Xu Tiannan once again came to this familiar zoo, and once again walked on this vibrant tree-lined avenue, what he saw in his eyes was always the shadow left behind when he solved the executioner case.
Mrs. Qian's body has not yet been found, and Boss Qian's ashes are still buried alone in a corner of a cheap cemetery.
When Du Yongzhi's ashes were brought back to his hometown, his high school daughter had already burst into tears.
Deputy Director Jin Jianguo has disappeared from people's sight since he was dismissed from office and sentenced to probation. Fortunately, his daughter's heart transplant operation was very successful, but the Mobei City Procuratorate is still pursuing the "
"Disciplinary fine", it is estimated that he and Sister-in-law Jin can only use the income from working for the rest of their lives to repay it.
Both Yang Xiaopang and Yang Xiaomei are facing sentences of more than 15 years in prison. It is estimated that after they are released from prison, this society will no longer be what they once thought.
There are also those who died in vain in the executioner case. I wonder if they have gone to a higher dimension world now. (Note 1)
However, when Xu Tiannan thought of Yang Wanli, he shook his head vigorously and said to himself: "You pretentious guy! Don't appear in my mind again! Hurry up and finish serving your 1.3 billion years of "hell time"!"
(Note 2)
Thinking of the past, Xu Tiannan suddenly felt depressed. He walked quickly through the tree-lined avenue and finally saw Chen Liangshan outside the door of a small bungalow.
The other person sat haggardly on the small bench at the door, but his eyes were distracted and dull, staring at the ground under his feet, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Goodness?"
"Goodness?"
"Hey! What are you doing?"
After calling several times, Chen Liangshan was finally startled. When he raised his head and saw the person coming, he sighed and said, "Tiannan, you...are you here?"
Xu Tiannan had doubts in his heart. It stands to reason that if the other party was really involved in the murder of Liu Jianmin last night, he would be more or less nervous when facing him at this time. But now the other party seemed to be distracted and did not know what happened.
What happened.
Xu Tiannan asked in a low voice: "What's wrong with you? What happened?"
The other party responded nonchalantly: "Tian Nan, there are some things I shouldn't tell you, but now besides you... I really don't know who to talk to."
Xu Tiannan sat next to the other party, "It's okay, you can tell me anything you want, as long as I can help you..."
"No! Stop it!" Chen Liangshan suddenly interrupted: "Tian Nan, you know me. I'm not a person who asks for help. I came to you today just because I regard you as my best friend.
, I have no intention of asking you for help!"
Xu Tiannan nodded, "I understand, then you go ahead and I'll listen."
After a moment, Chen Liangshan said slowly: "Yesterday... I smashed my phone, and it hit the glass of my car, and it broke into pieces!"
Xu Tiannan asked in surprise: "Why? What happened?"
The other party slowly took out a newly bought fake mobile phone from his pocket, handed it over and said: "I can't explain in a sentence or two, but after I smashed the mobile phone, my wife sent me many text messages. I also just
I only saw it after I bought a new mobile phone, why don’t you check it out yourself.”
Xu Tiannan took the phone and asked the other party again: "Liangshan, are you sure I can read your text messages?"
Chen Liangshan: "I don't treat you as an outsider, just look at it."
Later, Xu Tiannan opened his text message inbox and discovered that, except for a lottery-winning fraud text message, dozens of other text messages were all sent from the same number.
Chen Liangshan explained: "Oh! I forgot to tell you, these dozens of text messages were all sent by my wife. I just changed my phone and haven't had time to save her number."
Xu Tiannan clicked on the text message.
——You worthless man! How dare you scold me now! Answer the phone! Answer the phone right now!
——Chen Liangshan! What’s wrong with you? Is your ability so great that it’s hard to even talk about it?
——You can’t do something as simple as connecting your children to school, so what else can you do?
——Chen Liangshan! Have you ever thought about it? You are a grown man who is away from home every day and makes no money! What on earth have you done for this family?
——Do you know how I couldn’t hold my head up at my mother’s house? Do you know the way she looked at me when she helped us live?
——Chen Liangshan! You are also a man who is almost 40 years old! Look at the life you have made your wife and children live!
——Answer the phone, otherwise you will never even think about this day again!
One after another, the abusive text messages add up to hundreds of words, which contain a woman’s anger and despair. These knife-sharp words are enough to send chills down the spine of everyone who sees it, but what really happens in these hundreds of words is that
Behind the words, Xu Tiannan saw only two words: poverty.
At the same time, Xu Tiannan also discovered that although the woman who sent the text message was extremely angry, she still retained the last trace of reason. She did not abuse Chen Liangshan with swear words, and she did not always use dirty words to insult Chen Liangshan like most women do when they are angry.
Talk about divorce.
But soon, one of the text messages instantly attracted Xu Tiannan's attention.
——Chen Liangshan, don’t forget! The car and house we got married were all bought by my parents! I Xiao Yanran was so blind! I found a man like you who has no future and will scold his wife!
Smiling beautifully?
There are very few such rare Hui surnames, and those named after "Yanran" are even less likely to have the same name. Therefore, Xu Tiannan immediately recalled that he secretly took away the DVD player at the scene of Liu Jianmin's murder last night.
The female reporter who holds the memory card is named Xiao Yanran.
Xu Tiannan asked: "Liangshan, your wife's name is Xiao Yanran?"
Chen Liangshan pretended not to know and responded: "Well, what, do you know him?"
Xu Tiannan whispered: "I saw her at the murder scene yesterday!"
"What?" Chen Liangshan showed his nervous expression at this time and asked loudly: "The crime scene? Why would she go to that place?"
While Chen Liangshan was speaking, Xu Tiannan had been silently observing the changes in the other party's expression. He could clearly see the frown between the brows and the clasped thumbs of the other party when he spoke. These changes undoubtedly revealed a message, that is, this
The topic made Chen Liangshan feel nervous.
However, micro-expressions can only reflect a person's emotions and cannot explore the heart. Therefore, Xu Tiannan also attributed the reason why Chen Liangshan was nervous about this issue to being worried about his wife.
Xu Tiannan said: "Don't worry, she was not in danger yesterday, but then again...don't you know she went for an interview yesterday afternoon?"
Chen Liangshan let out a long sigh, shook his head and said, "I rarely interfere with her work, and I was working here all the time yesterday afternoon."
As he spoke, Chen Liangshan pointed to a public toilet in the distance, which happened to be next to a drainage channel. He explained: "Here! I told you about the circuit maintenance work in that public toilet."
"So..." Xu Tiannan put down his phone, looked at the other person's expression carefully and asked, "So, you were in this park the whole time before you met with me and Officer Wen last night?"
At this time, Chen Liangshan was so nervous that cold sweat broke out on his palms. He finally understood that Xu Tiannan was indeed doubting himself and suspected that he was the murderer of Liu Jianmin, and his next answer was crucial. If there were any mistakes in his answer, it would cause
If the other party is suspicious, the consequences will be disastrous.
Therefore, Chen Liangshan also knew very well that his current ability to manage expressions was simply not enough to deceive Xu Tiannan.
So he made a very painful look, grabbed his hair tightly with both hands, and said angrily: "Hey... yes! It's all my fault that I spent an entire afternoon in this zoo yesterday in order to make dozens of dollars, but I ended up getting the money."
Nannan forgot the time after school! This incident was like a trigger, exposing all the long-standing problems between Yanran and me..."
Although Chen Liangshan's expression was in pain, Xu Tiannan's heart at this time was half sympathy and half expectation. He was extremely looking forward to Chen Liangshan actually repairing the circuit in this park yesterday. In that case, the suspicion could be cleared directly, and for him
It is said that ten thousand people are unwilling to believe that their brother is a murderer.
Xu Tiannan patted the other party's shoulder and comforted him softly: "Don't worry, Liangshan. I can tell from Yanran's words that although she blames you, she definitely has no intention of not wanting to live with you."
Chen Liangshan tilted his head, revealing his red and swollen eyes and said solemnly: "Really...really?"
Xu Tiannan nodded and said with an expression of embarrassment: "I'm not afraid of your laughter if I tell you something. Just at the scene of yesterday's murder, your wife just used her own strength to play with me and a dozen other police officers.
between."
Chen Liangshan forced a smile, "She? Xiao Yanran? Can she deceive you, Xu Tiannan?"
Xu Tiannan smiled awkwardly, "Although judging from yesterday's incident, she is a woman who will do whatever it takes to do her job, but this does not deny that she is an excellent woman!"
Chen Liangshan didn't seem to expect that his wife could still have such abilities, but he still asked worriedly: "Then... what are you going to do with her? If she interferes with the police's handling of the case, she should at least be detained administratively, right?"
"What are you talking about?" Xu Tiannan lightly punched the opponent and said in a low voice: "The losses the criminal investigation detachment has suffered at the hands of reporters would be enough to circle the earth. After all, she is also your wife.
!I won’t let anything happen to her.”
Hearing these words, Chen Liangshan also had mixed feelings in his heart. He hoped that everything that happened yesterday was a nightmare. At least now he could face Xu Tiannan with a clear conscience and face this friend who sincerely hoped that he would be a good friend.
Although Xu Tiannan said this out of sincerity, he still had one last question in his mind: how to find out the evidence that the other party was indeed repairing the circuit here yesterday without being discovered by Chen Liangshan?
