Chapter XIX Progress of the Case
After shushing for a long time, Zhang Mao saw that Wang Shun did not have much hindrance, so he immediately asked his own question.
"Uncle Wang, what about the gun you kept when you retired, can you show me?"
"The gun, that thing was taken by my grandson, and he said it was for hunting. Although Wang Shun didn't know why the other party asked, he still replied calmly.
Zhang Mao thought thoughtfully and continued to ask, "What about your grandson?"
"His name is Wang Xing, and he is probably in Chongwen Academy now. Wang Shun replied.
"Chongwen Academy? ”
Zhang Mao's brows furrowed, this Chongwen Academy was founded by Nayu Wenwei, after thirty years of development, its students have as many as tens of thousands, and many students have joined the Chifeng Army directly after graduation, which can be said to be the first academy in this pass.
With such a prestigious school, how can he fight against him as just a mounted policeman?
After saying goodbye, Zhang Mao was heavy and returned to the police station.
"Look at you, you seem to be in some way, tell me, what's going on?"
At this moment, Wang Lu was checking the information in his hand, and there was still a cup of tea on his left hand, and when he saw that his love was about to walk in, he just glanced at it and saw Zhang Mao's situation.
Zhang Mao raised his eyes and looked at Wang Lu, feeling a little apprehensive in his heart, after all, this matter involved Chongwen Academy, if he continued to investigate, he was afraid that he would offend many people, but he was not sure whether he should continue to investigate.
"You, can't you have investigated something?" Wang Lu put down the information in his hand, raised his head and asked.
Zhang Mao nodded, and Fu shook his head again, a little unable to hold his mind: "Director Wang, I want to ask you a question." Is the purpose of the police station set up by the lord to maintain social order and stability, or to investigate the truth?"
"Oh, why do you ask that?"
Wang Lu laughed, and wanted to prevaricate, but when he saw Zhang Mao's serious expression, he immediately became serious: "In my opinion, these two should go hand in hand. For us, the purpose of the pursuit of truth is to find out the hidden criminals and not give them the opportunity to continue their evil deeds. Isn't it?"
"I see!"
The gloom in Zhang Mao's eyes dissipated and became clear again.
Wang Lu smiled, probably feeling that his tongue was a little dry, so he picked up the tea next to him and continued to ask. "In that case, what are you going to do?
"Of course!"
Zhang Mao took a deep breath, and then made his own request: "It's just that I also ask Director Wang for approval to let me go to Chongwen Academy to investigate a person." ”
"Chongwen Academy, what's the matter with them?"
Wang Lu was startled, and a few drops of hot water splashed from the teacup in his hand, burning his hands with some small bubbles.
"It's true. According to my investigation, the gun used to kill people came from Wang Shun's house. Zhang Mao told the information he had gathered.
When Wang Lu heard the news, he quickly put down the teacup in his hand and asked in a low voice, "So you suspect that Wang Xing may have something to do with these murderers?"
"That's right. According to Mr. Wang Shun, Wang Xing took the gun away three days ago, saying that it was for hunting. But after that, there was a massacre of textile mills. So I suspect that even if he didn't plan the whole thing, he was just in touch with them. Zhang Mao put forward his opinion with an affirmative face.
Wang Lu also felt embarrassed, raised his head suddenly, and stared at his beloved general: "Are you sure this matter is serious?"
"It's true. There will never be any trace of forgery. Zhang Mao nodded and replied.
Wang Lu said, "Okay. Now that you're sure of it, go for it. It's just that you remember, this Chongwen Academy is not an ordinary place, you don't have to be rude, otherwise you will anger the students there, and I'm afraid that it will be completely troublesome. Got it?"
"Don't worry, Director, of course I know. ”
With a serious expression, Zhang Mao replied.
Now that he had obtained the arrest warrant, Zhang Mao immediately led a team of people to rush to the Chongwen Academy, this Chongwen Academy was not an ordinary place, he naturally had to seize the opportunity, otherwise he would not be able to catch that person.
At this time, it was noon, and Chongwen Academy had just finished class, and many students had just come out of the school and were preparing to eat.
At first glance, when they saw a team of mounted police officers approaching in the distance, they were also stunned, and they gathered around with curiosity.
For these mounted policemen wearing black military uniforms, these students are naturally quite familiar, when playing in Chang'an City, it is rare to see these patrolling mounted police, but Chongwen Academy is a quiet place, and most of the students do not ask about the world, where have they seen such a scene?
Zhang Mao was also quite nervous, according to the news he got before, he came directly to a class, and when he saw a student walking out of it in the distance, he immediately stepped forward and blocked in front of the other party.
"May I ask if you are Wang Xing?"
The person in front of him is seven feet two inches tall, much more than his peers, and Fang Zhengguo's face looks particularly upright, and he has a feeling of not being angry and arrogant.
And next to him, there were more than a dozen men and women around, and after seeing Zhang Mao coming over, they all blocked in front of Wang Xing, just because they saw the gun Zhang Mao was carrying behind him, so they had to retreat and make a way.
Wang Xing felt strange: "I am, may I ask what you are doing with me?"
"I have something important to ask you, and I ask you to come with us!" Zhang Mao took out the arrest warrant in his hand and arrived directly in front of Wang Xing.
When those students heard this, they exploded with a "boom" and shouted one after another.
"Are you mistaken? Senior Wang, he has always been very upright, and it is impossible to make a mistake. ”
"I said you, shouldn't you have been instructed to plot to assassinate your seniors? ”
"Senior. Don't go with them, or it's going to be a bad deal. ”
Hearing these words, Zhang Mao's eyebrows flashed with anger, but he just stared at Wang Xing and said, "Wang Xing, please come with us." Just looking at this scene, he could see that the person in front of him should have some influence in Chongwen Academy, otherwise there would not be these die-hard people.
Wang Xing nodded and replied, "Of course you can." As soon as he took a step, he saw everyone blocking in front of him, and said gently: "Everyone, just go to the police station, it shouldn't be a big deal." With this, everyone made a way and let Wang Xing follow Zhang Mao to the police station.
Along the way, Zhang Mao always stared at Wang Xing, trying to see some clues, but Wang Xing was calm and relaxed, and there was no change, as if the whole incident had nothing to do with him.
In this way, Zhang Mao began to doubt his judgment.
"Could it be that this matter really has nothing to do with him?"
After the group arrived at the police station, Zhang Mao also took Wang Xing into the interrogation room.
The interrogation room was a dark and narrow place, and in order to prevent the prisoners from escaping, the surrounding walls were planted with ruin-yuan grass, and even the warriors of the Danding Realm could not escape.
Sitting in it, Wang Xing obviously showed a little discomfort.
Zhang Mao looked in his eyes and asked, "Tell me, where were you a day ago?"
"This!"
Wang Xing was obviously stunned, and then asked back in a tone full of ridicule: "Sheriff, don't you suspect that I have something to do with the textile factory massacre? Seriously, I am just an ordinary person, and I am also a student of Chongwen Academy, so it can be said that I have a bright future, is it necessary to do such a thing?"
"I'm asking you! Don't go any further, tell me where you were at midnight the day before?" Zhang Mao's expression was cold, and he shouted in a low voice.
Wang Xing looked disdainful, and he knew that he was in it now, and it was difficult to refuse.
"Yesterday, I went on an outing with my classmates to Lishan, and because it was too late, I stayed overnight. Sir, although I also have a bit of martial arts, I can't run around the clock, just to kill a few irrelevant people. Wang Xing continued to argue, looking at him quite relaxed, and he didn't take it seriously at all.
Zhang Mao turned a blind eye and continued to ask, "How many people are there?"
At this moment, he has entered the work, and will never be shaken by any changes in the outside world.
"Four or five. ”
"Four or five?"
"Well, five people, including me. ”
"Tell me, their names and genders!"
"Sheriff. Why do you even ask this question?"
Wang Xing felt a little dissatisfied, and he even doubted that everything about himself would be asked by this group of guys.
Zhang Mao's expression turned cold, and he asked in a low voice, "Tell me, their names!"
Wang Xing was helpless, so he had to reply: "Okay." There are about two men and two women, two men, one is called Xie Jin, the other is called Wang Feng, and the other two women are named Li Yali and the other is Zhu Biluan. In that case, it's okay. ”
"And where did you go?"
"This, we first went to the Holy Spirit Lake for a while, and then ran to Huaqing Pond. After playing in Huaqing Pond, I hunted nearby, but my skills were not very good, so I only hunted a few pheasants, and then cooked the pheasants on the spot and ate them. It was already evening, so I took a break in the local area. On the second day, I went back to the school, and that's what happened after that. ”
"Is that so?"
Zhang Mao was thoughtful, his slightly narrowed eyes were a little pensive, but he was considering how true and how false the other party's words were.
"In that case, can you tell me what weapon you use for hunting?"
"What weapon?"
Wang Xing was obviously stunned, showing a little panic, although this panic disappeared in a flash, but Zhang Mao looked at it in his eyes: "I use a bow and arrow!" Alas, I am not very familiar with this bow and arrow, otherwise how could I only hunt a few pheasants?"
"Bow and arrow?"
Zhang Mao took a deep breath and asked suddenly, "But according to my investigation, you once borrowed a gun from your grandfather, why did you give up the gun and use a bow and arrow instead?"
"This. ”
Wang Xing was a little embarrassed: "I can't hide it." I lost the gun. ”
"You should know that this is a gun, not chopsticks or bowls, and if you lose it, do you know what kind of sin it is?" Zhang Mao shouted in a low voice.
Wang Xing obviously showed a little impatience, and also retorted: "Where do I know? I originally kept this gun well, but who knew that when I first arrived in Lishan, I was transferred to another person." When I went to look for it, I found that the gun had long been lost. I was going to report to the Ministry of Defense after class, but who knew that I would encounter you!"
"Then you know. Your gun was in the midst of the textile mill massacre. ”
Zhang Mao felt more and more dignified, from Wang Xing's words, it was indeed leaky, and it seemed that he could round everything over, but out of the instinct of a front-line mounted policeman, he always felt that there was something hidden in it.
"What? How could this happen?"
Wang Xing was also taken aback, and his expression was obviously a little panicked.
Zhang Mao waved his hand and asked his subordinates to take out the gun that was left behind, and arrived in front of Wang Xing, and said, "Look at it, is this the gun you lost?"
"How is this possible?"
Wang Xing carefully identified it, especially when he saw the inscription on it, his forehead was also wrinkled, and he hurriedly shouted: "Sheriff." Are you getting something wrong, I really didn't do anything like that. If you ask those of my classmates, they can prove that I was indeed in Lishan last night. ”
"Maybe it's really what you say, but it doesn't rule you out suspicion. ”
Zhang Mao shook his head resolutely, and then ordered the personnel to detain Wang Xing.
Although it seems that the murderer has been caught, Zhang Mao doesn't think that the matter will be solved so easily, and there are still many doubts in it, and it is impossible for Chongwen Academy to end so simply when he sees his student being arrested.
Now he only thinks about closing the case as soon as possible, instead of letting things ferment more and more until he can't control it.
——————
Chongwen College.
"Senior Xie, come out quickly. ”
A woman hurriedly walked into the classroom and pulled Xie Jin out directly.
Xie Jin felt strange and asked in a low voice, "Zhu Biluan, what are you looking for me?"
As the premier college in Chang'an, Chongwen Academy was the first to open a mixed gender system, and because of this, the school is quite open, and I don't think there is anything wrong with the contact between men and women.
Zhu Biluan's breath was disordered, and it was easy to say clearly: "Senior Wang, Senior Wang, he was arrested." ”
"Senior Wang, do you mean Wang Xing?" Xie Jin thought for a while, and immediately understood who the other party was talking about, and the entire Chongwen Academy knew that Zhu Biluan had always had an ambiguous relationship with Wang Xing, and they were a couple.
Zhu Biluan begged bitterly: "That's right. So I also ask Senior Xie to help, can you rescue Senior Wang? He is an only son, if his grandfather finds out, he will have to kill him. And if this thing comes true, it will also become a stain on him in the future, but I am afraid that he will no longer be able to gain a foothold in this Chongwen Academy. After saying two words, two lines of tears had already fallen, and the whole person cried into tears.
Xie Jin had no choice but to respond.
"Don't you want to cry, I promise you yet?"
And that Wang Xing also has some friendship with him, of course he can't sit back and watch him be arrested like this.
