Chapter 37: Belief (1)
Cheng Han drove the car and galloped all the way, and the destination was Cui Jay's penthouse. It's already twelve o'clock in the morning, and it's a new day, and Cheng Han hopes that this case will have a perfect ending.
At midnight, there were significantly fewer cars on the road. Without the congestion during rush hour, it was a 20-minute drive, but in the end, it only took 10 minutes to reach the destination.
Standing under this towering building, at this point, according to Cui Jay's age, he should have slept well. Although Cheng Han was nervous, he still rang the answering machine.
"Cui Mansion, who are you?" A mellow voice came from within.
"I'm sorry to bother, I'm Cheng Han, a special consultant of the criminal police team, and I want to come over to visit Mr. Cui." Cheng Han's palms were already sweating.
Although the voice was still polite, it refused mercilessly, "I'm sorry, Mr. Cui has already fallen asleep, please come back another day." ”
"I, I really have something important to come to Mr. Cui."
"Ms. Cheng, please go back." still replied with a refusal, but at this moment, an old voice came from the answering machine, "Ah Liang, who is it?" ”
"Sir, it's Cheng Han from the criminal police team."
"Cheng Han? She was involved in Hongyu's case, right? Cui Jay asked.
"That's right."
"Let her in!"
As soon as the words fell, the door opened, Cheng Han thanked him and walked into the building. Everything in this building is very simple and straightforward, and it is completely different from 'supremacy'.
Standing in the elevator, pressing the top floor, looking at the rising floor numbers, Cheng Han was a little uneasy, she really couldn't predict what would happen in the next second. The elevator door opened, and a middle-aged man in a suit appeared in front of Cheng Han.
"Miss Cheng Han, I'm Ah Liang, the housekeeper of the Cui Mansion, and Mr. is already waiting for you."
Under the guidance of Ah Liang's housekeeper, Cheng Han met Cui Jieyi, who was sitting on the sofa in the living room. is already in his seventies, and he has a serious illness, and his spirit is not as good as before.
He sat on the sofa in a dark red plush nightgown and a cane in his hand, "Coming?" ”
"Mr. Cui, I'm sorry to disturb you so late."
The old man was very majestic, and Cheng Han stood in front of him, obviously feeling a sense of oppression.
Cui Jieyi looked Cheng Han up and down, and nodded, "Sit down." It doesn't bother me, I've been lying down for so long, I really don't want to sleep anymore. In the first place, you were involved in the Red Rain case? ”
"Yes", Cheng Han just said a word dryly, not knowing how to carry on the conversation.
"So, what do you think of her as a person?"
Cheng Han raised his head, looked at the majestic old man, and said word by word, "The sin deserves it." ”
"Hahaha, what a crime deserves. You should know that she is my wife. Cui Jay's thumb rubbed the tiger's head on the cane, and then asked, "You let her wait for the trial inside, ruined her, how dare you come to me alone!" Aren't you afraid that I will do you to avenge the red rain? ”
"Mr. Cui, you won't!"
It's a bet, a bet on your own judgment of Choi Jay. Although he betrayed his original wife, he was affectionate and righteous to Yao Hongyu and had his own limits. Otherwise, it would not have been expanding the scope of business for so many years.
Cheng Han's words made Cui Jieyi's face relaxed.
"I didn't expect that you little girl is not small. Okay, let's talk about it, what the hell is going on with me. Don't make a perfunctory excuse for me to visit a sick person, because no one is going to visit a stranger at this time. He waited with interest for Cheng Han's answer.
"Actually, I'm just a little curious. Obviously, all the previous reports have said that you ...... Now, but there's gossip that you're almost as good as you are. So, I would like to ask you, what kind of medicine is it, so effective! After opening up to speak, Cheng Han lost his previous nervousness, and looked at Cui Jie Yi for a moment.
"It's just an illusion." Cui Jay smiled lightly, as if he was not talking about his own life and death.
"Illusion? What do you mean by that? Cheng Han was puzzled.
"People, once they get old, they are already down-looking at life and death. After lying down for so long, my body has collapsed. Indeed, after taking a new medicine, I have improved somewhat. However, my body knows that the way it is now is just a return to the light. ”
"New drugs? Can you make it easy for me to take a look? ”
Cheng Han was afraid that Cui Jieyi would misunderstand, so he hurriedly explained, "That's the case, in fact, the real purpose of my visit this time is to ask you for medicine."
An elder in my family who watched me grow up was in the same situation as you before, and he was unconscious all the time, and there was no medical treatment. Although we all know that her deadline is approaching, her son is still trapped abroad and has no way to get back.
I was pampered by her since I was a child and wanted to do my part. I thought, what kind of medicine do you take, even if I am cheeky, I will come and buy a few bottles with you to bring to the elder of my family. Although she can't prolong her life, she can last a few more days, and when the child comes back to see her for the last time, it can be regarded as fulfilling her last wish. As she spoke, her voice choked up, and her eyes glistened with tears.
Cui Jay looked at her, and these words poked at the softest place in his heart. He has been crawling in the mall for many years, and he has seen too many deceits, and when he is old, he longs for the truth in the world.
At the beginning, he thought that Yao Hongyu really loved him, and he spent all his money for her, and he did not hesitate to divorce his wife. But in the end, that person was a master of acting, and he followed himself, an old man, but he just took what he needed.
Now he wants to make amends for his mistakes and get close to his sons. But when the children were older, they turned away from their mother when they saw how they treated them.
"Ah Liang! Bring my medicine. Cui Jay shouted, and the polite butler walked in with a small bottle.
"Sir, your medicine." Butler Ah Liang respectfully put the medicine in Cui Jieyi's hand, and stood next to him with his waist straight.
"Look at it, if you think it's okay, I'll give it to you!" Cui Jieyi was about to give the medicine to Cheng Han in a big way, but the housekeeper behind him opened his mouth to stop him, "Sir, this is your last bottle of medicine, if you give this away, you won't have it yourself." ”
"Drink one less bottle, it shouldn't matter." Cui Jieyi said yes, and insisted on giving the medicine to Cheng Han.
Cheng Han unscrewed the cap, approached the bottle and smelled it, and there was a smell of paper money burned during the Qingming Festival. When I got to the mouth of the bottle and looked inside, I saw that the liquid in the bottle was not very transparent, and I poured a little bit on my hand, showing a grayish-black color.
While Cheng Han was doing all this, he secretly watched Ah Liang's every move with his spare eyes. I saw that his face was full of anxiety and he wanted to say something to stop him, but he knew the character of his husband, so he could only do it in a hurry.
"If Mr. Cui only has this last bottle, I won't be able to take it so selfishly, after all, this is your life-saving medicine." Speaking of this, Cheng Han changed his words, "It's better for you to tell me the address, I'll buy some myself, and I won't trouble you." ”
"That's fine, but I don't know where it came from. Hey, Ah Liang, didn't you give it to me, you should tell Miss Cheng. ”
Ah Liang, who was standing up straight, was suddenly named by Cui Jieyi, and he was in a trance for a moment before he said, "I'm really sorry, Miss Cheng, this medicine is specially prepared for Mr. Cui, I bought it from a website, and there is no address on it." ”
"Oh? Is that so? Can you trouble Mr. Ah Liang and give me the address of that website? ”
Ah Liang was a little reluctant, but he couldn't stand Cui Jieyi's staring at him, so he could only pick up the pen and write a website address and hand it to Cheng Han.
Looking at this website, Cheng Han stood up with satisfaction and said goodbye to Cui Jieyi, "Mr. Cui, thank you so much for your generosity. If you want to take advantage of this opportunity to enjoy life, then look for a chance to go out and shop.
Even sitting in a coffee shop by the sea, basking in the sun, eating brunch, and drinking coffee, is more realistic than being at home now, thinking crankily alone. ”
Cui Jieyi sent Cheng Han to the elevator, "Then tomorrow is good, I'll go out for a walk?" ”
"Of course, if you can make an appointment with Mrs. Ling, maybe you will be in a better mood." After speaking, Cheng Han waved his hand at him mischievously and walked into the elevator.
"Mrs. Ling?" Cui Jieyi recalled Cheng Han's words, "Ah Liang, who did you say this girl was talking about?" ”
Ah Liang thought for a moment and said, "Mrs. Yao is in there now, and the lady in Miss Cheng's mouth should be the original one." ”
Cui Jay smiled, "Then, you can help me ask her to have a meal tomorrow." Oh, it's brunch. ”
After saying that, he seemed to be in a good mood, humming a little tune, shaking his head, and trying to walk around the room. Ah Liang looked at his back, his eyes darkened, but soon, he regained his respect.
Cheng Han stepped out of the elevator and immediately sent the website written by Ah Liang to Xiao Rongzheng, "Please ask Bai Ge to check this website, there should be a major discovery." ”
As soon as the message was sent, Xiao Rongzheng's phone called, "Where are you?" ”
There was undisguised worry in his tone, and Cheng Han didn't hide it from him, "I just came out of the Cui Mansion and chatted with Cui Jie for a while. ”
"You're so late, what are you going to do with him, hurry back to the bureau! Ran Ran was worried, and of course, I was also worried. ”
The wind blew Cheng Han's cheeks in the middle of the night, and he felt a cool air hit him. Cheng Han wrapped his coat tightly and ran into the car quickly, "I'm not a one- or two-year-old child anymore, what is there to worry about."
Besides, everyone is going in different directions, and if I try to convince you to accept my conjectures, we will waste a lot of time. By the way, have you discovered anything during this time? ”
In fact, when he made this call to Cheng Han, Xiao Rongzheng was still weak in his heart. Because from the moment Cheng Han left, he was worried that the relationship he had just started would be lost by himself.
He even imagined many kinds of Cheng Han's current state, some were angry, some were crying, there were many, many more, but he was not as calm and self-contained as he is now. Such a calm Cheng Han made Xiao Rongzheng feel a little uncomfortable. Even if she loses her temper at herself, or cries a lot, she will make herself feel needed than she is now.
Listening to Cheng Han's voice at this moment, Xiao Rongzheng could also guess that she was devoting herself to the case, so she temporarily suppressed her cranky thoughts and replied, "Oh, we saw that the black car entered City B a week ago, and the driver at that time was the driver who was hospitalized due to illness that Zhou Chuyuan said. ”
"Isn't he a thief in this way? Since there is a problem with this employee, will Zhou Chuyuan, the boss, be the mastermind behind the scenes? ”
"It won't be Zhou Chuyuan." Xiao Rongzheng denied.
Cheng Han was a little unable to understand Xiao Rongzheng's trust in Zhou Chuyuan, "How do you know?" ”
"Because this news was provided to us by Zhou Chuyuan after his own verification."
"......" For a while, Cheng Han didn't know what to say, "Okay, then let's do it first, if there is anything, let's talk about it when I return to the bureau." ”
said that he started the car, and without waiting for Xiao Rongzheng to say anything more, he hung up the phone decisively.
When Cheng Han rushed back, it was just in time for Xie Wencong and Shi to take the driver to the bureau to make a record. She said hello to the two of them and walked straight into the office, while the two behind her subconsciously looked at Xiao Rongzheng, who was already in the interrogation room, and was careful of the sudden outburst.
"White pigeon, did Captain Xiao give you a web address?" Cheng Han walked straight to Bai Ge's side and asked.
"Oh, this website is found out, it's an online fortune telling, medicine buying website." The white pigeon turned the screen in the direction of Cheng Han.
Cheng Han held his desk, half-squatted on the ground, and carefully browsed the content on the website. To be honest, this is a shoddy website, with a messy version and a penchant for superimposing colors. But it can highlight its own advantages, and all the businesses are marked in bright red fonts, which is very eye-catching.
"Home remedies cure all diseases, and medicine eliminates diseases; Eight characters are considered marriages, and they are changed by luck; Borrow longevity from the sky, and the blessings will continue. "In addition to the first two businesses being more common, the third one is somewhat attractive.
Cheng Han clicked this button, and a dialog box for online customer service popped up.
"Hello, dear, because of the business you ordered, we will only take one task at a time according to the order of priority. So, I won't charge you anything for the time being.
If you are interested in our other projects, please start filling in your birthday, and after registering as a member of this website, you will enjoy a 50% discount~"
If it weren't for the wrong website, with the dedication of this customer service, Cheng Han would have given a five-star praise. She reached out and typed on the keyboard, "Please tell us more about the project 'Borrowing from the Sky', I am interested in your family." Even if I don't take orders now, at least let me know. ”
"This dear, yes. My family's 'borrowing' project can be tailored to your own needs. There are usually 1 to 5 year economy packages, but if you need more years of life, you need to talk to our master and then make a detailed plan. Of course, there is no upper limit on the price of the exclusive customized plan. After all, life is priceless, don't you say that's the reason? ”
"My mother, this customer service can really say", the white pigeon is already so impressed, "This little mouth can be said to be alive!" ”
"Does the IP address of this website show?" Cheng Han asked while replying to customer service.
Bai Ge shook his head, "This IP address shows that it is abroad, it seems that they have long expected this hand, and the anti-reconnaissance ability is still very strong." ”
This is what Cheng Han expected, if it was really so easy to find, it would not have made any big progress until now.
"Dear, before you continue to ask, I want to ask, which of our members recommended us to you?" There was still a smiling face in the sentence sent by the customer service on the screen, but Cheng Han always felt that this smiling face was not simple.
She thought for a moment and typed the word 'Ah Liang' into the dialog box. The opposite side kept showing that it was typing, and after waiting for less than a minute, I finally replied with a message, "Dear, in view of your dedication to our 'borrowing' service, we have decided to tailor a plan for you, please meet at two o'clock this afternoon in the suburban Huanshan Park." Once the agreement is reached, please pay half of the deposit. We hope you have a great day! ”
Cheng Han looked at the words on the screen, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, "I'm hooked." ”
