When Fu Da returned to the bureau, Tan Yi had just finished a meeting.

He asked, "What's the situation?"

Fu Da said, "The traffic police determined that the perpetrator reversed and ran over the deceased, but he only ran over once and the person was not dead at the time. It is estimated that there will be witnesses."

Tan Yi threw him a cigarette, "The sooner the better, the better. You should investigate the scene of the accident immediately. I will meet with the factory manager Chen again." "

Okay." Fu Da went out with the cigarette in his mouth.

Tan Yi went out and nodded slightly to Li Ji who was looking at him, "You come with me."

"Okay." Li Ji jumped up, put on his backpack and followed.

Tan Yi took a look and asked, "Is it popular to carry school bags recently?"

Li Ji said, "It's popular in our bureau. I learned it from Xiao Xie, and it's really convenient."

Tan Yi moved the shoulder strap of his leather bag and asked, "Is that so?"

Li Ji looked at him suspiciously and thought, this guy wouldn't want to change his backpack too.

The two got in the police car and rushed to the machinery factory at 9:10.

There was a regular meeting on Monday.

At 9:40, the two finally waited for Chen Zhicheng, the factory director.

Chen Zhicheng was 54 years old and also wore a pair of black square-framed glasses. Because his forehead and chin were wide, he looked

a little square. He was not tall, had a slightly bulging belly, and spoke slowly. At first glance, he looked like an old fox.

Tan Yi said, "Director Chen, I'm sorry to bother you again."

Chen Zhicheng said in a neutral tone, "I didn't kill Cao Lushi. The Economic Investigation Team has already arrived. What else does Captain Tan want to do?"

Tan Yi said, "Director Chen, you may not know that Guan Wei was hit by a car this morning on the road outside their community. The traffic police said that the driver who ran the car had repeatedly run over the victim."

Chen Zhicheng was drinking tea when he choked and coughed loudly, his face flushed.

The male secretary rushed forward, patted his back and poured water for him. It took a while for him to calm down.

Tan Yi crossed his legs, "Director Chen, there are a total of seven people in the Finance Department, and two of them died in succession. What do you think about this?"

"Ahem..." Chen Zhicheng coughed a few times. "Captain Tan, you also said that Guan Wei died in a hit-and-run accident. It is not uncommon for the murderer to crush someone to death because he was afraid of compensation. It cannot be compared with the death of Section Chief Cao."

Tan Yi asked, "Director Chen, did you meet the cashier Guan last night?"

Chen Zhicheng shook his head slowly. "No, the death of Section Chief Cao brought extremely bad effects to the machinery factory. I held a small meeting with several factory directors to study countermeasures, and then went home. She was just a small cashier. I saw what she did. "

Tan Yi looked at him scrutinizingly, "Director Chen, I remind you that giving a false confession to the police will not do you any good."

Chen Zhicheng looked at him calmly, "You know there is no benefit, why should I give a false confession? I reiterate that I have nothing to do with the death of Section Chief Cao and Cashier Guan."

At this point, his mobile phone rang loudly, and he perked up when he saw the number, "You two, I have important matters to attend to, so I'll excuse myself first. You can ask my secretary if you have any questions."

He winked at the secretary and left the office first.

The male secretary smiled and said, "Yes, I am responsible for Director Chen's daily affairs. You can ask me."

Li Ji asked, "Did Director Chen meet Guan Wei last night?"

The male secretary said, "I really don't know. I left after arranging the meeting."

Li Ji asked again, "How much do you know about the relationship between Guan the cashier and Director Chen?"

The male secretary hesitated for a moment, and he touched his neck subconsciously. "I am a dull and obedient person. I usually do whatever the leader tells me to do. Moreover, I don't have a good relationship with people in the factory. I rarely interact with other colleagues, and gossip usually doesn't reach me."

Li Ji teased, "Is this the legendary valuing the superiors and not the inferiors?"

The male secretary glared at him.

Tan Yi stood up, "Secretary Wei, please inform Director Chen that it is best not to arrange a business trip in the near future, in case our police ask questions at any time."

"This... okay." The male secretary was shocked, but had to agree.

...

The two returned to the car.

Li Ji said: "This secretary can't see the situation clearly, but it doesn't matter. When the time comes, we will go to jail together and continue to be the grandson of the surname Chen in prison."

Tan Yi lit a cigarette, "He can't do anything about a grasshopper on a string. Let's go, let's go to Marriott."

Li Ji didn't understand why Tan Yi went to Marriott, but he did what his leader told him to do, and his execution was always good.

Before eleven o'clock, the two rushed to the front desk of the Marriott Hotel.

Tan Yi showed his ID, "Please check if Chen Zhicheng stayed here last night."

The three receptionists did not dare to neglect it. They took out the account books and checked repeatedly. After three minutes, they got the answer, "No."

Tan Yi's fingers on the marble countertop flicked twice silently, "Check Wei Xiwen again."

After another three minutes, the receptionist said, "Sorry, still no."

Li Ji knew what Tan Yi was going to do, "Could he be in a small hotel?"

Tan Yi frowned and thought for a moment, "Are there any newly opened three-star or above hotels recently?"

A receptionist said, "Yes, yes, the chain hotel opposite is newly opened."

Another receptionist pointed diagonally opposite, "Ruyi Hotel, the one."

The lobby manager came down from the stairs and asked what was going on.

Tan Yi briefly explained the situation and said, "Please collect the accounts of Chen Zhicheng or Wei Xiwen. I will take them away when I come back."

The two thanked him and rushed to Ruyi Hotel together.

Li Ji asked, "There are so many hotels in Anhai, why did Captain Tan come here directly?"

Tan Yi said, "First of all, rabbits don't eat grass near their nests, and secondly, this place is classy enough."

"That's true." Li Ji agreed with Tan Yi on the surface, but he had some doubts in his heart - for things like adultery, isn't it better to be secretive, how dare Chen Zhicheng come to such a place openly?

His doubts were soon answered. Wei Xiwen did book a room last night.

According to the waiter's description, the person who checked in was a middle-aged man wearing black-framed glasses. Guan Wei arrived at around 21:00 and left at 4:30 in the morning.

Returning from Ruyi to Marriott, the lobby manager indeed found all the records of Wei Xiwen's room bookings. According to incomplete statistics, Chen Zhicheng came once or twice a week.

On the way back to the machinery factory, Li Ji said, "Too arrogant."

Tan Yi said, "The machinery factory has signed a hospitality agreement with Marriott, and Chen Zhicheng checked in under the name of Wei Xiwen. How arrogant is that?"

Li Ji said, "Isn't he afraid of being seen?"

Tan Yi smiled, "The higher the hotel, the lower the chance of being seen. This is the correct logic."

Li Ji thought about it and smiled embarrassedly, "I understand."

Just like him, if he hadn't been a policeman, he might never have known that Chen Zhicheng, a sanctimonious old cadre, slept with the cashier at the Marriott Hotel every week.

Different worlds have different logics.

When the two returned to the machinery factory, they happened to meet Wei Xiwen returning home at noon.

He said to Tan Yi with a fake smile: "I'm sorry, Captain Tan, our factory director went out and never came back, and I happened to be off work here."

Tan Yi said, "Please Secretary Wei, come with us back to the bureau to assist in the investigation."

Wei Xiwen's face changed, "Why, whether it's Section Chief Cao or Guan the Cashier, it has nothing to do with me."

Li Ji showed two testimonies issued by the hotel, "As far as I know, Guan the Cashier was with you last night."

Wei Xiwen almost threw away his bicycle, "I... I didn't... I..."

He subconsciously looked around, and many employees gathered not far away and looked at him, and the sweat on his forehead flowed down like a waterfall.

Tan Yi said, "Why, are you dissatisfied with the term 'assisting the investigation'?"

"No, no, no, that's not it." Wei Xiwen grabbed the handlebars tightly, "I'll send the bike back first, and then I'll go with you guys."

12:20, Municipal Bureau Inquiry Room.

Tan Yi asked questions, Li Ji took notes, and the subject was Wei Xiwen.

"What is the relationship between Guan Wei and Chen Zhicheng? Did they meet last night?"

"Maybe they met, but I don't know what their relationship is."

"Wei Xiwen, we are giving you a chance, please don't refuse a toast and then drink a penalty."

"I really don't know! The factory director always says that he wants to talk to Guan the cashier about work matters."

"Do you think Director Chen can still protect you? Can't the Economic Investigation Detachment find any problems?"

"This... I don't think so. Maybe, I mean maybe, they are lovers."

"How long?"

"Almost five years."

"Do Chen Zhicheng and Guan Wei have economic dealings?"

"I don't know about this, you have to ask..."

"Knock, knock!" Du Zhun knocked on the door and came in, "Captain Tan, the person you're waiting for is here."

Tan Yi stood up, "Secretary Wei, Chen Zhicheng is here, I hope you can seize the opportunity and don't be stubborn."

If Chen Zhicheng said it, and he didn't say it, he would be stubborn and stubborn, and he doesn't know how many years he will be sentenced to in the future.

If Chen Zhicheng didn't say it, and he said it, he would be betraying his master and joining the enemy, and he would definitely be deserted by his relatives and friends in the future.

Wei Xiwen's face was pale, and he looked at Tan Yi in doubt.

"You and Li Ji continue." Tan Yi instructed Du Zhun, and walked out without even looking at Wei Xiwen.

Chen Zhicheng was in another inquiry room.

After Tan Yi went in, he sat down on the main seat, and Ren Yaguang was replaced in charge of recording.

Chen Zhicheng frowned and sat on a chair smoking, one puff after another.

Tan Yi said, "Since Director Chen is here, why not have a talk?"

Chen Zhicheng said, "Guan Wei and I did have an improper relationship, and we did meet last night, but I didn't kill her."

"Director Chen, you can't just say that."

"Why can you just say that? She went home early in the morning to change clothes, and I stayed until dawn. The waiter testified that I had breakfast at Ruyi and left."

"Murder doesn't necessarily mean you have to do it yourself. With Director Chen's power, it shouldn't be difficult for him to hire someone to kill you."

"I can't hire a killer..." Chen Zhicheng suddenly stopped talking and put out his cigarette. "Captain Tan, I admit that I am not disciplined in relationships between men and women, but I would never do something like murder. That's all I have to say. If Captain Tan finds evidence, feel free to arrest me. Bye."

He stood up abruptly, pushed the chair behind him, and strode out of the interrogation room.

Ren Yaguang said, "You are so arrogant. Don't you think the economic investigation team can't find any problems?"

Tan Yi said, "Probably he is smoothing out relationships, raising money, and preparing to fill the hole."

"Tsk..." Ren Yaguang suddenly realized, "You won't cry until you see the coffin."

Half an hour later, Li Ji handed Wei Xiwen's transcript to Tan Yi.

Wei Xiwen took the initiative to confess that Chen Zhicheng had violated the rules by eating and drinking with public funds and traveling with public funds. As for whether there was corruption, only Chen Zhicheng, Guan Wei, and Cao Lushi knew about it, and he knew nothing about it.
