I don't want to solve the case when I'm a little policeman.

Chapter 653 The Truth Comes Out
Xu Zheng and Nie Zhenglei had just finished eating and were about to leave when they didn't expect a sudden call from Zhu Kaiwen.

It turned out to be the suicide case of the painter Qin Lun. Since Xu Zheng left, Qiao Shandong, the head of the criminal police team in Songshan District, immediately organized personnel to conduct a comprehensive investigation on this case.

In addition to investigating the painter Qin Lun's largest client when he held his painting exhibition two months before his death, people were also sent to check his various social media apps, and they also re-interrogated the confessions of his family, friends and agent...

More importantly, Qiao Shandong followed Xu Zheng's suggestion and checked for similar cases across the country.

The result shocked the investigators. It turned out that apart from the case just happened in Shanghai, a painter died in Yangcheng three years ago. The cause of death was that the deceased’s car was rear-ended and caught fire...

Five years ago, a painter in his 40s in Yanjing also suffered a tragic accident...

Going forward, there is no such case in the national case database. The local police in Yangcheng and Yanjing did not treat the cases of these two painters as homicides, but the investigators at the time were suspicious, so, Put the case file into the backlog.

Qiao Shandong checked further and found that the death time of these three painters was a few months after the opening of their solo exhibitions, and similarly, their paintings were multiplied several times during their lifetime.

It can be said that the value of life paintings has increased.

If the three cases were to be investigated together, the Mordu Criminal Police Corps would have to come forward. No, this matter was left in the hands of the Fourth Criminal Police Detachment. Detachment Yang had long known about the case because of Zhuang Qiang and the three of them.

So Zhu Kaiwen and Liu Linlin were sent to Songshan District Criminal Police Brigade to supervise the case.

At ten o'clock in the evening, after Xu Zheng said goodbye to Nie Zhenglei, he came to the Criminal Police Brigade in Songshan District.

After greeting each other in the conference room, Xu Zheng, Zhu Kaiwen, Liu Linlin, Qiao Shandong and their men began to study and judge the case.

Qiao Shandong took the initiative to recount the clues he had so far, and finally said: "The cause of death for the model of the girl picture is the same as that of the painter Qin Lun, who committed suicide by jumping off a building.

It's just that the girl is not a native of Shanghai, but a student of Qin Lun's studio. The place where she committed suicide was in her hometown of Yuhang City. The local police once came to Shanghai to investigate, but they did not find that the girl's suicide was related to Qin Lun.

However, out of humanitarianism afterwards, Qin Lun actually gave the girl's parents a personal donation of up to 200 million.

We re-investigated the girl's suicide case today, but we haven't found the truth yet.

Perhaps, Qin Lun's suicide was because someone forced him to jump off a building because of the girl's suicide.

Of course, there may be other reasons. I always feel that if Qin Lun is really related to his student's suicide, then even if he is arrested for this case, he won't jump off the building, right? "

"It's hard to say." Xu Zheng analyzed: "If Qin Lun is arrested, his paintings will basically be of little value, and the foundation and reputation he has worked so hard for most of his life will be ruined. A painter has a heart more than ordinary people. more vulnerable.

It cannot be ruled out that he committed suicide because of this. "

Zhu Kaiwen nodded, "There are thousands of reasons for suicide. It's hard to speculate on this. Let me tell you something. At six o'clock in the afternoon, I contacted my colleagues in Yangcheng and Yanjing. They were very interested in this case and worked overtime to investigate. I just sent it back. A set of investigative reports.

It is the customer information of two other painters for their art exhibition transactions. "

Liu Linlin said happily: "We sifted through these two materials and found that after purchasing paintings, more than a dozen customers successively sold them to a company in Pengcheng within two months. Ltd.

The company is involved in various cross-border transactions of art, and also has associated auction houses and large galleries under its name.

I don't know, Team Qiao, have you found Qin Lun's customer information? "

Qiao Shandong frowned, "Qin Lun's solo exhibitions are basically purchased with personal funds, except for a few paintings bought by some merchants as gifts, and only a few of the other paintings have been traded within the past two months.

But their trading partner is not this Yanhuang company.

Is it possible that because Qin Lun was not dead, this company did not purchase his paintings on a large scale? "

Xu Zheng rubbed his brows, connecting all these information in his mind. If Yanhuang Company was really operating all this behind the scenes, then they couldn't just use the picture of a girl to force Qin Lun to commit suicide. There should be other means. In order to sell a lot of works, in addition to the painting itself, it has to be promoted and packaged.

And some painters can't stand the accumulation of time, and want to become famous sooner, they will take shortcuts, such as spending a lot of money to buy a high-level painting as their own, or find a master who is better than his painting level to be a gunner for themselves
The secrets in these industries, Yanhuang Company, as a large company with commercial operations, should have it at hand if they want to investigate.

Even the truth of this case is that Yanhuang Company secretly cultivated these painters, fattened them up, and then assassinated them. After the painters died, their paintings would inevitably increase in value.

It's just that this kind of method cannot be used frequently. If Yanhuang Company really uses this method, it should indicate that their company is not well managed or needs a lot of money, because a legitimate company does not need to kill chickens to get eggs.

Win-win between them and the painter is the right way.

He asked curiously: "Brigade Qiao, have you investigated whether Qin Lun had contact with people from Yanhuang Company during this period? Can I have a look at the company's information?"

Liu Linlin quickly handed him the information about Yanhuang Company in her hand, "This company has a market value of [-] to [-] billion, and besides artworks, they also deal in antiques and jade.

There are jadeite and various kinds of nephrite. "

It turns out that this is still a listed company. Xu Zheng checked the company's stock prices in the past five years and found that they have been rising steadily and are not affected by industry fluctuations at all. This shows that they have sufficient cash and abundant resources.

Jade stones in particular accounted for half of their company's revenue. They bought a large amount of rough jadeite from abroad, and then sold them to several rough stone trading places in Nanhai Province for gambling.

Seeing this, Xu Zheng felt that his speculation just now was wrong. Such a large company has more than one billion in cash flow alone, and there is no need to spend time on a few painters who have not yet achieved great success.

Just take Qin Lun. It took a few months for the painting to appreciate in value after his death, but it would only be an extra [-] million.

And it would take longer to realize this [-] million yuan, which is not worthwhile at all.

Qiao Shandong had someone play a few screenshots of people Qin Lun met in his office, home, teahouse, etc. a month before his death. There are a lot of people.

Just a few days before he jumped off the building, he attended a party hosted by the city's painting association.

Therefore, it is difficult to find out who is the agent of Yanhuang Company among these people. "

At this time, Xu Zheng expressed his guess, "Everyone, I think we should not focus our investigation on Yanhuang Company, but rather investigate someone in this company.

Yanhuang Company makes hundreds of millions or even billions every year, so there is no need to mess with these painters.

But the actions of their company’s individuals cannot be ruled out. "

Zhu Kaiwen reacted quickly. Thinking of Xu Zheng checking Yanhuang Company's stock market and jade trading just now, he asked, "Do you suspect that someone in Yanhuang Company took the risk because they lost all their money betting on stones?"

Gambling on stones can make you rich quickly, and jadeite cut out of stones bought for 1 yuan can be sold for tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions.

Gambling on stones can also lead to extreme poverty overnight. A large stone bought for hundreds of millions can't even be cut into jade worth tens of thousands of dollars.

Therefore, if someone in Yanhuang Company needs to do illegal things, such as embezzling public funds to lose money by gambling stones, then it is possible to start with these painters.

Xu Zheng checked the shareholder structure of Yanhuang Company, "I think the murderer's motive for committing the crime should be this reason. After all, they work in Yanhuang Company. It is easy to find the information of these painters, and because those who dare to operate the jade business across the border, Its courage is higher than the sky.

But no, it still needs to be investigated by local colleagues in Pengcheng. "

A smile appeared on Qiao Shandong's serious face when he heard the words. It is much easier to check an individual than a company. Generally, there is no conclusive evidence. It is so difficult to check a listed company. "Then I will contact my colleagues in Pengcheng tomorrow at work. After reading the information about Yanhuang Company, I felt that there was no need for such a large company to murder these three painters.

But personally, it's really possible.

Betting on stones, not to mention Nanhai Province and Yunshan Province, there are also quite a few jade trading venues in our magic city that gamble on stones. This kind of thing can be spent faster and more money than going to Omen. "

Gambling on stones is a legal act and is protected by law. Qiao Shandong was just complaining.

The research and judgment has basically come to an end here. The case itself is not complicated, and it is not considered a major case. The joint handling of the case by several cities will basically reveal the truth soon.

Qiao Shandong finally expressed his gratitude to Xu Zheng again, "Thanks to Director Xu's help this time, otherwise our brigade would probably close the case according to the fact that the deceased committed suicide by jumping off a building due to long-term schizophrenia."

Xu Zheng shook his head and denied, "That's because I happen to have some knowledge of forensic medicine. Apart from these, you will still doubt the reason why the deceased jumped from the building after finding the picture of the girl."

Zhu Kaiwen quickly interrupted the two of them. He looked sleepy, wishing he could just sleep in the meeting room, "It's alright, alright, don't be modest, it's almost early morning, let's leave first, why don't we talk about things tomorrow?"

"Okay, okay, since everyone is tired, let's end the meeting." Qiao Shandong smiled gently, and he was also a little sleepy. Besides, the case was clear, so there was no need to work overtime or not.

Xu Zheng naturally had no objection, because the winter in Shanghai was almost as cold as that in Changming. After the meeting, everyone didn't mention the idea of ​​having dinner together for supper.

At about twelve o'clock in the morning of the next day, Xu Zhengzheng and Nie Zhenglei were investigating the fifty or so rich women they found yesterday on the intranet, and received a call from Zhang Kaiwen, "Xiao Xu, as expected, Pengcheng After the police received our request letter early in the morning, they immediately sent people to investigate several shareholders and executives of Yanhuang Company.

I really found out a vice president who was mainly in charge of the jade business.

According to this person's itinerary, he came to Shanghai five days ago, and he left here three days ago, the day before Qin Lun committed suicide.

Moreover, this vice president has personally participated in stone gambling behaviors several times. According to investigations, he once lost 8000 million in Caiyun City. He is just a vice president with not many shares. He relies on his salary and dividends for a lifetime I can't make that much money either.

Now this person has been listed as a key suspect by us. "

Xu Zheng also became happy when he heard the news, "In this way, once you find out the evidence, then Zhuang Qiang and the others will be cleared of the suspicion, and the notice of the police in Shanghai to restrict their departure from the country will have to be revoked."

"Ha" Zhu Kaiwen said with a smile on the phone: "That's what I meant when I called you, to inform you that the suspicion of the three of Zhuang Qiang has been completely ruled out."

After hanging up the phone, Xu Zheng told Zhuang Qiang and the others the good news. Zhuang Qiang himself was mentally prepared and just smiled.

Long Chuchu had always believed in Xu Zheng, and his mentality had already been adjusted. Hearing this, he thanked Xu Zheng.

Only Situ Yao had the happiest face, and stood up excitedly. Gu Jia quickly patted him, "You are such an adult, and there is no city mansion at all. Do you need to be so excited about this matter?"

"Hey, I've been fantasizing about someone trying to harm me for the past two days, so I can't sleep or eat well." Seeing everyone looking at him, Situ Yao quickly sat down, lowered his head and whispered to Gu Jia.

Xu Zheng ignored him, it wasn't a big deal in the first place.

Nie Zhenglei laughed beside him and said, "Let me just say, you guys were just unlucky enough to encounter this incident. Look, once your director takes action, the case will be cleared up in two or three days."

Xu Zheng smiled and shook his head, "Okay, Director Nie, this matter is over, let's discuss the next work arrangement."

Although Xu Zheng was smiling now, he was actually smiling bitterly in his heart, because after working for a long time, he found the home addresses of more than 50 rich women, but there was no neighborhood where Ma Yuying lived.

Binhe No. [-] Courtyard.

The key is that the system map in Xu Zheng's mind still shows Ma Yuying's precise position. She is now in Binhe No. [-] Courtyard, and she has been here for so many days.

That is to say, the investigation work of the past few days was in vain.

Xu Zheng recalled his arrangements and reorganized his thoughts. Ma Yuying had indeed been to the Oriental Art Center on New Year's Day, but why was her information not shown on the customer list.

Doesn't her current age, appearance, temperament and other conditions meet the screening range set before?
Or is it her transgender?

Xu Zheng was rethinking one question after another in his mind. If Ma Yuying has not changed her gender, it means that she is currently under 30 years old or over 50 years old. It is easy for a woman to pretend to be old, and there will always be flaws in pretending to be young, especially her eyes.

For someone like her who has been hiding for ten years, caution has become her habit.

Therefore, Xu Zheng is more inclined to think that she has had plastic surgery to look older. She is 45 years old, so it is possible that she could have plastic surgery to look 50 or older.

But right now, the list of more than 50 people has come out, and Ma Yuying is not in it.

He was torn between whether to let everyone continue to conduct useless investigations, or to find a reason to stop it and rearrange the screening scope.

After looking at the busy crowd, he was full of energy and was about to go out to investigate those rich women according to the arrangement of him and Nie Zhenglei. Xu Zheng scratched his eyebrows, what should we do?
