Chapter 81: There is no greater sorrow than death

The night is deep.

Jingyang Hutong.

I made a bowl of fried noodles at the intersection of the street and put them in my stomach. Chu Mufeng did not rest when he returned home.

He is still flipping through and sorting out the question information today. In his opinion, there should be something worthy of attention in these records.

I didn’t have time to think about it carefully before, but now I have to do it slowly and find clues.

The most important thing is that the situation reported by Pei Dongchang is still circling in his mind.

"Section Chief, I went to the Liangji Tavern to ask. The night before Chen Jianbin was burned to death, he and Zhao Yiran also drank there."

"According to the tavern owner, these two people do come often, because the other party is a police officer and he is in charge of his tavern, so he naturally has to serve as an uncle."

"The owner of the tavern also said that the two of them were drinking and chatting happily in the past, but something seemed wrong that day. Chen Jianbin even slapped the table, and then Zhao Yiran kept apologizing and saying hello."

"That night, Chen Jianbin drank a little too much, smashed two plates, and then left the tavern drunk."

"Later, when Zhao Yiran left, he even said hello to the tavern owner, paid the plate and asked him not to talk nonsense."

Can this situation be said to be unimportant?

Very important.

But with such information, there was no feedback on Sha Jin.

And according to Pei Dongchang, he was the first person to organize a questioning in the past, and no one in the Xianzhi Branch had ever asked in the past.

This is the most serious negligence!

He didn't believe that Sha Jin would completely ignore the information that Chu Mufeng could find.

"Or it's Sha Jin too lazy to investigate and inquire."

A flash of light flashed in Chu Mufeng's eyes.

Yes, it's probably because of this.

Who is Sha Jin? He is Chen Side's confidant.

In this case, what is Chen Side's attitude before he went to the execution ground? He wanted to shoot Zhao Yiran on the spot.

Do you think that when Chen Side is so angry, Sha Jin will still do things that are strange? Will he still ask to investigate the evidence that is not available?

Of course, he would not have disliked Chen Side because of Zhao Yiran's life or death.

In Sha Jin's eyes, if Zhao Yiran was killed, Chen Side's mood would be happy, that would be worth it.

As for what to say about killing the wrong person or what to say about letting the real murderer get away with it, that is all a matter of the future. For the moment, he dares not and is willing to touch Chen Side's bad intentions.

Otherwise, Chen Side would give him a deadline to solve the case within a few days, and he would be too terrible.

"It's all people who are crackling with abacus beads!"

Chu Mufeng closed the notebook that recorded the situation separately, his eyes were slightly squinting, and he murmured to himself: "It seems that this case is not simple. I must go to Chen Jianbin's house tomorrow to take a look. Maybe I can find any valuable clues!"

...

Beiping City, a narrow and deep alley in the south of the city.

The alley is called Sanjiao.

The reason why I called this name is that there were three brothers named Jiao here in the past who were very famous. Who would have thought that their family declined later, but the names were so habitually passed down.

This is a poor and chaotic alley.

All you can see here are messy decorations, no matter who you enter, there are many sheds built privately outside the door, and you can see them everywhere such as broken clay pots and mats.

Some people still raise chickens and feed ducks here, because in summer, the air is filled with an unpleasant stench, and anyone who has passed by here can't help but curse.

Zhao Yiran's home is in this alley.

"It's so bad. We brothers were arranged to look at him, Zhao Yiran. I knew this was not a good life, and no one could escape."

"Hey, brother, just bear with it. The director gave the order. What can we do?"

"Did you tell me that this case was done by Zhao Yiran? Can the detective who came from the headquarters of the Security Department solve the case? If it cannot be solved, Zhao Yiran would not be killed, right?"

"Whether this case is solved or not, what are you doing?"

"Isn't this idle or idle, just chat casually!"

...

Not far from Zhao Yiran's doorstep, there were two police officers from the Fairy Trace Branch chatting without a word.

They came on orders, so they would naturally keep a close eye on them. No matter how dissatisfied they were in their hearts and complained, they would still have to do what they should do.

Otherwise, if something goes wrong, Director Chen's temper will strip them of their police uniform without hesitation.

Bang!

At this moment, a low roar suddenly came from Zhao Yiran's house, followed by the sound of the rice bowl being smashed.

"What's wrong inside? Should we go in and take a look?"

"Hey, I said you are full, right? Why are you doing nothing while you are idle? I didn't hear that the couple is quarreling. Do you want to persuade the fight when you go in? You have not experienced Zhao Yiran's wife's fierceness, so why bother to cause trouble? If you want to go, you go, I won't go!"

"Okay, forget it, I won't go!"

...

Is it really a quarrel?

Indeed!

In the room, a round-faced woman with short hair and powdered makeup was skewed with her waist in a righteous manner.

She didn't know what perfume she was spraying on her body, and the smell was quite strange, but she was happy.

She is Tian Guixiang.

She broke the job just now.

Even so, Tian Guixiang was unable to relieve her anger, but instead pinched her fingers and scolded Zhao Yiran angrily.

"Zhao Yiran, I said you are a big man after all, why are you so cowardly? You didn't kill someone, why are you caught by them and dare not shout for justice?"

"If I hadn't been making trouble in the past, would you still have life now? You, please listen to me in the future."

"Are you really going to save my life?" Zhao Yiran, who was sitting on the small bench at the door, said with a gloomy face.

Tian Guixiang's expression changed slightly, a hint of panic flashed in her eyes, and then she grabbed a bowl and threw it to the ground.

"Okay, you unscrupulous Zhao Yiran, what do you want to say? Do you want to make a fuss with me? Tell you, I am not afraid of you. If you dare to touch a finger of my finger, your mother in your hometown will not have a good life!"

My mother!

Zhao Yiran felt irritable and uneasy. He looked up and glared at Tian Guixiang hard. He resisted the urge to slap her twice, walked into the inner room, fell headlong on the bed and started to sleep.

"Hmph, I still want to challenge me. Do you have the courage to do this? With such cowards as you, are the people in your branch blind? You even say that you can't even kill someone or kill a chicken!"

Tian Guixiang glanced at the debris on the ground and walked into the room angrily, so she was too lazy to clean up.

...

It's eight o'clock in the morning.

Beiping City, Jiujian Hutong in the west of the city.

Chen Jianbin’s home is here, which is completely different from Zhao Yiran’s Sanjiao Hutong. The environment here is quite good.

Although the alley is a bit narrow, every household is quite conscious and no one takes up the road outside.

There are two thick sycamore trees growing at the entrance of the alley.

The branches and leaves are lush and green.

"Chief Chu, you are here!"

When Chu Mufeng brought Pei Dongchang over, Sha Jin was already waiting here early.

Because he knew that he was working together, he didn't bring too many people, just come with his eyes and ears.

"Captain Sha, you came very early!" Chu Mufeng greeted with a smile.

"It should be!"

Sha Jin turned around and pointed to the alley and said, "Chief Chu, have you seen it? The third room passed through the entrance of the alley is Chen Jianbin's house."

"You also know that Chen Jianbin has not yet got married and only has an old mother in the family. After she learned about Chen Jianbin's incident, she fainted on the spot."

"Director Chen wants her to stay in the hospital and raise her well, but she refuses to leave. In her words, she wants to wait at home for Chen Jianbin's soul to come back. If she leaves, her son will not be able to find his home when he comes back."

After hearing this, Chu Mufeng was slightly moved.

Chu Mufeng also knew Chen Jianbin’s family situation.

His father died early, and his mother brought him up with great difficulty.

I thought he had a future, became a police officer, and his uncle was the director of the branch office, so his life would be better in the future. Who would have thought this would happen?

A white-haired man gives birth to a black-haired man. No one is willing to bear such a tragedy on earth!

"Well, Captain Sha, let's talk about it later!" Chu Mufeng said in a deep voice.

"Please here!"

Pushing open the door and walking into the yard, Chu Mufeng saw the lonely mother at a glance.

Sitting on the small stool, she was wearing a gray cloth dress, with disheveled hair, a haggard face and dull eyes.

Even if Chu Mufeng and others came in, she did not do anything.

"Has she lived here all the time?" Chu Mufeng asked in a low voice.

"Our director's wife was here yesterday, and I guess she will come today. We should be here before the case is concluded." Sha Jin said.

"Well, this is the best!"

From these words, Chu Mufeng could feel the care of Chen Side's whole family for Chen Jianbin. If it were someone else, with Chen Side's current identity, there would be no need to pay too much attention.

This should also be the reason why Chen Side gets angry!

Who made them have a deep sibling relationship?

"Auntie, we are from the Security Department and come for your son's case. If it is convenient, can we go to Chen Jianbin's house to take a look?" Chu Mufeng walked forward and leaned over and asked softly.

"People from the Garrison Office?"

Chen's mother slowly raised her head and looked at her dull eyes.

She recognized Sha Jin, but did not know Chu Mufeng.

"Is it you who stopped Shangde from shooting the murderer?" Chen's mother seemed a little sad and angry, a little lonely, and a little confused.

"Yes, it's me! Auntie, because I don't want your son to die inexplicably!"

"Don't worry, I'm investigating this case. If you make sure that the murderer is Zhao Yiran, I will catch him and shoot him with my own hands to sacrifice to your son's spirit in heaven!"

Chu Mufeng looked at Chen's mother calmly and said loudly.

Perhaps it was because he realized Chu Mufeng's decisiveness when he said this, or perhaps because he really wanted to avenge his son, Chen's mother, who had already cried dryly, did not act too excited.

"If you want to check it, go check it!"

"Thanks!"

Without any unnecessary nonsense, Chu Mufeng turned around and walked into the room with the people.

No matter how much you say at this moment, it is useless. As long as you can't catch the real murderer in one day, you will not be able to face this old man who is more sad than death in one day.
