Chapter 8

The next morning, the criminal police who stayed at Zeng's parents' house found that Zeng's father had left the house by himself, and he didn't know where he was going, and his mobile phone was turned off.

Gu Yexi and Mo Wang rushed to their house, and couldn't help dissing along the way. Why didn't they listen to the advice? !

Gu Yexi rushed upstairs in a hurry, and when she saw Zeng's mother, she asked, "Has your son contacted you? Where has your husband gone?"

Zeng's mother dodged her eyes, "I don't know."

Gu Yexi rolled her eyes five hundred times in her heart, "You know, where did he go? Did he go to find Zeng Tingyu?"

Mother Zeng looked at Gu Yexi hesitantly, and after a while, she finally said, "I don't know where they went, I just know that Ah Ting called him and he went out."

Gu Yexi: "When?"

Mother Zeng: "It's around 8 o'clock."

Gu Yexi: "Is there any place they often went to together when they were young, or a place that was meaningful to them?"

Mother Zeng frowned and thought for a while, "His father likes to take him fishing. There is a small stream in the suburbs not far from here. They go there every month. I don't know if they went there."

The road to the outskirts was difficult, and Gu Yexi didn't dare to drive too fast, but there were still bumps and bumps, which made him feel like he was about to vomit out last night's supper.

Li Zi: "Could Zeng Tingyu have already killed his father? It's been almost two hours."

Gu Yexi didn't speak, just looked at the car silently.

Mo Wang glanced at Gu Yexi and said, "Maybe not yet."

After driving to the suburbs, I saw a car parked nearby. The license plate number showed that it was Zeng's father's car.There was a small road ahead, and the car couldn't continue to drive forward. The three of them got out of the car and walked to the stream.

After walking for a while, I heard the sound of running water, but I didn't see anyone, nor heard their voices.

Li Zi whispered: "It's so quiet, can it be true?"

Gu Yexi made a "shh" motion to tell him not to make noise.

After walking for a while, I finally saw someone. Father Zeng was sitting by the stream, and there seemed to be traces of blood on his legs.Li Zi immediately rushed to check on the injury.

Seeing them, Zeng's father said angrily, "Hey, you boys, take me to the hospital. I broke my leg."

Mo Wang felt a little unbelievable, why did Zeng's father seem to be fine?

Gu Yexi asked, "Where's your son?"

Zeng's father answered irrelevantly, "I knew it, that bad boy can't do anything good, he only knows how to cause trouble."

Gu Yexi: "Where is he now?"

Father Zeng pointed to a tree not far away, "I tied it there and thought about it, you go find it yourself."

Gu Yexi and Mo Wang ran over immediately and found Zeng Tingyu behind the tree.A smelly sock was stuffed in his mouth, and he was tied up with fishing line and tree trunks.He was wearing thick makeup, which had already been spent at the moment, and it was messily pasted on his face, like an indifferent woman who was thrown into the cold and cried.Zeng Tingyu's eyes were in a trance, his lips trembled slightly, and he didn't respond to anyone who spoke to him.

Mo Wang looked at the man in front of him suspiciously, "What's going on, Zeng Tingyu came to kill his father, right? Why did he end up like this instead?"

Gu Yexi said: "He thought he could fight against the most fearful person. He came to see his father with heavy makeup on, and he probably beat him up before he could do anything in the future. Such a beating, what did he do? Confidence is gone, just panic, even more panic than before."

Mo Wang suddenly felt very sad, "Because he found that his protector is no longer effective, there is nothing to protect him, everything is in vain."

Gu Yexi waved his hand, "Untie him and take him back."

Li Zi drove Zeng's father's car and took him to the hospital first to treat the fall.Gu Yexi and Mo Wang took Zeng Tingyu back to the police station.Along the way, although Zeng Tingyu no longer looked like a frightened rabbit, she turned into a dazed hamster, sitting stupidly and quietly.

Mo Wang was a little worried, "Will there be any problems with his situation?"

Gu Yexi didn't seem worried, "He's already had a problem, hasn't he?"

Mo Wang listened and didn't say anything more, but he was still very worried and looked back at him frequently.

In the interrogation monitoring room.

Mo Wang: "What should we do now?"

Gu Yexi stared at Zeng Tingyu through the glass: "Let him sit for a while first."

Li Zi, who just came back from the hospital, said: "Father Zeng said that Zeng Tingyu has never liked to go fishing. Today, he suddenly took the initiative to ask him out. He thought that his son must have gotten into trouble and wanted to ask his father for help, so he went by himself. Arrived Later, seeing Zeng Tingyu wearing heavy makeup, Zeng's father slapped him without saying a word, then whipped him with a belt, and finally tied him to a tree to make him think about it. Zeng's father didn't Believe that he killed someone, feel that he just met a bad person, was led badly, and somehow got in touch with the murderer. By the way, he said that Zeng Tingyu was holding a bottle of wine, as if to give it to him, When he beat his son, he threw the wine aside, and I called someone to collect evidence."

Meng Ning suddenly felt a little sympathetic to Zeng Tingyu, "Isn't this too embarrassing?"

Gu Yexi sighed, "Meng Ning, you are responsible for going in and talking to him."

Meng Ning had a question mark on his face, "Huh? Boss, don't you usually go there?"

Gu Yexi: "Look at the figures of us, it will remind him of the person who bullied him, is it appropriate to go in?"

Meng Ning didn't have the confidence, "Well, I don't have enough experience, what should I do if I mess up?"

Gu Yexi handed her a small earphone, "Wear it, I will guide you."

Meng Ning took Dai Shang, "Okay, what's the first thing to do when you go in?"

Gu Yexi: "Help him remove his makeup."

Meng Ning took a deep breath and went in with a pack of makeup remover towels.When Zeng Tingyu heard the sound of the door opening, she immediately stared at the door nervously, only to relax when she saw that the person who came was a girl.

Meng Ning squeezed out a gentle smile as best she could, "Xiaoyu? My name is Meng Ning, you can call me sister Ning."

Zeng Tingyu didn't speak, just lowered his head slightly, secretly sizing up Meng Ning with his eyes hidden behind his bangs.

Meng Ning carefully moved the chair in front of him, and then pulled out a makeup remover wipe, "Xiaoyu, let me wipe your face first, okay?"

Zeng Tingyu didn't respond, Meng Ning slowly reached out and tried to touch his face, but he didn't resist.Meng Ning gently lifted his face with the back of her hand, and carefully wiped off the messy makeup on his face.

Li Zi, who was watching in the interrogation monitoring room, couldn't help sighing, "Boss, I feel like there is a halo on Meng Ning's head."

Huang Jiade echoed, "I've never seen her so loving as a mother."

Gu Yexi: "Which one of you two is going to marry? I will immediately approve the marriage leave."

Li Zi: "The weather is really nice today."

Huang Jiade: "It's cloudless."

Mo Wang: ...

After removing the makeup, I can finally see Zeng Tingyu's facial features clearly.His face is very thin, even thinner than in the profile photo, with a standard slapped face.There are a few freckles on the fair and clean skin, which is not ugly at all, but a little pitiful.

According to Gu Yexi's instructions, Meng Ning took out the photos of the first and second deceased and asked, "Xiaoyu, have you seen these two people recently?

Zeng Tingyu dodged his eyes and nodded.

Meng Ning continued to ask: "Did you follow them home?"

Zeng Tingyu nodded, then shook his head again.

Meng Ning: "What does shaking your head mean?"

Zeng Tingyu bit her nails and whispered, "We."

"us?"

"Sister Yan and I."

"Both you and Sister Yan went? What happened after you went?"

"Sister Yan, sister Yan killed them."

"How did she kill it?"

"She gave them alcohol, alcohol, alcohol, poisonous."

"and then?"

"I waited, waited, waited until Sister Yan said that they were dead, I can, I can beat them." Speaking of this, Zeng Tingyu suddenly became a little giddy, "I, I stabbed them with a compass, And kicked them. Sister Yan found me a belt, I, I beat them, beat them!"

"and then?"

"Then, sister Yan took me home. She, she knows everything. When I was a child, I was bullied, and she was the one who protected me. She, she told me that when she came back from abroad, she would talk to me Co-rent, and co-write comics with me." Zeng Tingyu suddenly and violently hit her head with her hand, "But she doesn't want me anymore, she doesn't want me anymore..."

Meng Ning was frightened and immediately tried to stop him. Li Zi and Jia De rushed in, scaring him even more.Finally, a sedative was given to him, and he stopped making trouble.

After tossing around for a long time, I didn't eat lunch, and the dinner time was almost over. The whole team was tired and hungry. Li Zi dug out a bag of broken biscuits in the innermost corner of the drawer to satisfy his hunger, "What do you think, with that Is Yan Fangfang related?"

Gu Yexi shook his head, "It looks like he's the only one on the surveillance, so it shouldn't have anything to do with her. When he appeared as Yan Fangfang, he didn't think it was him, but another person. He subconsciously wanted to have something to do with the murder. Put aside the relationship, so put the responsibility on this identity."

Mo Wang: "Is it possible that he is pretending? In the previous monitoring, although his face was invisible, his body language was confident and cautious. Why is the situation so bad now?"

Gu Yexi sighed, "That's because he wasn't himself at the time. Just like acting, some actors are very shy. If you ask him to do some shameful things in his own identity, he can't do it. But If it’s an acting, it’s no problem to use the identity in the play, and even make you think that he is so unrestrained. The same is true here, when he incarnates as his protector Yan Fangfang, he is no longer himself, He's an omnipotent she."

Li Zi: "But when we found him by the stream, that bear was not omnipotent at all? Seriously, his father and him are so different in age. A boy in his 20s can't beat a 60-year-old boy." Old man? And his father accidentally sprained his foot later. Even if the old man strikes first, he can resist, right?"

Gu Yexi: "Even if he used Yan Fangfang's identity to kill people, he would only dare to use poison to death, which is a non-confrontational method. When he hits someone, he dares to strike after he is 100% sure that the person is dead. His father beat him, His psychological defenses collapsed, and he no longer has the energy to do so. His identity has changed from a protector to a victim.”

Meng Ning came in with a bag of food and distributed it to them, "Come here, let's eat something. By the way, boss, Zeng Tingyu's DNA matches the urine DNA on the face of the third deceased. Zeng Tingyu's computer has been repaired." , which contains the detailed information of the first two deceased. He observed them for a long time, what kind of girls he likes, his usual schedule, where he lives, etc. He also recorded the information of a few people, which should be the target that he has not had time to start with. The bottle of wine that Zeng's father dropped by the stream was also found, and it was poisonous, the same as the one that poisoned the deceased before."

Gu Yexi: "Yes."

Li Zi took out a fried chicken leg and handed it to Gu Yexi, "Boss, are you hungry?"

Gu Yexi yawned, "I'm not going to eat, I'm going home to sleep. You guys should go back to rest early after eating, there's still a lot of follow-up work tomorrow."

Seeing that Gu Yexi was about to leave, Mo Wang hurriedly followed.

Meng Ning raised his eyebrows and looked at the backs of the two people who left, "What's going on? Are you going out and in?"

Li Zi said casually: "They live in the opposite door, so let's take the car, little Momo!"

Meng Ning said thoughtfully, "Really?"

Huang Jiade gnawed on a bun, "Look at your treacherous eyes, what are you doing?"

Meng Ning bit the chicken bone and glanced at him, "Hmph, eat your food."

Even if the case was solved, it took only three days from taking over the case to solving it. Old man Pan was very satisfied with this, and gave him a 38 yuan red envelope with a wave of his thugs, saying it was a small incentive for him to continue working hard.

Mo Wang's seat was just opposite to Gu Yexi. When Gu Yexi received old man Pan's red envelope, he couldn't help but kicked him under the table, complaining: "Pan is too picky."

Mo Wang was a little confused, "Uh, um."

Gu Yexi thought, no way, old man Pan tricked me thousands of times, I treat him like first love, now that I have little curly hair in my hand, I must take the opportunity to trick him!

He rolled his eyes, stood up, hooked his fingers at Mo Wang, "Come, come, come with me."

Mo Wang obediently followed him out.

Meng Ning sighed, "This little Momo is too obedient!"

Gu Yexi led Mo Wang to the door of Bureau Pan's office, and Mo Wang looked at him a little at a loss, "This?"

Gu Yexi smirked, "Don't worry, you can just nod your head vigorously later."

Mo Wang didn't know what Gu Yexi was going to do, so he subconsciously held him back, "Captain Gu, how about I send you a red envelope?"

Gu Yexi listened, laughed like a fool, and put his hand on Mo Wang's shoulder, "Listen, you are now in my team and you are my man, so are you listening to me? Or old man Pan? What? Although he is your uncle, a close neighbor is not as good as a distant relative, right?"

Mo Wang felt that Gu Yexi was talking nonsense in a serious manner, but he nodded obediently.

Gu Yexi knocked on the door very satisfied, and Pan Ju's voice came from inside, "Come in."

Gu Yexi pushed the door open, and when Pan Ju saw Mo Wang, he immediately became amiable with a smile on his face, and asked, "What's the matter?"

"It's been a few days since Mo Wang joined the team. When he first came, there was a case, and our team didn't take him to eat a delicious meal. Last time, he just ordered a takeaway. I don't think I can count. Well. Now that the case just ends, and it’s the weekend again, I want our team to have a delicious meal.” Gu Yexi gently tugged at the corner of Mo Wang’s clothes, and Mo Wang immediately nodded cooperatively.

Ju Pan thought that Gu Yexi was going to invite him to go with him, and nodded with a smile, "It's good, it's good. I should have time on weekends."

"Oh, the high-salt, high-sugar, and high-cholesterol dinners that our young people waste their lives and waste time, you don't have to deliberately make time to participate, Pan Ju. As long as you, hehehe, just subsidize it." Gu Yexi continued Touching the corner of Mo Wang's clothes, Mo Wang hesitated for a moment, but still nodded.

Ju Pan's smile froze, but for Mo Wang's sake, he still agreed, "Okay, you will get the bill for reimbursement after you eat."

Gu Yexi: "It's settled, you are not allowed to play tricks."

Pan Weiren was unhappy, "When will I stop talking, it's okay, you can eat as much as you want, I'll treat you if you eat well."

Gu Yexi walked out of Bureau Pan's office contentedly.In fact, it's not that he doesn't have money or is picky, he is just trying to cheat Pan.

Mo Wang said in a low voice: "When I came, I said that I would like to..."

"Wait until you get paid."

"I have money now to please."

"No."

"Ok?"

Gu Yexi tilted her head arrogantly and said, "Old Man Pan tricked me five hundred times, and I finally got to cheat him once. How could I let such a good opportunity go?! Hahahahaha!"

Mo Wang felt that Gu Yexi might really only be two years old this year.
