Chapter Fifty-Eight: Hold Still
The most wicked heart in the world is a difficult book to read, and it may be God's grace that is not read.
βEdgar Allan Poe
It rained for a few days, and in a blink of an eye, it was the beginning of autumn, and it was a little cool. Duan Qingwei held the umbrella and walked cautiously on the road, just now he almost slipped because of the water on the ground. He raised his eyes slightly, staring at the originally leafy trees on the side of the road that were already slightly golden, and a cool breeze blew, slowly falling a few leaves to the ground.
Ten minutes ago, Duan Qingwei received a call from Team Zhang, asking him to go to the director's office quickly.
Duan Qingwei walked into the police station, he came to the director's office, he knocked on the door, only pushed the door in, and found that there was not only the Lu Bureau alone in the office, but also Team Zhang. They saw Duan Qingwei coming in, and the eyes of both of them looked at Duan Qingwei.
"Xiao Duan, you're here." Lu Ju's voice was slightly low.
"Lu Bureau, what are you looking for me?"
"I've heard feedback from others that you have been particularly positive about Jin Fengxiu's case recently, but hasn't the results of Jin Fengxiu's case investigation come out? The deceased committed suicide, left a suicide note before death, and the autopsy report did not show any traces of homicide, are you dissatisfied with anything? β
"I ......" Duan Qingwei was a little breathless, and continued: "I just think this matter is very strange, and I want to investigate it clearly." β
"What's the oddity? The family of the deceased has no opinion on the autopsy report, do you have to complicate the case and say that the suicide is homicide, so that you are satisfied?! β
Duan Qingwei frowned tightly, and responded in a slight low voice, "...... Not. I'm just trying to get justice to the deceased. β
Team Zhang didn't dare to make a sound on the side, and the Lu Bureau sighed heavily and said, "Now that this case is over, the family of the deceased has no objections, you do your job well, so be it, you go out first." β
Duan Qingwei still had a thunderous expression, still thinking about reasoning with the Lu Bureau.
Seeing this, Team Zhang hurriedly gave Duan Qingwei a look and asked him to go out immediately. Duan Qingwei looked at Team Zhang with a solemn expression, but he could only helplessly follow Team Zhang's instructions to go out first. When he walked out, the moment he was about to close the door, he seemed to hear Team Zhang say to Lu Ju: "I'm sorry, Lu Ju, this time I will take care of Xiao Duan's ......"
Duan Qing bowed his head slightly, did not speak, just smiled softly and bitterly.
At this time, Team Zhang was walking over from the corridor with a smile, and when he saw Duan Qingwei, he greeted him with a smile on his face.
Duan Qingwei didn't say a word, and pulled Zhang Di out of here.
"Brother Duan, what's wrong with you?"
"Now you follow me to Jiangtai Group."
Zhang Di stopped with a surprised expression, "Why did you go there again?"
Duan Qingwei raised his hand impatiently and glanced at his watch, "There's no time, stop talking nonsense, come with me." β
Zhang Di was pulled out of here by Duan Qingwei with a puzzled expression.
When Duan Qingwei and Zhang Di left the police station, the sky was still raining lightly, At this time, Duan Qingwei was driving on the way to Jiangtai Group, and the car window was already blurry, Zhang Di, who was sitting in the passenger seat, looked at the raindrops that kept flowing from the window, and he suddenly remembered the first time he met Duan Qingwei, it was also a rainy day, and he reported to the police station for the first time, and he just happened to bump into Duan Qingwei drenched in the appearance of a soup chicken, but he still grabbed the suspect unyieldingly.
In the following days, Zhang Di worked with Duan Qingwei, and his impression of Duan Qingwei always seemed to feel that this person was haunted by things on weekdays, a little taciturn, focused on his own affairs, and he rarely participated in group gatherings on weekdays.
Later, when he knew some of Duan Qingwei's past, he felt that perhaps because of this, Duan Qingwei's face was more calm and vicissitudes, and he lacked some of the liveliness and noise and heartlessness that other peers should have. Zhang Di has always felt that Duan Qingwei has always lived in memories, more of a self-blame for the past, struggling but unable to do anything.
Thinking of this, Zhang Di couldn't help but look at Duan Qingwei with a distressed and resentful look.
At this time, Duan Qingwei also noticed Zhang Di's eyes, he glanced at Zhang Di, and then said expressionlessly: "Don't show me this kind of look, my sexual orientation is normal, I don't like men." β
Zhang Di couldn't cry or laugh, and explained again and again: "Please, my sexual orientation is also normal, okay?" It's a shame that I felt sorry for you just now. β
Duan Qingwei smiled helplessly and shook his head, "You feel sorry for me?" You should feel more sorry for yourself, you didn't pay me back the money you borrowed last time you asked me? β
Zhang Di's smile froze on his face for a moment, revealing an innocent smile, and the topic changed randomly, "By the way, what is the reason why we went to Jiangtai Group again this time?" β
"I always feel that Jin Fengxiu's case is inseparable from Jiangtai Group." Duan Qingwei replied.
"Brother Duan, I think you are just too nervous and anxious, and when you get old, you will be prone to stroke."
Duan Qing glanced at Zhang Di slightly, and then stopped talking.
When they arrived at Jiangtai Group, Zhang Di heard the receptionist at the front desk say, "The chairman and his party have been on a business trip for 5 days, and they haven't come back yet."
Zhang Di sat on the sofa next to him casually, pulled Duan Qingwei to the side, and said a little impatiently: "Look, Brother Duan, I'll just say that we ran for nothing again this time, besides, on the day Jin Fengxiu fell from the building, those people you suspect in your heart have alibi proofs, besides, what interests can a lonely old man threaten them?" There's no motive at all, I think you're just too anxious and nervous......"
Duan Qingwei pursed his lips tightly, although listening to what Zhang Di said seemed to make some sense, the doubts in his heart still lingered in his heart. The more Duan Qingwei thought about it, the more distressed he became, he scratched his hair, trying to calm himself down, and at this moment, he inadvertently noticed that a man in the hall not far away was leaning over the pillar outside the corridor, and the probe quietly looked at them, the expression on his face seemed to be a little speechless.
Duan Qingwei turned his head and immediately asked the reception staff in the hall where the bathroom was. Then Duan Qingwei asked Zhang Di to wait for him in the same place, he was going to go to the bathroom, and when he deliberately passed by the man who peeked at them, he noticed that the man with glasses was nervously facing away from him, not daring to look at him.
After Duan Qingwei arrived at the bathroom, he saw that there was no one in the bathroom, he hid behind the door, and he decided to take a gamble to see if the man with glasses would come to the bathroom.
Sure enough, as Duan Qingwei expected, the man with glasses was cautious, tiptoed into the bathroom, and the probe seemed to be looking for him, Duan Qingwei suddenly appeared from behind the door, grabbed the man with glasses, grabbed him and asked, "You just spied on us, what's the matter with you?" β
Obviously, the man was frightened by Duan Qingwei's sudden move, and said again and again, "I...... I didn't have ......"
Duan Qing let go of him slightly, and asked again in a calm tone, "You should have something to tell me, right?" β
The glasses man held the glasses on the bridge of his nose with his hand, licked his lips nervously, looked around cautiously from time to time, and after a long time, he said: "Officer, I noticed you several times, but every time I couldn't find a chance to get close to you, I want to tell you that this group is really not a place for people to stay, recently I know some insiders, if I say it, I guess I will be ready to flee and disappear, here is not just a superficial appearance of engaging in a legitimate industry, as far as I know, They also involve children and girls overseas...... β
At this point, a person suddenly came into the bathroom and interrupted their conversation. This man stared at them with a blank face, and it was obvious that the information to obtain intelligence had failed again.
The man with glasses seemed to feel extremely frightened when he saw the man who came in, and quickly escaped from the bathroom, while Duan Qingwei was still standing in place, looking at the man who came in, this man was dressed in a suit and leather shoes, and he was tall, more like a personal bodyguard or something.
Duan Qingwei improvised and asked with a smirk, "Is there anything wrong with you staring at me like this?" Is it difficult to see me go to the toilet? β
However, the man looked at Duan Qingwei for a while, and then walked to the cubicle.
When Duan Qingwei walked out of the bathroom and returned to the hall, he found that the glasses man who was looking for him before was gone, although he didn't get any usable information this time, but at least one thing was certain, this Jiangtai Group is really not simple behind it, and there must be a bigger secret behind it.
"Since you are in the dark, then I will not move." Duan Qingwei said to herself.
"What's not moving?" Zhang Di asked Duan Qingwei suspiciously.
Duan Qingwei then looked around, looked at the employees who came and went here for a while, so the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise slightly, and said, "It's nothing, let's wait and see anyway." β
