Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Lost City

When I saw the security guard Bai Siwen pretending to be crazy and stupid in the interrogation room, I knew what it means to have a lot of good things.

Behind the mirror, before Shi Ling and I sat on the stool, this Bai Siwen was crying in front of the police officers.

"Comrade Public Security! Ouch! I was wronged! I was wronged! I! I was just fascinated by a ghost for a while, and I wanted to send a sum of money back to my hometown to build a two-story house and marry a wife...... I, I'm really wronged! ”

Conversations that break through the hearts and minds usually start with a homely conversation.

"TV, computer, ....... And the line, how did you get it? ”

"There was already one in the room."

"Do you really live in a surveillance room? Got permission from the property? ”

"Of course not."

"Isn't that illegal?"

"Comrade policeman, are you going to arrest me? It just saved me money for room and board. You don't know what kind of life we poor people live in the Imperial City, that's a penny broken in half......" Bai Siwen began to complain.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ No, spare you. ”

Yu Zujia sighed and sat down on the low table. You Yimo also sat next to him. Behind the mirror, Shi Lingren hummed and poured the barley tea from the thermos cup, and at the same time I opened the bag of jelly.

Saturday, the last day of February.

The activity of the spring rain seems to have stopped, and it has been cloudless and sunny since the morning. The morning forecast is "sunny and temperatures will reach the level of late February". Only this time the forecast was accurate.

"Please drink."

Shi Lingren smiled and put down the cup. I silently picked it up, took a sip, and wiped my sweat. At the same time, he spoke dryly.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Thank you for yesterday's events. Helped a lot. ”

"No...... Guest...... Gas. ”

Shi Lingren's answer was not at all motivated.

An hour ago, under the eyes of the task force, Yu Zujia immediately picked up his mobile phone and said, "I'm Yu Zujia!" Please speak if you receive it! ”

On the other end of the mobile phone, it is the good news reported by the capital traffic police brigade! They found Bai Siwen, the security guard who stole the closed-circuit video of the scene of Liu Yaoyong's case, at the bus passenger station! Seeing that in the compound of the Municipal Bureau, one by one the teams put the warning lights on the roof of the car, and the car drove towards the passenger station at high speed.

At that time, Shi Ling and I both smiled at each other, and then our eyes turned away again. Although I don't want to admit it, but after a kiss from the General Hospital of the Military Region, our relationship changed.

Before this, Shi Ling and I were employers and mercenaries, leaders and facilitators, and we were barely friends. But now, friends are above, lovers are not enough?

Regardless of the fact that we've only known each other for less than a month, I'm not ready to start a new relationship.

Because of Gao Qiuwu, it hurt me too deeply.

Let's solve the case first, at least we know that finding this Bai Siwen is equivalent to pulling out the fog of Liu Yaoyong's case.

It's a pity that this Bai Sven looks very slippery.

Knocking on the table, Yu Zujia was a little impatient, he cleared his throat and shouted:

"That's it! Come on! Don't talk about it here! Tell me what happened! ”

"Crime?! Comrade Public Security! I didn't kill people and set fires! I, I am a good citizen of the first class, O me! I didn't just sell that video to someone else in a moment of greed, I really didn't do anything wrong! I have an 80-year-old mother, a wife and children......"

Looking at Bai Siwen in front of me, I really couldn't cry or laugh. So at the same time, Shi Lingren and I asked almost in unison: "Let him get to the point!" ”

In the interrogation room, Sister Xiao Mo coughed dryly and asked:

"Bai Siwen, don't be so forgetful when you speak! Didn't you just talk about sending money home to build a house and marry a wife? My wife has a child before she gets it! ”

"I ...... I? Yu Zujia also simply stood up, he crossed his hands in front of his chest, stared at Bai Siwen with his eyes, and asked him seriously,

"Let's talk about it! Who bought the video you took away? ”

Bai Siwen sat down on the floor in a dejected manner, and said with a long sigh,

"Hey! Confused! I'm so confused! I'm selling the video! But I really don't know who to sell it to! ”

"Boom!" Yu Zujia slapped the table hard, and he angrily pointed at Bai Siwen and shouted,

"What do you say? Bai Siwen, when do you still want to deny it or not confess! I see that you kid really doesn't want to fight for leniency for you! ”

But suddenly, a bright light flashed through my mind.

It's a burst of intense dizziness. It made me almost fall to my knees, but I held back.

That's what Shi Ling saidβ€”my talent. It's amazing, or maybe it's because of the tension in the interrogation room, and the amount of emotion is both numerous and intense. People's thoughts are flowing everywhere, and I am aware of the 'superfluous things'.

Or maybe it was because I had never been exposed to such strong feelings before I met the man next to me. Because of this, he saw that I had special abilities.

As soon as I looked up, I met the eyes of the Shiling people, and I quickly found a tacit understanding there.

At this time, on the other side of the mirror, Yu Zujia's expression was very solemn. And the solemnity under Sister Xiaomo's grinning expression is in her heart, showing her determination.

But what I feel in this Bai Siwen's mood is a little helpless. At first, I judged people by their appearance, thinking that this security guard, who was always dull-looking, was a mediocre person, but I realized that this seemingly mediocre and slippery security guard had the same vast world as us hiding in his head. Although in the eyes of the people around him, he is just a small animal that makes a living at the feet of the powerful.

The two police officers in the interrogation room were obviously also aware of subtle emotions.

Sister Xiao Mo poured a cup of hot water, slowly walked up to Bai Siwen and handed him the cup, and asked in a calm tone as much as possible,

"If you have any troubles, just say it! How do you not say that we know that you are wronged? ”

As I expected, Bai Siwen calmed down after taking a sip of water, and slowly explained the ins and outs of the matter......

―Let's save the world by "pretending to be a ghost", please collect and vote, share to QQ and WeChat groups, and share the circle of friends to earn points―

"I was on duty the night of the crime. However, I did not do my duty to do my duty, and I fell asleep on the sofa in the duty room in the second half of the night. I don't blame me, after the daytime jumping incident, your police cars came and went, and the nearby communities were alarmed.

These people only knew when they saw the public security that there was a death and a big incident. Even the residents who were busy dealing with inquiries up and down were killed...... Comrade policeman, I just said casually, don't take it to heart......

However, I had just taken a nap when I heard the phone on duty ring. I woke up in shock, thinking that it wasn't the black-hearted security manager who called to check on the post again! ”

"Hey!" The sleepy-eyed Bai Sven picked up the phone.

"Do you want to get rich?" The other person's voice is somewhat distorted.

"The voice I heard wasn't our security manager, it was a very deep voice, indistinguishable from male and female. At first, I thought that someone was so immoral and looking for me to be happy in the middle of the night......"

Who knows, the man wasn't joking. And he went on to ask me,

"I came up with 5,000 yuan to buy a CCTV recording of your morning shift."

At the time, I still thought the guy was joking, so I simply joked with him,

"It's only 5,000 yuan! That's too little! At least 50,000 yuan! ”

But unexpectedly, the man agreed without thinking about it, and he could hear that he was in a hurry, as if he was more energetic. He went on to say,

"Good! You now take out the box of videos from the wee hours of this morning to the present. Three minutes later, you throw it into a tree hole under the third street tree in front of the neighborhood. The money is in the trash can next to the third street tree, and you take it and go! ”

I could tell that the man was very serious, and he didn't say anything superfluous at all.

"Comrade policeman, my monthly salary is less than 800 yuan, and I can't save money in a place like the capital. 50,000 yuan is almost the money I have for four years of part-time work. My mother always urged me to go home and beg for a daughter-in-law, so I ...... That's how I sold the video!

As the saying goes: A good man doesn't suffer losses, and after I got the money, I immediately packed my bags and went back to my hometown. I was reluctant to spend the 50,000 yuan, so I booked a cheap late ticket! This, that's for you to arrest.

"So when you sold that video recording, you didn't even contact the person who called you?"

"No! I actually got 50,000 yuan in the trash can, and I threw the video into the hollow under the third street tree. ”

Maybe it's because he's too happy and happy to be able to control himself, Bai Siwen's emotions embellished with memories flow happily. The scenery reproduced in my mind was covered with a faint golden veil, a hazy golden pink.

"I'm not stupid! I know that the man was so anxious to pay 50,000 yuan to buy my video, he must have done something unseemly. What if something happens to me in the future? So before I went to buy the video, I did a quick look at it on my computer! ”

"What do you see?"

"Bai Sven, repeat what you just said you saw when you watched the quick play."

As soon as I heard this, inside and outside the interrogation room, Yu Zujia and You Yimo, Shi Lingren and I all stood up and asked.

"I've watched the video back and forth twice. When I watched the video for the second time, I watched it in slow motion for a while. It's a pity that there is nothing suspicious about it. ”

I saw Sister Xiao Mo put down the pen in her hand to make a record, and looked at Yu Zujia silently. Needless to say, they also knew that all the excitement they had when they found Bai Siwen today had all flown out of the Nine Nights Cloud at this moment.

Could it be that the clue is broken here again?

My heart moved, and I called into the microphone: "Sister Xiaomo, ask him if he has seen anything suspicious during the day, no, a strange person passing by the street tree!" ”

The other party was able to find Bai Siwen after the incident, and knew about the tree hole under the street tree, apparently having been to the neighborhood more than once. Shi Ling took one look at me and walked out.

Sister Xiao Mo obviously thought of it and repeated my question.

Bai Siwen paused slightly, he tilted his head sideways and probably recalled the scene of the day, "You reminded me, there is indeed a strange man wandering around"!

A man?

We look at each other - why is there only one man, not a woman?

Bai Siwen continued: "That person is about forty years old, he is dressed in a suit, we are the most particular about eyesight in this industry, that person should be a big man who usually hugs back and forth, but not only is he alone, but he is also preoccupied, and he has walked back several times. ”

What is the way back, maybe the murderer is stepping on the point!

"Did you see his features clearly?" Yu Zujia concentrated, and everyone pricked up their ears.

"Don't say it, that man looks quite human, that majestic bearing......" Bai Siwen pondered, my talent told me that he actually remembered. It's just that because his memory is too large and complicated, like a desert maze, he can't find out where the secret door to this memory is for a while. At this moment, several secret doors had been opened and closed in his mind, and too many of them had been opened and forgotten to close, and he didn't even realize that he had pulled out the important secret doors that directly reached this memory.

Such are the limitations of the average person. And my talent allowed me to follow the clues to get out of the maze, but I still need the confirmation of Bethwin himself.

At this time, Shi Lingren walked into the interrogation room, he handed Bai Siwen a photo, and then asked:

"Bai Siwen, do you look like the other party is like this person in the photo?"

Bai Siwen took the photo and looked at it, and immediately kept nodding his head like a chicken in Zhuomi, and pointed to the photo excitedly and said,

"That's right! It's him, it's him! That's right, it's the guy in the photo. ”

When I heard this, my heart seemed to be blocked by something, but I still reluctantly walked over and took the picture and looked at it. At this time, Yu Zujia also ran over, and the sure result also made him like a flat eggplant. A word woke up the person in the dream, and Shi Lingren also thought of the answer I thought, and thought deeper.

We finally know why someone would pay a lot of money to buy that "worthless" video from Bai Sven. The real value of that video is that it tells us that this is not a truth that is not to be concealed.

Because, the photo that was given to Bai Siwen for confirmation was none other than Liu Yaoyong's father, Liu Zhenzhen, who died.

The father went to the place where his son happened to take a look, it was a matter of course, and it was natural that he was troubled, and as for his behavior, it was not illegal, not to mention that the Liu family had a big business, and some had the money to hire a lawyer!

...... "The atmosphere in this room is really bad. ”

"Hey! And so it is again! I thought I could find out the truth soon, but who knows...... Tiger poison does not eat children, if it is Liu Zhenzhen who killed his own son, public opinion will knock us to the ground and then step on 10,000 feet! Think about it, after the prisoner killed Liu Yaoyong, it is likely that he was looking for a needle in a haystack to find witnesses, but it is impossible for him to know where the surveillance video is his target. Then he found Bai Siwen, which was already a small probability event of one in a thousand, not to mention that he had enough time to confirm the image in the video! It's all useless! ”

Yu Zujia, who was depressed, couldn't help but sigh. I stared closely at the photo of Liu Zhenzhen, constantly thinking back to what Bai Siwen had just said.

"You're too naΓ―ve, Captain Yu, you can't understand such an elegant taste." The yawning Shiling man shook his head. "Eliminating all possibilities and discovering the only most unlikely truth is the joy of solving a crime! And," he held up his phone, "I just found out that someone made a big news, related to the Liu family!" ”

We took turns looking at the page titles on his smartphone.

"Ahh So now do you want to take a look? The appliances in the bureau are very complete. ”

Shi Lingren pointed with his chin to the black ultra-thin TV in the interrogation room. "I have a hunch that someone is urging us to hurry up!"
