Chapter 88: The Needle and the Ledger

Once again, Rosen opened his eyes in the sleep pod.

He looked at the group of white coats in front of him with a dull gaze, and he was still in a trance for a while.

I have to say that although Rosen has experienced the process of waking up from the dream of Daliang several times, he still can't adapt to it.

Unlike the previous times when he woke up, Rosen didn't hear the familiar and kind "Brother Luo", he blinked his eyes, and then realized that it was Wang Chuan standing in front of him today.

"Mr. Luo, morning. ”

Rosen raised his arm and gently rubbed his eyebrows, only then did he recall that Lao Cai was transferred to Tianchi to investigate the matter of the earth's aura, and it is estimated that he will not be able to come back for a while, and now his personal bodyguard has been replaced by Wang Chuan.

"Hmm......" Lawson nodded, greeting the other party, and then asked, "How was it arranged today?"

Wang Chuan said with a smile: "Today's most important topic is, of course, the report meeting on the 'Cao Qing case'. ”

Rosen was not surprised by such an answer, he was only curious about one question.

"Do you have a conclusion here?"

Wang Chuan shook his head: "There is still a lack of evidence for the time being, but there are some specific speculations." ”

Lawson was about to ask something, but he heard a "grunting" sound from his stomach, and immediately waved his hand: "Old rules, talk while eating." ”

It is also strange to say that Rosen found that no matter when he woke up, whether he had eaten in the Great Liang Country or not, when he returned to Earth, he would feel a burst of hunger.

Of course, this is a very unreasonable thing.

It is true that Rosen slept for several days, and the sleep pod could only provide him with vital signs, not a real feeling of fullness, but the problem was ......

Rosen was injured in the Great Liang Country, and he would also be radiated by dreams in the real world, so why did he fill his stomach in the Great Liang Country, but he couldn't take care of this body on the earth.

You can't be so double-standard!

In this regard, the only explanation that Rosen can think of is that his "two-way crossing" will greatly consume the energy in his body, so he will feel extremely hungry after waking up.

Cai Bi was temporarily absent, but the working group still arranged Lawson's meals properly and strictly followed Lawson's usual tastes.

Today's meal is tomato chicken, which is a famous dish in Lawson's hometown, and there are only two people who accompany him as usual.

Of course, Qi Yuanshan must be present.

And Wang Chuan took Cai Bi's place.

Luo Sen had just been on the table, and Qi Yuanshan couldn't wait to ask: "Comrade Luo Sen, has the secret room in the 'Cao Qing case' been cracked?"

Lawson nodded truthfully, and while picking up his chopsticks, he replied: "The secret room has nothing to do with the whole case. ”

Wang Chuan said with a smile: "We saw that when we were in the adjudication department, Lu Xuan personally admitted that the secret room was arranged by him, in order to get evidence of Cao Qing's corruption crime, but there is still no answer to how the secret room was made, and there is a lot of arguing on the Internet, I wonder if Mr. Luo can solve his doubts?"

In this regard, Rosen could only spread his hands helplessly: "I'm sorry, I really have nothing to say about this matter." ”

Qi Yuanshan took a deep breath: "Does it have anything to do with that incident?"

Which thing?

Of course, it's a matter of practice.

Lawson nodded: "Yes." ”

Seeing that Luo Sen admitted it himself, Qi Yuanshan also knew that this matter could not be pursued, so he immediately said to Wang Chuan: "In this case, the topic of the secret room will come to an end." ”

Wang Chuan nodded, watching Lawson feasting on the chicken in the pot, and couldn't help laughing: "Okay, regardless of the secret room, now according to Mr. Luo's investigation and analysis, the biggest suspect in the 'Cao Qing case' is probably Wang Xuanran." ”

Hearing this, Rosen waved his hand, pouted and spit out a chicken bone, and said, "Before I come back, did you hear the last clue provided by Xiang Yang?"

Wang Chuan shook his head a little helplessly: "Is it about that ghost market?" There are many keywords on our side that have been silenced, so ......"

Rosen seemed to have expected such a result a long time ago, so he specially explained to Qi Yuanshan and Wang Chuan: "You can first understand this ghost market as an ordinary bazaar, more than a month ago, Xuzhou Mansion opened a ghost market, and the four banner commanders in the garrison army all went to participate, Xiang Yang and Zhou Qingchen didn't buy anything, Cao Qing was cheated by an unscrupulous seller and bought a bunch of rags, so he originally planned to go to the seller to settle accounts when the ghost market opened again next time." ”

Wang Chuan looked at Lawson with some doubts, and hesitated: "So you think that seller is also suspected of murder......?"

Rosen smiled: "You listen to me first, in addition to these three people, Pan Shi also bought ...... Well, it should be counted as some kind of hidden weapon, a box of needles. ”

"Needle?" Qi Yuanshan was stunned, a little unclear.

On the other side, Wang Chuan narrowed his eyes lightly and said in a low voice: "Is the news true?"

"It shouldn't be true. ”

"I see what you mean. Wang Chuan nodded, then stood up and said to Qi Yuanshan: "Qi place, I'll go and review the video again." ”

Qi Yuanshan bowed slightly, watched Wang Chuan leave, and when he looked back, he found that Rosen had rejoined the battle with the tomato chicken.

"So you suspect Pan Shi of being the murderer?"

Lawson was scooping up a chicken paw from the pot, and was gnawing happily, and he didn't raise his head when he heard this, but muttered, "It's purely out of heart." ”

"It's the same as Wang Chuan's intuition?"

"Almost......" Rosen smiled and said, "I just think that Pan Shi deliberately concealed this information before, and there must be a ghost in his heart." ”

After finally gnawing on a chicken paw, Rosen asked in hindsight: "What is the opinion of the task force? Do you think Wang Xuanran is more suspicious?"

Qi Yuanshan shook his head: "That's just Wang Chuan's personal opinion, after all, for the time being, only this Wang Xuanran has the motive to commit the crime." ”

Hearing this, Rosen was a little curious: "What did the other experts say?"

Qi Yuanshan smiled bitterly: "Some people think that there is something wrong with Steward Ma, since they have found out that their master has hanged himself, he is still pretending to knock on the door, which is really unreasonable." ”

Rosen was stunned, he didn't find this, and then said, "What else?"

"In addition, after the comparison before and after the crime scene, we found that Lin Qianjun seemed to have taken something from the deceased's clothes, and then linked to the bandit case, we also have reason to suspect that Lin Qianjun met all the conditions for committing the crime. ”

When the words fell, this time Rosen was really shocked.

Yes.

Throughout the investigation of the case, he always ignored a very key suspect.

Lin Qianjun!

In terms of motives, does Lin Qianjun have it?

Yes!

Because of the bandit case!

There are two possibilities here.

First, Lin Qianjun and Cao Qing were both involved in various crimes in the bandit suppression case, and Cao Qing suddenly wanted to turn back, so Lin Qianjun killed and killed him.

Second, Lin Qianjun himself is innocent, but he found out that everything Cao Qing did in the bandit suppression case, if it is handled impartially, it will implicate too widely, and even affect his own interests, so Lin Qianjun chose to lynch Cao Qing.

Looking at Cao Qing's way of death, strangulation, which itself has a certain meaning of execution in it.

In terms of modus operandi, does Lin Qianjun agree?

Of course!

As Cao Qing's direct prefect, it is not surprising that Lin Qianjun was able to imitate Cao Qing's handwriting.

If Lin Qianjun arrives in person, Cao Qing will of course treat each other politely and retreat.

Poisoning Cao Qing is likely to be just a trick, or it will make it easier for Lin Qianjun to kill Cao Qing quietly.

As for why you want to blame Lu Xuan?

It cannot be ruled out that Lin Qianjun actually knew that Lu Xuan was an undercover agent of the Adjudication Division, so he wanted to use this to kill two birds with one stone!

Yes, from a certain point of view, in fact, Lin Qianjun is more in line with the indicators of the real murderer!

So why did he give Rosen carte blanche to investigate the case?

The reason is simple.

If Rosen can't find out, then everything is easy to say.

If Rosen found out, with his unfounded position in the garrison, it would be easy for Lin Qianjun to attack him!

In the dark, Rosen suddenly recalled the explanation that Lin Qianjun had given him before.

Demand that he must find out the truth before the adjudication division!

In this way, is it convenient for Lin Qianjun to destroy the evidence at any time!

For a while, Luo Sen suddenly felt a little chill in his back, and he didn't even have the appetite to eat, so he hurriedly Qi Yuanshan said, "What did Lin Qianjun take?"

Hearing this, Qi Yuanshan seemed to be prepared, took an iPad from the table, and clicked on a video.

The content played above is edited, as Qi Yuanshan said before, it is a comparison of the crime scene before and after.

As for the content of the comparison, it is very simple.

It was before and after Lin Qianjun checked the cause of Cao Qing's death, and the changes in Cao Qing's clothes next to him!

Cao Qing's clothes were taken off by Rosen himself at that time, in order to simultaneously transmit the overall situation of Cao Qing's body to Earth without a professional forensic doctor conducting an autopsy.

But for this reason, Lawson neglected to search Cao Qing's clothes.

Again, he is not a professional criminal investigator after all, and this is his first time at the scene of a murder, so it is inevitable that there will be some omissions.

At this time, looking at the content playing on the iPad screen, Rosen immediately guessed what Lin Qianjun had taken.

Although the picture is not particularly realistic, from the overall shape, it should be a boxy thing, not very thick, and the texture is a little soft, like a ......

Books!

It's the account book that Lu Xuan specially mentioned to Rosen!

Before this, whether it was Rosen or Lu Xuan, they all thought about one thing.

Lu Xuan believes that the reason why Cao Qing locked the door of his bedroom was to prevent someone from stealing the ledger while he was asleep.

But the problem is that when Cao Qing was killed, he had not yet fallen asleep, but was entertaining guests!

So theoretically, the ledger at this time is probably not in a corner of the room or in a dark tunnel.

It was kept by Cao Qing closely!
