Chapter 228: Escape
Song Peiji took Tian Guosheng's interrogation record and found their criminal police captain Lao Xing, Lao Xing was dumbfounded, he was stunned for a long time, sweating profusely, and he couldn't explain where his thoughts came from.
Song Peiji gave him two choices: tell the truth and accept disciplinary action from the public security system, or remain silent and submit to a full investigation by the state security department.
Lao Xing was silent for a long time, he knew very well what he had done all these years, in order to avoid prison, he reluctantly accepted the first choice.
In front of his peers, it was pointless to tell those big lies, and he happily explained the deal he reached with a Mr. Liu from the capital last night, and after he was full of wine and food:
Lao Xing has a daughter who will take the college entrance examination next year and wants to be admitted to the Huaxia Drama Academy, Mr. Liu promised to help him find someone in school at that time, and he promised to help Mr. Liu clean up the two short-sighted actors in the crew of "Happy Enemies".
And Song Peiji investigated the background of this Mr. Liu and found that he was the general manager of Qiufeng Entertainment Brokerage Company invested by Qiu Yi, and the only signed actor in this company is Huang Mengmeng.
The investigation has reached this point, and the person who tried to frame Morning Star and the bald head has been clear, but Song Peiji continued to investigate, but Boss Liu refused to admit that the arson case of the wheat straw stack was related to him, according to him, Huang Mengmeng has frequently complained recently that because the company's investment is not in place, the director has cut off his own scenes.
Qiu Yi asked him to come over to understand the situation, and learned that Morning Star and the bald head had added a lot of scenes, and he was very dissatisfied with them, and it happened that something like this happened in the crew, so he wanted to take the opportunity to fix the morning star and the bald head.
However, he repeatedly stated that this matter had nothing to do with Huang Mengmeng, let alone the company's big boss Qiu Yi.
After receiving the investigation transcript from Song Peiji, the public security department at the place where the incident occurred dismissed Lao Xing, the head of the criminal police, was dismissed from public office, Tian Guosheng was punished with a major demerit, and the case was handed over to another experienced police officer, Zheng.
Officer Zheng immediately ended the investigation of Huang Jing and the bald head, and the Mr. Liu was falsely accused, because it did not cause any serious consequences, and was sentenced to an administrative punishment of 15 days of detention by the public security department.
After investigating the scene, Officer Zheng found that the oil that the murderer poured on the wheat straw stack was the kind of colorless and odorless refined fractionated oil, and this oil can only be imported from a certain country and sold by only one large agency in the city.
The transportation of oil is not easy, and such a large wheat straw stack, if you want to cause a deflagration effect, you need at least 100 catties of refined oil, and hundreds of catties of refined oil need to be filled with at least two large barrels.
The wheat straw stack was built on a grass field about 500 meters away from the set, and the criminals had to transport so much oil to the scene, and ordinary cars definitely didn't work, at least a car the size of an RV.
Therefore, Officer Zheng carefully checked the big cars and RVs near the set in those days, and repeatedly investigated, and found that there was a Beijing RV parked on the set that was very suspicious, because the car had just stopped in front of the refined oil agency in the city for 20 minutes not long ago, and bought two large barrels of fractionated oil there.
And that car is the car of Meng Min, the second female in this play.
Meng Min plays the heroine's mother in the play, which can be regarded as a very important supporting role in the play, she is over fifty years old, plain and serious, and does not like to interact with people, so young people such as Morning Star and Tao Yan rarely deal with her.
She was also popular when she was young, and she also acted in several influential works, but their generation of actors, they didn't meet a good time, when they were popular, the salary was salary plus a bonus, and it was impossible to earn hundreds or tens of millions of dollars in a drama like young actors now.
Many actresses of their generation quit the showbiz when they reached middle age, and she also withdrew for many years, just a few years ago, seeing that the film and television market was booming, and the actors had become high-income classes, they signed a brokerage company to make a comeback.
She is also an old actor, the crew respects her very much, and her acting skills are also online, but she doesn't seem to be in good spirits, and she always looks very tired, so this time the script was adjusted, and the director also reduced her by more than a dozen scenes.
Officer Zheng investigated her as a suspect, but as soon as he saw her in person, Officer Zheng felt that there was someone else who committed the crime, because Meng Min was too thin, about 1.6 meters tall and weighed about 90 pounds, such a physique, it was impossible to carry the two large barrels of oil.
Officer Zheng asked the crew about the live producer, Meng Min had a few assistants around her, and the producer checked the records and determined that she was accompanied by only one assistant, and the assistant was a woman in her thirties, not tall, a little fat, and she didn't look like a strong person.
The straw stack was set up the afternoon before the shooting, and Officer Zheng checked the surveillance of Meng Min and her assistant staying at the hotel the night before the incident, and found no record of them going out in the middle of the night or early in the morning.
The investigation seems to have reached a dead end again, but after Song Peiji surveyed the scene, he felt that Meng Min should have a professional driver, because according to their special parking space, it takes a lot of skill to drive such a large RV from a relatively narrow path to a location not far from the wheat straw stack.
Officer Zheng immediately summoned Meng Min's driver, but Meng Min said that her driver had something at home and went back to his hometown two days ago.
Because the case was delayed for two days in Tian Guosheng's hands and missed the precious opportunity to solve the case, Officer Zheng intuitively felt that this person had now escaped, and it was very likely that he had fled abroad.
When the matter was urgent, Song Peiji used his highest investigative authority to check the entry and exit records of the customs, and found that this person had boarded a flight to the Democratic Republic of the Congo a day earlier.
Meng Min claimed that this driver was temporarily hired by her when she came to film this time, and the company helped her find it, and she was not very familiar with him, but she learned from her resume that this person had driven a bus in the past and had good skills, so she used him and did not sign a long-term contract with him.
Officer Zheng sent someone to Meng Min's agency to investigate, and the agency's statement was completely consistent with Meng Min's, because there was no evidence to prove that Meng Min was directly involved in the matter, and Officer Zheng had to put down her suspicion.
Only Song Peiji knows that Meng Min's Huajia Film and Television Agency is the backbone of the northern circle of the entertainment industry, and it is also a film and television company with the closest connection with foreign capital.
The accident that happened on the set and the smooth escape of the suspect, if it weren't for Huajia Film and Television Company's troubles behind the scenes, it would never have been implemented so smoothly.
