CP is forcing me to have a wife, and the male protagonist asked me who he is
Chapter 429: The dead who fell from the head, a hot potato (Plot chapter, no female lead role in thi
At the beginning of the movie, as the subtitles such as "Producer", "Producer", "Leading Starring" turned page by page, a table appeared on the big screen.
There were newspapers in the style of the Republic of China on the table, and the front-page articles were all shocking news headlines.
With the black and white photos and the faint sound of a radio crackling in the background, it seems to bring the audience back to the past.
"The Imperial Japanese Army is sweeping northwestern Hebei with all its might and will achieve complete victory in suppressing bandits by the end of the year..."
"President Wang Jingwei delivered a speech in Nanjing yesterday, saying he would never give up the last hope of peace talks with the Chongqing government..."
"Negotiations between the Shanghai Textile Factory Association and the General Labor Union broke down. It is expected that the textile workers' strike will continue this week..."
The close-up lingered on each of the newspaper headlines.
Suddenly, a new newspaper was slammed onto the table.
Then, a middle-aged man with a big belly and wearing an old-style police uniform broke into the picture.
He stood at the table with his back to the camera and read aloud a passage from the new newspaper.
"Shanghai's public security has been worrying this year. Gangs have been fighting in broad daylight, hurting innocent people, and the international impact has been very bad..."
While the man was speaking, there were many sounds of street fighting mixed into the background, and even gunshots and screams were heard from time to time.
At this point, the scene flashed back to a statue of Guanyin.
This wooden sculpture is exquisitely crafted and has a glossy color, and is obviously very valuable.
But the expression of Guanyin on the statue seems to be smiling, as if she is watching everything in the world with a pair of calm eyes through the curling incense.
"Director Chen Kexing"
As this last line of words slowly appeared and disappeared on the screen, the story finally officially began.
The scene changes and we arrive at Xiafei Road, the most prosperous street in Shanghai.
There are a lot of cars and people flowing in and out, it is the busiest time of the day.
"boom--"
Suddenly there was a loud noise on the street.
Pedestrians turned their heads and saw something falling from the sky, denting the roof of a car parked on the side of the road and shattering the window glass.
A bystander who loved to watch the fun walked forward curiously to take a closer look.
But he found that a bloody human hand seemed to be exposed on the edge of the concave roof.
He turned his head in panic and saw two wide-open dead eyes, staring at him through the glassless car window, as if they were unwilling to close their eyes in death.
“Ah——someone’s dead!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
A shrill scream was heard in the street.
The crowd around immediately ran away frantically.
Several passing cars suddenly drove crookedly and collided with each other with a bang.
The scene was chaotic.
"The newspapers have been criticizing our police department for the past few days, and now a dead man fell from the sky in broad daylight on Xiafei Road with a fatal gunshot wound, causing panic among the people of Shanghai!
"After three days, you haven't found anything you can report! What do I keep you guys for? Damn, you're a bunch of good-for-nothings!"
The scene switched back to the back of the middle-aged man in police uniform standing in front of the table.
As the man gesticulated and scolded loudly, the camera finally moved.
Following his line of sight, the group of people standing behind the table were included in the picture.
They were also a group of men wearing old-style police uniforms from the Republic of China era. They were of different heights, weights and bodies.
However, what was common was that although everyone stood respectfully, with an expression as if they were ready to be scolded.
But everyone showed the same sly desire to protect themselves, and it was obvious that no one wanted to get involved in this trouble.
The middle-aged man who was speaking glanced around the office, but didn't see what he wanted, and felt a little embarrassed.
He frowned and cast his eyes towards a corner of the crowd.
"Officer Liao, what do you think?"
The group of policemen standing in front of the table separated themselves, revealing a man who had been blocked behind.
The man called Officer Liao is tall, with broad shoulders and a thin waist, yet he looks powerful.
The police uniform, which looked loose on others, looked particularly smart on him.
He originally lowered his head slightly in thought.
After being called by the middle-aged man, he immediately raised his head and revealed a handsome face.
"Commander, there is something I don't understand."
"explain."
“The deceased was first shot dead, and then thrown from the Sassoon Building in the busiest part of Joffre Road in the middle of the day.
"The murderer had no intention of hiding anything. Instead, he seemed to be deliberately announcing it to the world, fearing that others would not know about it. He also did it very cleanly, leaving no clues at the scene."
Officer Liao expressed his biggest suspicion about this murder case.
"What do you want to say?"
The middle-aged policeman called the Bureau Chief was getting a little impatient.
"I would like to say that the murderer is probably a professional killer. And the identity of the deceased should not be as simple as a pawnshop owner."
Officer Liao threw out his final conclusion.
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone in the office exchanged glances quickly.
This murder case has been the police department's top priority these days.
All available police officers were sent to assist in investigating the case, including Officer Liao, the police sergeant who had just been transferred from another area.
As soon as he came into contact with this case, he felt that it was full of doubts.
The dead man lying on the street was named Xia, and he was the owner of a small pawnshop in Shanghai.
The place where he fell is called Sassoon Building.
What is the Sassoon Building?
This 13-story Western-style building is currently the tallest building on the Bund in Shanghai.
It is not only the office building of the Shanghai branch of Sassoon & Co., but also houses the Cathay Hotel on the top floors, which is a well-known top luxury hotel in Shanghai.
Therefore, those who can come in and out are either rich or noble, and ordinary people cannot appear here.
How could Manager Xia, a small pawnshop owner, be qualified to enter here?
This is the first doubt.
The second suspicious point is that the way Manager Xia died was obviously too ostentatious.
I'm afraid that either someone is deliberately killing people to establish his authority, or he is conveying some message.
It doesn't look like an ordinary homicide at all.
If these two doubts are obvious enough, the third one is even stranger.
All the local police officers in the police station seemed to have agreed to remain secretive about this case.
Even if I had to investigate under the scolding of the director.
But as soon as Shangguan turned his head and wasn't paying attention, everyone began to tacitly pretend to obey but actually disobeyed, and no one was willing to work hard.
One or two would be fine, but if everyone is like this...
Although Officer Liao was pointed out by the chief and had to express his opinion on the case, he still felt that something was wrong.
Sure enough, the next second the director held his hand with surprise as if he had found a treasure.
"I know that Chief Inspector Liao is talented and young, and he will definitely be able to solve this case! From now on, you will be fully responsible for this case, and everyone in the department will cooperate vigorously!"
As soon as he said this, before Officer Liao could react, everyone in the office immediately smiled and surrounded him to compliment him.
"Yeah, yeah, I'm old now, and my mind isn't as clear as that of young people. I can't help but accept it~"
"You and I can't solve this case, but for a young talent like Chief Inspector Liao, it's just a piece of cake!"
"If you need any help, just let me know. I, Old Li, will be the first to come..."
The joy in the office was so intense that Chief Inspector Liao couldn't even laugh.
After finishing the special project meeting, he returned to his office and was about to go to the site to take a look.
As the door opened, an old local policeman under his command walked in with a frown on his face.
"Sir, you've been tricked by the others!"
"How to say?"
"The Liang Mansion is behind this case! Everyone knows that the affairs of the Liang Mansion are not easy to handle. If you are not careful, you will die without a burial place! So no one in the bureau dares to touch this hot potato..."
Seeing his men's worried faces, Officer Liao couldn't help but frown slightly.
"Tell me in detail, what is the Liang Mansion?"
