsters, young and Dangerous.
"Brother, please give me one more month of grace, just one month. After one month, I promise to return you all the capital plus interest." The middle-aged man said with a tone of pleading and flattery.
"Brother, it's not that I don't forgive you, or that I don't understand you. I've already given you grace twice. Do you think I'm interesting enough for you?" The fat man held a glass of wine in one hand and a glass of wine in the other.
He looked at the middle-aged man and said with a smile.
"Brother Fatty, I know you are very interested in me, but I really can't afford that much money now. Please give me a month's grace, oh, no, twenty days, only twenty days."
God, my funds will be withdrawn, and I promise to return them to you."
The temperature in the billiard hall is actually very suitable, giving people a feeling of neither cold nor hot, just right. However, the middle-aged man is sweating profusely at the moment. He is wiping the sweat on his forehead with one hand and looking at it eagerly.
With the fat man.
"Twenty days?"
The fat man gently swayed the wine glass in his hand, and the orange-yellow liquid collided with the transparent cup. The fat man glanced at the man faintly, and a mocking smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Fifteen days, brother, fifteen days." The middle-aged man said quickly after seeing the fat man's expression.
Unexpectedly, the fat man still shook his head. He looked at the middle-aged man and said: "Three days, I only give you three days. You should have heard of the principle that things can only be done in three days. If you can't get the money after three days,
Just give it to the weird brother, I won’t give you face, it will embarrass you.”
"Brother Fatty..."
After the middle-aged man heard what the fat man said, his face turned blank, as if he were mourning for his heir. He wanted to continue begging for a few words, but was interrupted by the fat man waving his hand.
"You have the time to beg me here, so why not go back and raise money quickly? Brother, I haven't let anyone go to your house until now. I hope you won't force me to do something I don't want to do." The fat man said calmly.
said.
"Brother Fatty, please don't go to my house. I'm going to raise money right now."
After the middle-aged man said this, he quickly turned around and walked towards the door. When passing Xu Lang, he accidentally bumped into Xu Lang. Just when Xu Lang was about to reach out his hand to support him, he saw
Without looking at Xu Lang, he walked directly past Xu Lang as if he didn't see Xu Lang.
Xu Lang saw the scene just now. He looked at the middle-aged man's retreating back and subconsciously squinted his eyes, but didn't say anything.
If they were just simply lending money at usury, neither Xu Lang's CSY nor the Huaxia police would be able to do anything to them. However, once they collect debts, they adopt some drastic methods, such as illegal detention, intentional injury, and provocation.
The police can come forward to cause trouble, etc., but the debtor will eventually have to repay the loan.
Xu Lang is very disgusted with things like loan sharking. Whether it is loan sharks or people who borrow loan sharks, Xu Lang is very disgusted. Generally, people who choose to borrow loan sharks are either gamblers or drug addicts.
Naturally, Lang would not sympathize with such a person.
After the middle-aged man left, the fat man raised his head and looked at Xu Lang who was standing at the door, and Xu Lang also turned his head and looked at the fat man.
After the two people looked at each other for a few seconds, Xu Lang walked straight to the fat man.
The fat man who was so aggressive just now showed a bright smile when he saw Xu Lang. When he saw Xu Lang, he asked: "Brother, are you playing ball or..."
As the fat man spoke, he rubbed his fingers together as if he understood.
Xu Lang didn't even look at the two people standing behind the fat man like two door gods. He stared into the fat man's eyes and asked straight to the point: "Are you the fat boy?"
The fat man raised his eyebrows, nodded, and said, "I am Fatty, what can I do for you?"
After Fat Boy said these words, he nestled his body into the chair that was not big. From a distance, Fat Boy looked like a big meat ball squeezed into the chair. As Fat Boy said this
After saying this, everyone in the billiard hall looked at Xu Lang.
Xu Lang turned a blind eye to other people's reactions. He directly took out his ID, placed it in front of Fatty, and said: "Police, I want to find out more about the situation from you."
"police?"
Fatty seemed stunned for a moment, and then an expression that seemed to be a smile appeared on his face. He did not speak, but picked up the wine glass in his hand and took a big sip.
After others heard that Xu Lang was a policeman, they all gathered around Xu Lang.
"I wonder what this police officer's name is?" Fatty put down his wine glass and looked at Xu Lang with interest.
"Xu Lang."
"Xu Lang?"
Fatty was stunned. He felt like he had heard this name somewhere before, and it felt very familiar.
He thought quickly in his mind, and soon he knew who Xu Lang was.
After thinking about who Xu Lang was, Fatty quickly sat up from his chair, put down the black eight billiards and wine glass in his hands, stood up, stretched out a hand, and handed it to Xu Lang, with a flattering look on his face.
With a smile, he said: "Oh, it turns out to be Brother Lang, why didn't you say hello to me when you came?"
Xu Lang stretched out his hand, touched Fatty's hand, then retracted it, took out a photo from his pocket, handed it to Fatty, and asked directly: "You should know this person, right?"
After Fatty sat down again, he took the photo in Xu Lang's hand and looked at it carefully, then nodded and said, "I know him. This guy's name is Nie Fang. He is the owner of a machinery processing factory."
After finishing speaking, Fatty returned the photo to Xu Lang, looked at Xu Lang with a puzzled expression and asked: "Isn't Nie Fang dead? Brother Lang, you are looking for me..."
"A month ago, he borrowed a sum of money from you, right?" Xu Lang did not answer Fatty's question, but asked.
Fatty nodded and said, "Yes, I thought he was a big boss, so I lent him three million."
Xu Lang narrowed his eyes and asked, "Why is he asking you to borrow money?"
Fatty shook his head and said: "I am only responsible for borrowing money, signing the contract, signing the receipt, and pressing my fingerprints. I will give him the money and he will pay it back on time. As for what he will do with the money,
It’s not something I should know.”
"Then you are not afraid that he will not repay the loan?" Xu Lang said with a smile.
"Fuck, don't you dare not pay back our fat boy's money. He is an old man who has eaten arsenic and is looking for death." A young man who looked very young, very thin, and had scary-looking tattoos on his body said.
Xu Lang turned his head and looked at the young man with a half-smile but said nothing.
"What are you looking at? Do you think you are great because you are a policeman? Arrest me if you can? Damn it!"
The young man saw Xu Lang looking at him, which made him very unhappy. He raised his head, his attitude was very arrogant, and he said provocatively.
Xu Lang still didn't speak, but the smile on his face became brighter.
After Fatty saw this scene, his expression suddenly changed, he glared hard at the young man who spoke so freely, and scolded: "Shut up."
After yelling at the young man, Fatty immediately put on a flattering smile, looked at Xu Lang and said with a smile: "Brother Lang, don't take it to heart. Don't be as knowledgeable as him."
Xu Lang took a deep look at the young man who was still very unconvinced, smiled, turned his head, looked at Fatty and said: "I can't care about your loan sharking, and I don't want to care about it, but if I were with you today
If I don’t get what I want here, we’ll find another place to chat.”
"No, Brother Lang, you can ask, you can ask whatever you want, as long as my fat boy knows about it, I will definitely tell you." Fat boy's expression changed in a very unnatural way, and he said quickly.
"Still the same question, why did Nie Fang ask you to borrow money?"
Fatty shook his head. After seeing that Xu Lang's face was not very good, he thought for a moment and said, "I don't know what he did specifically, but I seem to have heard that he went to Brother Hua's casino before he asked me to borrow money.
He lost a lot of money, probably more than 20 million. I guess he asked me to borrow money because he wanted to go to the casino to get his money back."
"Brother Hua?"
Xu Lang frowned. When Xu Lang was in S City, he had never heard of anyone nicknamed Brother Hua. Now, from Fatty's words, he should have heard of it in the past few years since he left S City.
It suddenly appeared during the period of time.
Seemingly sensing that Xu Lang didn't know Brother Hua, Fatty quickly explained: "I don't know what Brother Hua's real name is. He suddenly appeared in S City three years ago. He is very rich and seems to have a good background."
, opened a casino in Chengbei District, and made a lot of money in the past few years."
Xu Lang nodded, then looked at Fatty and asked, "Can you contact him?"
Fatty smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying: "We are not familiar with each other, and besides, that guy is not very good at what he does and has tricked a lot of people. I have only heard of him, but I don't know him personally."
"Not authentic? Why not authentic?" Xu Lang asked curiously.
"That guy seems to have a lot of background. Although he has not been established in City S for a long time, he is very arrogant in what he does. No one has ever been able to win money from his casino."
"Not one?" Xu Lang raised his eyebrows.
"Yes, there are, but not many of them win," Fatty said.
"Where is the address of the casino?" Xu Lang thought for a while and asked.
"This..." Fatty looked at Xu Lang hesitantly.
Xu Lang frowned, looked at Fatty and asked, "What? Is there a problem?"
"No no."
Fatty waved his hands repeatedly, and then told Xu Lang the address of Brother Hua's casino.
After Xu Lang got what he wanted, he stood up and walked towards the door.
"Go slowly, Brother Lang." Fatty stood up and said with a smile.
When Xu Lang walked to the door, he suddenly stopped, turned his head, and said to Fatty: "I want to ask you one more thing."
"what's up?"
"Do you know Nie Fang's son Nie Wenxing?"
"I know."
"Have you seen it?"
"I haven't seen him in person, but I have seen photos."
"Have you seen or heard of Nie Wenxing after the incident with Nie Fang's family?"
Fatty thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "No."
"Then please keep an eye out for me. If you see him or know any information about him, please contact me. This is my contact information."
After Xu Lang finished speaking, he left a business card and left the Starlight Billiard Hall.
