Chapter 35 Private Investigator (1)
"Ms. Fang, could you please tell us the contact information of the private detective you hired?" Sun Liang asked.
He instinctively felt that this private detective should know much more than Fang Yuan did. However, in order to maintain balance, he didn't.
"Why?" Fang Yuan asked warily.
"Oh, what you told us is second-hand information after all. We want to know some further details from him. For example, when, where, who, what happened..." Sun Liang.
"Okay." Fang Yuan felt there was no point in refutation, so he tore off a piece of sticky paper and wrote down the private detective's name and contact number on it:
Hong Tu, mobile phone: xxxxx……
After saying goodbye to Fang Yuan, Sun Liang saw that it was still early, so he walked out of the luxurious private garden and asked a policeman to contact Hong Tu.
After a while, the call was connected. Police:
"I have an investigation and I'd like to ask for your help." Hong Tu agreed without hesitation.
They agreed to meet at a teahouse called "Waiting for You" at 11 o'clock.
This teahouse is located in the heart of Huacheng, so it's quite expensive to drink tea there. However, the ambiance is quite elegant. Sun Liang once attended a class reunion at this teahouse.
It was probably because Hong Tu was closer to there. When Sun Liang and the others rushed to the teahouse and pushed open the door, they saw Hong Tu sitting not far in front.
Seeing that there were three policemen looking for him, Hong Tu was a little scared.
"Your name is Hong Tu, right?" Three policemen sat opposite Hong Tu.
"I am..." Hong Tu trembled violently.
Hong Tu is a typical middle-aged fat man.
Round face, chubby.
The round body was tightly wrapped in a cashmere sweater that made it look narrow.
The round nose tip is all flesh from the nostrils to the root.
Round hands, a pair of plump hands placed on the table, only flesh can be seen but no bones...
Hong Tu seemed a little nervous.
After all, the work of a "private detective" is something that walks on the edge of the law. If the police are too strict with you, the fine will be no small matter.
"Comrade police officer, I am a reporter for a newspaper. I do this job as a hobby out of my anger at the current ill phenomena in society." He quickly explained.
"Don't be nervous. We're not looking for you today for this matter." Sun Liang.
"We would like you to tell us in detail about Fang Yuan's request to investigate Lina's whereabouts." Sun Liang.
"Oh, that's no problem. I promise to tell you everything I know."
Fatty Hong Tu's eyes finally stopped blinking...
The two hands no longer have to toss back and forth laboriously...
It can be seen that Sun Liang's words made him put his mind at ease.
"Comrade police, let me be honest with you. The reason why I do this in my spare time was because of my wife." Hong Tu.
"We journalists are busy outside all day and night and rarely go home. So she cheated on me and got together with a rich man." Hong Tu.
While Cheng Hong was talking, Sun Liang pressed the reminder button and asked the waiter who came over for a pot of Tieguanyin tea and four cups.
While making and pouring tea, Hong Tu continued to talk non-stop.
"I don't know when it started, but every time I go home, she often loses her temper with me and picks on me for no reason. To put it bluntly, she just dislikes me..." Hong Tu said this and took a sip of tea.
"Am I not a journalist? What does a journalist do? Isn't the job of a journalist to explore and track down the essence of things? So, I started tracking my wife's whereabouts. I also managed to find her mobile phone call records, QQ chat records, and WeChat Moments interaction records... Through various clues, I successfully found the solid evidence of her cheating with that man! There are photos, recordings, videos, and social media contact records..." Hong Tu said proudly.
"It's better not to have a wife like this. No matter what, she got the retribution she deserved during the divorce..." After saying that, Hong Tu seemed particularly relieved.
"After that, I started to take on this kind of work slowly. I helped vulnerable groups with family problems and did some things to help them defend their legitimate rights and interests." Hong Tu became more and more proud and went off topic.
"You should tell me more about following Lina." Sun Liang asked.
"Okay, comrade police officer, I got off topic when I mentioned high-chested girls. Please forgive me. Now, let me talk to you about this Lina in detail." Hong Tu. He had squinty eyes, and whether looking from a distance or close up, they were just slits. But his eyes were very active.
It turned out that since receiving Fang Yuan's instructions, he had started following the news 24 hours a day. As a reporter, his job was to capture news everywhere, so it was normal for him to be away from work 24 hours a day.
"I discovered that Lina is a shrewd person. Her daily job is to flirt with Mr. Lao Qiao, eat, play, and sleep. She is like a snake wrapped around Mr. Lao Qiao. So I secretly took photos of her having an affair with Mr. Lao Qiao. Among them, there are photos of them going into a five-star hotel, flirting in a coffee shop, and being ambiguous in the car." Hong Tu.
"I quickly completed the task assigned by Ms. Fang Yuan. She used the photos I took for her to make it impossible for Lina to stay in this company, and the plan to drive Lina away was achieved." Hong Tu.
"So, is the matter completely resolved?" Sun Liang asked.
"That's not the case at all." Hong Tu.
"Soon I discovered that she had repeated her old tricks and was once again involved with President Lao Qiao. Not only that, she was also involved with President Lao Qiao's son... When I wanted to report this to Ms. Fang Yuan, I unexpectedly received instructions from President Lao Qiao, asking me to show mercy and not to go too far. So, when I reported the situation to Ms. Fang Yuan, I concealed the fact that President Lao Qiao was having an affair with Lina again, and only expressed my concern for her son." Hong Tu.
"So, Mr. Lao Qiao gave you a bribe?" Sun Liang asked.
"Comrade police, that bribe is really not worth mentioning... The key is what Mr. Lao Qiao asked someone to say. It makes me scared just thinking about it. I'm just a reporter. Why should I offend Mr. Lao Qiao for their family affairs? Ms. Fang Yuan's wish to drive Lina away has been fulfilled anyway." Hong Tu said this, indicating that he had accepted the bribe from Mr. Lao Qiao.
"But not long after, Mr. Qiao also sent someone to find me and said something harsh: if you don't want to lose your arms and legs, don't get involved in the Qiao family's affairs in the future. Otherwise, he will be rude to me!" Hong Tu said, with a frightened expression on his face.
