Chapter Forty-Seven: Confusing
Sima Kong stopped at this point to take a sip of tea, sorted out his thoughts a little, and then said, "Sir, here I will interject our discussion opinions. The so-called abnormal things must have demons, and too many accidents must be inevitable. Wang Tong almost repeated Liu Guannan's trajectory, Youzhou people, 7th Division, 12th Division, garrisoned Hefei, and transferred back to Shouchun. plus there is also a Liu Tingting who has a relationship with all three. So we think it's inevitable that several people were related 600 years ago, it's just how we can find evidence. ”
Yu Bule nodded lightly: "Bold guesses, reasonable inferences, as long as it is not reversed, there is no problem, otherwise we don't need to turn the door to set up an investigation team to investigate this matter." But in the end, it depends on the evidence. ”
"Yes, sir." Sima Kong nodded yes. Then let the team members introduce separately and present the results of the investigation team in the past month.
The first one with a clearer investigation is Liu Tingting. As the plaintiff in Zhou's case more than three years ago, this person caused a big sensation in the local area, and many residents still have a clear impression of her. As a cheating party, it caused the famous doctor in Jiujiang to go crazy and was firmly nailed to the pillar of shame by all the "insiders".
Even if the federation does not have a strict concept of chastity, a deputy like Liu Tingting, who cheated on his father who was 20 years older than him, was inevitably accused of debauchery. Liu Tingting's life trajectory is not complicated, and she has always been in Shouchun City. Married to Zhou Wen at the age of 16, joined the army at the age of 18, and was also a celebrity in Shouchun City before leaving the cabinet, after all, she was the only daughter of the city defense chief.
However, people praise more about Liu Guannan's love for his daughter, often when he was a child, he often saw Liu Guannan riding a horse and taking Liu Tingting out of the city, and later, it became a father and daughter riding a horse together, or walking. Liu Tingting herself rarely attends the socialization of high society, has almost no notoriety, and does not attract too much attention.
Because more people's eyes were attracted by his father Liu Guannan. At the age of 29, he stopped marrying for his daughter, and often accompanied his daughter, and as the supreme commander of the city defense army, he did not have much other information to talk about. So Liu Tingting has always grown up quietly under her father's wings. Others only know that Liu Tingting is the daughter of Captain Liu, and she is quite beautiful, and almost nothing else is known.
Just reached the legal age of marriage, and married a famous genius doctor early, Zhou Wen, who graduated from the first place in the Southeast Military Academy, can be regarded as a talented woman. For the Liu family, it was handed over. Before the onlookers could react, Zhou Wen became famous in Wu City and became a famous doctor that everyone looked up to. So the attention of the masses shifted to Zhou Wen again.
So there are many people who know Liu Tingting, but there are very few people who can really say one or two. Liu Tingting, who got married at the age of sixteen and became pregnant and gave birth to a daughter that year, naturally did not have the opportunity to wait until the age of eighteen to enter the military academy, and she dropped out of school and waited for childbirth before she even finished the private school. However, only one year after giving birth to her daughter, Liu Tingting took the initiative to sign up for military service, and through her father's relationship, she directly served in the Shouchun City Defense Army and became a confidential officer.
Most people said they didn't know about his cheating on Wang Dong and didn't understand.
Let's talk about Wang Dong. The Intelligence Division had access to all the information that could be used to make secret moves, but he had been dead for three years, and some of the written records had been obliterated. There are also some materials stored in Yangzhou Wu City and Shouchun Military and Political Office, Yangzhou can also be transferred, but it is very easy to be discovered by Liu Guannan, and Shouchun's information is even more untouchable. As far as the information obtained, this person is a bit too clean.
The data shows that Wang Tong is a native of Wuzhong County, Youbeiping. The entire city of Youbeiping has a population of only 40,000, and the population is only a few thousand when it is divided into four counties under the city government and under its rule. It is located in the border area, less farming and weaving and more animal husbandry, almost all of them are free people who are mainly animal husbandry, and the people are fierce and everyone is good at riding and shooting. However, the reading rate is very low, and most people do not complete eight years of basic education.
Wang Tong was able to be admitted to the Youzhou Military Academy from such a small place, and the golden phoenix flew out of the mountain nest, which is definitely something worthy of celebration by the people of the county. Wang Dong can be described as shining in the end, although it is easy to verify after many years. Wang Tong occasionally exchanged letters with relatives in his hometown, and even returned to his hometown to visit more than ten years ago, all of which are well documented. But beyond the endlessness is a near-invisible existence.
However, for such an ordinary major, all the information is too ordinary, and it is a bit abnormal. It can be said that Wang Tong is very in line with the characteristics of a killer, even if he was promoted to the deputy commander of the major because of his merits, most people will treat him as an invisible person and ignore him unconsciously. In addition to remembering his name, he is a gentle person, and many people have even forgotten what he looks like, let alone say memories other than the cheating incident.
Whether in Hefei or Shouchun, Wang Tong did not leave any impression. Except that his soldiers can remember this inaction, approachable commander. For both cities, it was as if he had never appeared. The two cities under his direct responsibility were in good order, the people were happy, and the city walls, gates, and streets were well repaired.
So from the perspective of ability, Wang Tong is indeed a capable official, if he goes back 30 years, he even has the potential to be a famous general. A good fighter has no outstanding achievements, and everything is arranged by him in advance and thoughtfully, so that it can be properly completed when people are not paying attention. This kind of thoughtfulness is extremely difficult, and it can even be compared with Zhou Wen's meticulousness, but because of Wang Tong's low profile, it is so unnoticeable.
Wang Tong has a wife and two concubines, and has no children. No smoking, no drinking, hardly any bad habits. Because of his boredom, he never attends private parties, and maintains a two-point and one-line life in the office family all year round. At home, he basically reads books and newspapers, has an introverted and closed personality, and is not good at communicating with others. His main wife was a local girl who was married during the battle in Liangzhou, and she was mute, which caused him to be quieter at home.
So on the other hand, it is difficult to explain how he attracted Liu Tingting's attention with such a low profile. Even if Wang Tong later became Liu Guannan's deputy, the information shows that the two did not have a close relationship, and Wang Tong rarely went to the door of Liu's mansion. After 02 years, Liu Tingting joined the army as a confidential clerk, but her position was very low, and she could only be responsible for some copying work, serving at the grassroots level of the company, and it was unlikely that she would have direct contact with Wang Tong, the deputy commander of the regiment. Coupled with the age difference, Wang Dong's ordinary appearance to the extreme, the possibility of adultery between the two is almost non-existent.
Finally, there is an investigation of Liu Guannan. also came out of Youzhou, compared with the low-key Wang Tong, Liu Guannan can be said to be bright everywhere. Claiming to be an orphan in the army alone, he is known for his martial arts and bravery, and he must win every battle, and he was promoted from a big soldier to a captain in four years. And the promotion is beyond reproach. Many officers from the Northern Army said that if he hadn't been transferred to the place back then, if he had been following the 7th Division, he might have touched the general.
Although this man is brave, he is not unscrupulous. Several times commanded operations, he was able to command the troops to attack at the moment of shutdown, and specifically defeated the opponent's key offensive points from the front, and it was impossible to explain it by luck alone without considerable strategy, and the public order in Jiujiang City has always been good is also the credit of this person. That's why he was able to be promoted to colonel and become a division commander during the peacetime garrison.
In 18 years, he was promoted from deputy regiment commander to division commander, and the rank of military officer was from major to colonel, which did not look much. But it must be said that Liu Guannan has not studied in a military school, and the starting point is much lower than that of military cadets, for most of the big-headed soldiers like him who have no background and no qualifications have served for eight years, it is good to be able to mix up with sergeants and retire, and those who are promoted to associate officers and non-commissioned officers are excellent, and those who can be promoted to second lieutenants are less than one in a hundred, so the federation will set the second lieutenant as the standard for obtaining military status.
Second, Liu Guannan did not participate in the final battle in the northwest 30 years ago, and he was not a subordinate officer of the two border armies. There are a total of 170 generals in the Federation, and none of them have participated in that battle or even 50 years ago. There are a total of 200 divisions, 125 of which are in the two major border armies, and the capital's Central Army accounts for 25 divisions, and the remaining four garrison areas in the north, east, southeast, and southwest have only 10 to 15 divisions each, with Yangzhou's southeast military region being the weakest.
Like Liu Guannan, who has not gone through the Northwest Campaign, has been a city defense commander for more than 20 years, and has no foundation, it can be said that this is the only case. There are very few other people with similar backgrounds who can survive to the deputy division, and those who have a background can only be a staff officer with no authority in the division. For example, the Lin family, the four brothers of the second generation of Yun Lu Fenghe, and the only one of the four colonels is Lin Yun who is the division commander.
This shows that Liu Guannan is very capable, and the Southeast Military Region attaches great importance to and woos him. After all, Liu Guannan is from the Northern Army, and now he is from the Northwest Army, and he is an authentic descendant of the Sun family. Although Liu Guannan has settled in Yangzhou for many years, he has always been a foreigner, and he was not trained by the Southeast Military Region, so he was willing to hand over one-tenth of his troops to him and promote him to become a division commander, and he was not stationed in Wushi, the state capital, but in the two cities of Jiujiang and Lujiang, which showed a situation of reassuring acceptance.
You must know that Yangzhou is divided into six cities: Jiujiang, Lujiang, Jinling, Wu, Huiji, and Yuzhang, the latter four are south of the river, and the two cities of Jiujiang and Lujiang in the north of the river. There are a total of 11 divisions, Wu as the state capital, sitting in 5 divisions, Jinling 1 division, Huiji and Yuzhang because of the vast land, each stationed 2 divisions. However, the two cities in Jiangbei were handed over to Liu Guannan's 1 division to guard the town.
These two cities are not big cities, and the level of the mayor is the deputy department level, which is equivalent to the deputy division commander, which is slightly lower than Liu Guannan's level. Although the military and the government are under their control, in fact, Liu Guannan is the highest-ranking governor of the two places, and he is basically not subject to the control of local political officials.
However, what is puzzling is that the life of such a strong person is outrageously simple. In 608, his daughter died, and Liu Guannan before his son-in-law was imprisoned If Liu Guannan smoked and drank alcohol and described it with a straightforward temper, then after this incident, he was like a different person, when he was 53 years old, he took his granddaughter Zhou Huiwen back to his home after the incident, quit all bad habits, and became the "father" who doted on his daughter more than ten years ago. ”
Almost except for the time of work, all Shouchun people saw was Liu Guannan with his granddaughter, riding horses, walking, and shopping, which seemed to have completely transferred his love for his daughter to his granddaughter. However, it is no longer as closed as when Liu Tingting was cultivated, and the 11-year-old Zhou Huiwen has become a celebrity in Shouchun City, often going in and out of various social occasions with her grandfather, and is respectfully called the "little princess" of Shouchun.
Liu Guannan, who was secretly tracked by the investigation team for more than 20 days, did not find any abnormalities, even if he took Zhou Huiwen out of the city to ride a horse, he walked on the official road, the hippodrome of the military camp, and there was no cover-up. Looking back at Liu Guannan's vacation and correspondence records, in the part that can be confirmed, it was not found that he had too much contact with his hometown in Youzhou or the old prefect Sun Zhengxiu, and there would not be a single letter exchanged between the two places for several years. It can be said that Liu Guannan has cut off the past and completely settled in Yangzhou. Of course, this is also the premise that the Southeast Military Region spares no effort to win him over.
Liu Guannan's life is extremely regular, he goes to the division headquarters at 8 o'clock every morning, goes home for lunch at 11:30 a.m., returns to the division headquarters on time at 1:30 p.m., and goes home from work at 5:30 p.m. As long as it is not a rainy or snowy day, I will take my granddaughter out for a walk for about half an hour at 7 o'clock, and arrange for my granddaughter to sleep at 10 o'clock. Regular, almost mechanical. On weekends and holidays, he takes his granddaughter out of the city to climb mountains, ride horses, and go fishing.
Of course, he is also a frequent guest at the banquets of the major families in Shouchun, as said before, every time he goes to a banquet or meeting, he will definitely bring his granddaughter. And no matter how important the party is, he will come home on time at 10 o'clock and arrange for his granddaughter to go to bed on time.
In the end, Sima Kong concluded that the investigation team's investigation of Liu Guannan has fallen into a predicament. From the perspective of the chain of reasoning evidence, Liu Guannan and the blood blade should be absolutely inseparable. Between Liu Guannan, Wang Tong, Liu Tingting and Zhou Wen, there are too many unexplained relationships. However, although Zhou Wen confirmed before his death that he was from the branch organization of the killer organization Blood Blade, his words could not be directly used as evidence. The three killers he killed could not find any identity information and could not be traced.
And Wang Tong and Liu Tingting have been dead for three years, and there is not much information left, and there is no way to trace them. Now the only clue is Liu Guannan. But after more than 20 days of monitoring, nothing was found. The investigation team even doubted that Liu Guannan had broken away from the killer organization, at least for a period of time, and could not find any suspicions about him.
