Chapter XIV: Intelligence Network
"No, actually, what I'm thinking is," Zhuang Youjie said after a moment's consideration, "If just the employer can rule out suspicion, has Mr. ever encountered that kind of reporter who shouted to catch a thief before?" β
After he finished speaking, he looked up at Liang Yuanque, and the emotion in the depths of his eyes that he had finally seized an opportunity to show his wisdom was so exposed.
"Ah, if you want to say that......" Liang Yuanque thought about whether he was telling the truth, or coaxing this particularly interesting young master for a short time.
But after thinking about it, he is not a child, and he is not a beautiful girl, so I have nothing to do to coax him, and it seems that I am unprofessional.
So Liang Yuanque said directly, "Don't you remember that I recognized your identity when we first met?" β
Zhuang Youjie thought about it, hey, it is true, at that time, Liang Yuanque said that he had investigated in advance.
Ah, so that's the case, Zhuang Youjie thought to himself, Mr. Liang is Mr. Liang, and he still has real skills, and he thought he had caught a loophole, but it turned out that he thought too much.
"As soon as this case comes out, I plan to find a way to go next, after all, I came to Liucheng for a serial murder case," Liang Yuanque said: "I plan to start with the Shen family first, so I quickly investigated Miss Lan's social connections, and easily found out your fiancΓ©." β
"I found out that you were studying in the provincial capital and hadn't been back for a long time, so I naturally ruled out your suspicion, and later learned that you rushed back to Liucheng after receiving the telegram, and before you and I met, I had already checked that you did come back by the train that day."
Zhuang Youjie was very surprised when he heard this, it turned out that before they ran into it, Liang Yuanque had already made so many preparations in advance?
"Then if I hadn't come to entrust you with the case, wouldn't you have prepared in vain?" He had a new puzzle.
"I'm investigating you just to find out if there is a suspicion of someone who has something to do with the deceased, even if you don't come to me, I will go to Master Shen to recommend myself." Liang Yuanque thought as he spoke, but in that case, it might not be as smooth as it is now, and he actually didn't expect this fate with Young Master Zhuang.
The encounter between people in this world is a wonderful thing in itself.
Not long after the two of them put down their chopsticks, the work of the restaurant came back to collect the lunch box, and Zhuang Youjie put the meal money in the food box and let the work take it back.
Although this is a restaurant in which his family has a stake, if you eat white food, it will make the restaurant sorry and cause people to work overtime in vain.
After lunch, Inspector Chang also came back, and Liang Yuanque flipped through the file for a while, arranged the file in the order in which the case occurred, and packed it up, and called Zhuang Youjie to go back to Shen's house.
Although there is no definite evidence to prove it, he still feels that Shen Yuelan's death is inseparable from the Shen family, and there are still too many unsolved mysteries in the Shen family, and they still need to return to the Shen family to investigate the case.
When he went back, Zhuang Youjie went to call a rickshaw, it was early afternoon, the sun was very poisonous, and after the coachman asked them about their wishes, he took a detour and took a small road with more shady places.
Walking on a different road from the morning, Liang Yuanque really had some unexpected discoveries, their car walked past a martial arts hall that looked a little deserted, and suddenly thought of a character who had been put aside by him temporarily, so he hurriedly asked Zhuang Youjie, "Young Master Zhuang, that Wang Shun of the Shen family, did he learn art in the martial arts hall here before?" β
Zhuang Youjie glanced at the martial arts hall a few times when he heard this, thought about it and said, "Although I don't know very well, it shouldn't be this one, this one is newly opened in the past few years, Wang Shun didn't have this one when he was studying art, Wang Shun should have been in another martial arts hall in Liucheng with relatively old qualifications." β
Liang Yuanque nodded after hearing this, Liucheng is not big, there are not many martial arts halls, and there are only two in Liucheng.
Wang Shun, who studied art in the martial arts hall, should have the ability to climb over the wall in the upper room, right?
learned from the concierge uncle that Wang Shun returned to his hometown because of illness some time ago, so Liang Yuanque asked Zhuang Youjie, "I have to go to Wang Shun's hometown to investigate." β
"Huh?" Zhuang Youjie was stunned for a moment, "Now?" Do you want to go by yourself or the two of us? β
Liang Yuanque rolled his eyes uncontrollably, "Young Master, I didn't leave Liucheng when I investigated you." β
The implication of his words is that detectives have their own secret connections at their disposal, but Zhuang Youjie has never dealt with a person like a detective, and he has not participated in the investigation of the case before, so he naturally does not know this.
Although Zhuang Youjie didn't understand what Liang Yuanque meant, he was embarrassed to open his mouth when he saw the other party roll his eyes, he had already realized that he was stupid.
Although he is not clever, his father once taught him that he must learn to shut up in front of things he doesn't understand, so that he won't appear to be so stupid.
Liang Yuanqi stopped the rickshaw, got out of the car and passed through the small alleys, and after turning around, Zhuang Youjie could no longer find him.
Anyway, he had been instructed to wait in place, Zhuang Youjie sat on the rickshaw with one hand on his forehead and waited for him to come back, because he had just eaten a full meal, and stayed outside in the hot air at this time, even if he and the coachman were huddled in the shade, he still couldn't help but be drowsy.
When Zhuang Youjie was in a trance, Liang Yuanque came back quietly, because he had just fallen asleep in a daze, and he didn't see where he came back from.
"Did you go to check Wang Shun?" After he got back into the car, Zhuang Youjie asked him in a daze.
Although Liang Yuanque didn't say anything when he called the parking force just now, but they only talked about Wang Shun just now, so it is not difficult to guess his actions.
Liang Yuanque was once again amused by this strange-minded young master, and followed his words, "Ang is right, the investigation has been completed." β
Zhuang Youjie listened, and whispered a few words of compliment him.
Although Liang Yuanque has rarely been accompanied by a partner on the road of handling cases for many years, he is a person who is very good at using power, especially the local forces where the case occurred, some low-level beggars or some inconspicuous peddlers and pawns will be subdued by him as quickly as possible, and often these people can be said to form a dense intelligence network in every place, which greatly facilitates Liang Yuanque's work.
Just now, Liang Yuanque went to find a group of little beggars he met two days ago, gave them some money, and asked them to go to Wang Shun's hometown.
And the same method was used to investigate Zhuang Youjie before, he happened to have handled cases in the provincial capital city where Young Master Zhuang studied, and broke into the "intelligence network" over there.
Liang Yuanque is very good at getting to know people, and can chat with people of various identities and personalities, but he rarely has a long relationship with anyone, which is obviously not that others are slowly alienating him, but that he has always chosen the people around him.
In his cognition, people in the world are divided into two kinds, those who know and those who do not know, and those who do not know nature needless to say, and those who know are divided into two kinds that can be used by him and those who can be commonly used by him, the latter is usually not much or even basically none.
Because no one can stay by his side all the time, many people who interact with him are just nodding friends who don't know when they will meet next time.
Yes? Why don't you say there are no people he knows who can't be used? This kind of person is not usually placed in the category of "knowing".
The rickshaw quickly ran back to the door of the Shen family, Zhuang Youjie got out of the car and paid the driver the fare, and just about to knock on the door, the concierge uncle heard them coming back and hurriedly opened the door to greet them.
"Oh, Young Master Zhuang, you're back, come with me to the front hall, someone from the dealer just came, and I've been waiting for you for a long time!"
