Chapter 44: Entering the Mansion to Investigate
Two days later, Xiao Li returned to the police station as promised and reported to Zhu Hongyuan on the investigation in recent days. Things didn't go as smoothly as expected, and although there was progress, it was not as good as expected.
So far, no suspicious characters have been found among the beggars in the east, and no suspicious signs have appeared. The temporary settlements in the east could not be investigated in depth, and it was impossible to find out the details of all the people. The east and west are two courtyards, dozens of meters apart, like two different worlds, wandering people disdain to be with beggars, beggars are unwilling to deal with people who have nothing to do with them. They each have their own lives, although the conditions are comparable, but they are clear in their hearts, and they have nothing to do with each other.
The current situation has brought great difficulties to Xiao Li's work, and he is unable to use his connections to reach the people of the west and enter the world of the west. If he breaks in rashly, he will show his differences, and it will be easy to expose his intentions.
After listening to Xiao Li's report, Zhu Hongyuan fell into deep thought. At this point, he was a little undecided, it wasn't his personal personality and work style. Because he had concerns, he didn't dare to let Xiao Li act rashly, and there was no better way to solve the current problem.
"Master, let me try." Xiao Li said.
"No way!" Zhu Hongyuan did not have any room for relaxation, and directly vetoed Xiao Li's proposal. Zhu Hongyuan understood what Xiao Li's proposal was, it was too dangerous.
"How do you know if you can't do it if you don't try? Besides, do you know how I'm going to try? Xiao Li tried to convince his teacher.
"If I say no, I can't! You are my apprentice, don't I know your mind? You want to pretend to be the informant and connect with an unknown person, right? Zhu Hongyuan is worthy of being an old criminal investigator, and he said what Xiao Li had in mind.
"You know better than anyone else, don't you?" Xiao Li stuck out his tongue and said flatteringly.
"Don't be foolish, this is extraordinary, and I will not allow any more accidents. You and Long Yang are the same, no one can do it, let me think about it again. Remember, you are not allowed to act without my orders! Zhu Hongyuan knew the danger, he couldn't let the investigator's encounter repeat, and he didn't want his apprentice to be in danger.
"Yes! Waiting for your orders at any time! "A beggar saluted a standard salute that looked awkward, but very cute.
"Get out!" Zhu Hongyuan let out a low roar. When Xiao Li went out, a smile appeared on his face. Xiao Li has studied with him for three years, and he has always been the pride of his heart because he is hardworking and studious.
Xiao Li's idea is a good way, and it is the most direct way. Only in this way can you get in touch with the enemy and understand who is secretly investigating Longyang and who is threatening Longyang's safety.
According to Long Yang, it was a black-robed man. Who is the man in the black robe? Zhu Hongyuan didn't know anything, maybe only Long Yang knew. If it was really as Long Yang said, it was those mysterious black-robed people, and Xiao Li couldn't contact it rashly, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.
On the other hand, if this approach is not adopted, how can the current investigative bottleneck be broken?
Xiao Li can't do it, Long Yang can't do it, Yu Fei can't do it, and every day is even worse, so who else is suitable? Zhu Hongyuan thought in his heart, as if he had made a certain decision.
"Long Yang, come here." Zhu Hongyuan saw Long Yang, who had just come out of the dormitory, and called him to his office.
"Oh!" Long Yang agreed, closed the door, and walked towards Zhu Hongyuan's office.
At this time, Tian Tian poked his head out from behind the door and looked at it again and again. She kept sulking because Long Yang didn't go out shopping with her, but she always remembered Long Yang in her heart and always paid attention to Long Yang's actions. In addition, there is Zhu Hongyuan, the two of them have been mysterious recently, as if there is something hidden from her. This may be a woman's intuition, but it is often accurate.
"Team Zhu, Brother Li has news?" Long Yang walked into the office and immediately closed the door. There was also Zhang Dongfang in the office, and he received a notice from Zhu Hongyuan and waited in the office.
"There's news, but it's not too good. Director Zhang, you can preside over the recent work, and I want to go back to the city. Zhu Hongyuan said to Zhang Dongfang.
"Okay, no problem." Zhu Hongyuan told Zhang Dongfang some things in advance, especially the dangerous situation in Longyang, and he knew his responsibility. But Zhu Hongyuan didn't tell him some details of the black-robed man, because Long Yang had confessed, don't tell anyone else.
"During the time I left, Long Yang can't leave the police station for half a step, and his safety will be handed over to you." Zhu Hongyuan explained again.
"Don't worry, I'll watch him and keep him from my side all the time. If he is disobedient, I will report to you at any time. Zhang Dongfang assured. He said this in his mouth, but he had no bottom in his heart. Can Long Yang listen to him? If you really listen, there will be no unauthorized actions before.
"Well, that's all. I'll leave in the afternoon, so let's get busy. After Zhu Hongyuan finished speaking, he began to sort out the materials on the table.
"Team Zhu, you're leaving, what should Brother Li do?" Waiting for Zhang Dongfang to walk out of the room, Long Yang immediately asked.
"Oh, I've already explained to Zhang, and he will report it to me after summarizing the information. I went to the city this time to report on the specific situation this time, after all, there is danger, it is better to be cautious. Zhu Hongyuan opened his notebook, carefully summarized the recent situation, and drew up an outline of the report.
"Okay, I'll wait for you to come back." Long Yang walked out of the office.
When Long Yang left, Zhu Hongyuan quickly put his notebook into the drawer, took out another notebook, and sketched something. He stopped writing and writing, and he stopped and wrote, frowning from time to time, thinking about each step.
In the afternoon, Zhu Hongyuan drove away from Fangcun Town. Before leaving, he specially called Fei and Tiantian over, and asked them to assist Director Zhang to watch Longyang together, and not to act without authorization.
Seeing Zhu Hongyuan like this, Long Yang couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart. At the important moment when Xiao Li disguised himself as an investigation, at the critical moment when he was in danger, would Zhu Hongyuan leave here because of a report? Long Yang didn't believe it.
But Zhu Hongyuan obviously drove away from here and drove out of town, wouldn't he? He won't learn from himself! Long Yang was taken aback by his thoughts. If that's the case, you're in big trouble! Long Yang was anxious to verify the idea in his heart, but he couldn't get out. Zhang Dongfang really tethered Longyang firmly to his side as he promised Zhu Hongyuan, and there was no chance to leave.
There are also Yu Fei and Tian Tian, who are always by their side, and Yu Fei even follows him when he goes to the toilet, which is stricter than guarding the prisoners. Ay! Let's just wait until the evening! Long Yang thought in his heart.
In the evening, a fortune teller came to Zheng's house. With a bell in his hand and a cloth bag on his shoulder, he entered the Zheng Mansion step by step.
"It was originally a rich house, but it became a poor family; Fame and fortune flow with the water, and there is no life to spend if you have money. Ay! "The fortune teller looked to be fifty or sixty years old, and wore a gray robe, which was old but neat. He shook one step at a time, and walked to the west as he spoke.
"Division~" At this time, Xiao Li, who was sitting in the east, was chatting with his beggar friends, and when he saw the fortune teller walking in, he suddenly stood up and stopped immediately after shouting a word.
"Li Huazi, what are you talking about?" The beggar next to him saw Xiao Li's face change and hurriedly asked. Xiao Li disguised himself as a beggar, but did not hide his surname, who will check what your surname is and what your name is here.
"Yes, a fortune teller!" Xiao Li immediately changed his words and said.
"What's so strange about fortune tellers, there are no people over there, stay for a few days and take a break and leave, we are all used to it." The beggar next to him pulled Xiao Li and continued the topic they had just had.
Xiao Li kept nodding in response, and his eyes never left the figure of the fortune teller. He didn't expect Zhu Hongyuan to come here in person and conduct reconnaissance with him. Xiao Li's makeup investigation was learned from Zhu Hongyuan, he has seen the master's skills, and he has seen his outfit.
"What's this going on?" Xiao Li's heart is bottomless, he is trying his best to find a way to connect with Zhu Hongyuan.
At this time, he saw Zhu Hongyuan turning his head to look in his direction, as if he was shaking his head unintentionally, moving his muscles and bones. Xiao Li understood that this was for him not to act rashly and listen to instructions.
Zhu Hongyuan made a cover in the police station, in order to hide Longyang and prepare for his own investigation. When Xiao Li reported to him, he thought twice and made this decision. I have the most information, I know how important it is to investigate, I know how dangerous it is, if I don't go, who is appropriate? Only you are the most suitable person. Zhu Hongyuan parked the car outside the town, put on makeup, and entered the Zheng Mansion.
Zhu Hongyuan sat on the west staircase, took out a piece of paper from his arms, tore it into strips, and then took out a pinch of tobacco leaves from the cloth bag and rolled it up. "A piece of white paper, a few pieces of tobacco, a match lit, a happy fairy!" Zhu Hongyuan seems to have completely changed as a person, and the words in his mouth are all rural vernaculars and colloquialisms, as if he has not played them.
After Zhu Hongyuan finished lighting the fire, he picked up the remaining paper, looked at the contents on it, and suddenly shouted, "Huh!" I've seen this man! Suddenly, as if he realized that he had slipped his mouth, he hurriedly folded the paper and put it in his arms. He continued to smoke his cigarette, but his expression was not as natural as before.
"Hey, I said fortune teller, what treasure do you see, still hidden in your arms." At this time, a middle-aged man who was juggling and selling showed himself asked Zhu Hongyuan.
"What's there? It's just a piece of broken paper. Zhu Hongyuan glanced at it and didn't pay much attention to it.
"You stinky fortune teller, why haven't I seen you before!" The man walked towards Zhu Hongyuan, and his words were not good.
"Recently, I've been traveling here, borrowing a treasure to live." Zhu Hongyuan snorted.
"You are a god, you are shameless, you don't know that I am the boss here, have you ever worshiped the mountain?"
"There is a stone on the mountain, the stone is the mountain, your surname is Shi?" Zhu Hongyuan continued to flicker.
"you!" The man kicked Zhu Hongyuan down. "Bring it!" He took out the paper from Zhu Hongyuan's arms.
"Fuck, you're right, Lao Tzu's surname is really Shi." As he spoke, the man unfolded the paper in his hand, looked at the contents, and read them out word by word. Missing: Male, 180 cm tall, 18 years old, handsome, medium build, black clothes and pants.
