Chapter 287: Who Hides the Murder (1)

Fan Lizhi was drowned in the bathtub of her apartment, which was clearly a blatant and deliberate homicide.

Who would kill Fan Lizhi like this?

Xiong Jiandong quickly thought of the Colini he happened to meet a few hours ago in the downstairs of the Baston apartment, and the tall black man.

Could it be these two people who did it?

Obviously, it cannot be ruled out that Colini and that black man are suspected of committing a major crime!

He thought that if it was related to Colini, Lu Zhichao would inevitably be inseparable. It cannot be ruled out that it was because Fan Lizhi was in Sanya, China, this time, that he was deliberately killed.

Hou Yiying stared in shock at the introduction of the TV news.

She really couldn't believe that Fan Lizhi would suddenly kill herself as soon as she returned to the United States.

Like Xiong Jiandong, Hou Yiying also locked the target of suspicion of the murderer on Kelini and the black man.

On the way back to Chinatown from Baston Apartment, Xiong Jiandong naturally introduced to Hou Yiying in detail about the things he had seen with Colini and Fan Lizhi at the Daimaru Hotel in Tokyo.

But for that black man, Xiong Jiandong didn't know any of his situation.

Hou Yiying thought that fortunately, at the Baston apartment at the time, Xiong Jiandong stopped himself in time and wanted to knock on the door of Fan Lizhi's room, otherwise once a neighbor of Fan Lizhi heard the sound and found out, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Because during that time, it is possible that the murderer had just left after committing the crime.

Old John came up with his coffee.

He told Xiong Jiandong and Hou Yiying that in the United States, some news of murder cases will often be broadcast on TV, but they are usually rarely paid attention to.

Because of the frequency of various types of homicides in the United States every year, people have long turned a blind eye to it and are quite numb.

As old John sat down, a cat crawled up and lay down on his lap very neatly.

Xiong Jiandong's heart was suddenly moved, and he asked Old John: "This cat is very cute, and the breed is very rare, right?" ”

"It's called the California Curly-Eared Cat, and it's not a very common breed!" Old John replied triumphantly.

"Let me ask again, were you a bridge engineer before you retired?" Xiong Jiandong became excited, and hurriedly asked again.

"Yes, sir!" Old John wondered, "But how do you know?" ”

"Me?" Xiong Jiandong hesitated for a moment, and suddenly realized that Hou Yiying was in front of him, so he immediately regained his composure, and then covered up, "It's your son, Kent told me." ”

"Oh, Kent!" Old John seemed to think that this was not the case from Xiong Jiandong's expression, but it was not good to ask the guests what was going on.

At Old John's house, seeing that he stayed for more than an hour and did not see Kent come back, Xiong Jiandong realized that waiting any longer would delay people's dinner, and decided to leave temporarily.

He took out the button-sized camera that had been hidden on his body for more than twenty days, and handed it to Old John.

"This is what Captain Kent entrusted me to you. Originally, I wanted to wait for him to come back and hand it over directly to him. Sorry, we can't wait any longer now. ”

Old John took the button camera and said excitedly: "As soon as Kent came back from the Middle East, he asked me if I had received this thing. Mr. lived up to his trust, and now he really brought it over, which is not easy. Kent said it was very important to him. ”

He asked, "If you don't mind, tell me where you live." Kent must have wanted to know. ”

Xiong Jiandong left the hotel and room number to Old John.

Coming out of Old John's house, Hou Yiying asked Xiong Jiandong unwillingly, why didn't he tell the story of Ken Xian's life in the Middle East. In that case, old John, out of gratitude, might have left the two of them for dinner.

She explained that it was not to eat one of Old John's meals, but to stay and have an excuse to wait until Kent came home.

Because John Sr. just said that Kent is working for the police department, which will obviously help to find out about the murder of Van Lizhi.

Xiong Jiandong said with a smile, according to the living habits of the Chinese people, if there is no invitation, they will generally not entertain guests to dine at home.

However, he believed that Kent would go to the hotel at his convenience whenever he had the chance.

On the street of Chinatown, the two found a Chinese noodle restaurant, and the signature dish was Peking duck.

Xiong Jiandong asked whether he should drink some alcohol to relieve the obvious physical fatigue caused by taking a plane for more than ten hours and not taking a rest all afternoon.

Hou Yiying said that she was willing to accompany her.

When the two were drinking, it was inconvenient to be in the restaurant, so they put the topic on Fan Lizhi in public, and talked about Xiong Jiandong's experience in the past few days in Huai before going to Sanya.

"Actually, I also went to Mazhai Township in Linhuai County, and took the initiative to check the so-called Shangling Divine Sect's main altar there, but it was only because I was later transferred back to Xishan 19th by Director Qiao Zong that I had to let go of this case." Hou Yiying recalled.

Then, she asked Xiong Jiandong with surprise: "But I'm very strange, could it be that you returned to Huaishang this time, the former first deputy director of the Public Security Bureau, who came back from the dead, and was not recognized by anyone?" ”

"It's not recognized." Xiong Jiandong sighed and said abruptly, "Who can believe that a dead person can really be reborn and resurrected!" ”

"Yes." Perhaps in order to deliberately comfort Xiong Jiandong, Hou Yiying couldn't help but smile and said, "Only I seem to have a constant involvement with you, and I found you back from the dead twice." It seems that it is really fate in the past life! ”

After saying this, she immediately felt that something was wrong, her ears were hot, and she hurriedly said to herself, and raised her glass to Xiong Jiandong and said, "Come, drink!" ”
