After hanging up the phone, Li Xiaoning immediately dialed the phone number of Meng Fangping, the director of the public security bureau, who cooperated with him relatively well during the accident rescue and established a certain friendship in the line of fire.

After listening to Li Xiaoning's narration, Meng Fangping immediately said, "Just now, the Eastern Suburbs Police Station received a report that someone found a female corpse by the reservoir, and Deputy Director Chu has already brought someone over, I don't know if it's Tao Fangfang you said, do you want to notify Tao Feifei to identify it?" ”

"Don't tell her for now." Li Xiaoning's heart sank and said, "Tell me the detailed address, and I'll go over and have a look first." ”

Li Xiaoning put down the phone and immediately began to pack his things and prepare to go out. Cheng Xiaoxi saw his stern look, and he also put away his little temperament and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"Tao Feifei's sister may be dead, I'll go over and take a look." Li Xiaoning said in a deep voice.

"Oh, be careful." Cheng Xiaoxi said with concern.

"Well, I'm just going to see the scene, don't worry." Li Xiaoning went out as he spoke.

When he arrived at the door, a taxi happened to pass by, he hurriedly stopped it, got in the car and said to the driver: "Master, go to the Dongjiao Reservoir, the sooner the better." ”

The car soon arrived at the reservoir in the eastern suburbs, Li Xiaoning got out of the car and walked over, and found that several police officers had gathered there, and there was a female corpse lying on the ground, and a middle-aged man next to him was recording a confession, which was estimated to be the person who found the body. Li Xiaoning walked over and asked, "What's the situation?" ”

"Who are you?" A middle-aged policeman with the rank of first-class police inspector on his shoulder asked rhetorically with a cigarette in his mouth.

"Deputy Director Chu, right? I am Li Xiaoning, secretary of the county Youth League Committee, and the sister of Tao Feifei, director of our Youth League Committee Office, is missing, let me see if it is her. Li Xiaoning explained.

"Then you ran away in vain, not her!" Chu Dingwei said very simply.

"Oh? Has the body been identified? Li Xiaoning asked strangely, it was obvious that Chu Dingwei had not been a few minutes earlier than him, because the witnesses' confession had not yet been recorded. The identity of the corpse was confirmed so quickly, and he couldn't help but wonder about it.

"yes, that's confirmed." Chu Dingwei nodded and said.

"Who is the dead man?" Li Xiaoning pretended to be very casual and asked.

"Yes......" Chu Dingwei was stuck, but then said angrily, "Why are you asking so much?" I told you that if it's not Tao Fangfang, it's not Tao Fangfang. ”

"Oh, I'm just asking." Li Xiaoning didn't care about Chu Dingwei's unfriendliness at all, "Has the cause of death been identified?" ”

"Fell overboard and drowned." Chu Dingwei said without thinking, "It was an accident." ”

Li Xiaoning couldn't help sneering in his heart, originally Chu Dingwei didn't tell him the identity of the deceased, and it could be said that he was nosy, but now he can conclude that Chu Dingwei is definitely talking about it.

Although he was still standing five or six meters away from the female corpse, he could still see the problem.

First of all, whether the woman is Tao Fangfang or not, it is certain that she is definitely not drowned, because the person who drowns in the water, whether it is a person who falls into the water or is pushed into the water and drowns, must drink a stomach of water and choke to death? However, the woman's stomach was very flat, and it was obvious that there was no water in the stomach, indicating that she was already dead when she fell into the water.

Secondly, the buttons of the clothes worn by the woman were off, it was impossible for such a young and beautiful woman to make such a low-level mistake and go out, the only explanation was that the clothes on her body were worn after death, and the person who dressed her was very panicked, and the buttons were not noticed.

Thirdly, the woman had a ring of bruises on her neck, which was even more obvious, and it was very likely that she was strangled or strangled to death.

Not to mention anything else, with these three obvious evidence of his murder, Li Xiaoning doesn't believe that Chu Dingwei, as an old policeman, will not be able to see it. Since he could see it, but said that the woman had fallen into the water and drowned, then it was on the surface that he was lying.

Why did Chu Dingwei lie? What the hell is he covering?

Just thinking about it, the witness had already finished recording the confession, and a policeman took a notebook for him to sign, but the middle-aged man took a pen but did not sign, but said: "Comrade police-detective, what you wrote is wrong." ”

"What's wrong?" The police officer in charge of recording the statement asked loudly.

The witness said, "I said that the woman did not drown, but you wrote that she accidentally fell into the water, isn't that right?" ”

"Do you know or do I understand?" The policeman's eyes widened and he yelled, "If you want to sign it, where is there so much nonsense?" ”

"I'm not talking nonsense, you're not right, how can I sign it?" The witness was also a stubborn landlord, "That woman really didn't drown. ”

"How do you know she didn't drown?" The policeman asked, "Did you see her dead, or were you the murderer of her?" ”

"I'm not!" The witness was anxious, "When I saw her, she was already like this." ”

"Still nonsense, do you sign it?" The policeman said angrily, "Believe it or not, I'm going to torture you right now?" ”

"I'm signing, can't I sign yet?" The witness had no choice but to sign his name on the confession.

Li Xiaoning's brows furrowed even tighter, and even the eyewitness could see that the woman was not drowned, but Chu Dingwei and the others had to settle for an accidental death, didn't they compose the song first and then fill in the lyrics? Is there such a case?

"Hey, why aren't you leaving?" As soon as Chu Dingwei turned around and saw that Li Xiaoning was still standing in place, he came over and bombarded him, "Hurry up, hurry up, what are you a secretary of the Youth League Committee doing here?" Really. ”

Li Xiaoning now has a little clue in his mind, but he doesn't dare to believe his guess.

He guessed that the woman was Tao Fangfang, and Tao Fangfang was the second wife of an important person in Dongping County, because the Tao family's family background was not good, but Tao Fangfang's clothes were all high-end brands, indicating that she was not short of money at all. According to the theorem that a young, beautiful woman who is not short of money is either a second wife or a rich second generation, then Tao Fangfang must be a second wife, because she is not a rich second generation.

I don't know what Tao Fangfang did, but in short, she annoyed the person who kept her, and then the person killed her and threw her body here. And the person who raised Tao Fangfang must have a very high status in Dongping County, because he could ask Chu Dingwei, deputy director of the Public Security Bureau, to cover up the truth for him.

How many people in Dongping County can do this? It is estimated that they are the members of the Standing Committee of the county party committee. Whoever it is, it will lead to a big greed.

The problem now is that Chu Dingwei obviously wants to characterize this case as an accident, maybe the body will be cremated directly as soon as they are taken away, and then there will really be no proof of death. What to do?

"Snatch the corpse!" A bold thought quickly flashed in Li Xiaoning's mind, and he involuntarily looked at Chu Dingwei's waist and found that he was not equipped with a gun, but the four police officers behind him were all wearing police guns.

It's a bit unrealistic for a man to hold a corpse and get out of front of four pistols.

While Li Xiaoning was thinking about how to snatch the body away in his mind, two police officers had already lifted the body up and walked towards the police van parked on the road.

Li Xiaoning took the opportunity to run over and said, "I'll help you together!" ”

The two policemen paused for a moment, and then said with a smile: "You are quite interesting, most people are eager to stay away from the corpse, but you still take the initiative to lean up, don't you feel unlucky?" ”

"What's the bad news?" Li Xiaoning said with a smile, "Don't everyone have to have such a day?" According to the words of the small damage, 'a day passes as soon as the eyes are closed and opened, and a lifetime passes when the eyes are not opened'. ”

The two police officers were amused by him, "You really look at it." ”

Just like that, the body was carried into the car, and Li Xiaoning took advantage of the moment when the two policemen closed the door, quietly came to the driver's cab, and looked inside, the key was inserted in the car and not pulled out.

"God help me!" Li Xiaoning was secretly happy in his heart, opened the car door, sat in, slammed the door, put the ignition in gear, stepped on the accelerator, and the police van rushed forward.

"!" Chu Dingwei cursed, threw the fragrance on his mouth to the ground, and reached out to pull out the gun behind his waist, only to find that he didn't have a gun at all.

"Shoot, you must not let him run!" Chu Dingwei yelled hysterically at his subordinates.

The nearest policeman hurriedly pulled out his pistol and took aim, but he didn't shoot for a long time.

"Rubbish!" Chu Dingwei scolded, rushed forward, grabbed the gun, raised his hand and hit, but the police car has already gone away, what role can a small pistol play?

"Call the traffic police brigade and ask them to immediately set up a card to intercept in front, notify the special police, and set up a card to intercept at the intersection out of the county, and you must not let him run!" Chu Dingwei gritted his teeth and ordered.

Inside the speeding police car, Li Xiaoning frowned, the body was snatched, but what should I do next? It is definitely not possible to continue to stay in Dongping County, since that person can control Chu Dingwei, it is estimated that this case will not be handled fairly in Dongping County.

Thinking of this, he hit the steering wheel, and the police car roared towards the highway. On the road, I met a few traffic policemen who tried to stop them, but Li Xiaoning didn't stop at all, and rushed over as soon as he stepped on the accelerator, anyway, your traffic policeman's motorcycle couldn't hit my police bread.

The special police didn't react so quickly, and by the time they arrived at the highway, Li Xiaoning had already rushed straight away.

Chu Dingwei, who received the news, immediately ordered: "Chase!" He got on the highway, he was the turtle in the urn, and he had nowhere to run, just to close the door and beat the dog! ”
