Chapter 228: Mirrors
The picture was shot at night, and the clarity is not high, but Nan Zeyu still recognizes K1's face at a glance. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info his brain was racing, thinking back to the scene where he and K1 had met face-to-face.
Although he wasn't 100% sure that the person in the photo was K1, he had to admit that the face really looked familiar.
The man in the photo was crossing the street and happened to be caught by the dashcam of a car waiting for a red light. Judging from the photo, the man is expressionless and holding a bottle of water in his hand.
"Look at this again. Lao Fang took out a photo from his arms and put it in front of Nan Zeyu as if asking for credit. In this photo, the man is walking towards a white Toyota Dominant Prado on the side of the road.
Then, Nan Zeyu quickly skimmed through the rest of the photos, and then muttered, "How did you find this dash cam?"
"It was the owner of the car who took the initiative to contact us, and he lives near Ma Daosheng's house. The owner of the car went to another place on the evening of March 4 last year, because his daughter-in-law was waiting to give birth at her parents' house, and suddenly said that her stomach was a little uncomfortable that night. According to the owner of the car, there was something wrong with his dash cam a few days ago, so he took it to the shop to repair it, but when he checked the video, he noticed this sneaky man. Because Ma Daosheng's case attracted more attention, and the owner of the car lived near Ma Daosheng's house, he naturally thought of some possibilities, so he contacted us. The time in the photo is 11:13 p.m. on March 3, and the location is two kilometers away from Ma Daosheng's home. It's a remote place, and there are basically no people or cars on the road around 11 o'clock. Also, if you look at the photo, the man's waist seems to be a little bulging. โ
"It could be a gun. Nan Zeyu said, "Did you find the car?"
"Found it. "On the edge of an abandoned garbage dump, the hateful thing is that the car is sprinkled with bleaching powder. โ
Nan Zeyu sighed, the murderer was obviously a veteran and knew how to destroy DNA.
"However, we have determined that the tires of this car match the tire marks on the edge of the pond near Ma Daosheng's house, thus proving that this car is the one used by the murderer to commit the crime. Seeing that Nan Zeyu's face was not happy, the old man couldn't help but feel a little lost, "Director Nan, we have been running around for a long time to find these ......."
Nan Zeyu smiled, "You did a good job. He habitually picked up the pen again and spun it around, "Have you found out who this man is?"
"Nope. In our opinion, he is not Chinese. The old man replied, "By the way, Director Nan, do you think this person is a little familiar?"
Nan Zeyu looked at him with a smile, "What do you think?"
"I think...... He's a bit like ......" Lao Fang gritted his teeth, "he's a bit like Wan Guohou's bodyguard, the one who accompanied Wan Guohou to the bureau to record a confession before." After the old man finished speaking, he glanced at Nan Zeyu tremblingly, he still remembered the scene when he was ridiculed by Nan Zeyu because he doubted Wan Guohou.
"I know that guy, K1. Nan Zeyu turned the pen, thoughtful, "with a bearded face." โ
"Yes, yes. Lao Fang was overjoyed, "Look at the photo, this person also has a big beard, right?"
Nan Zeyu didn't speak, he remembered Qian Dayo's account half an hour ago. In Qian Dayon's account, K1 did not have a beard, and in his memory, K1 always had a beard.
"When was the last time you saw K1?" Nan Zeyu thought bitterly. After a while, he remembered that it was a few weeks agoโafter Yue Shuluo and Gao Xiangqi were kidnapped.
"Perhaps, I should find a time to pay a visit to the Marquis of Wanguo. Nan Zeyu thought to himself.
"Smack. As soon as he was distracted, the pen landed on his desk.
"Director Nan?" Seeing that Nan Zeyu had been silent, the old man couldn't help but feel a little anxious, "Should we arrest this bodyguard first?"
"Don't act rashly, Wan Guohou is British, and his background is very deep. Nan Zeyu glared at him, "Have you forgotten? Last year, in Ye Yingjun's case, Wan Guohou recorded a confession in the bureau, and Secretary General Zeng's car was parked downstairs, waiting to pick him up for dinner. โ
Lao Fang was a little unconvinced, "It doesn't matter what nationality he is, if his bodyguard breaks the law, he can't cover it up! Not to mention that he himself may not be clean! If you want me to say, we can't get used to these people!"
Nan Zeyu looked at this upright man with some amusement, he sometimes couldn't help but envy these "tendonous" people, because he felt that this was the attitude that a policeman should have. But he also knew very well in his heart that "a tendon" would never sit in his current position.
"Don't worry, there must be evidence to arrest people, and it is too hasty to say that K1 is a suspect based on just one photo. Nan Zeyu suddenly felt a little dry mouth, he hadn't taken a sip of water since he came to the office in the morning.
He got up and walked over to the cupboard, "Do you have tea?"
"I'm not thirsty, you feel free. โ
Old Fang's answer amused Nan Zeyu, who unhurriedly took out a box of tea leaves and a set of tea sets from the cupboard, and then pressed the heating switch of the water dispenser.
"Then black tea?" he said without raising his head while skillfully arranging the tea set, "Old Fang, don't be so anxious all the time, no matter how anxious you are, the suspect will not turn himself in." โ
"Director Nan, if it's really this bodyguard, I'm afraid he will run away. Lao Fang said angrily, "If that Wanguo Marquis finds some relationship with him, we won't be able to catch anyone." โ
"If he wanted to run, he would have run a long time ago. It's been more than half a year, and he's still in China, which means he's not in a hurry to run away at all. Nan Zeyu said slowly, "Don't startle the snake, sit." โ
"Yes. Lao Fang realized that Nan Zeyu's words made some sense, so he sat on the sofa and relaxed his attitude.
"What else did you find out about Ma Daosheng?"
"Ma Daosheng went to Matsunosato on January 9, accompanied by a few of his friends. It is said that Ma Daosheng later sent a few friends into the car, and returned to Matsunosato alone, and then stayed at Matsunosato for about an hour before leaving. โ
"That doesn't tell the whole story. Nan Zeyu said, "Even if it was Ye Yingjun who received him at that time, it was nothing." โ
"The problem is that we recently found a former employee of 'Matsunosato', and she has a good relationship with Ye Yingjun. She said that when she was sending off the guests, she seemed to hear Ma Daosheng and Gao Jin say what necklace he wanted to buy, and also mentioned the name of a neon countryman. The employee couldn't hear it very clearly, and she said it seemed to be called 'Kujo Yuki-e'......"
With a "bang", the purple clay pot in Nan Zeyu's hand fell to the ground and shattered into many pieces.
"Director Nan?" Old Fang stood up in surprise, he looked at Nan Zeyu's gaze in disbelief, and he was inexplicably a little scared in his heart.
"Ah, it's fine. Nan Zeyu hurriedly squatted down, ready to pick up the fragments with his hands.
"Be careful. The old party hurriedly rushed over to help clean up.
"Forget it, let's drink mineral water. Nan Zeyu looked at the mess and sighed. He stood up, walked to the front of the cupboard, took out two bottles of Evian mineral water, and handed one to Lao Fang. Then, he went back to his desk and sat down. His expression was still a little erratic, as if he was sleepwalking.
Old Fang blinked his small eyes, and after a long while, he cautiously asked, "Director Nan, is this information useful?"
"It's hard to say. Nan Zeyu took a sip of water, but did not close the lid immediately. He stared at the old man and asked, "What about the employee?"
"She has already left the magic capital, she is not a local, and she went home to get married. โ
"Why didn't she explain this to the police before?"
"She said that she used to work at 'Matsunosato' and didn't dare to talk nonsense. Moreover, Gao Jin has a lot of power in the magic capital, and she can't afford to offend. Now that she has decided to go back to her hometown to develop, she is not so jealous of Gao Jin. "But she is still very timid, and has repeatedly begged us to keep her safe and not to reveal her identity." โ
Nan Zeyu nodded and put down the mineral water bottle, "If her testimony is true, it means that this necklace is likely to be the key to solving the case." โ
"But I don't have a clue. Lao Fang said, "Ma Daosheng's case has not found any clues related to the necklace before, the only one involved in the necklace is the one around Ye Yingjun's neck, but then the necklace disappeared, I asked Ye Yingjun's family, they said that they had no impression of the necklace, and I don't think they looked like they were lying." โ
Nan Zeyu smiled, "Go on." โ
"If this chain belongs to Ye Yingjun, then why didn't Ma Daosheng directly ask Ye Yingjun to buy a necklace? Unless, this chain is Gao Jin's. But if the necklace is Gao Jin's, why did it end up on Ye Yingjun's neck?"
"I don't know. Nan Zeyu muttered, "Perhaps, Ye Yingjun is really being used......"
Old Fang looked at Nan Zeyu suspiciously, the expression on the other party's face, he had never seen it. On Nan Zeyu's thick-eyed face, there was a mixture of confused, angry, doubtful, and shocked. Lao Fang subconsciously moved his buttocks, and his intuition told him that it was better not to disturb Nan Zeyu now.
After the two were silent for a long time, Nan Zeyu asked, "Old Fang, tell me your reasoning." โ
"I think Ma Daosheng saw this necklace in January last year and bought it. We can even assume that Wan Guohou also wanted to buy that necklace at that time, but was preempted by Ma Daosheng. Then, Ma Daosheng gave the necklace to his good friend Ye Yingjun. And Wan Guohou is determined to get the necklace, and after this incident, he has a grudge against Ma Daosheng. So, he sent someone to kill Ma Daosheng on March 3, but the killer did not find the necklace in the horse house. On March 6, Ye Yingjun, who learned of Ma Dao's life and death, committed suicide with hatred, and she wore the necklace, which implied to the police that the murderer was Wan Guohou. And later, the necklace disappeared, and I think it's the same as the business card that suddenly appeared on her body, and it was probably done by an insider, but I can't say who it is......"
Old Fang Zhenzhen's eloquent analysis amused Nan Zeyu again, "Your reasoning is very interesting, it sounds like Wan Guohou is a guy who does not hesitate to buy a murderer for a necklace." But I want to say that I have been in contact with him, and this man is very deep. If he had done it, he would never have revealed such a flaw. โ
"Well, there's another possibility. Lao Fangda drank a few sips of water and wiped his mouth again, "Ma Daosheng wanted to buy the necklace, but the holder didn't sell it; then, the holder killed Ma Daosheng and stole his business card; after that, the holder tried to trick Ye Yingjun into wearing the necklace; after Ye Yingjun jumped off the building, he bought our people and put Ma Daosheng's business card on Ye Yingjun's corpse." โ
Nan Zeyu frowned deeply, "According to this reasoning, what is the purpose of the necklace holder's doing this? If he wants to frame Wan Guohou, why would he be so clumsy as to release the business card after Ye Yingjun jumped off the building?"
"I can't figure it out either, so I'm inclined to be the first to reason. Lao Fang said, "The premise of the second reasoning is that someone not only hates the Marquis of Wanguo, but also has the ability to frame him. โ
Nan Zeyu immediately thought of Takagi Kotomi, but then denied the speculation. Takagi looks more like a flashy and noble boy with eyes above the top and boastful talk, and he will not do such a calculating thing. What's more, if Takagi Gongwang had such great ability, it would be impossible for the Marquis of Wan Guo to live so freely in the Demon Capital.
"The necklace thing, don't track it down yet. After thinking about it for a while, Nan Zeyu said carefully, "Go check that guy who looks like K1." โ
"But......" The old man was anxious when he heard it.
Nan Zeyu waved his hand and signaled him to be quiet, "K1 should be Wan Guohou's henchman, if you don't have very sufficient evidence, it will be difficult for you to take K1 in front of Wan Guohou." โ
"I understand!" the old man suddenly realized, "Alibi! As long as K1 doesn't have an alibi, right? At least I can ask him to come and interrogate and cooperate with the police." โ
Nan Zeyu smiled, Lao Fang's naรฏve and foolish energy somehow made him feel a little cute. "The matter of the necklace, Lao Qian also found a little clue, because I handed it over to him to check before, so you don't have to spend too much effort on the necklace, you two can communicate when you have time. โ
"That's right. The old man scratched his head embarrassedly, "I thought you weren't going to check the necklace, but it turned out that you asked Lao Qian to check it." He smiled innocently, "You didn't tell me sooner......"
Nan Zeyu took another sip of water, he was much calmer now. "It's been a hard time for you. โ
"It's okay, it's not hard. The old man grinned, "The case has dragged on for so long, and I'm afraid that you will criticize me." โ
"It's been a long time, but maybe it's because our opponent is too strong. Nan Zeyu seemed to be talking to himself and to Lao Fang, "Fortunately, now I have eyebrows." โ
"By the way, Director Nan, the neon countryman that the departing employee said, should I also check it out?"
Nan Zeyu thought for a while, "Don't use it first, where foreigners are involved, you can list it in the materials, and I want to think of a way to see how to check it out." โ
"Okay, I'll listen to you. โ
After sending the old party away, Nan Zeyu walked to the window. He stared at the succulents on the windowsill, a sneer on his face.
A few minutes later, he took out his mobile phone and dialed Tao Baihe's number, "Where are you chic?...... Are you shopping again? Buying clothes for the winter?"
Suddenly, the corners of his mouth raised, "No need to toss, I'll go with you, we'll buy it in New York." โ
After hanging up the phone, Nan Zeyu looked at the window and was stunned for a while. He sighed boredly at the glass, which became blurry as he stretched out his finger and scratched aimlessly. The place where the finger swiped immediately became clear, and a picture of a mirror appeared on the glass.
