Chapter 34: Mysterious Witness

Hearing Ye Shen's question, Xianglin nodded, took out a miniature camera from his pocket and handed it over, "It's all in there, Mr. Ye." ”

Ye Shen took the thing, solemnly put it in his pocket, and then raised his head and said, "Did you hear what I said to Miss Shang just now?" ”

Xianglin nodded, his face a little sad, "I didn't expect Miss Shang's secret to be such a thing, it's really pitiful." ”

Ye Shen nodded lightly, "This matter is indeed pitiful. But don't let your guard down completely, if Shang Yucheng gets involved with the Japanese because of the idea of revenge, it would be a big mistake. ”

Xianglin nodded hurriedly, "I know Mr. Ye." ”

Ye Shen walked out of the merchant and returned to the Lu family's mansion. The night covered the dark shadow behind him, which was the spies that the Lu family had planted nearby. Ye Shen's meeting with Shang Yucheng at night had already fallen into the eyes of the black shadow.

The next day, he slept until noon, Shang Yucheng walked out of the room with a tired face, and Xianglin brought a cup of hot coffee with a very good look, "Miss, let's have some coffee." ”

Shang Yucheng took it and looked up at Xianglin, "I'm hungry, when will I eat?" ”

Xianglin hurriedly said, "The meal is ready, can Miss eat it now?" ”

Shang Yucheng nodded, "You go and call Ye Shen for me-" She glanced up at the wall clock, which said half past eleven. "Meet at the Xiang Sifang Delicatessen at one o'clock."

Xianglin agreed, and said, "In the morning, when Miss Leng was still sleeping, a Miss Leng came. Xianglin picked up an envelope from the table, "There is also a cardboard box handed to Shang Yucheng, which was sent by Miss Leng. ”

Shang Yucheng took the envelope and opened it, and there was a check for five thousand yuan inside. She glanced at the cardboard box, which was printed with the words Leng Jewelry Store, presumably a gift from Leng Clan. She casually put her things down, picked up the envelope and put the check in.

"Let's put it down." Shang Yucheng said casually. "I'll talk about it when I meet with Ye Shen."

"Yes." Xianglin agreed, turned around and went to call.

Shang Yucheng had lunch and was changing clothes in the room, when he heard Xianglin say outside, "Miss, the second young master is here." ”

Shang Yucheng frowned, got dressed and came out of the room, "Jing Cheng, can you eat?" ”

Lu Jingcheng shook his head, knocked on his forehead and said, "I drank too much last night and didn't have much appetite." ”

Shang Yucheng said with a smile, "That's right, Xianglin cooked chicken soup, drink something to fill your stomach." Xianglinβ€”" Shang Yucheng shouted, "Serve a bowl of chicken soup to the second young master and bring some snacks." ”

The two sat down on the sofa, Lu Jingcheng looked at the things on the table and asked, "Sent by the Leng family?" ”

Shang Yucheng nodded, "It was delivered in the morning." ”

Lu Jingcheng said, "What are you going to do?" ”

Shang Yucheng said, "Yesterday was the day of our engagement, and there was a fake jewelry, if you don't get angry, it's a lie." She took a sip of coffee and continued, "But what you said is also reasonable, since the Leng family is the business partner of the Lu family, I am afraid that I can only swallow this breath." ”

As he was talking, Xianglin came out with chicken soup, Lu Jingcheng picked up the soup bowl and drank two sips before putting it down, "I know that this matter has wronged you, and I will think of ways to compensate you." ”

"It doesn't have to be." Shang Yucheng said lazily, "I can naturally ignore it, but don't forget - the person who got angry yesterday was Ye Shen." I am willing to suffer for the Lu family, but Ye Shen may not. You might as well go and persuade him sooner. ”

Lu Jingcheng nodded, "I know, I'm going to go to him." Just wanted to take a look at you first-"

Shang Yucheng stood up with a smile, "You better go and get down to business earlier, you don't have to look at me." lest you lose time and think about it again and be angry with me again. ”

Lu Jingcheng also stood up and said with a smile, "This will never be." Look, you're both of us' private business, and you have nothing to do with business. As he spoke, he picked up his coat beside him, "I'll go first." ”

Shang Yucheng nodded, "Let's go." ”

Waiting for Lu Jingcheng to leave, Shang Yucheng also put on his coat and went out.

At noon, the business of Xiang Sifang Deli was just right, and when she saw Shang Yucheng coming in, Uncle Jin Shan hurriedly led her up to the second floor.

"Shu Qiang hasn't arrived yet?" Shang Yucheng saw that there was no one upstairs, so he asked.

"Not yet." Uncle Jin Shan replied, "Is there something delayed, do you want me to take a look?" ”

"No, I'll wait." Shang Yucheng sat down and took the tea poured by Uncle Jin Shan, "I also made an appointment with Ye Shen today, and when you see him, call him up." ”

Uncle Jin Shan was surprised, "Ye Dashao? ”

Shang Yucheng nodded, "This matter is a long story, for now, it is enough for you to know that Ye Shen is not an enemy." ”

Uncle Jin Shan answered, turned around and went downstairs.

Shang Yucheng looked at the time, picked up a newspaper on the table and flipped through it.

Suddenly, a social news version of the news caught Shang Yucheng's attention: the out-of-fashion dancing girl hotel died mysteriously, and the police station chased the murderer day and night and obtained key witnesses.

The photo on the side is Wu Hong, who has been dead for many days.

According to Ye Shen's inference, the murderer who killed Wu Hong was Lu Jingpeng. But whether it is Shang Yucheng or Ye Shen, they don't believe that the police will list Lu Jingpeng as a suspect for verification. With Wu Hong's identity, this case is likely to become a headless public case, so Shang Yucheng did not pay too much attention to how to develop in the future.

Could it be that a key witness has really appeared? Shang Yucheng guessed while looking at the detailed news below, and in less than a moment, her brows furrowed slightly.

Footsteps sounded on the stairs, as well as Uncle Jin Shan's voice, "Miss Shang, Mr. Shu is here." ”

Shang Yucheng raised his head when he heard the sound, and sure enough, he saw Shu Qiang, who was wearing a black leather jacket and was in good spirits, walking over.

"Miss Shang." Shu Qiang smiled and said hello.

"Mr. Shu, please be seated." Shang Yucheng said.

Shu Qiang sat down, saw Shang Yucheng frowning, and asked with concern, "What's wrong, Miss Shang?" Could it be that it didn't go well last night? But the news of the Leng family's jewelry fraud has come outβ€”β€”"

Shang Yucheng shook his head, "It's not this thing. As she spoke, she handed the newspaper in her hand to Shu Qiang. ”

Shu Qiang took the newspaper and saw the headline, looked up at Shang Yucheng suspiciously, and then lowered his head and quickly browsed the news, then put down the newspaper and said, "Wu Hong died in the hotel, and the police found a resident as a witness through multiple investigations. Is there a problem with this news? ”

"I'm not sure if there's a problem." Shang Yucheng frowned and shook his head. "It's just that I think this case seems to be easier to solve, which makes people feel unsteady." Shang Yucheng thought for a while and said, "You are very familiar with the people in the police station, you go and inquire about the origin of this witness, and what he has testified." ”

Shu Qiang nodded, "Okay." ”

"No need." Ye Shen's voice came up from the stairs.

Shang Yucheng and Shu Qiang both turned their heads to look over.

Ye Shen was dressed in a black windbreaker and walked up the stairs in a chic manner.

"Ye Shen!" Shu Qiang stood up abruptly.

"Mr. Shu." Shang Yucheng stopped softly, and then continued, "I invited Mr. Ye to come." ”

"You invited him?" Shu Qiang frowned, glanced at Ye Shen with vigilance, and said, "But-"

Ye Shen said with a smile, "I have already turned hostility with Miss Shang into jade silk and officially cooperated." Surprised? ”

Shu Qiang glanced at him with disgust and looked at Shang Yucheng inquiringly.

Shang Yucheng was so amused by Ye Shen's words that she almost laughed out loud, she bit her lip and couldn't help but smile, "Mr. Ye, please take a seat." ”

Ye Shen stretched out his hands to Shu Qiang, walked to the table and sat opposite Shang Yucheng.

Shang Yucheng glanced at him warningly, and then said to Shu Qiang, "I talked to Mr. Ye, and he knows some inside information about Su Jingyao's case five years ago, which may help us." ”

Shu Qiang looked at Ye Shen suspiciously, "He? How could he know the inside story of Su Jingyao's case? ”

Ye Shen sighed, "Inspector Shu, I have known Lu Jingpeng and Zhao Wenxuan for many years, so it's not strange to know some inside information, right?" Ye Shen looked at Shu Qiang, and then looked at Shang Yucheng playfully, "I think it's strange that Inspector Shu is rightβ€”why are you so unkind to me?" ”

Shu Qiang couldn't help but get annoyed when he heard this, "Ye Shen! ”

"Okay, why are you arguing?" Shang Yucheng said with a frown.

Ye Shen looked at Shu Qiang proudly and smiled triumphantly.

"Ye Shen." Shang Yucheng turned his head to look at him, "If you are like this, you are afraid that the world will not talk nonsense, and you don't have to talk about any cooperation." Mr. Shu has always been my most reliable helper, don't use the set of tyrannical and domineering outside on my people. ”

Ye Shen rolled his eyes and looked at the ceiling, and snorted coldly in reply.

"Mr. Shu, please be seated." Shang Yucheng said to Shu Qiang kindly.

Shu Qiang saw that Shang Yucheng was speaking for him, so he couldn't say anything, so he had to sit down according to his words.

Shang Yucheng turned his head to look at Ye Shen again, "You just said that you don't need to investigate the witness, do you already know his details?" ”

Ye Shen saw that when he got down to business, it was not good to take Qiao again, so he said with a straight face, "This case may be an opportunity to hold Lu Jingpeng's life, and it may also be an opportunity for Lu Jingpeng to catch our pigtails, I have been careful from the beginning and have been paying attention to the progress of the case." I have my eyeliner at the police station, and yesterday I got the news that the police station had gotten a tip and found a key witness. ”

Ye Shen took a sip of tea before continuing, "This witness was a resident who lived next door to Wu Hong at the time, and according to him, Wu Hong was passively living in the hotel, and there was more than one male escort in the same room. ”

Shang Yucheng frowned and looked at Ye Shen, "So, this witness has told a lot of accurate information?" ”

Ye Shen looked at Shang Yucheng and smiled embarrassedly, "I won't tell you, what this witness said is completely true." ”

Shang Yucheng shook his head helplessly, "Mr. Ye, since you have been following the progress of the investigation of the case, why did you let the police find such a witness?" She frowned, "If this witness testifies against the kidnappers and the police find you, how do you explain it?" ”

Ye Shen smiled and blinked, "What, you're worried about me?" ”

Shang Yucheng was stunned for a moment, and then sneered, "It seems that there is a deep misunderstanding between me and Mr. Ye." If Mr. Ye had been imprisoned for this, Mr. Ye would not have been unable to withstand the torture and tell the police about the little interaction between me and Wu Hong, right? ”

"It turns out that Miss Shang is afraid that she will die before she can be born-" Ye Shen patted his heart, "I almost misunderstood that Miss Shang was worried about my safety." ”

"Now that the misunderstanding has been clarified, Mr. Ye might as well tell me about your plans." Shu Qiang said coldly.

Ye Shen nodded, "I'm about to get to the key point." He looked at the two people in front of him, "There were two people who were monitoring Wu Hong at that time, and these two people took turns to monitor Wu Hong closely, when one of them was working, where did the other go?" ”

Shu Qiang thought for a moment and blurted out, "The other one is in the next room - that guest is your person?" ”

Ye Shen smiled and nodded.

"So, that so-called informant is also your arrangement?" Shang Yucheng asked, she was puzzled, "Why are you doing this?" ”

Ye Shen looked at her, "Wu Hong died suddenly in the process of being held hostage, and normal inference must have thought that her death was committed by the hijackers." This is where the killer is clever and where he only shows his flaws - what if the hijacker becomes a witness? ”

Shang Yucheng thought about it, but still frowned, "This is too risky. ”

"If the murderer is really instigated by Lu Jingpeng, it proves that Lu Jingpeng's motive for killing people is very strong. If Lu Jingpeng did this in order to cover up the Su Jingyao case five years ago, then your appearance by his side is the biggest adventure. Ye Shen smiled, "Aren't you doing the same yet?" ”

Shang Yucheng was speechless, so he had to ignore it and continue to ask, "Then what are you going to do?" ”

Ye Shen shook his head, "It's up to you next." ”

Shang Yucheng looked at him suspiciously, "What do you mean?" ”

Ye Shen smiled slightly, "Lead the snake out of the hole." ”
