The Book of Death by Heart Poison

Chapter 72 The Ghost Child

"It wasn't me!" Cao Fei slapped his hands heavily on the table, "Who said I killed Liang Yijun?"

Yue Yue stared at him, "Which people say it's not important, the important thing is, what did you do in the villa in the early morning of the 12th?"

The interrogation was supposed to be done by Hua Chong and Liu Zhiqin, but they both had other things to do at this time and couldn't get away, so Yue Yue pulled Pei Qing to stand on top temporarily.

The lines on Cao Fei's cheeks couldn't help twitching, his eyes dodged, "What else can I do? I'm staying in the living room on the first floor with everyone else!"

Yue Yue said: "But after your carnival ended, you went to find Liang Yijun alone."

Cao Fei froze.

"Do you think you did it without anyone noticing it?" Yue Yue said, "What is your purpose of looking for Liang Yijun in the middle of the night?"

"Me!" Cao Fei repeatedly scratched his fingers, sweating, and said after a while, "It's not what you think! I'm going to find him, because I have something to tell him! But when I knocked on the door, there was no one inside." If someone answers, I will go back!"

"What's the matter? What's the matter?" Pei Qing, an aloof forensic doctor, was forced to change after Hua Chong came to the special operations team. Before, she didn't bother to say a word when facing the people involved in the case, and only liked to "talk" to the victim. I can also skillfully ask the suspect questions, "Isn't it normal to knock on the door in the middle of the night and no one answers? Didn't you think that Liang Yijun was already asleep before knocking on the door?"

Cao Fei took a deep breath, "Whatever you say, what I did and didn't do, I know best in my heart!"

"Then why do you want to explain to him?" Yue Yue said with a cold face, "We pay attention to evidence and motivation in handling cases, and we don't pay attention to 'just say'. Before and after Liang Yijun was killed, you knocked on the door of his room in the middle of the night, After Liang Yijun disappeared, you took the initiative to stay in the villa to 'wait for him'. If you can't explain the reasons for these two incidents, then I will tell you clearly that you will be very suspicious."

Cao Fei straightened his back suddenly, his lips trembled, and after a while, he collapsed like a collapsing mound.

"It's really nothing to do with me that he was killed." Cao Fei lowered his head heavily, but raised his shoulders high, looking really weird, "I actually... I actually wanted to talk to him a long time ago, The atmosphere was good that day, and I thought it was an opportunity."

Yue Yue asked: "What are you talking about?"

"Work." Cao Fei smiled self-deprecatingly, "Didn't you all find out? They said that I was jealous of him because he was not able to become the official leader of the group."

Cao Fei's words were full of grievances, and after speaking, his voice choked up a little, which made Yue Yue and Pei Qing frown involuntarily.

In the summer of the previous year, Liang Yijun joined Mengxiang and did some odd jobs in the suspense team.At first, everyone suspected that Liang Yijun was recruited because of his outstanding looks.Because he seems to know nothing about suspense creation, and it is well known in Dreamland that female bosses in their 40s especially like beautiful skins.

During that time, some people even privately said that Liang Yijun had an affair with the female boss and was the lover of the female boss.

But it didn't take long for anyone to say that anymore.Because although Liang Yijun doesn’t participate in the creation very much, he has a good personality. As long as the work that others don’t want to do is entrusted to him, he will definitely finish it properly. Moreover, he is very modest and good at learning. Anyone with eyes can see it , he is improving little by little.When encountering problems involving the police, he appeared to be very professional, and the suggestions he gave were similar to the answers Li Aiqi got from consulting police friends.

It was only later that the team found out that Liang Yijun had been a policeman before, and after resigning, he wanted to find an interesting job, so he came to Dreamland.

Now, Liang Yijun became a "consultant", and no one said that he got into the company because of his appearance.

Cao Fei had no idea about Liang Yijun at first, thinking that he was just like other colleagues.But in the first half of this year, the leader of the suspense team resigned. He had been the second child for many years, so he thought he could be promoted now.However, the female boss only asked him to be in charge of the group affairs, without any promotion or salary increase.In the first one or two months, he comforted himself, thinking that the boss just wanted to see his performance, as long as he showed his enthusiasm for work and completed a few projects, the position of team leader would be his sooner or later.

But when he was full of energy, he heard rumors from other team leaders—the boss thought that he was just a piece of material for doing things. Compared with him, Liang Yijun was more suitable to be the team leader.

He was angry and wronged for a moment, not understanding how Liang Yijun was better than himself.Liang Yijun has almost never created by himself, and has been helping the team members. The only thing he can show is the professional knowledge of criminal police.But so what?You are a good policeman, so why come to dreamland, can you continue to be a policeman?

His heart became more and more unbalanced, and he couldn't help observing Liang Yijun every day, and the more he observed him, the more depressed he felt.Because colleagues seem to like Liang Yijun very much, and because he was anxious about the progress and the quality of his works, he had conflicts with his team members several times.If the team leader is selected based on popularity, he will definitely be thrown out by Liang Yijun.

He identified Liang Yijun as a competitor, and vaguely felt that the other party might not compete with him for the team leader at all.Long before he learned that Liang Yijun was the son of Liang Haijun, he planned to talk to Liang Yijun about the team leader.He felt that he might be able to persuade Liang Yijun not to compete with him for the team leader. As long as Liang Yijun didn't mean that, he would still take the position of team leader.

But a while ago, the team took over a big project and was so busy that he didn't think about how to tell Liang Yijun.Later, the project was approved, and Liang Yijun's identity as a rich second generation was also exposed.The first reaction of everyone in Mengxiang was disbelief. After Liang Yijun confessed frankly, many people still thought it was incredible that Liang Haijun's son actually worked in such a small company as Mengxiang.

Cao Fei was shocked at first, and then felt that his position as team leader was secure.He hadn't looked for Liang Yijun before, and he had a concern that he was promoted not only by position, but also by salary.What social animals care about most is income. Although they say that doing the job they like is the most important thing, but if it is not necessary to support the family, who would like to be a cow or a horse in the company, and have to be angry with the boss and Party A?

But Liang Yijun is different. Will the rich second generation still care about the promotion money?Is the monthly salary that Mengxiang pays Liang Yijun enough for a fraction of his pocket money?

Cao Fei judged that Liang Yijun only came to Dreamland to work because he wanted to experience life, or because he really liked suspense creation.

Cao Fei began to approach Liang Yijun, flattering Liang Yijun, planning to talk to Liang Yijun alone at an appropriate time, and begging him not to compete with him for the position of team leader.

Soon, the right time came.

Li Aiqi proposed to be a guest at Liang Yijun's house, Cao Fei quickly agreed, and prepared the draft early. On the night of the 11th and the early morning of the 12th, everyone played out of shape in Liang Yijun's villa, and only Cao Fei remained awake.

Afterwards, everyone returned to their own rooms. Cao Fei quietly went outside Liang Yijun's room and knocked on the door when there was no movement outside.

He was actually hesitant.Because he is asking Liang Yijun for something, if Liang Yijun is already asleep at this time, then he shouldn't disturb him.But if he didn't say it at this time, it would be very difficult for him to have the opportunity to get along with Liang Yijun alone.He didn't want others to know that he "begged" Liang Yijun for the position of team leader in the future.

No one answered the knock on the door, Cao Fei hesitated even more.It seemed that Liang Yijun had really fallen asleep.

After standing at the door for a while, Cao Fei finally decided not to speak for the time being, to see if there was a chance the next day.

However, Liang Yijun disappeared the next day.Cao Fei was afraid of being found out that he had been looking for Liang Yijun in the middle of the night, so he tried to calm down.At night, Liang Yijun hadn't appeared yet, and everyone began to realize that something might have happened.Li Aiqi proposed to go back to Nanfu City and inform Liang's family.Cao Fei suddenly had an idea—he should take the initiative to stay and wait for Liang Yijun. If Liang Yijun came back, he would be very moved to learn that he had been waiting for him. Then he just needs to mention the team leader a little bit, and Liang Yijun should not say no to him. If Liang Yijun really had a good or bad idea, he might even say a few good words in front of the boss, and it would be even more impossible to argue with him.

He preferred the former situation. After dismissing his colleagues, he went into the woods to search.But because of apprehension and fear, he didn't go too deep in the woods.

"That's the truth." Under the bright light, Cao Fei was listless, with a kind of exhausted excitement, "I only asked Liang Yijun so that he would not compete with me for the position of team leader. I admit that I am jealous of him, but I hurt him a little bit. I don't even have the heart. I, I am an ordinary person, how dare I do that kind of thing!"

Laijiang City and Nanfu City are 3 hours away by high-speed train, and the publishing studio "Fengman" of "A Field in the Clouds" is located in Laijiang City.

Liu Zhiqin and several Nanfu criminal police rushed to find Huang Jiao, the boss of "Fengman".

"Yes, we are responsible for the production of this book." Huang Jiao said: "But you just asked if this book was published by us. I have to correct this. We are just a book topic selection studio. Strictly speaking, we have no The publisher is Laijiang Publishing House."

As he spoke, Huang Jiao clicked on the copyright page.

Liu Zhiqin didn't know the publishing process, and said, "But the author is in direct contact with you, isn't that right?"

Huang Jiao nodded, "Yes. But this author..."

Liu Zhiqin: "Huh?"

"Careless, is it a female author?" Huang Jiao frowned: "I'm sorry, I used to be an editor, but I have been transferred to a management position in the past few years. I am not specifically responsible for editing work, but only for major authors. Is this a newcomer? I really don't have much impression of her. You wait, I'll let the editor in charge come over, and you ask the editor in charge."

Soon, Huang Jiao called a tall, thin middle-aged man.

"Tang Han." Huang Jiao introduced: "Our backbone editor here."

Liu Zhiqin looked up at Tang Han. This key editor looked very nervous, quite different from the senior publisher he imagined.

"What's wrong with you?" Huang Jiao also realized that something was wrong with Tang Han, and suddenly panicked, "Don't tell me what's wrong with this book?"

Tang Han hurriedly said: "The book is fine, the content has been reviewed several times by me and the publishing house."

Huang Jiao let out a sigh of relief, but was still puzzled: "Then why are you so nervous?"

Liu Zhiqin said in a timely manner: "I'm not here today to investigate your publishing issues, I just want to know the true identity of the author of this book. Negligence is just a pen name, who is behind this pen name? Also, as far as I know, " The sales volume of Qian Mo Yun Li is bad, and the author is not well-known. How did you find this author?"

Tang Han sat down and adjusted his glasses, "We didn't find out, but someone asked me to publish this novel."

Before Liu Zhiqin could speak, Huang Jiao became anxious, "What's the matter with you, Old Tang? You actually took orders in private?"

"Maple Slow" expressly stipulates that the responsible editor is not allowed to help others publish in private, because an editor once charged tens of thousands of dollars to blow up an extremely ordinary novel, and finally got an internal quota. The publishing house was also opened up, and it was printed and distributed smoothly.But because the quality of the content is really not good, the sales hit the street, and the editor himself has money to get it, but "Maple Man" not only lost money, but was also ridiculed by the readers.

Tang Han quickly argued: "I didn't take the order in private, I told Mr. Hao about it."

The former person in charge of "Fengman" was surnamed Hao, who was Huang Jiao's half-master.

Liu Zhiqin asked: "Who asked you to publish this book?"

"This..." Tang Han hesitated.

"The police are here, what are you hiding?" Huang Jiao was anxious first, "Tell me quickly!"

Tang Han: "He, his surname is Liang, when he reported the author's real information to the publishing house, he also reported his name."

Liu Zhiqin pointed out Liang Yijun's photo, "Is that him?"

Tang Han nodded immediately, "Yes, yes, Liang Yijun."

Clues came together suddenly, and Liu Zhiqin asked calmly, "Tell me the details of this publication."

Tang Han looked at Huang Jiao, and said hesitantly: "Two years ago, Liang Yijun found me and gave me a USB flash drive, saying that there was a well-written suspense novel in it. Please help me publish it. no problem."

Tang Han did not know Liang Yijun before. Liang Yijun claimed to have read many books edited by him and liked his style very much.While giving him the USB flash drive, Liang Yijun also gave him 3 yuan.

Tang Han couldn't shirk it, and planned to go back and take a good look at the content of the novel. If it was well written, of course he could strive for publication.

However, after reading the whole article, Tang Han understood that the book was written too ordinary and did not meet the selection requirements.He worked conscientiously in the publishing industry and had never done anything illegal and planned to refuse, but Liang Yijun not only refused to take back the USB flash drive and money, but also added an extra [-].

Tang Han's heart was moved, but he was afraid of accidents, so he found Mr. Hao who was still in charge of "Fengman" at that time.Mr. Hao immediately decided to publish it, but don't make it public, and don't need to hold a topic selection meeting. According to the minimum print volume, Liang Yijun will also pay for the book number.

The book "In the Clouds and Fields" is quite satisfactory, and there are not many places that need to be reviewed and deleted, so it passed the review and was published quickly.The only problem during this period was that the author's identity information was required when applying for a book number, and Liang Yijun said that the book was published for a friend, and he was not the author. Tang Han asked for author information, but Liang Yijun could not provide it.In the end, Tang Han had no choice but to fill in Liang Yijun's identity information.

After the book was released, the result was the same as Tang Han expected, the sales volume was too low.

But Liang Yijun seemed very satisfied, and even made a special trip to treat him to a meal, and asked him to help send two hundred books to his home.

After that, Tang Han never saw Liang Yijun again.

Liu Zhiqin took the last high-speed train back to Nanfu, and Hua Chong drove to pick him up in person.There was also Nanfu criminal policeman in the car, and the two didn't say anything for the time being.Back at the Municipal Bureau, Liu Zhiqin asked the two team members to go upstairs first.

The canteen of the Municipal Bureau is closed, but fortunately, the supper stall outside the Municipal Bureau is in full swing.

Liu Zhiqin ate only one meal a day, so he was already hungry.Hua Chong ordered food for him, and became the one who "watches people eat" very rarely.

"Now several clues have found a lot of things." Hua Chong said: "Liang Yijun probably asked for leave to visit Wang Zhifeng in Shanning County. Wang Zhifeng still has no news. If he is not the murderer, he may be used by the murderer. It's hard to say whether he is dead or alive now."

Liu Zhiqin was stirring the noodles in the bowl while listening.

"Secondly, Cao Fei finally confessed his strange behavior in the villa." Hua Chong continued: "There are still suspicions about him, and he is still under control. But from my point of view, there is a high probability that he did not lie. Liang Yijun You probably didn't notice him at all."

"As for the third item, it's the one you went to check today." Hua Chong picked up a salted peanut, peeled it off, threw one into Liu Zhiqin's bowl, and ate one by himself, "Liang Yijun helped someone publish it." A book, who is negligent and weak? Liang Yijun has a simple interpersonal relationship, where did he get to know such an author, and spend more than 20 yuan to help him publish a book?"

Liu Zhiqin said: "If Fu Xuhuan didn't choose revenge, he would definitely be willing to pay Lin Xiaofei to publish a book."

Hua Chong was stunned.It was a case that Liu Zhiqin solved together with him when he first arrived in Los Angeles, and it was also related to writers and publishing.

"Negative Lanshan has passed away. Liang Yijun sorted out his manuscripts and helped him fulfill his wish to publish?" Hua Chong raised his chin, "The words and sentences of "In the Fields and Clouds" are not like the works of the past ten years. Negligent Lanshan may have passed away long ago. , which is consistent with Liang Yijun's inability to provide his identity information. But how did Liang Yijun know him? What is the relationship between them?"

After a pause, Hua Chong's eyes deepened, "Liang Yijun has been killed now, is it also related to negligence?"

Liu Zhiqin put down his chopsticks, "There is no such person in Liang Yijun's network, but he did do a very important thing for this person. On the way back, I thought about it. For Liang Yijun, this is a critical turning point, he has been stimulated, what can stimulate him?"

After a pause for a few seconds, Liu Zhiqin said, "Could it be his background?"

Hua Chong raised eyebrows, "His father?"

"Yes, his father." Liu Zhiqin said: "Liang Haijun never mentioned Liang Yijun's father. Liang Yijun grew up in an environment without a father. Doesn't he want to know who his father is? Not necessarily."

Hua Chong said: "He learned the identity of his father, found out that his father had passed away, and then found out that his father had an unpublished book, so he sought the opportunity to publish it?"

"The name Neglect Lanshan is a female name when I hear it." Liu Zhiqin said: "But in fact, it is not ruled out that it is a male."
