"Ding--"

At seven o'clock the next morning, the alarm clock rang and just uttered a syllable. One hand reached out from under the quilt and pressed the alarm clock. The noise was stopped in time, and the quilt was lifted quietly and got out of bed. The sleeping Ji Liao woke up.

perfect.

He praised himself in his heart, turned on his phone and looked at his fortune, five stars - with a smooth start, today should be very smooth.

Motivated!

It happened to be Ji Liao's turn to take a break today. Last night Ji Liao told him that he had to go to Xiao Zhiyu for something today. It was not that early, around ten o'clock in the morning. Overwhelming Ji Liao, he agreed casually, but he didn't intend to really wake up people, and got inspiration from it, so he got up and secretly made breakfast for Ji Liao.

He yawned, went to the closet to find his clothes, remembered something, went back to the bed and set Ji Liao's alarm clock for nine o'clock - but before he had time to take two steps outside, Ji Liao seemed to have something Sensing, stretched out from under the quilt and pulled him.

"..." Ji Liao said vaguely, "Don't go..."

He was stunned for two seconds, then turned his head mechanically, and found that Ji Liao seemed to be talking in his sleep, but didn't wake up, so he stretched out his hand to pull him.

In fact, he didn't have any hope for this plan last night—Ji Liao usually wakes up early and sleeps very lightly. Most of the time, Ji Liao washes and changes his clothes. He still sleeps soundly in bed, and has no chance to see Ji Liaogang. The appearance of waking up.

It's not very cute, it's just... billions of cuteness.

"Don't go," he bowed his head and kissed Ji Liao's cheek lightly. After thinking for a while, he had to go, so he sighed and coaxed, "It's okay, why don't you sleep a little longer... came back."

"..." Ji Liao seemed to recognize the voice in a dream for a while, and after a long time, his eyes finally narrowed and his voice was still hoarse, "I see you off."

"No, you can sleep a little longer," Yan Cun said, "I won't go to the bureau today, I'll ask Zhang Jingze to pick me up later, and he and Jiang Huai and I will go directly to Gao Kuiliang's company."

"..." The slit where Ji Liao narrowed his eyes moved slightly, but he didn't reply, probably fell back to sleep.

Yan Cun wanted to laugh a little, took a breath, stretched out his hand to tuck Ji Liao's quilt, walked out of the room lightly, after washing up, sent a message to Zhang Jingze, tried frying a potato pancake and bacon, baked a toast.

The toast was toasted to perfection, the bacon was alright and looked cooked, the top layer of hash browns was alright... except the bottom layer was completely burnt.

He took a small bite to taste it, and it seemed that there was too much salt.

"Crack-"

? ?

... When did the egg shell fall in?Why is there still a piece of salt that hasn't spread out? ?

"..."

Usually Ji Liao is a better cook, and when he is free, he will bake a small cake or something, but after living together, he doesn't give Yan the chance to save the kitchen at all.Now I don't know if it's been too long since I haven't cooked raw food, or the pig raising model has played a role... He seems to have successfully touched the threshold of the dark cooking world.

how so.

After bitterly eating this dark dish, Zhang Jingze was almost at his home street. This time, he chose to turn on the simple mode, and quickly fired an egg.

The frying was okay, quite perfect, although the hand slipped a lot when pouring the soy sauce, but the presentation was a little better.

Wen Lianyi just sent a message, and they haven't recovered anything after a whole night last night, so the three of them today's task is mainly to confirm the identities of the suspects locked yesterday, and to consider whether to ask Gao Kuiliang The surveillance thing.

After getting in the car, Jiang Huai yawned, and first told him about the progress of the investigation at Gao Kuiliang's company yesterday.

"It is reasonable to say that the important documents in the office have been stolen. In recent months, the new employees and the core old employees of the company will be more suspicious - the new employees do not have high credit, and the old employees are more likely to obtain important information and have the opportunity to get close to Gao Kuiliang. Office." Jiang Huai said, "But yesterday we looked at the schedule of the night of the theft, and we also sent someone to ask the front desk of the company on duty that day. The people in the core class had evidence to prove that they were outside with other people that night. Activities, we have also verified that this is indeed the case, these few people are not very suspicious, so we mainly focused on the newcomers."

Gao Kuiliang's company didn't have many employees, and there were no problems with the monitoring. In fact, the theft case was not difficult to investigate, but Gao Kuiliang himself didn't seem to care too much.

"Well," Yan Cun nodded, "Have you asked them?"

"I've asked," Jiang Huai said, "A few of them worked overtime at the company that night, and they all said they didn't know about the theft. We also confirmed the surveillance video, and they were indeed working at their workstations at the time. I haven’t left, so people who were not in the company at that time are actually more suspicious.”

"Hmm..." Yan Cun thought for a while, "Did the surveillance capture the suspect's characteristics?"

Arriving at the gate of Gao Kuiliang's company, Zhang Jingze parked the car on the side of the street, got out of the car with the two of them, turned on his mobile phone and retrieved the monitoring of that night, saying: "The person who sneaked into Gao Kuiliang's office that night covered himself with a mask and a hat. Appearance, wearing a relatively large sweater, but not tall, it can be seen that the figure under the clothes should be relatively petite, and there is a high probability that she should be a woman. I discussed with Team Jiang last night and locked in a person named Jiang Lingling The girl is the new financial manager of Gao Kuiliang's company. She just graduated this year. She was not at the company that night and said she was reading at home alone, but no one can prove that she is really reading at home..."

The three of them were silent, and first showed their work permits to the company's front desk.

The working time of the staff is 08:30 in the morning. They came a little early, so the front desk led them to the living room to sit for a while.

"What's Jiang Linlin's personality like?" Yan Cun asked, "Yesterday there was... eh?"

He squinted his eyes, fixed his eyes on a certain small hanging painting on the wall of the living room, and was stunned for two seconds.

It's a portrait of a crying 'stickman'.

"..."

Damn familiar.

His memory is not bad, but he still opened the search engine and entered the five words 'Su Haiyuan Lianlun' to confirm again—it was exactly the same.

Expected.

Su Haiyuan was involved in several previous cases, so it is not surprising to see his paintings here.

It's just...Yan Peifeng and Gao Kuiliang had cooperated before, and Yan Peifeng, Gao Kuiliang and Su Haiyuan knew each other, so what kind of role did Su Haiyuan play in this?

Maybe this painting is a keepsake or something?

"Well..." Jiang Huai recalled for a while, "I just arrived at Gao Kuiliang's company yesterday morning. When I entered the door, I lowered my head to answer the message on my mobile phone. I accidentally bumped into Jiang Linlin. I apologized to her at the time, but she ignored me, but I didn't pay much attention either."

"Afterwards I asked her whereabouts that night, and she returned to her work station after answering the words like gold. She didn't seem nervous and guilty, so we didn't doubt her too much at the time, thinking that she was just introverted and not good at it. It’s just words. After we went back, Jingze and I reconfirmed that the person was about 1.6 meters tall and had an indescribably familiar walking demeanor, similar to the Jiang Linlin I saw yesterday morning.”

"Yes," Zhang Jingze added, "There are not many female employees in Gao Kuiliang's company, and there are only a few who are around 1.6 meters tall. The others can almost rule out suspicion, only this Jiang Linlin..."

"Hmm..." Yan Cun thoughtfully responded.

It was almost 08:30, and the staff clocked in one after another to arrive at their workstations, but Jiang Linlin hadn't come yet.He turned on the surveillance camera on the day of the theft and looked at it for a while, remembered something, and asked again: "Have you asked other employees about their impression of Jiang Linlin?"

"I have asked," Jiang Huai replied, "but most people are not familiar with Jiang Linlin, only her boss is a little familiar with her."

"What?" Yan Cun asked.

"Her boss said that she has a withdrawn and cold personality," Jiang Huai said, "She is taciturn and doesn't like to talk, but she seems to have a high IQ and a strong learning ability."

"?" Yan Cun was stunned, "..."

withdrawn?Taciturn and not talkative?High learning capibility?

Damn it sounds familiar.

There was a sudden guess in his heart, he opened his mouth, and asked straight from the bottom of his heart: "Did she...have any trauma in her childhood?"

"???" Jiang Huai was startled, "...ah? How would I know?"

"..." Yan Cun took a deep breath, with complicated emotions, and thought for a while, "Maybe... do you have her file? Why don't you show me first?"

"The time is too short, I haven't had time to watch it yet..." After so many years of friends + colleagues, the two have a good understanding, Jiang Huai seems to have sensed something is wrong, and asked tentatively, "What's wrong? Is there any problem with her? I'll let her Someone brought you a file? But it's almost time for her to come, why don't you go back and read after you finish asking?"

"Hmm..." Yan Cun hesitated for a while, "Why don't you stop asking? Go back to the Municipal Bureau? Read her file before deciding on the next step?"

The two looked at each other silently for a few seconds, and when the channels were connected, Jiang Huai nodded and said "OK" without asking any more questions.

Back at the Municipal Bureau, the technicians retrieved Jiang Linlin's file very efficiently. As expected, the eight characters of 'Qinjiang City Ping An Welfare Institute' appeared in the file.

Jiang Huai suddenly understood something.

The two of them got together to study Jiang Linlin's files for a while, and asked Zhang Jingze to call the director of the orphanage to inquire about the situation.Half an hour later, Zhang Jingze hung up the phone and returned to the office, looking a little melancholy.

He had also heard Xiao Zhiyu and the others talk about the Qinjiang City Ping An Welfare Institute before, and if he couldn't get his head around, he now understood everything.

"Jiang Linlin was abandoned in front of the Qinjiang City Ping'an Welfare Institute when she was five years old. When she was found, her body was covered in bruises and one eye was half-blind, most likely due to the previous beating," Zhang Jingze asked in a complicated mood. I told them about the situation, "Because the parents and other guardians could not be identified, they were taken in and raised by the Ping'an Welfare Institute until they became adults. Before the age of ten, they were withdrawn and introverted, relatively autistic, and had abused small animals. Talking to people, but showing extraordinary talent in thinking logic, was favored by 'F', the main sponsor of the orphanage, who believed that she had the value of training, and has been supporting her to live and go to school since she was 13 years old. "

Chapter 112 Through the Rain · 28 Negotiations You have to call that kid named Ji, I have nothing to say to you.

Due to her withdrawn personality and gloomy temperament, Jiang Linlin experienced school violence for a period of time in middle school, and was isolated and disgusted by other students, but she never suffered any physical harm.She has an extremely irritable personality, and habitually uses violence to control violence. She took the initiative to fight back and injured several classmates, almost causing others to be disabled. personnel positions.

She has committed crimes before, is a little autistic, and is not good at speaking. In addition to the characteristics of "childhood trauma" and "behavior of cruelty to small animals" that Zhang Jingze received from the director of the orphanage just now, this Jiang Linlin has a high probability He is one of those children supported by Fang Yushan.

Gao Kuiliang probably wanted them to know this.

As for what Xiao Zhiyu said earlier about 'personality becoming more and more dangerous' and 'walking on the path of crime'...they have no way of knowing.

"Hmm..." Yan put down the file in his hand, "This Jiang Linlin is useless, I guess I can't ask anything."

Although he knew that Fang Yushan funded children with personality defects before, but now it is actually specific to a certain person in real life, and this person's past experience is slightly similar to his, it is still a bit difficult for him to accept.

His eyes dimmed, his mind was in a state of confusion, and after thinking about it, he hinted at Jiang Huai as if he had made up his mind: "I'll use the monitoring that was restored yesterday to interrogate Gao Kuiliang later, you find a way to find out the identity of this sponsor 'F' The real identity and the files of the children he sponsored, to see if they have any criminal or illegal records before, or ask the director of the orphanage if he knows why this 'F' sponsored them, no matter whether the clues are useful or not come down."

First of all, the theft of documents was not done by Fang Yushan himself. There is nothing inherently wrong with him funding Jiang Linlin.

Because of this, Fang Yushan estimated that he was not afraid at all from the beginning to the end. If it was really because of this that Fang Yushan was invited to the bureau, it would be a waste of time and energy for each other if he could not come up with a crime.

Yesterday, Ji Liao really made sure that Gao Kuiliang asked them to arrest this criminal suspect. If they caught it so easily, this person might not be able to provide any useful clues.It's possible that Gao Kuiliang himself was aware of this, and he didn't intend to use La Fang's language to go downhill, but just took this opportunity to ridicule the inaction of several of their insiders.

Anxiety index skyrocketed.

No matter how many hints he made in his heart, he still couldn't believe that the adoptive father who had lived with him for many years actually had so many secrets, so he couldn't maintain his sanity until he confronted him face to face.

Hearing this, Jiang Huai more or less understood something, responded, and hurriedly pulled a few people to the Qinjiang City Ping An Welfare Institute - when He Jiu told them about the orphanage, he also had doubts about going here , It's just that the arson case was at the top of the pile, and they didn't think too deeply about it. Now it seems that there are probably some clues related to the case in this orphanage.

The fog seems to be gradually dissipating, and the wind and rain are about to come.

After negotiating with other departments, they met Gao Kuiliang again in the interrogation room of the Municipal Bureau at eleven o'clock in the morning.

After not seeing him for a few days, Gao Kuiliang seemed to be in poor spirits, coughing more frequently, and his voice was hoarse, but the emotion in his eyes was inexplicably excited and crazy, and he sat on a chair obediently waiting for the interrogators to enter the room without saying a word.

There is a sense of hopelessness.

"?" Yan Cun squinted his eyes, observed Gao Kuiliang outside the one-way glass for a while, and said, "Jingze, send a message to He Jiu and ask her what's wrong with Gao Kuiliang's body? Cough sharp?"

"Oh... good!" Zhang Jingze responded.

After waiting for almost 3 minutes, before He Jiu could reply, he asked Zhang Jingze to record the testimony outside the one-way glass, opened the door first and entered the interrogation room, put the phone on the table in front of Gao Kuiliang, and went straight to the topic to play Wen Lian The surveillance video recovered by Yi.

Gao Kuiliang's breathing was a little messy, and he lowered his eyes to stare at Liang Jiawen who left with him in the video for a while, without saying a word.

After the video was played, Yan Cun put away his phone and asked in a cold voice, "What else can I say? Explain? Didn't it mean that I haven't seen Liang Jiawen since then?"

Gao Kuiliang seemed to have expected it, his eyes kept rolling, and just as he uttered a syllable, he coughed uncontrollably for a long time: "No...cough, cough! Cough, cough, cough! Didn't you want... to investigate the theft for me Is something wrong?"

"You're not in good health?" Yan Cun suddenly had a guess in his heart, and asked someone to pour a glass of water for Gao Kuiliang, and said first, "What's wrong? Did you go to the hospital for a check-up? I want someone to bring you some medicine." Are you coming?"

"Cough...cough cough..." Gao Kuiliang reached out to take the water glass, took out an unlabeled medicine bottle from his pocket, and put a few pills into his stomach, "cough...no...don't bother you..."

He slowed down for a while, suppressed his cough, and laughed while coughing: "What? Where did you check it... Cough... Did you forget? Still have a result and dare not say it?

"..." Yan Cun quickly returned to the ice-cold mode, "Jiang Linlin, Ping An Welfare Institute, is it alright? How dare you make us go to war with this trivial matter? ——I'm asking you about the prison/imprisonment of Liang Jiawen, I'm asking you Why did you appear there, ask and answer questions, don’t change the subject.”

"Like I said, I didn't kill Liang Jiawen." Gao Kuiliang finally stopped coughing, and took a moment to relax, "I've hinted so clearly, why should I tell you who killed Liang Jiawen? Why don't you ask your friend first?" Good foster father..."

"I asked you why you appeared there at that time, don't mention irrelevant things."

"So what if I've seen him, what does that mean?" Gao Kuiliang sneered, "How can this be called an 'irrelevant matter'? Isn't it our duty as ordinary citizens to provide clues to the police? Is your police so efficient? Your adoptive father..."

"I'm asking you about your imprisonment!"

With so many things on his body, Yan Cun really didn't have the patience to deal with Gao Kuiliang. He slapped the table and stood up, grabbed Gao Kuiliang's collar and shouted: "Don't be cunning, I asked you what to say, we have not verified the clues It’s about our police, it’s nothing to do with you. I asked you why there are conflicts in your testimony? Why did it appear there?! Why did Liang Jiawen go with you! Did you imprison him..."

"I didn't!" Gao Kuiliang has been in a high position for many years, and he is extremely concerned about his own authority. He is rarely yelled at by someone grabbing his collar and covering his face. He was angry for a while, "I admit that I did see him that day! I did go to the Express Hotel, as for the prison/imprisonment you mentioned, I have never done it! You have no evidence and no reason to say that I killed him! Even if I suspect you are serious, you have not said that someone was raped. If you are not able to catch the real murderer Don't make false accusations... Cough! Cough cough cough!"

Gao Kuiliang coughed several times as if he couldn't breathe after finishing such a series of conversations in one breath. It seemed that due to physical reasons, Gao Kuiliang couldn't control his emotions.

Yan Cun thought for a while, but didn't answer. He loosened his collar and sat back in the seat just now, giving Gao Kuiliang time to relax.

The air suddenly fell silent.

There was a silent confrontation in the interrogation room for a while, Zhang Jingze's cell phone sounded a 'ding' at the same time outside the one-way glass, and Zhang Jingze's voice sounded from the communicator: "Then...then what...Captain Yan...Captain He replied to the message, Gao Kuiliang's body is indeed It’s not very good, she observed it, it’s probably a lung problem, Gao Kuiliang himself seems to know what’s wrong with his body, he refused to say, there is no record in the medical records.”

Yan Cun tapped the communicator with his fingertips, and the irritable mood just disappeared. After waiting for a while, he asked Gao Kuiliang again: "So what happened after he left with you that day?"

"Cough...cough cough..." Gao Kuiliang picked up the water glass, sent a few more pills in, and said in a hoarse voice, "It's the same as you guessed before, he was working under me and secretly took pictures of me meeting people. The photo, I got the news, I asked him to blame him, what's the problem?!"

"..." Yan Cun snorted, wondering if Gao Kuiliang was too old to understand human speech, "Your skill in changing the subject is still as bad as ever."

Gao Kuiliang lowered his head to drink water.

"I asked, what happened after he left with you that day?" Yan Cun said, "Don't make me repeat it, I'm impatient."

"Nothing happened," Gao Kuiliang said. "He didn't admit it, and he didn't even bring his cell phone. Otherwise, I would let you find this photo? Otherwise, wouldn't I know that he hid his cell phone under the bed?"

Stopped coughing, he raised his hand and patted his chest, and said calmly: "What to check, don't ask if it's not your department's business, even if you have evidence to prove that 'they' and I have Contact, you have no reason to accuse me of imprisoning Liang Jiawen, his death has nothing to do with me."

"...Do you really want me to ask again? Brother Gao?" Yan Cun exhausted his patience, "I asked him, follow, you, go, after, hair, life, what, what? Do you understand?"

"..." Gao Kuiliang had nothing to say.

"If you can't say it, you can't say it. What kind of Tai Chi?" Yan Cun took a deep breath, prepared enough mentally, and finished speaking in one breath, "Why, don't you just want us to guide us to Cha Fangyu Mountain? Okay, We checked, and the Ping An Welfare Institute is indeed related to him. Jiang Linlin is one of the children he sponsored before. Fang Yushan probably ordered the theft of your company documents... So you mean he killed Liang Jiawen? What about the evidence? What should you do next? Would you like to give instructions? Or should you ask him to come over and confront you?"

Gao Kuiliang: "..."

"Even if they are related, where should we start to investigate such an irrelevant matter? Why don't you tell me? Can you remind me?"

Gao Kuiliang was stunned for a while, a little hesitant, as if he didn't expect him to be so direct, and he didn't dare to speak for a while,

"Don't pretend to be dumb," Yan Cun said, "I wanted to ask Yan Peifeng before, how come you are everywhere, you have been doing such a big thing quietly for so many years and no one has reported you, and your background is so deep? Now How did you end up in such an end? Coughing like this and not going to cure it? Still wanting to instruct Wang Yuan to kill Yan Peifeng? Put more thought into it, and now it may be possible to save if you actively treat it."

"I……"

"We're tired too, don't play charades, let's make it clear, okay?" Yan Cun didn't give him a chance to speak, and spit out sentences like a machine gun, "Is there someone else behind? Is there anything we don't know about?" Son? Say whatever you want."

"..." Gao Kuiliang asked him back, "Aren't you going to investigate the fire case of your parents? Do you trust Fang Yushan that much?"

"Isn't there a way for me? Brother Gao," Yan Cun said, "you can show me the way, and I'll figure it out right away... Or, in fact, you know in your heart that this thing can't involve him at all? So you're awkward and don't know whether you should say it or not? Or how will this matter affect you after it's revealed?"

"no……"

"Master Gao, wake up, everyone is tired," Yan Cun's tone was as cold as ice, "you have been involved in every case recently, don't you understand? Do you really think there is any turning point for this matter? Is it?"

"..." Gao Kuiliang laughed with great interest, "Should people talk? Are you negotiating with me?"

He folded his hands in front of him, stared at him for a while, and said suddenly: "Just you? You have to call that kid named Ji to negotiate. I have nothing to say to you."
