Chapter 154. Case 19: Surprise interrogation

I wondered why he was calling me so late, and I thought our conversation was over and I was getting the results I wanted. However, out of politeness, I still answered the phone, omitting some unnecessary greetings on the phone, and the reporter asked me directly to the point, now I am looking for that man, is it because I have obtained some new evidence, and he asked me if there is a chance for him to continue to do a follow-up report or something.

Although this is his job, I also know that behind any news clue, there is actually a cold truth. I shouldn't have caused trouble for myself, but I didn't know what to do, I actually replied to Reporter Ran, if you want to follow up, please wait for me to grasp the matter tomorrow and call you, as for your reporting method, I think you will have a conclusion at that time.

I don't know if he didn't understand what I meant, and I didn't quite understand why I had to take the initiative to invite him to follow up on the report. Maybe it's my subconscious that I have long judged the good and evil in this matter, and it seems that the good and evil are a little bigger, but I also hope that through such media, the truth of the matter will be exposed, and those who do wrong things should be punished.

After hanging up the phone, I turned off the phone directly, and went to bed after a simple wash all the way home, Sister Cai saw that I didn't seem to be in a good mood, so I asked me if I had encountered any difficulties, I shook my head, and then told her that I and Hu Zongren will continue to be busy tomorrow, at least tomorrow day, it is possible that we will be very temperamental to do something, but I don't know if I should do this. Sister Cai has always only known a rough idea of what I do, after all, we are completely people from the two worlds here, and she has given me the greatest understanding and support for my work, which is enough for me. So when I told her that, she didn't delve into what I was talking about, but just told me lightly, as long as you think it's the right thing to do, then you can do it, I believe in you as a person, not the way you do things. I know that you have your own attitude, after so many years, when have you changed.

After saying that, Sister Cai turned off the light, and then hugged me sideways, and slept by herself as if nothing happened. On the contrary, I felt a little nostalgic because of her words, and stayed in bed for a long time before falling asleep.

When I woke up early the next morning, I turned on the phone and found that Hu Zongren had sent me a message, and at least half of the 100 words of the message were swear words scolding me, probably because he called me after I turned off the phone and couldn't find anyone to do it. I called Hu Zongren back, and he asked me when I would go over, because Lao Feng gave me the man's phone, and Hu Zongren didn't know what to do. I said to Hu Zongren, otherwise, I'll call the man first, see where he is at the moment, if it's on your side, I'll come and pick you up, and if it's on my side, you can take a taxi to me. I live in Jiangbei, Hu Zongren lives on the south bank, and there are two rivers between the two of us, so we usually make this appointment.

After breakfast I went out onto the balcony and called the man while I smoked. I had thought about how I could make sure I got this man out. After what happened, I believe he will become more cautious, think about it, and think that he can only do it by pretending to be a police officer. This is not the first time we have impersonated police officers, and although I know that it is illegal, I still have to do it when it is difficult.

I called the man and said that I was a police officer of the detachment of a certain district, and we have some new clues about your case before, and we need you to explain the situation again. Although I could tell from the phone that he was not very reluctant, there was no way, no matter how powerful he was, he wouldn't dare to go against the government. He asked me if I was coming to the team, and I said no, in order not to make you feel that nervous, let's make an appointment at the teahouse. I asked him, have you moved recently? He said yes, are you spying on me? In fact, I just used this way to deceive his current location, and in this way, I even knew that he chose to move because of the original incident. So I snorted and said, I told you a long time ago, if your phone address changes, you must let us know, and you don't have to report to us after three years.

The man stopped talking, and only told me after a while that he lived near Liyuchi, Jiangbei District, and was currently renting a house. I said okay, since it's not far away, let's make an appointment until 10:30 a.m., meet at the teahouse near Liyuchi, and I said I'll go and book a seat first, and then call you. After hanging up the phone, I looked at the time, and it was less than an hour before 10:30, so I called Hu Zongren and told him to rush to Liyuchi, where I would find a teahouse and wait for them.

The carp pond is so close to my house that I don't even have to drive. However, I didn't swagger enough to put on my fake police uniform, but slowly packed up, and I went out. I know this area too well, I grew up here, the road has widened a lot, and the neighbors on the side of the street are scattered and dead, and the people I knew in my early years have now become retired old men and old ladies. I am also a frequent visitor to the teahouse in this neighborhood, and as an old factory in the past, it is so much to my liking to talk about things here. I found a teahouse where I was a regular customer, and the owner knew me and knew what I did. I told the boss that we would talk about business later, and it would be inconvenient for others to hear it, so you can find us a private room in the corner. The boss immediately understood, and soon took me to a relatively secluded private room with a linen table, and when the door was closed, I could barely hear the sound outside. He asked me what kind of tea I was drinking, and I said you can get me a glass of water first, and I'll order it when the meeting arrives.

Then I called the man, the area around Liyuchi belongs to the factory area where my parents worked in the early years, and most of them are old houses, since this man said that he rented a house here, then he must have been a little overwhelmed by the issue of compensation, maybe I'll see it later, it's not as glamorous as in last night's news photos. After waiting for more than ten minutes, the man came, pushed open the door and saw that I was a young man, with long hair, so he began to show suspicious eyes, he was really not as glamorous as in that photo, the whole person looked dark and thin, and the years of this year were probably not so good for him. I asked him to sit down and asked him what he was drinking, and I said I had a colleague coming over later, so let's talk first.

After saying that, I called Hu Zongren and asked him where he had gone, and he said that it would take about ten minutes to arrive, if there was no traffic jam. So I ordered tea with the man and chatted with each other. I don't know if my status as a "policeman" is causing him some stress, and he looks a little nervous. I told him that I hadn't been transferred to this detachment when I made a record of your original case, so now that your case has been handed over to me, I need you to re-explain the situation according to the original description, so that we can also compare whether you concealed the situation at the beginning.

Then I smiled and said to him, we are also routine, you don't have to be nervous, relax. The man asked me a little bit like pins and needles, so where do you want me to start? I said, you should first talk about the relationship between you and the two deceased. After saying that, I took out my phone and pretended to turn on the tape recorder. He hesitated for a while and said, we are lovers, we have been dating for three years, and that child is the illegitimate child of me and her. It seems that I guessed correctly, and I then asked her, you tell me the woman's name and the child's name. I'm doing this because I'm going to send my soul anyway, and it's much easier to have a name, at least I can say yes. So the man told me the names of the woman and the child, the woman's surname was Zhang, but the child's surname was also Zhang.

So this makes me a little bit confused, although many families are very open now, and it is very normal for children to follow their mother's surname, but the problem is that I know that this child is an illegitimate child, and this kind of surname with the mother makes me puzzled. So I asked the man, why don't you have your surname? He was a little ashamed and said, "Officer, don't embarrass me, you know that my situation is special." I said to him very seriously, please answer my question. He shook his head and said with a distressed face, because I am a person with a wife, in order to avoid some problems, I let the child take his mother's surname at the beginning. I hesitated for a moment and then asked him, so you mean, you had a wife at the time, but you were out there with this woman surnamed Zhang, right? The man nodded, then lowered his head.

Usually everyone thinks that the junior destroys other people's families and is a hateful person, but this Ms. Zhang appeared in someone else's marriage, she is also a junior character, and even conceived each other's children, but in the end, the mother and son ended up with a tragic end, who is the real pitiful person? Who is the real hate? The more I look at this man, the more disgusting I feel. So I suppressed the fire and asked him, how did you find out that she was missing the day you called the police? The man said that he didn't find out, but received a text message, which was sent by Ms. Zhang, and the content of the text message was written, "I hate you, since you refuse to stay, then I will leave." Then I couldn't get through on the phone, I felt that this sentence was a bit too decisive, and I was a little worried before calling the police, but the police couldn't find anyone, not even the child, and when I found it again, it was already two sentences.

"Since you won't stay, then I'll go." This sentence is very similar to the sentence in Cape Seven, "Stay, or I'll go with you." It's just that the direction is completely opposite, so Ms. Zhang should be very desperate when she said this. So I asked the man, what happened to the two of you before that?

The man looked a little remorseful and lowered his head again.
