Criminal evidence

Shen Changyan walked so fast that it was too late for Lu Qinghe to reach out and stop him.

Originally, he didn't really want to care about anything, but he just said a few more words, but he never expected that the other party's reaction would be so decisive, and he almost went to solve it without hesitation.

Being able to be taken seriously by others, Lu Qinghe naturally felt a little more proud. Since he was a child, he has been more possessive of Shen Changyan than others. Even if he is just a friend, he must be Shen Changyan's best friend.

The sudden kiss in the corridor of the Municipal Bureau that day seemed to be more confusing than shock, but what is clear is that Lu Qinghe didn't hate it.

He himself felt very strange that such a subtle emotion would arise, because he couldn't figure it out, so he seriously examined the relationship between the two people.

After Shen Changyan went upstairs, he came down quickly, and before he entered, Zhang An stopped him at the door.

"Team Shen, we have found some new progress about the undercover reporter at the Ganges Steel Plant."

"Really? Show me."

He stretched out his hand to take the documents and materials that the other party handed over to him, and the calmness on his face was mixed with some subtle surprises.

"By the way, there is also the application report you just asked me to hand over to the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors also approved it, saying that they can contact the fire department to assist us in handling the case together."

"okay."

Shen Changyan led Zhang An all the way to his desk and sat down.

It was almost noon, and the warm sunlight outside the window gradually shifted upwards, and through the huge branch of the sycamore tree, it fell full of stars and mottled on Shen Changyan's body.

Lu Qinghe had already returned to his seat. He was lying on his desk and scribbling with his hand, and then turned his head to take a sneak look at Shen Changyan in a state of uneasiness.

"This part of the information comes from the editor-in-chief of the news agency where the undercover reporter works. Even the Public Security Bureau has not filed the news. It is said that there was a murder case in the Ganges Steel Plant a few years ago. The deceased was a disabled person with mental retardation. The personage said at the time that the accident was due to fatigue at work, and after paying a sum of pension to the child’s grandfather, the matter would be considered over.”

Shen Changyan asked, "Have you reported the crime?"

Zhang An replied, "I reported the case, but there was no follow-up. The two parties should have settled it privately."

Shen Changyan nodded after listening, and he said, "Continue."

Zhang An pursed his lips, "It's private, I rushed to cremate and bury him that day, the old man paid 800 yuan for compensation, originally we planned to inquire about the specific reasons for the incident, but unexpectedly After searching all the way, I found that less than half a year after the death of the grandson, the old man followed him."

"He/Kill?"

"The investigation turned out to be an accident. It is said that he died of carbon monoxide poisoning because he did not open the window when he burned charcoal for heating at home."

"When Wancheng enters winter, every household has to burn charcoal. This old man has no accidents every year, but why did he forget to open the window that year?"

"There were quite a lot of doubtful points in this case back then, but I don't know why it was closed hastily in the end, including the grandson of the old man who was mentally handicapped and then died for no reason. died."

Shen Changyan's eyes undoubtedly fell on this page of paper. The words in black and white background were constantly conveying some important information to him, including "death", "disappearance" and "accident", etc. The overlapping content of several cases came into his sight.

"Have you mentioned before that the reason why this undercover reporter decided to go to the Ganges Steel Plant at risk is because he intends to investigate whether they have hired black workers like this?"

"That's right." Zhang An replied, "And according to the reply from the editor-in-chief of the reporter's news agency, this case was the main reason why he finally decided to go to the Ganges Steel Plant."

Compared with the previous years, the law and order in Wancheng City has improved significantly, but the disappearance cases still occur frequently, but it has not been resolved until now.

Among them, children and women are the most prominent missing victims, and Shen Changyan has not had much contact with this part of the disabled.

I was thinking about this matter in my mind, and I don't know why I suddenly remembered Xiaoyue'er's arm that was cut off maliciously.

Shen Changyan was startled, he quickly raised his head and asked, "Since the child ran away by himself, and not just anyone can enter this Ganges Steel Factory, how did the old man find out that his grandson died in the factory?"

Zhang An was taken aback by this reaction, but quickly calmed down and replied, "After the child disappeared, the old man looked for him everywhere, and later found his whereabouts around the Ganghe Steel Factory. According to the memories of the surrounding shops and residents, it is said that The child stayed near this steel factory for nearly half a month, during which time he lived by picking up garbage and eating leftovers thrown away by others. Suddenly one day he saw a well-dressed man talk to him, Follow this child and completely disappear from everyone's sight."

"When it was found, the person was already dead?"

Zhang An was a little hesitant. He looked around and then lowered his voice and said to Shen Changyan, "Captain Shen, it's actually a bit strange to say this."

Shen Changyan probably understood the meaning of his reaction, so he slowed down and said, "I'm not surprised why I asked you?"

Zhang An replied, "To be honest, the case-closed materials kept by the police are not of any reference. On the contrary, when we went back on this road, based on the memories of shops and residents near the steel factory, we got some and Previously recorded completely different information."

Shen Changyan looked solemn. He pointed his fingers on the table, and after thinking for a while, he raised his head and called out, "Ma Yue, Chen Hao, Lu Qinghe, all three of you come here."

Just by hearing this tone, you can tell that something difficult has happened again.

Lu Qinghe didn't dare to joke about work, so he quickly ran to Shen Changyan's side with the chair in his arms.

Ma Yue and Chen Hao quickly followed, and everyone surrounded Shen Changyan with their heads buried in a circle.

Seeing that everyone was present, Zhang An briefly explained the cause of the incident and then focused on expressing the important doubts of the case.

"According to the closed case materials recorded by the police, the statement in the document is that after the deceased left home, he went to the Ganges Steel Plant to join the job. Due to the wrong work arrangement and extreme fatigue, an accident happened. Then the factory compensated the family members financially, but because the family members could not bear the pain of bereavement, they had an accident while burning charcoal and died of poisoning."

Shen Changyan reminded, "There are three doubtful points in this record of less than [-] words. First, how can a child who is mentally handicapped and needs to be taken care of by his grandfather all year round to live normally after running away from home?" Entering the Ganghe Steel Plant, secondly, accidents occurred due to mistakes in work arrangements and extreme fatigue. What kind of mistakes are the mistakes here? What kind of accidents are accidents? Third, the temperature in Wancheng will reach below zero every winter. Almost every household relies on burning charcoal for daily heating. When Zhang An said just now, I paid special attention to the interval between the occurrence of the two cases. One occurred in August and the other occurred in January of the following year. Why did Pain take such a move that is tantamount to suicide after half a year?"

After listening, Zhang An added, "According to the feedback from the neighbors around, there is actually no blood relationship between the two deceased. The disabled child was picked up from the trash can by the old man when he was young, although he has been taken care of as his own child. But I personally think that the idea that he committed suicide due to the unbearable pain of bereavement is not very valid."

Shen Changyan thought for a while and asked again, "What reason did the police use to enter the Ganges Steel Plant?"

Zhang An said, "There is no such record in the information we got here, but I think even if it is just to say to find someone, there is no reason for Ganghe Steel to block the door and prevent us from entering. After all, the police have The ID card is standing at your door, you don’t want to let me in and tell people that I have something tricky here, so hurry up and check me.”

The same sentence has different understandings and reactions when it enters the ears of different people.

After Shen Changyan asked, Zhang An answered his question in a regular manner, but Lu Qinghe's face showed a touch of short-sighted disbelief.

He suddenly raised his head and asked, "Could it be that you plan to use the same method to enter a steel factory under the pretext of finding someone?"

Shen Changyan didn't say a word, his non-denial was basically equal to acquiescence.

Seeing this, Ma Yue quickly said, "But Team Shen, hasn't Director Dong already promised us to let the advanced firefighting factory go to explore the way?"

Shen Changyan said, "The main reason for the firefighters to come into the factory to find the way is to check the notes left by the hostages in the hospital before. It specifically stated that there is a second basement floor in the factory. We went there alone for the sake of that person." personal safety of undercover journalists."

Ma Yue said, "But the police come to the door so frequently, are you sure they won't startle the snake?"

Before Shen Changyan could speak, Lu Qinghe understood such behavior one step ahead.

He said, "Now the case has been stuck in this place and there is no progress. The management of the Ganges Steel Plant is very strict and there are no mistakes or omissions. Maybe it is good for us to scare the snake out of the grass. If the other party notices the police's sight, maybe they will show their flaws in a panic. .”

Lu Qinghe voted in favor of the plan proposed by Shen Changyan, and he could make a decisive decision immediately without waiting for the opinions of the other three people.

"Then it will be assigned like this for the time being. Lu Qinghe and I will go to the Henghe Steel Plant to investigate the undercover reporter. Ma Yue pretends to be a firefighter and sneaks into the inspection team to enter the steel plant. He will focus on checking what's going on on the second basement floor. Chen Hao and Zhang An will stay in the city. The Bureau continues to sort out all the evidence and clues currently in hand, and the investigations scheduled in the previous period cannot be interrupted, and all are carried out according to the original plan."

Everyone responded with one voice, "Yes, Captain Shen."

-

After having lunch in the cafeteria, he was ready to set off. This was the police's first official visit after they focused their attention on the suspected location.

Shen Changyan specially borrowed a police car. It was rare for them to set off for the Henghe Steel Plant in Lu'an Town in such an undisguised manner.

The sun was scorching on the top of his head. In order to dispel the heat, he had to open all the windows to the maximum. The hot wind blowing up made Lu Qinghe's hair stand up.

He was pressing a few pages of documents in his hand, originally he wanted to take advantage of this gap to sort out the documents from beginning to end, but he didn't know that people in this hot weather were upset and irritable, the dazzling sun fell on the bare skin, and it was hot. It was as uncomfortable as if someone had grabbed the spark.

Annoyed, Lu Qinghe put all the materials together.

Shen Changyan noticed the movement on the right side, glanced sideways at him and asked, "What's wrong?"

"No." Lu Qinghe said perfunctorily, "It's just that the paper is always blown away by the wind."

"Paper is blown away by the wind, isn't it a matter of course? Unless you are holding a rock in your hand, of course even if you are holding a rock in your hand, if it is a tornado, it will be the same. Blown away by the wind."

"..." Lu Qinghe was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect to get such an answer. After thinking about what this guy was talking about, he pulled back his thoughts in surprise to confirm, "So you are teaching Me, is it a normal natural phenomenon for paper to be blown away by the wind?"

Shen Changyan replied as a matter of course, "Isn't this a normal natural phenomenon? Even if you are in a bad mood, you shouldn't be angry about this kind of thing."

He even taught the other party the truth about whether or not to be angry.

Lu Qinghe originally frowned, his lips were slightly parted, and his face was incomprehensible, but after staring at Shen Changyan for a long time, he suddenly realized, and then he had no choice but to admit his fate, and then shook speechlessly after a dry laugh shook his head.

"Yes, you are right. It is a normal and natural phenomenon for paper to be blown away by the wind. Why should I be impatient because of this kind of thing?"

There was obvious emotional rigidity in the tone, and it was impossible for Shen Changyan to not notice it.

Compared with the previous situation where the mouth was faster than the brain, before asking the other party why the other party was so excited, because of the intimate contact such as kissing, Shen Changyan's body seemed to have some delicateness that did not exist before being activated again. .

It was about an hour's drive from Wancheng City to Lu'an Town, and now they were only halfway there, and they were not in a hurry to solve the problem, but they also uncontrollably glanced sideways at Lu Qinghe several times on the way.

This guy has a bad temper and loves to get into horns. He is good to others but he is extremely harsh on Shen Changyan.

Although the two parties had a good relationship when they were young, it was inevitable that they had a lot of awkwardness with each other. Shen Changyan was not the one who would take the initiative to apologize, and although Lu Qinghe had a strong temper, he was also not the one who would hold on to others and argue with others to the end.

He probably forgot about it after a while.

Shen Changyan thought so, originally it was fine if he didn't speak, but when the car drove past No. 40 minutes, he suddenly spoke to Lu Qinghe again.

"Well, maybe I misunderstood what you said just now. I apologize to you here. I didn't mean to say that you were wrong. I'm sorry."

Lu Qinghe really didn't react, and as Shen Changyan expected, he almost forgot about it, and now he suddenly heard the other party talking to him like this, his mind was tied up, and he let out a surprised cry before turning the corner, "ah?"

"Just now, that, the thing about the paper being blown away by the wind."

Lu Qinghe didn't make a sound, but Shen Changyan continued.

"Because the weather is hot, we have to open the windows. Because the windows are open, you will be disturbed by the wind when sorting out the materials. Today's temperature is about 37 degrees Celsius. The sun is directly shining, so the body temperature will rise a little bit more. People It is inevitable to be irritable in extremely hot conditions, but you still talked to me patiently just now, so I should understand you more."

The way of getting along was suddenly changed by someone, and the awkward person was Lu Qinghe instead.

Shen Changyan's change like this is not as good as letting the two of them quarrel and scold a few times in a sexual comparison, and make people feel more comfortable.

The atmosphere suddenly became awkward.

Lu Qinghe stretched out his hand helplessly and scratched his head, he said, "It's too exaggerated to apologize specially, the heat is really hot, besides, I'm not angry."

"It's the first time I'm in a relationship with someone. There are many deficiencies. Maybe I can slowly understand and improve in the process of dating. During this period, if I do what I say, there are things that make you feel uncomfortable. If there is no place, I ask you to take more care of me."

"A lot, take more time?"

"Well, be patient."

"Wait a minute, what you just said means that we are in a relationship now?"

"Although you haven't nodded in agreement, I'm unilaterally getting along with you as a lover."

"unilateral?"

"Yes, unilaterally. If you feel uncomfortable, you can completely ignore my unilateral behavior. If you keep implying that you are just a suitor, I may not be able to decide what standard should be maintained when getting along with you."

"Ruler, scale? Why is there a scale? No, what scale do you want?"

"It is the measure of the relationship between ordinary friends, childhood sweethearts, suitors and lovers."

Lu Qinghe was speechless, Shen Changyan usually looked very clever, he was an intellectual, why did he look like a fool now?

After repeatedly jumping sideways between the wooden fish's head and the walking steel plate, Lu Qinghe simply gave up struggling, he sighed and said, "Forget it, if I didn't say, you can get along as you like, it's just that you should be more tolerant How weird does this sound, are you talking about business with me?"

"It's not about business." What Shen Changyan said was normal, and besides, there is no conflict of interest. Isn't it clear that it's all about feelings?

Lu Qinghe swallowed his saliva, he still didn't quite understand and asked, "So what do you mean by what you just said?"

Shen Changyan explained, "You said that the wind will blow the paper away, but you actually want to express that the weather is hot, there are many things to do, and you want to rest and have to work, so you feel a little bored. At this time, I should comfort you, and then say that after work we will Go eat cold cakes and drink sweet water, and the matter can be resolved satisfactorily, but I not only missed these information points, but also told you that the paper would have been blown away by the wind. Sorry, sorry."

Lu Qinghe hesitated to speak, opened and closed his lips several times, and finally couldn't help asking, "So you understand everything, why didn't you just do it?"

What's the use of analyzing a lot, analyzing the reasons and psychology of anger?

Saying so much sorry and explaining why you did what you did why not just say "Let's go eat jelly after get off work?"

Lu Qinghe didn't understand, and was even on the verge of being pissed off.

The author says:

Shen Changyan: I am just that, straight and curvy.

Lu Qinghe: Why don't you just shut up.
