Chapter 27: The Desperate Circus (9)
Feng Xiaoke's death surprised me, and the motive for killing Feng Chicheng and Feng Wanli, if it was consistent with the suicide note, would be even more unexpected to me.
At this time, Lao Lu received a phone call, saying that Tang Zhijie had not been arrested, and it was estimated that he had absconded in fear of crime. Lao Lu immediately issued an order to conduct a city-wide search.
Feng Xiaoke's death and Tang Zhijie's escape made the clues of the case seem to be broken. But I found a question from Feng Xiaoke's suicide note, why did the Feng family's huge family property end up being handed over to a lawyer to deal with? What does this lawyer Liu Qishu have to do with the Feng family?
I called the housekeeper, who was frightened and sad because of the death of the young lady, I calmed his emotions a little and asked, "Do you know who this lawyer Liu Qishu is?" ”
The housekeeper said: "He is the Feng family's special lawyer and a good friend of the master. ”
"Is there any contact information for Lawyer Liu?"
"Yes." After the butler finished speaking, he took out a beautiful business card from his wallet and handed it to me. The business card reads: Jinghong Law Firm, first-class lawyer, Liu Qishu.
I looked at the business card and said in my heart: "Since he is Feng Yu's lawyer and friend, then he should know something about the Feng family." Thinking of this, I said to Lao Lu: "Lao Lu, this lawyer Liu Qishu mentioned in the suicide note, we will visit tomorrow." ”
Lao Lu nodded, and continued to arrange the search operation on the phone. It seems that tonight is another sleepless night.
Tang Zhenguo also kept contacting Tang Zhijie, but the mobile phone had been turned off. I can see Tang Zhenguo's anxiety, and I can also see his concern for this apprentice, even if the mobile phone can't be dialed, he still sent several text messages, and it is estimated that the content of the text messages is to persuade Tang Zhijie to surrender and so on.
In the end, Tang Zhenguo was really helpless, and with a responsible attitude, Tang Zhenguo contacted Tang Zhijie's father, and Tang Zhijie's father also rushed to Wanzhou from Kaixian overnight, and temporarily arranged for him to spend the night at my house.
The night is so long.
I lay on the bed tossing and turning, and sometimes I could hear the whispers of Tang Zhenguo and Tang Zhijie's father outside.
A sharp knock on the door woke me up from my drowsiness. I opened the door sleepily, Tang Zhenguo stood outside the door with an anxious face and said, "Zhijie sent me a text back, I know where he is?" ”
This news made me sleepy, put on my clothes and pants, took my mobile phone, and went out of the door with Tang Zhenguo and Tang's father. At this time, it was only four o'clock in the morning.
The three of us flagged down several taxis, but they all refused to take them. Because of the black light, three big men who are not good-faced have to rush from Loquat Ping to a remote and abandoned farmhouse in Tianxing Village, and no one can help but be wary.
In the end, we stopped a black car, and after slaughtering us for 100 yuan, the driver took us straight to Tianxing Village.
Considering Tang Zhenguo and Tang's father, I am in a hurry to inform Lao Lu. And the destination we went to was a former abandoned warehouse of the circus.
The road was clear in the early hours of the morning, and after forty minutes, we arrived at our destination. By the light of the headlights, I could see a two-story rural house towering over the dirt road. And next to the house, there was a small silver car parked.
After collecting the money, the black car driver fled with full horsepower, and the scene instantly became pitch black. I was about to take out my phone to light it when the silver sedan started and turned on its headlights.
Father Tang shouted in a trembling voice, "Jie'er, is that you?" ”
I held my breath and watched every move in the direction of the vehicle.
The door slammed open, and the sound was loud in the night. A person stepped down from the cab, his face couldn't be seen clearly, but he could be heard: "Dad, why are you here?" ”
Although the voice was very weak, I could tell that it was Tang Zhijie's voice, and Tang Father and Tang Zhenguo, who were more familiar with Tang Zhijie's voice, had already rushed forward at this time.
To my surprise, Tang Zhijie collapsed to the ground after getting out of the car, and Tang's father rushed up to help Tang Zhijie who fell to the ground, and shouted heartbreakingly: "Jie'er, what's wrong with you?" What's wrong? ”
Turning on the flashlight of the mobile phone, I was shocked by the scene in front of me, Tang Zhijie was covered in blood, and there were several long cuts on his face, it can be seen that he must have participated in a desperate struggle before.
Tang Zhijie lay in Tang's father's arms, looked sideways at Tang Zhenguo, who was full of tears, and said, "Master, you don't have to feel sorry for me, I don't deserve your sadness." Kill me before I'm dead! As he spoke, he struggled to take out a flying knife from his arms and handed it to Tang Zhenguo, and on the handle of the flying knife, a bloody rope was exposed.
Tang Zhijie's sudden words and actions overwhelmed us.
Tang Zhenguo took the flying knife and threw it aside and said, "Zhijie, what do you mean by this?" Who are you fighting again? ”
Tang Zhijie looked at Tang Zhenguo's face and said, "Master, I didn't fight with anyone, I just avenged Shiruo." Now that my revenge has been avenged, now it is your turn to take revenge! ”
Father Tang said anxiously: "Zhijie, don't talk nonsense, I'll send you to the hospital quickly." After speaking, he tried to pick up Tang Zhijie, but Tang Zhijie shook his head to stop him.
"I'm not talking nonsense. A year ago, it was I who killed my wife, master, it was I who killed my wife! Tang Zhijie shouted in a weak tone.
Tang Zhenguo sat on the ground in shock, I could see Tang Zhenguo's facial muscles twitching, I don't know whether it was shock or anger. However, he still restrained his emotions and asked tremblingly, "Why?" ”
"Master's ...... No, she doesn't deserve me to call her again. She hid from her master that you were stealing people outside, and I found out, and she shamelessly asked me not to tell you. I can't bear the humiliation of my esteemed master, and I know that if I had told you, you might have forgiven her, or you might have divorced her. But I think that such a woman is not worthy of living in this world, so I want her to die, and I want you to kill her with your own hands. So during one of your blindfolded knife shows, I calculated the sound of the drums, and at the same time as your knife shot, I secretly threw a block of ice, changing the trajectory of the knife, and the knife went right into her throat. ”
After Tang Zhenguo listened to Tang Zhijie's words, his whole body trembled, he stood up tremblingly, leaned against the car door, and gasped for breath. I could feel the shock in his heart, the shock. And Tang's father has long been unable to cry.
I leaned down and examined the injured Tang Zhijie, only to find that the injuries on his body were far more simple than what I saw. He had multiple stab wounds on his abdomen and back caused by sharp objects, and he was bleeding profusely. Ordinary people have already passed out under such serious injuries.
I suppressed the shock in my heart and asked, "How did you get hurt?" ”
Tang Zhijie squeezed out a strange smile on his face, then looked at the house where the headlights of the car shone and said: "In my life, I have never lost a fight, no matter whether I meet a person or a devil." The devil who killed Shiruo has been slaughtered by me, and his body is locked up in that house. ”
I stood up and walked to the empty house that stood in the darkness like a devil's tomb.
When you open the old door, the headlights shine into the house. In the center of the room, a man covered in blood was tied to an iron cage, and he had a fatal wound on his forehead. And this person's figure is extremely consistent with the 'Devil Killer'.
dialed Lao Lu's phone.
Police cars and ambulances arrived at the scene almost at the same time, only it was too late. The ambulance can only play the role of a hearse, and there are two corpses, one is the 'Demon Slayer' and the other is Tang Zhijie.
In the end, it was confirmed that the man who died in the house was indeed a 'demon killer', and the method of confirming his identity really made me admire the police. Because the police scientifically identified the human skin mask thrown down by the previous 'Demon Slayer', and did DNA analysis of the remaining skin tissue on it. Although this new DNA data does not have any original records in the police's large database, it completely matches the man killed by Tang Zhijie.
Unexpectedly, the strange and unpredictable 'Demon Slayer' actually died in the hands of a circus throwing knife. Thinking of this, I couldn't help but smile softly, I don't know how strong this flying knife master's master is?
But there is still a question that bothers me, how did Tang Zhijie find the 'Demon Slayer'? After some thought, I guessed that the 'Demon Slayer' was actually a professional killer who was active among the super-rich, whether it was Wang Weisen or the three brothers and sisters of the Feng family, they all knew how to contact this 'Demon Slayer'. I think Tang Zhijie's way to find the 'Demon Slayer' should be the same as the method I used before, leaving the number combination of 666 in Gao Suntang and letting the 'Demon Slayer' appear on its own. And this method is obviously Tang Zhijie's accomplice, Feng Xiaoke told him. Because Feng Xiaoke must know that it was the Feng family brothers who found a 'demon killer' to assassinate Yang Shiruo, and in order to take revenge, she must tell Tang Zhijie about it. Because although Yang Shiruo's assassination was instructed by the Feng brothers, the murderer who really killed Yang Shiruo was the 'Demon Killer'. In order to take revenge, of course Tang Zhijie will personally kill this once arrogant and weird 'demon killer', even if he pays for his own life.
Feng Xiaoke and Tang Zhijie's motives for killing are already very clear, but in the process of carrying out revenge, there are still some details that cannot be confirmed, such as how Feng Chicheng was led to 'Feng Zhuang' as mentioned before? What role did Tang Zhijie play when he entered Feng Wanli's room? All this is dead and unproven, and it cannot be unraveled. However, this will not cause too much inconvenience to the case, nor will it affect the outcome of the investigation.
Of course, there is still a question in this case that has not been solved, that is, the motive of the Feng family brothers to kill Yang Shiruo.
I am a person who likes to get to the bottom of things, so I took Lao Lu to visit the last person in the case, who is also closely related to the Feng family, Liu Qishu, a first-class lawyer.
Jinghong Law Firm is located in an office building in the bustling business district of Taibai Road, and we found this barrister because of an appointment in advance.
However, when I met Liu Qishu, his image was very different from what I imagined. He is about in his early thirties, which is different from what I imagined, I thought that as an old friend of the wealthy Feng Yu and a first-class lawyer, he should be over half a hundred years old, but I didn't expect it to be a young man. He is about 175 cm tall, wearing a crisp brown suit, and his complexion is fair, so fair that it is estimated that many women can envy him. His hair is made of hair oil and has a very sexy back, there is no stubble on his face, behind a pair of sophisticated glasses, there are a pair of deep and shrewd eyes, and the corners of his mouth maintain an intriguing smile at all times. From his countenance, I could feel that there was infinite wisdom in his brain.
After we expressed our intentions, Lawyer Liu said with a sad face: "Comrade policeman, I am very sorry and very sad about the affairs of the Feng family, and I think it is rare for Old Man Feng to be at peace under Jiuquan." As for the Feng family's inheritance donation, I have received instructions from Steward Feng and obtained the original suicide note from Miss Feng. I will follow Ms. Fung's last wish to properly complete this estate donation. ”
Of course, I was not concerned about the donation of the inheritance, but about some details of the Feng family, so I asked: "Although the three brothers and sisters of the Feng family have all died, they have violated the criminal law, and I need to know some privacy of the Feng family." I think you, as the lawyer of the Feng family, should know some truths to a greater or lesser extent, and I hope you will cooperate with the police investigation and tell us what you know. I also know that you are Feng Yu's friend, I think Feng Yu is under Jiuquan, and I also want to understand why his children died tragically one by one. ”
Liu Qishu frowned, held the frame of his glasses with his hand, and then took out a file bag from the drawer of his desk.
I took the bag and pulled out the two documents inside.
One of them was a single page torn from a notebook, the paper was somewhat yellowed, and the words on it were pen and ink written in dark blue ink, and the handwriting was beautiful and strong. Its contents are as follows: Seven days, cloudy. The contemptible are ignorant and frightened. Today is the first birthday of the dog girl, but I can't be happy and happy. A year ago today, I ruthlessly abandoned the twin sister of the dog girl, just because the Taoist priest Nanpu asserted that this twin eldest daughter would bring disaster to the Feng family, and it was best to strangle it in infancy. If you can't bear it, you must abandon it, and you will never see each other. Ay! Looking back now, I was really stupid, ignorant, and unsurpassed!
The other is Feng Yu's handwritten suicide note, with black pen characters, the handwriting is similar to the previous one, but the strength is obviously insufficient, and there are many tremors in the strokes. The contents are as follows: The property of my Feng Yu family is about 2 billion yuan, and after my death, it will be divided into four parts, of which 70% will be left to my third daughter, Feng Shiruo (now known as Yang Shiruo). The remaining thirty percent was divided into three, and was left with my other three children. Feng Yu's own book.
After reading this diary and last words, I understood Old Man Feng's intentions, and also understood the Feng brothers' motives for killing. Feng Yu must have found the daughter he had abandoned before his death, and in order to make up for his mistakes, he left most of the inheritance to her. Unexpectedly, it was this inheritance that made the Feng brothers jealous, so they bought a murderer to murder this sister who had never been masked. However, the Heavenly Dao cycle, the Nanpu Taoist priest in the diary still said that this third daughter finally caused the Feng family to be wiped out.
I put the diary and suicide note back in the file bag and handed them to Lawyer Liu. At the moment when Mr. Liu took over the document bag, I caught a glimpse of the tattoo on Mr. Liu's wrist, with three six's tattooed underneath a demon with wings outstretched.
At this time, I looked at Lawyer Liu's face again, and the corners of his mouth were still smiling.
