Chapter 409: Get in touch again
The last court session was three days ago, counting Guo Lang's disappearance one day earlier, Mr. Qin has lost contact with Guo Lang for four days, but when the court is about to start today, Guo Lang sent a text message?
Mr. Qin was very happy, he had already started to reply to Guo Lang's message, but Wang Hongxiu stopped him, "Wait a minute, don't you think there is something wrong with this matter?"
"What's the ...... ask" Mr. Qin suddenly figured it out before he finished speaking, "You mean, Guo Lang was caught by Li Zhenwen a long time ago, and he deliberately sent me a text message at this time to get in touch with me?"
I nodded and said, "There is this possibility, otherwise how can you explain that he contacted you when the trial is about to start? The time is urgent, and we don't have too much time to think, when Guo Lang, who has lost contact, suddenly appears, what is our first reaction? It must be to let him testify in court and testify against Li Zhenwen's crime of killing Zhang Qiao ten years ago, but if Guo Lang does not testify after arriving at the court, but instead gives a testimony in Li Zhenwen's favor? The bureau we have spent so much effort to set up will be completely ruined. ”
Wang Hongxiu echoed: "That's what I mean, the timing of Guo Lang's appearance is too coincidental." I can believe that he evaded Li Zhenwen's tracking and hiding, and finally took the initiative to get in touch with you after getting rid of Li Zhenwen's people, but I can't accept getting in touch with you at this sensitive time. So you ask him where he is, and we send someone to pick him up, and he can't appear in court today. Even if we lose the case today, we still have a chance to appeal, but once Guo Lang's appearance leads to bad consequences, we don't even have a chance to appeal. ”
Mr. Qin hesitated slightly, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll ask where he is." ”
After a while, Mr. Qin said an address, "Guo Lang said that he has been hiding in this place for the past few days, in order to avoid being discovered by Li Zhenwen's people, he has not gone out, and his mobile phone is out of battery, so he has not contacted me." Today he managed to find an opportunity to charge his phone so he could text me. ”
I looked at Wang Hongxiu, she beckoned Minister Cui over, and asked Minister Cui to send someone to the address that Mr. Qin said just now to find Guo Lang, if Guo Lang is really there, take him back to the company, if not, then forget it.
Mr. Qin was a little unwilling, "Are you sure you won't let him come over?" If you miss this opportunity, it's hard to say if you want to testify against Li Zhenwen again." ”
Wang Hongxiu shook her head, "As long as Guo Lang has not been caught by Li Zhenwen, the initiative is still in our hands." Liu Yao's testimony is just an introduction, what can really affect Li Zhenwen is Zhang Qiao's case, I don't want to take risks in this matter, I won't let him appear in court until I am sure that Guo Lang is really helping us. So be it. ”
Mr. Qin opened his mouth, but in the end he chose to be silent.
Without Guo Lang appearing in court, Li Zhenwen could not be convicted based on Liu Yao's testimony alone, and Li Zhenwen was certainly not idle in the past three days, so the presiding judge announced Li Zhenwen's acquittal in court, and Red Sleeves Financial Company reserved the right to appeal.
Li Zhenwen was not very proud when he left the dock, at least not as happy as he was when he left last time, and although he was also smiling, I always felt that he was not smiling happily.
Lin Zhuqing was very happy and followed behind Li Zhen.
Zheng Hong and Song Jie didn't make any extra moves, but the way they looked at me was full of threat.
Naturally, I won't stay in the court for long, and drive back to Red Sleeve Finance, this time Mr. Qin also came over, he was more anxious than me, and couldn't wait to discuss what to do next.
"Why don't you let me call Guo Lang over? If Guo Lang testifies in court, Li Zhenwen will definitely be sentenced!" Mr. Qin was very angry.
I didn't speak, and Wang Hongxiu explained again: "I said that rushing to let Guo Lang appear in court before finding out the details may cause results beyond our control." ”
"Could it be that the current result can be controlled?" Mr. Qin snorted coldly, "Li Zhenwen is acquitted, what else can we do? Appeal? Unless Liu Yao can provide new evidence, but is this possible?"
Wang Hongxiu was also very dissatisfied with President Qin's attitude, "I am the leader in dealing with Li Zhenwen, you are just a vassal!
Mr. Qin's face turned red, but he couldn't refute it.
"Okay, sister, let's say a few words. Now we are all in the same boat, all to deal with Li Zhenwen. Now that things are like this, what we have to do is not to quarrel, but to find a way to remedy it. "I acted as a peacemaker," by the way, didn't Minister Cui go to Guo Lang?
Wang Hongxiu looked at her phone, "It should be soon, if it goes well." ”
I also looked at the time and asked, "Mr. Qin, the text message Guo Lang sent you before the trial at ten o'clock is now almost twelve o'clock at noon, has he contacted you again?"
"Not all the time. ”
"How long does it take to get from the court to the address that Guo Lang told you?"
"In less than an hour, even if there is a traffic jam, it will definitely be there in an hour at most. ”
"Yes, Minister Cui must have arrived at the address Guo Lang said, but Guo Lang has not had any contact with you, isn't it clear?" I shook my head, "I'm afraid you were deceived by him." ”
"Impossible!" Mr. Qin retorted directly without thinking about it: "You haven't seen Guo Lang at all, you don't know how much he hates Li Zhenwen!
I smiled, "Then can you explain why Guo Lang didn't contact you to confirm Minister Cui's identity after meeting Minister Cui? To put it bluntly, the address he told you was fake!"
Mr. Qin's face was cloudy, and I continued: "It's okay if you don't believe it, just call Minister Cui to confirm it?"
"I'll do it anyway. Wang Hongxiu said and took out her mobile phone to call Minister Cui, turned on the hands-free and put it on the table, and the phone rang a few times before the phone was connected.
"Minister Cui, have you found Guo Lang?" asked Wang Hongxiu.
Minister Cui said, "No, Mr. Wang. I took someone to the address that Mr. Qin said, but I didn't find Guo Lang at all, in order to prevent missing him, I also specially asked people to look around, but nothing was found, and no one around had seen Guo Lang. I think we've probably been deceived. ”
Wang Hongxiu snorted, "Okay, I know, then you can bring someone back first." ”
Hanging up the phone, Wang Hongxiu looked at Mr. Qin, "What are you going to say this time?"
Mr. Qin shook his head, "Impossible! I have been in contact with Guo Lang many times, he really hates Li Zhenwen, how can he help Li Zhenwen do things again?"
I shook my head, "Mr. Qin, do you hate Li Zhenwen?"
"Hate!"
"Then if Li Zhenwen threatens you with Qin Zhiyun and asks you to help him do things, will you do it?"
Mr. Qin didn't hesitate, "Do!"
"Isn't that right?" I said: "Guo Lang does have hatred for Li Zhenwen crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, but this does not prevent him from doing things for Li Zhenwen, especially after he falls into the hands of Li Zhenwen. Do you think Guo Lang, who has regained Li Zhenwen's attention, will still be your ally?"
Mr. Qin stopped talking, and after a few minutes, he asked, "Then what now?"
"I think it's better for you to contact Guo Lang again. Wang Hongxiu suddenly interjected, "You asked him to come to Red Sleeves Finance, if he is willing to come, it means that things are not as pessimistic as Fang Yue said, if he refuses to come, don't think about it, he must have followed Li Zhenwen." ”
"Okay, I'll get in touch with him again. After speaking, he took out his mobile phone to make a call, and also turned on the speakerphone, but after ringing twice, Guo Lang hung up the phone, and then sent a text message: I can't talk casually here, send a text message if something happens.
Mr. Qin hurriedly sent a text message: You hurry up to Red Sleeve Finance now, there is someone here who can protect your safety. After you come, let's discuss how to deal with Li Zhenwen.
Guo Lang quickly replied: I also want to go out, but I can't go out now, there are people outside, and I can't expose it.
"I just don't want to come over. I snorted.
Unexpectedly, Guo Lang sent another text message: I'll find a chance to go out when the people outside go out to eat, Red Sleeve Finance, right? I should be able to rush over before two o'clock.
I frowned, what was going on? Could it be that my guess was wrong?
Wang Hongxiu was also a little unsure, and Mr. Qin laughed twice, "I knew that Guo Lang would not follow Li Zhenwen." When he comes, everything will be clear. ”
"Then how do you explain that Minister Cui didn't find Guo Lang?" I asked.
"This, there may be some accident, right?" Mr. Qin's tone was not very sure.
I didn't continue to dwell on this topic, anyway, when Guo Lang came over, everything would be clear.
After waiting for half an hour, Minister Cui came back, he came to report the situation to Wang Hongxiu, and I specially asked: "Minister Cui, when you arrived at the address that Mr. Qin said, was there anyone nearby?"
"According to the address given to me by Mr. Qin, I found a small bungalow, there were two people at the door of the bungalow, I deliberately found someone to lure the people at the door to enter, but there was no one in it at all. Later, I took Guo Lang's photo and asked nearby, but no one had seen Guo Lang. Minister Cui said.
Mr. Qin nodded, "That's right, Guo Lang is in that small bungalow, but he doesn't know who you are, so he hid, you shouldn't have time to search all the bungalows, right?"
"No, I was worried that the people outside would come back at any time, so I just took a brief look and came out. ”
Wang Hongxiu and I looked at each other, and this situation seems to be the same as what Guo Lang said, is the address given by Guo Lang correct? This is different from my guess.
It may be that I have suspicions, but I always feel that Guo Lang has a problem.
