fool.

Xiao Man took a sip of strong tea, folded back the screen of the laptop on his lap, looked at Xiao Jing and Xing Tianxiang in the video camera, and said, "Then let me talk first?"

Yin Miaozai, who was sitting on the single bed with his back against him, muttered: "Where did Zhao You go again? Why hasn't he returned to the hotel after this o'clock?" She tugged at Xiaoman's clothes and sat on the ground, squeezing Beside him, he said, "He won't be dragged to interrogation again, right?"

Xing Tianxiang lifted his glasses on the bridge of his nose, and said, "It's unlikely. Although the Yancheng police suspected Zhao You, they really couldn't find anything about Zhao You. They should have realized it, and they will still concentrate their main force on Zhou Si. Chang." He opened a notebook and analyzed it as he read it: "Zhou Sichang surrendered himself to the Public Security Bureau on the 11th, and it is now the night of the 15th. Generally speaking, after the police arrest someone, they have 3 days to sort out the files. Collect evidence and submit an application for approving the arrest to the procuratorate. If the case is complicated, you can apply to the superior for an extra day. When we monitored Zhao You’s cell phone that day, I heard from the Yancheng police that their director approved it for a day. Delay, that is to say..."

Xiao Jing grabbed the conversation: "3 plus 1, 11 plus 4, that's today! Hey, is this calculated according to the 24-hour system or how? If Zhou Sichang surrendered during the day on the 11th, the police are still Since Yan Mingming’s body was not found, does it mean that he must be released? Or is it a particularly complicated one, and can it be postponed after the postponement?”

Xing Tianxiang shook his head, took out his mobile phone, lowered his head and swipe for a while, and said: "I inquired about this case with a few reporters who run the legal system in Yancheng this afternoon. The police are watching the media closely. They all joked with me, let me wait for a new police report on the 16th tomorrow."

At this point, Xing Tianxiang raised his eyes and looked at Xiaoman meaningfully. Xiaoman lit a cigarette and took a puff silently. He understood Xing Tianxiang's voice-over and said, "If the Yancheng police don't have anything new They found that there was nothing particularly critical. They definitely couldn't buckle Zhou Sichang to the 16th, and Yancheng was always under the pressure of public opinion about the case of killing his wife and family after he surrendered not long ago. Considering the impact on the stock price, I have been cleaning up relevant news and information on the Internet. I have checked several social platforms. There is some attention to this matter on the Internet, but after leaving Yancheng, no one mentions it. The police are going to let Zhou Sichang go, and they will definitely not say anything, and they will issue a new police report, after all, the major incidents will be reduced to minor ones, after all."

Yin Miaozai clapped her palms and guessed, "Did you find Yan Mingming's body? Maybe Zhao You helped find it!"

Xiao Jing blew his whistle, put his hands behind his head, proudly: "We still have to rely on our police dogs at critical moments!"

Yin Miaozai stared at Xiaoman closely, and tugged at his sleeve: "Didn't you go to the movies tonight? Did you see Zhao You in the theater? Did you talk to him? Did he tell you anything?"

Xiao Man scratched his eyebrows, swept across the crowd, and said: "Let's have a meeting first, let's talk about your discoveries, I'll come first." He cleared his throat, and said: "I haven't seen Zhao You, But after exchanging information with him, we agreed on three things."

Xiao Jing hurriedly interjected, his eyes became big and small: "Wait a minute, you didn't see it, how did you exchange messages? You don't send WeChat messages, right? You have your own secret language for customs clearance? Then why do you still go to the theater?" ?”

Yin Miaozai had a whimsical idea: "Could it be a flying pigeon... Uh, a paper airplane to pass a letter? Or something like a locker?"

Xing Tianxiang waved his hand and said, "Xiao Man, go ahead and talk about yourself."

Xiao Jing was not happy anymore, and said to Xing Tianxiang: "No, Lao Xing, he and Zhao You haven't met, so how can we guarantee that the person exchanging information with him is Zhao You? Maybe it's the policeman from Yancheng, that Hang Fengnian, I don’t think he’s worse than Zhao You, he’s also very cunning and cunning, didn’t he know Zhao You’s mobile phone password was 66666 the other day, and then asked someone to check if he changed his password recently, deleted chat records, etc. He probably has as many minds as Zhao You. If he sees through the secret words between Zhao You and Xiaoman, and the contact information between them...then he will probably use his tricks to mislead Xiaoman, and what will happen later? You caught the turtle in the urn and caught us all. You are an old fritter who lied to the police. You must be fine, so you just say that you have committed a reporter's old problem. How can I go out to find a job if I get on the file in the future? Teacher Yin If she is caught by the police, she will enter the palace for the second time."

Yin Miaozai stared: "What the second time entering the palace! When did I enter the palace??"

"A reporter from Legal Daily?"

Yin Miaozai looked at Xiaojing and Xing Tianxiang back and forth angrily and amusedly: "The deepening of your father-son relationship is based on exchanging other people's gossip, right?"

"Who has deepened his relationship with him? We just exchange gossip."

"Xiao Man, you continue to talk, you say..."

"No, what's the point of exchanging my gossip if you have nothing to do?"

Xiao Man said: "Xiao Jing's words are very reasonable, but I can feel that the person I exchanged information with is Zhao You."

Xiaojing rolled his eyes, and Yin Miaozai raised his hand and said, "I'm standing on Xiaojing's side this time. I feel that the water here is very deep at the Yancheng Public Security Bureau. You all heard it that day, what kind of secretary, what kind of bureau chief? What about the captain of the economic investigation, like two factions."

Xing Tianxiang nodded and agreed: "Xiao Yin is very sharp. According to the news I got today, the current secretary of the Yancheng Public Security Bureau took office five years ago, and the faction with whom he has a good relationship is almost all from the Northeast. Although their group is called the Siberian Tigers, the local ones are the Big Goose Gang, all of whom are alumni who graduated from the Hai Provincial Police Academy. I really want to clean up the local forces."

Xiaoman raised his eyes, he saw his two solemn gazes on the screen, smoked a cigarette, and said in a deep voice: "It seems that Zhou Sichang's matter will become a fuse no matter what the outcome is."

Xiaojing spread his hands: "Okay, let's talk about Cao Lv. Lao Xing may sell the copyright for publishing a book and make a film and television adaptation. We'll finish the investigation of this case, let alone sell the copyright. Lao Xing, this matter You can't write a book, can you?"

Yin Miaozai asked: "Someone wants to adapt Cao Lv's story?"

Xing Tianxiang said: "There are indeed people in the film and television industry who have this intention, but I don't think it's suitable."

Xiaojing said in a strange way: "The price given by others is inappropriate, right? You tell my mother not to look at villa real estate all day long, I just look at apartment houses."

Xiao Man said: "The consensus reached by Zhao You and I also includes the point that Mr. Xing just mentioned, this case is related to the members of the Ge family." Who was the person I was exchanging information with, and we also reached two other points of consensus, first, Yan Mingming may not be dead, and second, to investigate the taxi that took Yan Mingming away."

Yin Miaozai straightened his expression, and then continued: "Xiaoman and I went to that Provence restaurant at noon today. There is an internet celebrity spot in front of it. According to our field investigation, at noon, there is too much food there. If there is a traffic jam, the taxis in Yancheng will automatically avoid that route. Even if you use the software to call a taxi in the store, there is no taxi willing to pick up the business. Moreover, August is the peak tourist season, and many taxis are chartered to take customers. The business of travel..."

"Then it's possible that the tourist called a car to go to the Internet celebrity attraction you mentioned, but Yan Mingming happened to stop him."

Xiaoman said: "I can't rule out the possibility of what Xiaojing said. The main reason is that the driver of that taxi is likely to be the last person who saw Yan Mingming. This point should be paid attention to."

Yin Miaozai agreed: "Indeed, I checked. There are two taxi companies in Yancheng. Tomorrow, I will check with a few drivers and see if I can find the driver that day." She looked at Xiaoman, frowning He said, "You said Yan Mingming might not be dead..."

Xiao Man said: "How much do you remember the conversation between Zhao You and Zhou Sichang that day?"

Xiao Jing said: "I recorded it, should I broadcast it? Or convert it into text and send it to you, so that you can trace it at any time?" He began to tap on the keyboard.

Xiaoman said: "When I listened to it that day, I found out that Zhou Sichang asked Zhao You to find Yan Mingming."

Yin Miaozai patted her thigh: "That's right! As I remember, they never talked about looking for the corpse! They said about looking for Yan Mingming!"

Xiaoman said: "Zhao You should also be aware of the difference here, so when he continued the conversation with Zhou Sichang, he also said to find Yan Mingming, and Zhou Sichang also expressed his agreement to this, probably to test him. mean."

Yin Miaozai put his hands in the air, meditated for a while, and said, "Wait a minute, why did Zhou Sichang turn himself in, saying that he killed someone? Was Yan Mingming kidnapped or did he leave Yancheng? Zhou Sichang thought Let the police help him find Yan Mingming? Or use the power of the police to force Yan Mingming to show up? No, no, he knows that Yan Mingming is still alive, or he is sure that Yan Mingming is still alive, so he has enough confidence to surrender himself. He said that he killed someone, because he knew that the police would never find Yan Mingming's body. Without a body, there would be no case, and without a case, he would be released. But... it still came back to the question, what was his motive? ? What purpose do you want to use public opinion and social attention? He didn't expect the police and Xi Meihua to block the information, right?"

Xiao Jing suddenly said: "Is the pennant matter settled?"

"The pennant?" Yin Miaozai looked at him, "You mean the pennant incident at Zhao You University?"

"It's not a secret code, is it?"

Xiaoman shook his head: "Yan Boyuan and I confirmed that there is indeed such a thing."

Xing Tianxiang said at this time: "Then let me tell you about my discovery?"

Everyone nodded.Xing Tianxiang then said: "Zhou Sichang, a widow, has no relatives or reasons in Yancheng, his hometown is Baixue Village, Jilin, his parents left early, and he is a good student. With the support of the village committee, he went to Beijing to study at a university. It's psychology, and my graduation thesis is about criminal psychology. After graduation, I took the police examination and was commended in the first month of work. It can be said that I have repeatedly solved strange cases. A year later, I fell from a height while on the job. , broke his right leg, suffered serious sequelae, and walked with obvious lameness. He did population registration at the police station, took care of files, and usually helped his colleagues analyze cases. People in the police station said he was their He is a great detective who never goes out. He is still very motivated. He is self-study while going to work. Later, he was admitted to the People’s Public Security University for a master’s degree in litigation law, with a focus on investigative studies. He worked as a lecturer at the Central Criminal Police School, retired in 2013, and came to Yancheng for retirement, and he met Yan Mingming in the first year in Yancheng."

Speaking of this, Xing Tianxiang looked at Xiaoman: "I asked that Yuan Xiaocheng. In 2013, he worked as the security director of Ximeihua Resort in Yancheng. At that time, Yan Mingming happened to bring people from the headquarters to the resort. During the study meeting, I found him on purpose, introduced Zhou Sichang to him, and said that this was a newly hired security consultant. He felt very strange. First, their resort did not plan to recruit any security consultant at all. Second, the recruitment matter It is usually done by personnel, how could it alarm the CEO? Later he found out that Yan Mingming led a team from the headquarters to the lobby to inspect and study that day. After chatting, Zhou Sichang became a security consultant, and soon replaced him as a security director. Later, at the end of 13, Zhou Sichang stopped going to work.

"Yuan Xiaocheng found out that he and Yan Mingming were married after having dinner with his former colleagues. Yan Mingming also told the company not to publicize this matter. When the media make irresponsible remarks, they will find a reason to make people pack up and leave, so there is no news about her marriage. Yuan Xiaocheng signed a non-disclosure agreement with Xi Meihua when he left, saying that he could tell me That's all.

"However, I got here a copy published in December 2014, Ximeihua's internal publication "Beauty Unlimited", which included Yan Mingming's New Year's message to employees. In a paragraph, she rarely mentioned her own private life."

Xing Tianxiang held up a magazine, turned to a page, bowed his head and read: "Waiting may be the best sacrifice. Since I was a child, I don't quite understand the definition of happiness, and I don't think happiness is necessary. Yes, the sense of accomplishment and honor is more important to me, but recently, more than once, I feel that I am living a very happy life.”

Xiao Jing leaned over to read the magazine, and asked Xing Tianxiang, "Then what happened to her father's disappearance?"

Xing Tianxiang said: "I called the police station in her hometown to ask about it. Her hometown is Sanjiaoyang Village, Yuxian County, Jiangsu Province. The police station didn't say she was missing, but said that her father Yan Yanan went to Beijing to work 20 years ago. , I didn’t go home, so I hung up the phone.”

Xiaoman said: "Maybe I have to trouble Mr. Xing to go to Jiangsu."

Xing Tianxiang said: "That's no problem, you must ask yourself about this matter."

Xiao Jing snorted, and said, "He can't sit still if you ask him to write a book, the train tickets are already bought!"

Yin Miaozai said: "And that little nanny Tai Lili, what's going on with her and Zhou Sichang?"

Xing Tianxiang said: "I went to Tai Lili's agency, Beautiful Life Cleaning Company. They are very confidential and sensitive. As soon as I asked about Tai Lili, they issued an order to evict her."

Xiao Man arched Yin Miaozai: "Miss Wang, I think you have to handle this matter."

Yin Miaozai twisted her waist, and said with a big wave: "What Miss Wang, is it Agustina?"

"What na?" Xiao Jing was puzzled.

Xing Tianxiang also blinked his eyes in doubt, and Xiaoman explained: "Anyway, we two now have new identities. She is of Chinese descent, and she came back to China to file a divorce lawsuit. I am her brother, here to find myself."

Xiao Jing thought for a while, then geared up: "Then I want to make you a fake ig, a fake Facebook account, a fake diploma, and a fake certificate?"

Xing Tianxiang coughed, frowned, and said, "Keep your voice down..." He said, "Why do you give false certificates to people? Do you know someone?"

Xiaojing ignored him, shared his screen, and opened a word document: "Ao Gu, how did you spell it?"

"A-g-u-s-t-i-n-a." Yin Miaozai spelled it out for him, Xiao Jing typed out the string of English and continued to type letters at the end: "Wang, right?"

"No, no, you spell wong, we are from Hong Kong."

"Damn, the background story is all made up? The rich three generations?"

"Hard money!"

Xiao Jing suddenly rubbed his stomach: "I think Zhao You is probably eating supper outside now!"

Yin Miaozai nodded, "What kind of seafood boat porridge, what kind of fried crab in a typhoon shelter, what kind of seafood stir-fried emperor, hot pepper sausage!" She turned around and lay down on the bed, "We are worried about his case here, He must be gorging on Haisai happily as if nothing happened!"

Xiao Man laughed and said, "You can order room service, I see a lot of cooking here too."

"Are you entertaining?"

Xiao Man turned to Xiao Jing, "Did you find anything?"

Yin Miaozai patted the bed sheet: "You said we came all the way to avenge Zhao You's teacher, should Zhao You pay us? I put off a lot of cat hunting."

"Are you still looking for a cat?" Xing Tianxiang got up and walked out of the camera. After a while, he appeared again with two boxes of instant noodles.

"Finding cats is the second most profitable business of our detective agency." Yin Miaozai said.

"I'm going, you guys are really making money, I thought it was taking your money." Xiaojing opened a pdf file on the shared screen, Yin Miaozai looked at him hurriedly and said, "Yeah, are you going to Did you check that training class, did you find anything?"

Xiao Jing rubbed her hands together, and said, "That's it. From their website, even though it is set up on a foreign server, and although the security is very tight, it took me less than an hour to figure out how to pay for this website every month. Qian's credit card information." He said: "Then what is the most profitable business of your detective agency? Catching rape?"

Yin Miaozai said: "Give me a Chinese assignment."

Xiao Jing burst out laughing, and Xiaoman looked at the pdf file: "This is a credit card statement? The address is in the Cayman Islands, and the cardholder is William.S.Wang."

Yin Miaozai choked on the saliva, coughed and said, "Huh? Another 'king'??"

Xiao Jing glanced out of the camera: "Zhao You is back."

"Ah? How do you know?" Yin Miaozai looked hard at the place where the camera couldn't capture, "You still have a computer?"

"I'm not going to tamper with the hotel check-in records. After the police investigate, Lao Xing and I do come to room 603 every year, so we synchronized with the hotel's surveillance cameras by the way." Xiao Jing asked them, "You want to see ?"
